Chapter 1658: Deal With Him as a Spy
Jiang Yi always had affection towards the Demon-Killing Pavilion; he respected the Demon-Killing Supre Thearch very much. Perhaps it was also because the Demon-Killing Supre Thearch was an ascendant just like him that Jiang Yi felt closer to him.
The Demon-Killing Pavilion’s actions had been very well regarded by Jiang Yi. However, Jiang Yi still did not head to the Azure Wind City’s Demon-Killing Pavilion Branch to seek help.
Although the Demon-Killing Pavilion was rather united and loyal—as it was such a huge organization, there was bound to be a few scums inside. This was after all the Dao Clan’s territory, and soone within the Demon-Killing Pavilion could have ties with the Dao Clan. If soone sold him out, Jiang Yi would die a maligned death.
Jiang Yi went to an inn and paid so divine roots for a place. Fortunately, the Earth Domain’s divine roots were usable here. If not, Jiang Yi would have to sleep on the streets. He moved into a single castle, and he then summoned a waiter in. Jiang Yi imdiately tossed ten thousand divine roots on the table as he asked coldly, “Help buy so bottles of recuperation dicine. That dog Jiang Yi; if he ends up in my hands, I will make him wish he was dead.”
The waiter saw the divine roots as his eyes lit up. Hearing Jiang Yi scolding ‘Jiang Yi’, the waiter also empathized with Jiang Yi as he also cursed Jiang Yi, took the divine roots, and left.
Jiang Yi sent his divine senses out stealthily as he fixed them on this waiter. After confirming that he didn’t head towards the City Lord Manor and had gone to another castle instead, Jiang Yi finally relaxed.
An hour later, that waiter returned with a few bottles of top-grade recuperation dicine. This waiter was very smart; he even took out a few hundred divine roots and placed them on the table, bowing and nodding as he said, “My Lord, these are the leftover divine roots.”
“They’re yours.”
Jiang Yi gestured as that waiter was instantly overjoyed. Jiang Yi started to try and get so information out of him. Jiang Yi asked, “I heard that many troops are searching all around; have they found that dog?”
Jiang Yi did not directly use divine roots to ask for information; that would have aroused this waiter’s suspicion. As he was asking rather casually, the waiter also replied honestly. He said imdiately, “No, Nù Thearch and Cold Thearch have brought tens of millions of n and surrounded the entire Azure Region; they have even deployed the Azure Supre Thearch Army. Young Mistress Gongyang and the others have also sent their armies over.
“However, that dog Jiang Yi seed to have vanished without a trace. Who knows what mystical abilities this dog has? He has actually managed to avoid the detection of so many troops.”
“What?”
Jiang Yi feigned surprise as he asked coldly, “How is that possible? These are noblen and n of repute; they had all been mobilized? Even the Azure Supre Thearch Army? How is it that they can’t catch this dog? Could it be he had fled out of the Azure Region? Or maybe he had been rescued by soone?”
The waiter’s brows furrowed as he thought for a mont and replied, “It’s not possible for him to flee out of the Azure Region; the Azure Supre Thearch Army has sent Feng Tianwei—you have heard of Lord Feng Tianwei, right? All the Lords are also riding on roc beasts; their speed is extrely fast. Jiang Yi will not be able to escape from their detection.
“Many in the city are also guessing that he probably had been rescued by soone. If it’s not soone from the Demon-Killing Pavilion, then it is probably the Nine Yang Army. Only these two factions dare to go against the Azure Supre Thearch. However, without proof, probably even the Azure Supre Thearch himself wouldn’t dare to accuse them.”
“En-En!”
Jiang Yi nodded; internally, his heart clicked. Even an inn’s waiter had thought of the possibility of the Demon-Killing Pavilion helping him; it was fortunate he didn’t go there. If not, once he went to look for the Demon-Killing Pavilion, he would definitely be caught. Probably every Demon-Killing Pavilion Branch in each city in this region had many scouts keeping watch.
“Azure Supre Thearch is rather benevolent...”
Jiang Yi waved his hand and said, “If that dog is caught, imdiately inform . I will recuperate first and don’t disturb unless it is sothing urgent. If soone wants to look for , help to turn them down.”
Jiang Yi casually took out another thousand divine roots as that waiter was elated as he hurriedly bowed in thanks. Jiang Yi activated the castle’s restrictions as his face darkened, and his eyes grew dim. He didn’t know what to do.
Remain here?
That wasn’t a solution. Sooner or later, he would be exposed. Places such as inns would definitely be searched. If the Dao Clan didn’t even bother searching inns, they would long have been eliminated for their ineptness.
Leave?
No one was allowed to leave the city; where could he go? The scars on his face would be falling off soon; he wouldn’t possibly burn himself again, right?
“Sigh...”
Jiang Yi sighed slightly as he did not have any solutions. He could only take one step at a ti. He took out the Divine Tree leaf as he started to use it to help him heal. His wounds healed at a frightening speed as the scars on his face soon disappeared. There wasn’t a single mark left, and he looked exactly like before—even a little better.
“Cultivate!”
He didn’t have much Power of Heaven and Earth left. Without it, he wouldn’t be able to control the mummy. He could only use the rged Flas three more tis as well. If he didn’t have the mummy’s assistance, he would definitely die if he encountered King-Ranked formidable martial artists.
As he cultivated, Jiang Yi entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man to check on the situation outside and to gather so information to see if he could think of a way to survive.
Many people ca and went into this inn. Jiang Yi heard much news and information from their idle chatter, though his heart sank as he heard the chatter.
In a re half a day, the Dao Clan had already started to forcibly search all the Demon-Killing Pavilion Branches in each city.
Jiang Yi had been given the title Demon-Killing Battle God by Ye Sheng; the Dao Clan knew about this long ago. Furthermore, the Azure Region’s Demon-Killing Pavilion Branch’s formidable martial artists had been rather active recently; the Demon-Killing Pavilion General Pavilion had sent so mysterious formidable martial artists over. The Dao Clan was rather suspicious now that it could have been the Demon-Killing Pavilion that had rescued and hid Jiang Yi.
Dao Nù asked Dao Nu for his advice, and the latter sent a ssage back: search!
Regardless if this was Dao Nu’s intention or the Azure Supre Thearch’s, Dao Nù did not hold back anymore. He started to deploy n to search every single Demon-Killing Pavilion Branch and to investigate in secret the Demon-Killing Pavilion Branch’s secret hideouts.
Jiang Yi’s speed was only that fast while his Art of Concealnt could not escape the senses of King-Ranked formidable martial artists. Since so many n—so many King-Ranked formidable martial artists could not find him, Dao Nù was rather certain that Jiang Yi was hiding within a Demon-Killing Pavilion Branch.
As the search was being conducted forcibly, it was possible that the Dao Clan could cause a conflict with the Demon-Killing Pavilion. However, Jiang Yi was not worried about these things. The Demon-Killing Pavilion General Pavilion Lord would naturally worry about these things. His only concern was—since they had started searching the Demon-Killing Pavilion Branches, would they start searching the entire city next?
Just as he was thinking about it...
After another half a day, the city’s restrictions suddenly were deactivated as a huge army soared and entered, standing upright in the sky. This army was all decked out in sky-blue battle armor; they were obviously Dao Clan troops. Leading them was a King-Ranked elder who yelled, “Dao Gui, ask everyone in the city to gather here. If anyone dares to hide or disobeys, kill!”
Dao Gui was the Azure Wind City Lord, a small clan head of a Dao Clan branch lineage. He brought a group of n and shot outside as he greeted the Dao Clan elder and said, “Greetings to Twenty-Sixth Elder.”
“Everyone in the city, listen!”
After paying his respects, Dao Gui injected heavenly powers in his voice as he roared. “Everyone is to gather in the city plaza or in the streets! Everyone! In fifteen minutes—if anyone dares to disobey or hide, we will deal with him as if he was a spy.”
“Oh, no!”
Jiang Yi’s heart sank. If he went outside, he would easily be seen through by that King-Ranked elder. If he didn’t go out, he could only try to break through the encirclent. If he tried his best, he could probably break through. However, he would imdiately be exposed and be hunted by Dao Nù, Dao Leng, and the Azure Supre Thearch Army.
