When Jiang Yi went into the Flood Elephant City, he changed his appearance again and left the city immediately. He got on a small merchant association’s Heaven Fate Ship and sailed to the nearby Flood City. After altering his look again in the Flood City, he went to the Flood Sun City next to the Flood Martial City on a Heaven Fate Ship again.
Flood Sun City was only 5,000 kilometers away from the Flood Martial City. It would only take Jiang Yi half a day to fly there. Flood Sun City was a medium-sized city. He already made an appointment with the Shadow Emperor’s men to meet in this place. The Shadow Emperor’s men were able to use the Teleportation Formation and would be much faster than him. He found a quiet little inn and took out the green pearl. One hour later, a woman came to his doorstep.
“My Lord, do you need me to serve you?”
Jiang Yi heard a soft voice and detected a beautiful woman in green. She looked very experienced. He answered indifferently, “No need. You are too low-class for me.”
“Ke-Ke!”
The woman in green was not angered. She spoke again in a smile, “My Lord, what’s the use of good looks? Men are looking for the best service. My skills are the best in the Flood Sun City and only require 100 thousand celestial stones a night. I am good and cheap.”
“Really? Then come in and have a try!”
Jiang Yi curled his lips and wondered why the code was so awkward, which made them look like a prostitute and a lustful man. Of course, prostitutes often invited themselves to big inns like this. It appeared to be safer and more inconspicuous in this way.
The woman in green walked in, wriggling. After Jiang Yi turned on the restrictions in the room, he asked in a low voice, “Where is Wu Ni?”
“My lord, he just left the Buddha Region and is already in the North Snow Region.”
The seductive look disappeared from the woman’s face. She said solemnly, “However, my Lord, I just received the news this morning. This time, Wu Ni boosted his reputation and became the no.1 Young Master. His sister, Wu Ying’er, wife of the City Lord of the Flood Martial City is very pleased and sent 10,000 troops to welcome him on the region border. Right now, Wu Ni should be meeting the troops…”
“Ten thousand troops?”
Jiang Yi’s face darkened, Wu Ni previously only had about 1,000 men by his side. Right now, there were 10,000 more people, which brought more troubles. Never did he expect that Wu Ni’s sister adored him so much. Cold light shimmered in Jiang Yi’s eyes, he asked, “How many strong martial experts are among the 10,000 men?”
“Not many.”
The woman in green said in a deep voice, “According to our sources, these 10,000 men should all be Heaven Monarch Realm martial experts. There are only one hundred peak-stage Heaven Monarchs and one or two four-star martial experts. With your strength, in fact, these 10,000 men should be a problem.”
“That’s true…”
Jiang Yi nodded. Once he turned on the Thunder Fire Divine Shield, released the Divine Sound Heaven Skill, and let out the Fury of Thunder, he would easily kill most of the 10,000 low-grade Heaven Monarchs. There were merely one or two four-star martial artists. Wu Ni previously had ten four-star guards. There was not a lot in total.
“The number will not a problem.”
The young lady in green signed softly and said, “When there are more people, they will be on higher alert. I am afraid that there will be patrols several hundred miles around Wu Ni. It may be very difficult for you to attack him by surprise… unless by force. Oh… Lord Qi told us that if you are sure to do it, he will come here to help you. As for the Qi Clansmen, they will all retreat to Sin Island.”
“Qi Tianchen? No way!”
Jiang Yi waved his hands firmly and vetoed this proposition. Qi Tianchen was a Demigod. With him, it was almost certain that they would easily take down Wu Ni. However, once he was involved, all the Qi Clansmen would be annihilated.
Retreating to Sin Island?
It was not easy for hundreds of thousands of Qi Clansmen. The Region Lord of the Heaven State Region would probably be alerted as soon as they set off. Once the actions of Qi Tianchen were exposed, the Qi Clansmen would never make it to Sin Island.
“Taking him down by force?”
Jiang Yi was worried. It was not as easy as it sounded. One round of attack by over 10,000 men including so many peak-stage Heaven Monarchs would probably kill him. Even the Astral Winds Divine Shield or the Thunder Fire Divine Shield couldn’t stop them.
“Nope, I can’t attack by force. With so many four and five star martial experts, who knows what kind of special dao patterns they have?”
He shook his head and frowned. Death was not horrifying. The terrible thing was to die in vain. He was not strong enough to sweep a bunch of peak-stage Heaven Monarchs. Divine Sound Heaven Skill was very powerful, but its effect would be weakened by the long distance. If he couldn’t get closer than three kilometers away from the four-or five-star martial experts, he would never be able to have any impact on them. He couldn’t release the astral winds for the attack as well.
“I must find a way to go closer!”
Jiang Yi said in a deep voice, “If I can’t get on Wu Ni’s Heaven Fate Ship or take him down, I will have to die!”
The woman in green was silent, the same for Jiang Yi. They lowered their heads and thought for a while. Neither thought of any good plans. Five minutes later, the eyes of the woman in green suddenly sparkled, she said, “My Lord, why don’t we send people to catch an important person in the Flood Martial City? Then, you will take that person, sneak onto Wu Ni’s Heaven Fate Ship, and suddenly take him down.”
“En? Not bad!”
Jiang Yi contemplated for a while and found it a feasible plan. After Wu Ni entered the North Snow Region—being protected by the army, he would certainly lower his defense. His big sister was married to the Flood Martial City Lord. If Jiang Yi could make an Elder into his soul slave and manipulate him to bring him to the Heaven Fate Ship for him to strike all of a sudden. The enemy would surely be caught off guard.
“Something isn’t right…”
Jiang Yi soon shook his head and said, “Ji Tingyu will be on the boat. This woman is too clever. If anything strange happens in the Flood Martial City, she will certainly be suspicious after getting the news. I may be tricked by her instead.”
Ji Tingyu was such a terrible person. The thought of her gave Jiang Yi shudders on his back. A big person missing in the Flood Martial City would certainly alert people in the Flood Martial City. When this person suddenly showed up near the Heaven Fate Ship, Ji Tingyu—with her unusual perception—would see through the trick right away. When she orders to attack, Jiang Yi would lose his life in vain.
“That’s true…”
The woman in green nodded. Unimportant people couldn’t get close to the Heaven Fate Ship, and missing big shots would cause suspicion. It might sabotage their plan instead.
“Got it!”
The women in green’s idea provided a good train of thought for Jiang Yi. She didn’t know that he had a very special divine skill—Mirage Divine Ability!
He couldn’t catch any important person, but he could imitate his look and soul spirit aura. Even Jiang Xiaonu mistook him for Qian Wanguan last time. Thus, he was absolutely capable of impersonating any big shot in the Flood Martial City. Then, he would show up near the Heaven Fate Ship and sneak in with ease.
“It’s doable. Let’s do this!”
He thought it over and decided on the plan. He quickly told the green woman, “You find the portraits and information of the important people in the Flood Martial City. I am in a hurry.”
The green woman didn’t know what Jiang Yi was up to but obediently went out. Two hours later, she returned with countless materials. Jiang Yi spent the whole night reading them and decided on the person at dawn.
He slapped on a portrait heavily and said with conviction, “He is it! He is the old servant of Wu Ying’er and the Wu Clan’s man. Wu Ni is very familiar with him. I can easily sneak into the Heaven Fate Ship by pretending to be him! Humph, Wu Ni, I hope you will cooperate with me and help me get Ruoxue back. Otherwise, I don’t mind sending you to see the Netherworld Thearch.”
