Chapter 1705: Who do You Think You Are?

Jiang Yi did not even bother thinking how he was supposed to leave the Flying Feather Command without anyone noticing; he knew that the Dao Clan would have arranged everything. Hence, when that spy had brought him to the Teleportation Formation, he had entered it without hesitating.

Although he didn’t know where he was teleporting to, he knew that if the enemy wanted to kill him, they had to do it in a secluded place and couldn’t leave any traces of their deed.

The Dao Clan had invested so many resources to set this trap and was waiting for him to walk into it; what did this mean?

That meant the Dao Clan did not want to blow this matter up and did not want anyone to know that they were responsible. Since that was the case, they definitely wouldn’t attack Jiang Yi at a transit station; he still had a chance at survival.

Jiang Yi’s departure caused an uproar in the entire Flying Feather Command. Two Great General Lords immediately pursued Jiang Yi and teleported away. However, once they reached the transit station, they realized that ten Teleportation Formations had been destroyed and the guards at this transit station had all disappeared.

This transit station could teleport to eight other transit stations and seven mystic realms. Now that ten Teleportation Formations had been destroyed, no one knew where Jiang Yi had gone to.

Heavenly King Yun and Heavenly King Wei immediately flew to the Flying Feather Command. Heavenly King Yun was beside himself while Heavenly King Wei’s face looked very serious.

The two had thought that if they remained in Nine Yang Valley and kept watch over the Flying Feather Command, nothing would happen. So much time had passed, and the two had thought that the Dao Clan had given up hopes of revenge as well. In the past seven months, the Dao Clan had been busy running here and there; who would have thought that they actually had an ulterior motive? That was to nab Jiang Yi.

“Too careless; too careless! Jiang Yi is befuddled, going to court his death like this!”

Heavenly King Yun was furious as he pranced about the central hall; he and Heavenly King Wei were waiting for news. The entire army had been mobilized and started to pursue the spy and any traces or clues. As for the two Great General Lords who had gone to pursue Jiang Yi, they were waiting for their return as well.

Swish!

A Great General Lord suddenly flew in, holding an interspatial ring in his hand. He delivered it to Heavenly King Wei as he said, “My two Commanders-in-chief, this was found in Jiang Yi’s secret cultivation room.”

“Oh?”

Heavenly King Wei received the ring as he sent his divine senses inwards. There was nothing except a seal stone. He hurriedly took out that seal stone, injected his heavenly powers and a scene appeared in midair.

“En?”

Three men were being bound by cold chains in that image, and there were hordes of martial artists surrounding them. The scene finally froze on Dao Ren, and Heavenly King Wei and Heavenly King Yun’s faces immediately darkened. Heavenly King Wei roared out in rage, “It is indeed the Dao Clan? To kill Jiang Yi, Dao Nu has become so shameless to even hold people hostage? He had actually used the Titled God Demon-Trapping Formation as well?”

Bang!

Suddenly, the seal stone exploded, and the image disappeared. Everyone in the central hall was stunned. Heavenly King Wei recovered swiftly as he grew even more infuriated. “They have also added restrictions to this seal stone so that it would explode after being used twice? Dao Nù, you guys still want to destroy all evidence and want to shirk responsibility?”

Swish!

From outside, two figures flew in. The two Great General Lords had returned. They reported the destruction of the ten Teleportation Formations; this time, Heavenly King Wei and Heavenly King Yun were really angry.

“That image just now— where was that place?”

Heavenly King Wei scanned and looked at the higher echelons of the Flying Feather Command gathered in the central hall. One person thought for a moment and said, “It seems to be in the Longtan Mystic Realm; among the mystic realms nearby, only the Longtan Mystic Realm has such a huge lake!”

“Longtan Mystic Realm?”

Heavenly King Wei and Heavenly King Yun exchanged a glance as their eyes flashed cold. Heavenly King Yun shouted, “That’s right. The Dao Clan had first started behaving suspiciously in the Longtan Mystic Realm. Everything done since then was to cover their tracks.”

“Someone, come!”

Heavenly King Wei howled. “Give my order: besides the armies belonging to the six commanders-in-chief that are not around, all the other thirty armies are to head to outside the spatial zone and surround the Longtan Mystic Realm! Ask Thirteenth Brother and Eighteenth Brother to hold the fort in Nine Yang City; every other Heavenly King is to head out to battle.”

“Second Brother, let’s go!”

Heavenly King Wei’s killing aura surged as he walked out briskly with Heavenly King Yun following beside him. The two Heavenly Kings were really angry this time. If Jiang Yi died, the two would definitely slaughter all the Dao Clan senior members.

With Heavenly King Wei’s order, the entire Nine Yang Army was mobilized. From countless mystic realms, soldiers started teleporting to the area outside the spatial zone and speedily headed to surround the Longtan Mystic Realm.

Heavenly King Wei and Heavenly King Yun headed out first while out of the remaining twenty-eight Heavenly Kings—besides the two that were to remain, the other twenty-six all were activated. Such a large-scale deployment of troops and formidable martial artists had never been seen before historically unless it was to fight against the Netherworld Realm.

Nine Yang City was in an uproar as every great family clan’s scouts started to relay information back. The whole Heaven Domain was soon buzzing as all the eyes that were focusing on the ancient site initially were now shifted to what was going on in Nine Yang City.

The Longtan Mystic Realm was not far from the Heaven Primordial Domain. Based on Jiang Yi’s speed, he would take one Lower-Domain day to reach it. This mystic realm actually did not have a Teleportation Formation. Previously, when the Netherworld Race had wanted to build a Teleportation Formation here, it had been destroyed many times by the human race and vice versa. Ultimately, no side managed to successfully build one; they could only keep sending troops to vie over this mystic realm.

The Longtan Mystic Realm was vast. As it was near to the Heaven Primordial Domain, it was the perfect springboard into the Heaven Primordial Domain. Once the Netherworld Race gained control of this mystic realm, they could continuously send reinforcements to this place in preparation for an assault on the Heaven Primordial Domain. The Heaven Domain naturally couldn’t allow the Netherworld Realm to gain control of this mystic realm, and that’s why the fighting here had always been very intense.

Not only the Longtan Mystic Realm, but all the huge mystic realms near the Heaven Primordial Domain were also facing the same bitter struggle.

As the Netherworld Thearch had not yet reappeared and the Heaven Primordial Domain gathered all the human race’s formidable martial artists, the Netherworld Race still did not have sufficient strength for a major invasion and could only prepare as well as they could for now. Since the human race was determined to protect the Heaven Primordial Domain, all the nearby mystic realms had to be taken over. If not, they wouldn’t even know when the Netherworld Realm armies would come.

…

Jiang Yi teleported three times and finally arrived at the transit station closest to the Longtan Mystic Realm. This transit station did not even have a single person here. The guards here had either been killed or diverted away.

Boom! Boom!

When Jiang Yi and that spy reached this transit station, the spy destroyed the Teleportation Formation here without hesitation. Jiang Yi was not at all surprised as he coldly watched this person, without any indication of wanting to attack.

“Jiang Yi, fly in this direction for more than twenty hours; you will reach the Longtan Mystic Realm. If you want to rescue the hostages, follow me!”

After the spy destroyed the Teleportation Formation, his gaze turned to Jiang Yi as he spoke. The spy added, “Don’t even think about holding me hostage; I am an insignificant person. However, if I were to die, Phantom King, Earth Emanations Sovereign, and Wintry Sovereign would all have to die.”

“What a joke!”

Jiang Yi sneered and replied, “Who do you think you are? Even if I kill you and I don’t head to the Longtan Mystic Realm, would the Dao Clan clansmen dare to kill them? Stop talking and lead the way.”

“Uh?”

The spy’s expression changed as a sliver of animosity flashed in his eyes. However, he didn’t dare to reply. Jiang Yi was right. Even if Jiang Yi killed him, the Dao Clan wouldn’t mind at all.

Swish!

The spy led the way westward as Jiang Yi’s heavenly powers circulated as an aura suddenly emanated from him as he speedily followed along. The spy cast his divine senses forward as his expression changed. Jiang Yi had actually been masking his aura just now and had finally just fully unleashed it. The spy now finally knew that Jiang Yi had actually broken through to the King-Ranked Realm!

“Hur-hur!”

However, the spy snorted internally. So what if Jiang Yi was King-Ranked? Dao Leng and Dao Nù were probably hiding near the Longtan Mystic Realm, right? Before long, Jiang Yi would die a miserable death.
