“Bang!”

In the other side, Jiang Yiliu was seated within the carriage while listening to the message from his clansmen. He was instantly infuriated and thrashed the luminous cup on the ground. With eyes of hatred, he clenched his teeth and murmured, “Su Ruoxue, you s.l.u.t. How is this prince not better than a b.a.s.t.a.r.d child like Jiang Yi? You actually hooked up with him? s.l.u.t, s.l.u.t!”

“Yiliu!”

A deep shout echoed from the outside of the carriage, startling Jiang Yiliu. A black figure pulled aside the curtain and entered. He looked at Jiang Yiliu with a severe expression and lowered his voice. “There are three Soul Travel Realm experts in the vicinity. Can’t you be more careful? If Princ.i.p.al Qi was to hear you, you must know of the consequences…”

Jiang Yiliu shuddered and woke up from his rage. He quickly opened up the curtain and looked around before lowering his voice and asking, “Wuji, how is the arrangement?”

Zhangsun Wuji let out a cold smirk as he laughed subtly. “Do you have to worry if I am the one handling it? Don’t worry, prepare for a show three days later.”

Jiang Yiliu nodded. Zhangsun Wuji had always carried out his task with a bold yet scrupulous manner. If he was the one handling, there would definitely be no problems. But he hesitated and asked, “This time, there are three Vice Princ.i.p.als escorting us. Zhan Wushuang, Qian w.a.n.guan, and Su Ruoxue are with that b*stard Jiang Yi, too. Do not let things go out of control.”

“Haha!”

Zhangsun Wuji laughed as though it wasn’t a problem. “The Zhan Clan sent a Soul Travel Realm expert as a guard, and the Qian Clan also has a Soul Travel Realm expert secretly following behind. Once chaos breaks out, they will not bother about anything and evacuate their Young Clan Head as the first priority. As for Su Ruoxue… since you cannot get this woman, destroy her!”

“Destroy?”

Jiang Yiliu shook his head. “It would be such a pity to destroy this absolute beauty. Keep her. I will kill her once I had enough fun.”

“Alright then!”

Zhangsun Wuji helplessly let out a sigh. He turned his head and asked, “How is the side with the West Garrison Army? Where is the other 300 Iron Blood Guards? As long as we have the 600 Iron Blood Guards, I can guarantee that Jiang Yi would die without a burial within the Tomb of the Heaven Monarch even if this plan doesn’t work out.”

“That isn’t a problem!”

Jiang Yiliu nodded and said, “Jiang Zhun has always listened to my orders. With Lord Father out at the royal capital, Jiang Zhun wouldn’t dare disobey me.”

“Alright. Endure for the next few days and don’t be impulsive. Else, you might invite some suspicion.”

Zhangsun Wuji nodded his head and walked out while Jiang Yiliu watched him leave. He sat back on his seat in the carriage for a moment before laughing coldly. “Jiang Yi. If you don’t die, I will not be able to sleep at ease. So… you better die.”

For the next two days, it had been nothing but tranquility along the way. But Jiang Yiliu hated it so badly that his tooth ached. For every meal time, Su Ruoxue would go into Jiang Yi’s carriage and stay inside for at least one hour. He used to invite Su Ruoxue many times in the past, but she didn’t even accept once. This fact alone made Jiang Yiliu so mad that he nearly couldn’t hold back from personally killing Jiang Yi.

Except for eating and sleeping, Jiang Yi would be cultivating. In addition, he would only sleep six hours a day. His diligence in cultivation made Zhan Wushuang ashamed of himself.

On the third evening, Jiang Yi estimated that it was about time for dinner and stopped cultivation. He looked around and didn’t see a sight of Qian w.a.n.guan. The table wasn’t arranged with the regular delicacies, too. He asked Zhan Wushuang with curiosity, “What is the situation?”

“Look outside!” Zhan Wushuang was holding onto a cup of wine and spoke indifferently.

Jiang Yi pushed aside the curtain and noticed that there was limited illumination on the outside. He looked up and saw that both sides were precipitous cliffs. The fleet was now currently traversing within a long and narrow valley. It was so narrow that, it could only allow four to five carriages to go through at the same time.

“This is the Soul Break Valley, and it is a famous venue on the continent. Back when the Great Xia Kingdom invaded the Divine Martial Kingdom, they were ambushed by the Western Garrison Liege Lord when they were pa.s.sing through this Soul Break Valley. An army of 500,000 was nearly annihilated, and there were hundreds of thousands of souls were buried down there. This was why this place is called the Soul Break Valley. We will have to wait for some time! At least another hour is needed to pa.s.s through the Soul Break Valley before we can find a suitable camping site. Today’s dinner will most probably be delayed.”

“Zhan Wushuang, why did you mention all this? Are you trying to frighten us?” Zhan Lin’er, who was at the side, was rather unhappy. She raised her fist and punched Zhan Wushuang’s shoulder.

“Oh.”

Jiang Yi was used to seeing the pampered and rough behavior from Zhan Lin’er. He could see that Zhan Lin’er was always unhappy with Zhan Wushuang and didn’t have the usual intimate interactions that you would normally see between a young sister and an elder brother. On the contrary, Zhan Wushuang treated her with much love and even protected her in all ways. But this was their family’s issues, and if Zhan Wushuang didn’t want to talk about it, Jiang Yi wouldn’t go asking either.

He knitted his brows and had this grave expression. His instinctively felt something was wrong but couldn’t explain it either. He sat within the carriage and observed while getting ready to react anytime.

One hour later, the sky had turned completely dark, and the front of the fleet had exited the valley—leaving about forty to fifty carriages that had yet to pa.s.s. Right at this time, three long and two short whistles echoed from the front. They could subtly hear the howls from three beasts. Three formidable and frightful presences shrouded the valley. The fleet immediately went into confusion, and it was even more chaotic outside of the valley.

“Everyone, do not panic. It is only three demonic beasts. Guards and Mentors, protect the cadets. Vice Princ.i.p.al Liu, come a.s.sist me!”

Princ.i.p.al Qi’s burst of shouts echoed and slightly calmed the cadets. Princ.i.p.al Qi and the two Vice Princ.i.p.als were Soul Travel Realm experts. This wasn’t the Mt. Thirty Thousand, and overwhelmingly strong demonic beasts shouldn’t appear here. The three princ.i.p.als should be more than enough to handle it, right? If not, Princ.i.p.al Qi would have asked everyone to evacuate.

Here we go…

Jiang Yi and Zhan Wushuang looked in each other’s eyes, and both of them looked dignified. A round ball-shaped figure rushed into their carriage and said seriously, “Boss, trouble! The few tier-three beasts coming from the mountain range far away are suddenly appearing here! There must be something wrong! I initially thought that with Princ.i.p.al Qi and the rest here, there shouldn’t be any danger. I asked the five peak-stage Purple Mansion Realm experts that my clan sent to stand by at the Tomb of the Heaven Monarch. I do not have any men nearby that can protect you…”

Jiang Yi muttered to himself for a moment before asking, “Do you guys not have anyone to protect you, too?”

Zhan Wushuang and Qian w.a.n.guan looked at each other before the latter laughed bitterly. “There is! But he is a secret guard and would only help me evacuate at the crucial moment. I cannot give any orders to him. Zhan Wushuang’s clan too…”

Zhan Wushuang nodded. “Yes, the clan’s secret guards would only be responsible for our safety and nothing else.”

“Alright, it is fine as long as all of you are safe. Don’t worry about me, they cannot kill me.”

Jiang Yi let out a cold laugh and circulated his essence force before bursting out of the carriage. Before Qian w.a.n.guan and Zhan Wushuang could react, Jiang Yi had already vanished into the darkness.

“Boss…”

Qian w.a.n.guan got extremely anxious as he rolled and jumped off the carriage; he attempted to chase after Jiang Yi. But unexpectedly, a phantom-like figure appeared, grabbed Qian w.a.n.guan on the shoulder, and spoke in a lowered voice, “Young Clan Head, the people who made the move are members from the Death G.o.d. The situation is especially chaotic, I will temporary evacuate you first.

“Swis.h.!.+”

From the other side, another black-robed veteran quietly appeared and arrived at the vicinity of the carriage. He faced Zhan Wushuang and cupped his fists. “Young Lord, Young Miss, please follow this subordinate and temporary retreat first.”

Qian w.a.n.guan and Zhan Wushuang both sighed slightly. They had guessed that the situation was unusually severe, or else their secret guards would not have appeared so quickly and even want to forcefully evacuate them. These secret guards would only take orders from the Clan Head and no one else.

“Boss, you have to survive!”

Qian w.a.n.guan mumbled and didn’t have a choice but to retreat along with the clan’s expert.

As the night grew darker, a killing aura subtly pervaded from the valley, causing plenty of the war horses to let out countless of neighs.
