Fury Towards The Burning Heaven-Chapter 1663 - Riches? Danger?

When he was younger, Jiang Yi’s dantian was sealed, making it impossible for him to cultivate. Later on, when the seal was broken, he gained a mysterious divine art called the Nameless Divine Art!

Later, he also obtained a pearl and a sword. This sword was even more mysterious: it was broken into seven parts. Now, he had only found four, but the sword was already comparable to a Dao Heaven Spiritual Treasure.

Only one person recognized this sword and its owner: the Earth Emanations Sovereign. Although the Earth Emanations Sovereign did not tell Jiang Yi about the origins of this sword, Jiang Yi knew that this sword was extremely precious. Its master must be extremely powerful.

The Earth Emanations Sovereign lived in a sea called the Thoughtless Sea. There was an island in the middle of that sea, called Nameless Island.

“Jiang Yi, you are a very lucky man. You must remember that even if you have to die, you cannot lose this sword!”

Jiang Yi recalled the Earth Emanations Sovereign’s words, and the passionate look he had in his eyes when he saw the sword. He was one of the most powerful people in the Earth Domain. Someone who could gain as much respect and authority as he did must be quite an extraordinary man.

The key thing was that the Fire Dragon Sword now had four parts merged to it already. He Nongying had already said before that it was comparable to the Dao Heaven Spiritual Treasure. If Jiang Yi managed to find the three remaining parts and the true artifact spirit, how powerful would this sword become? Although Jiang Yi did not know exactly how strong Primordial Spiritual Treasures were, he guessed that his sword would be comparable to those in the end.

Everything was starting to come together at last. The mysterious elder was the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch, Wu Ming? The Fire Dragon Sword that he had was the Heavenly Thearch’s divine weapon?

Jiang Yi dared not believe everything. After all, it all seemed too ridiculous.

A Heavenly Thearch, a supreme to the human race, actually sent his remnant soul to a small domain like the Stellarsky Domain? He even imparted his most valuable divine techniques to Jiang Yi? He even had the Fire Dragon Sword, a sword of limitless potential which reigned supreme?

Something isn’t right…

At this point, Jiang Yi became excited. The Heavenly Thearch’s divine equipment was so famous. It could not be that nobody knew about the Fire Dragon Sword. A few people in the Heaven Domain, like He Nongying, had clearly seen the sword before; but none of them looked surprised. This meant that this Fire Dragon Sword was not the real Fire Dragon Sword. Otherwise, countless people would have eyed the sword a long time ago. The four Supreme Thearchs would also be hot on Jiang Yi’s heels by now.

It doesn’t seem possible…

Jiang Yi pondered for a moment and tossed all the unrealistic thoughts aside for a moment. There were many talents in this world. Why would the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch choose him to be his successor? What’s more, as a Heavenly Thearch, if he wanted to groom a successor; would Jiang Yi still be at the cultivation level he was at today? Shouldn’t he probably be a King-Ranked martial artist by now, if not a Pseudo Thearch-Ranked martial artist?

Apart from imparting the Nameless Divine Art down to him, this elder gave Jiang Yi nothing. He found the various parts of the Fire Dragon Sword on his own. The most important thing was that if the Fire Dragon Sword was the Heavenly Thearch’s divine weapon, the young masters and young mistresses in the Heaven Domain would have recognized it by now. The elders of the Heaven Domain would also be searching high and low for it. After all, the Heavenly Thearch’s divine equipment would reign supreme in the world.

Jiang Yi did not dare to clarify such huge matters with He Nongying. If all he was thinking was true, there was a high chance that he would be hunted down by the four Supreme Thearchs themselves. Jiang Yi averted his gaze and asked, “Young Mistress He, you said that the Teleportation Formation that leads to the Earth Domain is located in Nine Yang City? Is Nine Yang City where the Nine Yang Army is located?”

“That’s right!”

He Nongying nodded and said, “The Nine Yang Army is nearby. The Nine Yang City is controlled by the thirty-six Heavenly Kings of the Nine Yang Army. Why? Jiang Yi, do you want to join the Nine Yang Army?”

“En!”

Jiang Yi nodded confidently and said, “Can I?”

“You’re already a God Thearch; of course, you can join the army.” He Nongying sighed softly and said, “I knew that you would not come back to Qilin Empress Peak with me. You are quite a male chauvinist, aren’t you? Forget it, be dismissed. Come with me later on, and I will bring you to the Nine Yang Army.”

“Thank you, Young Mistress He. I owe you a big favor. I will take my leave now.” Jiang Yi owed slightly and moved to undo the restrictions around the hall. Then, he walked out and disappeared into another castle.

He Nongying did not stand up to walk him out. Instead, she kept toying with the emerald bracelet in her hand. She sat there for a long time before she sighed and said, “I wonder if I made the right decision today. Jiang Yi, are you a lucky star or a bane? I hope that I did not save you just so that you could cause chaos among the human race…”

…

“Nine Yang Army!”

After Jiang Yi walked out of the castle, his eyes burned with passion. The Teleportation Formation was in the Nine Yang City. Once he had the chance, he would be able to teleport back to the Chaos Sea and then make his way back to the Earth Domain. What’s more, the Nine Yang City was filled with loyal subordinates of the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch. If he joined the Nine Yang Army, he would be able to find out more about the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch’s Fire Dragon Sword.

If the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch really was the mysterious elder in the Fire Dragon Sword, Jiang Yi would be rich. Of course, that would also mean he would be in big trouble.

There was no doubt that he would be rich. He would have a Heavenly Thearch’s divine weapon, a divine art imparted to him by the Heavenly Thearch himself, and the Nine Yang Army. Once he could be sure that he was the successor of the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch, the Nine Yang Army would likely take him to be their master!

The Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch personally disciplined and trained the army. Jiang Yi had no doubts about their loyalty to the Nine Yang Heavenly Thearch. What’s more, the mysterious elder’s remnant soul had not completely dissipated. With a single sentence from the mysterious elder, he would be able to take the strongest army in the Heaven Domain under his wing and use them to rule over the domain. Reigning supreme would not be a problem then.

It was also understandable why he would be in more trouble!

The Heavenly Thearch was already dead, and the four Supreme Thearchs submitted to no one. Everyone wanted more power; all of them would want to get their hands on the Heavenly Thearch’s divine weapon. If Jiang Yi were a King-Ranked martial artist, he would not fear anyone. However, the problem was that he was not. It would be extremely easy for the four Supreme Thearchs to kill him.

“Without enough power and security, I cannot expose my identity and the Fire Dragon Sword; neither can I tell anyone about the mysterious elder!”

Whether the Fire Dragon Sword was really a Heavenly Thearch’s divine weapon or not, Jiang Yi decided not to take it out unnecessarily in the future. Otherwise, if he exposed the mysterious elder’s identity, it would not be a joke. A single shred of suspicion in the four Supreme Thearchs might result in him perishing.

Once he returned to the inn, he discovered that the furniture inside had become new. The attendant was waiting outside. When he saw Jiang Yi approaching, he quickly lowered his head and bowed, saying, “Lord, you’re back? I thought you would stay in the City Lord Manor.”

“I will leave in a day. Here are ten thousand divine roots. I accidentally leaked some heavenly powers while I was cultivating. Destroy the furniture; I will pay for it.”

Jiang Yi took ten thousand divine roots from his bag and handed it over to the attendant who did not dare to take it. After all, Jiang Yi was from the He Clan. Nevertheless, Jiang Yi insisted that he took it and said in a cold tone, “I am going into seclusion to cultivate. Don’t disturb me if there’s nothing important.”

The attendant did not grow in the least bit suspicious. Instead, he backed away. Jiang Yi entered his room, and his head began to hurt. He still had to wait for another day. Would the scabs on his face still remain? How would he meet other people then? If people began to get suspicious, even He Nongying would not take him away.

“Risk it!”

Jiang Yi gritted his teeth and decided he would not heal his wounds. He would let nature take its course. Then, there would be scars on his face, which would make him look beyond ugly. What’s more, doing this meant that he would never be able to heal his face in the future. Not unless… Jiang Yi burned himself again and used the divine tree leaf to heal himself.

So be it!

Jiang Yi was going all-out. Even if he made it to the Nine Yang Army, he would not be able to show his true looks to others. Leaving scars would be good to keep his disguise up. After all, he had already been burned twice. One more time would not make a difference.

Men had to be ruthless towards themselves.
