Since there were a few Black Wasps that appeared in the nearby vicinity of Western Peace City, then the hive shouldn’t be too far away. It should be in one of the islands in the 100,000 miles of western sea region. There were plenty of sea demons in this region, but there wouldn’t be any demon kings.
Hence, it was rather safe for the fleet, and there would be Soul Travel Realm experts who would constantly scout the sea below. Once any sea demons were approaching, they would immediately sound the alarm; and a large group of Soul Travel Realm experts would dive into the sea and eliminate the threat.
This venture to the sea had turned into a travel trip. These princes and princesses would host parties from time to time and invite all those young masters and ladies who had friendly terms with them or those who they wanted to be on good terms with.
The fleet was originally moving at a fast pace and searching all the islands. After searching a few islands, they began to move at a leisure pace; and it felt as though they were on a scenic tour. Many of the young masters and ladies even dove into the sea to hunt sea demons and tempered themselves.
The objective of the various clans was for these noble and royal descendants to venture out and temper themselves while winning over relationships with the others. Hence, an originally tensed-up trip to search for treasure had been a trip for the princes and young masters to hook up with young ladies. While these young ladies had treated this trip as a pageant for them to look for a good husband.
God damn it!
While the people in the fleet below were having fun and sumptuous meals, Jiang Yi was 30 kilometers in the sky, eating rations and drinking clean water. Mostly due to the large winds, he couldn’t even rest properly. After waiting for three days and seeing that the fleet was getting slower and slower, he finally couldn’t take it anymore.
“Yazi Beast, go to the island at the front!”
He saw an average-sized island at the front and quickly had this idea. He ordered the Yazi Beast to detour around the fleet and silently landed on the other side of the island.
Buzz!
He took out and wore the Hundred Transformation Mask, immediately turning himself into a callous-looking middle-aged man. He then returned the Yazi Beast into the Universal Palace and comfortably wandered around the island.
Swish! Swish!
One hour later, the fleet stopped by the island; and plenty of Soul Travel Realm experts alighted from the large ships. They began to scout the island and search for the Black Wasps.
They didn’t find any Black Wasps, but they found Jiang Yi!
Four Soul Travel Realm experts approached while Jiang Yi simply stopped moving. When they noticed him, he instantly yelled out nervously, “Who goes there?”
Swish!
Jiang Yi got nervous as he didn’t know which clan did these four martial artists came from. One of them was at the eighth stage of the Soul Travel Realm, and he was looking at Jiang Yi while on alert, “Who are you? Why do you look so unfamiliar?”
“This man will not change his name or his family name. I am Qian Batian!”
Jiang Yi raised his head and gave this look of disdain while he asked, “Who are you guys?”
“A member of the Qian Clan?”
The four of them swept a suspicious look at Jiang Yi and sneered. “A member of the Qian Clan actually doesn’t recognize us? You are a spy, right? Where is your token? Hurhur, if you don’t have one, then don’t blame us for being rude!”
Clang! Clang!
As they spoke, the four of them immediately drew their weapons and surrounded Jiang Yi. All of them were circulating their essence force and preparing to attack.
Jiang Yi was grumbling in his heart. He originally thought he could blend in effortlessly. As long as he could find the ship where Qian Wanguan was, he would be able to travel along with the fleet peacefully. He would then wait for the crucial moment and plunder with surprise.
Right now, he was about to expose himself already?
He wasn’t fearful of the members of the great clan, but it wouldn’t be good to expose his identity. It would tire him to death to search for the Black Wasps by himself. Furthermore, he didn’t know what the trick to harvesting the honey was.
Kill these four individuals?
His eyes flickered, but he quickly denied it. If these four individuals were dead, it would surely alert the rest. He swept a look at them and saw a familiar symbol on the corner of their clothes. He let out a faint laugh and said, “Oh! Here I am wondering which clan dared to behave with such arrogance. So it is the Jiang Clan. Is Young Master Yiliu preparing to kill our Young Clan Head on this trip?”
Jiang Yiliu had been under house arrest for one year and had just been released. He had been bored to death for one year and had some small achievements in cultivation. He was in a hurry for some entertainment after he got out, and so he naturally wouldn’t miss such a great opportunity.
Jiang Yi had obtained the information about Jiang Yiliu from the Qian Clan’s deacon. After seeing the Jiang Clan’s crest, he immediately reacted and intimidated them.
As expected—!
Once Jiang Yi spoke, the four of them immediately let down their guard and swept a few glances at Jiang Yi before they grunted and left.
Jiang Yi’s eyes flickered as he quickly rushed to the shores of the island. If he was to continue waiting on the island, he might let the cat out of the bag. He would rather rush towards the large ships and search for Zhan Wushuang and Qian Wanguan.
Swish!
Soon enough, he arrived at the shore and used the black essence force enhanced vision to look into the distance as he tried to look for the Zhan and the Qian Clans’ ships.
“A golden leopard flag!”
He quickly locked onto the large ship on the left which had the golden leopard flag of the Qian Clan. He rushed frantically and flew towards the large ship. Before he could approach, a few of the experts appeared on the deck and yelled out, “Who goes there? Halt!”
“It’s me!”
Jiang Yi smiled while speaking. His Fire Spirit Pearl flashed silently and took out a token which he tossed to the deck. He then leaped up and shouted while in mid-air, “Is Young Master Wanguan not around? I have to meet him for something.”
When everyone saw Jiang Yi flying over, they were tensed-up and had revolved their essence force, getting ready to attack at any time. Once that peak-stage Soul Travel Realm expert caught hold of the token, he suddenly yelled out, “Everyone, stop. He is…”
“Hahaha! Old Liu, you scoundrel actually still remembered me!”
When Jiang Yi saw that this person was about to say his name and was going to kneel as his knees went soft. He quickly flew over, hugged this veteran, and laughed heartily. He whispered at the same time, “Don’t kneel, and don’t expose my identity!”
The Qian Clan’s peak-stage Soul Travel Realm expert immediately reacted and silently made a hand gesture to everyone else. He then passionately held onto Jiang Yi and walked into the cabin of the ship.
When Jiang Yi was rushing in a straight line, he had alerted the experts from the other ships in the surroundings. If his name was yelled out or someone knelt in front of him, his identity would be immediately exposed.
“Young Master Yi!”
Once inside the inner cabin, the veteran immediately knelt while facing Jiang Yi. The others plopped down and knelt as well while their eyes lit up. They had received the message that Jiang Yi was coming, but they didn’t expect him to arrive this quickly.
“Get up, get up, we are all on the same side. What is there to kneel for?!”
Jiang Yi took off the Hundred Transformation Mask and revealed his real face. He grinned and asked, “Where are Wanguan and Wushuang? Which ship are they on?”
“Young Master Yi!”
The veteran replied with respect, “Young Clan Head, Young Master Wushuang, and Princess Yun Fei have all went to attend Young Lady’s Qianrou’s banquet. Shall I send someone to call them back?”
“There is no need. Prepare some food for me. I am going to starve to death.”
Jiang Yi shook his hand and stretched his body. He planned to stay at Qian Wanguan’s place and have sumptuous meals every day. When he had nothing to do, he would comprehend the sorcery arts. When they found the Black Wasps, he would make the final move to snatch it and fly off into the distance.
The veteran quickly dismissed everyone and personally went to arrange some delicacies. Jiang Yi was lying down on the bed comfortably and was planning to have a good sleep after his sumptuous meal.
“Ahh!” Shush! Shush! “Wa!”
After moments later, the meal wasn’t delivered yet; but there was a commotion on the outside. There was also someone screaming miserably. Jiang Yi frowned and wore his mask before going out. He took a quick glance and noticed that a servant from the Qian Clan was actually supporting a martial artist who was drenched in blood. Everyone had this anguished expression.
“What’s the situation?”
Jiang Yi asked the veteran to come over and ask. That veteran immediately explained to Jiang
Yi in a soft voice, “Young Clan Head had been mocked and ridiculed by the Xiao Clan. They had constantly provoked him, and Qian Gang couldn’t bear it anymore and fought… but was severely injured…”
“Xiao Clan? Xiao Longwang’s descendant? Hurhur, they have the guts to actually dare bully my fatty? He is looking for a beating.” Jiang Yi’s straight brows lifted as he sneered and waved his hand, “Let’s go, let’s go. All the peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts, follow me. I will go vent the anger for your Young Clan Head.”
