Chapter 719: Take Him Out!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The Black Wind Mountain Range was very big and had a radius of 100,000 miles. There were plenty of ravines here, and the terrain was peculiar. Furthermore, there was a very special stone in this place, the Black Cloud Stone.

The Black Cloud Stone wasn’t a valuable stone, but it was one of the materials to produce artifacts. Thus, by occupying the Black Wind Mountain Range, one would be able to constantly excavate Black Cloud Stones to earn celestial stones. If the Black Wind Legion was able to occupy this mountain range, it was already a symbol of strength.

“Eh? There is a fog?”

After Jiang Yi entered the Black Wind Mountain Range, he didn’t fly in the sky and ran close to the mountain range. However, after entering more than a few hundred miles into the mountain range, there was a fog that suddenly appeared at the front. He had just released his Divine Perception to check the place earlier and didn’t spot any white fog, making him rather surprised.

“A high-grade illusion array is activated? It seems like the Black Wind Legion knows that I am here.”

Jiang Yi mulled over it, decided not to sneak around, and soared into the sky. When in the sky, the Fire Cloud Armor appeared on his body while he made use of the Union of Heaven and Man state to check the surroundings. He then increased his speed by several folds and flew deep into the mountain range.

Swish!

After increasing his speed, he was like a bolt of red lightning that drew across the white fog. He took less than ten minutes to flew into the deeper parts of the mountain range.

The fog was getting thicker as he went further inside, and Jiang Yi paused in mid-air!

He didn’t notice the location of the Black Wind Legion, but he could feel a subtle killing aura. If he wasn’t in the Union of Heaven and Man state, he would never be able to feel it. When in this state, his senses were several tens or even a hundred folds more sensitive; and nothing was able to escape his detection in the nearby vicinity.

“I am Sky Thunder City’s Lone Wolf. I am here as per your request.”

He exited from the Union of Heaven and Man state and scanned the surroundings with lightning speed. He then shouted in a heavy voice, “Would the Commander of the Black Wind Legion please come out to meet me!”

His voice wasn’t loud or soft, but there was nothing but silence in the surroundings so his voice traveled very far away and echoed back from the high mountains.

Chi! Chi!

There was a white light that lit up from below, and the white fog suddenly reduced significantly while he could hear plenty of air-piercing sounds from the surroundings. Jiang Yi’s eyes shot out with chilling light while he revealed a cold intent from the corner of his mouth. He didn’t even have to see the surroundings to know that there were at least thousands of martial artists that flew out from the white fog and that he had been surrounded.

“Hahaha!”

Upright laughter could be heard from below while hundreds of martial artists rose up at the front. It was a Heaven Monarch wearing black armor who flew up with hundreds of men.

Looking through the misty white fog, Jiang Yi locked his eyes onto the laughing expert which was a middle-stage Heaven Monarch. His entire body was covered in black armor; even his head had a helmet which only allowed him to see a pair of indistinct eyes. Those eyes looked abstruse and mystical, as though it could attract someone’s sight and trap them inside his eyes.

“En? He is actually soul spirit cultivator?”

Jiang Yi was alarmed. This person’s soul spirit was very powerful, and his eyes could let you fall into some illusion zone. Fortunately, Jiang Yi’s soul spirit wasn’t weak; otherwise, he wouldn’t even know how he died.

However, at this moment, he didn’t immediately awaken and maintain the state as though his sights were still being attracted. He waited for more than ten breaths before he pretended to wake up from a shock while revealing an appalled expression.

“Hahaha!”

The opposing soul spirit expert laughed even louder as he locked his indistinct eyes on Jiang Yi and said, “I am the Commander of the Black Wind Legion, Gui Ying. Lone Wolf, you came rather quickly, huh? Have you brought along 100 million celestial stones?”

Jiang Yi’s expression regained his composure as he spoke calmly, “Gui Ying, I am just a small figure trying to make a living in Sky Thunder City. I just earn a few million celestial stones every year. I wouldn’t be able to give you 100 million celestial stones even if you rip me apart!”

“Hur-Hur!”

Gui Ying sneered and said, “Lone Wolf, don’t try and act like a pauper. Do you think I don’t know what have you been doing? Since I could kidnap that fatty, I naturally investigated every detail about you. Less nonsense, if you don’t have the celestial stones, then I have to kill the hostage. Mmm… in fact, the armor on you looks good. Take it off for me, and I can give you a discount of 10 million celestial stones.”

As long as one wasn’t blind, they would be able to see that the Fire Cloud Armor was extraordinary; and this Gui Ying sure had some scheme to scam Jiang Yi’s pseudo-divine artifact. However, he didn’t try to snatch it forcefully and was probably thinking to get it after he got the 100 million celestial stones. After all, if Jiang Yi was able to unify Sky Thunder City, his strength couldn’t just be from his appearance; and the 105 Heaven Monarchs that he brought along had yet to reveal themselves.

Jiang Yi didn’t continue to say anything else and simply closed his eyes to scout around. Since the opposition didn’t want to start a fight immediately, then he didn’t have to hurry and should be clear of the situation first.

There are indeed more than 100 Heaven Monarchs. There are at least 150 of them. En… five of them are middle-stage Heaven Monarchs. The one on the left, behind, and this Gui Ying have aura presences that aren’t weaker than Chief Leng. It seems like Lu Ping’s information is correct.

After sensing everything carefully, Jiang Yi realized there were at least more than 10,000 individuals lying in ambush at the nearby white fog. There were all led by Heaven Monarchs, standing proud in the air, with their weapons ready while wearing stern expressions. They were ready to rush over and rip him up at any moment.

“Gui Ying!”

He opened his eyes and shouted, “Where is the hostage?”

Gui Ying didn’t do anything and asked in return, “Where are my celestial stones?”

“When I see the hostage, you will naturally see the celestial stones!”

Jiang Yi didn’t want to say superfluous words anymore. Since Gui Ying knew him so well, there wasn’t even a need for negotiation. If he could use 100 million celestial stones to exchange for Qian Wanguan’s safe return, he wouldn’t hesitate even for a moment.

“Bring the hostage here!”

Gui Ying waved his hand while a few hundred martial artists flew up before two Heaven Monarchs brought Qian Wanguan to the front. The fatty didn’t suffer any abuse; neither were there any obvious injuries on his body. He was just immobilized as he was restrained by two individuals.

“Boss!”

Qian Wanguan shouted out from far away while his voice sounded like it was choked with emotions. However, he quickly calmed down and transmitted a message with gritted teeth: “Boss, don’t care about me. This matter is very strange, and celestial stones wouldn’t be enough for this pack of hungry wolves. I reckon that… their mastermind is Lu Di! If you don’t escape now, you will also fall in this place. Hurry up and go!”

Jiang Yi raised his brows and transmitted a message with a cold voice: “What nonsense are you talking about? If I don’t care about you, who will?”

He ignored Qian Wanguan and looked at Gui Ying and said, “Gui Ying, let the hostage go first. I already have the celestial stones. You already have so many people around, and I cannot escape either.”

“Hahaha!”

Gui Ying revealed a smear of mockery and said, “Lone Wolf, do you think I am a three-year-old? I will not let the hostage go even with one less celestial stone. Enough of the nonsense. If you don’t hand over the celestial stones, you little brother will die in front of you.”

Jiang Yi asked in return, “Gui Ying, I am also not a three-year-old. What if you don’t release the hostage after I hand the celestial stones to you, and you might even make a move to kill me here? How can I trust you?”

Gui Ying spread out his hands and sneered. “You cannot do anything about it. You can only trust me as you… have no choice!”

Jiang Yi went silent and thought for a moment before gritting his teeth and said, “Let’s do it like this. I will give you 50 million celestial stones first. After you release the hostage, I will give you the rest!”

“80 million, not even one less!” Gui Ying negotiated the price resolutely, and his eyes had turned cold as he didn’t want to continue to bicker with Jiang Yi.

“Alright!”

Jiang Yi’s ancient divine essence ring flashed constantly as he took out eight ancient divine essence rings and shot it at Gui Ying with a swing of his arm. “Every ancient divine essence ring has 10 million celestial stones. A total of 80 million!”

Gui Ying caught them with a single hand and scanned inside with his divine senses. After confirming that the number of celestial stones was correct, he nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand while saying, “Okay, release him!”

The two Heaven Monarchs loosened their grip. As Qian Wanguan regained his freedom, he flew towards Jiang Yi with his fastest speed. The latter’s eyes lit up and relaxed. As long as Qian Wanguan could return safely, 100 million celestial stones weren’t considered anything. They just had to think of a way to earn them back by selling more thunder stones.

Who knew—?!

As Qian Wanguan was flying, Gui Ying’s eyes flashed two rays of light and shot at Qian Wanguan. He then roared out at the same time, “Brothers! Take him out!”
