Among these Heaven Monarch experts, there was one middle-staged Heaven Monarch who was Big Sister Bell’s no.1 combatant, Yang Dong!
Yang Dong was a low-key person and was extremely loyal and devoted to Big Sister Bell. Originally, Jiang Yi and Big Sister Bell had discussed and prepared to assist Yang Dong up as one of the chiefs. With the support from two of them, Chief Leng and the others wouldn’t even dare to let out a fart. However, Yang Dong actually rejected it and said that it was easier to follow Big Sister Bell as he didn’t have to think about anything and simply killed whoever Big Sister Bell asked him to kill.
Jiang Yi’s men had returned to the city quietly and sought for Big Sister Bell. Once she heard that it was a request from Jiang Yi, Big Sister Bell didn’t have any hesitation as she ordered for Yang Dong to gather all the men and follow Niu Deng to this place.
When Niu Deng just arrived at the desert and saw that Bu He and his men were about to start the battle with Jiang Yi, he naturally disregarded everything and prepared for battle as well. The moment he received Jiang Yi’s transmitted message, he immediately released his divine shield and drew his weapon while attacking with a burst of roar.
Jiang Yi had more than 30 Heaven Monarchs under him, and in addition to Yang Dong and his over 60 men, nearly 100 Heaven Monarchs flew over in a majestic manner. All started to attack after Niu Deng’s burst of roar.
Chi! Chi!
Boom! Boom!
Pong-Pong!
How horrific it was for over 90 Heaven Monarchs releasing attacks together? The results were clear in the battlefield. After more than 90 attacks were released, even Jiang Yi’s expression had changed as his Fire Cloud Armor appeared while he retreated at this fastest speed. Those six Heaven Monarchs behind him had already retreated long in advance.
The sky over at that side was illuminated with every color under the sun. More than 90 streams of light flew over, causing the layers of air to shake, while there was an ear-piercing sharp sound. The surrounding spatial zone was ripped apart, revealing terrifying cracks. These attacks contained various dao patterns and strange shapes. There were some that were like sharp spears which slithered over like a venomous snake. Some engulfed over with high temperature like a fire phoenix. Some condensed a skull of a strange beast, letting out deafening roars while rushing over. Some had formed giant demon faces, which already made people’s hearts palpitate, let alone getting hit by the unknown dao pattern.
“Quickly retreat…”
Bu He’s face immediately changed. He initially wanted to attack at Jiang Yi, but when facing so many horrific attacks, how could he dare to continue attacking? He had no choice but to roar out and dodge to the side at the same time. Concurrently, his halberd struck out a shocking silver light which had the might of the galaxy as it burst towards a dozen attacks fearlessly.
Bu He’s Heaven Monarch subordinates were already ghastly pale as the opposition had more than twice their number. They originally thought that this young chief didn’t have any strength, but it seemed like he was even more aggressive than Chief Li, Chief Ying, and the others which they had provoked previously. The ability to gather so many Heaven Monarchs was already a type of strength, and if he didn’t have strength, would the Heaven Monarchs listen to his orders?
Of course, they didn’t have time to think about such things right now. They desperately attacked while pouring essence force into their divine shields and dodged to the side at the fastest speed.
“Boss Bu, save us…”
“Surrender, we surrender!”
“Save us, we don’t want to die…”
Those Heaven Monarchs had the divine shields and were very fast, but those 300 peak-stage Vajra Realm experts couldn’t save themselves. When facing against the destructive and sky-covering attacks, they all revealed their despair and howled miserably.
The attacks were too fast and too many in numbers. Those Heaven Monarchs there were fast enough might be able to dodge; those that were slower would inevitably be struck. How was it even possible for the Vajra Realm martial artists to escape?
Three hundred Vajra Realm martial artists were turned into mincemeat while many of those Heaven Monarchs that couldn’t escape in time would have their divine shields shattered. Their bodies would then be turned into a blood mist and scattered into the sky. There were explosions everywhere, and the spatial zones were distorted, ripped apart—while explosive sounds echoed nonstop by the ears. It was so loud that even the sound of the thunderbolts that struck down from the sky was buried.
One round, it was merely a single round of attack.
Bu He’s 300 Vajra Realm subordinates were all eliminated while at least ten of the forty Heaven Monarchs were killed. There were some whose divine shield were shattered, and yet were still able to escape, but they all had varying injuries. By contrast, Jiang Yi’s side only had a few whose divine shield were shattered and had light injuries. It was a one-sided scenario as Bu He’s side had been completely suppressed.
“Uh…”
Jiang Yi had retreated rather quickly, and he had the Fire Cloud Armor which had defenses comparable to a middle-staged Heaven Monarch. The aftershocks from such attacks naturally couldn’t hurt him. Despite the case, he was still pushed back by a few hundred meters while his chest was feeling rather smothered.
He took a glance and was silently shocked by the splattering blood and flesh. If he was to be attacked by multiple individuals at the same time, he would be jolted to death even if he had the Fire Cloud Armor. Fortunately, he had the Thunder Fire and wasn’t afraid of getting surrounded while normal Heaven Monarchs wouldn’t even have the chance to surround him.
Swish!
The six Heaven Monarchs who had retreated earlier had all flew over like divine rainbows. They wouldn’t let such an opportunity slip away if they could beat up the already defeated. There was a long-standing rule in the history of group battles: apart from the cardinal and supreme treasures, whoever could get the opposition’s treasure would belong to that individual.
Jiang Yi didn’t move and stood proudly in mid-air.
Seeing everyone rushing over like vicious wolves, they formed up groups and started their slaughter. After experiencing countless battles, Jiang Yi’s heart was already cold. Let alone a few hundred individuals—even if 10,000 or 100,000 martial artists perished in front of him, he wouldn’t be soft-hearted.
“Surrender, we surrender! Chief Jiang… we willingly surrender and willingly pledge our allegiance to you!”
Bu He had been frightened. When he saw Yang Dong, Niu Deng, and the others pouncing over like ferocious tigers, he smelled the presence of death. He desperately resisted against the attacks from Yang Dong and two other Heaven Monarchs while pleading to Jiang Yi.
“That’s right, we surrender. Chief Jiang, we will be your dogs in the future. We will bite anyone that you want us to bite. As long as you spare our lives!”
“Chief Jiang, have mercy!”
Bu He roared out while his struggling subordinates roared up as well. If they didn’t surrender now, they would be completely wiped out. These mountain bandits were originally scoundrels. Let alone surrendering, they wouldn’t even hesitate to kneel if their lives could be spared.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Many eyes looked over at Jiang Yi. Niu Deng, Yang Dong, and the others also looked at Jiang Yi, waiting for his decision.
Jiang Yi paused for a moment, rubbed his nose, and spoke in a heavy voice, “I shall… consider it.”
“Pfff…”
Bu He and the others were all vomiting blood from the pressure. Jiang Yi was considering, but his subordinates didn’t do the same. They were attacking with more aggression, and in just two blinks of the eye, another four or five individuals would be slaughtered.
“Chief Jiang!”
Bu He burst out with a yell again. Jiang Yi’s face revealed a trace of hesitation as he slowly lifted his hand, but… he didn’t swing it down which would indicate for the attacks to stop.
“Ahh, Ahh, Ahh…”
Another five men were slaughtered. Bu He and the others were watching helplessly at Jiang Yi’s hand and nearly wanted to cry out. Jiang Yi was still considering, and his hand was still up there!
As time ticked by, Bu He and his men had waited for more than ten breaths while Jiang Yi had not come to a conclusion. They quickly understood that Jiang Yi was just duping them. He had never thought about sparing their lives and was purposely trying to disrupt everyone’s judgment and lowering their morale.
“Kill that bastard dog!”
Bu He let out an enraged roar and desperately struck out a silver light, forcing Yang Dong and the others to retreat while he rushed at Jiang Yi like a roaming dragon. There were seven Heaven Monarch experts who had prepared to sacrifice themselves and rushed at Jiang Yi without regards for themselves. Even if they had to die… they were going to bring Jiang Yi to the grave with them.
“Retreat!”
Niu Deng and the others took a glance and saw that Jiang Yi’s Fire Dragon Sword had silently appeared while the Fire Spirit Pearl was radiating with the red light. All their faces changed drastically as they burst in retreat. Yang Dong and the others might not understand what was happening, but they could instinctively feel the danger and had retreated with fear.
“Keke, are you treating this Chief as a soft persimmon? Do you think I am a pushover?”
Jiang Yi laughed lightly as he suddenly vanished from midair, appearing at the top left of the attackers in the next second. His Fire Spirit Pearl lit up with resplendent radiance as countless Thunder Fire poured out, causing the surrounding temperature to suddenly increase by hundreds of times. A dreadful heat wave engulfed everything in the surroundings.
