Chapter 701: Re-establishment

Indeed, Bu He had thought of squishing the soft persimmon. However, Jiang Yi had too many people. Furthermore, there was no possibility of surrendering. He could only capture the ringleader first before capturing all of his followers, which meant slaughtering or capturing Jiang Yi. This was the only way he could survive.
Unexpectedly, this soft persimmon was actually stronger than anyone present and was a genuinely strong stubble. They were several miles away from Jiang Yi. Before they could even approach him to launch an attack, Jiang Yi had already instant-shifted over. When they had discovered that Jiang Yi had started to reappear at their upper left, there was already Thunder Fire emitting out from his body.
The heat wave engulfed the vast sky as the roasting heat caused everyone to sense a fatal danger. With imminent danger, all humans and demonic beasts with spirit wisdom would escape instinctively and not put their lives at risk. However, the temperature was just way too high. Before they even managed to escape, it had already engulfed their surroundings, enveloping their whole bodies.
“Ahhh!”
Those weaker Heaven Monarch martial artists’ divine shields ruptured instantly. Following which, their whole body would catch fire as they were turned into a human torch. Only Bu He managed to flee several tens of meters away. However, his divine shield had also been ruptured as he produced a bitter unreconciled roar. His body started to ignite in a raging blaze as he started to roll around in the vast sky as he howled.
Everyone present was rendered still in a death-like silence.
At this moment, those people stationed far away at the thunder mountain, Big Sister Bell’s subordinates, Jiang Yi’s subordinates who were here as well as Bu He’s remaining men—all felt their soul spirits throbbing.
This was the first time Jiang Yi had revealed his Thunder Fire in front of everybody. Only Niu Deng and his team had seen it before. However, they were also intimidated. This domineering heaven and earth mystic fire had shocked and terrified everyone. It was going to be engraved into their memories forever.
Swish! Swish!
A lot of those who were relatively nearer had finally reacted and fled in fright. Otherwise, their divine shields would also be ruptured as well. All of them gazed at Jiang Yi in fear as if they saw a netherworld fiend. They did not dare to have any intention to go against him at all.
Jiang Yi’s body flashed as he withdrew all the Thunder Fire in mid-air. Simultaneously, he stored Bu He’s halberd and ancient divine essence ring away. Only then did he fly towards the Thearch Palace with a wave of his hand as he left a sentence behind: “Kill all of them. Don’t leave any of them alive. Niu Deng, clean up the battlefield. Yang Dong, help me to thank Big Sister Bell on my behalf!”
Less than ten people remained from Bu He’s side. Jiang Yi was too disinclined to continue participating in the remaining battle since the result was evident.
It was always better for the boss to be as mysterious as possible. He had achieved the effect he wanted for this battle, and he had also seen the devotion of his subordinates. Was there still any significance for him to remain here? Of course, Jiang Yi had left so that everyone could distribute the spoils of war in a proper manner. There had to be benefits when war breaks out. Otherwise, how were they going to be more proactive next time?
“Chief Jiang, please take your time. Kill!”
Niu Deng and the others yelled out in exultation before charging over with his men as they slaughtered disorderly, annihilating the remaining dozen of Heaven Monarchs. He burnt all of their corpses only after taking over the ancient divine essence rings.
It wasn’t because he wanted to hog onto the spoils of war. Rather, the meaning behind Jiang Yi’s word was very clear. They had to distribute the spoils of war evenly. Not just his side but also the Heaven Monarchs from Big Sister Bell’s side had to have a share of it as well.
More than forty Heaven Monarchs. Previously, they were all from a reputable mountain bandit corps in the vicinity of the White Dragon Archipelago’s territory. The wealth within their ancient divine essence rings was extremely impressive as Niu Deng distributed them. The Heaven Monarchs from Yang Dong side had gotten quite a substantial amount as they all returned to the city delightedly.
Niu Deng got Niu Wang to bring their men back to the city while he brought seven or eight Heaven Monarchs to the Thearch Palace behind the thunder mountains. Just as Niu Deng had expected, Jiang Yi didn’t head into the Thearch Palace to cultivate. Rather, he was sitting nearby and was waiting for Niu Deng’s arrival.
“Chief Jiang. I had finished the distribution and had given Yang Dong and others 60% of it!”
Niu Deng went up to report after getting the seven or eight Heaven Monarchs to wait at the side. Jiang Yi nodded and did not haggle on this topic. On the contrary, he knitted his eyebrows and spoke, “Niu Deng, when you returned, help me tell Chief Qian and Young Lady Feng that I’m interested in recruiting more subordinates to expand my strength. Seek out their opinion on it.”
“Alright!”
Niu Deng’s pair of eyes shone. Previously, Jiang Yi was too low-key. He didn’t wish to recruit too many subordinates, and Niu Deng wanted to persuade him into doing so. Now that Jiang Yi had mentioned this himself, it was natural for him to be excited. The more people there were, the more influential he would become.
After Niu Deng had left, Jiang Yi didn’t head into the Thearch Palace. He sat above a boulder and started contemplating.
He discovered a problem after this battle. Chief Leng and the others would never open their hearts or form an alliance with him; neither did he wish to have too many dealings with Chief Leng and the others. Since this was the case, there was no longer a need for him to remain low-key or exercise forbearance. He had already established himself within the city, with Big Sister Bell supporting him. After this battle, his influence would grow even bigger. What was there for him to fear then?
At this moment, there were a lot of newcomers in the city. They would all be taken in by Chief Leng if he weren’t going to recruit them. When that time comes, their influence would only grow bigger. If he couldn’t suppress them completely, there would be a lot of twists and turns he might have to face in the future.
After he had killed Ba Dao, Chief Long, Big Brother Heng, and the others, Big Sister Bell told him not to recruit Big Brother Heng’s men. He was very obedient and sensible. However, Chief Leng and the others still attacked using the strength of others as they caused chaos in the dark.
At that time, he had just gotten to the position, and his men had yet to devote themselves to him. There were so many unknowns in the situation, and he did not gain any recognition from the Lu Clan members. However, it was no longer the same now. He had gained the city lord’s recognition, and the Lu Clan’s commanders were also on his side. It was time for him to expand his influence.
There was no law or justice within the Gods Bestow Tribe. They only believed in the strong reigning supreme. The stronger one was, the more the others would revere this person. On the contrary, if one exercised forbearance blindly and continued trying to win favors, others would just continue taking advantage of this person.
Two hours later…
Niu Deng returned and brought along two different opinions with him: Qian Wanguan proposed expanding and recruit all the experts we could recruit. Furthermore, he proposed to promote Niu Deng and Yang Dong to become the next two chiefs. After which, they could unite with Big Sister Bell to proclaim their rule over Sky Thunder City.
Feng Luan was more prudent. She suggested recruiting lesser Heaven Monarchs martial artists but increase our influence progressively. This way, it wouldn’t be too extreme while Chief Leng and the others’ reaction wouldn’t be too big. The Lu Clan’s commanders wouldn’t have any objection on it as well. After all, Chief Leng and the Lu Clan’s commanders had been in contact with each other for so many years. Their relation had more or less grown fundamentally.
“Chief Jiang. What should we do then?”
Niu Deng eyes were filled with confusion as well. It would be best if he could become chief. Although he knew that he would just be a puppet chief, he was still chief, wasn’t it? However, he also knew that if this matter wasn’t handled well, a lot of people would be consigned to eternal damnation as well.
Jiang Yi grew silent. He pondered about it for a full hour. Suddenly, he stood up and retrieved the Thearch Palace before soaring up the sky and flew towards where the Sky Thunder City was as he yelled coldly, “Let’s go. Let’s return to the city first.”
“Alright!”
Niu Deng brought his men and soared to the sky as well while their eyes were all filled with enthusiasm.
It had been over a month since Jiang Yi had remained low-profile as he endured silently outside of the city. Apparently, the people within the city seemed to have forgotten how tyrannical and vicious he was. Perhaps, he might have to reveal his malevolent fangs again in his return as he wanted all those who dared to create trouble, to experience a painful consequence.
A little less than an hour later, Jiang Yi returned to the Sky Thunder City. He returned to his own courtyard directly. After discussing with Qian Wanguan and Feng Luan for an hour, he went to Big Sister Bell’s courtyard alone. This time, he had come out only after an hour had passed.
He didn’t come out alone. Rather, Big Sister Bell was accompanying him.
The duo went into the City Lord Mansion and met with the city lord. They chatted for an hour. After which, the duo went to pay a visit to the ten great commanders within the city. After they had visited all the commanders, Jiang Yi got Niu Deng to hold onto his invitation card and pay a visit to the other chiefs. There were also the three new faction leaders. Bu He might already be killed by Jiang Yi, but he still had almost ten thousand followers within the city which had several Heaven Monarchs within them.
There were very few words within the invitation. There was only a sentence within it: There will be a banquet held in the Hundred Flowers Pavilion between 7pm to 9pm. Those who do not turn up shall bear the consequences.
