Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 1066: Flower Fairy

After having such an intimate exchange, Jiang Yi and Yin Ruobing fell silent again. This time, it was even more awkward.

The two were like two small birds with broken wings; they wanted to break free and fly into the sky. However, they were afraid to leave the cage. They knew that once they left, they would fall and be smashed into bits.

Fortunately, one hour passed very fast. Not far away—from the middle of the mountain, the spring water sudden fluctuated its speed, falling down fast and then slowly. It was as if the spring water was burping.

As the spring water flowing out was a gush and then a trickle—fast then slow, the small river at the midpoint of the mountain also became extremely turbulent like waves rolling about. Finally, the puddle of water formed by droplets of river water also started to have its own rhythm.

“Hua la, hua la la...”

As the river water hit the water surface, a noise was formed. However, at this moment, that noise suddenly became like music. It was as if there was a tune silently being played, a beautiful type of music.

“Uh...”

Jiang Yi’s eyes glistened and became hazy. He quickly sat cross-legged and used his whole heart to experience this wonderful ‘music’. He was passive and calm as if an old monk that had started to meditate.

He is indeed a music genius.

Yin Ruobing listened for a long time. While she was able to sense a sliver of a special charm from that strange melody, that charm was not visible to her; and she could not grasp it. She looked at Jiang Yi who was in a daze. This man was always so incredible, so mysterious. He was so young, and yet his battle strength was astonishing; he had also become the Art Thearch. Now, he even had a seemingly perverse affinity with tonality.

No matter how great and strong a woman was, she was still a woman. She would still feel hurt and sorrow and was sentimental. She would, without reasons, think about some strange things. Take this instance for example. Yin Ruobing was staring dazed at Jiang Yi and had completely forgotten to go and try to figure out the dao pattern presence in the spring water. If outsiders found out, they would definitely be in a fit. How rare an opportunity it was to enter the divine spring mystic realm, and yet this lady was wasting it away.

“Uh...”

One hour later, Yin Ruobing came to her senses. She hurriedly averted her gaze and used both her hands to shield her face. Her ears were all red. She forced herself not to look at Jiang Yi but sat down cross-legged to try and fathom the dao pattern presence in the spring water.

Unfortunately...

She had been at it for one hour but could not understand anything. She opened her eyes sulkily and looked at Jiang Yi once again. As she looked longer, her eyes became hazy again.

With her heart not able to settle down, how was she going to fathom the dao pattern presence in the spring water? This cycle had continued a few times, and the two had been in there for six hours.

When it was five minutes to the six-hour mark, Jiang Yi—who had been meditating without moving—suddenly opened his eyes, scaring Yin Ruobing who was stealing glances at him. Jiang Yi said agonizingly, “My dear Lady Yin. Why are you not trying to decipher the Divine Spring but looking at me constantly? Have you not seen a handsome man before?”

Jiang Yi had entered the meditative state right from the start, using his whole heart to try and figure out the melody inside the Divine Spring. He had indeed made some progress. While he was listening to Sonar Thearch play just now, he had somehow rather managed to absorb something; now, he was starting to see the light.

After more than two hours, he had decided to enter the State of the Union of Heaven and Man, thinking that this would aid him in discovering more; perhaps this would help him rank up his Divine Sound Heaven Skill as well.

However, he was wrong!

Indeed, entering the State of the Union of Heaven and Man had made his senses sharper, and he could hear the sound of the spring water clearer. However, being in this State of the Union of Heaven and Man meant that he could sense things in the surroundings as well; this included every move that Yin Ruobing was making.

If say, an absolute beauty was constantly staring at someone, occasionally blushing and with eyes filled with tender affection, could that person quiet down his heart? Even a saint wouldn’t be able to, right?

In the last two hours, Jiang Yi had been the same as Yin Ruobing, trying to force his heart to quiet down for a moment and then starting to think about other stuff the next moment. In this state, time had continued to flow. Now that there were only five minutes left before being transported out, Jiang Yi had utterly given up.

“I... I wasn’t looking at you!”

Yin Ruobing was akin to a thief who was caught on the spot: shocked, afraid, and shy—as she coyly turned her head away. Her face was as red as a monkey’s buttocks. However, she remained adamant and said stubbornly, “I... was trying to see what you have managed to discover and try to mimic you. Right... that was all.”

Sigh!

Jiang Yi looked at the small river that was flowing like tide after tide and secretly felt that it was a pity. If Yin Ruobing had not disturbed, his Divine Sound Heaven Skill could have probably entered the second stage. However, he had already had a good grasp of the basics; an exponential growth of his Divine Sound Heaven Skill was only a matter of time.

Forget it, forget it. One cannot forcefully wish for good fortune; wasn’t this opportunity unexpected as well?

Jiang Yi thought things through quickly. A smile also appeared on his face. He looked at Yin Ruobing teasingly and said, “Little Yin, don’t stare at guys like this next time, alright? Girls need to maintain a certain sense of propriety, too. Furthermore, it’s not as if I’m looking very good now, right?”

“Bah!”

Yin Ruobing was so embarrassed that she did not even dare to look Jiang Yi in the eye. Her look of anxiety and anger made Jiang Yi laugh out loud. To be able to tease one of the two greatest beauties on the continent, Jiang Yi was very pleased. Even Zhan Tianlei did not have the good fortune to see Yin Ruobing like this, right?

They were running out of time. Jiang Yi became serious and said, “Right, Yin Ruobing. After we get out, you should pretend not to know me. If you act suspiciously, my identity would definitely be exposed. At that point in time, the North Thearch would come and hunt me down. I will have no choice but to flee from the East Imperial Continent...”

“Hur-hur!”

Yin Ruobing seized the opportunity to get back at Jiang Yi. She snorted twice and looked at Jiang Yi with hatred. “Why should I help you? You, a rascal who dared to make fun of me? If I went out and shouted that Yi San was Jiang Yi, I figure everyone would gang up and attack you, right? As for those two ladies, you can go and think of a solution on your own. I... will not intervene anymore.”

“Hahaha!”

Jiang Yi looked at the angry Yin Ruobing, and he was not only not angry but was actually very happy as well. He laughed and said, “Alright, Ruobing. Don’t fool about anymore. Let’s talk seriously. However, you do look mesmerizing when you’re angry.”

Upon hearing that she looked mesmerizing, Yin Ruobing’s anger subsided by half. She crinkled her nose and said, “No. You have to compensate me. Give me a few of your treasures. For example, eight or ten of the ancient artifacts you have gained from the Purgatory Ruin. Then, I will forgive you.”

“Eight or ten items?”

Jiang Yi rolled his eyes, stood up straight, and said, “Why not I give myself to you?”

“I could care less about owning you.”

Yin Ruobing suddenly became excited. She said, “Jiang Yi, aren’t you the Art Thearch? Why not draw a Heaven Painting and give it to me? Your Heaven Paintings are priceless on the continent.”

“Heaven Paintings?”

Jiang Yi saw the look of desire in Yin Ruobing’s eyes and couldn’t bear to reject her. He nodded and withdrew ink, paper, and brush from his ring. He laid the paper flat on the ground while Yin Ruobing started to prepare the ink for him.

Jiang Yi calmed himself and suddenly closed his eyes. A red glow shone from his hand as his brush moved rapidly and started to draw.

Yin Ruobing saw that a mere few strokes of the brush had created a figure on the paper and was secretly impressed with Jiang Yi’s skills. However, as she looked closer at the painting, the figures became clearer. She suddenly shook and was embarrassed and happily surprised at the same time.

Brush stopping, ink drying!

The Heaven Painting had taken shape. The background of the painting was a small courtyard. There were many fresh flowers in the yard, and in the meadow, a young lady was dancing. The young lady was wearing a white dress and looked as beautiful as a Sky Immortal. She was barefoot, with her smile being able to mesmerize any man.

This was exactly how Jiang Yi had met Yin Ruobing for the first time. It was clear that there were many dao pattern presences in the painting. It was an incredible Heaven Painting.

Jiang Yi opened his eyes, took a few looks, and was very pleased. He paused for a while to think, and dabbed the ink once again, writing three words ‘Yi Piaopiao’ in one of the corners. He then named this painting ‘Flower Fairy’.

Six hours was about to end. Jiang Yi waited for the ink to dry, rolled the painting, and gave it to Yin Ruobing. He then said seriously, ‘Yin Ruobing, after parting ways this time, I do not know when we will meet again. Please take care of yourself. I hope that the next time we meet, we will still be friends!”

“En!”

Yin Ruobing received the painting, bit her lip, and suddenly looked at Jiang Yi, saying, “Jiang Yi, I have known you for so long, but I have never seen how you really look like. Can you show your real self to me?”

Buzz!

Jiang Yi’s body transformed with a white flash, his body muscles shifting and his skin tone changing. He finally changed into his original self.

Yin Ruobing looked at Jiang Yi deeply, wanting to remember how he looked like forever. Before long, time was up. The two bathed in white light as they were about to be teleported out.

Jiang Yi hurriedly changed back into his disguise while Yin Ruobing also closed her eyes. Tears were falling silently from the corner of her eyes. Her face revealed a sense of loneliness as her lips moved such that only she could hear herself whisper. “Jiang Yi, if I had known you before you entered Sin Island, how good that would have been...”
