Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

In Xuanyuan Lingyan’s eyes, Jiang Yi was really no big deal. How many days had it been since he ascended? He was nothing but a farmer in the Lower-Domain countryside. If not for his relationship with Mo Lingqiu, would he be able to become a City Lord?

He was only a Heaven God before. From what she heard, he went into the Primitive Mystic Realm twice in a row in recent times, and that was the only reason why he could become a God General so quickly. An ant like that was not worth anything at all in Xuanyuan Lingyan’s eyes.

Jiang Yi was not wrong. The Xuanyuan Clan was very well-known in Earth Emanations Domain. Jiang Yi just did not know about it before.

In fact, the Xuanyuan Clan had been dominating the Earth Emanations Domain for hundreds of years. They were the strongest, indigenous divine race in Earth Emanations Domain. All the indigenous divine races of the Earth Emanations Domain had the same character. They all saw themselves higher above everyone else. From the bottom of their hearts, they despised people who ascended from the Lower Domain.

A huge change had occurred in the Xuanyuan Clan tens of years ago. At that time, a heaven-defying, formidable martial artist appeared in the Mo Clan. This martial artist almost wiped out the entire Xuanyuan Clan. At last, the latter had no choice but to rely on the Demon-Killing Pavilion. That was the only way it managed to protect its family line.

This was why the Xuanyuan Clan had always seen the Mo Clan as its enemy. Naturally, they felt unhappy that Mo Lingqiu helped Jiang Yi get to where he was. Outsiders did not know much about Jiang Xiaonu, and neither Mo Lingqiu nor Xiao Hong spread the news. The story outside was that there was some kind of relationship between Jiang Yi and Mo Lingqiu, and that was the reason that the latter supported the former to become a City Lord. Otherwise… if Xiao Hong had not become an old folly, why would he allow a Demon-Killing Pavilion disciple to become a City Lord?

Xuanyuan Lingyan had suspected from the beginning that Jiang Yi was depending on Earth Emanations Pavilion. At that moment, he was only in the Demon-Killing Pavilion to collect intelligence and report it back. In other words, he was Earth Emanations Pavilion’s spy. This was why Xuanyuan Lingyan did not like Jiang Yi. From the moment they met, she did not show him much respect.

Now that Xuanyuan Shanshan traveled all this way to her territory to make a request like this—and even offer up her body subtly, this brat was getting cocky? Xuanyuan Lingyan finally let out the anger that she had been suppressing for a long time.

Jiang Yi was already at the door. He wanted to open the restrictions, but he stopped when he heard Xuanyuan Lingyan’s words. Jiang Yi turned around and narrowed his eyes as he glared at Xuanyuan Lingyan. A moment later, he said nonchalantly, “What’s the matter? Pavilion Lord Xuanyuan, will I not make it out of this door if I don’t agree to that request?”

Xuanyuan Shanshan smiled but did not say anything. Xuanyuan Lingyan stared then growled through gritted teeth, “If you don’t show us respect, you will… bear the consequences!”

“Keke!”

Jiang Yi slapped the mechanism on the wall, causing the gate to open. It was then that he scanned the two of them. “Young Mistress Shanshan, you know full well the consequences of letting the news leak and taking what I have by force. If you dare to mess around with me, then YOU will have to bear the consequences.”

“Xiao Leng!”

Jiang Yi hollered. Immediately, Xiao Leng appeared outside the gate, locking his gaze on the two women. Without turning back, Jiang Yi walked out of the room and out of Xuanyuan Lingyan’s yard.

Bang!

Once Jiang Yi left, Xuanyuan Lingyan grabbed the teacup on the table and slammed it onto the floor. Her entire body was engulfed in killing intent as she shouted, “Jiang Yi, you farmer! You’re so overbearing, so overbearing! If I don’t show you the proper way to treat me, I will cease to be a human!”

“Alright, alright!”

Xuanyuan Shanshan was still smiling. There was no hint of anger on her face. Instead, she waved her hand and said, “Little Sister Yan, do not allow yourself to become so angry on account of someone like that. We cannot touch him. Forget it…”

“Forget it?”

Xuanyuan Lingyan’s gaze hardened. “I cannot swallow this. Ever since I was young, who have been so daring as to treat me in this manner? Hmph, he is definitely Earth Emanations Pavilion’s spy. He’d better not let me find any proof against him, or I will kill him with my own hands. That’s right… Cousin, what do you want from him? What’s so valuable that would cause you to offer even your own body? If word gets out, your reputation will be ruined.”

“Keke!”

Xuanyuan Shanshan’s eyes glazed over as she sighed. “If he would give it to me, what’s the big deal about playing with him? I’m not like you—pure and spotless. My reputation as a widow is already bad enough. Now, all I want is for my skills to improve, so that I can try my hand in the Heaven Domain. As for… what treasure I’m after, I cannot say. Otherwise, the Demon-Killing Pavilion’s General Pavilion will kill me for sure. I can only say that I just came back from the Primitive Mystic Realm.”

“Primitive Mystic Realm?”

Xuanyuan Lingyan blinked and suddenly shouted, “Jiang Yi also came out from there! Could it be…?”

“Shush!”

Xuanyuan Shanshan quickly gestured for Lingyan to be quiet. Her expression turned serious again, and she said, “Forget it. That treasure cannot be snatched, and it has a soul of its own. If I really obtain it, I might die. We’ll take it that I don’t have such good fortune. Don’t do anything stupid, or else we and the Mo Clan might go to war. Then, you might be punished severely by the clan. I’m going back! If this brat agrees to sell the treasure, do send a message to me.”

Xuanyuan Lingyan got up and walked outwards. She thought about the way Jiang Yi looked at her earlier. She knew men very well, and she had even gone to bed with many of them. She knew that men like Jiang Yi were the hardest to deal with. They did not go for either the soft or hard method. There was some hope at first, but Xuanyuan Lingyan’s temper ruined it all.

She wanted the Primitive Spiritual Treasure very badly, but she would not bring the entire Xuanyuan Clan into danger for the sake of something like that. What’s more, she was afraid of death. She could take her time to collect the treasures she needed, and she could take her time to improve her own skills. However, she would not be able to do any of this if she lost her life.

After Xuanyuan Lingyan sent Xuanyuan Shanshan into the Teleportation Formation, she went back to her castle and sat quietly there by herself. Her eyes were filled with shock. If she had not heard this from Xuanyuan Shanshan herself, she would never believe that Jiang Yi would have obtained the Primitive Spiritual Treasure, despite the many other outstanding martial artists in the Primitive Mystic Realm.

“I have to think of a way to get that Primitive Spiritual Treasure. Only then will my skills improve at a crazy rate. Then, even that little Eagle King would not be able to ignore me. He might even fall for me…”

Xuanyuan Lingyan mumbled to herself. Her eyes—like spring water—brightened more as time went by. Suddenly, she shouted, “Xuanyuan Jian, send a top private investigator to keep tabs on Jiang Yi’s whereabouts. If anything out of the ordinary happens, report back immediately. Be careful not to let Xiao Leng detect him!”

“Yes, Young Mistress!”

A wisp of a soul suddenly floated out. It turned into a gust of wind that blew outwards, quickly disappearing before her eyes.

…

Jiang Yi returned to Jiang Residence and immediately sought Gu Mu out. He asked Gu Mu to find out more information on the Primitive Spiritual Treasure.

The Primitive Spiritual Treasure must be very valuable, or Xuanyuan Shanshan would not have traveled all the way from Earth Emanations City to Divine Eagle City. Gu Mu was a soul slave; he would not let the news leak for sure. Jiang Yi was not worried in the least.

A little under an hour later, Gu Mu returned with a little book. In a low voice, he said, “Master, this belongs to the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan. You’ve instructed me to keep this matter a secret so I did not dare to search in the Earth Emanations Pavilion or the Demon-Killing Pavilion. Among the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan’s books, I found this resource.”

“Alright, you’re dismissed.” Jiang Yi nodded, flipping open the little book. There was not much recorded inside the book. However, once he finished reading it, Jiang Yi understood more about the Primitive Spiritual Treasure.

Heaven and earth have their own spirits. As a result, many strange beings came into existence in different parts of the world!

Take the Chaos Beasts for example. These were born out of nature. The Primitive Spiritual Treasure was born out of the Primitive Mystic Realm. Throughout history, there have been three types of such treasures: First, divine equipment such as battle armor and divine artifacts. This type of treasures was extremely powerful and comparable to supreme-grade divine artifacts.

Second, heaven and earth’s demon spirits. These were demon spirits that contained life. Demon spirits like that possessed strange mystical abilities. Third, rubbish treasures. Rubbish treasures could be of the first or second type, but they were considered much less effective. However, the chances of getting Primitive Spiritual Treasures like that were very low.

“Damn!”

On seeing the introduction to rubbish treasure, Jiang Yi studied the little beast in the Fire Spirit Pearl once again. His heart thudded. He did not feel a particularly strong aura from the beast. Could it be a rubbish treasure? According to the book, once the second type of treasures—Heaven and Earth demon spirits—recognized their masters, they would form some kind of spiritual connection with the masters. This little beast was not forming any sort of spiritual connection with Jiang Yi.
