Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Jiang Yi’s assumption was correct. Right now, 500 kilometers to the east was this valley occupied by over a hundred individuals. Those martial artists that occasionally passed by this vicinity would normally be scared witless and escape at their fastest speed when they sense dozens of Soul Travel Realm experts.

This group of people was also rather strange. Since they entered the Crystal Stone Plains, they didn’t go chasing any martial artists; as long as no one provoked them, they would continue to guard this place.

“Swish!”

A martial artist was descending rapidly from the summit of the mountain. He ran all the way to two splendidly-dressed young masters and kneeled down. “Your Third Highness, Young Clan Head, Jiang Yi’s whereabouts has been spotted 500 kilometers to the west. The Spirit Vulture came back with information that it spotted a blue giant wolf that ran at the speed of a tier-three demonic beast!”

“Blue giant wolf? And it’s a tier-three?”

Zhangsun Wuji and Xia Tian’s eyes instantly lit up. There was a smear of cold intent on the edge of Zhangsun Wuji’s mouth as he laughed. “Among all the tier-three wolf-type demonic beasts, the Silver-Moon Demon Wolf has the fastest speed. Moreover, apart from the Mt. Spirit Beast College, it is too difficult for any outsiders to obtain the spirit beast talisman while Jiang Yi is the only one who possesses the wolf-type spirit beast. Hurhur! Don’t mention him dyeing the demon wolf’s fur blue—even if he stripped the fur off of the wolf, he still wouldn’t be able to escape the eyes of the Spirit Vulture. Not unless if he stops using the demon wolf!”

Xia Tian rubbed his hands and instantly shouted out with excitement, “Someone! Send a flying pigeon message to Young Lady Shui and say that we have found Jiang Yi’s whereabouts. Ask her to gather her legion to surround Jiang Yi!”

“There is no need to hurry—!”

Zhangsun Wuji waved his hand. “Before we are certain, do not alert Shui Qianrou. If she is to come to a wild goose hunt, she will definitely be enraged from what we know of her temperament. To be honest, about that lass… I am afraid she might ruin the plan. It is better for us to go check it out first! We have sufficient men. As long as we surround him, Jiang Yi will only be left with death. I am sure, when you take Jiang Yi’s head to Shui Qianrou, she will be even more pleased.”

“What are we waiting for?”

Xia Tian laughed while the spirit beast talisman in his hand flashed. He leaped onto the giant black tiger that appeared and shouted, “Let’s move out!”

“Ice Dragon!”

Zhangsun Wuji also summoned his Ice Dragon and leaped onto it before shouting, “Let the Spirit Vulture continue to track Jiang Yi’s whereabouts. Everyone, use their fastest speed to hurry over to Jiang Yi’s location. Anyone who kills Jiang Yi will be rewarded with one million purple gold!”

The Zhangsun clansmen and Xia Tian’s men were instantly reinvigorated. Over a hundred men rushed in a frenzy, flourishing with imposing aura; all the martial artists that hid in the nearby vicinity were spooked out of their minds.

It was fortunate that Zhangsun Wuji and Xia Tian weren’t devoted to the Kingdom War. They were here purely for slaughtering Jiang Yi! Especially when Zhangsun Wuji, who obtained the full support of the Zhangsun Clan, had to make sure that Jiang Yi was eliminated. As long as Jiang Yi lived for another day, Jiang Yiliu’s status would be unstable. Jiang Yiliu’s mother was from the Zhangsun Clan, which was why they naturally wanted to support Jiang Yiliu to succeed as the Western Garrison Liege Lord.

…

“Goddammit!”

Jiang Yi had been running like a madman for over an hour. He didn’t know how long had he been running, but he noticed that huge bird in the sky was still following him. He was now even more certain that the huge bird was a spirit beast raised by the Zhangsun Clan.

Along the way, he met several martial artists who were of the Purple Mansion Realm. He was able to kill them effortlessly, but he didn’t know how far away the pursuers were—which meant he couldn’t delay any time. The Silver-Moon Demon Wolf was extremely swift, flashing past them. Those martial artists did want to deal with Jiang Yi, but they weren’t fast enough to catch up.

“Stop!”

After running for several hundreds of kilometers, Jiang Yi could still see the huge bird circling above. He quickly withdrew the Silver-Moon Demon Wolf and dove into the forest. The Silver-Moon Demon Wolf was too prominent—if he continued to flee like that, his whereabouts would always be spotted by the huge bird; he would then finally be surrounded by martial artists.

It was just that…

After sprinting for a period of time, the terrain ahead changed again. It turned into a wilderness that barely had trees. If he revealed himself, that huge bird would lock onto him again.

“What should I do now?”

Jiang Yi’s eyes were flickering incessantly. The opposition was certainly tracing his tracks; if he didn’t continue moving, he would soon be surrounded.

“That’s right… underground!”

He was suddenly struck by an inspiration. He searched for concealed stone peaks and dug a tunnel downwards with the Black Scale Sword, digging all the way into the subterranean.

As Jiang Yi tunneled underground, he had a slower speed; but the huge bird was definitely not able to track him. As long as he was submerged in the ground for a period of time, he would be able to get rid of the huge bird and would be able to use the Silver-Moon Demon Wolf to escape later on.

This idea of Jiang Yi’s wasn’t bad at all!

Once the Spirit Vulture lost the trace of Jiang Yi, it could only circle the nearby vicinity of the forest. Once Zhangsun Wuji had arrived at the forest, Jiang Yi had already gone subterranean for several kilometers. He emerged from the other side of the forest and made his getaway by riding on the Silver-Moon Demon Wolf.

“Wuji, what should we do? That Jiang Yi brat has the Silver-Moon Demon Wolf. It is too difficult for us to surround him!”

The Zhangsun clansmen soon discovered the tunnel that was dug by Jiang Yi. They released the Spirit Vulture to scout the radius of 50 kilometers. When the Spirit Vulture couldn’t find Jiang Yi, they declared that the entrapment was a failure. Xia Tian got to know of this information and walked over to Zhangsun Wuji with an infuriated expression.

“A pity that such Spirit Vultures were rare. Otherwise, we will be able to release several at one go; and Jiang Yi will have nowhere to run to!”

Zhangsun Wuji let out a sigh of pity while his eyes flickered. He muttered, rubbed his temples, and spoke with a vexed tone, “There is no other way. We have to get Shui Qianrou to request Yun He to make a move. According to my clan’s resources, Yun He obtained the Green Noxious Bug which is an ancient species on a wild mountain. Once the Green Noxious Bugs are released, it would be easy to track Jiang Yi’s whereabouts.”

“Yun He?”

Xia Tian frowned and rejected decisively, “No way. Shui Qianrou mentioned that she would accompany anyone for a whole month if they helped her kill Jiang Yi. Yun He is a Prince of the Heaven Mystics Kingdom; if we asked him for help, wouldn’t we be giving Shui Qianrou to him? Shui Qianrou is still young and naive. What if she gets duped by that Yun He and loses her chastity? Wouldn’t all my efforts be in vain?”

“Mmm… that is true!”

Zhangsun Wuji nodded and felt a headache. He finally gritted his teeth and proposed, “Don’t ask Shui Qianrou to request for help then. I will take out a piece of heaven artifact; you will also take out your heaven artifact. Send a message to Yun He that we are requesting for his help. If he killed Jiang Yi, the credit is still yours! Using a whole month’s time, I believe Third Highness is able to settle that lass, right?”

“Alright then!”

Xia Tian thought about it and made a hand gesture that he was going all-out, “Go send someone to look for Yun He. As long as I can obtain Shui Qianrou, I shall give him that heaven artifact.”

Zhangsun Wuji waved his hand gave an order. “Let the Spirit Vulture track down Yun He’s whereabouts. Find him and send a message. Ask him to use the Green Noxious Bugs to help pursue an individual. After the request is completed, he will receive two pieces of heaven artifact and ten elite fox ladies!”

In just four hours, Zhangsun Wuji’s Spirit Vulture discovered the Heaven Mystics Kingdom’s Sixth Prince—Yun He’s whereabouts.

His whereabouts were too easy to find because he was currently seated on the left shoulder of a giant ape that was roughly ten meters tall. He was accompanied by over a hundred escorts, which included a group of 50 beauties clad in green armor. It was actually the Water Moon Observatory.

The Spirit Vulture swooped down quickly with a message tube held in the beak. After diving for a short distance, it dropped the message tube. Yun He shot up and grabbed the message tube. He opened it and took a glance, revealing a mocking expression on his dashing face.

He let out a faint laugh and turned around to speak with Shui Qianrou who was seated on the other shoulder of the giant ape, “Young Lady Shui, Zhangsun Wuji and Xia Tian sent over a message, requesting me to help them pursue Jiang Yi! Keke… it seems like they have exhausted all their options. Don’t worry, with this Prince making a move, I will certainly serve revenge for you. I will present you Jiang Yi’s head in five days!”
