Swish!
The eleven remaining King-Ranked martial artists escaped in different directions, but they did not dare to get too far away from the Teleportation Formation, in case Jiang Yi left. Of course, even Jiang Yi did leave, they were not afraid. This was because he needed some time to teleport. If Jiang Yi really dared to try to teleport away, they would dare to destroy the Teleportation Formation. Then, Jiang Yi would be diced by the power of the spatial turbulence.
Jiang Yi understood this as well so he did not ask the Poison Spirit to teleport. Instead, he tried his best to kill the eleven remaining people. The mummy was faster than Dao Feng and was probably comparable to Heavenly King Wu. The island was so only so big; how far could those people run?
In just twenty seconds, Jiang Yi caught up to another person. He summoned his Thousand Illusory Hands with rage, causing that man to fall for the trick a well. He did not even have a Primitive Spiritual Treasure as battle armor. The mummy easily struck him to death.
The ten remaining King-Ranked guards of the Teleportation Formations were actually not that strong. After all, if they really were that strong, why would they be standing guard here? The two men from the Dao Clan, all the more, were people whom Dao Leng left behind to act as bait. In other words, they were sent here to die. Why would Dao Leng leave his strongest martial artists here for that purpose?
Dao Leng was bringing many people with him, but these people were all hidden in various islands, thousands of kilometers away. With the Star Soul Formation, Jiang Yi would not be able to leave; much less did he dare to try and teleport away. Dao Leng would arrive in less than five minutes. Would these twelve people not even be able to hang on for that long?
Of course, they could. Jiang Yi led the mummy to sprint all around the island, and each of the remaining ten people escaped in different directions. Jiang Yi needed time to kill them one by one. When he was trying to kill the third person, the latter even dealt all sorts of crazy attacks at him, causing him to cough up blood.
The fourth person, the fifth person!
When he was killing the fifth person, more than two minutes had already passed. Since the situation looked amiss, he did not bother to continue chasing after the rest of the King-Ranked martial artists. Instead, he roared, “Poison Spirit, leave first!”
Buzz!
The Poison Spirit showed himself and immediately let Qi Qingchen out. Jiang Yi shouted, “Qi Qingchen, activate the Teleportation Formation!”
Qi Qingchen was not sure what was happening, but on seeing the way Jiang Yi looked, she immediately flew over to the center of the city plaza. At once, she found the Teleportation Formation that led back to the Earth Domain.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Streams of light kept shooting out of Qi Qingchen’s hands. The Teleportation Formation lit up. The Poison Spirit followed her closely into the Teleportation Formation. However, the latter did not dare to make any rash movements. He could not afford to make any wrong move in the Teleportation Formation. A single mistake could cause the Teleportation Formation to fail to activate. In fact, it could even explode.
“You want to run?”
They heard an ice-cold voice. From afar, a stream of light hit the Teleportation Formation. It was obvious they were aiming to destroy it. Jiang Yi steered the mummy towards the stream of light, trying to block the attack. Then, the mummy flew forward, causing the man to run as fast as he could in the other direction.
“Destroy the Teleportation Formation!”
“That’s right, everyone, hurry up and attack it! Don’t let them get away!”
“Attack…!”
Shouts were coming from every direction, along with streams of lights. In frustration, Jiang Yi had no choice but to chase them down. He steered the mummy back towards the men and blocked several attacks. At the same time, he made the mummy run around the Teleportation Formation continuously, scaring away all the King-Ranked martial artists who were trying to get close.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Qi Qingchen kept waving both of her hands around as streams of light kept shooting out of her palms. The Teleportation Formation became brighter and brighter. At last, a beam of light shot into the sky, lighting it up. The Teleportation Formation had been activated, and they were about to be teleported away.
Bang, bang, bang!
Jiang Yi was having a hard time steering the mummy around and around the Teleportation Formation, blocking off the attacks coming from various directions. Although he was wearing his Dao Heaven Spiritual Treasure battle armor, the continuous attacks were causing his body to become severely injured. Fresh blood poured out of his mouth, dyeing the white armor in front of his chest red.
“Jiang Yi, get in!”
Once Qi Qingchen was sure that the Teleportation Formation had been activated, she shouted at Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi turned around and grinned, exposing his blood-covered teeth. He said, “Qingchen, Poison Spirit, tell my three wives and my mother that I will be back. Trust me!”
Jiang Yi did not rush into the Teleportation Formation; if he did, the Teleportation Formation would have exploded for sure. Then, all three of them would die. He had to continue guarding the Teleportation Formation so that the two of them could leave this place.
The enemies did not care about Qi Qingchen or the Poison Spirit. They only wanted him.
If he did not teleport away, these King-Ranked martial artists would not attack the Teleportation Formation for no good reason. After all, the four Supreme Thearchs personally arranged for these Teleportation Formations to be built. Even the Dao Clan’s men would not destroy the Teleportation Formations for the sake of Qi Qingchen and the Poison Spirit. From the way the other King-Ranked martial artists attacked earlier, Jiang Yi could tell that they were just trying to scare him so that he would not dare to teleport away.
“Young Lord!”
The Poison Spirit clenched his fists and roared. Qi Qingchen stared at Jiang Yi grinning despite being covered in blood. For some reason, she felt her heart twist. Pained, she yelled, “Jiang Yi, you have to survive! You have to come back…”
“Hahaha, I’ll be back for sure! I still have to marry you!”
Jiang Yi laughed, sounding very relaxed. It sounded almost as if he was absolutely certain that he would make it back. Before he could finish speaking, the Teleportation Formation became even brighter. Both Qi Qingchen and the Poison Spirit disappeared into it.
As expected!
The moment the two of them were gone, the King-Ranked martial artists stopped attacking the Teleportation Formation. Jiang Yi heaved a sigh of relief. As long as both of them were safe, he could do anything he wanted.
“Kill!”
Since things had deteriorated to this stage, what else did Jiang Yi have to care about? He made the mummy sprint into the distance. Since he could not run away, he would at least kill these people before deciding what to do next.
“Run—”
The remaining seven King-Ranked martial artists sprinted in all directions in a panic, circling the Ethereal Spirit Island. Jiang Yi charged at them without any care in the world and very quickly caught up to two of them. He gritted his teeth and endured the continuous attacks by one of them as he killed them one by one.
“Jiang Yi, stop chasing us! Else, we will attack the Teleportation Formation. Both of your friends will be reduced to dust immediately!”
“That’s right, that’s right. After all, we will all die. Jiang Yi, if you continue to be so rash, we will destroy the Teleportation Formation at all costs.”
Two King-Ranked elderly shouted in fear. They were using Qi Qingchen and the Poison Spirit’s lives to threaten Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi stared at them coolly and shouted, “Go ahead and attack it. It’ll be best if you destroy the Teleportation Formations altogether. Then, your four great clans will have to endure the wrath of the four Supreme Thearchs. Should I help you to destroy the Teleportation Formation? I’ll also destroy the one that leads to the Heaven Domain.”
Ss, ss…
The remaining five people sucked in a deep breath. No one dared to say anything more. What if Jiang Yi really destroyed the Teleportation Formation that led to the Heaven Domain? The four Supreme Thearchs would surely pursue the matter. How would the four great clans withstand their wrath then? The Dao Clan would surely be punished, wouldn’t they?
If the five of them did not make any rash moves, Jiang Yi naturally would not either. If any one of the five of them went crazy, Qi Qingchen and the Poison Spirit would not even have bodies to be buried.
He continued to hunt each of the five of them down. The remaining martial artists were the strongest of the group, and they moved very quickly. After chasing them around for a while, he only managed to kill one more of them.
Just as he summoned his Thousand Illusory Hands, the protective layer of light in the sky flashed and disappeared. An aura that was a fraction stronger than the Green Eagle King’s descended. A voice, chilling to the bone, echoed throughout the Ethereal Spirit Island. “Jiang Yi? You’re very gutsy. You dared to kill my nephew and even put on his Heavenly Wind Armor? I am Dao Leng, the Hall Lord of the Dao Clan’s Battle Hall. Today, I have come to take revenge on behalf of my nephew.”
