Chapter 1517: This is a Madman
“Jiang Yi, even as a ghost, I will not let you off… ah!”
“Ah…”
As time went by, people were killed one by one. The remaining people were all injured as well. The Sword Emanations Race beings’ baneful aura caused their minds to be more and more dazed. Without the aura, this group of Titled Battle Gods would not have fallen after only such a short time. They should have easily been able to hang on for a few Lower-Domain days and nights.
The baneful aura did not make any sound or take any form; there was no way for the group to defend themselves against it. This was not a spiritual attack, or one could say that it was an extremely high-level spiritual attack. It quietly affected them so that they did not even realize they were being attacked.
As he saw his companions die one by one and that only eight of them out of the initial twenty remained, You Hong’s eyes turned red. The plan had been perfect, but Jiang Yi ruined everything in the end. Now, it looked like everyone was going to perish!
It was alright if the rest of them died. Although their surname was ‘You’, they were not actual disciples of the You Clan, but mere guards for the You Clan. You Tianni, on the other hand, could not die. He was the You Clan’s only grandson. The Divine Yang Race had a hard time bearing descendants. If You Tianni died, the You Clan would not have anyone to carry on the family name.
“Why isn’t that group of people coming over? If they take any longer, we will die!”
You Hong felt extremely frustrated in his heart. They had already sent a voice transmission to the twenty-thousand-strong army. The army had many young masters from great family clans and many formidable martial artists as well. If they came to their aid, the group would have hope of surviving.
At the very least…
Jiang Yi could not kill You Tianni in front of so many people, could he? If he did, there would be cold, hard proof. Even the Earth Emanations Sovereign would not be able to save Jiang Yi then.
“You bastards, you are so afraid of death that you don’t want to come and rescue us!” You Hong cursed in his heart. At that moment, they heard a voice cry out in anger from afar, “Young Master You, don’t panic! We are here to save you! Kill!”
You Hong and the remaining people’s eyes suddenly cleared up, their divine senses scanning in the distance. Indeed, in the west, a huge army was flying towards them.
You Hong immediately used his heavenly powers to amplify his voice as he screamed, “Jiang Yi, are you still not going to make these Sword Emanations Race beings stop? Young Master Bai Ditian, Young Master Qiu Ren, and the others are all here. Are you going to murder my young master in front of all these people? Or do you dare to attack these young masters as well? Do you want to make the entire Earth Domain your enemy? Are you sure that your Earth Emanations Sovereign can save you? When the various domains join forces against you, the Earth Emanations Domain will be flattened for sure.”
You Hong was very smart with his words. First, he was trying to frighten Jiang Yi. Second, he wanted to encourage the young masters. Third, he wanted to drag all the other young masters in as well. If Jiang Yi really dared to kill all twenty thousand of them, the Earth Domain will fly into a frenzy for sure. Countless great family clans would join forces to flatten the Earth Emanations Domain.
Far away, the normally gentle and elegant Bai Ditian cried out from among the army, “Jiang Yi, there is still time to stop this! If you kill Young Master You, even heaven and earth would not let you go!”
“That’s right!”
Qiu Ren’s cold voice sounded as well. “Jiang Yi, stop this immediately. There is still room to turn around. Otherwise, even the Earth Emanations Sovereign would not be able to save you!”
“Jiang Yi…”
Countless young masters shouted at him. You Hong and company had sent voice transmissions to them, telling them that Jiang Yi was employing some demonic arts to control the Sword Emanations Race beings, causing them to surround the group and kill them. They pleaded with the young masters to rescue them. At first, the young masters did not dare to come over. After all, if Young Maser You, Yi Wu, and the others could not defeat Jiang Yi; they would be sending themselves to death if they went over as well.
At last, Bai Ditian and Qiu Ren encouraged everybody. There were so many young masters from various clans among them. This army of twenty thousand soldiers contained close to two hundred young masters from great family clans. Bai Ditian and Qiu Ren did not believe that Jiang Yi would really dare to attack them. What’s more, they had with them the formidable martial artists from all the different clans. It was not clear who would win the fight.
“Shut up!”
While the army was shouting and causing a commotion, Jiang Yi suddenly shouted in a cool tone. His voice echoed throughout the surroundings, causing everyone to turn to look in the same direction. They found that the voice was coming from among the hundreds of thousands of Sword Emanations Race beings. Jiang Yi must have hidden himself among them. Many formidable martial artists wanted to lock their gazes in on Jiang Yi and kill him, but they did not dare to do anything rash.
“This is a feud between me and You Tianni!” Jiang Yi continued speaking in a cool tone. “All of you, get lost! If you dare to join the fight and rescue You Tianni, then don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
Jiang Yi’s voice was so chilling that they felt it in their bones. The army’s hearts thudded. After Jiang Yi finished speaking, a hundred thousand Sword Emanations Race beings flew towards the twenty-thousand-strong army. At last, they stopped thirty kilometers in front of the army, their sharp killing intent overwhelming them. It was obvious that they were ready to attack at any time.
Ss, ss!
Many people did not believe that Jiang Yi could really control the Sword Emanations Race beings at first, but now, they did. Some people sucked in a deep breath. No matter what demonic arts Jiang Yi was employing, at least, at that moment; he was the chief. He had the power to kill every single one of them.
There were twenty thousand of them; there were more than a thousand Demon-Killing Battle Gods and a significant number of Titled Battle Gods as well. Their combined battle ability was spectacular. Yet, all of it would be useless if they met a huge army of Sword Emanations Race. This army of twenty thousand soldiers could still be reduced to nothing.
Many young masters’ hearts began to race as they entertained the thought of retreating. However, their leaders—Bai Ditian and Qiu Ren—did not retreat. Naturally, they did not dare to run away just yet, for fear of being mocked by others. How would they continue to hold their heads up high in Demon-Buster Army if they ran away now?
Bai Ditian and Qiu Ren were beginning to get anxious as well. Many of their guards were sending voice transmissions to them, asking them to retreat as well. However, the two of them just could not make up their minds. They had spent a good amount of effort forging such a good relationship with You Tianni. They could depend on You Tianni alone to help them obtain battle merits rapidly and ensure their smooth-sailing lives in the Demon-Buster Army. If You Tianni died, they probably would not be allowed to stay behind in the Demon-Buster Army much longer.
The most important thing was that they were feeling indignant. If they got scared away by just one sentence from Jiang Yi and people found out about this, their reputations would be dragged through the mud. Both of them were facing their own mental demons. Perhaps after this, both of them would not see any more improvement in their skills.
What was Jiang Yi?
He was just a lowly martial artist who ascended from the Lower Domain and who got extremely lucky. He was a small character who had to depend on the Earth Emanations Sovereign’s power to get to where he was. They were of noble backgrounds, members of the indigenous divine races. They were the young masters of some of the greatest clans of the Earth Domain!
Since when were lowly martial artists who ascended from the Lower Domain capable of suppressing the indigenous divine races?
The pride in their bones prevented Bai Ditian and Qiu Ren from retreating. Bai Ditian gritted his teeth and said, “Jiang Yi, are you going to wage war against all the family clans of the Earth Domain? You must consider this properly. If you dare to touch us, the various domains will not let you off. Nobody in this world would be able to save you then.”
Qiu Ren continued in a cool tone, “Let him kill us. I want to see how gutsy he can be. If he had the guts, he would kill every last one of us!”
“I will count to three. If you don’t get lost, all of your bodies will remain here!”
Jiang Yi shouted aggressively, interrupting Qiu Ren mid-sentence. What’s more, he did not hesitate at all. He immediately started counting, “Three!”
“Wow!”
The army of twenty thousand people went into a flurry at once. Many people began to fidget, and many other people cursed Jiang Yi for being a madman who had become demonized. They said that he was a lackey of the Netherworld Realm.
“Two!”
The bustling army suddenly fell silent again. Many people’s eyes glinted. It was obvious that they badly wanted to retreat. A few guards from the other great family clans were already preparing to lead their young masters away.
“Young Lord… are you really going to kill them? There are close to two hundred young masters from great family clans here!”
The Poison Spirit gulped down a mouthful of saliva. He was beginning to think that his young lord was even crazier than he was. Back then, he had only destroyed one small city. Now, Jiang Yi was going to massacre close to two hundred young masters of great family clans!
“One!”
Jiang Yi did not pay any attention to the Poison Spirit whatsoever. Instead, he cried out the final word. The moment he shouted, the hundred thousand Sword Emanations Race beings charged forward. A million thorns shot out of their backs. They were moving with complete coordination, causing the air to fill with what looked like arrows emanating killing intent. The twenty thousand soldiers were at once overwhelmed.
“Run—!”
Countless men shouted in a panic. Many great family clans’ guards roared, hurrying to lead the young masters from their clans away. Jiang Yi was not trying to scare them. He was prepared to do what he said he would. From afar, hundreds of thousands of Sword Emanations Race beings were already charging towards them. If they did not run now, they would be surrounded. Then, there would really be no way out.
Bai Ditian and Qiu Ren ran away as well. Both of them were led away by the guards from their own family clans. Qiu Ren watched as countless people behind him were stabbed by the thorns in the air. In a blink of an eye, only fifteen thousand out of the twenty thousand soldiers remained. His face drained of all color at once. Panicked, he mumbled, “Madman… this is a madman!”
