Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 1314: Rather Die than Submit!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiang Yi was instantly famous in the Divine Eagle Tribe. After all, he had dared to accept a mission to kill a Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan young master and had actually succeeded in killing Luo Huan. He was also the idiot that had almost ignited a huge battle between the Battle God Pavilion and the Demon-Killing Pavilion. It was hard for Jiang Yi not to be famous.

In everyone’s eyes, Jiang Yi was a total fool!

If it was anyone else, no one would have dared to accept this assignment. Luo Huan was considered a person of significant status within the Divine Eagle City and Divine Eagle Tribe; as long as one investigated a little, his identity would be made known. Even if there were people like Jiang Yi who did not know about Luo Huan and accepted the mission—once Luo Huan mentioned the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan, they would not dare to act further. However, Jiang Yi had actually known Luo Huan’s identity but still decided to take him out.

Luo Huan’s grandfather was not only one of the ranking persons in the Divine Eagle City; he was number two. He was only one below the Divine Eagle City Lord Luo Chen from the Earth Emanations Pavilion. With regard to battle prowess, Luo Huan’s grandfather was ranked first in Divine Eagle City. However, this place was after all the Earth Emanations Domain; the City Lord was still the highest authority on paper.

After this news spread, the underground gambling dens in the south city of the Divine Eagle Tribe and the gambling establishments in the Crazed God Castle all started to take bets. They were wagering on how many days Jiang Yi could live. The longer he lived, the higher the returns.

“Brother Jiang, you were too reckless this time. Sister Mei had already said that this mission was more dangerous; I did not expect it was actually to kill Luo Huan? If I had known, I would have stopped you from doing something foolish.”

Outside the Mission Office in the Demon-Killing Pavilion, He Wei spoke with Jiang Yi in a heavy and serious voice. He knew that Jiang Yi really wanted to promote and become a Demon-Killing Battle General to go and find his sister. He Wei did not expect Jiang Yi to dare to take even a mission like this. Jiang Yi was really someone who feared no one and no being.

“What is the point of bringing up all this now? The deed has already been done; at most, I will die!”

Jiang Yi stopped as he smiled slightly; he looked very relaxed. There was no way to turn back time and no time for regrets in this world. The one phrase he had heard the most when he was young was what Jiang Yunhai had told him: “Do not regret what you have done, follow your heart, and do not fear challenges. One’s life is only decades long; one should not ask for longevity, but to live life to its fullest.”

“Die?”

He Wei paused as he looked very seriously at Jiang Yi and said, “Jiang Yi, you’d better not step out of the Divine Eagle Tribe in the near future. The Battle God Pavilion had probably already ordered a mission to kill you. Your movements would be constantly watched. Once you leave the Divine Eagle Tribe, no one can save you! It is forbidden to battle within the tribe. Also, the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan is not known to be sloppy. They had lost face this time, but sooner or later, they will get it back from you. You should know that great family clans care the most about their face. If you head out—even if you went along with my father, even he would not be able to protect you.”

“I cannot leave the tribe?”

Jiang Yi grimaced a little. Almost all the missions require leaving the tribe. Missions within the tribe are hard to come by while the battle merits reward was also pitiful. It couldn’t be that he had to stay within the tribe forever, right? Also, was he supposed to do nothing as Jiang Xiaonu was alone in Blue Lion Tribe? What if she was being bullied?

Jiang Yi closed his eyes, feeling a little uncomfortable. He shook his head and didn’t say anything as he walked into the Mission Office. He Wei, however, remained outside. He was a little afraid of Sister Mei. The look she gave young men was rather unsettling.

Sister Mei was on shift in the Mission Office again this time. Seeing Jiang Yi enter, her lips curled as she stretched forth a thumb and said, “Jiang Yi, you are a real man. It has been many years since the Demon-Killing Pavilion had someone like you. I precisely like men like you.”

Jiang Yi did not have the heart or time to banter with this lady. He handed over the human head coldly as he said without expression. “I am here to complete the mission!”

Sister Mei gestured towards the outside as a guard entered from outside the Mission Office. She pointed at the head and said, “Hand over this head to the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan; at least Luo Huan can have his full body intact.”

Jiang Yi did not mind this. As long as he was given his battle merits, he was happy. Sister Mei glanced at Jiang Yi’s ring as she took out hers. Sister Mei grabbed Jiang Yi’s ring and conveniently caressed his hand. Her hand lit up as she let go of Jiang Yi’s ring and said, “Commander Liu had specially ordered to give you an additional five hundred battle merits. Jiang Yi, it seems as if Commander Liu looks favorably upon you.”

“On me?”

Jiang Yi smiled as he mocked himself. Commander Liu was probably pitying him and trying to give him some solace. In Commander Liu’s eyes, Jiang Yi was probably a dead man. If the scene had not taken place outside the Demon-Killing Pavilion but in the Crazed God Castle, Commander Liu probably would not have stood forward to shield him. Even if Commander Liu had wanted to do so, Luo Qi would probably have deployed men to start a fight in Crazed God Castle. Jiang Yi had only been able to live this time because he had returned to the Divine Eagle Tribe.

Jiang Yi received the ring and injected his heavenly powers. A string of numbers appeared on the ring. After confirming that the number of battle merits was correct, Jiang Yi turned to leave. However, Sister Mei suddenly spoke, “Wait!”

Although Jiang Yi’s heart was filled with utter distaste, he paused for a moment, turned slightly, and asked, “Is there anything else, Sister Mei?”

Sister Mei swayed her body as she walked over, her dainty hand resting on Jiang Yi’s shoulder. Her face was near Jiang Yi’s as she said in a sensual voice, “Little man, you should not venture out of the tribe in the near future. If not, not even an immortal can save you.”

“Many thanks for the reminder.”

Jiang Yi moved his head away from Sister Mei’s as he replied. Sister Mei smiled as she sighed and spoke again. “Actually, there are missions within the tribe. If I gave them all to you, it shouldn’t be a problem obtaining a few thousand battle merits within a month...”

“A month?”

A month on the Higher Domain was eight Lower-Domain years; for only a few thousand battle merits? Jiang Yi could not be bothered to take on these missions and would also not get on with this loose woman for that amount of battle merits. He smiled lightly as he freed himself from Sister Mei’s grip and walked towards the door. At the door, he turned and said, “Sister Mei, the reason why men can rule in this world is that most men have backbones; they would rather die than submit!”

“Backbone?” ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴovelFɪre.net

Sister Mei watched as Jiang Yi walked further and further away. Her smile slowly became cold as she murmured, “How much is backbone worth in divine roots? Jiang Yi, things that I—Luo Mei—wishes to obtain, I have never failed to do so before. One day, I will make you kneel down in front of me and beg like a dog. Hahahah...”

“Luo Mei!”

Sister Mei had just finished speaking when a fierce and cold voice rang out in the Mission Office. This voice was very strange; the guard outside and He Wei could not hear it. Only Sister Mei could.

“Commander Liu!”

The sensual glitter in Sister Mei’s eyes disappeared as she cupped her hands respectfully. She was very clear how terrifying the normally chirpy and smiley old man could be when he was enraged.

“Did Luo Qingyan order this mission?”

Commander Liu’s voice filled with killing intent rang forth again: “You accepted a mission on the side and did not report it. I will give City Lord Luo some face and forgive you this time. If there is a next, you can pack up and head back to the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan. The Demon-Killing Pavilion is just a small temple; we cannot afford to have such a huge god like you with us.”

“Commander Liu, please do not be angry!”

Sister Mei’s face was extremely serious as she cupped her hands and said, “Actually... I was also doing this for the good of Demon-Killing Pavilion. The Battle God Pavilion has been so overbearing. If it isn’t for the alliance between the Demon-Killing Battle God and the Earth Emanations Pavilion, we might have to defer to Luo Fu for everything in the Divine Eagle City! It is only with our alliance that we can match up to the Battle God Pavilion.”

“Hmph!”

Commander Liu suddenly snorted, and it was like an explosion in Sister Mei’s head. Sister Mei let out a cry of pain as her body went soft, and she sat on the floor—her face pale white and almost without color. Commander Liu had actually used his powerful soul spirit attack. His words rang out again: “The Pavilion Lord has his own take on this matter. If you still dare to go behind our backs and take matters into your own hands, do not blame me for not showing City Lord Luo any face.”

Sister Mei gritted her teeth as she stood up and did not dare to utter any more nonsense. She bowed and said, “I have done wrong. I will never do something like this again.”
