You don’t know about the Martial Arts Hall?

After Jiang Yi had explained about the situation of the Martial Arts Hall in detail, Feng Luan’s eyes flashed with chilling light as she quickly spoke,
The faction that Master is talking about, might be similar to a merchant association on the continent. However, this association has a long history and has always been low-key. They never contend for power and simply did businesses. It seems like they never had conflicts with other clans and are in good terms with many clans. Maybe that’s why we didn’t pay much attention to them. Oh right… their name seems to be Martial Union Merchant Association.


Martial Union Merchant Association!

Jiang Yi laughed sarcastically. Wasn’t the Martial Arts Hall just a merchant association on the Stellarsky Continent as well? Let alone the smaller-scaled clans, even those major clans didn’t know of the Martial Arts Hall’s true identity. They had always concealed themselves very well and didn’t go contending for power. They were the uncrowned king of the continent.
However, the Martial Arts Hall on the Phoenix Cry Continent was a little strange. They might be very low-key on the Stellarsky Continent, but all the kingdom’s rulers knew that the Martial Arts Hall was very formidable. Over here, not even the ruler of the continent knew about their hidden strength.


Forget about them!

He might have subdued a Heaven Monarch soul slave, but Jiang Yi didn’t want to immediately and rashly raze all the Martial Arts Branch Hall. What he needed right now was to find a way to obtain the Destitute Dragon Grass, to search for Yu Wen on the East Imperial Continent, and to look out for information about Su Ruoxue. As for taking revenge on the Martial Arts Hall, his current strength would be like a mantis going against a truck—it was far from enough.

Destitute Dragon Grass. Feng’er, do you know where to find the Destitute Dragon Grass?
Jiang Yi turned around to ask again, but he didn’t expect much.
Feng Luan blinked her eyes and shook her head as expected.
The Destitute Dragon Grass is a cardinal treasure of heaven and earth. Feng’er did hear of it, but as soon as it appears, it would be immediately fought over by those major clans. It will be harder to obtain it than ascending to heaven.


Sigh…

Jiang Yi sighed and stared blankly at the map of East Imperial Continent, thinking of when he should go there.

Master!

A shy voice echoed, and Jiang Yi lifted his head to see Feng Luan looking at him with a miserable face. She was biting on her lips and seemingly wanted to say something but didn’t dare to.

What’s wrong, Feng’er?

Jiang Yi lifted his brows and turned around. Feng Luan’s eyes revealed a trace of determination as she suddenly walked in front of Jiang Yi and knelt down.
Master, are you thinking of going to the East Imperial Continent?



Jiang Yi knitted his brows and nodded.
Yes? What about it?

Feng Luan bowed deeply and gave three bows before she clenched her teeth and said,
Could Master delay the departure for the East Imperial Continent? Phoenix Cry Continent is going through a calamity. If Feng’er is to leave now, the continent would be decimated; and all the citizens would perish. Feng’er earnest request for Master to give her some time. Once the calamity is over, Feng’er will serve as Master’s attendant willingly. Even if Master was to break the ten-year promise he mentioned earlier, Feng’er wouldn’t have any complaints.


Uh?

Jiang Yi understood a little, and before he could even think about it, the recuperating Qing Yu had opened her eyes and walked over quickly. She knelt down beside Feng Luan and bowed deeply, earnestly requesting as well.
Will Master please be merciful. Both Qing Yu and Thearch would be grateful for your kindness, and they will not forget it for their entire life. The citizens of the Phoenix Cry Continent would also be eternally grateful.

It seemed like Qing Yu had already awakened, but she was pretending to recuperate. When she heard about Feng Luan’s request, she naturally came and requested earnestly as well.
In fact…!
The two of them were having a sullen expression. One of them was the dictator of the continent, and the other was one of the 15 martial experts. It was their obligation to resist against the Merman Race’s attacks. Hence, their hearts couldn’t just abandon the continent.
Right now, the two of them were Jiang Yi’s slaves. One of them was a soul slave, and the other was a slave that had offered her soul seal—which made her almost a soul slave as well. If Jiang Yi was to forcefully bring them away, the two of them would have to leave with agony. They didn’t dare to disobey Jiang Yi’s orders, and so they were pleading Jiang Yi to be merciful.
Jiang Yi muttered to himself and was in a dilemma.
Rationally, he should immediately depart. The Phoenix Cry Continent was too dangerous, and he didn’t know if he could survive if he stayed behind. Feng Luan and Qing Yu had a high possibility of dying in this place as well. If the two of them were dead, then it would be a great loss. Furthermore, there was a large possibility of getting discovered by the Martial Arts Hall.


Feng Luan and Qing Yu were currently his people, and he didn’t feel good to see them suffering in their hearts. He had already forgiven the fact that Qing Yu tortured him and Feng Luan wanted to refine him into a soul slave. It was simply a difference in opinions and principles. They didn’t do anything wrong, and they ultimately didn’t cause any huge losses for him.
Besides, if the two of them were to leave, the Phoenix Cry Continent would definitely be cleansed with blood and would be eradicated. The millions of citizens would be slaughtered and dismembered by the Merman Race. The entire Phoenix Cry Continent would be turned into an Asura Hell.
Jiang Yi would then be the main culprit that caused this calamity; the Lion Chi Thearch had come because of him. He would then be destined to carry this debt of blood for the rest of his life.

You and I both belong to the human race. When you are hunted by the demon clan—out of humanitarian concerns, I should save you.


Jiang Yi suddenly recalled about the purple-haired young lady’s statement and felt a shiver in his heart. That young lady, who had nothing to do with him, had actually rescued him just because they were both of the human race and out of humanitarian concerns.
Now that the demon race was about the ravage the Phoenix Cry Continent and kill his human race’s comrades, how could he just look on and do nothing? How could he even think of taking away the strongest combatants on the Phoenix Cry Continent?
He suddenly stood up and said in a serious voice,
Alright! I promise you. That ten years promise is still in effect. If possible, I will even help you kill all the demon race’s experts.


Ah?

Feng Luan and Qing Yu looked at each other. Their faces were filled with astonishment that quickly turned into ecstasy. They weren’t certain that they could resist against the Merman Race’s army, and it was the best decision for Jiang Yi to bring them away—as staying behind would be a foolish behavior.
Now that Jiang Yi had actually agreed, he even maintained that ten-year promise with them. He was also going to help them fight against the demon race?


The two of them were looking at Jiang Yi with different eyes. They had looked down upon on men from a young age and assumed that all men were cowards, useless people without a trace of bravery. Now seeing how Jiang Yi was behaving, they had a new definition towards men in their hearts.
This man was truly different from the other men on their continent. This was a true man, a man with an indomitable spirit!
Jiang Yi didn’t know about the changes in their hearts as he simply waved his hand and said,
Get up. In the future, don’t just kneel so casually. I do not have so many rules and don’t call me Master as well. On the outside, I am your male pet. When no one else is around, you can call me Jiang Yi or Young Master.


En!

The two of them stood up. Jiang Yi stayed silent for a moment and spoke to Feng Luan,
Feng’er, you continue your work. Go and arrange how you are going to resist against the demon race’s army and how to fight the war. It will not be good for me to interfere or show up. If the enemy’s demon emperor makes a move, just inform me; and I will adapt and assist you accordingly.


Okay, Mas… Young Master, please rest here first. Feng’er will go and make arrangements!

Feng Luan walked out with light steps. All the resentment, bewilderment, and agony that she originally had were all much more relieved right now.
Jiang Yi had promised to stay and resist against this calamity. She might perish in this battle, but it didn’t matter if she had to die—it didn’t matter if she was a soul slave either. The puzzle in her heart had been solved.
If Jiang Yi didn’t interfere in her freedom or operations, then everything was the same to her. She had no time to accompany Jiang Yi either as she might have many things to do. She had to lead the citizens of the Phoenix Cry Continent and fight to the death with the demon race.
Buzz!


The restriction in the palace was released. When the Phoenix Cry Thearch walked out of the castle, she looked at the clear blue sky; and the countless soldiers and subordinates before the sky. She had a feeling that she had just passed a lifetime. She went from heaven to hell… and from hell back to heaven. Was she going to fall from heaven again and back into hell?
She didn’t know!
She just knew that from today onward… she didn’t belong to herself. She belonged to a man named Jiang Yi.
