Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Panda Novel

Within an hour, Qi Tianchen arrived.

Even though it had been two years, Qi Tianchen still looked the same. However, when he saw Jiang Yi after entering the inn, he almost cried. Qi Tianchen dismissed his men, grabbed Jiang Yi’s hand, and said, “Young Master, do you know that we have been looking for you so desperately over the past two years that we have almost gone crazy? If you weren’t going to show yourself anytime soon, we would all be dismembered alive by Young Mistress Qianqian…”

“Hehe!”

Jiang Yi scratched his nose as he was slightly embarrassed. He said apologetically, “Brother Qi, this is all my fault. Ah, since Qianqian knows, does Xiaonu know that I had gone missing? Did she do anything foolish? Do the people of Sin Island know, too?”

“Xiaonu?”

Qi Tianchen’s eyes blinked. He looked confused as he said, “Who is Xiaonu? The people from Sin Island all know. They have their own sources of information and had been sending people to look for you all over. Your brother Qian Wanguan almost ran here, to the East Imperial Continent, to look for you. If Situ Ao did not give a death order and sent men to watch Qian Wanguan, who knows what trouble he could have caused?”

“Oh, oh!”

Jiang Yi was relieved. If Jiang Xiaonu had come to the East Imperial Continent, the Shadow Emperor would have sent Qi Tianchen to go and protect her. Since Qi Tianchen did not know, it seemed that Ao Lu and the Shadow Emperor had managed to cover things up.

“Hehe.”

Hearing news of Wanguan, Jiang Yi felt a little warmth in his heart. This lad had already gotten married, but it seemed like his temper had not changed a bit.

Thinking of Qian Wanguan, Jiang Yi then thought of Zhan Wushuang. When he left, he had made a deal with Zhan Wushuang: the day that Jiang Yi’s identity was exposed would be the day that Zhan Wushuang would come to the East Imperial Continent. Based on that, Zhan Wushuang should have come to the East Imperial Continent. Jiang Yi hurriedly asked, “Brother Qi, do you know where Zhan Wushuang is? She could have come to the East Imperial Continent.”

“Zhan Wushuang?”

Qi Tianchen’s face became confused again. He shook his head and said, “I do not know. I have not received any news regarding this person. Over these few years, I have never heard of someone in the East Imperial Continent with that name.”

“Oh!”

Jiang Yi’s face darkened. Qi Tianchen was responsible for collecting information. If he had not heard of Zhan Wushuang, there were two possibilities: one was that Zhan Wushuang had died, and another was that Zhan Wushuang had changed her name and had sneaked into the East Imperial Continent with Qian Wanguan’s help. Thus, no one knew of his existence.

Jiang Yi thought for a moment and said, “Please immediately send a message to Sin Island to let Wanguan and the rest know that I’m safe. At the same time, ask about Xiaonu, and Zhan Wushuang, and the current situation on Sin Island.”

“Alright!”

Qi Tianchen took out a message token and relayed the instruction. He then looked at Jiang Yi and said, “My brother, where have you been the past two years? Why have you not contacted me?”

“It’s a long story…”

Jiang Yi sighed slightly, thought of Qi Tianyu, and said guiltily, “Brother Qi, I have failed you guys. Qi Tianyu and the rest had died in battle. This is all my fault.”

Buzz!

The Ancient Divine Essence Ring in Jiang Yi’s hands lit up, and two iron awls appeared. From one look it was obvious that these awls were no common objects. There were mysterious patterns on them, and they were emanating an ancient and almighty aura. He handed the two awls to Qi Tianchen and said, “This is an ancient artifact. Its power is considerable. Of course, this object cannot bring back Qi Tianyu and the rest. I just want to give you something to make amends…”

“This?”

Qi Tianchen’s face darkened and stared at Jiang Yi. “Jiang Yi, what are you doing? It is true that Qi Tianyu and the rest had died in battle. However, they did not die in vain. Didn’t you kill five Demigods from the Wu Clan? The Qi Clan is in your debt because of what had happened in Endless Deep Sea. If it wasn’t for you, the Qi Clan would long have perished. Not just Tianyu and the rest—even if the entire Qi Clan had to perish, that would not be a big matter. Please keep these awls. Knowing that you mean well, Tianyu and others can also die in peace.”

“Please take it, Brother Qi. This is something that I got from the Snow Region. It is the weapon of a Demigod. I cannot use it well; there is no point in me holding onto it.”

Jiang Yi gave the Reliance Awls to Qi Tianchen. These awls were the weapon of choice for the generations of Clan Heads from the Dwarf Race; their power was definitely significant. Since Jiang Yi had the Smelting Divine Furnace, he was naturally ill-suited for close combat. He had no use for them.

“The Snow Region? A Demigod?” Qi Tianchen’s eyes flashed as he asked, astonished. “Could this be the weapon of the Dwarf Race Clan Head?”

“Oh? You know this, too?” Jiang Yi asked in surprise.

“How could I not know? The Dwarf Race is one of the Snow Region Ten Sects! Many great family clans of the East Imperial Continent have been collecting information about them.”

Qi Tianchen examined the Reliance Awls over and over again. He saw three small words at the handle of the Reliance Awls. He was slightly emotional as he said, “These are indeed the Reliance Awls. Brother, this gift is too precious. I do not dare to keep it. How did you get your hands on it?”

“By killing someone of course,” Jiang Yi answered casually. He then became serious as he said, “What is so precious about it? Brother Qi, if you reject this gift again, I will not look for your help ever again.”

“By killing someone?”

Qi Tianchen’s body shook as he exclaimed with shock. “You killed the Dwarf Race Clan Head?”

“En.”

Qiu Shan had indeed died in his hands. Jiang Yi also didn’t want to explain that much. He casually said, “These two years, I made a trip to the Snow Region. Ruoxue had been taken by the Heaven Hidden Sect. I created a ruckus in the Snow Region and killed some people as well as a few Demigods. I have not managed to save Ruoxue but have returned to the East Imperial Continent first.”

“Uh…”

Qi Tianchen’s eyes narrowed. This young master was indeed an unlucky star; there was trouble wherever he went. He had killed a few Demigods in the Snow Region, and yet, he still managed to return alive? Historically, there have been few who had dared cause trouble in the Snow Region and lived to tell the tale.

More than a hundred thousand years ago, the North Thearch’s Wu Clan had even thought of subjugating the Snow Region. The Wu Clan had sent more than ten Demigods and a million-strong army. In the end, the million-strong army did not return; out of the Demigods that went, only two came back. The North Thearch of that time was infuriated and personally went to the Snow Region. However, he too came back dejectedly. Ever since then, there was no more mention of this matter and no more sending of troops.

Qi Tianchen was very clear that all in the Snow Region were ancient races from ancient times. The races there have lived there for entire generations and were exceptionally anti-outsiders. Whoever dared to cause trouble in the Snow Region would be dealt with by the combined might of the entire region. Even so many Demigods and the huge army from the North Thearch’s clans were not able to accomplish much; yet, Jiang Yi had gone alone and not only caused trouble there but had also returned safely.

If not for the fact that Qi Tianchen knew that Jiang Yi was not boastful and would not lie, he would never have believed Jiang Yi. Even so, Qi Tianchen was shocked to the core and took a long while before he recovered himself.

Jiang Yi did not want to talk much about what had happened in the Snow Region. The mention of the Snow Region would make him think of Su Ruoxue, and his heart would ache. Hence, Jiang Yi changed the subject and asked, “Brother Qi, is your place safe? I want to pay a visit to Danni and the two children. Are they well?”

“Oh, yes, it’s safe!”

Qi Tianchen came to his senses and hurriedly said. “The bodies of Tianyu and company had all been burned. Even if the North Thearch’s Wu Clan pursued the matter, they would not be able to find any traces. We were not exposed. Madam and the two children are very good. Let’s go back to Black Flag City first.”

Qi Tianchen brought Jiang Yi out of the city and took out a huge Heaven Fate Ship, and they flew straight to Black Flag City. This Heaven Fate Ship’s speed was not bad; they reached Black Flag City within three days.

To be safe, Jiang Yi disembarked from the Heaven Fate Ship outside the city. He then sneaked into the backyard of the Qi Clan. Qi Tianchen had already brought Danni and the two children out, and they were waiting for him.

“Young master!”

Jiang Yi had changed his appearance, but Hu Danni still recognized him instantly. She flew into Jiang Yi’s arms and started crying incessantly. Jiang Yi looked at Qi Tianchen, slightly embarrassed. The latter revealed a knowing gaze that only men knew and silently coaxed the two children away. Before he left, he sent a voice transmission and said: “Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Take things easy. I have prepared a welcome banquet tonight. You’d better be able to get up…”
