Chapter 340: No One Can Rescue Him

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the depths of Mt. Thirty Thousand, eighteen demon kings were moving rapidly, which looked terrifying. Everywhere they went through, they would trample out a giant passageway, causing all the nearby demonic beasts to prostrate and cower on the ground. It felt as though the sky was going to collapse.

“Ji-Ji!”

A little fox on the blood red giant bear’s shoulder was calling out with anxiety, seemingly urging this group of demon kings to go faster. That blood red demon king had no choice but to increase its speed again. Its legs, which were as thick as a human body, would leap from mountain to mountain—causing tremors.

After making haste for several days, the Fairy Peak could be seen in the distance. The other seventeen demon kings didn’t dare to ascend and merely stood guard at the bottom. The blood red demon king carried the little fox and flew up. Its claws would gently grab at the cliff of the Fairy Peak, launching its massive body up before landing heavily on the Fairy Peak.

Swish!

The little fox jumped off from Xiao Hong and ran into the Thearch Palace nervously, calling out non-stop. The blood red demon king followed behind with cold eyes, and there were no signs of emotion.

Buzz!

Before the little fox rushed into the Thearch Palace, a beautiful and alluring figure suddenly appeared outside the palace and spoke with some suspicion, “Xiao Fei, what happened?”

“Ji-Ji!”

The little fox flew into the embrace of the Demon Empress and called out non-stop. Its petite face was filled with anxiety while its gem-like eyes had tears in it, which made it looked very pitiful.

“Jiang Yi entered the Witch God’s forbidden ground?”

The Demon Empress and demon king could clearly understand what the little fox was saying. Her face quickly turned grave as she muttered and sighed. She shook her head and said, “Xiao Fei, it is not that Empress Mother doesn’t want to help him. I can’t help him.”

“Ji-Ji!”

The little fox immediately exclaimed its grievance while the blood red demon king asked with some doubt, “Thearch, is that Witch God’s forbidden ground so incredible? You can’t enter even with your formidable power?”

“En... that Witch God is truly a genius with extraordinary talents!”

The Demon Empress extended her hand and rubbed the little fox’s head, indicating for her to not be anxious. She paused for a moment before she explained, “It isn’t the case where I cannot enter, but this Witch God set up a powerful restriction. If a martial expert above the fifth stage of the Vajra Realm was to enter the forbidden ground, the self-destruct restriction would be activated. It will blast the entire forbidden ground into smithereens. If I am to enter, not only will I not rescue Jiang Yi; but I will also make things worse for him.

“That Witch God attained the Heaven Monarch Realm before his death. His mastery of sorcery and restriction is rather profound. If a martial artist below the fifth stage of the Vajra Realm was to enter, that person will certainly be dead. Xiao Hong, if you are to enter it, you will also perish in there. So, in this heaven and earth... no one can rescue him.”

“Ji-Ji!”

The little fox’s gem-like eyes revealed a trace of despair. If the Demon Empress couldn’t rescue Jiang Yi, who else in the Stellarsky Continent could?

The blood red demon king shook its head and sigh with deep breaths, remaining silent. The Demon Empress smiled and suddenly spoke, “Xiao Fei, you shouldn’t despair! In history, no one ever came back out from the Witch God’s forbidden ground, but it doesn’t mean that Jiang Yi can’t.”

En? The thearch has so much confidence in that kid?

The little fox’s eyes lit up while the blood red demon king felt weird and lifted its head, asking with a muffled voice, “Thearch, you have always regarded that human kid with importance. Is there something special about him?”

The Demon Empress nodded and replied, “That kid is indeed different from others. His dantian is very strange, and he can already cultivate true essence at such a young age. He can even comprehend dao patterns. I suspect that his cultivation art... isn’t from the Stellarsky Continent. His mother has an extraordinary background, and his constitution should have been inherited from his mother. This kid has too many unknown possibilities, and I reckon that he should be able to walk out of the Witch God’s forbidden ground successfully. Of course, if he can’t, it means that I have made a wrong judgment; and I have to bring Xiao Fei along with me three years later. Sigh...”

There was a trace of anxiety in the demon king’s eyes as it spoke in a deep voice, “Thearch, can’t you bring us along? We will risk our lives to protect the little princess. We might not be competent, but in crucial moments, we are still able to escape along with the little princess.”

“It is useless...”

The Demon Empress shook her head and let out a smile of misery. “My enemy is too powerful. Your measly strength... wouldn’t even be able to withstand a single blow!

“Enough!”

Seeing that the little fox and demon king were about to say something, the Demon Empress shook her hand and said, “Stop all these talking. Xiao Fei, you shouldn’t go out and stay in the mountains. Xiao Hong, look after her. If Jiang Yi comes out, you can go find him to play. If he can’t, then it will be his fate. I will go into seclusion and strive to comprehend that dao pattern to raise my strength.”

Buzz!

The Demon Empress threw Xiao Fei over to the demon king and vanished with a flash, leaving behind an imperative Xiao Fei and a demon king which was shaking its head.

...

“Is there no news from the Demon Empress?”

There was a concealed courtyard in a small town in the northern part of the Great Xia Kingdom. Qian Wanguan was asking his subordinates with a severe expression while Zhan Wushuang was looking at this person with a tensed-up expression. After seeing that person shaking his head, their expressions were filled with disappointment.

The little fox had returned to Mt. Thirty Thousand for a very long time and must have seen the Demon Empress. If the Demon Empress was going to assist, the demon king would have relayed the message. There was no news up until now, and it was possible that the Demon Empress wasn’t going to help.

“Send someone. Send someone to look for the little fox!”

Qian Wanguan and Zhan Wushuang finally gritted their teeth and instructed a Soul Travel Realm expert from each clan to search for the little fox and the demon king in the depths of the mountain and scout for information.

Without any affirmed information, the two of them were ashamed to look for Su Ruoxue and Jiang Xiaonu in Summer Rain City. Jiang Yi mistakenly entered the Witch God’s forbidden ground because of the incident involving their two clans. The Great Xia Kingdom was already in this predicament and might be extinguished at any moment. If they didn’t have Jiang Yi... it was imaginable how dejected and vexed the two of them were. It was as though they were being tormented in hell every single day.

“Report!”

Two days later, a scout brought them despairing news. That blood red demon king conveyed the intentions of the Demon Empress that no one could rescue Jiang Yi. Martial experts couldn’t enter the Witch God’s forbidden ground; otherwise, it would activate the self-destruct restriction. The Witch God’s forbidden ground would explode, causing instant death for everyone inside.

The demon king provided another message that gave them ignited a speck of hope in their midst of despair. The Demon Empress mentioned that Jiang Yi might be able to rescue himself and that Jiang Yi might be the only individual to escape the Witch God’s forbidden ground in three thousand years.

Despite the fact that this news was cruel, Zhan Wushuang still decided to send this message to Su Ruoxue. The two of them quietly departed for Summer Rain City to see Su Ruoxue and apologize for their mistakes.

Su Ruoxue suffered during this period of time, and she didn’t even dare to sleep. She had been busy with government affairs without rest and finally fell asleep after she was extremely exhausted. She would wake up from shock in her dreams, yelling out ‘King Father!’ and ‘Jiang Lang!’ and drenching her pillow in tears.

She had lost around four kilograms during this time, making her clothes oversized and her face haggard. When having an audience with the officials, she had to pretend to be calm and didn’t dare to reveal any hint of anxiety and concern. Only her personal aide, the old grandma, knew how much she had suffered.

Fortunately, she was very smart and arranged everything flawlessly. She asked someone to make a human skin mask that looked like Jiang Yi and asked someone with a similar body build as Jiang Yi to pretend to be Jiang Yi. That person would expose himself in the city from time to time, calming the military and the citizens and helping to get rid of Jiang Yi’s suspicions.

The Heaven Mystics Kingdom quickly found out that Yun Fei and her younger brother didn’t do anything. Neither did the experts from the various clans. The people that assassinated Yun Lu were definitely from other kingdoms, and Jiang Yi’s suspicion was the greatest because he nearly killed Yun Lu at the Glory Palace Hall.

Su Ruoxue’s arrangements temporarily eliminated Jiang Yi’s suspicion. Even a Vajra Realm martial expert wouldn’t be able to return to the Summer Rain City from Netherworld Forest in a single day.

Of course, this was only temporary. If Jiang Yi continued to go missing or never return, it would surely expose this facade. The Heaven Mystics Kingdom would then be able to immediately determine that Jiang Yi was the culprit, and by then, an army would march towards the Great Xia Kingdom again.
