Jiang Yi wanted to chase that purple-haired maiden and asked her if she knew Yi Piaopiao and if she was related to her mother. However, when he was reminded of the speed of the ancient coffin, he realized that they should be five kilometers away right now, and so he closed his mouth, looking embarrassed.
Of course, it was mainly because that young lady’s words hurt his pride.

You don’t need to repay the favor. If you can reach the Heaven Monarch Realm, come to find me. I’ll confer you a bright future.


Maybe, it wasn’t the young lady’s intention, but she had a naturally condescending tone—as if a princess was talking to the common folk. Jiang Yi wanted to repay her favor, but she thought Jiang Yi—with his strength—couldn’t be any help to her. She also said that if Jiang Yi could reach the Heaven Monarch Realm, she would confer him a great future.

Confer!



This world hurt Jiang Yi badly. He never begged for anything from others. Everything he had was because of his effort. If he wanted anything, he would fight for it with his ability. He might risk his life, but he never relied on others’ pity and charity.
However, he didn’t resent this young lady. A person’s mentality changed in accordance with his status. She had such a powerful treasure and could wander around the Desolate East Sea as she pleased. Even a demon thearch couldn’t do anything to her. It went without saying that she came from an extraordinary background.
She kept saying ‘peak-stage demon thearch’ and ‘Heaven Monarch’. Without a doubt, her clan had a lot of Heaven Monarch martial experts. It was normal that she looked down on Jiang Yi, a cripple.
Jiang Yi might have some strange ability that interested that young lady, such as the unknown state that he entered in the Thunder Sea. Nonetheless, he was ultimately a cripple that had refined too many celestial stones and destroyed his own body. It was human nature that the young lady belittled him.
Jiang Yi also knew that he was a cripple without the Destitute Dragon Grass. He was unable to cultivate now. The essence force inside the third star sphere was already so overbearing. If he dared to cultivate the fourth star sphere, his body would definitely burst.
Therefore, other than comprehending sorcery skills and dao patterns, he couldn’t cultivate anything else. The room for his ability to improve was limited.
If Jiang Yi was the ruler of the Stellarsky Continent and went out for fun, and then he saved a peak-stage Soul Travel Realm martial expert—who had some unusual abilities but was cripple and probably had no hope of breaking through the Vajra Realm in his lifetime—along the way, would Jiang Yi take this martial expert back to the Stellarsky Continent?
Perhaps, Jiang Yi would also save this martial expert before he left him halfway on the road with the words:
If you can break through the Vajra Realm, you can find me on the Stellarsky Continent; and I will confer you a great future…

The logic was the same!
Therefore, Jiang Yi was not angered by this young lady. They were of different statuses and different states of mind, and so they spoke in different tones. This was the result of their discrepant strengths. It was a practical world.



Haha! Lady Yi, if I don’t reach the Heaven Monarch Realm, I won’t have the face to see you, too.

After pondering for a while, Jiang Yi let out a bitter smile. He stopped his thoughts and looked towards the east. The purple-haired young lady said that the Phoenix Cry Continent was in the front. He had to pull himself together.
It was his first time entering the Phoenix Cry Continent; what would happen? Were there any Heaven Monarch martial experts? Jiang Yi had no way to find out now, but he had to be extra careful and could never reveal his identity—as there were Martial Arts Hall branches on all the continents. Perhaps, all the Martial Arts Hall branches had received orders to search for him by now.

Let’s go!

He moved his legs and spread the divine senses to the front. While he was navigating the situation around him, he marched on the sea surface at the same time. He was about to reach the Phoenix Cry Continent and might run into enemies anytime, he had to be careful.
He didn’t dare to take the Yazi Beast with him or instant shift, those were his trademarks. Once he used them, it would easily invite suspicion. He also wore the Hundred Transformation Mask and changed his appearance.
After running for half a day, he began to see some small islands in front. The Phoenix Cry Continent was indeed not far away as only the shallow sea region had so many islands.
Swish!
Jiang Yi looked for everything in the surroundings. After making sure that there was nobody, he rushed onto an island.
The Thearch Palace flashed, and he released everyone. They were trapped in the Thearch Palace for almost one month and were super excited once they got out. Qian Wanguan even shrieked,
Boss, are you on the East Imperial Continent? So fast? It has been less than a month. Wow! It’s Qian Wanguan’s show time!



Pa!
Jiang Yi whacked the back of his head. Both annoyed and amused, he said,
We’re on the Phoenix Cry Continent, and we are on an island outside the continent. As for where the East Imperial Continent is, I still have no idea.


Young Master!

Jiang Xiaonu was slightly exasperated and whispered,
The Yazi Beast said that you were in danger, and the demon thearch was chasing after you. Why didn’t you let me out to fight with it together? And… how did you get rid of the demon thearch?

Since Jiang Yi could leisurely release the crowd, he was obviously no longer pursued by the demon thearch. The crowd knew his strength very well; it was impossible for him to kill the demon thearch.

It’s a long story…

Jiang Yi told them about the purple-haired young lady. Everyone looked at one another in a lingering fear. Their face grew grave as well. The outside world was indeed dangerous. Even Jiang Yi, with his powerful strength, might end up in a miserable death.

Alright, don’t overthink. I’ll catch two beasts first, and let’s have a good meal. Then we’ll rest on this island for one day. After which, you have to go into the Thearch Palace again. Until it is completely safe, I can’t let you guys out. I hope you can understand.

After finishing his sentence, Jiang Yi rushed to the center of the island. Everyone looked at one another and smiled bitterly. A sliver of dejected look even flickered by Zhan Wushuang’s eyes. His cultivation speed might be okay on the Stellarsky Continent, but he was only at the fifth stage of the Soul Travel Realm, rendering him unable to help Jiang Yi at all.
The crowd understood Jiang Yi’s arrangement. All they could do now was continuing to cultivate and striving to improve their strength so that they could help Jiang Yi in the future.


After a good meal, Jiang Yi suddenly took out a dagger and shaved all his red hair. Then he took a purple-gold earring from Yun Fei, pierced his left ear, and put on the earring. After that, he changed into a leather combat robe unique to the Heaven Mystics Kingdom. His appearance and bearing were so different that even Jiang Xiaonu almost couldn’t recognize him.

Cool! Handsome! Boss, you look so wild. Many girls will have to lose their hearts.

Qian Wanguan gave him a big thumbs-up. Zhan Wushuang and Yun Fei couldn’t help laughing in secret, but Jiang Xiaonu didn’t laugh. A flicker of obsession flashed by her eyes. To her, no matter how Jiang Yi dressed up, she would always like him.
Jiang Yi was nearly 18. He was almost six feet tall, with broad shoulders, thin waist, and long legs. He was neither too thin nor too fat. He had a nearly perfect physique.
He wasn’t considered to be very handsome, but he had masculine features. Most importantly, he had been through too many things and killed too many people. He once led one million troops and stood on the peak of the continent.
As one ascended in rank, his bearing would become better as well!
Jiang Yi let out an aura of a ruler from all his behaviors. His eyes were sharp and astute. He had an unusual and virile character. His teenage body possessed the charisma of a mature man, which was contradictory and outstanding as well. He was far better than those pretty boys who depended on their clans. Indeed, Jiang Yi was a magnet for girls.

Alright, everyone, rest now. I’ll march to the Phoenix Cry Continent tomorrow and look for information on the East Imperial Continent.

From the crowd’s reaction, Jiang Yi knew that his camouflage was successful. People who were familiar with him could barely recognize him, and so he would be safer on the Phoenix Cry Continent. At least, he wouldn’t be spotted by the Martial Arts Hall men at first glance.
