Sigh, Sigh…
In a luxurious courtyard within Mt. Spirit Beast College, Qian Wanguan was holding onto a cup of tea and constantly sighing. The Qian Clan had evacuated all of their merchant associations from the Great Xia Kingdom, and they might have suffered quite a bit of loss, but it was still within the acceptable range. With the start of the war, their Qian Clan would be able to reap profits of the war so he wasn’t frustrated about it.
He was worried about Su Ruoxue. If Jiang Yi got to know that Su Ruoxue was dead afterward, he didn’t dare to imagine how furious Jiang Yi would be.
Bang!
Right at this moment, someone suddenly kicked open the courtyard door. Qian Wanguan looked over, which caused his eyes to shrink as he knew it wasn’t going to be good. His plump body quickly stood up as he forced out a smile and said,
Boss, why—why are you back?
Hmph!
Jiang Yi snorted and had a dark expression. He stared at Qian Wanguan and yelled out furiously,
Why didn’t you or the Principal send a message to inform me about such a huge incident? Is Ruoxue still in Summer Rain City?
Qian Wanguan’s lips were shaking as he replied,
Boss, this matter is already determined. Please do not be impulsive, or else…
Shut your nonsense!
Jiang Yi waved his hand and interrupted Qian Wanguan as he spoke coldly,
I am asking you if Su Ruoxue is still in Summer Rain City? Yes or no?
Qian Wanguan’s expression dimmed down as he gritted his teeth and replied,
Yes! I have sent someone to fetch her back to the college, but she said that if the Great Xia Kingdom is extinguished, she will not survive by herself so…
Swish!
Before Qian Wanguan could even finish, Jiang Yi already turned to run out of the college and only left a statement.
Xiaonu, you stay well in the college.
Boss!
Young Master!
Qian Wanguan and Jiang Xiaonu exclaimed at the same time. Even though Jiang Xiaonu didn’t know what happened, she knew it was something huge. She looked at Qian Wanguan and spoke nervously,
Big Brother Qian, where is my Young Master going?
Where? Boss is going to rescue someone in Summer Rain City. He is preparing to go against an army that has millions of soldiers. He is going to throw his life away!
Qian Wanguan’s expression was gloomy and imperative. He gritted his teeth to explain, and he couldn’t care about Xiaonu anymore. His fat body quickly rushed towards Zhuge Qingyun’s courtyard. He knew that right now, only Zhuge Qingyun was able to stop Jiang Yi’s foolish behavior.
What? Young Master is going to throw his life away?
Jiang Xiaonu was frightened as her petite body convulsed. She turned around and actually ignored Jiang Yunhai who just walked out of the inner hall. She ran out of the college and quickly gave chase.
It was just that…
How could Jiang Xiaonu catch up when Jiang Yi’s speed was so fast? Once she rushed out of the college, Jiang Yi was already gone without a trace.
What should I do? What should I do?
Jiang Xiaonu was now feeling like an ant on a hot pan and was extremely anxious. She looked around, and her eyes quickly lit up as she actually ran down Mt. Spirit Beast.
She didn’t have a hint of strength, and it would probably take her a day or two just to walk down this precipitous mountain road. Furthermore, there were also demonic beasts within the mountains; but she still used all her strength to hurry down the mountain.
Fortunately, she was rather lucky to actually encounter a patrol team soon. She panted and yelled out,
Can I trouble you esteemed Lords to bring me over to Mt. Black Clouds? I have something urgent to do.
Jiang Xiaonu?
The members of the patrol team did recognize Jiang Xiaonu as Jiang Yi was too famous in the college; who wouldn’t know about her? Right now, even Jiang Xiaonu and Jiang Yunhai were famous individuals. When the patrol team saw Jiang Xiaonu descending the mountain by herself, they all were frightened as they quickly came over.
Xiaonu ran so much and was gasping for air. She placed her hands on her hips and said,
Hurry, bring me to Mt. Black Clouds; if not, it will be too late.
Alright!
The patrol team didn’t know what happened, but how could they reject such a small request from Jiang Xiaonu? A formidable team leader who was at the peak stage of Purple Mansion Realm carried Jiang Xiaonu and made haste towards Mt. Black Clouds.
With the peak-stage Purple Mansion Realm team leader carrying her, Jiang Xiaonu’s speed increased drastically and just took four hours to arrive at the Mt. Black Clouds. Once at the foot of Mt. Black Clouds, the team leader stopped and had this expression of fear. He could feel the extremely formidable demonic beast presence; he was afraid that once he went up, he wouldn’t even have a corpse left.
Pong! Pong!
He didn’t go up, but the Demon King on the mountain could feel Jiang Xiaonu’s presence and quickly came over. The little fox, which was sitting on the Demon King’s shoulder, called out to Jiang Xiaonu from far away. There was some suspicion in its jewel-like eyes as it couldn’t understand why Jiang Xiaonu was back so quickly? And she was with another human?
Xiao Fei! Xiao Fei!
Jiang Xiaonu quickly left the team leader and went up the mountain. The Demon King extended its giant palm and picked Jiang Xiaonu up, putting her on its shoulder. The college’s team leader finally let out a breath of relief as he immediately ran and crawled away.
Xiao Fei, Young Master went to Summer Rain City to rescue someone. I heard that the Azure Dragon Empire and the armies from the five kingdoms are surrounding and attacking the Great Xia Kingdom. Big Brother Qian said that Young Master is going against them all alone and is going to throw his life away! What should I do?
Jiang Xiaonu spoke with a sobbing tone to the little fox. She really didn’t know what to do in such a huge incident and wasn’t able to offer any assistance either. She had no choice but to look for the demon race’s little princess and asked for its help.
Ji-Ji!
The little fox was at its wits’ end too. It called out a few times and turned to swiftly order the Demon King, asking it to bring them back to Fairy Peak.
She couldn’t exit Mt. Thirty Thousand; she was weak as well. The only thing she could do was to ask the Demon Empress for help. If the Demon Empress didn’t come out from seclusion or wasn’t willing to help, then they could only look on helplessly as Jiang Yi threw his life away.
…
Fool!
In the inner courtyard of Mt. Spirit Beast College—after Zhuge Qingyun listened to Qian Wanguan’s report, he immediately used his divine senses to search for Jiang Yi. After scanning the entire surroundings of the college, he actually couldn’t find Jiang Yi? Afterward, he realized something and quickly scanned underground before he finally noticed that Jiang Yi was riding on the Zouwu Beast and was headed south in a frenzy.
He sent a message for Jiang Yi to return, but Jiang Yi totally ignored it and continued making haste through the Zouwu Beast. Soon enough, Jiang Yi was beyond the range of Zhuge Qingyun’s divine senses.
Fool, fool!
Zhuge Qingyun was seldom angry for over more than a decade, but he was extremely furious now. Jiang Yi was a youth that he placed high regards for, and he wasn’t joking when he wanted to give Jiang Yi the role of a Vice Principal. In fact… he knew about the secret in Jiang Yi’s dantian a long time ago.
His life was coming to an end, and among all the Vice Principals of Mt. Spirit Beast College, no one had an opportunity to break through to the Vajra Realm. Right now that continent was in a state of chaos and with the war, the power balance was about to change. It was fine if he wasn’t dead yet, but what if he was? The Mt. Spirit Beast College would be like a fat piece of meat without any martial expert to guard it, and it would surely be engulfed by the various influential forces.
Jiang Yi was a successor that he was preparing to nurture, and this successor was actually risking his life for a woman and was preparing to go against the entire continent. How foolish was this? For this operation, the Mt. Spirit Beast College already sent out an announcement stating they agreed to it.
Regular people would never dare to touch Jiang Yi who had the backing of the Demon Empress!
The problem was… what were the current circumstances again? If Jiang Yi dared to go to Summer Rain City and go against the giant army, he would surely be oppressed and crushed into pieces. The united assault of the Azure Dragon Empire and the five kingdoms would never return without any achievements. The Great Xia Kingdom must be extinguished; otherwise, the Azure Dragon Empire and the various vassal kingdoms would lose their reputation and prestige.
This was an internal conflict among the humans, and if the Demon Empress didn’t want to break off all relations with the human race, she would never interfere. Jiang Yi’s trip was definitely… a trip of no return.
Forget it, forget it!
After a period of time, Zhuge Qingyun let out a deep sigh and suddenly yelled out,
Principal Qi! Gather all the Vice Principals, and you shall oversee the college. This old man will bring them for a trip to Summer Rain City. It has been over a decade, and it is time for my old bones to move a little. Otherwise, the continent is going to forget about the Bloodthirsty Dictator, Zhuge Qingyun…
