“Young Master, you must be cautious. When Xiaonu comprehends the third stage of the Ink Feather Divine Art, I will surely go look for you!”

“Young Master, when Xiaonu is not with you, you have to take care of yourself. Sob, sob…”

“Young Master, sob, sob…”

It was unknown what Ao Lu had asked Qianqian to say, but Jiang Xiaonu actually agreed to stay inside Xuanwu Palace. During the time to part, Jiang Xiaonu’s tear-stained beautiful face still caused Jiang Yi to have heartache; and he nearly softened his heart to bring her along.

It was unknown how many tens of thousands of miles he was going to travel to reach the East Imperial Continent. It would take a regular Heaven Monarch a few years to reach the East Imperial Continent while regular Vajra Realm martial artists would need at least a few dozen years.

Most importantly, the East Imperial Continent was vast, without boundaries, and was filled with experts. Jiang Yi might have the Mirage Divine Ability and the Heaven Evasion, but how formidable was the Nine Thearchs Clans’ true foundation? Not even Ao Lu knew the answer.

The East Imperial Continent didn’t only have the Nine Thearchs Clans. There were 108 regions in the East Imperial Continent, and the Nine Thearchs Clans occupied 36 of them. There were 72 other regions which had been occupied by countless ancient clans, special races, and concealed sects. No one knew exactly how many experts were on the continent; neither how many treacherous lands or horrific existences there were.

Jiang Yi was venturing into the tiger’s den alone. He had entered G.o.ds Bestow Tribe and had a close relations.h.i.+p with Ao Lu, which meant he was the mortal enemy of the East Imperial Continent. Once his ident.i.ty was exposed, he would be pursued by all experts on the continent; and he would an enemy to everyone.

He had to go to Purgatory Ruin which was nearby the Buddha Thearch City, he had to find a way to obtain the Mystic Divine Palace under the eyes of all the experts in the East Imperial Continent, he had to rescue Su Ruoxue from the powerful North Thearch’s Wu Clan, he had to kill Ji Tingyu, he had to find a way to locate Yi Piaopiao, he had to find Yu Wen, and he had to extinguish the Martial Arts Hall!

All of these were gargantuan tasks, and he had to complete them alone.

Jiang Yi was not even 23 years old yet, and all these sounded unbelievable, but he didn’t regret anything. He had experienced so many things during these recent years that others might not experience in their entire lifetime. It was already a miracle for him to be alive until now; hence, he had a very calm mindset. His heart had obtained a promotion back at the Golden Crow Mystic Realm. He didn’t have any fear in his heart and was having a high fighting spirit instead.

Some things must be done in life, and if one didn’t struggle when one was young, wouldn’t they be regretting when they were old? Jiang Yi didn’t have the extravagant hope to ascend to the heavens. He simply wanted to leave a footprint with every step and accomplish all of his objectives. Or… die!

The path of the martial dao was long and filled with setbacks!

Jiang Yi believed that all the setbacks were the heavens tempering him. If he wanted to defy the heavens, he had to suffer the difficulties from the heavens.

Before the heavens could give one any huge responsibility, one would have to first suffer to empower one’s resolution. One would have to suffer fatigue so that one gained strength. One would have to suffer hunger, pain, and hards.h.i.+ps so that it would motivate one’s resolution. For when one endured all these, one would definitely benefit from them.

Without experiencing hards.h.i.+p, one would never grow. Jiang Yi always had a steady att.i.tude and never blamed the heavens or others for his difficulties as that was the behavior of a coward. A true expert would brave through the gloomy life, would brave through all challenges, and would brave through even in the face of death!

“Xiaonu, when you were young, you mentioned that Young Master has descended from the heavens, and I am destined to stand proud high up in the Nine Heavens. You have witnessed it during our journey, that no one could kill Young Master. Thus, you do not have to worry, as it should be the people on the East Imperial Continent that should worry. Hahaha, don’t cry… when Young Master kills my way through everything, find Mother, and rescue Ruoxue, our family will never be apart, okay?”

Jiang Yi gently wiped off the tears of the corner of Jiang Xiaonu’s eyes while he had this confident expression and tender eyes, which got Qianqian looking until she was intoxicated. This wasn’t an exaggeration that was always said by those hedonistic young masters. When it was spoken by Jiang Yi, Qianqian had this indescribable feeling that Jiang Yi would be able to do it. Furthermore, in the recent future, the entire Stellarsky Domain might… be trembling under the foot of this man!

“Young Master, Young Master, Young Master…”

Jiang Xiaonu pounced into Jiang Yi’s embrace and hugged him tightly while she muttered nonstop that even Jiang Yi’s heart got broken.

Jiang Yi didn’t say anything, reached out to hug Jiang Xiaonu, stroked her smooth and flawless back, and sniffed the delicate fragrance from her hair. He closed his eyes and spoke softly, “Xiaonu, wait for Young Master to return.”

After a long time…!

Jiang Xiaonu finally loosened her hand while Jiang Yi walked away heartlessly. He took a few deep glances at Jiang Xiaonu before his hands lit up with white light as he ripped through the void and used the Heaven Evasion to depart.

“Young Master…”

Jiang Xiaonu ran a few steps and wanted to grab onto Jiang Yi as she reached out her hands, but she caught nothing but air. She stood there and stared blankly as though she had lost her soul while tears rolled off her cheeks like rain and drenched her clothes.

Qianqian walked over softly, held onto Jiang Xiaonu’s hand, pulled it towards her, and said, “Little Sister Xiaonu, believe your Young Master. The skies of the Stellarsky Domain will one day be pierced through by your Young Master!”

“Qianqian!”

Jiang Xiaonu tearful eyes turned around as she spoke with while choking with emotions and said, “When Young Master returns, will he really marry me?”

“He will. I will use my life to promise you. When the next time you meet, your Young Master will marry you.”

Qianqian nodded repeatedly. Jiang Xiaonu had chosen to stay because Ao Lu got Qianqian to say that Jiang Yi will marry her after he returned. Jiang Xiaonu chose to believe Ao Lu as he was the ruler of the demon race. Of course, Ao Lu would also think of all ways to help Jiang Xiaonu comprehend the third stage of the Ink Feather Divine Art.

Jiang Xiaonu had a pure mind, but she wasn’t a fool.

During the battle at Sky Ascension Peak, she understood that she was truly too weak when compared to a true expert. If she was to follow Jiang Yi to the East Imperial Continent, she would only put a burden on Jiang Yi; hence, she chose to stay.

Despite already understanding the reason in her heart, she still had this ineffable feeling that the world had lost all colors when Jiang Yi left. She might not be standing alone, but when Qianqian, Black Deity, and Ao Lu looked at her, they had this feeling that—at this moment—this young woman had been abandoned by this world.

Black Deity originally wanted to bring Jiang Yi to the Heaven Fox Continent before going back to G.o.ds Bestow Island, but it was rejected by Jiang Yi. Black Deity’s speed was indeed fast, and it was absolutely safe with him around. However, Jiang Yi’s Heaven Evasion was even faster, and he had the Mirage Divine Ability, making this Endless Deep Sea a safe place for him.

His soul spirit had evolved and was stronger by a few times while his physical body had been reformed by the Dest.i.tute Dragon Gra.s.s. After cultivating for such a long time in G.o.ds Bestow City, his body was continually nurtured and was much tougher. Hence, he could use the Heaven Evasion to travel a longer distance as he traveled at least a billion miles in a single Heaven Evasion. When he felt a little uncomfortable, he flew out from the void.

He didn’t appear under the sea and was in the skies above it instead, and it was currently daytime. The sky was extremely clear, and the surface of the sea was nothing but serenity. There would be occasional flying by of little birds and the gentle sea breeze, which made it feel exceptionally satisfying.

Bang!

The surface of the sea suddenly burst open from far away as a giant Demon King revealed its sinister face. The two icy pincers drew across the sky and was going to thrust at Jiang Yi.

“Hmph!”

Demon Kings were of no threat to Jiang Yi, and he could destroy them with a flick of his finger. However, he didn’t want to fight as it might attract the nearby Demon Thearchs or even Demon Sovereigns.

His body flashed with white light as his appearance slowly transformed before he ultimately turned into Black Deity. His aura presence was exactly the same as Black Deity, too—even the prowess emitted from his body wasn’t any inferior to the Black Deity. This aura presence might obviously be an illusion, but how could a regular Demon King tell the difference? Even a Demon Thearch or a regular Demon Sovereign wouldn’t be able to differentiate. Just as the Demon King’s pincer was going to clam onto Jiang Yi, it actually rushed back into the sea with fear after Jiang Yi sent a cold glance at it, escaping without a trace.

“This Mirage Divine Ability is truly heaven-defying!”

Jiang Yi sighed with emotions and flew in a direction. His divine senses had scouted a small island head where he could rest and recuperate. After his body had completely recuperated, he would then set off for Heaven Fox Continent.
