Swish!
An enormous giant creature flew onto a cliff at the very north of the continent. Jiang Yi sat cross-legged on the Yazi Beast, feeling a bit lost.
Dugu Qiu had died, and he had destroyed the Martial Arts Hall. Jiang Yi had learned of many things, but he was also confused about many more. For example—he could not understand how Jiang Bieli sneaked into the Hades Abyss, how Ji Tingyu managed to escape from the enormous pressure of his Massacre Intent, and if the Martial Arts Hall would really send two envoys at Heaven Monarch realm in one and a half months like what Dugu Qiu had said.
He felt really lost and did not know what to do at the moment. The fact that Su Ruoxue had been taken away by Ji Tingyu made it even worse. That was why when the Yazi Beast asked him if he wanted to go back to Stellarsky City, he did not know what to answer.
“Go to Starfall Island first!”
He pondered for a while and recalled Jiang Bieli’s last words. He decided to go to Starfall Island first to bury Jiang Bieli’s only remaining hand to fulfill Jiang Bieli’s last wish. Also, he could ask for Shui Youlan’s advice at Starfall Island.
The Yazi Beast turned into a stream of light and flew rapidly towards the east. Jiang Yi consumed two tablets of healing medicine and lied down on the Yazi Beast’s back, with all kinds of random thoughts going on in his head.
Unconsciously, he fell asleep after a while. Although he had won, Jiang Bieli’s death and the fact that Su Ruoxue had been taken away by the enemy made him mentally exhausted. His body was also extremely weak at the moment, due to the excessive loss of blood from his serious injury.
The Yazi Beast flew smoothly, and they did not encounter any danger on their way. In just one and a half days, they had already set off to the sea. Jiang Yi was still sleeping deeply by then.
The Starfall Island was northeast of the continent, not too far away from the Hades Abyss. Two and a half days after setting off to the sea, the Starfall Island was almost on sight; but Jiang Yi was still in a deep sleep.
“Jiang Yi! We have reached the Starfall Island!”
The Yazi Beast’s deep, loud voice woke Jiang Yi up. After sleeping for four days and four nights, Jiang Yi had recovered both physically and mentally quite well. He went to check on the broken bones in his legs and discovered that they had almost recovered, but it might still be too soon for him to walk.
“Let’s go in!”
He took a deep breath, forced himself to expend his energy, and used his divine senses to scan through the Universal Palace. He found out that although the medical efficacy had almost been depleted in Jiang Xiaonu and other people’s bodies, they were still very weak and could hardly sit up.
Swish!
Before they entered the Starfall Island, a white figure flew out from the tallest palace below them rapidly. Jiang Yi recognized that figure and forced a smile on his face. There was still blood stasis on his mouth, making his smile really ugly.
“Jiang Yi, you have been to the Hades Abyss?”
Shui Youlan made a voice transmission as soon as she came up. After seeing Jiang Yi’s nod, she scanned through the surrounding cautiously and then made another voice transmission to Jiang Yi: “Don’t say too much first; follow me!”
She flew rapidly to Jiang Yi, held Jiang Yi in one hand, and then flew back downward. “Yazi Beast! You can find somewhere to rest first!” She left one sentence to the Yazi Beast.
“Wow!”
The coming of Jiang Yi had surprised the people in the Water Moon Observatory. Many people looked at him with admiration and respect. Although the Water Moon Observatory did not participate in the war, they knew what was happening in the outside world very well. Jiang Yi’s glorious performance in the Stellarsky City War had brought a huge stir in the Water Moon Observatory.
Shui Youlan brought Jiang Yi into the Clear Sky Pavilion and asked the servants to put specially-made herb medicine on his legs and provide him with food.
After Jiang Yi finished his meal with fulfillment, Shui Youlan asked the servants to leave. “Jiang Yi, I need to apologize to you for not providing help when you were having a conflict with the Martial Arts Hall. It was not because I forgot about Lady Piaopiao’s kindness in the past, but I have to consider for my tens of thousands of disciples of the Water Moon Observatory…” she said.
“En, I can understand. I won’t blame you for that.”
Jiang Yi nodded. He knew that the Martial Arts Hall was really powerful and that Shui Youlan was clearly aware of some inside stories. He could understand why Shui Youlan could not help him because that would risk her whole clan’s life.
Shui Youlan forced a smile and asked immediately and nervously, “When you sent someone to ask me about the Martial Arts Hall last time, I didn’t provide you with the information I know not because I did not want to—it was because I felt that the Hades Abyss was really dangerous. I did not want you to take the risk. I didn’t expect that you still went there in the end. How did you find out? You… killed Dugu Qiu?”
Jiang Yi’s expression suddenly went pale and said with a deep, low voice, “Jiang Bieli told me about that, but… he died trying to save me. I have killed everyone in the Martial Arts Hall, except for Ji Tingyu…”
After explaining everything that happened in the Hades Abyss as well as what Dugu Qiu had said to Shui Youlan, he asked, “Hostess Shui, is the Martial Arts Hall really as powerful as Dugu Qiu described?”
“Yes, it is!”
Shui Youlan suddenly became serious and fell into deep thought. Half an hour later, she finally spoke, “Dugu Qiu was right. The Martial Arts Hall is indeed the uncrowned king of the world. It was your mother who told me about all those. I don’t think Dugu Qiu would lie. One and a half months later, there will definitely be two envoys at the Heaven Monarch realm coming. Jiang Yi, have you thought of how to deal with that yet?”
“What should I do?”
Jiang Yi really had no idea about how he should deal with this situation. He knew that he would definitely not be able to fight against the powerful people of the Heaven Monarch realm. If he stayed, everyone would have to die.
Noticing Jiang Yi’s depression, Shui Youlan frowned and said with a deep, loud voice, “Jiang Yi, we are running out of time; why are you still so indecisive? You will put everyone’s life in danger if you continue to be like this. Now, there are only two options left for you: one is that you find a secret island, bring your relatives and friends there, and live in seclusion for the rest of your life; or you can choose to take an adventure in the outside world, but that would also mean that you might lose your life anytime… and that the Martial Arts Hall would never let you off. Anyways, no matter which way you choose to go, you can’t stay in the Stellarsky Continent anymore.”
“Uh…”
Jiang Yi rubbed his face and pondered about Shui Youlan’s words silently.
Shui Youlan’s eyes turned sharp suddenly and said with a serious tone, “Jiang Yi, I personally advise you to take the challenge to go around the outside world. You are still very young and have a bright future ahead. As long as you find the Destitute Dragon Grass, you can still rise again. Although the outside world is enormous and full of risks and danger—think about it, you are someone who took less than three years to stand at the pinnacle of the Stellarsky Continent. I believe that you will be able to stand at the pinnacle of the Stellarsky Domain in the future. Furthermore, don’t you want to save Su Ruoxue and find your mother? Don’t you want revenge?
“Mother? Ruoxue? Revenge?”
Jiang Yi suddenly turned his head up, with full of hope and energy in his previously depressed-looking eyes.
Yes, he was only 18 years old!
He was someone who only took three years to stand at the pinnacle of the Stellarsky Continent. It was not true that he could not have a chance of winning against the powerful Martial Arts Hall. As long as he could find the Destitute Dragon Grass to recover his body constitution, there was still a chance for him to make a breakthrough to the Heaven Monarch Realm… or even higher if he continued to cultivate for ten or twenty years—or even for the remaining of his life.
With Jiang Bieli’s death and knowing about how strong the Martial Arts Hall was, his will was finally invigorated. He retrieved his fighting spirit again.
Finding a secret island and living in seclusion with his relatives and friends for his remaining life? Concealing his identity and living with worry and guilt forever?
That was not the kind of life he wanted.
He took a deep breath and said with determination, “Ruoxue, wait for me! I will definitely try to find the Destitute Dragon Grass and save you! Martial Arts Hall—although you guys are strong, I will definitely destroy you all completely one day as long as I am still alive!”
