Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

The Green Eagle King left and brought Jiang Xiaonu along with him. Jiang Yi could not do anything but watch them leave. He had no skills to stop them and had no reason to stop them either. That was Jiang Xiaonu’s biological father.

The two faces in the sky disappeared slowly. Jiang Yi’s body could not hold itself any longer as well. Finally, he knelt down on one knee. If not for the Fire Dragon Sword, he would have collapsed on the ground earlier. The Green Eagle King’s powers were too frightening. Although he did not attack Jiang Yi directly, his terrifying aura alone was enough to cause Jiang Yi’s internal organs to rupture and his bones to break.

What hurt the most in Jiang Yi… was his heart!

Jiang Yi’s heart had already been severely hurt back at the Saint Spirit Mountain. He did not have enough skills so all he could do was watch as Yi Piaopiao got crushed by the weight of Saint Spirit Mountain, without being able to rescue her. This time, the same thing was happening. He did not have enough skills so all he could do was watch as Jiang Xiaonu got taken away.

He lowered his head and closed his eyes, his heart burning with rage. His thirst to become more powerful only intensified. He swore in his heart that even the heavens would not be able to close his eyes. He did not want anyone to be able to decide his fate any longer. He wanted to become the most powerful man in the Earth Domain; the most formidable martial artist in the Earth Domain. He did not want to endure pain like this any longer!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Countless formidable martial artists flew into the sky, helping to rescue Di Ming and Jiutian Wu. The Green Eagle King did not deal killing blows on them. All of them were gravely injured, but none of them were dead. Mo Lingqiu scanned the surroundings and had no choice but to invite the group into the City Lord’s Residence. He allowed them to rest for a while before going out to get rid of the Netherworld Race. Since they were so gravely injured already, there was a risk that the people of the Netherworld Race would be able to kill them easily.

At last, Jiang Yi could not hold himself any longer and passed out. He was carried into a room and allowed to rest. Mo Lingqiu endured his own injuries and began to gather troops and resources from the various other cities. The formidable martial artists from their city were already injured. They could not go out to battle immediately. He had no choice but to send other troops to hold the fort for now.

The good thing was that they were all formidable martial artists. In just over twenty hours, their injuries came under control. The rate of their recovery was terrifying, and their physical bodies were so strong. However, Jiang Yi still had not woken up. This meant that the group still could not go out to battle. All they could do was continue to recuperate and wait for Jiang Yi to regain consciousness.

Jiang Yi remained in a deep sleep for an entire day and night. When he woke up, he felt much better. He could finally move around without much difficulty. Without saying a single word, he led the group to teleport away from the city. Mo Lingqiu did not say anything either. He only instructed the rest of the group to protect Jiang Yi well.

The group began to teleport to the most dangerous city, Flooded Lake City. Once they arrived there, they discovered that the situation outside was precarious indeed. It was said that almost a million soldiers had already died in battle.

There were too many Netherworld Realm soldiers. They could not depend on the protective layer around the city alone to hold the fort. The moment it broke open, the civilians would be in danger. Although the Teleportation Formation had been moving people out of the city nonstop—if the people from the tribe came up here as well, there would be far too many civilians in the city. The Teleportation Formation could only send so many people each time.

Jiang Yi and company arrived and immediately caused the entire city to burst into action, inspired. Jiang Yi did not waste any time talking nonsense. Instead, in a low voice, he shouted, “Kill!”

The protective layer broke open, and the group flew out towards a group of human soldiers who were engaged in a bitter fight. Among the twenty of them, eighteen people joined this battle to kill the Netherworld Generals. Jiang Yi led Di Ming and Jiutian Wu around to look for more resources. At the same time, he kept rescuing human martial artists who had been demonized.

In four hours, the entire situation came under control.

The eighteen fighters were as fierce as tigers. With the help of Jiang Yi’s Xiaozhuan characters, the Netherworld Generals seemed much easier to kill. Once all the Netherworld Generals were killed, only the Netherworld Envoys would be left. Then, they would be able to massacre them. In four hours, Jiang Yi saved at least thousands of people, thus preventing people from becoming demonized.

“Go!”

When he was sure that the situation was under control, Jiang Yi shouted, expressionless. Di Ming and Jiutian Wu looked at him worriedly. The former asked, “Jiang Yi, do you want a break? You don’t look very good…”

“There is no need!”

Jiang Yi shouted in a low voice before turning around to fly towards the city. The entire group could only follow him into the Teleportation Formation towards the second city.

Six hours later, the situation in the second city was under control as well. The formidable martial artists had not recovered yet, and so they still looked quite exhausted. Once Jiang Yi stabilized the situation, he immediately moved on to the third city without resting for a second.

Then the fourth, the fifth… the sixth…

Just like that, he kept running from city to city nonstop. Even though he had not been injured too gravely, the group was afraid that he would collapse on the battlefield if he continued to wear himself out like this. At first, only Jiutian Wu and Di Ming were protecting him. However, slowly, two more joined them.

Five Lower-Domain days had already passed. Jiang Yi and company went to eighteen different cities, stabilizing the situation in each of those cities. The Heaven Nether Divine Formation had already been broken. There was no way for the Netherworld Realm to continue sending soldiers in. This time, most Netherworld Generals who had snuck in had already been killed. They no longer posed a threat to the various cities. The remainder of the Netherworld Army was constituted by Netherworld Slaves. It was only a matter of time before they were wiped out completely.

Di Ming and company started to make their way back. They had no choice but to do so… because Jiang Yi passed out on the battlefield and was almost taken out by one of the Netherworld Generals. The group immediately decided to take him back to the city and helped him to settle down. They left five people behind to take care of them while the others returned to the battlefield to provide more support.

Jiang Yi had gone all out this time. He had not even recovered fully, and yet he fought consecutively for five days. Using his Xiaozhuan characters nonstop had caused him to severely deplete his energy, leading to over-exhaustion. He passed out because his soul spirit was too weak; he could not take the work any longer.

He slept for seven full Lower-Domain days. During this time, Mo Lingqiu gathered a huge army and began to fight back. The Netherworld Realm Army was completely subdued. Perhaps in a little over half a month, the entire calamity would have passed.

At the same time, Mo Lingqiu ordered the Earth Emanations Army soldiers in various cities to search all of Earth Emanations Domain to look for the place where the Netherworld Realm soldiers secretly gathered. This time, he was prepared to destroy all of these gathering places to prevent history from repeating itself.

This incident was destined to leave a black mark in the history of the Earth Emanations Domain. Six cities and tribes had been destroyed, and hundreds of millions of civilians had been killed. The battle that followed killed at least ten million top, formidable martial artists. These were no ordinary martial artists; the least of them was a God King.

Although this loss did not seriously harm Earth Emanations Domain’s essence energy, it had a big impact nonetheless. Even the Earth Emanations Sovereign and Mo Lingqiu themselves almost got killed in the process. This meant that a calamity was about to befall Earth Emanations Domain. It was likely that the Earth Emanations Domain would see a change in the sovereign.

Of course…!

Of course, nobody spread the word that the Earth Emanations Sovereign and company almost got killed. This was extremely embarrassing; why would the twenty-one of them go out and spread the news?

An intriguing appointment was then made, causing the big and small family clans in Earth Emanations Domain to realize that something was amiss. The Earth Emanations Sovereign and Ye Sheng gave Jiang Yi the same title at the same time: Battle God Jiang Yi!

Normally, people who were given such titles had either reached the Demon-Killing Battle God Realm or had made some kind of unique contribution. Jiang Yi may have made a huge contribution this time, but his skill level was way too low. He was far from being given a title, much less from both the Earth Emanations Sovereign and Ye Sheng.

This was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that the Earth Emanations Sovereign offered another reward: he gave Blue Eagle Prefecture to Jiang Yi and renamed it ‘Jiang Yi Residence’.

This was a never-before-seen reward. Even Mo Lingqiu had no right to name a piece of land after himself. The Qin Clan was the most powerful clan under the Earth Emanations Sovereign, and they owned many cities and territories. The ten great family clans themselves also secretly controlled many territories. However, all of these things were only done in secret. There was no formal recognition of these ownerships in the names of those territories. Now that Blue Eagle Prefecture had been given to Jiang Yi officially, it would remain Jiang Yi’s home for generations to come.

Once news of this spread, the entire Earth Emanations Domain was shaken. Even Di Ming and company could not understand. The Earth Emanations Sovereign’s rewards were a bit too extravagant this time, weren’t they?

Only Mo Lingqiu understood what was happening. The Earth Emanations Sovereign was making a very wise move indeed. Giving Jiang Yi a piece of land would make Earth Emanations Domain Jiang Yi’s home. Unless Jiang Yi became the lord of his own domain, he would always remain tied to the Earth Emanations Domain’s war chariot.
