Chapter 1085: I Do Not Have any Other Choice!

Revenge, this is definitely revenge!

Jiang Yi and Yi Chan exchanged glances and he immediately understood her intentions. Her appearance publicly and praising him in front of so many people, together with her greeting him, were all moves intended to give him trouble.

What status was Yi Chan? What was Li Tian compared to that? Even if Li Tian and Yin Ruobing were on good terms, it wasn’t worth Yi Chan lowering herself to come and meet Jiang Yi proactively. Yi Chan was extremely lofty-minded and looked down on all the men of the world; she didn’t even take to heart that She Fei had broken through to become a Demigod. How could she look up to a mere young master of the Li Clan?

Jiang Yi figured that Yi Chan should have guessed his identity already. The previous time at the Purgatory Ruin—though the two had only exchanged a single glance, Yi Chan was already instinctively suspicious of him. After that, she had even directly exposed him on the Painting Cliffs. Although at that time she did not know that Bai Yi was Jiang Yi—after Jiang Yi killed Wu Ni, his true identity was made known to the world. Yi Chan must have figured everything out then.

Yin Ruobing had also said that Yi Chan had some special mystical ability that could see illusions; even if she could not see through his Mirage Divine Ability, she could more or less feel something about it. Yi Chan also knew Jiang Yi too well. It was not surprising that she could see through him so quickly.

Previously, Jiang Yi had promised Yi Chan that he would give her an answer after the Buddha Thearch’s birthday banquet. However, he left without a word and had also hidden the fact that he was Jiang Yi from her. Yi Chan had once saved his life in the Desolate East Sea. Although he had no choice but to hide his identity from her, it was indeed wrong of Jiang Yi to do so. It was normal that Yi Chan was angry with him. However, Jiang Yi did not expect her to publicly seek revenge like this.

Swish! Swish!

The restrictions on many of the Heaven Fate Canopies were lifted, as She Fei, Ling Qijian, Tu Long, Ye Ying, Jian Wuying, and company all came out. They looked at Jiang Yi curiously. There was even a hint of murderous intent in She Fei’s eyes. It was obvious that She Fei was feeling murderous due to Yi Chan’s attitude towards Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi saw so many of his ‘old friends’ but did not display any emotions. His mind churned as he quickly flipped open his fan and smiled lightly. He said, “To what do I owe this pleasure, that Lady Yi Chan would praise me such? I am neither good at studying nor martial arts. I am still far from good. I did not know that Lady Yi Chan also liked books? It is indeed an honor to meet you.”

Facing a group of top-notch young masters and young mistresses from the continent, Jiang Yi was neither supercilious nor obsequious. Furthermore, his eyes were clear and bright, without a sliver of affection or greed. Jiang Yi gave the impression that he was a soft-spoken man that focused on his books. He wanted to purposely misdirect people into thinking that Yi Chan had admired Li Tian because of his love for reading.

As he was gentle and refined when he spoke, this actually generated a certain amount of affection among this group of young masters and young mistresses who only knew how to fight and kill, who were pursuing the martial arts with their hearts their entire lives. The misgivings they had about Jiang Yi also dissipated by a huge amount.

Yin Ruobing hurriedly smiled widely and mediated the situation. She said, “Haha, Cousin. You shouldn’t be so humble. Big Sister Chan had read your essays before. She also admires your understanding and thoughts on zen dao.”

Yin Ruobing’s words were like a timely rain, completely dispelling any suspicion in the hearts of everyone present. However, the look of animosity in She Fei’s eyes still remained; his wedding proposal being rejected had made him even more resolute in marrying Yi Chan, and that was also the only way he could get back some of his face. He could then successfully become the young clan head and—subsequently—the next She Emperor.

This Young Master from the Li Clan had suddenly appeared and could write a good essay? He also knew the zen dao? Although these things meant nothing to She Fei as might was right for him—as long as Yi Chan had some affection for Li Tian, Li Tian was his enemy.

“Keke!”

Yi Chan smiled lightly and did not continue making trouble. She looked deeply at Jiang Yi and said, “If there is an opportunity, I would like to discuss zen with Young Master Li. I will take my leave now.”

Yi Chan entered her own Heaven Fate Canopy while Tu Long, Ling Qijian, and company all nodded at Jiang Yi before returning to their own as well. She Fei glared fiercely at Jiang Yi, giving him a warning look before heading back as well.

Only Zhan Tianlei walked up, cupped his hands, smiled, and said, “I have long heard that Ruobing had a cousin who was a universal genius. I have finally managed to meet you today. I am Zhan Tianlei, greetings to Brother Li.”

Greetings to be damned!

Jiang Yi scolded inside his heart. If it wasn’t for the battle south of the Divine Sonar Region—where the Zhan Clan had thought they could easily kill him and reveal their identity, Jiang Yi would not have known how cruel and devious this Zhan Tianlei was. For Zhan Tianlei, there was no difference in killing a person and pinching to death an ant.

Of course, Jiang Yi still respectfully bowed and said, “I see, you are Young Master Tianlei. Nice to meet you.”

“Cousin, let’s go in and talk.”

Yin Ruobing smiled sweetly and gave a look to Zhan Tianlei. The latter got the hint, cupped his hands, and left. Jiang Yi followed Yin Ruobing into her Heaven Fate Canopy.

This was the highest grade Heaven Fate Canopy that had a spatial zone inside and an elegant courtyard.

There were three stories in the courtyard, with many rooms in it. On the first floor were a few maidservants and two elders. One of them had a very strong aura; he was obviously a Demigod. The Demigod looked suspiciously at Jiang Yi, but after Yin Ruobing gave him a cold look, the elder withdrew his gaze and sat down with his eyes closed.

“Cousin, let’s talk on the second floor.”

Yin Ruobing brought Jiang Yi up to the second floor. Jiang Yi curiously took a quick measure of the Heaven Fate Canopy; he realized that it was no different from a spatial divine item. Furthermore, it was possible to send one’s divine senses out from here and clearly know what was happening outside.

There was a big hall on the second floor, with a few guest rooms. There was also a corridor at the side that led to the third floor. Once Yin Ruobing entered the second floor, she immediately activated the restrictions and used her divine senses to scan the surroundings before saying with a little trepidation, “Jiang Yi, you are too bold. You actually impersonated my cousin. Luckily, the Battle Thearch isn’t around. If not, he could easily see through your disguise; and you would die here.”

“I have always been this bold. I don’t have a choice actually. I must go into the Mystic Divine Palace to retrieve a treasure.” Jiang Yi smiled bitterly and said. He took the cup of tea that Yin Ruobing had poured for him and drank it all in one go.

“Enter the Mystic Divine Palace?”

Yin Ruobing shook her head and laughed lightly. “We have been waiting here for half a year. There still aren’t signs that the restrictions on Mystic Divine Mountain are loosening. We do not know how much longer we have to wait. If we had to wait for a few years or tens of years...”

“Keke!”

Jiang Yi smiled with much confidence and said, “It will not be that long. Half a month would be sufficient. You’d better be prepared. At that time, we will go in together.”

“Ah?”

Yin Ruobing’s face was filled with surprise and happiness. She understood quickly. “Ao Lu told you this?”

Jiang Yi waved open his fan and mimicked a learned scholar, softly fanning himself. He then closed his eyes and said, “Heaven’s secrets must not be divulged.”

“Pfff...”

Yin Ruobing shot Jiang Yi a look, saying, “You’re addicted to your new persona now? Aiya, you should transform back into your original self. This is so uncomfortable to look at.”

Jiang Yi’s body flashed with white light, and he changed back to his original self. Yin Ruobing then smiled sweetly and said, “This is so much better. If there is no one else around, you should be like this. For now, you can stay on the second floor, and then you can head to the Mystic Divine Palace half a month later. However... after you enter, there’s a high chance that your identity will be exposed. If it comes to that, it could be the Battle Thearch or the North Thearch waiting for you when you exit. Have you thought this through?”

“I do not have any other choice!”

Jiang Yi’s gazed towards the east as his divine senses locked on to the Mystic Divine Mountain that was high in the clouds. He said resolutely, “There are things that men do and do not do. There are just some things that one has to do even if it costs one’s life.”

Yin Ruobing looked at Jiang Yi’s battle-hardened face that was turned and saw the resoluteness in his expression. Her heart fluttered as a sliver of a discoloration entered her eyes. She then recalled Jiang Yi’s status and her own marriage engagement, and a bitter smile surfaced on her mouth.
