Chapter 1392 - Fight to the Death! (1/2)

As a black market castle’s name suggested, there were things inside there that could not see the light of day!

As long as one had divine roots, a group of young girls could be brought to someone for them to enjoy as they please… or a group of people for them to kill as they liked. There were only things they could not imagine, but never things that could not be done.

The Crazed God Castle had a few hundred Pavilion Branches within the Earth Emanations Domain. There was also a General Pavilion in the Earth Emanations City; it had been around for a thousand years. This was a thousand Higher-Domain years. For such a devilish and evil thing to survive for such a long time could only mean one thing: the Crazed God Castle had powerful very influential backers. This was also the reason why Commander He had not given in to Jiang Yi regarding the Pandan plant.

“The He Clan? They are indeed strong!”

Jiang Yi was holding onto a docket containing information on the He Clan. Although it was not complete, it had—more or less—summarized the power dynamics of the He Clan.

The He Clan was an indigenous divine race; it was one of the top ten indigenous divine races in the Earth Emanations Domain. However, they were still considered inferior to the Xuanyuan Clan. These ancient and powerful races had their spheres of influence throughout the entire Earth Emanations Domain. They had their power bases everywhere while they had men inside the Earth Emanations Pavilion, the Demon-Killing Pavilion, and the Battle God Pavilion. Some of them were even high-ranked and wielded great power.

The He Clan’s greatest pillar of support was someone whose eyes Jiang Yi had seen.

That was the Earth Emanations Domain Battle God Pavilion General Pavilion Lord Jiutian Wu. The He Clan Head’s daughter was a concubine of Jiutian Wu; she was also greatly loved. This concubine’s son was presently the Battle God Pavilion Blue Eagle Prefecture Pavilion Branch’s Assistant Pavilion Lord.

“No wonder Commander He would not even give me face for something worth only five million divine roots; the He Clan has such a powerful backer!”

Jiang Yi smiled slightly as he shrugged this news off. The faces of Gu Mu and Commander Liu were very serious in contrast. Gu Mu did not dare to say anything. Commander Liu, on the other hand, tried to persuade Jiang Yi. “My dear City Lord, I think this matter has escalated far enough. We should stop before some higher-up arrives. At that time, both sides would not be able to settle things easily anymore. If this matter blows up, it will not be beneficial to you.”

Jiang Yi did not say anything. He only looked at Commander Liu for a while and asked softly, “Old Liu, are you afraid?”

“What should I be afraid of?”

Commander Liu actually smiled as he said very determinedly, “City Lord, the moment you made me the Assistant City Lord, my life had become yours. I am worried about you.”

“Keke!”

Jiang Yi smiled lightly as he said confidently, “Don’t worry, I will hold the fort!”

After Jiang Yi’s last words, Commander Liu and Gu Mu’s hearts settled down inexplicably. The two exchanged a glance as they looked slightly stunned. Jiang Yi had actually injected some confidence in the two of them that if they followed him, there would not be any problems whatsoever. For someone so young and still rather weak to have such a special airs, this was someone who was destined to become a leader.

The two did not speak anymore. Commander Liu left to make arrangements as Jiang Yi closed his eyes to rest. Before long, Xiao Leng had returned. Once he entered, he said exasperatedly, “Why have you gone to offend the Crazed God Castle? Someone has asked me to send you a warning to lie low and not be too flashy. If not, things could go wrong easily…”

“It has come!”

The He Clan’s response was so quick that it was beyond Jiang Yi’s expectation. Furthermore, the first wave was actually represented by Xiao Lengi. Jiang Yi’s mouth revealed a slightly mocking expression as he said, “Old Xiao, I am going to clash with the Crazed God Castle today. Who will you decide to help?”

“What nonsense!”

Xiao Leng’s ugly face grew twisted as he sat down and said, “If you want to play with fire, go ahead. I will not help anyone. If you can withstand the pressure, please continue.”

“Haha!”

Jiang Yi smiled and said, “Old Xiao is indeed a real brother. You can sit and watch the show. I am actually interested to see what kind of pressure will be exerted on me!”

“A powerful one…” Xiao Leng rolled his eyes as he said, “I wager that you won’t be able to take it soon.”

Shh-shh-shh!

Xiao Leng’s words had not finished when there were footsteps shuffling outside. He Wei walked in hurriedly and reported, “Jiang Yi, Pavilion Lord Xuanyuan has arrived.”

The second wave had come!
