Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 873: Butterfly Lady Race

The Heaven Fate Ship broke past the sky and flew towards the south quickly. Originally, it would take about three full days to reach if it had headed straight for the east. However, at this moment, Jiang Yi had ordered to fly towards the southeast direction. Therefore, the distance between them and the East Imperial Continent grew further overtime.

The sky gradually turned dark after flying towards the south for a full day. Jiang Yi didn’t order them to turn back, causing all of them to start becoming slightly restless because the southeast region might also be dangerous. There were too many bandits within the Sin Sea. Thus, no one could be sure if they would be safe.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

It had happened as soon as they thought of it. On their left, a dozen miles away was an island, where close to a thousand Heaven Monarchs soared up, and they flew over. Song Zhong’s complexion immediately turned ugly when he discovered that there were close to 300 middle-stage Heaven Monarchs after scouting with his divine senses.

“Get lost!”

An immense shout rang out from a ship as it resonated the surroundings like a thunderclap as it frightened the young boy awake as was in deep sleep inside Tantai Shi’s embrace. Following it, a mountain-like aura presence rose up and pervaded the surroundings. Very quickly, it shrouded the bandits that were a distance away.

“My lord, please forgive me. I have failed to recognize your greatness and have offended you!”

The boss of the bandit shuddered as he yelled out deeply while clasping his fist hastily. He brought his bandits and retreated rapidly as they rushed back into the dense thicket within the small island and vanished.

Buzz!

The restriction on the cabin Jiang Yi was in had been opened up as he walked out to the deck while Song Zhong brought the rest of them and follow suit. However, none of them spoke as they stood behind Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi narrowed his eyes into a seam while he stared at the sun that was lowering itself beneath the horizon unhurriedly and the sunset covered the whole sky. He paused for a moment before waving his hand, “Enough. Turn back around and fly towards the east. The Black Flame Legion shouldn’t be chasing us anymore.”

“Understood!”

Song Zhong waved his hand, and the Heaven Fate Ship turned around rapidly. He has no idea how Jiang Yi could be so confident about it but an expert’s words were very convincing.

Buzz!

The cabin Tantai Shi was in had opened up, and a cute little girl wearing a red dress with her hair braided like goat horns walked out. She didn’t seem to be afraid at all as she flung Tantai Shi’s hand away and skipped over to Jiang Yi’s side. She tilted her head and inquired, “Uncle, are we safe?”

Jiang Yi lowered his head and looked at the little girl’s pure eyes that did not hold a single trace of impurity. He smiled nonchalantly. “Yes. We are safe for the time being. You don’t need to be afraid. Uncle will definitely achieve what I had promised you.”

“Thank you, Uncle!”

The little girl’s eyes had narrowed to the shape of the crescent moon as she smiled sweetly. Subsequently, she tilted her head and asked again, “Uncle, what’s your name? I’m Tantai Yu. My mother said that I was born in the seas, and it just so happens that a big fish passed by. Therefore, she gave me this name. Uncle can call me Xiao Yu¹. En… My younger brother is called Tantai Tian. Everyone calls him Xiao Tian, and we are twins of a different gender.”

“Twins of a different gender?”

Jiang Yi glanced at the shy little boy that was hiding behind Tantai Shi and smiled. He turned his eyes away and squatted down as he grabbed onto Xiao Yu’s hand. “Xiao Yu, Uncle is called… Xue Yi!”

He had to conceal his identity since he was heading to the East Imperial Continent. Originally, Jiang Yi wanted to continue using his Lone Wolf name. However, he felt that this name was very susceptible. Thus, he had simply replaced it with a new name.

Xue Yi. Xue referred to Su Ruoxue while Yi referred to Yi Piaopiao. It represented his endless yearning for both of them.

“Uncle’s name is really pleasant.”

The little girl released Jiang Yi’s hand and ran to the side of the ship. She grabbed onto the handrail at the side of the ship before leaping up and sat on it. After which, she smiled and said, “Uncle, my grandfather is the City Lord of the Heaven Flame City in Heaven State Region. When we head over to the Heaven Flame City, I will definitely get my grandfather to let you be a city official.”

“Heaven State Region?”

Jiang Yi had some impression of that place. He saw the map of the East Imperial Continent before. It was a region that was close to the sea in the northwest area, and it seemed like it had been occupied by a formidable special race. Unexpectedly, this Tantai Shi was somewhat reputable.

He had entered this Heaven Fate Ship as he originally wanted to inquire about the East Imperial Continent situations. Besides, they were going to reach the continent in a few days. Thus, he was disinclined to cultivate. He might as well walk over and have a chat with Xiao Yu.

“Xiao Yu. The sky had turned dark. Come into the cabin and eat.”

Unexpectedly, Tantai Shi—who was a distance away—had suddenly beckoned Xiao Yu to head back in. Jiang Yi couldn’t say much about it and could only walk over and rub Xiao Yu’s head. The latter displayed a comical face before running off as she followed a maidservant into the cabin.

Tantai Shi changed into a black evening gown as which set off her skin to look even fairer. A black silk ribbon was tied on her waist, causing her slim waist to look even more slender.

She walked over leisurely as she bowed at Jiang Yi humbly, “My Lord, this servant has brought some of Fire Beacon Continent’s specialties and wished to invite my Lord to dine together in order for her to express her gratitude.”

Jiang Yi glanced at Tantai Shi indifferently. He murmured to himself for a moment before nodding his head slightly. He walked into a solitary cabin under Tantai Shi lead.

The cabin wasn’t very big, and there was only a dining table in it. Four night pearls were hung in the corners, and a lot of different kinds of unique fruits and delicacies were placed on the table while a maidservant stood at the side and served everyone with respect.

Jiang Yi walked to one side and sat down carefreely while Tantai Shi sat opposite him. The maidservant poured a cup of light greenish fruit juice that emitted a sweet scene for both of them. Jiang Yi drank it boldly before he picked up a lump of unknown shoulder meat and started munching on it.

“Uh…”

Tantai Shi was slightly astonished. Originally, she thought that Jiang Yi would inspect the food first to check if there was any poison. Unexpectedly, Jiang Yi seemed not to be worried about it. Naturally, she had no idea that Jiang Yi had refined the Destitute Dragon Grass. There was practically no poison that could harm him. Therefore, there was no need for him to be worried.

Tantai Shi should be born from a major clan as the way she ate was very graceful and had very small portions. Her pair of beautiful eyes would glance at Jiang Yi occasionally as she smiled faintly. This caused the illumination within the cabin to seem to have brightened up slightly.

After he had eaten his fill, Jiang Yi drank another cup of fruit juice before grabbing the dining towel to wipe his hands. Tantai Shi had finished eating long ago as she waited for Jiang Yi to finish eating before opening her mouth to speak, “My Lord, pardon my presumptuousness. Are you a native of the East Imperial Continent?”

“No!”

Jiang Yi actually waiting for Tantai Shi to start speaking so that he could fish for some information. He replied apathetically, “I come from the Gusu Continent¹. This is my first time heading over to the East Imperial Continent, and I am preparing to venture out.”

“Gusu Continent?”

Tantai Shi didn’t seem to doubt Jiang Yi as her pair of eyes brightened up instead. The Gusu Continent was also located northwest of East Imperial Continent. There were dozens of small continent located there. Tantai Shi would have naturally heard of it since she had also come from the Fire Beacon Continent that was located there.

She murmured to herself before replying solemnly, “I shall not conceal it from my Lord. My husband’s clan is the dictator of the Heaven Flame City in the Heaven State Region that is located within the East Imperial Continent. My father-in-law is the City Lord of Heaven Flame City. If my Lord is willing to join our Tantai Clan, I can guarantee that my clan would satisfy all of my Lord’s desires.”

“Haha!”

Jiang Yi laughed teasingly. “What can you use as a guarantee? Are you the Clan Head of Tantai Clan? Besides… your Tantai Clan doesn’t have many peak-stage Heaven Monarchs, right?”

Jiang Yi had never heard of the Heaven Flame City. There were ten cities of the largest scale in the Heaven State Region, and they were all being controlled by special races. Since the Heaven Flame City was not one of it, it would mean that it was just a small city. Jiang Yi would never fancy on a small city’s clan. Even if he did, he would never join any clan as well.

Tantai Shi blushed because of Jiang Yi’s mockery. She lowered her head and paused for a long moment before raising her head back up and replying while biting onto her lip, “My Lord, you… really never heard of the Butterfly Lady Race?”
