Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 1522: With Age Comes Experience

This scene seemed to freeze!

Poison Spirit did not dare to move an inch; Heavenly King You could easily kill him with one move. Poison Spirit was afraid he would be dead if he made a wrong move. Heavenly King You also did not move, his spear pointed at Poison Spirit as a black dragon revolved around the spear, ready to soar forward any time and turn Poison Spirit into a fine powder.

Jiang Yi and Qi Qingchen didn’t even dare to breathe as they looked at Heavenly King You, wondering if he would attack or if he had any powerful mystical abilities that guaranteed he could kill Poison Spirit before Poison Spirit destroyed the ring.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The Sword Emanations Race beings around didn’t care so much; however, as they continued to charge towards Heavenly King You. Many long swords were about to hit Heavenly King You. The Sword Emanations King that had been sent flying also rushed forward again. At this moment, Heavenly King You spoke. “Jiang Yi, ask the Sword Emanations Race beings to stop!”

Heavenly King You’s tone was very peaceful. Jiang Yi was also afraid that things would get out of hand as his Fire Dragon Sword shook and released a sword sound. All the Sword Emanations Race beings stopped immediately. Poison Spirit moved finally as he continued to retreat with his left hand still shining with light and his gaze watching Heavenly King You like that of a poisonous snake. If Heavenly King You made any sudden movements, Poison Spirit would definitely destroy the ring.

Heavenly King You did not move as he watched Poison Spirit retreat. Jiang Yi controlled the Sword Emanations Race beings to surround Poison Spirit as he retreated and only breathed easy when Poison Spirit had retreated for a few thousand feet.

How things have turned; they were now in control.

Heavenly King You’s aura grew weaker as he also kept his spear. His face revealed his helplessness as he sighed and said, “Very well, Poison Spirit and Jiang Yi; you two have acted impressively. I admit defeat. State your conditions, Jiang Yi!”

“Yi... Yi... Yi... Yi...”

Heavenly King You’s words had been very helpless and in a low tone, making all three of them feel as if he was admitting defeat and was ready to parlay. However, his last word exploded like thunder in Poison Spirit, Qi Qingchen, and Jiang Yi’s minds. The three instantly felt as if the heavens were shaking as immense pain traveled from within their soul spirits. They felt as if their soul spirits were going to be destroyed in the next moment!

“Not good!”

Qi Qingchen’s face changed as her flexible sword flickered, creating countless sword shadows. A gust of wind gathered as she pierced her sword forward furiously.

Clang-clang!

A sound of metal striking metal rang as Qi Qingchen’s flexible sword was sent flying, and she vomited a mouthful of blood. Her body was also sent flying heavily. Before Jiang Yi could react, a spear had pierced forward like a poisonous snake and was resting on his neck.

“Young Lord!”

Poison Spirit only managed to react after all this had happened as he shouted, “Old dog, if you dare to kill Young Lord, your grandson will die with us!”

“Pfff!”

Fresh blood rushed forward from Jiang Yi’s mouth like water. The spear had not pierced his neck. However, he had been violently shaken by Heavenly King You’s aura attack. Jiang Yi did not dare to act rashly as he shivered and spat out some blood. He looked at Heavenly King You, who was just a few meters from him, smiled bitterly and said, “Indeed, with age comes experience.”

He had devised a plan just now that allowed Poison Spirit to launch a sneak attack successfully; now, Heavenly King You had also succeeded in holding him hostage. The two were now equal!

That Heavenly King You could become a commander-in-chief of the Demon-Buster Army—he was naturally not an idiot. He had not chosen to attack Poison Spirit but decided to attack his master. Once he took down Jiang Yi, he knew Poison Spirit would not dare to act. Now that both sides had chips in their hands, at least Jiang Yi did not have total control over the situation now.

Heavenly King You did not have the heart to waste his breath with Jiang Yi. He looked at Jiang Yi coldly and said, “We can either talk or fight it out; your choice!”

Jiang Yi grew silent. Both sides had a chip each now; it now depended on how they were going to parlay. However, he who was down did not need to fear no fall. Jiang Yi actually grew more confident. He did not immediately negotiate with Heavenly King You but actually closed his eyes and started to recuperate.

“Uh?”

Qi Qingchen in a distance and Heavenly King You’s eyes both revealed their surprise. Jiang Yi still had the mind to recuperate at such a moment? Was he really not afraid to die? Or was his temperament stronger than a saint’s?

One would not make the first move!

Heavenly King You was not stupid. He did not continue as he held onto his spear that pressed at Jiang Yi’s neck. For someone like Heavenly King You, his temperament was definitely top-notch. He understood that during negotiations, whoever appeared weak would definitely lose out.

Just like this, the two did not move; Qi Qingchen and Poison Spirit also stayed put. The tens of millions of Sword Emanations Race beings in the area also stood silently, obediently obeying Jiang Yi’s commands. The scene was rather strange and inexplicable.

Five minutes, ten minutes... one hour!

Jiang Yi and Heavenly King You continued to wait. However, Qi Qingchen and Poison Spirit grew anxious. Poison Spirit had forcibly activated the Divine Spirit Thrust while heavily injured; his internal organs were now suffering the ramifications. At this moment, he still had to focus all his attention on Jiang Yi. He was afraid Heavenly King You would launch a sneak attack, and so he was feeling even more tired, having to constantly keep a lookout.

Qi Qingchen was nowhere better. She had just recovered slightly when Heavenly King You had attacked her; many of her bones had been shattered. She looked at Jiang Yi and Heavenly King You, eyes peeled. She did not know how long this stalemate was going to last.

Swish! Swish!

Five minutes later, a slightly air-piercing sound traveled from afar. Heavenly King You’s eyes shone with cold light as Qi Qingchen and Poison Spirit sent their divine sense forward. The duo’s faces changed. Three formidable martial artists had come; they were all King-Ranked!

“No... Majesty Father has come!”

Qi Qingchen swiftly sensed a familiar aura as her eyes reddened. No matter how strong one was, having been bullied bitterly, seeing her own father come was very comforting. She naturally hoped that he would stand up for her.

“En?”

Jiang Yi’s eyes finally opened. However, he actually felt as if a huge burden had been lifted. So many King-Ranked formidable martial artists had come; the other two commanders-in-chief had probably come as well. At least one of the three commanders-in-chief should be reasonable, right?

Swish!

Three figures soared through the skies and sped forward. They had been hundreds of thousands of kilometers out a while ago; now, they had already reached the exterior of the Sword Emanations Race beings encirclement. Three powerful divine senses swept forward. However, the situation they discovered made them extremely perplexed and confused.

“Old You, what are you doing?”

A confused voice rang out. Another handsome, middle-aged man’s divine senses locked onto Qi Qingchen and asked, “Qingchen, what has happened? You had destroyed your jade talisman; who wants to kill you? Also, these Sword Emanations Race beings...”

Heavenly King You’s eyes flashed with fury as he was aggrieved. If it was only the other two commanders-in-chief that had come, that would have been alright. However, the Wintry Sovereign himself had arrived; his face was utterly gone.

He also didn’t know what to do now as he replied in a muffled voice, “Nothing much. This fiend is very audacious. He actually used demonic arts to control the Sword Emanations Race; he also wants to kill Tianni and the children from the Bai Clan and Qiu Clan. If I had come a minute later, they would all have died...”

Everyone looked even more confused. Jiang Yi wanted to kill You Tianni, Bai Ditian, Qiu Ren, and others? Since Heavenly King You had arrived, why did he not kill Jiang Yi immediately, but was locked in a stalemate? The trio’s divine senses swept a few times and finally found the reason.

One of Heavenly King You’s fingers had been severed while the ring in Poison Spirit’s hand was Heavenly King You’s!

“Uh...”

The three King-Ranked formidable martial artists instinctively uttered their surprise. A commander-in-chief of the Demon-Buster Army had actually been hurt by two inconsequential martial artists? They had even held his grandson and many young masters hostage, resulting in the current stalemate? If this matter was spread, the entire Earth Domain would be in an uproar, right?
