Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiang Yi didn’t reply to Jiang Yunhai and looked over at the fifth stage Soul Travel Realm experts instead. His body was surging with killing aura as the Fire Dragon Sword appeared in his hand. He then burst out with a roar, “Let go of my Grandfather, and I shall spare your life!”

“Haha!”

The middle-aged man let out loud laughter and looked at Jiang Yi with a mocking face. He then sneered, “Jiang Yi, Patrol Envoy Jiang, Dragon Fang General, Criminal of Treason, and the Savior of the Continent! You managed to save the world, but can you save your Grandfather? I am not a fool! If I released your grandfather, I will only have death waiting for me! You have so many men, and I am certainly unable to escape. Why shouldn’t I just die along with Jiang Yunhai? What do you think? Lord Patrol Envoy!”

“Swish! Swish! Swish!”

Everyone’s face was miserably pale. This martial artist was already at the fifth stage of Soul Travel Realm, and it seemed like Jiang Yunhai’s... dantian had been crippled? There were many of them who could kill this man within seconds, but no one could guarantee that they were able to save Jiang Yunhai.

“Kneel!”

The middle-aged martial artist suddenly revealed a malevolent expression as he yelled out. The spirit artifact moved in his hand, drawing a blood scar on Jiang Yunhai’s neck. He then yelled out furiously at Jiang Yi again, “Kneel for me! Otherwise, I will kill Jiang Yunhai!”

“Bang!”

Jiang Yi didn’t even hesitate and knelt down on the floor with both knees, looking at that man with sincere eyes as he spoke, “Let go of my grandfather, and I will promise you anything.”

“Hahaha! The Empire’s Patrol Envoy? The Savior of the World has knelt for me!”

The middle-aged man laughed loudly so much that even his tears were forced out. Jiang Yunhai, who was strangled by the man, suddenly spoke with anger, “Stand up, Young Lord! What did I teach you? A man has gold under their knees; he can kneel to heaven, to earth, and to his parents, but never to death! Stand up... or I will rather die!”

Jiang Yi shut his eyes and gritted his teeth, but he insisted on kneeling. The middle-aged man’s mouth was filled with this sinister smile as he yelled out, “You undying old man, shut up! Jiang Yi, listen to me... cripple your dantian, and I will immediately release Jiang Yunhai.”

“Patrol Envoy, don’t do it!”

Ling Yi and his men yelled out quickly, but Jiang Yi’s eyes had this flash of ruthlessness. Just as the Fire Dragon Sword in his hand was about to draw across his abdomen, he suddenly burst out with a yell, “Ling Yi, do it!”

“En?”

Ling Yi was startled. Once he looked over at Jiang Yunhai, he immediately reacted, turning his body into an afterimage and rushing forward. That middle-aged martial artist was bewildered as he thought that Jiang Yi regarded Jiang Yunhai with importance. Since he already knelt and was about to cripple his dantian, why did he suddenly ask Ling Yi to make a move? Was Jiang Yi not afraid that he would kill Jiang Yunhai?

“Die!”

Since he couldn’t understand, a trace of fierce intent appeared in this expert’s eye as he cleaved the spirit artifact in his hand towards Jiang Yunhai’s head. Since Jiang Yunhai’s dantian was already crippled, he was confident that before Ling Yi could kill him, he would be able to kill Jiang Yunhai.

Right at this moment, something strange happened.

Jiang Yunhai’s body suddenly lit up, and then... his body vanished the next moment and appeared beside Jiang Yi!

“This... what is this power? Instant shift?”

The middle-aged man was filled with disbelief while General He and the others looked as though they saw a ghost. Such magical power was never heard before. Jiang Yunhai was only at the first or second stage of the Soul Travel Realm previously, right? Right now, his dantian was already crippled; how could he suddenly shift away?

“Bang!”

Ling Yi didn’t even have any hesitation as his heaven artifact long saber continued drawing across, sliding across the middle-aged expert like an afterimage. This expert was instantly turned into mince and was definitely dead.

“Grandfather, are you alright?!”

Jiang Yi bounced back up and hugged the pale Jiang Yunhai who was on the verge of falling over. The latter closed his eyes and gestured with his hand that was lacking in strength. “No problem. I just used up a third of my soul spirit power. I will live.”

Finishing his reply, Jiang Yunhai’s body went soft and immediately fainted. Jiang Yi let out a deep, burdened breath and said, “General He, many thanks for your help this time. Help me express my appreciation to your King. Since my Grandfather had been rescued, we will leave immediately and shall not trouble you anymore.”

General He took a glance at Jiang Yunhai and understood that Jiang Yi and Jiang Yunhai were putting on a show earlier. Jiang Yunhai must have sent a hidden message to Jiang Yi; hence, the reason why they were able to coordinate so well. Their objective was naturally to make that middle-aged martial artist drop his guard so that Jiang Yunhai could release that strange power.

He murmured for a moment before he asked, “Why not stay in this city for a period time, and I shall invite some divine doctors to treat Lord Yunhai?”

“There is no need. I have other matters to attend to and shall take my leave!”

Jiang Yi shook his head and used his black essence force to scan his grandfather’s body. Other than Jiang Yunhai’s crippled dantian, there weren’t any other severe injuries, which could be settled with his recuperation medicine.

Jiang Yi led Ling Yi and walked out, heading straight towards the Forest of Sin after exiting the city. Once they arrived at the border of the forest, it was already daytime. Jiang Yi placed Jiang Yunhai by the side and wrapped his fist while speaking to Ling Yi and the others, “Everyone, thank you for the assistance. I still have to make haste towards Mt. Spirit Beast College. Let us part ways here! Once you return to the imperial capital, help me send my regards to Her Highness. If there is a chance, I shall return to Stellarsky City.”

“This...”

Ling Yi asked with some concern, “Lord Patrol Envoy, is it safe to leave by yourself? I think we should escort you to Mt. Spirit Beast College before returning to Stellarsky City. Otherwise, the Princess will reprimand us.”

“There is no problem with safety!”

Jiang Yi had the Zouwu beast and was untraceable by the enemy if he was to travel underground. Since Ling Yi said it like this, he wouldn’t want to make things difficult for them. With everyone’s speed, they would arrive at Mt. Spirit Beast College fast without much delay.

“Big Huang!”

Jiang Yi summoned the Zouwu Beast and jumped on while carrying Jiang Yunhai before he spoke, “Let us travel underground and pass under the Divine Martial Kingdom, heading straight for the Mt. Spirit Beast College. We should be able to reach the place in less than half a month, and it should be safer as well.”

“Alright then!”

It wouldn’t be good for Ling Yi to reject Jiang Yi’s proposal, and it was indeed much safer as well. It was rather crowded for everyone to ride on the Zouwu Beast, but it didn’t matter.

“Moo-Moo!”

The Zouwu Beast roared a few times before it quickly dug into the ground and rushed straight towards the Divine Martial Kingdom.

...

General He quickly reported about Jiang Yi’s incident back to Saint Light City, which instantly gave the King of Saint Spirit Kingdom relief. It was best that Jiang Yi—the God of Pestilence—was gone; otherwise, who knew what other troubles would break out.

“Eh?”

He took a glance at the messaging jade talisman and saw the last segment while his eyes had this flash of amazement. His brown long hair fluttered without any wind while his body emitted a formidable aura. This King of the Saint Spirit Kingdom was actually an expert, too.

“Burning of the soul spirit? An instant shifting art? Jiang Yunhai actually had such powers?”

His tiger eyes flickered as he stroked his brown long hair. He seemingly thought of something and shouted, “Someone request for the Old Marshal of the Kingdom here!”

After a short moment, a long-bearded old man draped in gray robes walked in with a scepter. He held his chest and bowed to speak, “My King, are you looking for this old servant?”

The Saint Spirit Kingdom’s King had bewildered eyes as he spoke in a serious tone, “Old Marshal, have you heard of a magical power that uses up soul spirit for one to instantly shift for more than three meters away?”

“Soul-Devouring Shifting Art!”

The eyes of the old Marshal suddenly shot out with radiance in the cloak. He then spoke loudly, “Where did you see such a person with this power? It is a famed power across the sea... could it be that a spy has infiltrated into the Stellarsky Continent?!”

“Over the sea?”

The Saint Spirit Kingdom’s King had this grave expression while his eyes flickered non-stop. He spoke only after pausing for some time, “Jiang Yunhai is an indigenous citizen of the Divine Martial Kingdom though. Could it be that... it was Yi Piaopiao who came from over the sea?”
