“Massacre Intent?”
Shui Qianrou had a trace of astonishment in her eyes, but it soon turned into excitement. She let out a mild smile. “Sure enough, he has some tricks. Didn’t waste this Young Lady’s time for coming all the way here. Hurhur! Mt. Spirit Beast College’s no.1 prodigy, see how this Young Lady stomp you under my feet. Blackie, go!”
“Roar-Roar!”
The massive nostrils of the Black Qilin blew out two puffs of white smoke. When the white smoke got in contact with the ground, there was an immediate blazing fire that burnt up all the weeds on the surface, charring the ground. Its four hooves stomped and rushed towards Jiang Yi like a fighting bull that turned into an afterimage.
“Die!”
Jiang Yi didn’t have any hint of fear. His eyes were now completely blood red, and the killing aura on his body was now increased by another notch. That horrific killing aura suppressed Shui Qianrou so much that she was shivering, but it didn’t have much of an effect on the Black Qilin. Jiang Yi’s Massacre Intent was only at the second stage and could barely suppress demonic beasts at the peak grade of tier-two; it was naturally weaker when used on tier-three demonic beasts.
“Blackie, stomp him to death!”
Shui Qianrou was affected by the killing aura and had this pale-looking expression. She was angered out of shame while she yelled out. She reached out her hand that was glowing with light and grasped the air. Soon enough, that silver necklace swiftly returned. The giant Black Qilin leaped up high and stomped down with its stone pillar hooves on Jiang Yi.
“Exploding Essence Palm!”
Jiang Yi quickly congealed a hundred wisps of black essence force and compressed them in his palm, slamming it hard on the hoof of the Black Qilin.
“Boom!”
A frightful amount of essence force poured out and exploded in the air. The strong shockwave sent the massive Black Qilin flying and also forced Jiang Yi back by a few hundred feet.
The defense of a tier-three demonic beast was indeed tough. Even after tumbling for several rounds on the ground due to the shockwave, the Black Qilin didn’t suffer any injuries apart from the indistinct bleeding on its left front hoof.
In contrast, Shui Qianrou was in a pathetic state. She might have reacted on time and avoided being crushed down by the falling Black Qilin, but after tumbling for several rounds on the ground, her entire outward appearance was dirty and disordered. Her hands were painted black, and her jet-black hair was extremely messy, extremely miserable.
“Jiang Yi, you are dead! Blackie, burn him!”
Shui Qianrou’s delicate body was shaking with anger, and her expression was overflowing with cold killing aura. She let out a delicate shout and flew up into the air to catch the returning necklace with a single hand. She then immediately circulated her essence force, preparing for an attack.
“Roar-Roar!”
The Black Qilin was injured and was raging abnormally. The enormous body leaped back up and dashed towards Jiang Yi with lightning speed. It had arrived nearby Jiang Yi, just as he managed to stand back up. It opened its scarlet mouth and spat out a blue flame that enveloped Jiang Yi.
“Bastard. It is forgivable if this is a sin by the heavens, but it is unforgivable if it is by your own choice!”
Jiang Yi calmly stood still and allowed the flames to envelop him. As expected, the Fire Spirit Pearl lit up and created a transparent layer of light on his body. When the flames got in contact with the layer of light, it vanished immediately, completely absorbed by the Fire Spirit Pearl.
“Roar-Roar!”
The Black Qilin didn’t have much spirit wisdom either. When it saw the flames that it spat out vanished, it let out a thunderous roar and ferociously spat out even larger flames than before.
“Continue spitting!”
Jiang Yi stood still. If this Black Qilin spat out more flames, his Fire Spirit Pearl would absorb more, and he would have more options to attack.
“Eh?”
When the Black Qilin spat out the third wave of flames, Shui Qianrou finally realized it. She shouted, “Blackie, withdraw. He has an artifact and isn’t afraid of your flames!”
The Black Qilin was a fire-attribute demonic beast, similarly to the Flaming Bird. Its main attack was to rely on the demonic art’s flames. Since this flame was ineffective against Jiang Yi, and Jiang Yi had the Exploding Essence Palm to harm the Black Qilin; Shui Qianrou naturally didn’t want her Black Qilin to risk it.
“Escape? Too late!”
Jiang Yi snorted as he swiftly retrieved the Fire Spirit Pearl. He flicked out a piece of the Fire Spirit Rock with a lightning-fast speed that didn’t allow any time to react.
The Fire Spirit Rock was instantly shot at the Black Qilin and immediately burst into green flames when it made contact with the Black Qilin’s body. The head of the Black Qilin had a huge hole scorched on it, which was caught on a blazing fire, too. In just a split moment, that Black Qilin’s humongous head was burnt into char. The massive body suddenly fell and was utterly dead.
“Ah— Blackie!”
Shui Qianrou saw the tragic sight of the Black Qilin and instantly let out a miserable scream. This Black Qilin had grown up alongside her, and they had a deep relationship. Now that it was slain by Jiang Yi, she felt like her heart was being torn apart.
“Hmph, if you dare to kill, then be prepared to be killed!”
Jiang Yi expression didn’t have any hint of emotion. He burst forth towards Shui Qianrou, using the berserker killing aura to shroud Shui Qianrou. A black crossbow appeared on his other hand and shot ruthlessly at Shui Qianrou.
Zhuge Qingyun once said that Jiang Yi had this evil tendency that was hidden within his body. Once he was enraged, he would stop at nothing to murder and would only think after he acted. Right now, this had proved his statement.
“Jiang Yi. If this Young Lady doesn’t kill you, then I am not human!”
The crossbow bolt that was piercing through the air woke up Shui Qianrou. She might have been affected by the Massacre Intent and had her strength suppressed, but she still believed that she could easily kill Jiang Yi.
“Swish!”
As she watched at the God-Exterminating Crossbow which shot at her, Shui Qianrou didn’t have any intention to dodge and began to stand up instead. Dancing along with her delicate body, her beautiful green dress suddenly lit up with a resplendent green light. A round-shaped green light enclosed her.
“Bang!”
When the crossbow bolt finally reached its target, it actually bounced off of the green light like it had hit an iron plate. With the clashing sound of metal, the crossbow bolt bounced off; and Shui Qianrou was perfectly fine.
Where did this mad woman come from? Why is she equipped with so many absolute artifacts?
The clear subconscious in Jiang Yi’s mind was amazed. The power of the God-Exterminating Bow was formidable, enough to even kill a Soul Travel Realm martial expert if it actually hit, right? Could the dress that she wore be a saint-tier artifact? Were there as many saint-tier artifacts as there was fur on the bull?
“Die!”
With a swing of her jade hands, the necklace in Shui Qianrou’s hand turned into a white ray and shot at Jiang Yi again. This necklace swelled up along the way while the horrifying aura that was emitted. It made Jiang Yi certain that if he was hit by it, his body would definitely turn into mincemeat.
“Silver-Moon Demon Wolf, appear!”
Jiang Yi burst out shouting immediately, and a purple demon wolf instantly appeared in front of him. Jiang Yi’s body leaped onto it, and he quickly controlled the demon wolf to lunge to the side.
“Mad woman, go to hell!”
The demon wolf was too fast. Jiang Yi was able to instantly release his spirit beast, which helped him to barely escape the attack from the necklace. He controlled the demon wolf and lunged at Shui Qianrou with lightning speed. One of his hands was grasping the Fire Spirit Pearl tightly, getting ready to release the Fire Spirit Rock to kill Shui Qianrou.
Shui Qianrou had too many artifacts on her, and Jiang Yi didn’t want to risk it. She might have the green dress that could produce a light shield, but Jiang Yi was confident that the Fire Spirit Rock could easily scorch through it and eliminate Shui Qianrou.
“Boss, no!”
At this moment, a figure came flying from a distance. It was Qian Wanguan who was being carried by Liu Lao. When Qian Wanguan saw Jiang Yi riding on the Silver-Moon Demon Wolf and was darting towards Shui Qianrou like an arrow—with eyes of killing aura, Qian Wanguan instantly roared out, “Boss, if you kill Shui Qianrou, even the heavens cannot save you! Her mother is the no.1 martial expert in the continent!”
Jiang Yi’s blood red eyes shrank, but he didn’t have any hesitation as he continued onwards with the Silver-Moon Demon Wolf. He burst out with a roar, “If anyone wants to kill me, Jiang Yi—even if it was the gods, they must be prepared to die!”
