Chapter 1409: Shake the Earth Domain?

“This little beast…”

The Poison Spirit brought Jiang Yi underground, and the little beast’s single horn kept glowing. The light from its horn brought all the yellow sand worms under its control. Given the Poison Spirit’s skills, how could he have overlooked the little beast’s amazing power? Jiang Yi did not bother to hide it from him either. He nodded and said, “This is the Primitive Spiritual Treasure. It’s the one controlling the yellow sand worms.”

“Great item!”

The Poison Spirit said in astonishment, “Young Lord, you really are Young Mistress Piaopiao’s son. You could get such a remarkable demon in all of heaven and earth to follow you. Young Lord, your potential is limitless.”

Jiang Yi laughed awkwardly but did not say anything in response. His relationship with the little beast at the current moment was really not bad. However, it did not take him as its owner yet. Jiang Yi was extremely worried that the little beast would grow to a stage where it would leave Jiang Yi. After all, such a powerful, amazing beast like this would not possibly follow a person who was so much weaker than it.

He decided to deal with these things as they came in the future. For now, Jiang Yi made the little beast take fifty thousand yellow sand worms under its control and hid them all inside the Great Zen Pearl. Finally, he turned to the Poison Spirit and said, “Let’s go. We’re going back to Divine Eagle City to sort all of this out with Xuanyuan Lingyan.”

“Young Lord, can I make one request?” There was conflict in the Poison Spirit’s eyes once again. Jiang Yi scanned him from head to toe in a strange manner and then said, “Speak!”

The Poison Spirit took in several deep breaths and said, “Can you not kill Xuanyuan Lingyan? When I was being hunted down by the Demon-Killing Pavilion back then, it was Young Mistress Xuanyuan who protected me. Although I know that she wanted to use me and I have done many things for them in all these years, she did save my life after all. I owe her that much. I, the Poison Spirit, have done many harmful things in my life; but I will return the favor to those who have shown me kindness…”

“So that’s how it is!”

Jiang Yi mumbled to himself in a low voice. The Poison Spirit was his soul slave. If he tried to kill Xuanyuan Lingyan, the Poison Spirit would not be able to do anything about it. However, the Poison Spirit was now one of his friends. Jiang Yi could not bear to break his heart.

He nodded and said, “I just cannot kill her, right?”

“En-En!”

The Poison Spirit nodded. The corners of Jiang Yi’s lips twisted up in an evil smile. Without speaking more about the matter, he asked, “That’s right, Poison Spirit! It’s said that you killed an entire city and a tribe back then? Did such a thing really happen?”

“Yes!”

The Poison Spirit nodded. “However, I only killed the people of the Qin Clan. I did not kill any innocent people. Most people in the city and tribe were people from a clan related to the Qin Clan. Back then, when I was chased out of the Saint Spirit Domain, I brought my wife to Earth Emanations City and settled down in the first city we could find. We were prepared to live a quiet and low-key life. However, the City Lord’s son coveted after my beautiful wife. When I went out on a mission, he r*ped her before killing her. I came back in a rage and killed all the Qin Clan’s disciples. I did not leave any one of them behind…”

“Good job!”

Jiang Yi shouted. Immediately, he felt something amiss. The Young Master of the Qin Clan was indeed wrong, but the elderly and widows did not sin, did they?

Jiang Yi shook his head. All these things happened in the past; there was no point in discussing them any further. He patted the Poison Spirit’s shoulder and said, “Don’t worry. I will find a way to bring you back to the Phantom Race. When we get to Saint Spirit Domain, I will return your soul seed to you.”

“Many thanks to the Young Lord!”

The Poison Spirit cupped his hands gratefully. Jiang Yi wanted to return the Poison Spirit his soul seed immediately but decided to keep it for a while longer. After all, the Poison Spirit was a frightening character.

The two of them charged towards Yellow Sand City. Poison Spirit now looked like Xiao Leng. At some point in time, Jiang Yi really thought that the Poison Spirit was Xiao Leng. Secretly, he gave thanks for the Poison Spirit’s superb disguising techniques.

The thought of Xiao Leng caused Jiang Yi to immediately retrieve the Chaos Essence Pearl which the Poison Spirit returned to him. He focused all of his attention inside the pearl and found that Xiao Leng was still unconscious. Zhang Hai was tending to him. Jiang Yi sent a voice transmission to Zhang Hai, telling him that he was safe and that they would discuss everything that had happened when they returned to Divine Eagle City.

With the Poison Spirit with Jiang Yi this time, they did not meet a single person along the way back. Once Jiang Yi arrived back at Yellow Sand City, he did not immediately teleport out. Instead, he found a place for them to rest. It was such a close shave. He felt genuinely exhausted, right down to his bones.

He slept well for a full fourteen to sixteen hours. When Jiang Yi woke up again, he felt very relaxed. Sleep was good medicine. He scanned the room but did not find the Poison Spirit. In a low voice, he called out, “Poison Spirit!”

Swish!

A ghostly figure floated out, giving Jiang Yi a bad scare. He looked at the Poison Spirit and asked, shocked, “How did you get in?”

“I have been in the room the entire time.”

The Poison Spirit grinned and said, “This is the special mystical ability of the Phantom Race—the Art of Concealment!”

“The Art of Concealment?”

Jiang Yi’s eyes widened into two huge circles. He exclaimed, “I know the Art of Concealment, too!”

“Hahaha!”

The Poison Spirit burst into laughter. “Yours is an imitation. It was created based on the Phantom Race’s mystical ability. Ordinary God Kings can see through your Art of Concealment, right? Mine cannot be seen through by anyone but Titled Battle Gods and above. These Titled Battle Gods must even have very strong soul spirits. Ordinary Battle Gods cannot see through it.”

“Nice job!”

Jiang Yi sighed sorrowfully and softly. A moment later, he said, “Poison Spirit, are we going to Saint Spirit Domain now? I want to look for my mother.”

“No!”

The Poison Spirit shook his head. “If you go back now, not only would you be unable to find Young Mistress Piaopiao, but you might even be killed! My clansmen find it utterly shameful that Young Mistress Piaopiao went down into the Lower Domain in secret back then…”

“That’s true!”

Jiang Yi’s gaze darkened. The Poison Spirit did not explain things that clearly, but Jiang Yi understood his meaning very clearly. To the Phantom Race, Yi Piaopiao having a child with a mortal was something to be very ashamed of. He was the product of something extremely shameful!

If he appeared in Saint Spirit Domain now, this would agitate the Clan Head of the Phantom Race. For all he knew, he would be killed in a heartbeat. Even if he was not, he would be chased out immediately. Yi Piaopiao would probably suffer even harsher consequences then.

“Am I not to enter Saint Spirit Domain forever, then?”

Jiang Yi mumbled to himself, lost in a daze. At that moment, he felt like he had just lost his soul. The Poison Spirit shook his head and said, “You can, but Young Lord must achieve a certain level of skill and fame. If you can shake the entire Earth Domain, the Clan Head would likely have second thoughts and might probably even consider accepting you and letting Young Mistress Piaopiao out earlier.”

“Shake the Earth Domain?”

The sliver of hope that Jiang Yi harbored disappeared once again. He smiled bitterly and said, “How long would I need to do that? A year? Ten years? Or a hundred years?”

“Young Lord, do not be eager!”

The Poison Spirit said confidently. “Young Lord, you have such an amazing Primitive Spiritual Treasure. Your battle powers will improve significantly very quickly. I will also do what I can to help you improve your skills. When the time comes, we can walk into the Saint Spirit Domain in broad daylight, loud and proud.”

“That’s right!”

Jiang Yi’s eyes brightened. This little beast had just been born, and it could already control yellow sand worms. If Jiang Yi could find powerful flames or the special ‘food’ for it so that it could continue to grow, it might develop even more powerful mystical abilities!

Now, the yellow sand worms alone could make him invincible to even Demon-Killing Battle Gods. How long had it been since he arrived at the Higher Domain? For all he knew, he would be able to shake the entire Earth Domain soon. Then, he would be able to walk into Saint Spirit Domain proudly and save Yi Piaopiao from the Saint Spirit Mountain.

“Mom, wait for me. Your child will save you for sure!” Jiang Yi mumbled under his breath. Suddenly, he jumped to his feet. “Let’s go! We’re going back to Divine Eagle City!”
