Jiang Yi backtracked and hid in the shrubs again. If this bunch of people was really going to do commit such atrocious acts, he would naturally have to interfere. If he didn’t, he would probably feel guilty for his entire life.
The black-robed young lady didn’t reply, but her eyes were filled with anger. Among the opposite group of five was this young man who wore a luxurious blue robe and had this splendid-looking longsword tucked on his waist. This young man was rather dashing, but it was a pity that his face was hung with this malicious smile. With just one look, anyone could see that he wasn’t the type who is a kind and polite gentleman.
The young master took a glance and saw the other four members having this perverse look. He then scoffed. “Do you guys think we are still in Jiangling City? Young Master here is going to enter the college this time. What if something happened? Who is going to take responsibility?”
“What are you afraid of, Young Master?!”
The scrawny youth that spoke earlier gave a greedy look at the black-robed young lady. He let out a sneer and said, “Didn’t we see the patrolling mentor left just now? What’s more, with Young Master’s status, would regular mentors dare offend you?”
“You are full of nonsense!”
The Young Master took a glance at the curvaceous body of the black-robed young lady and said with a hand gesture, “Do it then. Keep a look out for me later. Let this Young Master have some fun first…”
“Clang!”
Once the young master gave the order, two for them drew their weapon by the side while the other two maintained their aim with those crossbows. Every one of them had this cruel intent in their eyes, and it was obvious that if this young lady dared to move, their crossbows would definitely be utilized.
Goddammit!
Jiang Yi cursed in his heart. Hearing the tonality of these people—seeing their manners and demeanor—it was obvious that this young master had an abnormally esteemed status. They probably had ruined the chastity of numerous ladies back in their city. If he had to take action, he would need to kill them to prevent any future consequences.
The problem was… if he killed and got found out later on, the consequences would be even worse. Not to mention not entering Mt. Spirit Beast College, even Jiang Yunhai might be implicated!
Ignore it?
This was not possible. Jiang Yi knew that he wasn’t a great person, but there were still limits that shouldn’t be crossed in his heart. Take for example: kneeling—he wouldn’t kneel even if he was to die. Or like the current situation in front of his eyes… if he didn’t interfere, it would definitely leave a trauma in his heart which might affect his future path towards the martial dao.
Who cares! There will be a way once I reach that juncture. If I am fearful of all these problems, what kind of man am I?
Jiang Yi resolved his heart and began to move stealthily towards where the young master stood. Jiang Yi wanted to be cautious towards those crossbows. Those were artifacts that had horrifying speed once the user poured their essence force within. A single careless mistake would bring him to see KingYama 1 .
“Young chick, be good and don’t move. Or else our crossbow might destroy you like crushing a jade or withering a flower. Don’t think about committing suicide either; even if you die, the college cannot do anything to our Young Master. Our Young Master has an unparalleled status that you should thankful that he wants to have a taste of you…”
The two individuals at the front were about to approach the black-robed young lady. Seeing that she didn’t dare to move—even though she was extremely furious—they sheathed their longswords and lunged at her, preparing to take her down.
“Swish!”
Right at this moment, the young lady suddenly made a move. The black-colored longsword suddenly shone with green light, turning into green lightning that thrust towards the weaker youth on the left.
“Ah?”
That target’s eyes shrank as he quickly retreated with fear. He didn’t expect the black-robed young lady’s sword was like the river that didn’t stop and was extremely fast. In a blink of the eye, the sword reached his lower body and was about to pierce into his crotch!
“You dare?!”
The other youth was furious. He was at the ninth stage of the Cast Tripod Realm, and he drew his sheathed sword again to thrust like thunder at the back of the young lady. If this young lady dared to cripple his brother, his longsword would also penetrate her body.
“Tsk-Tsk!”
The longsword in the hands of the young lady didn’t pause at all as it thrust viciously at the crotch. With a shake of the longsword, the youth’s robes instantly burst apart as blood spurted violently. His eyes were overflowing with fear while he began to scream at his loudest voice!
“You must be tired of living!”
The martial artist, who was at the ninth stage of the Cast Tripod Realm, had a flash of killing intent in his eyes as he guided his longsword to penetrate the back of the young lady. But right at the moment before the longsword pierced her back, the young lady shifted slightly, only to had the longsword piercing her left shoulder.
This young lady has a ruthless heart. That youth who is at the ninth stage of the Cast Tripod Realm is done for!
Jiang Yi raised a thumb for the young lady. His eyes lit up when it was the perfect moment for him to strike. He increased his maneuver speed and sneaked towards the other three youths.
Sure enough!
As expected by Jiang Yi, the young lady let out an expression of pain after being pierced by the longsword, but she controlled her body to ram backward. She actually allowed the longsword to pierce her shoulders while taking this opportunity to get near the attacker. Her black-colored longsword acted like a poison dragon, penetrating downwards from his armpit. The youth had this shocked expression as the sword pierced into his abdomen. The young lady then ruthlessly twisted the sword to ruin her enemy’s dantian.
“Lao Si! Lao Wu!”
The young master and his other subordinates were staring in disbelief. This young lady was only about 16 years old and actually had such combat ability? Such a ruthless heart! Crippling two individuals in just their first meeting?
“Release the arrows! Kill her!”
The young master’s eye had a flash of killing intent as he shot out the crossbow bolt from the crossbow in his hand. Once the other two youths awoke from realization, they immediately shot out the crossbow bolts, too.
“Swish!”
Right at this moment, a round wood was rocketed into the air from a bush. The speed of the round wood was astounding, and the timing was perfect, blocking all the crossbow bolts that were aimed at the young lady.
“Pong, Pong, Pong…!”
As all three bolts pierced into the round wood, the young master and his two men were shocked. They glared at the bush where the wood came from but saw countless black shadows shot at them instead. Right at the same time, a figure dashed towards them like a ferocious tiger rushing at them.
The three of them didn’t have time to reload their crossbow; thus, they drew their swords that were hung on their waists. They each brandished their swords to deflect the stones that were thrown by Jiang Yi. One of them darted at Jiang Yi while the other rushed at the black-robed young lady.
“A mere fifth stage of the Cast Tripod Realm, and you dare meddle in our affairs? I shall send you on your way to hell!”
The one who targeted Jiang Yi was a youth who was at the seventh stage of the Cast Tripod Realm. His eyes were filled with cruel intent as he grasped his longsword with both hands while cleaving at Jiang Yi’s neck.
Black essence force!
With the current circumstances, Jiang Yi didn’t dare to conceal his true strength if not this young lady might lose her life. He channeled a wisp of the black essence force to his left hand and thrust his Green Destiny Sword upwards.
“Clang!”
As both the swords clashed, the Green Destiny Sword was instantly knocked off. His opponent let out a trace smile of mockery as his longsword continued on its trajectory, but his expression froze before he could truly turn it into a smile. That was because Jiang Yi’s palm, which was glowing in black and blue, had a sudden surge in power that instantly exploded!
“Boom!”
This martial artist who was at the seventh stage of the Cast Tripod Realm might have retreated in an instant, but at such a close distance, one of his arms still got blown into a blood drench, and his longsword was blasted off, too.
Jiang Yi’s Exploding Essence Palm was already horrifying powerful before he broke through to the fifth stage of Cast Tripod Realm, severely injuring Ma Yin who was at the first stage of Purple Mansion Realm. Right now, that firepower was much superior, and Jiang Yi was even holding back by not channeling too much essence force, or else his enemy would have instantly died from the explosion.
Not good!
Jiang Yi wasn’t pleased after defeating one of the enemies—because the other youth was already approaching the black-robed young lady. He could only clench his teeth and dash towards the young master. Whether could he save the young lady would depend on whether he could take down this young master.
This young master who was dressed in a luxurious robe was extremely calm. Jiang Yi might have seriously injured his subordinate with a single attack, but he wasn’t panicking at all. Instead, he looked at Jiang Yi and scoffed. “You bastard, I will stand still for you to kill. But do you dare? I forgot to mention that I am Jiang Qilin. My uncle is the Western Garrison Liege Lord, Jiang Beili. If you dare to touch even a hair on me, I will bring death to your whole clan!”
