Jiang Yi had indeed reached the Yi Clan’s four regions. However, he had arrived at the Buddha Light Region, south of the Buddha Region. At this time, there was indeed an army attacking one of the Yi Clan’s cities.

This was a big city in the Buddha Light Region. The citizens of the city had long fled; there were only a few hundreds of thousands of soldiers left as well as some elders who refused to leave their hometown. The fighting in the city was not that furious; the battle was severely imbalanced.

The Yi Clan only had four hundred thousand troops without a single DemiG.o.d; among them were only one hundred thousand Heaven Monarchs with the rest being of the Vajra Realm. On the other hand, two DemiG.o.ds were leading the approaching army. There were tens of thousands of peak-stage Heaven Monarchs while the army was around three million in size.

The DemiG.o.ds on this side did not attack, however. They were suspended in mid-air watching the peak-stage Heaven Monarchs destroy the city and everyone within. The peak-stage Heaven Monarchs had joined forces and released a terrifying attack that buried the city; in a few waves of attacks, less than half of the Yi Clan army was left. The city was filled with corpses, and fresh blood dyed the streets red; it was just like h.e.l.l.

Swis.h.!.+

Tens of thousands of kilometers to the east, the spatial zone was interrupted as a pitch-black palace flew out and shot forth as a stream of light. The spatial zone above the palace had also trembled slightly as a phantom image appeared. It was Jiang Yi. He used his essence force and yelled, “All are to stop!”

The two DemiG.o.ds’ eyes narrowed as they immediately yelled, “It’s Jiang Yi!”

Those troops attacking the city all stopped. The remnants of the Yi Clan army were elated as they flew with ease towards the Mystic Divine Palace. They were both aggrieved and happy at the same time just like a child who had been bullied seeing his elders come.

“Young Master Jiang is here, we are saved.”

“Young Master Jiang, you have to avenge us. These fiends have already wiped out a hundred cities…”

“Hmph, the s.h.i.+ Clan, Zi Clan, and Ma Clan had attacked our cities at will while our clan head and consecrators were not around. Once the clan head is back, we have to teach these three clans a lesson and wipe them out.”

“There is no need for the clan head. Young Master Jiang is friends with Lady Chan; he will definitely avenge us.”

All those Yi Clan soldiers fleeing for their lives had all started to vent their frustrations out loud all at once; the situation had descended into chaos. Jiang Yi had a headache listening to all this as he growled, “Quiet!”

Jiang Yi’s voice was very awe-inducing; the entire area became quiet at once. The Mystic Divine Palace flew by and s.h.i.+elded the front line of the Yi Clan martial artists. Jiang Yi’s phantom shadow looked towards the two DemiG.o.ds in the distance and said, “Why are you guys attacking the Yi Clan four regions and killing indiscriminately? Isn’t the entire continent in enough of a mess?”

“Hahaha!”

One of the DemiG.o.ds flew a few feet forward and said mockingly, “Jiang Yi, if someone else had said something like this, it might not be so laughable. But coming from you, it is hilarious. What is your status, and why are you standing up for the Yi Clan? This is our personal vendetta with the Yi Clan, what has it got to do with you? Furthermore… have you not killed many people also? When you were killing indiscriminately in the Battle Thearch City, the Evil Thearch City, and the Beast Thearch City; why didn’t you say then that the continent was in a mess and stopped? Can it be you suddenly want to become a righteous envoy? Moreover, all those inside the city are the Yi Clan’s soldiers; when have we killed civilians?”

“Uh—”

The DemiG.o.d elder’s words were hard for Jiang Yi to refute. He had indeed killed many people and his reputation in the East Imperial Continent was extremely bad; he indeed did not have any right to lecture others about killing. However, there was no right or wrong or reasoning in this world; there was only a matter of might is right! At the start when others were bullying him and pursuing him, when did they ever reason with him? Since he was already so infamous, he didn’t mind at all anymore.

The Buddha Thearch and Yi Chan had shown great kindness to Jiang Yi; at this moment, the Buddha Thearch was trapped while the Buddha Emperor and the Yi Clan formidable martial artists were not around. Jiang Yi had to help the Yi Clan to endure this calamity. He said coldly, “I do not care about your feuds; I owe Yi Chan two favors. This time, she had asked me to help the Yi Clan. Hence, you guys can either retreat, or I will have no choice but to battle against you all.”

“Hahaha!”

That elder looked to the sky and laughed crazily, saying, “Jiang Yi, do you really think that you are a savior, that you are really unbeatable? Do you know how many clans had joined forces this time? It is not only our three clans but also thirty-odd others great family clans. A hundred thousand years ago, the then Yi Clan Thearch was cruel and loved to kill; he had secretly wanted to take control of all the big regions in the northeast. Those clans who would not bend the knee were all killed. This time, we have all joined forces for revenge! Jiang Yi, are you sure you want to be enemies with a few dozen clans?”

Jiang Yi did not fear threats at all. Furthermore, the Nine Thearch Clans could not break into the Mystic Divine Palace; could these ancient clans do so? Jiang Yi did not believe that to be true. He coldly answered, “I do not wish to hear something that had happened a hundred thousand years ago. I also do not wish to become your enemy. I just want to protect the Yi Clan; once the Buddha Thearch returns, I will not care about this matter anymore!”

“The Buddha Thearch? Hahahaha!”

That DemiG.o.d once again laughed out loud as the other DemiG.o.d replied, “Jiang Yi, I will tell you the truth. The Buddha Thearch is not coming back; he is already dead! Not only the Buddha Thearch, the Yin Thearch, the Night Empress, and the Xuan Thearch have all perished in the Black Sea. The Buddha Emperor and others had tried to save them but have all died as well! There is no more hope for the Yi Clan. Do you know how many troops have been gathered this time? Fifty million. A whole fifty million troops. Can you kill every single one of us?”

“What?”

Not only Jiang Yi but all the Yi Clan disciples’ faces had also changed. Jiang Yi could not dare to believe what he had just heard.

The Buddha Thearch was a nine-star formidable martial artist; in Jiang Yi’s heart, that meant that the Buddha Thearch was unrivaled. How could he have died? If the four Thearchs had really all died, the whole world would be thrown into chaos. The human race would really be hopeless and be exterminated.

“That’s not possible, that is absolutely not possible!”

Jiang Yi quickly willed himself to calm down and said resolutely, “How could the Buddha Thearch and the rest be dead? Who had the ability to kill them? You are spreading rumors!”

“Rumors?”

The two DemiG.o.ds started to laugh again. One of them sneered and said, “Jiang Yi, use your imagination. If the Buddha Thearch wasn’t dead—if the Buddha Emperor and so many DemiG.o.ds weren’t dead, would we dare to execute our revenge plans? To tell you the truth, our clan head had already received reliable information; there is also proof that they are all dead. If you wish to help the Yi Clan, then you will definitely become the enemy of a few dozen clans. You will bear the consequences.”

“Proof? What proof?”

Jiang Yi’s eyes s.h.i.+fted as he said, “You guys have definitely been incited by someone; that proof you have is fake. It is obvious that someone is trying to instigate a huge battle to make the entire continent fall into chaos. The Buddha Thearch and company could not have perished!”

“Hahaha, we don’t care about any instigation or incitement at all.”

The DemiG.o.d who had spoken shook his head and said, “We saw the Buddha Thearch’s Vajra Scepter, the Night Empress’s Jade Lady Fan, the Xuan Thearch’s Saint Emperor Sword, and the Yin Thearch’s Xuan Yuan Tripod with our own eyes! These are all the famed weapons of the four Thearchs. If they weren’t dead, how could their ancient artifacts have been taken?

“Jiang Yi, I will only say this once; will you give way or not? If you don’t, we—the thirty-six clans—will become your mortal enemies. Don’t think that you are that powerful because of the Mystic Divine Palace; many ancient clans possess unimaginable amounts of mystical abilities and secret arts. If you dare to help the Yi Clan, you will die!”

Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+

Jiang Yi and the faces of the Yi Clan’s formidable martial artists had turned ghastly pale; there was not a sliver of red!

These few clans had indeed been instigated by someone. They also knew that someone was goading them on. The words of the two DemiG.o.ds should be true. Since they had personally seen the ancient artifacts used by the Buddha Thearch, the Night Empress, the Xuan Thearch, the Yin Thearch, and the rest; that meant that the few of them could really be dead. If not, how could someone have gotten his hands on their weapons?

“A calamity—is a calamity really coming?”

Jiang Yi closed his eyes, feeling helpless. The Buddha Thearch and company were dead; the North Thearch, the Battle Thearch, the Beast Thearch, the Evil Thearch, and the rest were also minding their own business. There was no one else that could stop the mastermind’s plan.

If the mastermind could kill the Buddha Thearch, the former’s powers were far stronger than what Jiang Yi had imagined. Jiang Yi could not do everything by himself; he could only watch as the Stellarsky Domain walked step by step closer to oblivion.
