Chapter 373: Behave Atrociously
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Witch G.o.d’s ancient formation had been broken!
Many people found it hard to accept this fact. The Witch G.o.d had been a symbol of paragon in the Heaven Mystics Kingdom. Even that Vajra Realm martial expert couldn’t exit the Witch G.o.d’s forbidden ground after entering. In the hearts of the Heaven Mystics Kingdom’s citizens, the Witch G.o.d’s strength had already attained the Heaven Monarch Realm; and his proficiency in sorcery arts and restrictions were unmatched.
The Witch G.o.d’s ancient formation was something that the Witch G.o.d left for the Yun Clan’s descendants. Before he left, he once mentioned that this ancient formation was challenging for regular Vajra Realm martial experts to break into. When the Yun Clan’s descendants were facing the danger of eradication, they could activate this formation and save their lives.
In fact, it was proven that this ancient formation was very powerful. Nine hundred years ago, one of the clans in the Heaven Mystics Kingdom staged a mutiny and invaded the royal palace. Back then, the royal guards lured half of the enemies away; and the Yun Clan was nearly eradicated. Finally, this formation endured the attacks from hundreds of Soul Travel Realm experts for one day and two nights. The Yun Clan was able to be reached by the rescue army afterward.
Now this formation had been effortlessly broken by a simple wave of Jiang Yi’s hand. Wouldn’t everyone be in shock?
After Jiang Yi released the Ma.s.sacre Intent, everyone was enveloped by the dreadful killing aura; and the shock in their heart turned into fear. Some peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts realized that they were immobilized and couldn’t even gather a hint of battle intent. They could feel nothing but extreme fear.
For today’s plan, the Witch Empress did seal up the entire city. If any of those royal guards dared to make any strange moves, they would all be executed without mercy. The Witch Empress even personally gave her decree. Even if someone was to relay a message to the king, they might have to consider the retribution from the Witch Empress.
So…
It was possible that no one went to send the message to the king, and no one knew about the situation in the city. This allowed Jiang Yi to effortlessly cleanse the city with blood!
Back at the battle outside of the Summer Rain City, the Heaven Mystics Kingdom sent 300,000 soldiers; and some generals present in this siege partic.i.p.ated in that battle, too. They had witnessed Jiang Yi’s insane strength which slaughtered humans like dogs. If he truly intended to cleanse the city with blood—by the time the king and Grandma Silver Flower were back, the Mystic Heaven City would have been turned into a purgatory.
Swis.h.!.+
Right now, Jiang Yi seemed to be prepared to do such a thing? He rushed at the Witch Empress like a violent dragon, and his Fire Dragon Sword cleaved down at the Witch Empress without any hesitation. Two fire dragons and tens of thousands of wind dragons were shot out with a destructive aura presence.
“Pfff…”
Before the two fire dragons were meters away, the Witch Empress suddenly vomited a mouthful of fresh blood and vanished from where she was.
Pong! Pong!
The two fire dragons flew across and crashed on the Witch Empress’ carriage. That luxurious carriage immediately exploded while the shock wave sent nearby royal guards blasted, leaving the place in complete disorder.
“Instant-s.h.i.+ft?”
Jiang Yi’s expression changed and just as he was bewildered, Yun Fei’s secret guard transmitted a message: “Lord Regent, this is a blood escape sorcery art. This sorcery art can only be used once, and the Witch Empress shouldn’t have gone far. She must be hiding in the nearby vicinity. Do a quick search and don’t let her escape.”
“Blood escape?”
Jiang Yi’s brows raised. He quickly shut his eyes and channeled two wisps of black essence force to his ears, enhancing his hearing ability to insane functionality. He could hear everything in the entire Sage King Residence, even the gra.s.shoppers which were in a distant corner.
“To the west!”
His eyes abruptly opened, and he felt an abnormal airflow in the west and could subtly hear fleeing footsteps.
“Witch Empress, you still want to escape?”
His legs bent down, and the surface of the ground shook as he shot out like a violent dragon, rus.h.i.+ng towards the west gates of the Sage King Residence.
“Kill!”
Once Jiang Yi moved, the lingering killing aura naturally went weak. All the peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts under the Witch Empress all made their desperate moves. They were all inflicted with the Noxious Maggot Bewitchment, and if the Witch Empress died, they wouldn’t be able to live. Thus, they naturally wanted to delay Jiang Yi.
Buzz-Buzz! Chi-Chi! Boom-Boom!
A few of them released their sorcery arts at the same time; meteorites, lightning, wind blades, and ice arrows flocked towards him. The others desperately rushed at Jiang Yi and drew their weapons to release their essence force attack.
“You must be tired of living!”
Jiang Yi originally promised the Witch G.o.d to preserve the Yun clansmen and didn’t want to have a ma.s.sacre. After seeing all these people taking the initiative, he was instantly furious. There might be Yun clansmen among these people, but he couldn’t bother anymore.
Buzz!
His body flashed as he instant-s.h.i.+fted back, using his Ma.s.sacre Intent to envelop these people. His eyes were like a blade, which swept across the faces of these peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts. He spoke in a cold voice, “Since all of you want to die, I shall fulfill your wish.”
His body constantly flickered as his Fire Dragon Sword thrust out like wandering dragons, which was accompanied by sword cries. All the experts were all turned into shreds. The combination of the Ma.s.sacre Intent and the instant s.h.i.+ft was too ferocious. Most of them couldn’t even react before they got slain.
Bang!
The eight strongest subordinates under the Witch Empress were all slain. Jiang Yi’s eyes swept across over a thousand royal guards and yelled out, “I will only kill the Witch Empress today. If anyone dares to obstruct me, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Buzz!
Jiang Yi continued to instant-s.h.i.+ft. The Witch Empress had escaped toward the west, and it was needless to say that she wanted to exit through the west city gates and seek help from the king and Grandma Silver Flower. As long as he continued to instant-s.h.i.+ft towards the west, he would definitely have the chance to kill her.
Swis.h.!.+
As Jiang Yi left, the royal guards all hesitated as they weren’t in a good position to help either the Witch Empress or Yun Fei and Yun Xian in this internal strife. Furthermore, Yun Xian’s side had a Jiang Yi, which made things even more difficult for them. Jiang Yi was too powerful and could kill peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts like cutting watermelons. Even if they went to pursue Jiang Yi, they would just die in vain. They couldn’t just stay here and do nothing either, or else the king would peel their skins after he returned, right?
Swis.h.!.+
One of the commanders’ eyes flickered as he suddenly shot a signal flare into the sky, which exploded. The rest of the commanders and the Witch Empress’ subordinates realized it and immediately shot out their signal flares, too.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Soon enough, there were fireworks blossoming in the sky above Sage King Residence. Even though it was in the day, it still illuminated the entire Mystic Heaven City. That loud echo actually spread out a hundred miles from the Mystic Heaven City.
“Chase!”
One of the commanders waved his hand, commanding the royal guards to chase after Jiang Yi. It was obvious that they didn’t put in their full effort and was just putting on a facade. Since they couldn’t pick a side from the two factions, they had to put on a show and wait for the king to come back and judge this himself.
Wu-Wu!
The horns from the royal palace’s direction quickly sounded off as platoons of royal guards rushed over to their side. The entire Mystic Heaven City was boiling like a barrel of oil as there were royal guards flocking towards Jiang Yi in a frenzy.
All because Jiang Yi was pursuing an absolute beauty wearing a phoenix robe. Only the Witch Empress was qualified to wear the phoenix robe in the Mystic Heaven City.
“What should I do now?”
When Jiang Yi saw the fireworks in the sky and the royal guards that flocked towards him, he looked into the distance like a spirit fox. He constantly hopped on the roof to pursue after the Witch Empress while his eyes flashed with hesitation.
The signal flare would definitely alert the king and Grandma Silver Flower. If he was to leave now, he might have the chance to escape with Yun Fei and Yun Xian. The Witch Empress was just in front of him, and she was a vicious and scheming individual. If he didn’t eliminate her today, she would continue to provide a lot of trouble in the future.
He gritted his teeth and continued to instant-s.h.i.+ft and pursue the Witch Empress. He ignored all the experts who flew over from the alleys and courtyards. He would use his Ma.s.sacre Intent to suppress them, not even allowing them a chance to approach and release their essence attacks.
“Die!”
After dozens of breaths later, he finally closed the gap to about three kilometers. The Witch Empress’ strength wasn’t bad and was at the fifth stage of Soul Travel Realm. A pity that her essence force was damaged from the release of the blood escape sorcery art, which reduced her speed drastically, allowing Jiang Yi to catch up effortlessly.
Swis.h.!.+
Just as Jiang Yi wanted to instant-s.h.i.+ft again and used his Ma.s.sacre Intent to suppress the Witch Empress to kill her… there was a silver figure that burst across the sky from the west. It was like a silver rainbow that drew across the horizon, and it took just a blink of the eye to reach the sky above Jiang Yi and the Witch Empress.
An even more dreadful aura presence enveloped the entire Mystic Heaven City, which immobilized Jiang Yi. Concurrently, an extremely cold voice resonated loudly. “Jiang Yi? Your guts seem very full, huh? You actually dare to behave atrociously in the Mystic Heaven City? This old woman would like to see how can protect yourself this time?”
