“Not here?”

After scanning a single time with his divine senses, Jiang Yi nearly vomited the sludged-up blood in his throat. There were plenty of things in the ancient divine essence ring; there were elixirs, celestial stones, treasures, weapons, manuals, rations, and many more. After he scanned a few times with his divine senses, he didn’t notice any spatial divine artifacts. In fact, there wasn’t even an item that was related to a spatial divine artifact.

Buzz!

He took out everything inside the spatial ring and scattered them all over the ground. After inspecting each item to see if there was any spatial artifact hidden inside, he was extremely disappointed. Ru Lao’s ancient divine essence ring didn’t have any spatial artifact.

“How is this possible?”

Jiang Yi’s eyes were filled with bewilderment. He scanned the surroundings, and at Ru Lao’s corpse which was turned into a bloody pulp, but he couldn’t find anything else as Ru Lao only had one ancient divine essence ring.

“This doesn’t make sense?!”

The ancient divine essence ring was a very special existence, and this thing had existed since ancient times but had been modified by the Tang Clan. The rings weren’t expensive but were terrifyingly tough. There was a mystical restriction on the ring, and as long as one didn’t intentionally attack the ancient divine essence ring, it would be hard to destroy the ring.

When Jiang Yi was attacking earlier, he had made a quick scan and didn’t notice any other ancient divine essence rings on Ru Lao. If the astral wind blades had destroyed any ancient divine essence ring, Jiang Yi would have detected it.

Thus... there was only one conclusion. Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu didn’t escape with Ru Lao, and Ru Lao was just a decoy used to attract Jiang Yi’s attention.

“Not bad, not bad. Ji Tingyu, you are truly getting more intelligent!”

Jiang Yi was laughing with anger. He had risked his life and was almost killed by Ru Lao. He was currently severely injured, and his Fire Cloud Armor had also been destroyed. He had paid such a huge price and discovered he was toyed with in the end.

“Stay calm, I have to stay calm!”

Jiang Yi forced himself to calm down. This time, he was facing an unprecedentedly intelligent enemy. If he carried on like this, not only was he not going to find the targets, but he was also going to die without any burial grounds.

Hoo-Hoo!

He took a few deep breaths and swallowed two recuperation elixirs along with his blood and recuperated while sitting cross-legged. His injuries were severe and if he was to forcefully execute the Heaven Evasion like this, he might very well be torn to pieces by the distortion power of the spatial zone.

There were four to five cities in the vicinity, but there was only one large city—the Flood Martial City. Not every large city had large-scale teleportation array that was able to teleport to the main cities. Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu wouldn’t be safe unless they made it to the main city as only the main cities had Demigod Realm experts.

Hence, Ji Tingyu and Wu Ni had to think of all ways to make it to the Flood Martial City, and that was the safest method! If they were to go to other large cities, they would need at least two weeks with their speed. Ji Tingyu who had such intelligence wouldn’t dare to risk staying in the wilderness for more than two weeks as intelligent people were all afraid of death.

For them to reach Flood Martial City from here, they would need at least two days even if a peak-stage Heaven Monarch was carrying them. It meant that he had time, and he had to let his body recover a little so that he could execute the Heaven Evasion and would be able to escape even if he was pursued by experts.

He didn’t bother about anything else and fully concentrated on his recovery. He circulated the Nameless Divine Art frenziedly, causing his essence to revolve cycle after cycle in his meridians. His injuries were mended swiftly.

He had suffered quite serious injuries this time, but he was still slightly better than the previous two injuries. At least, he didn’t have so many broken bones this time, and his inner organs weren’t ruptured. However, he would need at least three to five days to achieve complete recovery.

One day later, Jiang Yi opened his eyes and stopped his recuperation.

His face looked much better and much more composed, too. It was a pity that his broken bones had yet to fully heal and had barely fixed back together. If he was to execute the Heaven Evasion like this, it would still be forcing it; but he didn’t have time.

He started to release his Divine Perception and scouted the radius of ten million miles. He immediately locked onto Flood Martial City as he wanted to see the situation inside the city which would allow him to determine if Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu had returned to the city.

“En?”

After he swept his Divine Perception over Flood Martial City, Jiang Yi’s soul spirit shivered. Ten thousand miles to the west of Flood Martial City, he had discovered countless Heaven Fate Ships; and these were all military ships. On the ships, there were large ‘Flood’ words, which meant they belonged to the Flood Martial City’s army.

“A hundred ships? Flood Martial City’s army was all mobilized?”

Jiang Yi let out a relaxed breath. The Flood Martial City’s army was mobilized and was fanning out over here. What did this mean? It meant that Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu had not returned to the city. Otherwise, the city would be guarding the duo to death and wouldn’t come out and search.

As long as they weren’t back to Flood Martial City, it meant there was still hope!

Jiang Yi swept his Divine Perception over Flood Martial City and noticed that martial law had been imposed. The city had a stifling atmosphere, and there was nearly nobody walking on the streets which made Jiang Yi even more certain that the duo had yet to return to the city. The Flood Martial City must have just received the information had immediately responded by sending the army and experts while imposing martial law in the city.

After scanning the surroundings with Divine Perception, Jiang Yi had noticed that the rest of the cities had also made their move. Countless Heaven Fate Ships were heading towards Camel Mountains, and there were people everywhere. The hundreds of bandit legions in Camel Mountains were also scuttling in all directions as they were afraid of being implicated. Jiang Yi detected in the nearby 100,000 miles, at least 100,000 individuals were fleeing, making it chaotic.

“Not there, not there, not there!”

Jiang Yi had scanned over and over while getting disappointed again and again. Ji Tingyu was too clever, and according to Jiang Yi’s guesses, they could be hiding inside a spatial artifact. However, he couldn’t have known who was carrying the spatial artifact. Tu Lao and his group had already split up and fled. It was obviously to prevent Jiang Yi from chasing them.

Again and again!

Jiang Yi scanned for another 15 minutes and gave up. If he carried on scanning like this, he wouldn’t be able to discover anything even after a few days and nights. He reckoned that the information here had already been sent to the North Thearch City and that the Wu Clan’s Demigod experts were arriving soon!

“It is useless!”

Jiang Yi revealed a smear of agony as his pursuit was a complete failure, and he had been utterly defeated! He wouldn’t be able to turn the circumstances around unless his strength reached the peak stage of the Demigod Realm, and he would be able to kill his way to North Thearch City with himself and a single blade.

COMMENT

“Ruoxue...”

When thinking about this incident, Wu Ni would surely vent his hatred on Su Ruoxue, making Jiang Yi’s rage rush to the sky while vomiting a mouthful of fresh blood.

“Kill, kill, kill!”

His eyes were gradually turning red, and the evil tendencies in his heart were turning into torrential rage. He wished that he could kill all of Wu clansmen and to raze all the Wu Clan’s cities to the ground. Only by doing so, he would be able to feel a little better.

“Cities? Cities! Flood Martial City? Wu Ni’s elder sister!”

Jiang Yi’s body shuddered. Since he couldn’t capture Wu Ni and Ji Tingyu, he could go and capture Wu Ni’s elder sister!

Wu Ni’s elder sister had married to the North Snow Region’s top three clans’ Hong Clan’s¹ First Young Master. It was a marriage alliance between the Wu and Hong Clan. If he was to capture Wu Ni’s elder sister, wouldn’t Jiang Yi still be able to exchange the hostage for Su Ruoxue?

The Flood Martial City’s experts had turned out in full strength, and according to the information provided by the Shadow Emperor’s men, there wasn’t any indication of Demigod experts in Flood Martial City. If Jiang Yi was to rush into the city and capture Wu Ying’er, there was a high probability of success. Who would have expected anyone to invade the city? He was even attacking the North Thearch’s Wu Clan’s city?

“Do it!”

Jiang Yi had already exhausted his abilities and had to take a risk. Since he had already punctured a huge hole in the sky by starting a huge battle with the North Thearch’s clan by assaulting Wu Ni, then he was just going to make the hole bigger.

“Go!”

His eyes had turned completely blood red, and his body was overflowing with killing aura. He suddenly got up, tore the void, and executed the Heaven Evasion.
