“Hmph!”
Jiang Yi did not quite agree with Ao Lu. He shook his head and said, “I cannot sit back and leave the billions of people who died in Stellarsky Domain unavenged. What’s more, I’m not the one who wants to go after her. If she really is the mastermind, she will come after me either way. No matter how good she is and no matter how powerful her Heaven Nether Sect is, there is no True God in Stellarsky Domain, is there? If I attain the same powers as the Mystic Thearch, will I not be able to kill her?”
“Hehe.”
Ao Lu smiled but did not bother to argue with Jiang Yi. Instead, he said, “Jiang Yi, I have a mystical ability that’s called the Mind-Reading Technique. You’ve heard about it, haven’t you?”
“That’s right!”
Jiang Yi’s eyes lit up. “Lord Ao, did you use this mystical ability? Can you use it to figure out who the mastermind is?”
“I cannot!” Ao Lu laughed bitterly. “I can only see through people who have lower-level skills than I do. I cannot look into the Battle Thearch’s and North Thearch’s souls at all. What I can confirm is that the Evil Thearch, the Beast Thearch, the Sword Thearch, Tang Shenji, and the others have nothing to do with this! I want you to stay away from that lass because I cannot figure out what she is thinking. In fact, I cannot look into any of the souls of the people from Heaven Nether Sect.”
“Oh, could it really be them?” Jiang Yi’s eyes twinkled. The killing intent around his body intensified.
Ao Lu waved his hand. “Jiang Yi, you cannot jump to conclusions this easily. Without any evidence, you will only gather enemies everywhere. At the heart of it all, you are a human. You are the Mystic Thearch’s successor. You have to protect the human race. You cannot kill off the formidable martial artists of the human race, can you? Will you kill everyone that you suspect?
“If you really anger the human race, you will only die. Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn a boat. History has proven that anyone who went against humans did not end well. In the end, they all died horrible deaths. Don’t let your thirst for revenge seep into the deepest recesses of your heart…”
As a demon, Ao Lu was persuading Jiang Yi to protect humans. It sounded weird, but this made Jiang Yi believe that Ao Lu really had his interests at heart. He began to calm down. After pondering for a long while, he nodded. “Lord Ao Lu, your teaching is right. I have been possessed by evil.”
“The greatest virtue of a child is that he can still be taught.”
Ao Lu smiled and got to his feet. “What goes around comes around. Everything has been planned from the beginning. All we can do is try our best and keep our conscience clear. We cannot ask for much else. Jiang Yi, what you have to do now is not take revenge but train! You can only protect who you are supposed to protect if you are strong enough. Break through to the Demigod Realm first. We can talk about other things later. Righteousness may not always prevail over evil, but as long as you remain righteous, evil will give way to you!”
With that, Ao Lu left. Jiang Yi kept going through what Ao Lu said in his head. For some reason, he felt like Ao Lu had guessed something but was just not willing to say anything because he lacked evidence. The more he thought about it, the more he felt like Ao Lu was right. The key thing to do now was to train. He had to break through to the Demigod Realm before he could talk about doing other things. He was still not skillful enough. He could not kill the Battle Thearch and North Thearch; neither could he kill the remaining nine-star formidable martial artists.
Jiang Yi sat on the ground cross-legged and focused on recuperating. Once he was fully recovered, he wanted to go to the Snow Region to take a look. There was something else that he had to do: he had to make a trip to the Black Sea. Yi Chan had not said anything, but he knew that she really wanted to go there and take a look. She wanted to ascertain whether the Buddha Thearch and the others were still alive.
As for Ao Lu, Jiang Yi was completely relieved. Because of the Mystic Thearch, Ao Lu would definitely not do anything to attack the human race. The demons were very gravely injured now as well. For at least a hundred thousand years, they would not be able to recover their essence energy. At least during this period, they would not pose much of a danger to the humans.
Three days later, Jiang Yi teleported Su Ruoxue out. He asked Ao Lu to look at the Talisman Poison in her soul. Jiang Yi really wanted Ao Lu to look for a way to help her.
The disappointing thing was that even after an hour of inspection, Ao Lu shook his head helplessly. He had no clue about the Talisman Poison. This poison was much stronger than the one that Qianqian had been infected with before. It had already entered Su Ruoxue’s soul spirit. Getting it out by force would only cause damage to her soul spirit.
However, Ao Lu asked Qianqian to deliver spirit herbs that would help to recuperate one’s soul. They were meant to strengthen Su Ruoxue. According to Ao Lu, Su Ruoxue’s soul could be strengthened to a point that she could congeal a god spirit. If that happened, there was a possibility that she would be able to get the poison out herself.
“The Heaven Nether Sect!”
Jiang Yi hated the Heaven Nether Sect that much more, but he could not take the risk and look for them for revenge. On the one hand, the Heaven Nether Sect might not know that Su Ruoxue had been poisoned. Ji Tingyu was already dead. It was probable that she was the only one who knew about this poison. If Jiang Yi went looking for them, the Heaven Nether Sect might use this against him. On the other hand, he had no power to destroy the Heaven Nether Sect. Xing Mengwan alone could cause a lot of trouble for him.
Five days later!
Jiang Yi was almost fully recovered. Finally, he set off. He really liked the Mystic Martial City, but Jiang Yunhai’s skill level was way too low. If he stayed at the Mystic Martial City for too long, the demon aura might get to him. Since they had no idea how the people in Snow Region were doing either, Jiang Yi decided to go over there to check on them. Thus, he sent Qian Wanguan, Zhan Wushuang, and Jiang Yunhai ahead.
Ao Lu, Qianqian, the Shadow Emperor, and the others saw them all off. After seeing Jiang Yi enter the Mystic Divine Palace, Qianqian’s expression darkened. It was only after the Mystic Divine Palace used Heaven Evasion that Ao Lu stroked her head and said, “Qianqian, humans and demons are not to be. The only solution is for you to become a demonic goddess, form your own demon core, and turn into a True God! Perhaps then, you can be together with Jiang Yi. Otherwise, with your demon body, you can never marry a human.”
“A demon goddess?”
Qianqian laughed mirthlessly. In a bitter tone, she said, “There has not been one demon in all of history that managed to take that final step. Can Qianqian achieve such a thing?”
“If there’s a will, there’s a way.” Ao Lu smiled and led the Shadow Emperor and the others away. At the door, he turned to give Qianqian a sideways glance. “If you try hard enough, the outcome will not be important. Whether you’re a human or a demon, you must hold onto your dreams. Otherwise, you will be no different from a salted fish…”
“En!”
Qianqian nodded her head profusely, her eyes brightening. Her green hair floated in the wind. She stood alone outside the huge Mystic Martial City. The scene was absolutely breathtaking.
…
The Mystic Divine Palace used Heaven Evasion and left. This time, Jiang Yi teleported everyone back into the Moon Mirror Lake. Zhan Wushuang’s solution was very effective. During this period; Yi Chan, Mo Yao’er, and Su Ruoxue got along very well. There was a certain aura about Yi Chan that made people want to listen to her. Mo Yao’er and Su Ruoxue both were very obedient toward Yi Chan. They respected and loved her deeply.
Jiang Yi brought Xiao Fei away as well.
He allowed Ao Lu to bring the demon empress back to Mystic Martial City. Xiao Fei was still young, but it had a very formidable killing power. If he left it at Endless Deep Sea, he was afraid that Xiao Fei would be taught to hurt humans. If the Shadow Emperor used her powers and sent her to the East Imperial Continent secretly, Jiang Yi was afraid that countless cities would be destroyed.
Thus, he decided to bring Xiao Fei together with him. On the one hand, he genuinely liked Xiao Fei; and she wanted to follow him as well. On the other hand, he could use this chance to influence her growth with some of his own principles, so that she would not develop a deep hatred toward humans.
“Hoho, Big Sister Xiaonu, come quick! Let’s go and swim!”
Xiao Fei had become a young lady dressed in pink robes now, playing beside the Moon Mirror Lake. Jiang Xiaonu, Su Ruoxue, and Mo Yao’er all liked her a lot. Yi Chan and Jiang Yi sat in the pavilion, looking at them play.
“Yi Chan, how does one congeal a god spirit?”
Jiang Yi wanted to talk to Yi Chan about serious business. He had to congeal a god spirit for himself as soon as he could in order to become a Demigod. Very seriously, he said, “We can go to the Buddha Thearch City first before going to the Snow Region. We’ll go to the Black Sea last. Before we arrive there, I want to become a Demigod.”
“It’s simple!”
The ring in Yi Chan’s hand lit up. A jade box appeared, which she handed to Jiang Yi. “There are ten divine silkworms here. My grandfather used a special method to capture them. If you refine these divine silkworms, your soul spirit will improve. I will teach you how to congeal a god spirit later on.”
“This…”
Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow. “This was given to you by your Grandfather for you to break through, right? How can I use your—?”
“Hehe.”
Yi Chan giggled. Shyly, she looked down and said, “What’s mine is yours. Why should we be so calculative among ourselves?”
Jiang Yi’s heart skipped a beat. He felt exceptionally moved. How could a man not give his all for a beautiful woman to whom he was indebted?
