Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 110: Purple Charm Divine Light

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Under the poor illumination of the darkness, it was hard to even take a clear look of Elder Hong’s face, especially when he was clad in black. He seemed to know that Jiang Yi was inside the carriage. When he saw Su Ruoxue holding onto her sword to obstruct him, he bellowed, “Get lost!”

Su Ruoxue’s expression didn’t change as she looked at Elder Hong calmly and said indifferently, “Not unless I die!”

“Then die!”

Elder Hong’s eyes flashed of killing intent. The Zhangsun Clan had specific orders for him to not kill Su Ruoxue unless necessary, but he didn’t bother anymore. His body drifted with the clear breeze. That crooked body gave off an unstoppable feeling even though he didn’t release any aura presence.

“Buzz!”

Su Ruoxue didn’t move an inch, and when Elder Hong was about ten feet away from her, her pair of beautiful eyes glowed with a demonic purple light. Two purple rays flashed as it was shot towards Elder Hong.

“En?”

Elder Hong let out a voice of surprise, but his body didn’t even pause for a moment. He forcefully bent his body to dodge Su Ruoxue’s attack with ease. The purple light went straight and entered the cliffs without any sound or presence.

“Purple Charm Divine Light? Are you a member of the Su Clan?”

Elder Hong gradually lifted his head and revealed a wrinkle-filled face. There was some hesitation in his eyes as he thought about whether he should make a move or not.

After Su Ruoxue released her secret art, she appeared to be pale. Her delicate body swayed as she laughed coldly. “My name is Su Ruoxue, and I am naturally a member of the Su Clan. Are you afraid? Back off this instant before Principal Qi returns, or else even your lord will be implicated, too.”

“What a joke! Do you think this place is your Great Xia Kingdom?”

Elder Hong scoffed, and his body turned into a hawk as he attacked with lightning speed. He shot out an essence force mid-air that pierced Su Ruoxue’s left shoulder and blasted her off before she had the time to release her secret art.

Jiang Yi is finished...

Su Ruoxue closed her eyes as she gave up all hope. A Soul Travel Realm expert was too strong, and she totally wasn’t a match.

“Chirp-Chirp!”

Right at this moment, a familiar chirping sound resonated beside her ears. What stunned Su Ruoxue was that when the chirping sound was heard, Elder Hong—who was about to rush in and kill Jiang Yi—had this sudden change in expression. He quickly retreated and vanished into the dense dark night in a few blinks of the eye.

What is happening?

Su Ruoxue endured the tearing pain in her left shoulder and stood up painfully. She blinked her eyes with confusion, wondering why did the opposition pay such a huge price to even activate a Soul Travel Realm expert. Wasn’t it to kill Jiang Yi? If it was so, why did he give up at the final juncture?

“Can it be that Principal Qi and the rest are back?”

Su Ruoxue took out a recuperation elixir and consumed it before wrapping up the wounded area on her left shoulder. She didn’t see any shadows or figures of Principal Qi and the other two Vice Principals. The commotion that was deep in the valley was soon appeased, and some mentors had returned as well. This allowed Su Ruoxue to be completely at ease. But her heart was still filled with doubt. She still couldn’t understand why that Soul Travel Realm expert would retreat so abruptly... and with such resolution?

...

Elder Hong had no choice be to retreat!

But that signal was sent by a member of the Zhangsun Clan, saying that Zhangsun Wuji was in danger!

As the secret guard of Zhangsun Wuji, his most important task was to ensure the safety of Zhangsun Wuji. Now that Zhangsun Wuji was in danger, he naturally didn’t dare to touch Jiang Yi. If Zhangsun Wuji was to die, he was certainly going to die, too. Even his entire family had to die!

“Swish!”

Elder Hong’s speed had reached the extreme, and his wrinkled face was filled with fury. He couldn’t think of which stupid fool would actually dare touch the Young Clan Head of the Divine Martial Kingdom’s no.1 Great Clan? Aren’t they afraid their nine generations would be exterminated?

He quickly passed through the valley and was even more furious when he swept his glance across. Over ten guards that were meant to protect Zhangsun Wuji had all been killed. What’s more, all their heads were burst apart in a tragic manner.

In the nearby vicinity, there were guards, mentors, and countless cadets of the college that observed from a distance. Jiang Yiliu was also standing from a distance at the side. But no one dared to go near Zhangsun Wuji’s carriage, because... Zhangsun Wuji’s head was actually pressed out of the window, and a razor-sharp long saber was actually prepped at his neck!

“Elder Hong!”

A member of the Zhangsun Clan quickly came over. He lowered his voice and said with a severe expression, “His Highness says that the one who is assaulting the Young Clan Head is Jiang Yi’s old servant. His name is Jiang Yunhai, and he is a Soul Travel Realm expert! What should we do?”

“Fool!”

Elder Hong was infuriated. If he had known that Jiang Yi had an old servant who was at the Soul Travel Realm, he definitely would not have tried to kill Jiang Yi. Wasn’t this like risking his life? It was fortunate that he didn’t kill Jiang Yi in the end. If not, Zhangsun Wuji’s head wouldn’t be outside of the window but on the ground instead.

“Old dog! If you have the guts, kill me!”

As the most elite class young master of the Divine Martial Kingdom, Zhangsun Wuji had never suffered such treatment before. No one ever reprimanded him since he was young until now. But right now, he was in such a pathetic state in public, and especially... when Princess Yun Fei was watching from a distance!

His malicious eyes were filled with wrath, and he couldn’t wait to let Jiang Yunhai suffer from thousands of slashes. But he wasn’t so stupid to recklessly move about; he just went on with his cursing and swearing.

The white-haired Jiang Yunhai didn’t show any hint of emotion. He let out a faint smile when he heard what Zhangsun Wuji said. His other hand, which held onto the crutches, swung down on Zhangsun Wuji’s leg with lightning speed. The sound of bone snapping echoed soon after, which caused Zhangsun Wuji’s face to change from the pain. But he was considered a tough fellow as he endured the pain and didn’t even utter a single sound.

“Shut up! If not, I will crack your nuts!”

Jiang Yunhai spoke indifferently and glared at Elder Hong who walked over slowly. He then stated with a cold voice, “Young Master Zhangsun. I, Jiang Yunhai, have no one but myself, and my Young Lord is my everything. Why didn’t you ask for my opinion when you decided to touch him? Not just you—even if the heavens dare to touch my Young Lord, I will risk my life to fight against it!”

“Release my Young Clan Head! Let’s settle this in peace, shall we?”

Elder Hong walked over swiftly, but his body didn’t have any presence of essence force being released. He was afraid that Jiang Yunhai would mistake his approach and kill Zhangsun Wuji. Seeing that Jiang Yunhai didn’t have any reaction, he lowered his voice and said, “Principal Qi and the rest are coming soon. If you don’t go now, you might not have the opportunity to do so.”

“Haha!”

Jiang Yunhai laughed faintly and finally spoke, “So what if I cannot leave? What is there to regret with the Young Clan Head of the Zhangsun Clan buried together with me?”

“You...”

Elder Hong was bursting with fury. He withheld his killing intent as he said, “Jiang Yi is currently safe, and plenty of our men are dead. What more do you want?”

“Hmph!”

Jiang Yunhai seemed to already know that Jiang Yi wasn’t dead. He didn’t even ask a single question about Jiang Yi. Both his long brows lifted as he said, “I don’t want anything. I just want to inform all of you—since you dare to touch my Young Lord, then you have to pay the price. It is either Zhangsun Wuji die or you die! Take your pick.”

“Old dog? You dare!”

Zhangsun Wuji’s pupils shrank, and he began to roar with anger. But his cursing was soon silenced as his other leg was broken by Jiang Yunhai.

“Young Clan Head. I shall trouble you for taking care of my family!”

Elder Hong let out a distressing expression. He knew clearly what Jiang Yunhai meant. If he didn’t die today, Jiang Yunhai would never let Zhangsun Wuji off. Jiang Yunhai wanted to make use of his death to send a message to those that wanted to claim Jiang Yi’s life. If anyone dared to touch Jiang Yi, they would have to anticipate Jiang Yunhai’s frenzied revenge.

“Bang!”

Elder Hong was a dead man; even if Zhangsun Wuji was only crippled, he was definitely dead. This was why Elder Hong resolutely circulated his essence force and slammed it on his own head. The formidable essence force instantly burst his head apart as he fell to the ground... dead.

“Ah—!”

Uproar happened while some female cadets screamed. Princess Yun Fei didn’t have any change in expression while Jiang Yiliu’s entire face turned dark, but his expression changed again.

Jiang Yunhai shot out from the carriage and flew towards the distant. When his body was about to be concealed by the forest, he suddenly turned his head and sent a hidden telepathic message to Jiang Yiliu: “Jiang Yiliu, 50 years ago, I followed your grandfather to kill. I killed more people than the number of cadets in your college. If you dare provoke my Young Lord again, not even Jiang Bieli can protect you...”
