Grandma Hun was tricked, which caused her body to pause before swiftly returning to Shui Qianrou. She might have guessed that it was a trick, but as a secret guard, Shui Qianrou’s safety was always the first priority. Right now, Shui Qianrou’s defense artifact, Spirit Sparrow Gown, had been destroyed, which put even more worry to Grandma Hun.
“Run! Head back to the college!”
Jiang Yi let out a breath of relief and controlled the demon wolf to sprint towards Mt. Spirit Beast College at the top speed. Zhuge Qingyun was residing in the college, this Shui Qianrou and Grandma Hun wouldn’t be this brazen to chase after him, right?
“Wretched luck!”
As he was seated on the demon wolf which was sprinting, Jiang Yi began to curse. That stone peak was where the stone cave was situated in, and it contained his spoils of battle for the past few days. Qian Kun actually wanted to send men to transport these materials to the Spirit Beast City every day and trade them at Qian Clan’s merchant shop. Jiang Yi felt that it was too troublesome and asked Qian Kun to come every five days. Right now, tens of thousands of purple gold had all been wasted; that comfortable stone cave had been destroyed, too. Whenever he thought about this, Jiang Yi would feel the hatred all the way into his teeth.
Jiang Yi thought about something and felt that something was wrong. Shui Qianrou was obviously an individual that liked the brave and loved the fight. Such a prestigious young lady, who didn’t know the seriousness of the world, wouldn’t be able to locate him this accurately even if she knew that he was the no.1 prodigy of the Mt. Spirit Beast College, right? Qian w.a.n.guan obviously knew who Shui Qianrou was and even mentioned that her mother was the continent’s no.1 martial expert? Why didn’t Qian w.a.n.guan inform him sooner?
Conspiracy!
Jiang Yi could smell the presence of a conspiracy. Of course, he wasn’t suspecting Qian w.a.n.guan, but he felt that someone was manipulating and plotting. Their objective was to make use of Shui Qianrou to kill him.
“Swis.h.!.+”
The Silver-Moon Demon Wolf soon descended the Mt. Black Clouds and rushed towards the Mt. Spirit Beast College. When he dashed into the Mt. Spirit Beast College’s territory, the patrol team that was guarding the nearby vicinity got a shock. The members of the patrol team were all of Purple Mansion Realm; the sky was dark, and everyone could feel a shadow flas.h.i.+ng past them. They reaffirmed with their eyes and saw nothing, thinking that they saw a ghost.
“Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, still trying to run. Receive your death!”
A burst of roar came echoing from within the Mt. Black Clouds. Grandma Hun was carrying Shui Qianrou and traveling at top speed while her body was bursting with formidable aura. That killer aura that was surging into the skies made patrol team from the college tremble in fear, feeling it from dozens of miles away.
“Send the signal; seek for reinforcements!”
The patrol team naturally didn’t dare to go against a Soul Travel Realm expert. One of them shouted, and soon, countless signal flares were rus.h.i.+ng into the sky. They bloomed in mid-air, dazzling the jet-black serene sky with an exceptional magnificence.
One old mad woman and one young mad woman!
Jiang Yi turned back to look and had fury revealed in his eyes. He looked at the distant Mt. Spirit Beast that was reaching through the clouds and let out a cold smirk. He then shouted at his loudest voice, “Two mad women. This Young Master is right here. If you have the guts, come here and kill me!”
“Grandma Hun! Kill him—otherwise, I don’t want to live anymore!”
When Grandma Hun saw the signal flare in the sky, she felt some hesitation. On the other hand, when Shui Qianrou heard the insolent shouts from Jiang Yi, she was instantly infuriated.
In her entire life, she had never suffered such a grievance. All the way from the Starfall Island to the Northern Liang Kingdom, and to the Divine Martial Kingdom, she had never suffered a loss. Right now, not only did Jiang Yi put dirt on her face; but he also killed the Black Qilin that accompanied her from a young age and even destroyed the saint-tier protection artifact—Spirit Sparrow Gown—that was gifted by her mother. It was unimaginable—how much wrath she had in her heart.
Grandma Hun was extremely infuriated, too. When she originally saw Jiang Yi and found out he was only at the eighth stage of the Cast Tripod Realm, she didn’t put any regards until Jiang Yi had slain the Black Qilin. Due to the distance and that the Black Qilin had blocked her vision, she didn’t know exactly how did Jiang Yi slay the Black Qilin.
She could imagine when she returns to Starfall Island. She wouldn’t know how to explain to Shui Youlan. She knew well enough about the temperament of this young princess. If she didn’t kill Jiang Yi, the young princess would definitely fuss unrelentingly. Grandma Hun’s eyes flickered for two times before she gritted her teeth and chased further into the Mt. Spirit Beast College’s territory.
“Princess, can I borrow your Devil-Sky Silk? I will trap this kid first before killing him! The Silver-Moon Demon Wolf is much too fast, and I am afraid I might not be able to keep up with it.”
Grandma Hun was running at full speed while speaking to Shui Qianrou. Shui Qianrou paused for a moment before asking with some doubt, “Grandma Hun. This Devil-Sky Silk has already been slightly refined by me, will you be able to wield it?”
“My soul spirit is strong. The imprint that you left on the Devil-Sky Silk can be wiped off easily!”
Grandma Hun quickly continued: “Quickly. The kid is about to enter the Mt. Spirit Beast College. That Zhuge Qingyun might not dare to offend your mother… but if we are to create havoc in the college, he would definitely step in. He still has to uphold his reputation after all.”
“Okay!”
Shui Qianrou’s Ancient Divine Essence Ring flashed, and a piece of long, silver silk appeared. A black light flashed in the eyes of Grandma Hun, which was then shot onto the Devil-Sky Silk. She grasped the Devil-Sky Silk with one hand and poured her essence force in before shouting out, “Go!”
“Tsk-Tsk!”
The Devil-Sky Silk was shot out in the sky, and in just a few blinks of the eye, it drew across the sky and chased after Jiang Yi.
“What is this thing?”
Jiang Yi looked behind him and could feel a silver light flas.h.i.+ng as it pierced through the sky. His hand swiftly grasped on to the Fire Spirit Pearl as he shouted, “Demon wolf, dodge to the left.”
“Tsk-Tsk!”
He didn’t expect that the Devil-Sky Silk to turn and follow wherever the Silver-Moon Demon Wolf flashed to. It seemed to have locked onto him from afar. Jiang Yi was cursing in his heart but didn’t dare to recklessly use the Fire Spirit Rock as he wasn’t sure that he could hit the Devil-Sky Silk.
The daughter of the continent’s no.1 combatant? She sure has an astounding amount of artifacts. This mother must have spoiled her into having such a barbaric behavior!
Jiang Yi was whining about his difficulty, but what could he do? The only thing he could do was to constantly give orders to the demon wolf and use its fastest speed to head towards the college. Right now, he was only a few thousand feet away from the college and only required some few more moments to dash into the college.
“Tsk-Tsk!”
It was a pity that the Devil-Sky Silk was too fast. It was so fast that Jiang Yi and the Silver Moon Demon Wolf had no chance to react and were wrapped up by it. They were wrapped up like a dumpling! Since the demon wolf was still running earlier, they both tumbled forward until they finally crashed into a stone.
What is this? Why is it so tough?
Jiang Yi could feel a flash of white light, and his body couldn’t move anymore. He forcefully tried to twist—but the more he struggled, the tighter the Devil-Sky Silk got. Reining him so tightly that he couldn’t really breathe.
Fire Spirit Rock!
Jiang Yi clenched his teeth and got ready to release the Fire Spirit Rock. He soon had a shock as he realized something. This Fire Spirit Rock was so tyrannical; he was afraid once it appeared, the Silver-Moon Demon Wolf would be vaporized.
With the spirit beast talisman on him, as long as he activated with his essence force, he could keep the Silver-Moon Demon Wolf into it. The problem was… Jiang Yi couldn’t even move an inch now; how was he going to retrieve the spirit beast talisman? The spirit beast talisman wasn’t like the Fire Spirit Pearl which could be controlled with his mind.
“Swis.h.!.+”
Grandma Hun flew over with extreme speed. She had reckoned on this important factor and took a risk by using the Devil-Sky Silk. Of course, she had no choice but to take this bet, too. It was obvious that she won the bet, seeing that Jiang Yi didn’t want to forsake the Silver-Moon Demon Wolf!
“Princess, release the World-Extinguis.h.i.+ng Silver Necklace and crush Jiang Yi!”
In just a few breaths, she was closing up the thousand-foot gap between them. Shui Qianrou, who was carried by her, immediately activated the silver necklace, which whizzed towards Jiang Yi. On the other hand, Grandma Hun concentrated on the Devil-Sky Silk and got ready to promptly withdraw it when the necklace was about to hit Jiang Yi. Just like that, the necklace would be able to easily turn Jiang Yi into a paste.
