Chapter 654: Get Lost

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jiang Yi spent several hundred celestial stones this time and gave a total of more than 1,000 celestial stones to Hu San. He finally got the basic information about the Sky Thunder City and understood their predicament.

The giant god bestowing island was surrounded by nine narrow islands like nine dragons that chased after a spirit pearl. They were at the White Dragon Island—one of the nine narrow islands. It was the territory of the Lu Clan which was one of the thirteen great clans.

Sky Thunder Island was not only a place for newcomers to complete their service but also for those who broke the disciplines of the Lu Clan. For example, if one started a fight in the city and was detained by Lu Clansmen, he would have two choices. The first one was death, and the second one was a ten-year service on Sky Thunder Island.

Therefore, the population of Sky Thunder City was quite high. There were at least 20,000 residents. Where there were people, there were cliques and darkness! Many strong Heaven Monarch martial artists decided to stay here permanently. They formed gangs and became bullies.

They relied on their power to plunder wealth. Hu San told him that one had to hand in a thunder stone every ten days in order to be part of any factions. The high-ranked members of the ten largest factions almost didn’t have to go out and dig thunder stones. They could just relax in the city. A tremendous amount of thunder stones were submitted every month as every faction had at least 1,000 subordinates.

The thunder stones could be used to exchange merits in the mansion of the City Lord. The merits were commonly used in Sin Island and were very useful, but Hu San didn’t explain the exact use of the merits.

Jiang Yi had two options now. He would either join a powerful faction or start his own faction. However, people that chose the latter usually didn’t end up well. They were often targeted by men of the ten great factions once they left the east city gate and would be killed ruthlessly.

Once Jiang Yi, Feng Luan, and the Golden Flood Dragon were dead, Zhan Wushuang and the rest had to go out of the city to find celestial stones by themselves. With their pathetic strength, they would only die in a much crueler way. Eventually, everyone had to die.

However—!

Would Jiang Yi seek the patronage of any faction? He would let it go if one celestial stone every ten days was the only requirement. However, when Hu San left, he sent a voice transmission to him and said that it was very simple to win the support of Chief Li. Jiang Yi only needed to offer a bribe, which was either a valuable treasure or a person.

Giving away Thearch Palace and Fire Cloud Armor or Feng Luan and the group were non-negotiable. Jiang Yi had recently reined in his hot temper as violence was not permitted in the city. Otherwise, Hu San had long been a dead man.

“Huuu...”

After Hu San left, Jiang Yi let out a deep breath. When he found the crowd looking gloomy and disheartened, he grinned and said, “Don’t you worry. At worst, I will bring you out of this city and seek refuge somewhere else. We can still go whenever we want to.”

Feng Luan nodded and said, “That’s right. Guys, don’t worry. Young Master has survived from the hunt of the She Clan and the Jian Clan. Can this tiny Sin Island be more horrible than those two super clans?”

Zhan Wushuang, Yun Fei, and the rest didn’t know what happened in the past, but they didn’t ask much and remained calm. Since Jiang Yi was able to keep them alive until now, he would definitely continue to do so. They just needed to keep on improving their own strengths so that they could be useful to Jiang Yi in the future instead of being his burden.

“Wanguan, you’re doing great! Congratulations on reaching the Vajra Realm!”

Jiang Yi turned to Qian Wanguan and looked at him in approval. As lazy as Qian Wanguan, he managed to stay in seclusion for such a long time and break through the Vajra Realm. It was really rare.

“Hehe!”

Qian Wanguan scratched himself in embarrassment and said, “Boss, you are so kind to me. If I don’t work hard, am I still deserving to be a man?”

Jiang Yi nodded and looked at Jiang Xiaonu. He asked gently, “Xiaonu, how is your cultivation? Have you broken through the second level?”

“En!”

Jiang Xiaonu smiled faintly and whispered, “I just comprehended the techniques of the second level, but it’s still a long way to achieve phenomenal success.”

“How is your strength after transformation? Can you finish an average Heaven Monarch?”

Jiang Yi’s eyes twinkled, and he got up excitedly. Everyone else was shocked. Yun Fei and Qian Wanguan were especially nervous. Feng Luan and Qing Yu gave her a look of surprise. It was not long before she started the seclusion, and she already had a breakthrough?!

“Not sure!”

Jiang Xiaonu shook her head and said, “I have to transform to know my exact power, but I think my current strength is about ten times stronger than in the past.”

Ss, ss...

Everyone gave a gasp of horror. Jiang Xiaonu was comparable to a peak-stage Vajra Realm martial expert in the past, and now her strength was improved by ten times. She definitely reached the second or third stage of the Heaven Monarch Realm. This Special Race was way too mighty.

Jiang Yi was shocked, too. The Ink Feather Divine Art was only at the second level. If she cultivated to reach the peak stage of level two, wouldn’t she be at the peak of the Heaven Monarch Realm? If there was even the third stage after the second...

It was beyond Jiang Yi’s imagination. His heart surged with astonishment. He secretly wondered the history of the Ink Feather Race. Could it be an ancient mighty race on the East Imperial Continent? It was a shame that Feng Luan and the rest were not clear as well. He had no chance to ask them.

“Alright!”

Jiang Yi said with enthusiasm, “Everyone, come outside of the east city after two days. Let’s find a quiet place. I’ll take out the Thearch Palace. Wanguan, Wushuang, Yun Fei, you go inside and continue with your cultivation. The rest stay outside. If anyone dares to harm us, we kill him first! At worst, I will take you out with Heaven Evasion. Let’s rove around the world. It’s a big world, and there is bound to be a place for us.”

“Alright!”

Everyone nodded in agreement. They rarely questioned Jiang Yi’s decision.

Buzz!

Just at this moment, the shield around the small courtyard oscillated. Jiang Yi looked at it in bewilderment and asked the group to open the shield. He swept over with his divine senses and saw a young martial artist standing outside and knocking the door slowly.

“Who are you? What’s your business?” Jiang Yi sent a voice transmission.

The young man was at the first stage of the Vajra Realm. He looked inside with divine senses and sent another voice transmission: “I’m a subordinate of Chief Long. He asked me to send a message to you. If you give him the girl wearing the colorful Phoenix robe, he’ll keep you safe in the Sky Thunder City.”

He clearly meant Feng Luan. Jiang Yi was angered and shouted, “Get lost!”

The young man outside changed his expression and sent a voice transmission again: “Do you know who Chief Long is? Are you aware of what will happen to those who refuse? Huh, kid, if you are so stubborn, I guarantee that you won’t live for more than five days.”

“Is it so?”

A murderous look flickered across Jiang Yi’s eyes. He shouted coldly, “How about we go out of the city now to have a walk and you teach me how to be a man?”

“Hmph!”

That young man didn’t have the audacity to provoke him. After all, there was Heaven Monarch martial artist on Jiang Yi’s side. He snorted and left a voice transmission: “Ungrateful bastard, let’s wait and see.”

When this young man was gone, but Jiang Yi looked icier as another man flew over from a long street far away. Before he even got close, his divine senses fixed on Jiang Yi; and he said: “Kid, Brother Ba Dao said that he only needs two out of four beauties here...”

Jiang Yi didn’t reply with a voice transmission. He bellowed in wrath, “Get lost!”

He was loud, and the entire street was echoed with his voice. Many people, who were watching the show in their yards, let out even bigger smiles. It looked like the Sky Thunder Island would get more interesting in the next few days. This newcomer had quite a fiery temper.

However, they doubted whether he could maintain his tough stand after three days.
