Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 1313: Feeling of Belonging

Elder Bu scanned the few people who were flying down toward him, and his expression changed. He quickly turned to the person beside him and ordered, “Quick, report to Commander Liu. The Pavilion Lord is not around. We are going to have problems today.”

One of the disciples of the Demon-Killing Pavilion quickly rushed inside as Elder Bu waved his hand and led the group of the Demon-Killing Pavilion disciples ahead. They surrounded Jiang Yi and the men from Crazed God Castle before turning to look at the eight people in the air.

The eight of them were all God Generals. Seven of them wore golden battle armors with a divine dragon painted on the back. These seven surrounded a hale and hearty elder dressed in a golden robe. As the group of them landed, the elderly man locked his gaze on Jiang Yi. His eyes were filled with killing intent. The men from Crazed God Castle and Elder Bu obviously recognized these people. The five men from Crazed God Castle immediately bowed slightly and said, “Greetings, Commander Luo Qi!”

“Hmph!”

The elderly man named Luo Qi was well-known across Divine Eagle City. He was the elder in charge of Outer Affairs in the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan. That meant that he was in charge of tending to matters involving the outside world on behalf of the Luo Clan. He tutted as he scanned the group of men from Crazed God Castle with a glare as sharp as an eagle’s. At last, his gaze landed on Jiang Yi. In a cool tone, he said, “This man assassinated Young Master Luo Huan from my clan at Crazed God Castle. Not only did you fail to send him to the Luo Clan, but you also sent him back to the Demon-Killing Pavilion? Is your Commander He an old folly now?”

“Commander Luo Qi!”

The men from Crazed God Castle obviously welcomed this turn of events. Otherwise, they would not have gone to report the matter to the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan before delivering Jiang Yi here. One of the God Generals waved his hand in a neither supercilious nor obsequious way and said, “This man did not kill Young Master Luo Huan in Crazed God Castle. What’s more... he is a disciple of the Demon-Killing Pavilion. He was only carrying out orders.

“For fear of offending either side, Commander He had no choice but to send him here. As for how this man is to be dealt with, both of your clans can settle it among yourselves. We will bid our farewells. Commander He will personally go to Battle God Pavilion’s Luo Clan to explain matters in time to come.”

The men from Crazed God Castle had obviously been instructed by Commander He on what to do beforehand. Their words were decisive and final. Once they handed Jiang Yi over, they turned around to board their Divine Boat and left. If they were to stay behind any longer under these circumstances, they would only attract trouble. In any case, both parties were present already. Even if they wanted to fight it out till their deaths, it had nothing to do with Crazed God Castle.

Swish! Swish!

The men from the Demon-Killing Pavilion immediately pulled Jiang Yi behind them. At the same time, ten Demon-Killing Battle Generals ran out from inside the Demon-Killing Pavilion. He Wei was one of those men. He was a loyal fellow; once he arrived, he took his place beside Jiang Yi.

“Settle things, my foot!”

Luo Qi’s eagle-like gaze scanned the men from the Demon-Killing Pavilion, who still stood proud. In a cold tone, he said, “This man killed Young Master Luo Huan from Battle God Pavilion’s Luo Clan. We have already reported this to the Clan Head. If this man does not die, our Luo Clan can forget about keeping our chins up in Blue Eagle Prefecture. The Demon-Killing Pavilion is not bad, is it? Young Master Luo Huan was a disciple of Battle God Pavilion. How could you accept a mission to assassinate him? If your pavilion does not offer an explanation, we will see no end... bring the man away!”

Buzz! Buzz!

Seven God Generals from Battle God Pavilion summoned their weapons and charged toward Jiang Yi, filled with killing intent. It was obvious they were prepared to snatch him away. Jiang Yi had finally seen the prestige and dominance of the Battle God Pavilion for himself. They did not even show any form of respect to the Demon-Killing Pavilion.

“Who dares?”

Elder Bu stood upright and summoned a long spear. With killing intent that matched the Battle God Pavilion’s God Generals, he said, “This man is a disciple of the Demon-Killing Pavilion. Do you think we will let you bring him away just because you said so? What do you take the Demon-Killing Pavilion for? If you want to bring him away, you would have to get through us first!”

A white arc knife appeared in He Wei’s hand. He stood out and said, “Elder Bu is right. The Demon-Killing Pavilion is not to be pushed around. Whoever wants to snatch one of us must get through the rest first!”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

From afar, the tens of God Generals from Battle God Pavilion flew toward them. At the same time, Demon-Killing Battle Generals flew out from Demon-Killing Pavilion. From even further away, people from Earth Emanations Pavilion were running out to watch the drama unfold. Countless people around the city plaza had been alerted. As fast as they could, they gathered around the battle.

It was obvious that this fight had a huge impact on everyone else.

Jiang Yi’s heart was in his throat. From the looks of it, a battle between the Battle God Pavilion and the Demon-Killing Pavilion was inevitable. What’s more, it was going to start at any time. However, if the battle was allowed to begin, he was sure he would be the number one target. The source of this content is novelenglish.net . (f)ire.ɴet

Yet, there was no way he could retreat yet. So many people in the Demon-Killing Pavilion were standing up for him. If he were to run away now, he would be letting all of them down. The pride in his bones caused him to stand rooted to the ground, not moving an inch. The Fire Dragon Sword appeared in his hand. Even if he were to die, he would take one or two enemies down with him.

“Everybody, stop!”

A loud, explosive voice traveled out from the Demon-Killing Pavilion. A skinny, small-sized elderly man walked out, leading tens of Demon-Killing Battle Generals with him. Once Elder Bu caught sight of this man, he heaved a huge sigh of relief. The Pavilion Lord was not in so Commander Liu was in charge of managing the pavilion’s affairs. Now that he was here, the Demon-Killing Pavilion’s name would not be allowed to be dragged through the mud for sure.

“Greetings, Commander Liu.”

The tens of people from the Demon-Killing Pavilion immediately perked up as if they had just found their backbone. Luo Qi, on the other hand, did not care in the least. A mocking smile split his face as he said in a cool voice, “Commander Liu, it is good that you came. Your man assassinated my clan’s Young Master Luo Huan. The Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan needs an explanation. The Clan Head is outraged. What do you think of the matter?”

“What explanation?”

Commander Liu was a skinny and small-sized man. His face was small, and his eyes were small. At that moment, he smiled with his hands behind his back. “Someone issued this mission; they wanted Luo Huan’s head. A disciple from Demon-Killing Pavilion accepted it and killed the target. Isn’t that very normal?”

“Haha!”

Luo Qi laughed mirthlessly. His entire body shook as he did so. He reached out and pointed to Commander Liu, saying, “Liu Wei, there must be something wrong with your brain. I wanted to ask you about this, too: who the hell issued a mission like that? The Demon-Killing Battle God knew full well that the Luo Clan’s Young Master was being targeted. Why did you accept such a mission? Are you telling me that you accept all missions indiscriminately? What if someone issues a mission for you, Commander Liu, to be killed in the future? Should the Battle God Pavilion accept it? Honestly... there are easily thirty people in Battle God Pavilion alone who could kill someone like you, Commander Liu.”

The hidden meaning in Luo Qi’s words was clear. If Commander Liu did not offer him an explanation, a new mission might appear in the Battle God Pavilion for Commander Liu to be assassinated. When that time came and the superiors asked about it, the Battle God Pavilion could always say that the Demon-Killing Pavilion was the one who started this feud. They would not be able to point fingers at the Battle God Pavilion then. Luo Qi’s words made clear the power and aggression of the Battle God Pavilion.

“Who issued such a mission? I’m sorry, I cannot reveal that. We have to keep the identity of the person who issued the mission secret!”

Commander Liu was not angered in the least. He was still smiling, and his hands were still behind his back. Calmly, he said, “As for why we wanted to take this mission; we have our reasons. Half a month ago, Luo Huan came into contact with the Fei Clan’s Fei Ming. From our sources, they had come into contact several times in recent months. Each time, they met in a secret room! Luo Qi, you yourself know full well what the Fei Clan has done. Whether your entire Luo Clan is involved in this is still something that I have to ask Blue Eagle Prefecture to investigate!”

“You... are maligning us!”

Luo Qi’s expression changed at once. His eyes glinted almost venomously as he gritted his teeth and said, “Liu Wei, you know full well what this matter concerns. Make your decision: are you going to hand over the man or not? The Luo Clan is to be respected. The Clan Head is outraged. Be prepared to bear with the consequences of your own decision.”

“I’m sorry!”

Commander Liu smiled and shrugged his shoulders. “The Demon-Killing Pavilion will not leave its disciples in the lurch. This was the main instruction that the Supreme Thearch of the Demon-Killing Pavilion left behind. We will uphold it with all we have.”

“Good! Good! Good!”

Luo Qi waved his hand and led his people back up in the air. From there, he scanned Jiang Yi from head to toe and shouted, “Not everyone can afford to offend the Luo Clan. Liu Wei, you will pay for the decision you made today.”

Luo Qi left just like that. The men of Battle God Pavilion followed closely behind him. From beginning to end, Commander Liu’s smile never left his face. He looked every bit the magnanimous and harmonious elderly man. He turned to look at Jiang Yi appreciatively, his smile still on his face. “Brat, you have guts! However... I can only protect you this once. When you go out on missions next time, pray for more luck.”

It was not easy for someone like Jiang Yi to feel moved. This time, however, he was thoroughly moved. He bowed deeply and said, “Thank you, Commander Liu. Jiang Yi is allowed to live on because of you; I will always be a disciple of the Demon-Killing Pavilion. Even if I die, I will remain a ghost of the Demon-Killing Pavilion!”

The Demon-Killing Pavilion offended the mighty Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan for someone like him. This made Jiang Yi feel a deep sense of belonging to the Demon-Killing Pavilion for the first time ever.
