Chapter 511: The Trapped Dragon Had Set off to the Sea

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

As soon as Jiang Yi had decided to venture into the outside world, he started to a.n.a.lyze the situation and settled all the necessary things.

The two Heaven Monarch envoys were coming soon, and they would definitely rage when they find out that the Martial Arts Hall had been ruined. If they were unable to find Jiang Yi, they might take their anger out on his subordinates and his relatives. ‘I have to take good care of those people,’ Jiang Yi thought.

“Should I ask them to go with me?” he pondered.

Obviously, the answer was no. Jiang Yi knew it very well that there were full of danger in the outside world and that he might lose his life anytime. If he died, everyone would die, too.

Since that was the case, the only way to settle those people down was to send them to a concealed island that was not too close to the continent— just so they would not be easily discovered by others.

“Jiang Yi!”

Shui Youlan seemed to see through Jiang Yi’s concerns and said, “I’ve found two well-concealed sites these few years, and I was going to turn them as refuges for the Water Moon Observatory. Now, I can give one of them to you. It is around fifty thousand kilometers south of Starfall Island. There is a natural illusion zone ordinary people would never find if they do not know how to break the formation. The island is not so big, but it can definitely fit more than a hundred thousand people easily.”

“Thank you so much, Hostess Shui!”

Jiang Yi cupped his hands to thank Shui Youlan as he was still unable to stand up properly due to his injuries, and then immediately asked Shui Youlan take him to examine the island.

Shui Youlan was really fast—fifty thousand kilometers of distance only took her one hour. Jiang Yi looked around and even used his divine senses to scan through the surrounding as soon as they reached it, but he could not discover anything there.

“Ke-Ke!”

Shui Youlan smiled faintly. With her hands lighting up a stream of blue line, she casually swung her hands forward and produced a flowing light stream. Then, an amazing thing happened: the surrounding environment slowly changed, and a few islands suddenly appeared right in front of them.

“The position of those eighteen islands is very special, and this unusual illusion zone is formed due to special s.p.a.ce fluctuations made by many Kylin stones on those islands. At first, I didn’t notice this. It was only until the time I was searching this area carefully for one of my disciples who accidentally got lost around here that I discovered this wonderful place.

“There are no restrictive s.p.a.ce fluctuations in this area because the formation here is completely natural. So even if the divine senses of the strong people pa.s.s through here, they won’t be able to discover it. It is the safest place for now. The Beast Tide has just pa.s.sed so at least before the next Best Tide, it is absolutely safe for your relatives and your friends.” Shui Youlan explained as they were heading downwards.

Jiang Yi nodded. Although the seventeen surrounding islands were quite small, the big island in the center—covered with flowers and trees and occupied by small wild beasts in its deep mountains—was definitely enough for a hundred thousand people.

After ensuring that this island was safe and suitable enough for his friends and relatives, Jiang Yi went back to Starfall Island with Shui Youlan. Once they reached the place, they released Jiang Xiaonu and his gang from the Universal Palace and let them rest in the Starfall Island. Immediately after that, Jiang Yi rode a teleportation array towards the Northern Liang Kingdom.

Jiang Rentu and his army did not attack the Northern Liang Kingdom and the Northern Mang Kingdom, and so the main city at the eastern part of the Northern Liang Kingdom—the Liang City—remained as peaceful as usual. However, the citizens had all fell into a constant state of anxiety as they were worried that Jiang Yi might come back and wipe them out completely one day.

Buzz!

As soon as Jiang Yi arrived in the teleportation formation of the Liang City, he released his Ma.s.sacre Intent which spread across the whole city, making everyone shudder.

To release Ma.s.sacre Intent like such, Jiang Yi was the only one in the whole world that could do so. His blood-red-colored hair and eyes made many martial artists in the city plaza, who had noticed him, fearful and desperate. They knew it clearly that their whole city would be gone if Jiang Yi decided to attack them.

Lucky for them, Jiang Yi did not have the time to kill them. He disappeared immediately after a quick scan with his divine senses.

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

With a few continuous instant s.h.i.+fts, he was already thousands of kilometers away. He summoned the Yazi Beast and rushed toward the Stellarsky City.

…

“What? Escape to a concealed island?”

Five days later, in a courtyard located in the east of the Stellarsky City, Yun Qingtian, Grandma Silver Flower, Zhan Yiming, Jiang Rentu, Qian Gui, Princ.i.p.al Qi, General Lu, and their cronies were all in shock when they heard Jiang Yi’s word.

Shui Youlan used the message secret transformation to those people and asked them to come to the Stellarsky City with their clan members because Jiang Yi had something important to discuss with them.

However, only Zhan Yiming and Qian Gui brought their clan members along with them; both Princ.i.p.al Qi and Yun Qingtian came here alone. They could not understand why Jiang Yi wanted all of them to escape at such a wonderful moment. In their eyes, Jiang Yi would soon conquer the whole continent and establish a new empire of his own.

Jiang Yi sighed slightly and explained: “Although I found the Martial Arts Chief Hall and killed Dugu Qiu, it is still just a tip of an iceberg among the countless Martial Arts Branch Halls around the world. They are too strong, and they have countless powerful martial artists—considering Heaven Monarch Realm absolute experts only, there were at least hundreds of them. Around one month later, there will be two Heaven Monarch realm absolute experts coming.

“If all of you don’t escape now, you might get implicated. Anyways, I found a wonderful place where all of you and your descendants could leave peacefully forever. I will venture to the outside world once all of you are settled. If one day, I—Jiang Yi—could rise again and destroy the Martial Arts Hall, I would definitely bring a great world back to all of you. Now, it is time to make your decision!”

Everyone’s expression turned serious now. Jiang Yi would definitely not be kidding for such an important thing. None of them could fight against two Heaven Monarch Realm absolute experts. They knew that very clearly, but to give up all their powers and glory and hide on a concealed island was indeed a hard decision to make for many of them.

Yun Qingtian sighed silently for a while and started first: “Supreme Marshal of the Empire, I can’t leave. I must be accountable to the citizens of our Heaven Mystics Kingdom. I will ask some of my clan members to go to the concealed island to save our descendants just in case… and… and I don’t think the two Heaven Monarch experts will kill innocent people randomly. We might not die even if they come…”

“We are not leaving as well!”

Princ.i.p.al Qi clenched her teeth and said, “The Mt. Spirit Beast College has been there for more than ten thousand years. Since the Princ.i.p.al is going to venture the outside world, we have to take the responsibility to take care of the college. Of course, we will send away all our students first. If we can stay alive this time, we will try to restore the college again.”

Qian Gui exchanged a look with Zhan Yiming, grinned widely, and said, “Jiang Yi, don’t worry about us, just go! You can let Qian w.a.n.guan and Zhan Wushuang follow you if you want. My clan and Zhan Yiming’s clan will a.s.sist King Qingtian to conquer the continent. So even if the two Heaven Monarch Realm experts come, we are still able to protect ourselves. They won’t be able to destroy both of our clans unless the two of them can kill everyone on this continent so… ke-ke!”

Zhan Yiming agreed with a nod. They would definitely not want to leave now because they believed that the continent would be conquered soon, and they would gain lots of fame and power by then.

They both had enough confidence that the two Heaven Monarch Realm absolute experts were unable to eradicate both of their clans even though there were strong. Their clan members were all over the world, and if they were afraid of getting implicated, they could hide behind the scene and put their clan members in the dark.

“The Western Garrison Army can’t operate without a chief commander. I’ll stay, too.” Jiang Rentu followed.

After considering for a long while, General Lu said, “I’ll go, Regent. I will go ask all our generals to see if anyone else would like to follow me. If not, I’ll just let them follow King Qingtian…”

General Lu knew it very well that the Great Xia Kingdom would be the first to suffer if the two Heaven Monarch experts decided to exact revenge. It was directly under Jiang Yi, and so they have to hide on the concealed island for now to wait for Jiang Yi’s next rise.

Jiang Yi helplessly sighed and said, “Okay, fine, I will give all my army to you, Qingtian. Please do conquer the continent as fast as possible and make sure that you have a plan to deal with the Martial Arts Hall. General Rentu, Uncle Yiming, and Uncle Qian Gui, please go ahead and a.s.sist the King Qingtian. Qingtian, please take good care of them and their clan members, as well as Mt. Spirit Beast College…”

“Don’t worry, our Supreme Marshal of the Empire! Yiming and I are relatives by marriage. He would never let them get hurt unless Qingtian is dead!”

Yun Qingtian bowed deeply to thank Jiang Yi, the person who had just given him millions of soldiers and the chance to conquer the whole continent. With the help of Grandma Silver Flower, Zhan Yiming, Qian Gui, and their gangs, he believed that it was just a matter of time now to eradicate the Northern Liang Kingdom and the Northern Mang Kingdom since there were currently no Vajra Realm martial experts.

Of course…

Whether they could survive after the arrival of the two Heaven Monarch Realm absolute experts would be all up to the heavens to decide.

One day later, after s.h.i.+fting the thousands of people called up by General Lu into the Universal Palace, Jiang Yi summoned the Yazi Beast and left the place. He stood on the Yazi Beast and waved his hands to say goodbye to those people behind, before heading towards the east without looking back again.

Yun Qingtian led everyone with him to bow to Jiang Yi and shouted loudly: “As the old saying goes—the trapped dragon will always set off to the sea one day. Please take care, our Supreme Marshal of the Empire! We will wait for your next rise!”
