Castrated goods!

This was a very vicious term; furthermore, the opposition was the most popular prince in Heaven Mystics Kingdom right now. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have sent him over. Jiang Yi’s statement was a loud slap on Yun Lu’s face.

“Wow!”

As expected, there was an uproar in the grand hall. Especially the politicians from the Great Xia Kingdom who couldn’t hold back their laughs. A vile individual had to be dealt with by another vile individual. A prince of the Heaven Mystics Kingdom was someone they didn’t dare to deal with, but Jiang Yi could do it without any restraint.

Why?

All the Vajra Realm martial experts had an agreement with the Demon Empress that they would not make a move on Jiang Yi within three years. Moreover, Jiang Yi’s strength was unrivaled in the Soul Travel Realm. He had the Massacre Intent and the Soul-Devouring Shifting Art, and so he wasn’t afraid of being surrounded. If Jiang Yi was irritated and actually slaughtered Yun Lu, the Vajra Realm martial experts from Heaven Mystics Kingdom wouldn’t interfere; their army wouldn’t dare to move out either. Yun Lu would just die in vain.

Xia Tian understood this point, and so he immediately shrunk his body once Jiang Yi appeared and didn’t dare to go against him. Yun Lu obviously didn’t understand this logic. Perhaps it was because of Yun He’s death, which made him resentful towards Jiang Yi. Coupled with the fact that he was confident of his own status, he assumed that Jiang Yi wouldn’t dare to touch him.

After Jiang Yi cursed at him, he was instantly indignant and cursed back. “Jiang Yi, what are you? Aren’t you just relying on the Demon Empress? Aren’t you ashamed to actually collude with a demonic beast as a human? Hurhur, even if the Demon Empress is protecting you, it will only be for three years. Three years later, this prince will see how you die!”

“Hahaha!”

Jiang Yi laughed loudly while facing the sky and his essence force surged out violently. His body turned into an afterimage as he burst towards Yun Lu. His Massacre Intent released a surge of killing aura, which immobilized Yun Lu. Even the two secret guards who were at the eighth stage of the Soul Travel Realm were immobilized. He effortlessly extended his hand and clenched Yun Lu’s neck, lifting and suspending him in mid-air before Jiang Yi withdrew his killing aura.

Jiang Yi lifted his head and looked at Yun Lu whose eyes were filled with fear as he sneered and said, “I, Jiang Yi, am nothing, but I can clutch you to death effortlessly! Don’t talk to me about relying on others. Shave off your prince’s identity, what are you? Taking ten thousand steps back, so what if you are a prince? Back then, I dared to kill your brother; now I dare to kill you, too. Do you want to try it?”

Jiang Yi finished his last words. He didn’t release the Massacre Intent, but his eyes were icy cold like a wild beast, which caused Prince Yun Lu’s body to turn cold. He could smell the presence of death and didn’t dare to say a single word.

Gulp! Gulp!

Glory Palace Hall’s atmosphere was currently at the extremity. The officials from the Great Xia Kingdom didn’t even dare to breathe out as they were afraid Jiang Yi might really kill Yun Lu. If that happened, the King of Heaven Mystics Kingdom would definitely be infuriated; and they might have to meet on the battlefield again.

Xia Tian’s body backed off a few more steps to the side as he was afraid Jiang Yi might go insane and kill him, too. The Soul Travel Realm secret guards from the Heaven Mystics Kingdom had their hearts in their throats. Jiang Yi was right beside them, but they didn’t dare to move recklessly. They were afraid if they did something wrong, Yun Lu might just die.

Su Ruoxue was seated quietly above while her beautiful eyes looked at Jiang Yi straight back with infatuation and love. As the Queen of the Great Xia Kingdom, she didn’t have any intention to stop Jiang Yi. In her eyes, Jiang Yi was heaven; and as long as Jiang Yi wanted to do something, she would not interfere and just silently support him.

“Amitabha!”

Little monk Huigeng suddenly announced the name of a Buddha and broke the silence in the grand hall. “Benefactor Jiang, lay down the butcher’s knife; and you shall immediately become a Buddha 1 ! Killing will never solve a problem. Everything should be responded with peace.”

Bang!

Jiang Yi used a single hand and swung hard, throwing Yun Lu out of the Glory Palace Hall. He then faced Xia Tian and the others with the side of his face and spoke in a grave and stern voice, “Today is Ruoxue’s ascension day. We welcome you if you are sincerely here to give your blessings. If you are here to look for trouble, don’t blame this Jiang nobody for being impolite! If you want to leave, you may leave now.”

Swish!

The two Heaven Mystics Kingdom’s Soul Travel Realm secret guards immediately flew out to help Yun Lu stand but were pushed away by him. He looked at Jiang Yi with an expression of resentment and said, “Good, good, good! Jiang Yi, this prince shall personally witness how you are going to die three years later. If there is an opportunity, this prince will personally slice you up into pieces.”

Prince Yun Lu walked off in a rage. Xia Tian and the two generals from the Northern Mang and Northern Liang Kingdoms exchanged eye contacts, giving a casual bow with cupped hands and left with their men. The Azure Dragon Empire’s General Long and the Saint Spirit Kingdom’s General He gave an awkward smile to Jiang Yi and left. The Vice Principals from the Azure Dragon College and Centaurea College hesitated for a moment before they took their leave, too. They were originally here to enjoy a show, but seeing how Jiang Yi appear with power, they left because there wasn’t going to be any more show left.

Since the hostile oppositions had left, the Glory Palace Hall regained its peace. Jiang Yi smiled and bowed with cupped hands towards Huigeng, Principal Qi, and the others and immediately left from the back of the palace hall. Everyone was in doubt as to why Jiang Yi actually left when the new ruler was about to ascend to the throne? Even though no one else dared to find trouble, it was still inappropriate for him to be absent in such an occasion right as the Regent of the Great Xia Kingdom, right?

Su Ruoxue didn’t mind and nodded to the official from the Ministry of Rites. That official immediately carried on the ascension ceremony, praying to the heavens, making rounds in the city, and accepting the blessings from the various influential forces among other matters.

…

The reason why Jiang Yi left so quickly naturally wasn’t that he was arrogant and willful. It wasn’t because he found it troublesome to attend the ascension ceremony, but because there were two guests!

After he exited from the underground Divine Vein, the old grandma explained to him about the guests that came today, who was making troubles and their identities. That’s how he knew the Yun Lu was Yun He’s younger brother and was currently the most popular prince in Heaven Mystics Kingdom.

At the same time…!

The old grandma gave him some very surprising news. Those two guests had arrived quietly in the Great Xia Kingdom today and were in the Drifting Snow Palace.

Jiang Yi quickly arrived at the Drifting Snow Palace, which was surrounded by soldiers. When they saw Jiang Yi walking over in large strides, the soldiers quickly knelt and greeted, “Greetings to the Regent!”

“Rise!”

Jiang Yi waved his hand and walked in with huge strides. Before he even entered the main doors, a surprised voice echoed from inside, “Boss!”

Swish!

There was this fat and chubby meatball which rolled out and hugged Jiang Yi while muttering non-stop. “Haha! Boss! I miss you so much!”

Jiang Yi grinned and laughed as he looked at that chubby and round face. He had this abnormally familiar feeling as Jiang Yi reached to slap on Qian Wanguan’s head. “Wanguan, why do you look even fatter now?”

Qian Wanguan let go of Jiang Yi and laughed incessantly while Jiang Yi looked over at the other youth on the other side of the palace. This man had bronze-colored skin and was absolutely dashing. The two of them looked at each other and reached out to punch each other in the chest before they started to laugh heartily.

“Brother Wushuang, long time, no see. You actually made it here, too? I am very surprised!”

Jiang Yi grinned and laughed while he informed Jiang Xiaonu by the side, “Xiaonu, go get someone to make arrangements. Later on, I am going to have a good drink with Brother Wushuang and Wanguan.”

“Okay, Young Master!” Jiang Xiaonu went over to ask the eunuchs and palace maids to prepare some wine and dishes. When the little fox—who was on Jiang Xiaonu’s shoulder—heard that there was going to be a great feast, it began to have a craving.

“Ruoxue ascending to the throne. How can we not come to give our congratulations on such a big event?”

Zhan Wushuang laughed and sized up Jiang Yi closely, sobbing as he spoke, “Jiang Yi, you are indeed a man of talents. I haven’t seen you in over a year, but you made such a huge sensation. You are even a Regent now. Your wedding with Ruoxue is going to be held soon, right?”

Jiang Yi rubbed his nose and laughed embarrassedly. He muttered for a moment before replying, “It is all up to Ruoxue. That’s right… Brother Wushuang, how are matters with you and Princess Yun Fei? I did see Yun Fei back at the royal palace, but I was in a hurry to return to Mt. Spirit Beast, and so I just left.”

“Sigh…”

As soon as they were on this topic, Zhan Wushuang’s expression instantly turned ashen. Qian Wanguan shook his head and sighed non-stop while Zhan Wushuang muttered for a long time. He then suddenly gritted his teeth and said, “Jiang Yi, can you do me a favor?”

Jiang Yi’s expression turned serious as he spoke in a grave manner, “Brother Wushuang, please ask. As long as I can do it, I will not refuse!”

“Alright!”

Zhan Wushuang yelled out, while his body surged with killing aura as he gritted his teeth and said, “Please help me kill Yun Lu together!”
