Chapter 736: Go to the Sky Thunder City to Catch Him

Swish! Swish! Swish!

On the third day that Jiang Yi and his group left—outside the largest black market Red Sun Merchant Association stationed point, about 500 martial experts flew over. They were all Heaven Monarch Realm martial experts. Two of them, who led the group, had auras like the sun in the sky, terrible to the extreme. The guards in the castle were startled when they were still far away.

Swish! Swish!

Legions of guards flew from the city. One of the housekeepers of the castle, the upper-tier Heaven Monarch Hong Mo, led people to fly to the sky. He swept around and let out a bitter smile. Cupping his hand, he said, “It turns out to be my friends from the Hong Clan and the Li Clan. Why are two lords bringing so many people to the Red Fort?”

“Hmph!”

One gray-haired old man sneered and said coldly, “Hong Mo, our eldest Young Master and Young Master Li were killed in your territory, but you turned a blind eye to it?! If you can’t give us an explanation, your Red Fort can stop running.”

“Hahaha!”

Hong Mo laughed and said, “Are you Hong Yi? I’ve long heard that your Hong Clan is very overbearing, and I witness it by myself together. What do you mean by our territory? If Hong Mu was killed in the Red Fort, our Red Sun Merchant Association would be responsible. However, the place that the fight broke out was several hundred kilometers away. Is our merchant association blamed for Hong Mu being killed outside the city? If you really want to look for trouble, just say it clearly. When is the Red Sun Merchant Association afraid of troubles?”

“You!”

A man behind Hong Yi was about to shower abuse; the rest were surging with killing auras. If the Red Sun Merchant Association wasn’t so famous, they would probably start the fight a long time ago.

Hong Yi raised his hand and gestured the crowd to calm down. He shouted, “We are not looking for trouble. Before we came, our Clan Heads told us that they went a long way back with your merchant association’s president. As long as you help us to catch the murderer, we’ll let this chapter pass; and we’ll still be friends.”

Hong Mo cupped fists and said, “Sorry, this didn’t happen in the Red Fort, and we won’t lead any information on your guests. This is the rule of the merchant association so please investigate this matter by yourselves.”

Hong Mo took a very uncompromising stand. Of course, it was because they had a lot of guests in the castle; the Red Sun Merchant Association couldn’t possibly ruin its own brand. If they casually sold their guests’ information, who would dare to do business with the Red Sun Merchant Association and stay here in the future?

Swish!

When Hong Yi was just about to say something, a low-tier Heaven Monarch shot out from the castle, who cupped his fists and shouted from a distance, “Lord Yi, we’ve got something.”

Hong Yi gave the faraway Hong Mo a look. His clansmen were able to get the information so quickly. Clearly, Hong Mo helped them in secret, but he didn’t point it out and asked the man, “Who is the murderer? Where’s he now?’

The spy didn’t say anything. Instead, he sent a voice transmission: “The killer is Lone Wolf, commonly known as Chief Jiang. He stays in the Sky Thunder City. Two days ago, he left in the Heaven Fate Ship and should be arriving at the Sky Thunder City now. He is the leader of the slaves in the Sky Thunder City.”

“Slaves? Humph!”

Hong Yi sneered and waved his big hand. “Let’s go to the Sky Thunder City to catch him.”

Swish!

Hundreds of men pierced through the sky and rushed to the northwest direction. The reason that Hong Yi acted so imperiously just now was not looking for the Red Sun Merchant Association’s troubles, but to express the two clans’ rage and obtain the information on the killer. Even though their clans were important in the White Tiger City, they were still far from the Red Sun Merchant Association which was a prominent merchant association on the White Dragon Archipelago. As they got the information they needed, naturally, they wouldn’t stay here anymore.

They didn’t take the Heaven Fate Ship but flew to the Sky Thunder Island in a mighty contingent. There was indeed no bandit legion on the White Dragon Archipelago that dared stop hundreds of Heaven Monarchs and two upper-tier Heaven Monarchs, who were also the men of the Hong Clan and Li Clan.

…

Swish!

At the same time, there was an air-piercing sound on the east of the Sky Thunder Island. Jiang Yi flew back to the Sky Thunder Island with his group.

“Chief Jiang!”

There were patrol guards on the Sky Thunder Island. When they saw Jiang Yi, they cupped their hands and greeted him from a distance. Jiang Yi put on his kind smile, nodded, and greeted them back. He looked at Commander Lu Feng who led the group and laughed. “Commander Feng, it’s a short parting, but I’ve missed you so much. Shall we have dinner tonight?”

“Chief Jiang has invited me so warmly; how can I say no?”

Commander Lu Feng laughed loudly. However, his heart faltered slightly when he saw Qian Wanguan was back, but only about 60 men returned. It seemed like Jiang Yi waged a war against the Black Wind Legion. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many people missing. He made it alive despite the fight and even brought Qian Wanguan back?!

They exchanged a few words of greetings before Jiang Yi flew back to the Sky Thunder City with his group of people, instantly creating a commotion in the city. Many people vaguely got some rumors that Jiang Yi was going to fight with an extremely powerful bandit legion. Everyone thought that he was unable to come back. They never expected that not only he himself returned safe and sound, but also brought Qian Wanguan back.

After the Heaven Monarchs that followed him to this journey told the crowd about what happened in the battle with the Black Wind Legion and how they killed other people outside the Red Fort and in the White Tiger City, the entire Sky Thunder City was shimmering with excitement. Jiang Yi was now the leader of the slaves in the Sky Thunder City. He was aggressive and powerful outside the city, which made them feel proud, too. Of course… some people were disappointed, too. The stronger Jiang Yi was, the less likely that they would rise up someday.

After Jiang Yi returned to the city, he asked the group to have some rest. He went straight to the second floor of the City Lord Mansion and paid a visit to City Lord Lu Ping.

“My Lord, how are you lately?”

Jiang Yi looked as happy as a spring breeze. The Ancient Divine Essence Ring shone in his hand, he took out a ring and pushed it forward on the table. Smiling, he said, “I didn’t buy anything for City Lord in this trip and brought something small.”

Without any words of courtesy, Lu Ping took the ring single-handedly and glanced with her divine senses. Upon seeing 10 billion celestial stones inside, her old face smiled as brightly as a blossoming flower. Nodding repeatedly, she said, “Chief Jiang is so polite. It looks that Chief Jiang had a grand victory this time and reap a big harvest.”

Jiang Yi smiled bitterly and said, “The Black Wind Legion wanted to make all of us stay, we had no choice but to start a fight. We lost dozens of men. Luckily, Yang Dong and the others were strong and destroyed the Black Wind Legion. On our way back, two Young Masters of the Hong Clan and Li Clan wanted to stop and kill us. Again, we had no alternative but to kill them. I guess I may cause some troubles to my Lord…”

“Uh!”

Lu Ping’s hand quavered slightly. She looked at Jiang Yi as sharp as electricity—in surprise. The information she gathered on the Black Wind Legion was thorough, and she was very aware of the combat strength of Yang Dong and the others. How did Jiang Yi manage to annihilate the entire Black Wind Legion? Did his power greatly increase? However, he seemed to be at exactly the same level.

“The Hong Clan and Li Clan?”

Lu Ping paused, waved her hand, and said, “They are rather famous in the White Tiger City and are quite close to the White Tiger City Lord Lu Shan. However, Sky Thunder City is not the White Tiger City. The outsiders don’t get the chance to mess around here. Chief Jiang, go back and have some rest. Later, you let Lord Qian and Lu Feng meet and catch up.”

“Thank you, my Lord!”

Jiang Yi bowed and excused himself. With Lu Ping’s promise, he could almost ignore the threat from the Hong Clan and Li Clan. Right now, the crucial thing was to think about how to continue the business of selling the thunder stones. If this business couldn’t be carried out, he wouldn’t be able to continue to bribe Lu Ping. If he wanted to ask her for a favor next time, she surely wouldn’t be bothered.

There was absolutely no friendship on this Sin Island. Only the common interests were the unbreakable bond of an alliance.
