Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Green Bird Merchant Association’s President Feng Buxi used his fastest speed to arrive at Situ Courtyard, but he went through the hidden passage. Of course, if the mastermind behind this incident was the Lei Clan, they might have discovered his whereabouts as the four major clans had too much influence in the city.

Situ Ao, Feng Buxi, Jiang Yi, Qian Wanguan, Situ Yixiao, and Huangfu Taotian discussed for four hours and fixed on a perfect plan. After the discussion, Feng Buxi left silently while Jiang Yi returned to the Jiang Castle and informed everyone. Jiang Xiaonu was still in seclusion, and Jiang Yi didn’t intentionally wake her up. After making all the arrangements, he and Huangfu Taotian left and headed straight for the western city gates.

“Eh? Isn’t that Jiang Yi?”

“It is him, and he is with Young Master Huangfu Taotian. The two of them are in a rush. Could they be preparing to exit the city?”

“Exit the city? Is Jiang Yi not afraid of getting killed?”

Many pedestrians and city guards that saw Jiang Yi were all astonished, especially the people at the western city gates, who were even more bewildered. Putting aside the Lei Clan and Lu Clan that Jiang Yi offended, the spies of the East Imperial Continent would definitely not spare Jiang Yi’s lives. Once, he exited the city, he would certainly suffer and endless pursuit.

Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

Right at the same moment, the backdoors of the Green Bird Merchant Association in the city had opened up. Hundreds of luxurious carriages galloped out and headed straight for the western city gates. Many people were alarmed and quickly followed to the western city gates as they wanted to know what was happening.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Once the carriages reached the western city gates, they all split into rows as countless martial artists flew from the carriages and onto a giant Heaven Fate Ship. Jiang Yi and Huangfu Taotian had already boarded the Heaven Fate Ship long ago. The crowds that were watching the show were in an uproar as the Green Bird Merchant Association had mobilized nearly 10,000 Heaven Monarchs and 100 peak-stage Heaven Monarchs. It was almost all the experts from the merchant association turning out in full strength.

Soon enough, a piece of news circulated out saying that the Green Bird Merchant Association’s Heaven Fate Ship had been intercepted by the Devil Legion, and all the guards had died in battle. Thousands of customers had been abducted, and the Devil Legion asked for a ransom of 100 billion celestial stones. If they didn’t hand over the celestial stones in one month, all the hostages would be killed.

Once the news was out, the whole city was in a sensation.

If the Green Bird Merchant Association’s Heaven Fate Ships were no longer safe, which other merchant association’s Heaven Fate Ship would be safe? Didn’t this Devil Legion receive a large sum of toll every month? Why would they suddenly do this? If they were to provoke the Green Bird Merchant Association, wouldn’t both sides suffer? Everyone knew that the Green Bird Merchant Association was very powerful, and it was evident after seeing them mobilize 10,000 Heaven Monarchs.

Many people were very excited, and their blood was boiling. They wished they could follow the Green Bird Merchant Association and observe the battle at Devil Island as this wasn’t just a small fight with a small bandit legion. With more than 10,000 Heaven Monarchs on both sides—once they started a battle, it would certainly be a majestic and grand sight, right?

Some people silently associated that if Jiang Yi and Huangfu Taotian were following the Green Bird Merchant Association, friends of Jiang Yi or Huangfu Taotian might be among the hostages. Otherwise, the two of them wouldn’t take a risk and exit the city.

Various factions and countless clans in the city had all mobilized their scouts to find out for information. They had to obtain the latest information regarding such a great battle and avoid any emergency which might catch them unprepared. Of course, if it was a good thing, the various clans would surely get involved and get a part of the profits.

What everyone didn’t know was...

The Situ Clan was also secretly gathering experts, but these experts didn’t walk out of the Situ Courtyard and to the western city gates. They entered a large hall in the inner courtyard of the Situ Clan in an orderly manner. Immediately after, hundreds and hundreds of people started to teleport. There was a powerful restriction in the large hall which didn’t allow the outside to detect any spatial vibration during the teleportation. Only the courtyards of the four major clans had such teleportation arrays. Moreover, there was no way to know where they were teleporting to.

This time, Situ Ao didn’t participate personally and allowed Situ Yixiao to be the chief commander while Qian Wanguan would be supporting. Situ Ao was even bolder this time as most of the clan’s experts had been mobilized, and they were actually given to a 25- or 26-year-old youth to command them? If they were defeated, the Situ Clan would definitely suffer a huge blow. They might just sink to the bottom of the four major clans.

At the same time, Situ Ao had also gathered the experts that were hidden in the nine archipelagoes—their hidden forces. All of them were handed over to Situ Yixiao to command. Situ Ao was cutting all means of retreat, and if Situ Yixiao didn’t live up to the expectations, Situ Ao would have to accept his fate.

The Devil Island was located in the west of the Gods Bestow Sea’s central area. It would require at least two weeks to make it over from the Gods Bestow City. Jiang Yi and Huangfu Taotian had boarded the Heaven Fate Ship and entered a hold of the ship never came out. There were 10,000 Heaven Monarchs on this ship, and over a 100 of them were peak-stage Heaven Monarchs. It was absolutely safe, and even if a powerful legion was to attack, Jiang Yi would be able to escape immediately.

After entering the hold of the ship, Jiang Yi had been releasing his Divine Perception to scout everything in the ten-million-mile radius as he wanted to prevent their ship from getting intercepted if the Lei Clan had grown crazy and mobilized their powerful legion. The power of the Divine Perception was now performing brilliantly as Jiang Yi was able to sense any commotion within the ten-million-mile radius. It was impossible for any large scale legions to approach them.

“President Feng, a Heaven Fate Ship is approaching from the left. Steer towards the right!”

On the third day, Jiang Yi suddenly opened his eyes and asked Huangfu Taotian to open up the barrier. He locked onto the President Feng Buxi in the first hold of the ship and transmitted a message. The latter quickly gave the order for the Heaven Fate Ship to change direction while asking someone to scout and verify if Jiang Yi possessed the ability that he mentioned.

As expected!

After the Heaven Fate Ship altered the course, a scout sent back a message 30 minutes later that there was indeed a Heaven Fate Ship approaching from over hundreds of thousands of miles away. However, it was simply a merchant association’s Heaven Fate Ship.

“Virtuosic!”

Feng Buxi’s florid old face was filled with shock as he was overwhelmed and was even more confident about this trip to the Devil Island. For the next few days, Jiang Yi didn’t disappoint Feng Buxi as he had scouted three Heaven Fate Ships and five groups of bandit legions in advance. Feng Buxi wasn’t fearful of the bandit legions, but with precaution as a top priority, they changed their course immediately.

On the fifth day...!

Jiang Yi didn’t transmit any message this time. He and Huangfu Taotian silently sneaked out from the hold of the ship and entered Feng Buxi’s room. Feng Buxi had already detected the two of them and activated the barrier once the duo entered. He asked with a stiff body, “Young Master Jiang, what is the situation?”

“There were a few dozen scouts following up, and they are all first-rate! They broke up into more than ten groups, and I have finally affirmed it after scouting them for a few days,” Jiang Yi spoke with a heavy voice. His eyes flashed with cold light while he asked in an indifferent voice, “Do you want to seize them all or kill them all?”

“This...”

Feng Buxi hesitated as these scouts should have all came from the Gods Bestow City, and they might be people from the Lei, Huangfu, or Nangong Clans. The Lu Clan and the other clans might also have sent them. If he was to sent people to kill them, how were they going to continue staying in Gods Bestow City?

Huangfu Taotian revealed a cold intent and said, “President Feng doesn’t dare to do it? Then let me do it.”

The scouts’ strength were all not powerful, and even the first-rate scout would only possess incredible art of evasion. They generally used the wind attribute dao pattern and were just very fast. After all, these scouts worked alone, were also in dangerous situations, and were highly susceptible to getting killed by bandits. There was no use for them to have formidable strength; it was sufficient for them to have fast speed and the know-how of the art of evasion.

Feng Buxi muttered for a moment and took out a special token. He spoke in a deep voice, “Will you please wait for a moment? I will send a message to Young Master Yixiao as he is the chief commander this time.”

“Alright!”

Jiang Yi and Huangfu Taotian nodded. Situ Ao had given all the authority to Situ Yixiao, and if they didn’t report to him, it wouldn’t be good. Feng Buxi’s hand was revolving with essence force while there was a black light on the token. Runic patterns were flowing around, making it look like a spirit-connected cardinal treasure.

When Huangfu Taotian saw that Jiang Yi was very curious, he started to explain. “This is the first-rate message token. It has a price, but there is no way to buy it. Only the Tang Clan of the East Imperial Continent can produce it. It allows for the transmission of the message within a trillion miles.”

“Great item!”

Jiang Yi nodded silently while Feng Buxi’s eyes opened quickly. He nodded and replied, “Young Master Huangfu, Young Master Jiang, Young Master Yixiao mentioned that you can make your move without fear. I will transfer 30 peak-stage Heaven Monarch elders to you. Be careful.”

“Hehe!”

Huangfu Taotian let out a chilling cold laugh. Thirty peak-stage Heaven Monarchs? No matter how incredible this scouts’ art of evasion was, they wouldn’t be able to escape even if they had wings.
