Chapter 1143: Where is Wanguan?
Jiang Yi mulled over these things for several days. He still could not figure out the Fire Dragon Sword completely; neither could he activate it. The only thing that Jiang Yi could do was throw it into his Ancient Divine Essence Ring and go back to keeping the three women company.
Sin Island was not far from the East Sea—there was only a Sin Sea that separated the two continents. The Mystic Divine Palace moved faster using Heaven Evasion than Jiang Yi would have moved if he was alone. Thus, in just seven or eight days, they arrived at the Sin Sea.
Jiang Yi emerged from the palace once again and used his divine senses to look around. Once he was sure of where they were going, he continued using Heaven Evasion. Three days later, they realized that the Mystic Divine Palace was already in the White Dragon Archipelago of the Lu Clan.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
They appeared on one of the bigger islands. There were no cities around them. There were only strong and powerful mountain bandit corps. The Mystic Divine Palace’s sudden appearance had frightened all the bandits there.
“The Mystic Divine Palace?”
Two big mountain bandit corps recognized the palace at once. The leaders of those corps immediately looked fearful. They waved their hands, gesturing to their soldiers to retreat. The small mountain bandit corps were the ones who charged toward the palace. They thought that a treasure had dropped from the heavens, and they wanted to keep it for themselves.
Jiang Yi scanned the surroundings with his divine senses and found that the strongest of the smaller mountain bandit corps was only a high-stage Heaven Monarch. He was not even interested in fighting them anymore. In a cool voice, he shouted, “Get lost if you don’t want to die. I am Jiang Yi!”
On hearing his first words, many bandits became angry. However, by the time Jiang Yi introduced himself, they were scared out of their wits. As fast as they could, they ran as far as they could from the palace.
Chief Jiang was too well-known. Perhaps one would not die upon messing around with thirteen clans of the Gods Bestow Tribe; however, one would surely die if they messed around with Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi made a name for himself by killing a mountain of people after all.
After the mountain bandit corps left, Jiang Yi once again used Heaven Evasion and resumed his journey. This time, the Mystic Divine Palace landed much nearer to the Gods Bestow Island. He was only half a day away from the Gods Bestow City now. Jiang Yi used his divine senses to scan the surroundings once again. He decided not to use Heaven Evasion anymore. He would fly into the Gods Bestow City with his head held high.
“Ruobing, this is Gods Bestow Island. Half a day later, we will arrive at the God Bestow City. Do you want to get down and walk around?” Jiang Yi sat down in the Mystic Thearch Pavilion and whispered into Yin Ruobing’s ear as he hugged her.
Unsurprisingly, Yin Ruobing shook her head. “Jiang Yi, I won’t go out. The Sin Island and the East Imperial Continent are at loggerheads. The disciples of the Nine Thearch Clans have sworn at a young age to destroy those of the Sin Island so that we can continue to keep our heads high. If I dare to step into this place, my clan would probably chase me out of the clan immediately. I’m doing well in the Mystic Divine Palace in any case. I want to figure out a way to realize the heaven paintings.”
“Alright. I will come and keep you company again in a few days.” Jiang Yi nodded his head. Yin Ruobing smiled and responded, “You don’t have to come here on purpose. As long as I am in your heart, I will be happy. The other things are not important. What’s more, if you keep interrupting me as I try to realize these paintings, how am I supposed to train?”
“What do you mean ‘interrupt’? Is this considered interrupting?”
The hand that Jiang Yi had around Yin Ruobing’s waist moved up several inches. He felt the curves of the woman’s body as an evil grin appeared on his face. He whispered in Yin Ruobing’s ear, “Ruobing, when can we redo what we did that time in Fengdu City? At the time, I was focused on feeling the romantic charm that you were releasing toward me. I forgot what it felt like already…”
“You terrible rogue!”
Yin Ruobing blushed, grabbed Jiang Yi’s hand, and tried to wriggle out of his grip. However, Jiang Yi got up and grabbed Yin Ruobing’s body with both his arms. He threw her onto the bed.
“Oh, no!”
Yin Ruobing’s bottom was hurting. She quickly crawled to her feet and tried to run away, but Jiang Yi was way too fast. He pressed Yin Ruobing down and pressed his lips down onto Yin Ruobing’s. His hands tore Yin Ruobing’s clothes apart. He was extremely rough with her.
“Hey, be gentle, you’re hurting me…”
Yin Ruobing’s breath was becoming labored by Jiang Yi’s kisses, and her skin was turning red from his rough touches. She quickly opened her mouth to stop him anxiously. She tried to push Jiang Yi away with her hands, but her inhibitions got tossed aside by Jiang Yi’s urgent actions. Soon, she began to kiss Jiang Yi back with equal vigor.
“Hehe, this little hussy was distinguished in front of others but a freak in bed. He had to teach her a good lesson…”
On feeling Yin Ruobing’s urgent kisses, Jiang Yi smiled. He knew full well that these distinguished ladies appeared obedient on the outside but could be extremely wild once they let their guard down in bed. Feng Luan was like this, and so was Qing Yu.
As they tore more and more clothes off of their bodies and as Yin Ruobing became more and more passionate, the fragrance emanating from her body became more and more intense. That heart-wrenching fragrance caused Jiang Yi to completely lose his mind. Her refusal and suppression of her own desires were driving him further over the edge. At that moment, he set everything aside and lost himself in the sea of love.
The entire battle took them about an hour. At last, Yin Ruobing pleaded with Jiang Yi to stop. Jiang Yi looked at Yin Ruobing, who was slumped onto the bed like a pile of mud. He smiled, proud of himself.
He himself did not dare to start a second battle. There were still three fields which had been left dry for years, waiting for him in the God Bestow City. Absence made the heart grow fonder. He had been gone for several years after all. He guessed that if he did not save a bit of energy for himself, he would be the one begging for mercy by the end.
He took a bath and put on a new robe. Then, he went to Mo Yao’er. Mo Yao’er did not want to enter God Bestow City as well, much less did she want to see Feng Luan and the others. She decided instead to remain in the Mystic Divine Palace to continue training.
Su Ruoxue had no opinion on the matter. With the Fifth Eldress by her side, she did not have too many fears or objections. After some counseling by Jiang Yi, she decided to try and get back some of her memory. It was painful after all for a human being to live on without any recollection of his or her past.
The Mystic Divine Palace was so fast that it was comparable to an eight-star martial artist. This allowed them to cut across half the Gods Bestow Island and arrive at the Gods Bestow City in less than half a day.
From afar, Jiang Yi’s divine senses discovered that there was a city floating in mid-air. His expression became complicated as he sighed. Of course, when he left the Gods Bestow Island, he thought he would never come back here. He did not think that he would be back here today with his head held high.
Swish!
The Mystic Divine Palace landed on the ground at the west gate of the Gods Bestow City. There were many people gathered outside the city gate. Jiang Yi scanned them with his divine senses and immediately looked shocked. The Clan Heads of the thirteen Clans were all present. Even Lei Banxian himself was standing outside the city. Behind them stood hundreds of thousands more of martial artists.
“What’s going on?”
Jiang Yi became wary, but thinking about Ao Lu calmed him down slightly. What’s more, among the martial artists of the Sin Island, most of them—apart from Lei Banxian—were nothing compared to Jiang Yi.
“Feng Luan, Qing Yu, Big Sister Bell, Yun Fei, Situ Yixiao, Huangfu Taotian, Situ Ao, Huangfu Qi…”
He saw many familiar faces and became more relaxed. A part of him started to get excited. At that moment, he put all his concerns aside. Along with Zhan Wushuang, Su Ruoxue, and Fifth Eldress, he transported out of the Mystic Divine Palace.
Swish!
They appeared outside the palace. Below them, everybody’s eyes brightened. Lei Banxian took one step forward, smiled, and shouted, “Welcome our hero back home!”
“Welcome, Chief Jiang, back home!”
Hundreds of thousands of people got down on one knee and called out their greetings. The combined sound echoed throughout the region and seemed to cause even the skies to tremble. The entire Gods Bestow City reverberated with the sound. Jiang Yi smiled gently. He was just about to fly down toward the crowd and make a speech when he realized that something was amiss. He frowned. With his eyes, he scanned the crowd. He turned to Feng Luan and the others, confused. “Where is Wanguan?”
Everyone knew that he was back, and they all went out of the city to welcome him. There was no reason then that Qian Wanguan would not be there. Could something have happened to her?
“Young master!”
Feng Luan sent him a solemn voice transmission, which rang loudly in Jiang Yi’s ear: “You’re finally back. Wanguan went back to the Stellarsky Continent secretly more than half a month ago. Something huge seemed to have happened there.”
