In the western sea of the Phoenix Cry Continent, a young man was traveling by stepping on the sea. He was wearing a beast pelt battle robe, and half his chest was exposed, displaying his firm muscles that had scars on it. He had shaven head while his left ear had oval-shaped earrings. He had a narrow and long heaven artifact battle saber on his back. He didn’t give off a formidable aura presence, but his fierce eyes were glimmering with radiance, making people feel that they shouldn’t belittle him.
Jiang Yi scanned with his divine senses as he didn’t have any hint of information on this Phoenix Cry Continent. He didn’t know if the continent was ruled by the human race, the demon race, or a special race. Jiang Yi knew nothing, but that purple-haired young lady didn’t point out anything. This should mean that this continent wasn’t any treacherous place.
He had to enter the continent first and scout out some information. It would be perfect if he could obtain a complete map of the world.
He had been cautiously scouting along the way. If there were any humans or soldiers, he would immediately avoid them. It would be best if he could sneak in, but he didn’t dare to go under the water as he was afraid there might be some restriction which would make things worse.
The continent was getting closer, and Jiang Yi could see a vast land from afar. There wasn’t any human or sea demon in the surroundings. Jiang Yi paused for a little before advancing over the sea. When he was close to the continent and certain that there was no one else around, he quickly landed on the continent.
After scanning the place, Jiang Yi realized that it was nothing but wilderness. He started to roam the place and scout out the situation in the nearby vicinity.
He stopped circulating the essence force in his dantian and walked out from his physical body. In this way, he would be able to completely conceal his aura presence; and even if someone spotted him, they wouldn’t be able to sense his true strength.
“Humans!”
After traveling for one hour, Jiang Yi saw a city from a long distance. When he scanned and noticed a group of human soldiers in the city, he was instantly delighted.
The Phoenix Cry Continent was ruled by humans. They were ordinary humans and not the special race. Jiang Yi was completely relieved as he could blend into the continent openly and slowly plan on what to do next.
He casually used his divine senses and noticed that the soldiers on the walls were not considered formidable, and the strongest among them were only at the Soul Travel Realm while the rest of the soldiers were only of Purple Mansion Ream. This small city didn’t seem to have any martial experts. Even if he had some conflict, he could easily slaughter everyone and leave without a second thought.
Of course…
He wasn’t here to kill and was here to gather information. Once he killed someone, the risk of exposing his identity would greatly increase. The purple-haired young lady mentioned that he could maintain a low-profile in the outside world; otherwise, he might die without knowing why. Thus, he mustn’t make any move, and he had to conceal himself.
“Eh?”
Jiang Yi scanned with his divine senses again and was bewildered. He realized that all the soldiers on the city walls were actually women. There wasn’t even a single man?!
On the Stellarsky Continent, there were plenty of female martial artists; and there were also quite a fair number of female peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts. Grandma Silver Flower and Hundred Blossom Lady were Vajra Realm martial experts, and Shui Youlan was even the no.1 of the continent.
No one could deny that the martial experts of the continent were always dominated by the males. There were only rare few women in the military, and the number of female generals could be counted on one’s fingers. There was basically no military that was entirely made up of females, apart from those major clan’s young ladies having some fun.
Could this city’s City Lord be female as well? All the soldiers are female?
Jiang Yi pondered for a moment and didn’t bother anymore. He went underground and was preparing to infiltrate the city. He would then look for an opportunity to gather information.
The city was indeed very small; there wasn’t any barrier under the city. Jiang Yi effortlessly infiltrated the city from underground, and he prudently scouted the situation above with his divine senses.
The surface was bustling with noise as it was a bazaar. Jiang Yi took a casual sweep and was pleasantly surprised. He could clearly understand what the humans were talking about—as it was exactly the same language spoken on the Stellarsky Continent.
When he thought about it, Yi Piaopiao and the purple-haired young lady were all from other continents. They were also speaking the same language as the people on the Stellarsky Continent. Jiang Yi immediately realized that this language was probably universal in the entire Stellarsky Domain.
Jiang Yi discreetly scanned his divine senses across the people on the surface. He was certain that their attire wasn’t very different from him, and there were some that were wearing fur coats. He was utterly at ease and didn’t think too much before he surfaced in a concealed place.
Now that he was back at a human’s city, he looked around at the houses which were built with limestone and felt a certain familiarity. After drifting in the ocean for more than a month, he had finally returned to the human world, which stirred up his emotions.
…
When in the city, he didn’t dare to release his divine senses anymore while he properly concealed the tunnel below him. He leaped out of the abandoned courtyard and walked onto the main street. He looked around and was preparing to search for an inn to gather information about the Phoenix Cry Continent.
“En?”
Once he walked on the street, he felt something was wrong!
He noticed that many people were looking at him. Many of those who were in discussions had quickly locked their eyes on him as well.
Jiang Yi blinked and rubbed his nose, as he didn’t think that he had exposed any flaws. He had yet to even speak a single word. Why were these people all looking at him like this?
Could he be utterly handsome? Or was his style too flashy? Was the monarch’s aura on him too prominent?
Clang! Clang!
Many female martial artists on the street immediately drew their weapons and surrounded Jiang Yi. The men all quickly hid behind the women and looked at him fearfully. Jiang Yi noticed a strange situation here: all the men on the street didn’t seem to have cultivated, but all the women were martial artists. Furthermore, most women were all at the Purple Mansion Realm.
There was an even stranger thing: the women on the street all had an imposing aura and looked very upright. The men were all well-mannered and demure; some of them even put on makeup and had a bashful appearance.
Bang!
One of the women’s signal flare rushed towards the sky as a team of soldiers quickly arrived. The female soldiers were all riding on tier-two demonic beasts, red-colored tigers. The leader was wearing a general’s battle armor and had formidable aura presence. She was apparently a Soul Travel Realm soldier.
“Spy, quickly surrender yourself and wait for the City Lord to deal with you. If you dare to act recklessly, you shall be killed without mercy!”
The female general was around the age of 30, and her spear was pointed at Jiang Yi from afar. She shouted from far away, and her murderous aura was rushing directly at Jiang Yi, as she was prepared to attack at any moment.
“Spy?”
Jiang Yi blinked his eyes with a confused expression. He didn’t know what had exposed him, but he was instantly seen through.
He had a dilemma; should he fight or endure? If he was to fight, he could easily kill everyone here; but he might risk having the Phoenix Cry Continent’s experts pursuing him.
Endure it!
Jiang Yi made the decision quickly. The strongest martial artist in this city should only be at the peak stage of the Soul Travel Realm, who would be killed by him anytime he wanted. He decided to see how the city lord was going to deal with him.
He let out a smile and didn’t try to quibble. He bowed with cupped hands and smiled. “I am Lone Wolf. I am fond of traveling the world and am taking a stroll after passing by Phoenix Cry Continent. I definitely do not have any malicious intent. Would this general bring me to see the City Lord?”
“Hmph! Take him down!”
Once the female general shouted, a few of the soldiers immediately leaped off from the red tigers and pressed down Jiang Yi. They took out a few black ancient vines from their waists and tied Jiang Yi up like a human dumpling. They even seized his heaven artifact long saber, but they didn’t take the Fire Spirit Pearl which was concealed in his sleeve.
“Take him away!”
When the female general saw that Jiang Yi didn’t put up any resistance, she was relieved. Jiang Yi didn’t circulate the essence force in his star spheres and didn’t have any trace of an expert’s aura presence, but the natural presence that he revealed was enough to cause this female general’s heart to palpitate.
There is something strange about this ancient vine!
Jiang Yi immediately noticed something wrong when the ancient vine tied him up. When the vine wrapped around him, there was this unknown energy that entered his body and prevented him from circulating his essence force. This vine was obviously used for restraining people, but Jiang Yi didn’t mind it at all. What was there to fear if he could simply release his Massacre Intent, and the entire city would be suppressed by him?
He was carried by a woman onto the red tiger, and they were rushing towards a giant courtyard which was located in the center of the city. The woman carrying Jiang Yi had rather good looks, and when they were moving, she secretly felt Jiang Yi’s strong body. She even wanted to touch his lower body, which caused Jiang Yi’s body to shudder.
“Don’t move!”
When the woman noticed that Jiang Yi was having an odd reaction, she let out a smile and leaned onto Jiang Yi’s back. She then whispered something that caused Jiang Yi to be utterly astonished. “Little cutie, be a good boy! The City Lord adores sturdy little men like this. She will surely cherish you, and after the City Lord had enough fun, all our sisters will also dote on you. As long as you are obedient, we will never kill you.”
