Chapter 131: To You, I Have No Secrets!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

During the next few days which they stayed inside the cave, Zhan Wushuang and the people from the Zhan Clan did not question what bizarre encounter did Jiang Yi experience. For example, how did Jiang Yi leap down from the sky, or how did he manage to destroy the Man-Ruler Seal?

Although they were very curious about that incident, they knew that it was Jiang Yi’s secret to keep. It would be better if lesser people knew about it; furthermore, who didn’t have any secrets?

Since Zhan Wushuang and the rest of the people did not question him, Jiang Yi would not foolishly go and explain what happened either. This incident involved the Nameless Divine Art’s black essence forces—as well as the secret to the Fire Spirit Rocks—it would be better if fewer people knew about it since they were his trump card.

He and Su Ruoxue exited the cave and walked outside. After walking for a distance, Su Ruoxue could no longer hold it in. She spoke as she ran, “Jiang Yi, are you not going to explain anything to me?”

“What do I need to explain?”

Jiang Yi turned and stole a glance at Su Ruoxue; his eyes were full of smiles. He knew that it must have been really hard for Su Ruoxue to withhold herself for the past few days since she could not probe anything with the Zhan Clan around.

“Bang!”

Su Ruoxue saw the traces of smile inside Jiang Yi’s eyes. She took out her fist and punched him on the back. However, she soon regretted her action and turned her head away, blushing. That action was too intimate: it could have been easily misunderstood as flirting between couples.

Jiang Yi stopped teasing her. He let out a grin and explained in a low voice, “I do not know what the exact reason is. Not only did I not die when I dashed into the Death Trap, but I was also transported into the golden pagoda situated on the top. That was the real Tomb of the Heaven Monarch, and the body of the Heaven Monarch of Ten-Thousand Dragons lies within it. In the end, I received a treasure when I was inside the tomb. I had to burn through the floor of the pagoda before I could escape from it.”

“Treasure? Was it the one you used to destroy the Man-Ruler Seal?”

The beautiful face of Su Ruoxue was filled with curiosity. She stopped and blurted out her question before realizing that she might have probed too much. Awkwardly, she said, “Uhh... you do not have to answer my question if you do not wish to say it.”

“Haha! To you, I have no secrets!”

Jiang Yi stopped walking immediately and retrieved a red pearl from his chest. He passed over to her and said, “This is the treasure!”

“Eh...”

After listening to what Jiang Yi said, Su Ruoxue shuddered. Her cheeks turned red from her blushing. In her opinion, Jiang Yi’s words were somehow seemingly hinting her. If there was no secret between a man and a woman, weren’t they considered a couple?

But when she quickly stole a glance at Jiang Yi, she saw that his eyes were filled with sincerity and nothing else. She immediately felt that she had been overthinking. Embarrassed, her expression darkened; and she snorted coldly, “Keep it, keep it. I am not interested to take a look at it.”

“Huh!”

Jiang Yi blinked his eyes perplexedly; he did not understand. He truly did not have any other intention. He had always been indebted to Su Ruoxue: she nearly lost her life while saving him this time around. To him, Su Ruoxue was a person whom he could trust fully. Since she asked about what happened, it was only natural for him to come clean without hiding anything from her.

But not only did she refuse to look at it when he showed her, but she was also angry as well? That made him very puzzled. He did not know what to say; he silently thought to himself and agreed with what was written on books—understanding a woman’s heart was like finding a needle in the ocean: it was hard to grasp like the wind, the rain, and the fog.

“Time to go, silly!”

Su Ruoxue paused for a moment before fleeting forward like a butterfly. Her eyes were filled with a killer’s aura, and she said harshly,” Jiang Yi, you’ve said this before. You would help me slaughter whoever bullied me so help me take revenge now. Help me finish off Jiang Yiliu and all his men.”

That day, Commander Liu nearly broke Su Ruoxue’s spine; she had also been forced to drink Essence Sealing Powder which caused her utter misery—where she could choose neither to live nor die. If Jiang Yi had not appeared like the divine soldier and came to her rescue, she would have been defiled by Jiang Yiliu.

She was itching with hatred when she thought of what happened. She was obviously not a gentle and meek lady who would only wallow in self-pity and cry when she got bullied. The killer aura which she had on her at the moment made her resemble a small fiend.

Jiang Yi was prepared to take revenge even if Su Ruoxue didn’t mention it. His personality was greatly influenced by Jiang Yunhai. This could be seen from how he never offered any mercy when he made his move. He never considered himself a good man. Instead, he felt that if a man didn’t take his revenge, it wouldn’t be considered a man. He did not think a man was a saint if he chose to be kind to his enemies; instead... he considered that man a fool!

...

Once Jiang Yi made his move, the whole of the Tomb of the Heaven Monarch was soon in a reign of terror which basked the entire tomb in a blood storm.

The encounters of all the martial artists who met Jiang Yi never ended up nicely. Those who were smart enough to surrender could keep their lives. As long as they were carrying any treasured artifact, it would be confiscated. As for those who had yet to understand the situation and tried to counterattack, they would most likely end up as a corpse.

Of course, as long as they were the men from the Jiang Clan or the Zhangsun Clan—or if they were martial artists who were present on that day, their ending would never be pleasant if they were recognized by Su Ruoxue.

Within a few days, Jiang Yi and Su Ruoxue had traveled more than a few thousand miles. Nearly a hundred lives were taken away by Jiang Yi, and he had also gathered more than ten treasured artifacts. In addition to that, he had also collected a numinous artifact. It was a long, silver sword. When he saw how much Su Ruoxue liked that sword, he gave it to her without any hesitation.

“Swish!”

It was the fourteenth day since they entered the Tomb of the Heaven Monarch. They were chasing a group of people who were running for their lives inside a forest. Among the people who were running away... was Commander Liu from the Western Garrison Army.

They had just encountered that group of people. Both of them had been chasing them for more than two hours, and they had slaughtered more than ten people along the way. The martial skills of Commander Liu and the few team leaders, however, were too strong; and they were too fast for the two of them. They simply could not catch up.

Jiang Yi’s cultivation stage was too low; even if he gathered all the black essence forces to his feet, he could only reach the speed of the martial artists who were at the fifth or sixth stage of the Purple Mansion Realm. Unless he engulfed the group of people in front with the Massacre Intent and reduced their speed, they would never catch up.

“Let’s forget about it? We will have plenty of chances to kill them in the future!”

Jiang Yi sighed disappointingly as he saw the distance between them and the group grew further. However, Su Ruoxue was still chasing them persistently, with her beautiful eyes locked on Commander Liu. She remembered clearly that he was the one who broke her spine on that day.

“Buzz!”

Two strikes of purple lights glowed in her eyes, and they shot forward. The purple light caught up with the group of people in no time. It was a pity that Commander Liu was right at the front while a team leader was at the tail of the group. The purple light shot into the body of the team leader silently, and he collapsed on the ground instantly.

“Ah?”

Commander Liu and the rest of the people turned and looked, shuddering at what they saw. But none of them dared to stop. Instead, they increased their speed and took flight immediately.

“Hu-Hu...”

Su Ruoxue lost her balance and swayed; if not for Jiang Yi’s quick reflex to hold onto her, she would have collapsed to the ground. Looking at her pale face full of unjust, Jiang Yi felt a little sorry and said, “Don’t be anxious, isn’t it just one more day before we get out from here? Once we were all transported out of this valley, I will kill him immediately.”

“Alright then!”

Weakly, Su Ruoxue sat cross-legged on a piece of limestone to regain her essence force while Jiang Yi darted towards the team leader to check if he was truly dead before returning. He mumbled upon his return and said, “Where are Jiang Yiliu and his men hiding? We have already looked for them everywhere for the past few days, but not a shadow could be seen!”

Jiang Yi sighed helplessly upon pondering. Jiang Yiliu had the Ancient Divine War Chariot while Zhangsun Wuji had the Blue Dragon. Even if they found the two of them, it would be hard to kill them.

“Let’s cultivate. We can only wait till tomorrow!”

The search for artifacts in the Tomb of the Heaven Monarch would only last for fifteen days each time before everyone would get transported out once the time was up. With only one day left, Jiang Yi gave up on finding artifacts. He sat cross-legged with Su Ruoxue to regain his essence forces as they waited for the next day.
