Xia Tingwei had no culprit to hand over as General Taishi had not found Liu Yu yet. Even if they found Liu Yu, Xia Tingwei wouldn’t hand him over either.

What blasphemy was this?!

What was Jiang Yi again? Why did Xia Tingwei have to hand the culprit over just because Jiang Yi demanded for it? Wouldn’t mean that the Divine Martial Kingdom was fearful of Jiang Yi? As the no.1 vassal kingdom on the Stellarsky Continent—if this matter was to spread out, the Divine Martial Kingdom would be the joke of the world. All the prestige that he, Xia Tingwei, had accumulated over many years would be lowered to the bottom.

Jiang Yi had anger in his heart, and so he was speaking in a rash manner. Xia Tingwei simply didn’t respond by not answering his questions; he didn’t have any explanation as well. He sneered and said, “Hahaha, one can always give another a sin and hang them for it, right? Jiang Yi, how dare you behave so rudely and unreasonably? Come on then! If you want a fight, we will respond to your desire. I would like to see which of my Divine Martial Kingdom’s descendants would fear a disloyal, heartless, unjust, and unfilial son.”

“Disloyal, heartless, unjust, and unfilial? Hahaha!”

Jiang Yi was completely infuriated and didn’t wish to continue this nonsense. If Xia Tingwei didn’t snatch the Soul-Subduing Herb that belonged to him, would he be disloyal? If he didn’t have a father like Jiang Bieli, would he be unfilial? ‘Heartless’ and ‘unjust’ were even more ridiculous. He immediately gave the order: “Demon king! Start the slaughter! As long as it isn’t a commoner, anyone that dares to attack you shall be killed without hesitation!”

As Jiang Yi spoke, he instant-shifted to a spacious land three kilometers outside of the city. The Yazi Beast roared towards the sky while its violent aura presence was emitted from its body, causing a tremor in the air. The flame-like horn on its head radiated with brilliance as it shot out a light pillar. The target was obviously Xia Tingwei.

The Yazi Beast didn’t have any other choice either. The Witch God had left it for Jiang Yi, and before his soul vanished, he told the Yazi Beast that if it wanted to break through to the demon thearch in this lifetime, it had to devote itself to Jiang Yi and listen to his orders.

The demon king had no doubts towards the Witch God. It originally despised Jiang Yi, but after staying along his side for a period of time, it had already submitted itself. Let alone the mysterious identity of Jiang Xiaonu, just the performance by Jiang Yi in the underground world was enough for the Yazi Beast to pledge its loyalty.

“Your Majesty, retreat quickly!”

Old Eunuch Lin’s crooked back suddenly straightened while his body exploded with horrific aura presence. Launching himself off the black dragon’s back, he jumped off with such a great force while kicking the black dragon backward, allowing Xia Tingwei to dodge that dreadful white light pillar.

Tsk-Tsk!

The white light pillar penetrated the sky and finally hit one of the tall palace halls in the royal palace. There was a loud explosion while the palace was disintegrated. Shards of rocks burst in all direction while a mushroom cloud rose into the sky. It felt as though the entire royal palace was shaking.

“Beast, if you have the guts, let’s fight up in the sky!”

Eunuch Lin’s intense killing intent was locked onto the Yazi Beast while he glared with provocative eyes. The Yazi Beast instinctively wanted to rush at Xia Tingwei, but it was provoked by those eyes. Furthermore, it didn’t want to kill any innocent commoners, or else it might incur the wrath of the human race. If they were to unite their strengths to pursue the Yazi Beast, it would ultimately die a miserable death. The Yazi Beast turned around to look at Jiang Yi before it roared and launched itself towards Old Eunuch Lin who was in the sky.

“Jek-Jek. Beast, you might be a peak-grade demon king, but you cannot assimilate a human form yet. Hence, you are just a wild beast. This eunuch will make sure you will never be able to return to your master!”

Old Eunuch Lin let out an evil laugh and shot up into the sky; he quickly turned into a black spot as he flew 10,000 miles high. The Yazi Beast body turned into an active ball of flame as it roared with rage and gave chase.

“Take that traitor’s head down for this King!”

Xia Tingwei shouted out while all the black dragons by his side darted over. All these black dragons were peak-grade tier-three demonic beasts, and all the martial artists on them were peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts. They fanned out and surrounded Jiang Yi; they then shot their essence force attacks from far away.

Xia Tingwei actually put himself in danger. I am already invincible against enemies below the peak-stage Soul Travel Realm. Isn’t he afraid I would instant-shift over and kill him?

Jiang Yi didn’t make his move immediately and flickered his eyes with suspicion instead. That old eunuch wasn’t comparable to the demon king in strength, but he actually invited it for a fight? As a eunuch, wasn’t he supposed to be staying guard by Xia Tingwei’s side?

Where could Jiang Bieli be now?

Was he not in Monarch City? Or was he laying below in ambush, preparing to kill Jiang Yi in one strike?

Tsk-Tsk!

The essence force attacks were all blasted over, and Jiang Yi didn’t have any time to consider anymore. The battle had already begun, and he had no way to retreat. He had to kill Xia Tingwei and Old Eunuch Lin today.

As for the consequence… to hell with them!

Jiang Yi’s eyes turned cold as his heart had this unprecedented determination. Even if Jiang Bieli came and dared to make a move, Jiang Yi would definitely fight back. If Jiang Bieli didn’t acknowledge him as a son, why should he acknowledge Jiang Bieli as a father?

Buzz!

His body vanished as he instant-shifted to the sky. His eyes turned blood red while the dreadful murderous aura poured out, suppressing the black dragons and the Soul Travel Realm experts in the sky.

“Wind Myriad!”

He grunted and immediately used his strongest attack. He never fought like others, where they would exchange moves using their weakest attack first before using their strongest attack. That was an idiot’s way of fighting. When true experts fought, it was always settled in a single move; when would they allow someone to have the time and slowly make all their moves?

Tsk-Tsk!

Tens of thousands of small fire dragons whizzed over. Putting aside that the two black dragons and the Soul Travel Realm experts on them were immobilized—even if they weren’t immobilized, it was going to be tough for them to resist such a violent attack, right? This was a mid-grade dao pattern attack!

Pong! Pong! Pong!

There were two giant fireworks in the air as two clouds of blood mist burst out. The two giant black dragons and the dozens of peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts were all turned into mince. The sky was raining with blood, severed limbs, internal organs. It was truly unforgettable and horrific sight, one that would make anyone nauseous with a single glance.

Ss, ss…

Everyone was shocked, and Xia Tingwei—who was currently a distance away—had a change in expression. He immediately steered the black dragon and flew back towards the royal palace. All the surrounding martial artists were desperately trying to shoot their essence force attack at Jiang Yi, using various dao pattern attacks, trying to bring him down and stop him.

“Trying to flee?!”

Jiang Yi sneered. Since he had to constantly dodge the attacks that were launched at him, he might as well instant-shift forward and appear meters in front of Xia Tingwei.

After being enveloped by the Massacre Intent, the black dragon couldn’t move anymore as it paused in mid-air with fearful eyes. Xia Tingwei’s eyes were also filled with fear and seemed to be suffocating!

“Your Majesty…”

Countless experts burst out with shouts as they frantically tried to fly over here. At the same time, there was a massive aura presence that rose up while a black shadow burst over. Jiang Yi’s ears echoed with a transmitted message: “Be careful!”

Jiang Bieli finally appeared!

Be careful? Who was he asking to be careful?

Jiang Yi was startled, but his movements didn’t hesitate. His Fire Dragon Sword continued to cleave at the front, as he shot out tens of thousands of small fire dragons towards Xia Tingwei.

Buzz!

Something confusing happened. Xia Tingwei actually smiled at this moment while the air beside him suddenly vibrated and seemingly distorted. In the next second, Xia Tingwei’s body actually vanished from his original position.

Instant-shift? Spatial dao pattern? How… how can Xia Tingwei move under his Massacre Intent? Could Xia Tingwei have already reached the Vajra Realm?

Jiang Yi realized it at this moment. Jiang Bieli’s ‘be careful’ wasn’t for no reason as he was reminding Jiang Yi to beware of Xia Tingwei.

His Massacre Intent could effortlessly suppress a peak-stage Soul Travel Realm expert, but Xia Tingwei could still move? He even vanished from mid-air, meaning that he must have comprehended a profound type of spatial dao pattern. In other words… Xia Tingwei had definitely broken through to the Vajra Realm!

No wonder that Old Eunuch Lin wasn’t concerned about leaving behind Xia Tingwei. Inviting the Yazi Beast for battle was actually to let Jiang Yi attack Xia Tingwei? When Xia Tingwei revealed a fearful look, it was actually a pretense to fled as he was waiting for Jiang Yi to come over?

Go…

Jiang Yi’s body lit up with white light as he immediately instant-shifted!

Right at this moment, there was a large palm that appeared above his head that came out of nowhere. While this invisible palm slammed down, the air was shaking. Not only was Jiang Yi unable to instant-shift, but the entire space was trembling as Jiang Yi was also unable to stabilize his body. It was as though one was on a small boat in the midst of giant waves.

“Hahaha, Jiang Yi, accept your death!”

Xia Tingwei’s body swiftly appeared from the void while his palm expanded in the eyes of Jiang Yi. That palm was radiating with light and had horrific aura presence. It felt as though a giant mountain was pressing down and about to crush Jiang Yi into a pulp!
