Jiang Yi’s killing maneuvers were sluggish as he had yet to obtain full control of the Ma.s.sacre Intent. But he did grasp some essence and a trace of clear consciousness, instead of a complete berserk state. After hearing Gu Shanhe, his body s.h.i.+vered slightly as he turned to his back and looked, his blood red eyes locking onto Gu Shanhe!

“Swis.h.!.+”

In the sky, Jiang Yiliu’s eyes lit up and instantly had a realization. He steered the Ancient Divine War Chariot and dashed towards Su Ruoxue. It was obvious that he was going to use Su Ruoxue as a hostage against Jiang Yi.

“Swis.h.!.+”

Jiang Yi’s body shot towards Su Ruoxue, too. He channeled a few dozens of wisps of black essence forces to his legs, and his speed suddenly burst like the wind.

“Hold it! Any nearer, and I will do it!”

Gu Shanhe clenched onto the longsword tensely, the sword shook and cut open the skin on Su Ruoxue’s neck. Fresh blood spilled out and dyed her swan-like neck.

Gu Shanhe didn’t dare to let Jiang Yi get near. If not, that horrific killing aura would shroud him; and he wouldn’t even have the strength to wield his weapon.

“Ah!”

Su Ruoxue couldn’t move an inch of her body, but her delicate body shuddered due to the piercing pain from her neck, causing her to involuntarily leak out a light scream.

When Jiang Yi saw the painful expression in Su Ruoxue’s face, he suddenly paused in his footsteps, revealing a distressed expression. The intense killing intent was itching to tear everyone to pieces, but the trace of consciousness told him that he couldn’t move—or Su Ruoxue would die.

“Swis.h.!.+”

Right at this moment, multiple piercing sounds echoed from a forest not far from them. More than ten silver crossbow bolts were shot out silently, heading straight towards Gu Shanhe and the nearby Commander Liu.

“En?”

Commander Li, who was at the peak stage of Purple Mansion Realm, had an incredible reaction speed. He immediately noticed the crossbow bolts that were coming from behind and leaped to the side while he shouted, “Be careful, Sir Gu!”

Gu Shanhe got a shock and suddenly turned behind to look. He was instantly spooked out of his mind. In the state of panic, he didn’t care for anything and frantically evaded to the side.

“Good! Die—!”

There was a flash of red light in Jiang Yi’s eyes as he roared towards the sky. His black hair was dancing wildly as he burst forward, pouring out that horrific killing aura to quickly entrap Gu Shanhe and Commander Liu.

“Tsk Tsk!”

Due to the influence of Jiang Yi’s killing aura, Commander Liu and Gu Shanhe’s speed decreased instantly. As the crossbow bolts approached, Commander Liu was able to evade them due to his strength. As for the miserable Gu Shanhe, his body was pierced by three or four crossbow bolts. His chest got penetrated, and multiple bloodied crossbow bolts flew out, causing instant death.

“Swis.h.!.+”

A few of the crossbow bolts were shot towards Jiang Yi, but there was still quite a distance before it reached him. He circulated the black essence force to his legs and forcefully stomped on the ground. His body was like a cannonball, bursting up into the air and easily evading all the crossbow bolts.

Once he landed, he swiftly sprinted towards Su Ruoxue. Once he was near Su Ruoxue, he was finally relieved. He was confident that no one could hurt Su Ruoxue if he was around.

“Zhang Wushuang! You have the guts to make a move but don’t have the guts to reveal yourself?”

Jiang Yiliu, who was still high up in the sky, didn’t dare to steer his war chariot down. He glared towards the forest with infuriated eyes. This G.o.d-Exterminating Crossbow was extremely rare, and only the members from the Seven Great Clan possessed it. The crossbow bolts from the various clans were different. The Jiang Clan used red, the Qian Clan used black; and silver belonged to… the Zhan Clan.

“Haha, why don’t I have the guts to reveal myself?!”

Dozens of people thronged out from the small forest, and Zhan Wushuang led the group with pride. A pair of arrogant and obstinate eyes exchanged looks with Jiang Yiliu, with a mouth that was filled with a mocking expression.

Jiang Yiliu’s expression grew ashen from anger. With Su Ruoxue rescued, he couldn’t use her to threaten Jiang Yi anymore. He glared at Zhan Wushuang with vicious eyes, “Zhan Wushuang, are you trying to go against our Jiang Clan? Do you want to incite a clan war? Can you bear the consequences?”

“Jiang Yiliu! Don’t constantly hang ‘Jiang Clan’ around your words! You are not qualified to represent the Jiang Clan!”

Zhan Wushuang laughed indistinctly and swept a look at Jiang Yi. “Perhaps the Liege Lord will not be infuriated by my actions today and even be grateful to me! Jiang Yi is my brother; if you want to kill him, you have to step over my corpse first!”

“It is useless for any more words. Ask your men to withdraw!”

Zhangsun Wuji’s had a dignified expression and had remained silent. He finally spoke with a lowered voice and treacherous eyes, “Jiang Yi’s strength is too insane. He is matchless in this Tomb of the Heaven Monarch. If we don’t retreat now, I am afraid no one below can withdraw anymore!”

“Retreat? To where? And wait for Jiang Yi to endlessly chase after us?”

Jiang Yiliu’s expression distorted as he clenched his teeth, “We cannot retreat. Lord Father must already know that I have transferred the Iron Blood Guards. If I don’t kill Jiang Yi this time, there will no longer be any more chances! Put all stakes in! Wuji, coordinate your attacks with me later. I am going to utilize the… Man-Ruler Seal to kill this b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”

“Man-Ruler Seal?”

Zhangsun Wuji’s pupils shrunk as he exclaimed, “Yiliu, have you gone mad? You haven’t completely refined that saint-tier weapon, right? What if it backlashes and consumes you? You will be finished!”

The Man-Ruler Seal was a famous saint-tier weapon, and it was obtained in an ancient site by chance during the youth days of Jiang Bieli. Jiang Bieli relied on this Man-Ruler Seal to slay countless experts. When he broke through to the Vajra Realm, this treasure didn’t have much use to him anymore. It was then gifted to Jiang Yiliu when he was 15 years old.

Since it was a saint-tier weapon, the power must definitely be astounding and difficult for a regular martial artist to wield. Zhangsun Wuji knew clearly that Jiang Yiliu had yet to fully refine this Man-Ruler Seal, and his strength wasn’t sufficiently competent. If Jiang Yiliu was to forcefully wield it, he would be consumed by the weapon easily.

Jiang Yiliu didn’t reply to Zhangsun Wuji’s comments. Instead, he roared out to the soldiers of the Western Garrison Army and the Jiang clansmen, “Jiang clansmen and the Iron Blood Guards, listen to my orders. Kill Jiang Yi at all cost, and I vouch that as long as I am alive, your future generations will live in glory!”

As the same time, he shouted to all the nearby martial artists, “Everyone, listen up! I am Jiang Yiliu, the heir of the Western Garrison Liege Lord! If anyone is able to take the head of this man, they shall be rewarded with five million purple gold and one piece of heaven-tier weapon!”

“Wow!”

The declaration from Jiang Yiliu instantaneously sparked uproar. Let alone the heaven-tier weapon, just the five million purple gold was enough for a martial artist to live leisurely for a few lives. What was the reason for them risking their lives to seek for treasure in here? Wasn’t it fight for wealth and status?

“Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+”

Countless gazes were cast onto Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi’s ma.s.sacre might have embedded fear into everyone, but Jiang Yi was obviously a human and had yet to attain the Soul Travel Realm. If not, he would be able to release his essence force and immediately eradicate this group of people. Since that was the case, it meant that they had the chance to kill Jiang Yi. They only required the opportunity… and it was worth betting on this.

“Oh no!”

Zhang Wushuang exclaimed. Jiang Yiliu was indeed the son of Jiang Bieli and knew very well how to bribe people’s heart. Jiang Yiliu didn’t give up even with the current circ.u.mstances and was even willing to sacrifice all his men. It was obvious that Jiang Yiliu put everything on this bet.

The others might not know, but Zhan Wushuang knew that Jiang Yiliu had a saint-tier weapon. Martial artists were gus.h.i.+ng towards Jiang Yi in all directions, and Jiang Yi still seemed to be oblivious to it. Zhan Wushuang promptly led his men and rushed towards Jiang Yi while yelling, “Run, Jiang Yi!”

Jiang Yi seemingly didn’t see the martial artists that thronged towards him and was currently kneeling on the ground. He extended his arms and carried Su Ruoxue. His eyes were still blood red, but his mouth revealed this tender smile and spoke softly, “Su Ruoxue, I am late and allowed you to suffer. But… don’t you worry, those that bullied you will all be eradicated by me!”
