Chapter 1500: Beat Both the Old Eagle King and the Little Eagle King at the Same Time!
Yi Buhui could come out in advance because of Jiang Yi!
Yi Tu caught wind of news that Jiang Yi was in Demon-Buster Army’s camp and thought that it was best not to let their relationship worsen. Of course, given his status, he could not step out on his own. All he could do was send someone from the third generation. Yi Buhui did sneak around with Jiang Yi that day, didn’t he?
That meant his relationship with Jiang Yi was not too bad. Thus, Yi Tu requested for the Phantom Race to let Yi Buhui make a trip to Demon-Buster Army Camp to forge a relationship with Jiang Yi. He wanted to lessen the feud that Jiang Yi had with the Phantom Race.
Jiang Yi brought Poison Spirit out. Yi Buhui was dressed in a white robe that fluttered in the wind. He looked nonchalant as he sipped his tea, every move of his elegant. It did not look at all like he was faking it. This was all natural elegance, the way he had been brought up.
Yi Buhui stood up when he saw Jiang Yi, smiling and nodding slightly. It caused others to feel light as a breeze. He turned to look at the Poison Spirit and said, “Yi Fan, congratulations on realizing your Divine Spirit Thrust!”
After Yi Buhui entered, he wanted first to chat with the Poison Spirit. However, the Poison Spirit completely ignored him the entire time. At that moment, he finally had the chance. Of course, he slipped in a couple of pleasantries while he could to forge a better relationship with him. Unexpectedly, the Poison Spirit did not fall for it. Instead, he cupped his hands and said, “Young Master Yi, I have already been kicked out of the clan. I am not fit to be called Yi Fan. Just call me ‘Poison Spirit’.”
Yi Buhui kept smiling slightly, not paying much attention to the Poison Spirit. He gave up chatting. After all, he was Jiang Yi’s soul slave.
Yi Buhui turned to gaze at Jiang Yi and said, “Jiang Yi, I didn’t know you were Auntie’s son before this. If I have offended you, please forgive me. Blood is thicker than water. Our bones contain the same type of blood. This is something that cannot be changed. I have always had a lot of respect for Auntie. I remember that when I was young, my auntie loved to take me all around to play…”
When Jiang Yi heard the first few sentences, his expression darkened. However, the last few sentences caused his expression to brighten up again. He recalled Yi Buhui calling the Phantom King an ‘old antique’ back at the Eighteenth Level of the Saint Prison. He suddenly felt a bit better about Yi Buhui. Everything aside, Yi Buhui really was good to Yi Piaopiao. He could feel injustice for her sake. This was enough for Jiang Yi to like him.
He waved his hand and said warmly, “Young Master Yi, please take a seat.”
Once he saw that Jiang Yi’s expression was much kinder, Yi Buhui smiled that much wider. Slightly sorrowful, he said, “Jiang Yi, Auntie was titled the most beautiful woman in the Earth Domain back then. Her skills were way above her age. She was the most beautiful Saint Spirit Flower of the Phantom Race. As her son, you have not embarrassed her at all. Father says that Auntie is very proud of you.”
“Mother…”
Jiang Yi closed his eyes, his expression pained. Images of Yi Piaopiao filled his mind, along with the back figure that he saw in Saint Prison. Jiang Yi sucked in several deep breaths and finally said, “Young Master Yi, let’s not talk about this. What did you come looking for me for?”
He did not have the skills or the capabilities to rescue Yi Piaopiao. Talking about these things would only cause his heart to hurt even more. Jiang Yi would much rather not think about it, and change the topic instead.
Yi Buhui understood this, too. He stopped bringing Yi Piaopiao up as his expression became more somber. In a low voice, he said, “Jiang Yi, I understand the situation in Demon-Buster Valley. You cannot go on this way. It will be very difficult for you to survive in Demon-Buster Valley once you’ve offended Young Master You.
“What’s more, you’ve offended almost all the other young masters as well. This will hinder your development greatly. These young masters will all rise to the top levels of the various domains. Even if you become a King-Ranked martial artist and take control of the entire domain, you will still be isolated by the other domains in Earth Domain…”
Yi Buhui was right, but what could Jiang Yi do?
Was he supposed to allow those young masters to join the Fire Phoenix Army and then make a mess of the entire army? Was he to allow those young masters to turn the army outside down as they fought for their own personal glory? How would they obtain battle merits that way? Without battle merits, how was he to develop quickly, and rescue Yi Piaopiao? How would he fight the Green Eagle King in ten years?
Jiang Yi smiled bitterly and said, “Our relationship has already been made sour; I have no other choice!”
“You do!”
Yi Buhui’s eyes brightened. “I have already made an appointment with Young Master You and company. I will be the mediator. Be nicer to them. If all of you are willing to be friendly to one another, this feud will be glossed over. As long as you know how to compromise, they will forgive you on my account.”
“No!”
Jiang Yi rejected this proposal very decisively. “Yi Buhui, it is not that I have no regard for you. This is my character. I’ve always stuck through with my decision to the end. I don’t care if they look down on me or if they plot against me. If I get the chance, I will make sure that I make life extra difficult for them.”
“…”
Yi Buhui was completely speechless now. Why was his character exactly the same as Yi Piaopiao’s?
His expression hardened as he said in a low voice, “Jiang Yi, you have to think this through. I’ll give you an example. You’ve heard of the Blood-Thirsty King, right? He is one of the prodigies of Earth Domain. In twenty years, he advanced to become a King-Ranked martial artist. His skills surpassed everyone around him; however, his temper was bad, and he did not know how to compromise with others. This is why he remains a bully in a small domain. The moment he tries to take over a bigger domain, the rest of the King-Ranked martial artists would join forces to push him back down.
“Whenever something big happens, the various formidable martial artists would join forces, and he would be the most unwelcome. Sometimes, he would not even be invited. If you carry on this way, your outcome will be just like the Blood-Thirsty King’s. What’s more, for all we know, people might be able to secretly plot your downfall. Even if you don’t think for yourself, you should at least think about your women, your friends, and your clan…”
“There’s no need to think anymore!”
Jiang Yi’s attitude was still the same. He waved his hand and said, “You want me to bow down to them, and that’s impossible. Yi Buhui, go home. There is no need to waste any more breath on this matter.”
He was being this firm for two reasons: First, this was his character. Second, he had no plans at all to advance in the Earth Domain. He planned to return to Stellarsky Domain once he rescued both Yi Piaopiao and Jiang Xiaonu. As for these games and politics, he couldn’t care less. All these things annoyed him to the extreme.
“Sigh…”
Yi Buhui heaved a long sigh as he stood up and cupped his hands. “Alright, then. I’m going back now. If you run into any trouble, you can look for me at any time. I will try my best to help you where I can.”
“Oh, right…”
At the door, Yi Buhui seemed to recall something. Very seriously, he turned around and advised, “You… had better not have any thoughts about going for Qi Qingchen. You know Little Eagle King’s temper well. I’ve already given up. I hope you won’t do anything silly. You cannot subdue a woman like her.”
“Hahaha!”
Jiang Yi jumped to his feet and burst into laughter. “I am not even afraid of the Old Eagle King; would I be afraid of the Little Eagle King? Once I become strong enough, I will beat both the Old Eagle King and the Little Eagle King at the same time!”
“…”
Yi Buhui put his palm to his forehead and left without saying anything more. He had no idea how to deal with Jiang Yi anymore. What’s more, he felt like he did not achieve anything by coming to the Demon-Buster Army this time. Instead, he probably made things worse. It was difficult to get on the good side of someone like Jiang Yi. Both of them were of different backgrounds; they considered very different things, and their minds worked very differently. How could they get along well?
“Qi Qingchen?”
Jiang Yi did not have any intention to take things further with Qi Qingchen. In fact… ever since he came to Earth Domain, he had not thought about any woman. He was not here to date; he was here to finish his business. Qi Qingchen was an absolute beauty, whom he could not subdue indeed.
“Who in the entire Earth Domain would be good enough for her?”
Jiang Yi recalled Qi Qingchen’s status, looks, and cultivation level; and his mind immediately filled with questions. He guessed that the only person who would be good enough for Qi Qingchen would be the Little Eagle King. However, it looked like Qi Qingchen did not like the Little Eagle King in the least. Was she destined to be alone for the rest of her life?
