Chapter 1341: Lord Xiao Di

Gu Mu calmly let out a burst of heavenly powers and used his mystical abilities to seal up Luo Qingyan’s dantian. Without her heavenly powers, Luo Qingyan could not do anything. Her soul spirit was not strong; even if she knew spiritual attacks, Jiang Yi was not afraid. The Nameless Divine Art’s little characters in Xiaozhuan shocked even someone as powerful as Gu Mu.

Luo Qingyan was very cooperative. As she walked out, Jiang Yi and Gu Mu followed closely behind her. There was about a meter and a half between them. Both men watched the God Kings closely, for fear that they would spring a sudden attack on them. What relieved Jiang Yi was that none of these God Kings tried to spring anything on them. Instead, they watched silently as the three of them walked out.

Once they were out of the backyard, Jiang Yi heaved a sigh of relief. The God Kings in the front yard had already received news from the peak-stage God King earlier. Thus, none of them dared to come out. The other people in the residence were left completely unaware. Jiang Yi and Gu Mu followed Luo Qingyan, walking out of the Luo Residence proudly.

Out of Luo Qingyan’s interspatial ring came an elegant battle chariot. Interspatial rings in the Higher Domain were nothing like the Ancient Divine Essence Ring in Stellarsky Domain. No heavenly powers were needed here whatsoever. Just a single thought could allow them to retrieve items from their interspatial rings. She turned to Jiang Yi and said, “I am well-respected here. If we walk out, people will be suspicious. Come with me into the war chariot. Act as my guard.”

“Hmph!”

Jiang Yi tutted. Afraid that Luo Qingyan would pull a trick on him, he pulled her onto the war chariot. Under Luo Qingyan’s instructions, the restrictions around the war chariot were activated. Then, they headed towards the city plaza. Gu Mu followed closely behind them.

“Master, Luo Hen is following us. He is a mid-tier God King!”

Gu Mu sent a voice transmission to Jiang Yi who nodded, satisfied. A white flash appeared around his body, turning him into one of the Luo Clan’s guards. Luo Qingyan was afraid that the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan would find out about her being taken hostage, but what she did not know was that Jiang Yi was equally afraid.

If the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan knew about this, they would cast aside all inhibitions and hunt them down. Even if he had Luo Qingyan in his hands, there would be big trouble. Thus, he turned into one of the guards from the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan and boarded the war chariot with Luo Qingyan in order to avoid raising suspicions.

Once Jiang Yi and company left, the God Kings in the front yard rushed to the back. They looked anxiously at the peak-stage God King, their sixth elder. City Lord Luo was not around so they were acting without their backbone. Now that Luo Qingyan had been taken hostage, they were panicking. Just thinking about the rage that City Lord Luo would fly in made the hairs on the back of their necks stand.

“This brat is only a Heaven-God ant. Why does he possess such frightening flames?”

“How did he take control of Gu Mu? Gu Mu is an upper-tier God King!”

“Gu Mu is a traitor. This coward even became the soul slave of a Heaven God martial artist? I knew that this man could not be trusted…”

“It’s a pity… we don’t know any strong spiritual attacks, or we could kill that brat in an instant.”

“…”

A group of God Kings kept discussing what happened. Many other people felt frustrated, too. Sixth Elder kept silent the entire time, watching as the rest spoke non-stop. Suddenly, he shouted angrily, “Everyone, shut up!”

Everybody stopped talking at once, not daring to speak up once again. They did not want to give Sixth Elder an opportunity to take his anger out on them. After keeping silent for a while, Sixth Elder gave orders: “Luo Jiayin, tell the Clan Head everything that had happened in full detail at once. Ask him to get Lord Xiao Di in Blue Eagle Prefecture to act in secret. If Lord Xiao Di is willing to act, he can kill both that brat and Gu Mu in an instant.”

“Lord Xiao Di?”

The eyes of countless God Kings lit up. This was one of the top ten people in Blue Eagle Prefecture, a God Thearch. He was also one of the two formidable martial artists with the strongest soul spirits in Blue Eagle Prefecture. If he helped them kill Jiang Yi and Gu Mu quietly, Luo Qingyan would be safe. If anyone else did the job, they would not feel as confident.

City Lord Luo’s father was once a respected slave of the Blue Eagle Prefecture’s Prefecture Lord Xiao Hong. He was in charge of managing the latter’s home affairs, and his relationship with the Xiao Clan was very good. Thus, in later years, they allowed him to become the City Lord of Divine Eagle City. Xiao Di was Xiao Hong’s disciple and the third most powerful man in the Xiao Clan. Most importantly, Luo Qingyan’s fiance was Xiao Di’s grandson.

“Also!”

Sixth Elder raised his voice once again. “Send a message to Luo Hen; ask him to follow them closely. Keep a thirty-kilometer distance from them at all times, and don’t lose them. Young Mistress’ Bodhi fruits contain Ecstasy Powder. If Young Mistress uses it and signals that she wants to rescue herself, he is to cooperate with her immediately.”

“Ecstasy Powder?”

Everyone was astonished when they heard this. A realization dawned on them!

Not long ago, a batch of Bodhi fruit was delivered. Luo Qingyan already took a thousand fruits for herself back then, and yet she still asked Sixth Elder for more fruits just before she left. The group was slightly confused earlier, but now, it was clear that she was speaking cryptically. At a time like this, Luo Qingyan could still think about a way to rescue herself and prepare logistics for that to happen. This Young Mistress was intelligent indeed.

“Everyone else, don’t move about. Lock down Luo Residence, and get the higher-ranking members in Earth Emanations Pavilion to stay in as much as possible. Prioritize rescuing Young Mistress.”

Sixth Elder gave more orders. Although he wanted badly to go after them, he did not dare to take the risk. If Jiang Yi found out and killed Luo Qingyan, everything would be finished. What’s more, Luo Ting was already dead. If the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan found out what the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan had done and if both the City Lord and him were gone by then, the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan would perish for sure!

…

“Gu Mu, take this painting and bring my friend here. He lives at my residence. He will follow you if you show him this painting!”

The chariot moved slowly. Jiang Yi suddenly opened the restrictions around it and sent a painting out. This was a Heaven Painting that he created personally. It depicted the Endless Deep Sea and Ao Lu. If the Black Deity saw this, he would understand that Jiang Yi drew this himself.

At first, Jiang Yi was not prepared to bring Black Deity along with him. After all, he was not that confident. He was afraid that he would only be bringing Black Deity to die with him.

Now, the tables seemed to have turned. Luo Qingyan could bring him out of Blue Eagle Prefecture. Once they were out of Blue Eagle Prefecture—no matter how powerful the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan and Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan’s skills were, they would not be allowed to kill him in another city. This was the reason why Jiang Yi changed his mind. Since his chances of survival increased, how could he leave Black Deity behind? If he left just like that and the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan took their anger out on Black Deity, there were a hundred and one ways they would be able to torture him.

Gu Mu dared not defy Jiang Yi’s orders. At once, he left. Luo Qingyan sent a voice transmission to Jiang Yi and said, “Jiang Yi, you’re taking a huge risk by doing this. The Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan has spies around the area where you live. If Gu Mu takes your friend with him, and I teleport out of here as well, the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan will become suspicious for sure. Then, they might send people to hunt you down and kill you, without any regard for whether I am your hostage or not…”

“Shut up!”

Jiang Yi activated the chariot’s restrictions once more and scanned Luo Qingyan from head to toe coolly. “I couldn’t care less about this. If you talk more nonsense, I might just r*pe you!”

“…”

Luo Qingyan saw the look in Jiang Yi’s eyes like a wolf looking at his prey. Her beautiful body trembled. She did not dare to provoke Jiang Yi anymore. This was a mad dog. If she pushed him too hard, he would be capable of anything.

Gu Mu traveled very quickly. In just ten minutes, he brought Black Deity with him to the city plaza, where Jiang Yi and Luo Qingyan were.

Buzz!

Luo Qingyan got off the war chariot and kept it in her ring. Jiang Yi stood beside her, expressionless. There was a group of God-General Earth Emanations soldiers there, along with a God King commander. All of them got to their knees and said, “Greetings, Young Mistress.”

Black Deity exchanged a look with Jiang Yi, and the former stared. He did not see through Jiang Yi’s disguise at first, but the look in his eyes was all too familiar. He felt some doubts initially, but seeing the look in Jiang Yi’s eyes now, he had no hesitations about following them.

Luo Qingyan stood right in front. A black-gold command token appeared in her hand. In a cool tone, she said, “Activate the Teleportation Formation. I have an urgent matter to see Father about. I want to go to Divine Fire City.”

“Understood!”

The group of Earth Emanations soldiers was slightly surprised, but none of them dared to say a thing. Immediately, they activated the Earth Emanations Army. The group disappeared within it.
