In just 45 minutes later, Jiang Yi’s pearl had lit up. After a transmitted message echoed in his ears, Jiang Yi stood up and spoke indifferently, “Let’s go!”
“My Lord!”
Tantai Shi’s delicate body was shivering because of fear and anxiety while Song Zhong stood up while feeling a little discomfort as well. Jiang Yi gave a faint smile and didn’t say anything as he simply opened up the room door and walked out.
“Madam?”
Song Zhong looked at Tantai Shi with a little panic while the latter bit her lip and looked at Jiang Yi’s straight back and said, “Let’s go, the worst thing that can happen is death!”
Tantai Shi had put everything on the line as she moved her leg and followed Jiang Yi outside. Song Zhong was Tantai Shi’s soul slave and naturally didn’t think about anything else. He held onto his chest and wiped the bloodstain on the corner of his mouth before walking out.
When Jiang Yi walked out of the inn, he let out a cold smile after he scanned with his divine senses. The scouts that Tantai Ya left behind had all gone to work as one of them quickly took out a message token and sent out a message immediately.
Song Zhong took out a war chariot, and after Tantai Shi and Jiang Yi boarded it, he steered the war chariot and slowly rode it to the city lord residence which was in the north of the plaza. Along the way, they could see countless guards paying attention to this war chariot as they had all received that news and were waiting for Jiang Yi to enter the city lord residence.
The closer they got to the city lord residence, the slower the speed of the war chariot. Song Zhong had gotten so nervous that he was slightly shaking. He could see countless experts gathered outside the city lord residence, and there were at least thousands of Heaven Monarchs.
Tantai Shi had also quickly noticed the experts that were gathered in front of the city lord residence, and her charming face was flushed with redness. Her jade hands grabbed her dress tightly while her breathing got hurried. She was ready to put everything on the line today, and she wasn’t afraid of death. However, if she died, her children would definitely suffer.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The Tantai Clan seemed to have given the order as countless Heaven Monarchs gathered at the plaza. It wasn’t only the Tantai Clan; the city’s various major and minor clans’ experts were also gathered. The pedestrians on the plaza sensed something was wrong and had all quickly withdrew from the plaza. They were all hiding on the streets, alleys, and the inns while waiting to watch a show.
Jiang Yi had a calm expression as though he didn’t see the near ten thousand Heaven Monarchs that were gathered in front of the Tantai Clan. In fact… if he truly wanted to kill, these ten thousand individuals weren’t enough for him to kill. What kind of grand occasion had he not experienced before?
The war chariot stopped three kilometers away from the city lord residence, and the gates had slowly opened up. The Heaven Monarchs blocking the gates automatically stood on both sides while two awe-inspiring elders and a malicious youth walked out. The youth was Tantai Ya.
The one in black was the clan’s battle hall elder, Tantai Wudi; he is the one that strongly supports Tantai Ya to become the Young Clan Head. The one in the moon white robe was the Hua Clan Head, and he is also Tantai Ya’s maternal grandfather!”
Tantai Shi’s eyes revealed a trace of hatred as he pointed at the duo and whispered to Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi stood up, alighted the war chariot slowly, and took two steps forward. He stood alone in the spacious plaza and swept a glance at the Tantai Clan’s ten thousand experts. He sneered and said, “Putting up such a big formation to welcome this Lord? Is your Tantai Clan only capable of this?”
Tantai Ya didn’t dare to speak. It was the black-robed Tantai Clan’s battle hall elder who spoke in a deep voice, “May I know who are you? Why are you causing a disturbance in the Heaven Flame City? What is the meaning of this?”
“Who are you?”
Jiang Yi shot an indifferent glance at the elder and spoke coldly, “You are not qualified to speak with me. Get your Clan Head out here!”
“Presumptuous!”
“Audacious!”
“You must be tired of living!”
The countless expressions changed as they all burst out yelling. Tantai Ya pointed at Jiang Yi and Tantai Shi who was inside the war chariot and yelled out, “You bastard. You fooled around with this slut and murdered my Young Brother. Now you dare humiliate my Third Uncle? Men, take down this bastard!”
Buzz!
Jiang Yi’s ancient divine essence ring lit up as the Black Iron Heavy Sword appeared while a black armor appeared on his body. His aura presence change instantly turned as powerful as a dragon which enveloped the entire plaza and the ten thousand Heaven Monarchs. His sword pointed at Tantai Ya from far away and said, “You little scum, I dare you to speak one more word. Do you believe this Lord will extinguish you?”
“Pseudo-divine artifacts? Peak stage of the Heaven Monarch Realm!”
Countless eyes revealed shock while many of the Heaven Monarchs unconsciously took two steps back. The Tantai Clan’s battle hall elder and the Hua Clan Head looked at each other with grave expressions. They might not be apprehensive against a single peak-stage Heaven Monarch, but if it was one with two pseudo-divine artifacts, then they had to treat this seriously.
Swish! Swish!
Four shadows rushed out like goshawks from within the Tantai Clan’s courtyard and landed firmly outside the Tantai Clan’s gate. These four gray-robed elders had powerful aura presences and were at the peak stage of the Heaven Monarch Realm. The four of them didn’t say anything after coming out and simply stood beside Tantai Wudi.
“My Lord, my father-in-law is not in the city. He went to Heaven State City!”
Tantai Shi transmitted message echoed in Jiang Yi’s ears, and he suddenly realized something. However, he didn’t say anything and glared at the experts in front of him.
“I am Tantai Wudi!”
The Tantai Clan’s elder cupped his hands and said, “My Clan Head is not in the city and had gone to visit the Region Lord in Heaven State City. If you have anything to say, you can speak with this Elder. If you want to provoke the Tantai Clan, we will risk everything in a fight!”
Tantai Wudi’s manner of speech was still rather mild as Jiang Yi had two pseudo-divine artifacts after all while none of their peak-stage Heaven Monarchs had a single one. Just with Jiang Yi’s pseudo-divine battle armor, everyone would have a hard time to kill him. It was why Tantai Wudi didn’t dare to speak too aggressively, but he had also pointed out the Tantai Clan’s relationship with the Region Lord and also the Tantai Clan’s attitude.
“Song Zhong, back away!”
Jiang Yi waved his hand while Song Zhong’s eyes flashed with a trace of hesitation. He turned back to look at Tantai Shi while the latter nodded. Song Zhong then slowly steered the war chariot backward. Jiang Yi swung his heavy sword and pointed it at Tantai Wudi. “I am here today to ask an explanation from your Tantai Clan. If you are not going to provide one, then we shall fight!”
Buzz!
Jiang Yi’s heavy sword and his battle armor had lit up, and a powerful killing aura enveloped the entire plaza, frightening and causing the weaker martial artists to back off. No one doubted Jiang Yi’s resolution, and it was possible that a single unsatisfied statement might cause the battle to erupt.
“May I know your name? Why are you so unreasonable?”
Tantai Wudi and the others’ eyes were radiating with a chilling light. The clan’s strongest Clan Head wasn’t around, and they naturally didn’t dare to battle without permission. Jiang Yi behaved so arrogantly, and his current appearance was no longer that black strong man but a clean-looking youth, which had a huge disparity.
He reached the peak stage of the Heaven Monarch Realm at such age, and he even had two pseudo-divine artifacts. It was naturally for Tantai Wudi to be a little apprehensive. What if Jiang Yi was a descendant from a major clan?
Thus, he paused for a moment and continued asking, “Might I ask what explanation do you want? Our Tantai Clan didn’t offend you, right? Instead, you are the one that is implicated with our clan’s woman?”
“You and your mother’s bullsh*t!”
Jiang Yi immediately burst out with a swear as he cursed loudly. “I do not care about your clan’s Tantai Ya that had brutally murdered his own brother and attempted to dominate his younger sister-in-law. I was kind-hearted enough to rescue your clansmen and even personally escorted them back, and your clan’s bastard want to slander me for adultery? If you don’t execute Tantai Ya today, then I will have to do it myself.”
“Wa!”
Jiang Yi’s statement had caused an uproar. Tantai Ya was the no.1 young master in the city, and his reputation had always been bad. He oppressed everyone and had always been a tyrant in the city. Right now, he even murdered his own brother and attempted to dominate his younger sister-in-law?
“Slander! You—this dog bastard is slandering me!” When Tantai Ya saw the countless eyes looking over, he instantly roared out as he was utterly exasperated.
“Slander?”
Jiang Yi sneered and said, “Shall we do the Mystic Thearch Blood Vow together? If I have committed adultery with your younger sister-in-law, I will die a miserable death. If you didn’t murder your brother and attempt to dominate your younger sister-in-law, I shall also die a miserable death. How about it?”
