Dugu Qiu and the others had actually fled without any indications? It was when Stellarsky City’s barrier was still up? Of course, this barrier was activated by them, and so he couldn’t have known what other tricks they could use it for.

Jiang Yi’s senses were very acute. If Dugu Qiu and the others were able to slip away, they must have escaped underground or through teleportation. Anyway, other methods wouldn’t have been missed by Jiang Yi.

There weren’t any signs of activity underground, and there should be traces of teleportation in the spatial zone, right?

What went wrong?

Jiang Yi couldn’t have known. He scanned every inch of the interior of the Martial Arts Branch Hall again and again. After scanning so many times, there was no result; there wasn’t even a trace. There wasn’t any altar for a teleportation array in the Martial Arts Branch Hall.

Jiang Yi spread out his divine senses and searched the entire city. After scanning three kilometers of surface, he still couldn’t find anything. Dugu Qiu and a few hundred individuals had vanished without a trace.

Buzz!

The Thearch Palace appeared in Jiang Yi’s hand again which expanded rapidly. He withdrew his Massacre Intent and released Grandma Silver Flower and the others out from the palace.

Wow!

Grandma Silver Flower and the others were anxious and on edge while they were inside the Thearch Palace. After they appeared on the city plaza, they all instantly poured out all their essence force and got ready for a desperate attack. However, they were all astonished after they took a look around. Especially when they saw countless demon kings’ corpses which caused them to be extremely shocked.

Jiang Yi was still alive? Dugu Qiu and the others were missing? The hundred demon kings had been turned into dead bodies? There were patches of charring marks, and it was obvious they were charred marks from the incineration of flames.

Jiang Yi won?

After being in shock for a short moment, everyone instantly revealed exalted expressions. Even the Yazi Beast’s giant eyes were filled with a pleasant surprise. The certain death situation had been resolved. Was there anyone else in this world who could stop Jiang from advancing?

“Don’t ask so much. I will explain when we return. The Chief Hall Master and Ji Tingyu had mysteriously vanished from the branch hall. All of you do a detailed search and look out for clues. At the same time, go and incorporate the alliance army into our army. Those who don’t surrender shall be killed without exception. Kill all the Ling clansmen and find the location of the Martial Arts Main Hall at all costs. Go and find out how did the Chief Hall Master actually vanished.”

Jiang Yi’s serious speech caused everyone’s heart to sink. Grandma Silver Flower exchanged eye contact with the Yazi Beast and flew mid-air. Grandma Silver Flower looked at the few-hundred-thousand-strong alliance army at the east side of the city and shouted, “The Regent has spoken. Those who do not surrender shall be killed. Those who are willing to surrender shall kneel right now!”

Thud, Thud…

Many soldiers, who were originally standing, had all knelt down and nearly wanted to cry. They thought that they were going to die for sure, but Jiang Yi actually spared them? Those who didn’t surrender must be idiots.

Sha Di had been killed, Xiao Longwang had fled, and Ling Xue had committed suicide. The Chief Hall Master who was so mighty and had released a hundred demon kings. Wasn’t he still chased away by Jiang Yi like a dog?

No one desired to die, and the alliance army’s morale had already been routed. They were all thanking heavens that they were now being spared.

None of the alliance army’s soldiers remained standing, and all had surrendered. The rest of the matters were settled easily. Old General Lu, Jiang Rentu, and the others led the countless generals and commanders to go take in the surrendered army. They began to interrogate for intelligence and scout out for information.

Grandma Silver Flower, the Yazi Beast, and some peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts all started to break the barrier.

Everyone did a check and noticed there were a few hidden cornerstone arrays three kilometers in the ground. After these cornerstones were destroyed, the barrier quickly vanished.

Jiang Yi entered the Thearch Palace and waited for two hours. There wasn’t any report with information. He was rather restless from all the sitting and flew out of the Thearch Palace with lightning speed. He looked at Zhan Yiming and said, “Uncle Zhan, split the army and teleport to Monarch City, Summer Rain City, and Saint Light City. Attack all the Martial Arts Branch Halls for me. Send a clansman who knows how to use the Soul-Searching Art to every city and do whatever you can to find the location of the Martial Arts Main Hall as fast as possible. Jiang Rentu, deploy the rest of the army and raze all the other Martial Arts Branch halls in the continent.”

The Martial Arts Hall had been in existence since the continent was here. After so many years, the Martial Arts Hall was still the no.1 merchant association in the continent. What did it mean?

It meant that the Martial Arts Hall had a strict secrecy regulation, and all information regarding the Martial Arts Hall must never be leaked out. Not even Qian Gui, Grandma Silver Flower, and the others knew where the Martial Arts Main Hall was located. How would regular individuals know where was it?

Interrogating the surrendered army was useless. Right now, the only way was to look for the Martial Arts Branch Hall Masters and use the Soul-Searching Art on them. In the entire continent, it was probable that only the Branch Hall Masters would know where the Martial Arts Main Hall was located.

“Alright!”

Zhan Yiming summoned eight clansmen and allocated them into the teleportation arrays that were headed towards Summer Rain City, Monarch City, and Saint Light City. With the armies stationed in the cities, taking down the branch halls was nothing difficult.

Buzz!

Many of the teleportation arrays lit up while Jiang Rentu started to allocate his subordinates to teleport and scatter them to the Divine Martial Kingdom, Great Xia Kingdom, and the Saint Spirit Kingdom. They were going to take down the branch halls one after another.

They might not know how Jiang Yi won the battle, but a win was a win. Dugu Qiu and the others had fled, and no one else was a match for Jiang Yi in the entire continent. If Jiang Yi wanted to raze Martial Arts Hall, Jiang Rentu naturally didn’t dare to go against his will.

Jiang Yi returned to the Thearch Palace again to wait for news. Jiang Rentu had incorporated the surrendered troops, treated the casualties, buried the corpses, and looked for the remnants of the Azure Dragon Empire’s imperial clansmen. They were all extremely busy.

Half a day later, the teleportation arrays lit up which caused tension in the city. When they saw that it was Zhan Yiming, they all felt relief while their eyes lit up. Could they have found the Martial Arts Main Hall?

Buzz!

The Thearch Palace lit up, and Zhan Yiming suddenly vanished from where he stood and entered the Thearch Palace which was in mid-air. Jiang Yi looked at him with nervous eyes while the latter let out a bitter smile. “Nephew, when we led the men to Monarch City, Summer Rain City, and Saint Light City, all the three Branch Hall Masters had already committed suicide. For the rest of the members, I have ordered to search their soul; but we couldn’t find a hint of information on the Main Hall…”

Ji Tingyu, you are indeed incredible.

Jiang Yi sighed in his heart. Perhaps only Ji Tingyu could have such a fast response. Dugu Qiu was formidable and a powerful leader, but he wouldn’t be able to have such a thorough plan. Furthermore, he was probably frightened stiff earlier, right?

Trouble!

Jiang Yi knitted his brows. This was the perfect moment for them to exterminate the Martial Arts Hall. If they couldn’t find the Martial Arts Main Hall, Dugu Qiu and the others would be able to regroup themselves. With Ji Tingyu’s brilliant mind, she would quickly plot of something else as Su Ruoxue and the others were still in their hands.

“Nephew, what should we do now?”

Zhan Yiming was at wits’ end and had no choice but to wait for orders from Jiang Yi. Zhan Wushuang had also been captured, and this son was his favorite. Most importantly, if Zhan Wushuang was to perish, the Zhan Clan and Jiang Yi’s relationship would naturally drift apart.

“There are two ways!”

Jiang Yi’s eyes flickered as he spoke with a deep tone, “Uncle Zhan. Find a way to immediately transmit a message to Hostess Shui. She might know where the Martial Arts Main Hall is located. Do it discreetly as Hostess Shui doesn’t only represent herself. She has to consider the tens of thousands of disciples in the Water Moon Observatory.”

Zhan Yiming nodded and went out. Jiang Yi started to use his second way, which was to release the Divine Perception sorcery art!

This was a powerful sorcery art, which could extend the range of the divine senses limitlessly. Back when the Witch God used the Divine Perception, he could effortlessly scout the entire continent and even discovered the Sea of Death. Jiang Yi’s soul spirit wasn’t comparable to the Witch God, but he was still able to scout half the continent, right?”
