Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Even though his heart was prepared, Jiang Yi was still rather shocked by this news. He truly was the son of Divine Martial Kingdom’s protector, no.1 combatant, legendary invincible existence, and the only Liege Lord that didn’t have the family name of the royalty! He, Jiang Yi, wasn’t an illegitimate child—or an unwanted child—and actually had esteemed status? He was a highness of the Divine Martial Kingdom?

Highness? Bullshit!

Jiang Yi let out a sneer of mockery. When he was ostracized by the Jiang Clan, where was the Liege Lord? When he was knocked unconscious by Jiang Ruhu, where was the Liege Lord? When he and Jiang Xiaonu were abused by others, where was the Liege Lord? On the many times that he almost died, where was the Liege Lord?

If his father had never appeared during his most miserable moments in life, why did he even need this father? Or need the status of a ‘prince?’ He didn’t desire for such status and was even disgusted by it!

Jiang Yi remained silent while Jiang Yunhai began to speak again after a pause: “Young Lord, your status would be exposed sooner or later. Jiang Bieli will come to seek after you soon enough, too; you better be prepared. You do not have to worry about Jiang Xiaonu and my safety. Jiang Yiliu does not have the authority to give orders to Soul Travel Realm experts. What I want to let you know is that—Madam may not have handled this well, but she has an extremely kind heart. She is a very competent woman and even helped Jiang Bieli many times. Had it not been for Madam, Jiang Bieli would not have been able to rise to the position as Western Garrison Liege Lord. But… not only did Jiang Bieli not give her any status, but he even sent assassins after she left, causing her heart to be completely in grief. If not, Madam would not have died at such a young age…”

“Bang!”

Jiang Yi clenched his fist tightly and punched on the walls of the cave. He looked at Jiang Yunhai with a side glance. “Grandfather, there is no need to say anything else. I know what to do. I, Jiang Yi, am an orphan. I do not have a father in the past; neither would I have one in the future. And… I will diligently cultivate to attain Purple Mansion Realm, Soul Travel Realm, and Vajra Realm! The day I have enough strength would be the day I seize Jiang Bieli and bring him to my mother’s grave to repent.”

“Good! If you are truly able to do that, Madam will definitely be smiling even in the underworld!”

Jiang Yunhai slightly nodded; he retrieved a package on his back and handed it over to Jiang Yi. “In here are some elixirs and an earth-tier martial skill. If the elixirs aren’t enough, get Qian Wanguan to send a message to me; but be careful of him. The members of Qian Clan are all merchants, and they are adept at using people. Do not be schemed by him. And… Zhan Wushuang is a person worth making a friend with. As long as nothing bad happens, he would definitely be an elite class combatant of the Divine Martial Kingdom.”

Jiang Yi received the items and looked Jiang Yunhai. “Grandfather, you be careful, too. While I am inside the college, no one would dare to kill me.”

“En, contact me anytime through Qian Wanguan. I shall return first!”

Jiang Yunhai patted on Jiang Yi’s shoulder and looked outside. His body flashed and vanished into the shrubs. Soon after he left, Qian Wanguan appeared immediately and nonchalantly spoke to Jiang Yi, “Boss, it is about time to head back.”

Jiang Yi nodded, and the two of them walked out of the cave. A lot of Write-In Cadets returned after their demonic beasts hunting. They were surrounding the mentor as they handed over the materials of the demonic beasts.

“Eh? What is that?”

Jiang Yi could see the mentor making an inventory of the materials that the cadets submitted like the spikes from the wild boar demonic beast or the venom gland from a venomous snake demonic beast. After he noted it down, the mentor waved his hand; and those materials actually disappeared? He asked Qian Wanguan what was happening because of the extremely mystical and shocking scene.

“This is an Ancient Divine Essence Ring, a great item!”

There were glimmers in the eyes of Qian Wanguan as he lamented, “This item is as precious as Jiang Yiliu’s ancient divine war chariot. There are at most one hundred of these rings in the entire continent. It has the ability to store a large number of items within a mysterious space. My clan has a total of three rings, but it’s a pity that I am unworthy to have it. If Mentor Zhao wasn’t a leader of this team, he wouldn’t have the opportunity to use it either.”

As they spoke, around eight cadets frantically ran down from the mountain. Qian Wanguan gave them some eye signal and said, “Come boss, my men are here. Let’s go and hand over the materials.”

Jiang Yi followed Qian Wanguan and headed towards the approaching men. Before they were even near to the two of them, they all began to salute, “Young Master Qian, Young Master Jiang!”

Jiang Yi felt uncomfortable as he gestured with a wave. “Don’t call me Young Master, I am not a Young Master. Just call me Jiang Yi.”

These men were rather confused, but Qian Wanguan explained to them, “Just call him boss. He is my boss and is naturally your boss.”

“Boss!” These eight men, who were clearly the members of the Qian Clan, greeted in unison. Jiang Yi rubbed his nose as he felt as though he was a leader of an underworld group when they greeted him as boss.

These people then swiftly took out and handed over several venomous fangs, spikes, and horns to Jiang Yi and Qian Wanguan. There weren’t many valuable materials on a demonic beast; there was normally just one on each beast. These valuable materials could be used to refine elixirs or be crafted into weapons and armor.

After handing over the materials, every cadet began to return to the college along with the mentor. Halfway back to the college, another two teams walked over with poise. It was obvious that they too were Write-In Cadets who went out to hunt for demonic beasts.

Jiang Qilin! Yue Mei’er!

Jiang Yi spotted them from a distance and quickly went to hide. Qian Wanguan noticed them too, but he was filled with a smile instead—like he met some old acquaintance.

Three of the teams quickly converged, and as expected, Jiang Qilin spotted Qian Wanguan and Jiang Yi, too. He didn’t approach them but glared viciously at Jiang Yi instead.

“Little thief!”

That pretty young miss, who wore a red dress, swiftly approached instead. She clenched her teeth and cursed at Jiang Yi with a death stare. The edges of Jiang Yi’s mouth twitched as he pretended he didn’t hear her.

Qian Wanguan was unhappy as he glared back. “Who are you scolding ‘little thief?’ Yue Mei’er, I didn’t steal your underpants!”

“You…”

Yue Mei’er’s eyes were spitting fire; her clan was in the royal city, but she knew clearly of how influential the Qian Clan was. She clenched her silver teeth and viciously glared at Jiang Yi. “Hurhur, little thief, you shall wait and see! I will let you pay the price sooner or later.”

Yue Mei’er twisted her well-rounded butt and walked off. Qian Wanguan came near to Jiang Yi with crafty eyes and asked, “Boss, that chick seems to have some grudge against you. Did you play with her without paying?”

“Get lost!”

Jiang Yi was shamed by the anger and swept a slap across, but it was dodged by the quick-witted fatty. Jiang Yi sneaked a peek at the distant Yue Mei’er and whispered while he asked, “I have once offended that person. What is her status? Is there any threat?”

“She isn’t much of a threat by herself!”

The fatty began to speak softly and frowned with some concern. “The women of Yue Clan are all innately talented in the arts of the elixir refinement. The motive of this Yue Mei’er for entering the college is definitely to seek a prodigious cadet for pairing cultivation. If her future pairing cultivation partner has both strength and status, then it will be troublesome. This chick has some beauty, and her strength is on par, too. With such seductive skills that are bred in her bones, it would be too easy to attract any man…”

“Sigh!”

Jiang Yi let out a sigh as he felt that there were enemies everywhere, which made him feel uncomfortable. But in his heart, the burning desire to get stronger ignited once again.

“Hehe, boss, why not take this chick for yourself!”

Qian Wanguan let out a wretched laugh and said, “If you can use this chick from the Yue Clan to cultivate, it would be extremely beneficial and fast! She will definitely not approve of me with my strength. But if you take her for yourself, would this chick still seek trouble with you? If you want to make a move, I will absolutely support you.”

“Great idea!”

Jiang Yi nodded and patted on the shoulder of Qian Wanguan, “I shall trouble you to bring this chick to my room tonight… Young Master Qian.”
