Luo Qingyan did not let Jiang Yi down. She had calculated everything accurately; she had even guessed the intentions of the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings without a fault.
The seventeen Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings had refrained from attacking until this moment because they were not confident at all. Once they attacked, they would fall out completely with the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan. If they could not catch Jiang Yi alive, the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan would not have any proof; and their attacks on the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan would come back to haunt them. The Blue Eagle Prefecture would pursue this matter and bring trouble to their clan.
Furthermore, with Luo Fu already on the way, as long as they waited till his arrival; they would easily be able to take down Jiang Yi. At this moment, no one dared to act rashly and could only follow along uneasily. After entering the Drizzling Mountain Ridges, everyone grew even more worried. The terrain here was very strange; with the overall situation unclear, no one knew what would happen.
Now that the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings had suddenly attacked, the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan members were stunned, assuming that the former had long set an ambush here. Also, as Gu Mu had suddenly launched a sneak attack from another direction, everyone was in a state of panic. Since they were now in a state of disarray, how could they give their all and battle?
“Evade!”
The strongest among the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan was an upper-tier God King who shouted at this moment. He decided to hide from this round of attacks first, and after getting a better grasp of the situation, he would then decide whether to fight or flee. Furthermore, as the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings were surrounding them in a fan-like formation while Gu Mu attacked from behind, there were enemies all around them now. Many Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings instinctively decided to head into the mountain ridges below to escape there.
The mountain ridges were filled with smoke and mist; they have also scanned the ridges before and found no signs of trouble. If they hid there, it would be very hard for the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan to lock-on to them. Hence, many decided to fly down at this moment to hide.
“Alright!”
Jiang Yi’s soul spirit became red-hot as the exciting huge battle also made ardor and zeal course through his blood. There were at least fifteen God Kings that were rushing down near here; victory or defeat this time all depended on him.
“Fifty thousand feet, thirty thousand feet… ten thousand feet… five thousand feet… attack!”
Jiang Yi leaped up from the stone that he was sitting on as it immediately broke as his body shot into the sky. As he just started to fly, he immediately roared, “Dogs from the Earth Emanations Pavilion, you guys dare to attack my brothers from the Battle God Pavilion? Die!”
“Uh?”
The fleeing God Kings that were heading downwards were initially very panicky. They did not expect someone to appear from below. That person was also wearing battle armor of the Battle God Pavilion? Previously when they had scanned this area, they had not found this person; could this man be an absolute formidable martial artist?
Jiang Yi’s words made everyone feel like there was a sliver of hope. If Jiang Yi was really a formidable martial artist from the Battle God Pavilion, then the tables would have turned for this battle. However, there were two God Kings who were a little suspicious. After all, the timing of Jiang Yi’s appearance was too coincidental; the duo kept their guard up.
It was precisely their carefulness that saved their lives.
Jiang Yi’s hands lit up with blue, red, and gold light as two balls of Merged Flames appeared from his hands. The moment they appeared, the rainwater falling in the area all evaporated; even the mist beneath them had been dissipated by the heat from the flames while numerous patches of vegetation instantly turned into ash even without burning up. The power from the three types of burning flames merged together was terrifying.
“This is an enemy!”
“Kill! No, wait… run!”
“Ahhh!”
If at this moment, the God Kings still could not react to the situation; they were really not living up to their titles. The duo that had been suspicious of Jiang Yi immediately escaped far away; everyone else, however, was slower by a beat.
When that terrifying high heat enveloped them, regardless of whether they wanted to attack or run, it was already too late. The temperature was so high that in a moment, the skin on their bodies had been burned. Many low-level God Kings even had their entire bodies burned in a matter of seconds. Immense pain coursed through their bodies. No one could flee or attack anymore.
Tsk! Tsk!
Still, two of them managed to release their attacks. However, one of them had his veins burned and his heavenly powers were disrupted. He only managed to release half of his attack before it was stopped. The other’s heavenly powers were also disrupted, and he could not concentrate enough to unleash his nomological mystical abilities. This man’s eyes also grew crazed as he desperately sent out a heavenly power attack to try and kill Jiang Yi.
Boom!
Jiang Yi’s body was sent flying heavily; his chest had also been dented in as he spat out fresh blood. He had almost fainted; the medial-grade divine artifact battle armor and the China Root Elixir had saved his life.
“I succeeded!”
Jiang Yi saw two balls of flames reaching the group of God Kings as many of them were sent tumbling in mid-air. Although not one was burned alive, at least thirteen of them had been heavily injured. Also, with the attacks from ten Earth Emanations God Kings and Gu Mu soaring forward, many of them died on the spot. Jiang Yi managed a comforting smile at this sight.
The plan was perfect. Luo Qingyan’s trap had been flawless. The seventeen God Kings were going to die.
Swish!
Gu Mu attacked twice and then immediately flew towards Jiang Yi. He did not dare to continue with the assault; what if Jiang Yi was killed by someone from either the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan or the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan? He and Luo Qingyan would then die alongside Jiang Yi.
“This lad’s burning flames are too insane!”
Many God Kings looked at the burned to crisp corpses as they were secretly stunned. Initially, some of them had wanted to take the opportunity to kill Jiang Yi; now, no one dared to do anything foolish. Gu Mu had already reached Jiang Yi’s side, and he did not care about the battle anymore, immediately bringing Jiang Yi into the Divine Boat in the distance. Everyone thought about the order that Luo Qingyan had given, and ultimately, no one acted rashly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
On the other hand, there were three Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings who had just been lightly wounded. Luo Shui and the others did not have the time to pursue after Jiang Yi. They all gave it their all to exterminate the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings.
The battle only lasted for five minutes: All seventeen of the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings were killed while one of the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings was severely wounded and three lightly so. Of course, if Jiang Yi had not been around, most Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings would have probably perished in battle. Jiang Yi had used two balls of Merged Flames and had heavily wounded thirteen men, giving them an absolutely upper-hand during this battle.
Hoo-hoo!
Luo Qingyan was waiting obediently in the Divine Boat as Gu Mu brought Jiang Yi and flew into it. Gu Mu, whose heart was still palpitating, finally breathed out heavily. The danger of this battle had not only originated from the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings but also from the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan God Kings. If the latter did not listen to Luo Qingyan’s orders, who knew what would have happened?
“Head to the Dense Fog Peak at the fastest speed. As for everything else, follow according to Luo Qingyan’s plan!” Jiang Yi had been quite heavily wounded. He gave his orders to Luo Qingyan as he immediately sat cross-legged to prepare to recuperate.
After these seventeen had been killed—if they proceeded according to Luo Qingyan’s plan, they could easily mislead Luo Fu and company for a while. Jiang Yi and company can also successfully reach the Dense Fog Peak and locate Jiang Xiaonu before fleeing into the Dense Fog Forest.
“Alright!”
Luo Qingyan and Jiang Yi had an agreement that no outsider could find out about their relationship. She bowed her head slightly.
After the battle had finally ended and the spoils and corpses had been retrieved, Luo Qingyan controlled the Divine Boat, flew down, and gave her orders. “Luo Shui, ask two men to separately take these corpses and fly in three separate directions. After every five thousand kilometers, drop a body. Make sure to leave behind their transmission tokens so that Luo Fu can identify them and follow the trail. Also, pass all the battle spoils to Gu Mu; if you guys hold on to them, it would only bring trouble to the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan.”
“Understood!”
Luo Shui obeyed the orders. Although he did not know what Luo Qingyan wanted to do, this lady had already successfully laid a trap and killed seventeen God Kings from the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan; he and the other God Kings were very energetic now. Some had even started to guess that Jiang Yi and Luo Qingyan had come to some sort of agreement or perhaps this kidnapping attempt was another set-up? With the goal of exterminating the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan?
Jiang Yi did not pay attention to Luo Qingyan’s plans. He swallowed a recuperation medicine, looked to the east, and murmured, “Xiaonu, in at most one and a half days, I will arrive at the Dense Fog Peak. Wait for me!”
