Buzz!

Jiang Yi instant-s.h.i.+fted once again and appeared above Princ.i.p.al Yu. This time, it was as if he made a mistake as his reappearing location was somewhat close to Princ.i.p.al Yu—they were only around 300 meters apart. If Princ.i.p.al Yu had prepared himself beforehand, he could have inflicted a fatal strike on Jiang Yi in a blink of an eye.

Fortunately, Princ.i.p.al Yu was still trying to deal with the flames Jiang Yi had just struck out. Furthermore, the position Jiang Yi had instant-s.h.i.+fted to was just slightly closer to him. Therefore, he didn’t pay much attention to it. When he saw that Jiang Yi had sent out another few palm strikes and another wave of flames, Princ.i.p.al Yu exposed traces of mockery. This time, the sea of flame had become a lot weaker. It seemed like the series of attacks had consumed a lot of Jiang Yi’s essence force. He reckoned that Jiang Yi would not be able to persist much longer.

“He!”

He waved his fan casually and sent out a row of sea waves. Meanwhile, he locked his divine senses onto Jiang Yi and wanted to see which location was he going to instant-s.h.i.+ft. Xiao Longw.a.n.g had warned him before. As long as both of them acted carefully and didn’t get sneak-attacked by Jiang Yi, both of them could easily play him to death.

“Eh?”

Immediately after, he was greatly alarmed. A deadly crisis approached silently, and his expression grew unsightly. He had no idea where this danger originated from because his divine senses had located Jiang Yi who instant-s.h.i.+fted to Xiao Longw.a.n.g.

“Old Yu, be careful! There’s a problem with that white flame!”

Xiao Longw.a.n.g had also sensed it as his divine senses scanned over. Since his reaction speed was a lot faster than Princ.i.p.al Yu, he located the problem right away.

“White flames?”

Princ.i.p.al Yu was alarmed as his gaze fell onto the flame that was whizzing towards him. A moment ago, he had just struck out a water attribute dao attack. According to his previous battle experience, his water attribute dao attack should have easily extinguished the Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames.

When he turned his gaze over, he was frightened stiff!

The water attribute dao attack he struck out had completely vanished. Meanwhile, there was still a portion of Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames remaining. Furthermore, a lump of white flames had appeared in the middle of the Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames abruptly. That flame was very tiny and was only about the size of a brain. Inside it was a grimacing face. The white flame was well concealed inside the Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames—to the extent that Princ.i.p.al Yu didn’t even manage to catch it at the start.

“It is scorching hot. There’s a problem with this flame white! I have to do it! Water Dragon Heaven Whistle!”

Princ.i.p.al Yu swung his fan down as he launched a water dragon. This water dragon was extremely small and was only as thick as a human body. However, the aura of the water dragon was a lot stronger than the towering sea waves. Clearly, this was Princ.i.p.al Yu’s strongest attack.

A moment ago, when Jiang Yi was only about 300 meters away from him, Princ.i.p.al Yu did not notice the Netherworld Ghost Flame. By the time he discovered it, the ghost flame was only about 30 meters away from him! He could no longer dodge it. The only thing he could do was to see if his strongest water attribute attack could extinguish this Netherworld Ghost Flame. If it couldn’t, then he could only submit to his death!

Could the water dragon extinguish the Netherworld Ghost Flame?

It might be possible if it was just the regular ghost flames. However, this ghost flame had been refined by Jiang Yi and was amplified by the Nine Heaven Stars’ power. Its might was stronger than the Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames by at least 10 times. Princ.i.p.al Yu’s water attribute dao pattern attack was only equal to the Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames. How could he possibly extinguish the Netherworld Ghost Flame?

Tsk! Tsk!

The water dragon got evaporated and turned into a lump of smoke once it got into contact with the Netherworld Ghost Flame. That human-head-size white flame didn’t pause but continued to whiz its way over. Just when Princ.i.p.al Yu had turned around and was about to flee, his body had already been incinerated by the terrifying and scorching flame. If he could still manage to flee at such distance, it would really be a surprise.

“Ah, Ah—!”

Princ.i.p.al Yu produced an earth-shaking roar as it resonated throughout the whole Summer Rain City. It was filled with his anger, unwillingness, and regret.

“Azure Dragon College’s Princ.i.p.al Yu had perished. Regent is invincible! Brothers! Kill! Don’t let these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds escape!”

When Old General Lu saw Princ.i.p.al Yu being incinerated alive, his face was flushed red. He poured out all of his essence force and immediately roared out. This roar caused the morale of the Great Xia Kingdom to rise drastically while the alliance army was disturbed.

How long had it been? Yet, another martial expert had fallen?

Had Jiang Yi broken through to the Heaven Monarch Realm? How could he kill Vajra Realm martial experts so easily as if he was chopping vegetables?

“The Regent is invincible! Kill!”

The remaining army in the city roared at the same time. Their voice was extremely deafening as it caused the Soul Travel Realm experts to grow somewhat panicky. A lot of them no longer had the spirit to continue fighting. If it wasn’t because they saw Xiao Longw.a.n.g was still hovering up in the sky, they would have long turned themselves into birds and quickly fled.

In fact…!

At this moment, Xiao Longw.a.n.g also wished to escape. He was able to sense a mortal danger from that quiet Netherworld Ghost Flame. He knew that if this ghost flame was 30 meters away from him, he wouldn’t be able to flee as well. If Jiang Yi was to go all-out and release the ghost flame after instant-s.h.i.+fting to his side, he would still have to die even if he could kill Jiang Yi.

More importantly, he discovered a problem!

Jiang Yi might seem to be attacking them recklessly, but he managed to kill two of them while inflicting serious injuries to one in just a short span of time.

At the start, he felt that Jiang Yi was just lucky. Now, there were consecutive accidents. This was definitely not luck but Jiang Yi’s scheme!

For example, from the start, Jiang Yi would always barge his way through while instant-s.h.i.+fting himself out at the perfect timing. Because of this, their essence force came colliding into one another’s, leading to the Old Marshal’s death. If this wasn’t achieved because of luck, this could only be done after Jiang Yi had managed to estimate everyone’s flying speed, trajectory, attack speed as well as at which point of time he had to instant-s.h.i.+ft away.

Secondly, when he started attacking the Hundred Blossom Lady, why didn’t he use the Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames and shot out several thousands of fire dragons instead? Clearly, he was trying to get the Hundred Blossom Lady to grow unwary and think that his attacking power was only limited to that.

Just now, why did he suddenly appear 300 meters away from Princ.i.p.al Yu? It wasn’t too close or too far. If he was too far away, Princ.i.p.al Yu would definitely be able to escape. If he got too close, it would cause Princ.i.p.al Yu to grow vigilant, allowing him to be able to escape in time.

“That’s right. All of these must have been planned by that brat. This brat’s wisdom is too terrifying. Everything was under his control!”

Xiao Longw.a.n.g got gooseb.u.mps, and he nearly wanted to turn around and flee.

However, he didn’t do so due to his dignity and pride. There were a lot of people watching them. If he had fled, all the reputation he had built over the years would be ruined. He could only grit his teeth and used his divine senses to scout out Jiang Yi while searching for an opportunity to kill him.

Jiang Yi started to instant-s.h.i.+ft around him while striking out the Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames unceasingly. There was no longer any ghost flame contained within these Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames. It was as if that was Jiang Yi’s only ghost flame. However, Xiao Longw.a.n.g continued to keep his guard up and didn’t dare to even lower his guard down for a moment as he used his divine sense to constantly locate Jiang Yi.

“Eh?”

Suddenly, just when Jiang Yi was about to instant-s.h.i.+ft away, his body shuddered. It was as if his instant s.h.i.+ft had failed because of overconsumption his essence force, stamina, and spirit energy. At this moment, Xiao Longw.a.n.g’s eyes glistened up like a star. He turned his eyes around and decided that he had to grab hold of this rare opportunity to see if he could kill off Jiang Yi.

His body slid across the sky in an arc as he evaded the nearby Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames. Following which, he shot himself towards Jiang Yi with lightning speed. Meanwhile, he brandished his halberd at his front and thrust towards Jiang Yi who was preparing to instant s.h.i.+ft away.

“Hehe!”

Jiang Yi no longer executed instant s.h.i.+ft and remained motionless on the spot. He turned around and revealed a faint smile. When Xiao Longw.a.n.g saw this smile, he immediately realized that he was fooled again! This was just another of Jiang Yi’s scheme!

As expected!

The ring on Jiang Yi’s finger lighted up and countless white ghost flames poured out and instantly enveloped Xiao Longw.a.n.g. Simultaneously, Jiang Yi struck out a few palm strikes which sent the ghost fire flying out. The abnormally high temperature engulfed over, almost causing Xiao Longw.a.n.g’s entire body to get ignited with flames.

“Run—!”

Xiao Longw.a.n.g no longer hesitated. Reputation was nothing compared to his life. This brat was just too terrifying. If this were to continue on, he would definitely be played to death by Jiang Yi.

A spirit beast talisman lighted up in his hand, and an enormous spirit beast immediately appeared. He abruptly used a palm strike and launched that enormous spirit beast into the ghost fire. It was actually a spirit beast of the demon king cla.s.s.

Xiao Longw.a.n.g was just too ruthless. At the crucial moment, he didn’t even hesitate to use his trump card and sacrificed a demon king just so he could obtain a chance to escape.
