Chapter 889: Get Out!

Sixteen Heaven Monarchs—ten were low-stage, five were middle-stage, and one high-stage Heaven Monarchs.

It was obvious that this young master’s status in the Tantai Clan wasn’t low, and after hearing the way he spoke to Tantai s.h.i.+, he should be Tantai s.h.i.+’s husband’s elder brother. This meant that he was the Tantai Clan Head’s son and a direct descendant of the purest blood. Jiang Yi heard some special meaning in their conversation, and it seemed like this… Tantai Ya had a voracious desire for Tantai s.h.i.+’s beauty.

Sixteen Heaven Monarchs. If Jiang Yi wanted to kill them, he could instantly kill all of them; and he didn’t even have to make sure of his Divine Sound Heaven Skill and the Fury of Thunder. He could simply use the Black Iron Heavy Sword and the Black Iron Armor to kill Tantai Ya within this crowd with ease.

He didn’t move!

Jiang Yi didn’t want to expose his ident.i.ty, and he didn’t want to flee after killing Tantai Ya. If he fled, Tantai s.h.i.+ would have a miserable outcome, and most importantly, if he had to forcefully break out of the siege from the peak-stage Heaven Monarchs in the city, it would be very dangerous.

He didn’t want to use his Mirage Divine Ability to disguise as a DemiG.o.d to intimidate them either. All DemiG.o.ds would attract attention, and if he was to expose a DemiG.o.d’s aura presence in the city, it would certainly attract the attention of various clans. If they were to track and investigate him, it wouldn’t be convenient for him to act in the Buddha Region.

What should I do?

Jiang Yi’s eyes flickered as his mind thought quickly, and he got an idea.

“Hmph!”

He let out a cold grunt as his aura presence climbed higher gradually and finally reached the peak stage of a Heaven Monarch. The four middle-stage Heaven Monarchs who were rus.h.i.+ng at him didn’t dare to move anymore. The high-stage Heaven Monarch beside Tantai Ya s.h.i.+vered as he immediately stepped in front and helped to block his master.

The rest of the guards had pale expression and fear in their eyes. Song Zhong who was still on the ground had a flash of light in his eyes while Tantai s.h.i.+ held her face and shook her head. “My Lord, you must not!”

Tantai Ya had an awful expression as Jiang Yi’s powerful aura presence was locked on him, and he had sensed the presence of death. He was in possession of an emergency signal flare, but he didn’t dare to move recklessly. He knew clearly that if he dared to make a reckless move, he would be killed in an instant!

“Your Tantai Clan is really impressive, huh?!”

Jiang Yi spoke coldly, “This Lord happened to see injustice and rescued your clan’s young madam and her two children. It is fine for your Tantai Clan to not know how to be grateful, but you still want to slander this Lord now? Do you want to seize this Lord to your clan’s disciplinary hall? Fine, come then. I would like to see how capable your Tantai Clan is.”

The guards’ expression changed again, and they all didn’t dare to move. Tantai Ya was even more afraid as Jiang Yi’s horrific killing aura was entirely locked onto him. He only had the strength of a low-stage Heaven Monarch; how could he endure it? It was already commendable for him to remain standing instead of kneeling right now.

“Get out!”

Jiang Yi’s eyes flashed as he yelled out, “In one hour, this Lord will go visit your Clan Head. I want to ask him how he teaches his clansmen. You have one hour to gather everyone.”

After Jiang Yi finished speaking, Tantai Ya let out a breath of relief as he noticed that Jiang Yi’s killing aura had gradually subsided. He had also noticed that his palms and back were drenched with sweat. He no longer dared to act recklessly. He took a deep glance at Jiang Yi and beckoned his hand, indicating for the sixteen guards to retreat out of the backyard. Immediately after they exited the backyard, he then said in a cold voice, “Tantai Clan will await for my Lord’s grand arrival.”

Song Zhong stood up with painfully holding onto his chest. Tantai s.h.i.+’s eyes were filled with panic as she was a complete loss. She paused for a moment and said, “My Lord, you better go now. You must not get into a conflict with the Tantai Clan.”

Jiang Yi looked at Tantai s.h.i.+ coldly and said, “What? Are you afraid your father-in-law will kill me?”

“It isn’t like that!”

Tantai s.h.i.+ quickly shook her hand and said, “The Tantai Clan has a rather good relations.h.i.+p with an elder from the Luo Clan. If my Lord is to conduct a slaughter in the city, I am afraid you will not be able to get out of the Heaven State Region. The Heaven Flame City still in the Heaven State Region’s territory, and the Luo Clan will not sit and watch. The Luo Clan possesses four DemiG.o.d Realm experts, and it is said that the Patriarch is even a Seven-Star expert.”

“Seven-Star expert!”

Jiang Yi nodded slightly. Seven-Star experts were very powerful, and Lei Gu was only a Six-Star expert. He didn’t discuss this matter anymore and waved his hand before saying, “Go in and recuperate first. Later on, I will bring the two of you to the Tantai Clan. If this Tantai Clan Head is not reasonable, then all of you don’t have to stay in the Heaven Flame City. I will arrange a place to settle everyone.”

“No, no need!”

Tantai s.h.i.+ spoke stubbornly, “My Lord has done too much for us. This servant has already admitted her fate, and my Lord doesn’t have to bother anymore. My Lord can leave now and go to other cities to ride the Heaven Fate s.h.i.+p there. If my Lord’s matters are delayed because of this servant, I will not be able to redeem my sins even if I am to die ten thousand times.”

“Madam…”

When Song Zhong saw Tantai s.h.i.+’s determined expression, he spoke with an agonized expression, “Madam must not yield! Tantai Ya is a cruel and unscrupulous beast. In order to obtain you, he even colluded with bandits to murder Young Lord. Now, he is even pressing hard at every step. If Madam is to yield, Young Lord would have died in vain…”

“Shut up!”

Tantai s.h.i.+ rebuked with anger and took a deep bow to Jiang Yi and said, “Please leave, my Lord. This servant will work like an ox or a horse in my next life to repay my Lord.”

This time, Tantai s.h.i.+’s speech was very sincere, and it was obviously not a theatrical double act. Jiang Yi let out a deep sigh and said, “Enough, there is no need to say anything else. I have my own plan. Your tiny Tantai Clan is nothing in my eyes. Get in!”

Jiang Yi had made his tone severe for his last two words, and it was unquestionable. Tantai s.h.i.+ clenched her teeth and walked into the room with Song Zhong. No one bothered about the two low-stage Heaven Monarchs guards by the door as they weren’t going to die in any case.

Jiang Yi stood in the courtyard and swept the surroundings with his divine senses. He noticed that Tantai Ya had left behind a few men to hide in the surroundings of the inn as he was afraid Jiang Yi might flee. He sneered and took out a green pearl and poured his essence force in. After the green pearl flashed with radiance, Jiang Yi kept the pearl away.

“My Lord, what orders do you have?”

Soon enough, an old man’s transmitted message echoed in Jiang Yi’s ears. Jiang Yi followed the voice with his divine senses and locked onto the old man. That old man was hiding in a small and dark alley. Jiang Yi transmitted a few sentences to the old man, and the latter nodded and with a flash. He vanished with the small alley.

Jiang Yi walked into the hall and looked at Song Zhong. “Say it then. What is the exact situation? Is Tantai Ya your Young Lord’s brother? Why is there internecine strife?”

Tantai s.h.i.+ wanted to say something but didn’t dare to say anything after Jiang Yi glared at her. Song Zhong consumed a recuperation elixir had recovered a little. He gritted his teeth and said, “Our Clan Head has many wives, and Tantai Ya is birthed by First Madam Hua. The Hua Clan is the no.2 clan in Heaven Flame City while our Young Lord is birthed by a concubine.

“Back then, the late madam was bred from a brothel, and so Young Lord’s status in the clan had always been inferior. He was never favored by the Clan Head. However, Young Lord had extraordinary talents and before his death, he was only 25 years old and had already reached the middle-stage of Heaven Monarch, allowing him to suppress the other young masters with strength…”

After hearing until this point, there wasn’t a need to listen to the story afterward. Jiang Yi shook his hand and asked Song Zhong to recuperate.

Such situations were too common. A talented descendant, without any status and was birthed by a concubine, had naturally become a scourge for Tantai Ya. In addition to a femme fatale like Tantai s.h.i.+, it was no wonder her husband was killed!

Jiang Yi reckoned that Tantai Ya already knew that Jiang Yi had arrived at Heaven Flame City together with Tantai s.h.i.+. Today, he was especially here to catch the adulterers, and it was self-evident that… he wanted to bring Tantai s.h.i.+ to the disciplinary hall to judge her sins. A widow that had committed adultery with an outsider would naturally suffer disdain from the clan’s upper echelon. When that happened, Tantai Ya would be able to play with her as he wished.

An overly beautiful woman would always be the source of calamity!

Jiang Yi let out a slight sigh. This world was simply so cruel and filthy, and it was filled with sc.u.mbags that brought misfortune to the human world. When he saw Tantai s.h.i.+’s resigned expression, he let out another sigh and said, “Alright. Later on, I will bring you to the Tantai Clan and ask for an explanation. Your father-in-law must be a dotard, and he will not wake up unless I beat him up a little.”
