Chapter 444: Completely Slaughtered Without Exception

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There was no need for Qian Gui to remind him; Jiang Yi was already wary of the Martial Arts Hall. He knew that the Martial Arts Hall wasn’t as simple as they looked. He already knew that back when the six armies were readying themselves outside of the Stellarsky City, a single statement from the Martial Arts Chief Hall Master was enough to repel the armies.

The Kingdom Wars afterward was obviously a scheme to shave down the strength of the six kingdoms, but a single statement from the Chief Hall Master gave the six kingdoms no choice but to participate in it, which had been continued until today.

The Martial Arts Hall had been around since the continent existed, and they continued to be around until now. The Empires had been changing one after another, and there were plenty of absolute experts who were able to sweep across the entire continent. However, the Martial Arts Hall remained. This was enough to demonstrate how formidable the Martial Arts Hall was!

Shui Youlan suddenly transmitted a message: “According to my conjecture, this incident where you were trapped by the Devil Star Vine was probably conspired by the Martial Arts Hall. You better be careful. An incredible Saint Lady has appeared in the Martial Arts Hall during this period of time. She has an abnormally high level of wisdom, and you have to be careful not to fall into her schemes.”

Jiang Yi recalled the advice that Shui Youlan mentioned before she left, which caused his face to slowly turned grave. If this Devil Star Vine incident was plotted by the Martial Arts Hall, then the incidents that happened to Zhuge Qingyun—and even Yun Fei—might all be plotted by the Martial Arts Hall.

“Saint Lady Ji!”

Jiang Yi’s eyes flickered as he looked at Qian Gui while speaking in a serious tone, “Uncle Qian, help me do a detailed check. Is that Saint Lady Ji... Ji Tingyu?”

“Ji Tingyu? Alright, I will do my best!”

Qian Gui nodded. Just as Jiang Yi was preparing to say something, a figure suddenly flew over and knelt down outside the building. “Reporting to Lord Jiang, Clan Head, and Lord Qian. We have found Liu Yu, but... he is dead!”

“Dead?”

Jiang Yi, Qian Gui, and Zhan Yiming looked at one another while speaking in a dull voice, “Where is the corpse discovered?”

The Zhan Clan’s martial artist paused before replying, “The Marshal’s Mansion!”

“Zhangsun Yan?”

Zhan Yiming and Qian Gui both exclaimed while Jiang Yi just snorted. He flew out and demanded to the Zhan Clan’s martial artist. “Lead the way.”

That Zhan clansman quickly flew forward. As Jiang Yi was following from behind, Zhan Yiming and Qian Gui followed closely as well. The Yazi Beast let out a roar in the sky while it followed slowly.

The streets were filled with soldiers, and when they saw Jiang Yi and the others rushing over, they frantically stood to the side. They were afraid Jiang Yi might just instantly kill them.

Soon enough, Jiang Yi arrived at a huge mansion which was surrounded by the influential figures of the Divine Martial Kingdom. Zhangsun Yan was also waiting on the outside with the Zhangsun clansmen. When Zhangsun Yan saw Jiang Yi walking over, he quickly revealed an awful smile and bowed with cupped hands. “Jiang... Lord Jiang, there is definitely someone that is trying to frame my clan. This old man dares to put my head to vouch that I do not have any relationship with Liu Yu.”

“Shut up!”

Jiang Yi walked over in an imposing manner. He didn’t even look Zhangsun Yan and simply asked the Zhan Clan’s martial artist, “Where is the corpse? Lead me there!”

The Zhan clansman quickly walked in while Jiang Yi strutted from behind. Just as Qian Gui and Zhan Yiming wanted to enter, their ears echoed with a transmitted message: “My two honorable brothers, can I trouble the two of you to help say something nice later one. This old man is willing to give out 80% of my clan’s assets to the two of you.”

Qian Gui and Zhan Yiming looked at each other before walking in without giving a response. The Zhangsun Clan had always been the royal clan’s relatives and had always behaved arrogantly and despotic. They worked together with the Jiang Clan to suppress the other clans, taking away the assets from their two clans either openly or in the dark.

It was already considered good for these two Clan Heads not strike at the Zhangsun Clan when it was down, why would they even help Zhangsun Yan? Furthermore... if they were to help speak up for the Zhangsun Clan, what would Jiang Yi see them as?

The corpse was in a secret room of the Zhangsun Clan. Jiang Yi had already given the orders to kill, and so the Divine Martial Kingdom’s army didn’t dare to be careless and even searched the mansions of the major clans.

Due to the fact that the southern city gate’s Commander Zhang Jiang was a member of the Zhangsun Clan, one of the generals led a group of soldiers to search the Zhangsun Clan. They were even refused by the Zhangsun Clan, but that general finally barged in with his men and found Liu Yu in a secret room.

Liu Yu had committed suicide, and it was by consuming poison. After Jiang Yi checked and ascertained that it was Liu Yu’s real body, he drew his longsword and cut down Liu Yu’s head before throwing it into his Fire Spirit Pearl. He walked out in large strides and glanced at a general from the Taishi Clan. “Arrest all the Zhangsun clansmen. If there is anyone missed out, I will kill ten of your Taishi clansmen.”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The Zhangsun clansmen all turned pale, and so did the Taishi clansmen. That general of the Taishi Clan was at the peak stage of the Soul Travel Realm. He was wearing this imposing battle armor, but his post was obviously not significant in the Divine Martial Kingdom. His face changed several times before he yelled out, “Royal Guards, listen to my orders and take down the Marshal’s entire clan!”

“You dare!” Zhangsun Yan was furious, and his eyes were glaring with anger.

Pa!

Jiang Yi’s hand—which was still wielding the blood-drenched Fire Dragon Sword—swung across using the flat side of the sword to slap on Zhangsun Yan’s face, sending him flying.

His eyes swept across the Zhangsun Clan as he spoke in an indifferent voice, “I just want to ask some questions. If you clansmen don’t think it is necessary, then I shall send all of you on your final journey.”

“Take them all down!”

The Taishi Clan’s general gritted his teeth while bursting out with a yell. One would rather have a friend dying than themselves. Let alone the Zhangsun Clan, everyone was going to suffer the same fate if they were to provoke Jiang Yi. He was the dictator of Monarch City right now.

Once General Taishi gave his orders, his commanders all acted and led their men to arrest all the Zhangsun clansmen. All of them were tied up and placed at the empty front yard of the Zhangsun Clan. These royal guards were all polite and didn’t dare to mistreat the Zhangsun clansmen.

The Zhangsun Clan was the no.1 clan of the Divine Martial Kingdom. They had plenty of descendants which quickly filled up the front yard of the Zhangsun Clan which was actually huge. Many of the women were screaming while the children were wailing. The entire place was just as noisy as the food market.

Shh-shh-shh!

A group of soldiers came over from the left while seizing two young masters. One of them was constantly yelling, “Let me go!” Jiang Yi took a swift glance and quickly revealed a smile. His eyes met with the other young master as he spoke, “Zhangsun Wuji. It has been a long time since we last met.”

Among the two young masters caught, one of them was apparently Zhangsun Clan’s Young Clan Head, Zhangsun Wuji. When Zhangsun Wuji saw Jiang Yi, his face instantly turned pale white while his eyes were filled with resentment. He merely gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Jiang Yi withdrew his sights and looked at the clamorous scene at the front, which made him frustrated. He shouted out coldly, “General Taishi. If anyone dares to make another noise, kill them without hesitation!”

“...”

There was absolute silence all of a sudden. It wasn’t because Jiang Yi’s words frightened them, but he unintentionally leaked out his murderous aura, which caused everyone to tremble in fear. Even the children were looking at Jiang Yi with fearful eyes as though they were looking at a demon.

Jiang Yi nodded with satisfaction while he looked at Zhangsun Yan and speaking in a dull tone, “Marshal, I don’t want to look in the matters that happened previously. Today, as long as you give me an answer that satisfies me, I will not make it difficult for your clan. I would like you to explain: why did your clan’s son-in-law allow Liu Yu into the city? Why did he commit suicide afterward? Why is Liu Yu in your secret room? From what I know... regular clansmen would never know of such a secret room, right?”

“I, I...”

Zhangsun Yan nearly wanted to cry, but he truly didn’t know anything. How was he going to explain? He shook his head and swept his eyes across while shouting, “Who was the one that brought Liu Yu into the secret room? Show yourself this instant!”

The entire place was in dead silence. Zhangsun Yan was so angry that his body was shivering. He suddenly drew his sword and handed the sword hilt over to Jiang Yi while saying, “Jiang Yi, if you want to kill, then just kill me. This old man truly doesn’t know anything. Would you please be magnanimous and spare my clansmen?”

“Hmph!”

Jiang Yi sneered and scanned the faces of all the Zhangsun clansmen. He spoke in a ferocious tone, “Who did it? Why don’t you dare to stand out here? I just want to know who the mastermind that murdered Principal Zhuge is. If no one is going to tell me, then I apologize. Your entire Zhangsun Clan shall be completely slaughtered without exception...”
