Chapter 1342: Important Men

The space in the Higher Domain was unusually stiff. This made it extra difficult to build Teleportation Formation. A significant amount of resources was required to build such formations. Even in a small city like Divine Eagle City, two Teleportation Formations were required. One would only be able to teleport between these two formations and nearby cities.

To get to Blue Lion City, Jiang Yi and company had to at least teleport fifty times. Then, to teleport out of Blue Eagle Prefecture from there, they had to teleport another eighty times at least.

The good thing was that Luo Qingyan had a City Lord command token with her. This meant they only had to pay half the price to teleport each time. Of course, that only applied within Blue Eagle Prefecture. Once they got out, the command token would be useless. Luo Qingyan was paying with her own divine roots so Jiang Yi could not care less.

Buzz!

The distance between the cities was great, and the space was too stiff. Teleporting to Divine Fire City alone took them about ten minutes. Jiang Yi waited for the white flash to disappear until he could see the scenery around him clearly. Immediately, he grabbed Luo Qingyan with one hand and used his other hand to summon the Merged Flames.

Luo Qingyan had been very obedient. Intelligent people would not carry out plans that they did not have full confidence in. Once Jiang Yi was sure that they were safe, he heaved a huge sigh of relief. Then, he looked around and caught sight of Black Deity, who was on the verge of falling over. He immediately reached out to support him and said gently, “Black Deity, what’s wrong?”

“Young Master, I... my head hurts,” Black Deity said through gritted teeth. He looked pale, and it was obvious that he was in serious pain.

“Master!”

Gu Mu sent a voice transmission: “Your friend is not a Demon God. His soul spirit is too weak. We are teleporting too great a distance so... his soul spirit is overwhelmed. If we teleport ten times in a row without rest, his soul spirit might leave his body.”

“This...”

Jiang Yi’s expression darkened. He had a hostage in his hands, but who could guarantee his safety? The faster they moved, the safer they would be. This time, taking Black Deity with him out of the city might alert the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan. If they delayed matters, even the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan might come up with a brilliant plan to handle the situation. They were in critical danger.

“Let’s teleport one more time first!”

Jiang Yi shouted through gritted teeth. Luo Qingyan was clearly unbothered as she handed a ring to Gu Mu. Gu Mu refined it and found that there were a lot of divine roots inside it. He retrieved them and handed them to the Earth Emanations soldier, who was guarding the Teleportation Formation. The black-gold command token appeared in Luo Qingyan’s hand once again, and the group entered the Teleportation Formation beside them. Now, they were headed for the next city.

“Black Deity, can you hang on?”

Black Deity was in greater pain now. The entire time that they were teleporting, his head was pounding. After resting for a couple of seconds, Black Deity hardened his jaw and said, “Young Master, I’m fine. Let’s go!”

Black Deity had no idea what had happened, but he saw the message that Jiang Yi left for him. He knew that the group was in great danger; otherwise, Jiang Yi would not ask him if he could hang on.

“Go!”

Jiang Yi shouted through gritted teeth again. The group teleported three more times before Black Deity collapsed on the ground. He looked like he was in immense pain, and yet he still did not make a sound.

“We’ll rest!”

Jiang Yi got Luo Qingyan to take her war chariot out. Then, he helped Black Deity onto it and retrieved the Rootless Water for Black Deity to use. Gu Mu quickly stopped him. “Master, you cannot do that! His soul spirit is too weak. It cannot take the Rootless Water. He will fall apart immediately...”

Jiang Yi glared at Gu Mu and said, “Then what should I do?”

Gu Mu shook his head. “You can only feed him ordinary spirit-nourishing medicines. However, these take much longer to take effect. We still cannot teleport continuously!”

Gu Mu retrieved some elixirs from his interspatial ring for Black Deity. The war chariot kept moving inside the city. After a full ten minutes, Black Deity opened his heavy eyelids. “Young Master, you go ahead first. Don’t bother about me. Leave me in the tribe. When you’re stronger, think of a way to come back for me.”

“What nonsense are you spouting?”

Jiang Yi glared at him. It took all his willpower not to reach out and slap Black Deity across the face. In a determined tone, he said, “Stop spouting nonsense. I will not leave you behind. If you don’t follow me, you will die for sure.”

Black Deity dared not say another word. Jiang Yi’s eyes darted around, and he said in a low voice, “We will stay in the city for a couple more hours. Once Black Deity recovers, we will continue on our way.”

He did not know when he would be able to return once he left. If he left Black Deity in Blue Eagle Prefecture, the latter would not survive for sure. Black Deity followed him all the way from Stellarsky Domain. He was family. Qianqian asked Jiang Yi to take Black Deity with him to the Higher Domain back then. How could he leave Black Deity behind?

...

Blue Eagle Prefecture!

Prefecture City of Blue Eagle Prefecture did not hover in mid-air, and there was no tribe underneath it as well. The Prefecture Lord of Blue Eagle Prefecture, along with all the important men in the Prefecture City, did not live in the city itself. Instead, they lived on the peak of a mountain, east of the city.

This mountain was extremely mysterious. If one looked down at it from the sky, they would see that the mountain resembled a divine eagle soaring through the air. This was where the Blue Eagle Prefecture got its name from.

People who could live on Blue Eagle Mountain were all important men in the Prefecture Region. At that moment, all of these important men were gathered, along with ten thousand City Lords of the various cities in the Prefecture Region. All of them were gathered at the peak of the mountain, where the mouth of the eagle was located.

There was a huge Teleportation Formation located there. If people wanted to teleport between Prefecture Regions or directly to Earth Emanations City, they had to use this Teleportation Formation. Outside the Teleportation Formation was a city plaza, on which twenty thousand people stood. The weakest of these twenty thousand people was a peak-stage God King. God Thearchs no longer formed the minority in this group.

The city plaza was completely silent at that time; it was so quiet that one would even be able to hear a pin drop. Everyone was looking at the Teleportation Formation, waiting. Only one person looked anxious: Luo Xiang, the City Lord of Divine Eagle City and Luo Qingyan’s father.

Luo Xiang received news from the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan a couple of hours ago, but he dared not do anything. So many formidable martial artists were gathered here today to welcome important men to the region. Even the Prefecture Lord of Blue Eagle Prefecture, Xiao Hong, was standing in front of the group, waiting silently. Of course, City Lord Luo would not dare to make any wrong moves.

How important were these important men?

Luo Xiang had no idea. He only heard that the Assistant Pavilion Lord of Earth Emanations Pavilion’s cabinet was accompanying these important men. That was the Earth Emanations Sovereign’s clan senior. One could only imagine how important these men were. If he dared to leave now, Xiao Hong would surely be enraged. Then, he would lose his position as City Lord.

“Luo Xiang, what’s wrong with you? Do you know the rules?”

A voice transmission sounded in Luo Xiang’s head, and he was startled. He looked up and saw a bald head in front of him, which was slightly turned to the side. The man was looking sideward back at him, his eyes glinting. This bald head was Xiao Di. The Sixth Elder sent a voice transmission to him to ask Xiao Di to help them out. Luo Xiang had this thought as well. On the spot, he smiled and said, “Lord Xiao Di, my daughter has been taken hostage. I only have this one daughter so...”

“En? Who’s so daring as to take Little Qingyan hostage? Tell me everything,” Xiao Di responded. The killing intent was obvious in his words.

Luo Xiang immediately told him everything that had happened. Of course, he did not dare say that Luo Qingyan plotted Luo Ting’s murder. He only talked about Jiang Yi, the young man who came into conflict with Luo Qingyan. He named this as the reason the former was taking such a huge risk.

“A meager Heaven God has taken control of a God King from your clan? And taken Little Qingyan hostage? Luo Xiang, are all the people in your clan useless? How can this little Heaven God possess flames that can kill even a God King? That’s interesting.”

Luo Di said these sentences mockingly. Then, he said, “Alright, don’t panic. The matters here are more important. We can talk more once the important men arrive. Later on... I will make a trip down with you. Even if this brat has brought Little Qingyan to another nearby prefecture, I will still help you kill him. The Prefecture Lords of the nearby prefectures would probably give me that much respect.”

“Thank you, Lord Xiao Di!”

Luo Xiang rejoiced on hearing this. Xiao Di was one of the two formidable martial artists with the strongest soul spirit in Blue Eagle Prefecture. Jiang Yi and Gu Mu aside, even his soul spirit would be destroyed with just one blow from Xiao Di’s despite his own skill level.
