Jiang Yi then looked better. It was not that he was stingy, but there should be a limit to help people. He only had 10 billion celestial stones with him. If he spent over 6 billion now, what if he needed celestial stones in the future? Would he have to become a bandit and rob others?
Tantai Shi continued. “Actually, there are some merchant associations in the black market, which charge a lower price. One person only cost 10 million, or even 1 million. Of course, it comes with greater risk and a much slower speed.”
Jiang Yi asked seriously, “How about the third way?”
Tantai Shi paused and replied. “The third way is faster and safer. It will only take about a few days to get to the Heaven State Region. We need to find Divine Pattern Masters in the big merchant association and ask them to take us past the Void Ancient Path. We will cross hundreds of millions of kilometers every time. In addition, the Divine Pattern Masters don’t care about who you are. As long as you pay the celestial stones, they will transport you. Of course... the price is absurd. It takes 10 billion celestial stones every time!”
Jiang Yi rolled his eyes. All his celestial stones would be gone instantly, what would he use in the future? He had seen Divine Pattern Masters before. In the Blood Night Fearsome Sea, when he was chased by She Fei and Jian Wuying, they relied on Astrologers and Divine Pattern Masters.
“Hundreds of millions of kilometers?”
Jiang Yi sneered. His Heaven Evasion could travel hundreds of millions of kilometers every time, and he could do it any minute. If it was not for fear of being seen by others, he would have already left by Heaven Evasion. The other shortcoming of Heaven Evasion was that he had no idea of what he would end up. What if he appeared in a big city straight away, he would be doomed.
“It seems like we have to use the Heaven Fate Ship.”
Jiang Yi frowned. Safety was guaranteed on the Tang Clan’s Heaven Fate Ship. It wouldn’t take a long time as well and only require one year to reach the Buddha Thearch City. Over this one year, he could cultivate his essence force and comprehend dao patterns to improve his strength further.
He soon made up his mind and said in a deep voice, “Tell Song Zhong to contact the Tang Clan and ordered tickets for their Heaven Fate Ship. Em... I am only responsible for you and your two kids. Let Song Zhong and his group return to the Heaven State Region on their own. Besides, warn them not to say anything about me.”
“Yes, my Lord!”
Tantai Shi nodded heavily. Jiang Yi worried too much. Song Zhong and his group were all Tantai Shi’s soul slaves. Tantai Shi had already given the order. They would rather die than disobey her order.
Song Zhong left by himself. It took him four hours to find the branched hall of the Tang Clan merchant association. He also booked the tickets. A Heaven Fate Ship would pass this place in eight days. They would get on the ship and set for the Heaven State Region. However, that Heaven Fate Ship wouldn’t travel past the Heaven Flame City. Its destination was not the Buddha Thearch City ether, but the Dragon Elephant Region which was further north.
Jiang Yi was not worried. According to Tantai Shi, the Tang Clan had its branches in every city and tens of thousands of Heaven Fate Ships moving around on the East Imperial Continent. They could take the other Heaven Fate Ships to go to wherever they wished to go.
Song Zhong and his group also booked the tickets for themselves. The Heaven Fate Ship that they took had a lower standard and belonged to a medium-sized merchant association. It wasn’t very expensive. It only cost about 20 million celestial stones for all of them.
Jiang Yi didn’t pay attention to them. If he didn’t promise Xiao Yu that he would bring her back and if the two kids weren’t in a pitiful state, he wouldn’t want to bring Tantai Shi with him. It was not because of the celestial stones, this woman was too beautiful and easily invited trouble.
The group spent eight days resting in the inn and never stepped out of the inn. Once the time was up, Jiang Yi took Tantai Shi and her two kids were about to leave. When the two kids knew that the maidservants wouldn’t come with them, they immediately burst out crying. They grew up in the care of the maidservants. Two of the maidservants were like their wet nurses. Their feelings towards these two maidservants were no less than that to Tantai Shi.
Looking at the crying children, Jiang Yi had no choice but to let these two maidservants come along with them. Two hundred million celestial stones were nothing to him. Tantai Shi seemed like she didn’t know how to take care of children.
The two kids stopped crying and smiled. Jiang Yi said to Song Zhong, “You follow us, too. Let them leave by themselves.”
“Many thanks, My Lord!”
Song Zhong knelt on the ground excitedly. The other guards and maidservants let out envious looks. It was completely safe to follow Jiang Yi. They might very likely die on the way on the normal Heaven Fate Ship.
Jiang Yi wasn’t going to care about the other men. He took Song Zhong as it was difficult for him to personally do a lot of things. Song Zhong was pretty good at completing his tasks. Jiang Yi waved his hand coldly. Tantai Shi looked at the other maidservants lovingly and left in tears. Song Zhong told something to a mid-tier Heaven Monarch before quickly following up.
Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!
They arrived at a castle on the carriage. Everything was handled by Song Zhong. Jiang Yi tossed 600 million celestial stones to Song Zhong, who quickly entered the merchant association. Soon, he went out with a few command tokens. “My Lord, My Lady, it’s all set. Let’s wait outside the north city gate. The Heaven Fate Ship will arrive in one hour.”
The carriage went straight to the north city gate. There were already hundreds of men waiting here. It seemed like they were all going to the Tang Clan’s Heaven Fate Ship. Jiang Yi saw a lot of luxury chariots, too. They should belong to members of some medium and small-sized clans.
Swish! Swish!
After one hour, a loud air-piercing sound came from the east. Everyone looked over. Jiang Yi’s heart suddenly quivered. This Heaven Fate Ship was at least three kilometers long and was all black as if it was built by iron water. It flew over like a colossal beast and gave people an extremely depressive feeling.
The Heaven Fate Ship was very fast. Just now, it was several kilometers away. In a blink of an eye, it was already over their heads. The Heaven Fate Ship stopped and quietly floated in the mid-air. It was like a castle floating in the air.
Buzz!
The black shield around the Heaven Fate Ship was turned off. Squads of guards in black armor with powerful aura appeared on the deck. Jiang Yi casually detected before nodding in secret.
This Tang Clan’s Heaven Fate Ship was indeed safer. Put aside the name of the Tang Clan, there were at least 5,000 guards on the ship, who were all upper-tier Heaven Monarchs. At least, fifty of them were peak-stage Heaven Monarch commanders. These guards were strong enough to destroy a big bandit legion.
“Even the commanders are peak-stage Heaven Monarch Realm martial experts. The martial expert presides over the ship should be at least a five-star martial expert.”
Naturally, there wouldn’t be any Demigod martial expert presiding over a Heaven Fate Ship. However, there were weaker and stronger peak-stage Heaven Monarchs. Those who comprehended special dao patterns possessed strange divine skills or had Spiritual Connecting cardinal treasures would be stronger.
According to Ao Lu, Jiang Yi was considered as a three-star martial expert. If he had two Spiritual-Connecting cardinal treasures, his combat strength would be much stronger; and he might reach the four-star level. If he cultivated his realm to the peak stage of the Heaven Monarch, perhaps, he would become a five-star martial artist. However, it was impossible to reach the six-star level. Ao Lu said that the most powerful peak-stage Heaven Monarch Realm absolute experts could only be at five stars. Anyone above that would be a Demigod.
“Influence!”
Jiang Yi was reminded of the Influence that Ao Lu told him before. He thought in secret that if he had the opportunity to see battles between peak-stage Heaven Monarchs, he would sense the Influence by the way. In the future, he could also try to judge one’s real combat power by his ‘Influence’.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Numerous people flew to the Heaven Fate Ship with command tokens on their hands. Those without the tokens wouldn’t dare to go up as well. Jiang Yi and his group were not in a hurry. Anyway, they would have a separate cabin with their command token. The Heaven Fate Ship was so big and should have at least tens of thousands of cabins.
“Let’s go and see what is special about the Tang Clan’s Heaven Fate Ship!”
After waiting for most of the people below to fly up, Jiang Yi waved his hand and the group all rose, flying towards the mobile castle in the sky.
