Regarding such a big matter, Jiang Yi did not dare to make the decision on his own. He told the elder he had to discuss it with everyone else. The elder nodded as his phantom image disappeared within the Fire Dragon Sword. The light shield also disappeared as Jiang Yi flew downwards.

Looking at the heaps of corpses and wounded, at the damage wrecked by battle, and the unconscious Buddha Thearch and the rest; Jiang Yi could not immediately gather everyone for a discussion. He could only gather the great family clan heads to order everyone to clean up the battlefield, save the wounded, and track the location of the zombie soldiers and zombie generals. He also ordered the remnants of the Jian Clan, the Tu Clan, and the clans that had submitted to the Heaven Nether Sect to be captured.

Jiang Yi’s orders... no one dared to disobey!

Jiang Yi had turned the situation around and had saved everyone; he had saved the Stellarsky Domain!

Furthermore, that all-powerful elder’s remnant soul had surfaced from Jiang Yi’s Fire Dragon Sword. At this moment—in the eyes of the alliance army, Jiang Yi wielded absolute authority. His standing even surpassed the Buddha Thearch and the Saint Empress’.

The Tu Clan, the Jian Clan—as well as those that had submitted to the Heaven Nether Sect—all didn’t resist and gave themselves up. Jiang Yi had killed the Beast Thearch, the Sword Thearch, the North Thearch, and Xing Mo. He had also depended on that mysterious elder’s remnant soul and killed the Netherworld General who was comparable to a deity. Who dared to resist? What was the point of resisting?

The scouts sent to the Underground World all came back. The zombie soldiers and zombie generals were all very obedient and had remained in the Underground World. Probably without the Heaven Nether Sect’s formation to trigger them, they would not wreak havoc among the human race in the near future.

Jiang Yi still did not dare to be careless. He sent someone to interrogate two elders from the Wu Clan to ask about the whereabouts of the Heaven Nether Sect. He then sent dozen-odd Demigods to lead a hundred thousand soldiers to exterminate them. The Heaven Nether Sect was too dangerous; not even one of them could be left alive.

The Buddha Thearch and others were sent to Heaven Hidden Sect to recuperate. The twenty-million-strong army was sent to the Heaven Yi City and the God Bestow City to recover and await further orders.

The Buddha Thearch and Saint Empress’ injuries were pretty serious. Although they had taken the highest grade recuperation medicine, they would take at least four to five days to wake up. Regarding the options that the elder had given Jiang Yi, he did not dare to divulge anything yet; he did not want to cause chaos. A huge battle had just ended, and the alliance army had suffered heavy losses. Everyone was physically and mentally stretched to the limit; they could not suffer any more traumas so soon.

...

“Jiang Yi, what should we do regarding the rebels?”

Inside the biggest pavilion of the Heaven Hidden Sect, Tang Shenji had walked over to ask Jiang Yi for his advice. Tang Shenji’s injuries were not that heavy, and Jiang Yi still trusted him very much. Tang Shenji was very capable, and Jiang Yi had let him take care of everything.

Tang Shenji was also very smart. He came to consult Jiang Yi about everything. He was very clear that this young man had already become the rightful Overlord of the continent. If Jiang Yi wanted to be the Supreme Thearch, everyone would probably agree. To be on good terms with Jiang Yi would ensure stability for the Tang Clan from now on.

“Kill!”

Jiang Yi kept quiet for a while, and he gave the order coldly and without expression. He said, “Kill all the martial artists of these clans and send the old, weak, women, and kids to Sin Island; their descendants would become slaves. We also need to station troops on Sin Island. We cannot allow another Thirteen Clans to rise up.”

“Yes!”

Tang Shenji cupped his hands in acknowledgment and did not question Jiang Yi’s coldblooded instructions. Since the few clans had betrayed the human race and sided with the Netherworld Realm—if they were left alive, they would only be trouble. It was already benevolent of him to leave the old, weak, women, and kids alive. If it was Tang Shenji, he would probably have killed all of them.

“Old Tang!”

Jiang Yi paused for a while and said, “The Underground World’s zombie soldiers, zombie generals, and zombie beasts have to be cleansed; leaving them untouched would only bring trouble in the future. Forget it... some of the zombie generals are extremely powerful; ordinary Demigods might not be their match. Let the alliance army remain here for the time being. We’ll discuss this further after the Clan Head and the others have woken up.”

For a while, the continent had been rather calm. The remnants of the Heaven Nether Sect had not caused trouble; Tang Shenji and the others had long deployed troops to encircle Netherworld Mountain where the Heaven Nether Sect was based. All that was left for the Demigods was to come and exterminate them.

Four to five days later, the Buddha Thearch, Saint Empress, and others started to wake up. The few were all absolute masters, and their physical bodies were extremely strong. Their recovery rate was naturally fast as well. Jiang Yi waited for another day when everyone could—more or less—get out of bed before he gathered all the Thearchs, the Saint Empress, Tang Shenji, and the ancient clans’ heads for a meeting.

“A month later, the Netherworld Realm’s army would arrive. There would be a thousand Netherworld Generals! All of them would be as strong as the one we faced!”

Jiang Yi waited for everyone to gather and immediately dropped this bomb. After everyone had somewhat recovered, he then said, “An absolute master’s remnant soul is in my Fire Dragon Sword. However, we cannot rely on him to deal with the thousand Netherworld Generals. His energy is insufficient. He gave me two options...”

Jiang Yi explained the two paths to everyone and then looked towards the Buddha Thearch and Saint Empress, saying, “Let’s discuss which option to take. It would probably take a while to lay the formation; the faster we reach a decision, the better!”

Everyone became quiet as they frowned and started considering; neither path was good!

The first choice would allow the Stellarsky Domain to eke out a living for another thousand years. After that—with no more spiritual energy left, all the flowers, grass, and trees would steadily wither and die. The human race would not have food and would starve; the entire Stellarsky Domain would then become a wasteland.

The second choice would protect the Stellarsky Domain for ten years. After that—if they still did not have a way to deal with the Netherworld Realm’s Netherworld General army, the Stellarsky Domain would perish as well; every living thing would be slaughtered by the Netherworld Generals without mercy.

While the first option gave everyone in the Stellarsky Domain another thousand-odd years to live, the second offered a sliver of hope. If a few heaven-defying formidable martial artists could surface and ascend to the Heavenly Realm and live there for a decade, they could probably make a name for themselves and be able to stop the Netherworld Realm’s army.

“Something isn’t right...”

The Yin Emperor suddenly opened his mouth and said, “If we chose the first option, would we still be able to ascend? If that is still possible, we will definitely choose this one! After all, we would still have a thousand years.”

“Uh?”

Jiang Yi hurriedly focused his thoughts inside the Fire Dragon Sword. This time, the elder’s remnant soul did not avoid him and sent him a voice transmission clearly: “What a group of imbeciles! I have already said this route leads to death. People from the outside cannot enter; you guys cannot leave either! All of you can only remain here and eke out a living for the rest of your lives. Your descendants will watch as the Stellarsky Domain perishes.”

“Understood!”

Jiang Yi nodded seriously as he conveyed the elder’s words to everyone. Everyone fell silent again.

After a while, the Buddha Thearch, Saint Empress, and Xuan Thearch exchanged a glance. The Buddha Thearch represented the few of them and said, “Jiang Yi, we will choose the second path. If we choose the first one that leads to death anyway, we might as well die now! If we choose the second way, we might still have hope. We will do our best to help you to ascend. Once you ascend, you can go and find the Mystic Thearch and Lady Piaopiao. At least they could share their thoughts. You are twenty-five-years-old now; you only took ten years to reach where you are at now. We all believe that you will be able to return before ten years are up.”

“This...”

Jiang Yi’s expression became pained; while everyone believed in him, he himself didn’t. To bear the lives of billions of people on the Stellarsky Domain; he was not sure if he would be crushed alive by this pressure!

“The Mystic Thearch? My mother?”

However, after thinking about the duo, Jiang Yi suddenly gained some confidence again. The Mystic Thearch’s remnant soul had said that he was a City Lord in the Ten Thousand Saints Domain, right? The Mystic Thearch must be very formidable now; he must have many gods under his command.

Furthermore, his mother seemed to be someone important? The elder in the Fire Dragon Sword had said that Yi Piaopiao came from a relatively stronger divine race? If he could find the two of them, perhaps the Stellarsky Domain still had hope.

Jiang Yi stood up resolutely and shouted, “Alright! We will choose the path that leads to life!”
