Chapter 784: The Art Emperor Has to Die
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jiang Yi returned to his inner courtyard. However, he didn’t rest; he went to his study room instead.
He was preparing to head into the Mystic Realm tomorrow. Therefore, he had to make a painting for Qian Wanguan today. Mainly because he had promised him and also Qian Wanguan was currently impersonating Yi Piaopiao. Thus, he had to prepare some paintings to continue on with the facade.
The courtyard was very big. Not only did everyone had a big room, but there was also a room that was specially made as a study room. Feng Luan ran over to help Jiang Yi grind the ink when she heard that Jiang Yi was going to paint. Meanwhile, Qing Yu had also sneaked in to provide some support.
“Landscape Painting?”
Jiang Yi thought for a moment, and the Gods Bestow City appeared within his mind. He shut his eyes slowly and entered into the Union of Heaven and Man state. Essence force revolved around his hand, and he moved his brush like a blade! The source of this content is novelenglish.net . Fɪre.net
A giant boulder floating in the sky appeared on the painting with just a few strokes, and an old ancient city that had one of its corner exposed above the giant boulder. Although only a corner of it could be seen, it was still able to showcase how prosperous and imposing this city was. The city was fused together with the giant boulder. Just a glimpse of it could give off the feeling of vastness which would cause a person’s soul spirit to be in shock.
“Good! Young Master’s painting skill has improved once again.”
Feng Luan nodded her head slightly while Qing Yu sighed incessantly. This Heaven Painting might have the Power of Earth dao pattern infused in it, but there weren’t any emotions assimilated in. It was still imposingly stimulative and just a glance of it was enough to cause the heart to palpitate.
Clearly, the quality of this painting was a lot better than the volcano eruption. Of course, it still couldn’t be compared with ‘Sorrow’, ‘Yearning’, ‘Passion’. Perhaps, Jiang Yi would never be able to paint out those three paintings ever again.

Jiang Yi sighed with regret after recalling those three paintings. However, his eyes brightened up very quickly. Two months had passed since the auction. He reckoned that some merchants had circulated what happened in the auction to the East Imperial Continent, right? The name ‘Yi Piaopiao’ should have resonated throughout the whole East Imperial Continent. Now, it was time to see if Yi Piaopiao was in the East Imperial Continent or not.
“Mother, where are you? Who exactly is Yu Wen?”
He sighed faintly, and his mind was filled with bewilderment. The most famous clan who had the surname Yi in the East Imperial Continent was the Buddha Thearch’s clan. However, Yi Chan had indicated that she had never once heard of a person named Yi Piaopiao as well as Yu Wen. This matter was very worrisome.
“Not thinking about it anymore!”
He shook his head and walked out of his study room. He handed over the subsequent procedures to Feng Luan. Previously, it was also Feng Luan who had left behind the signature in the three paintings as Jiang Yi’s writing... was way too ugly!
...
Jiang Yi didn’t guess wrongly. In fact, the name Yi Piaopiao had been circulated over by a lot of East Imperial Continent Merchants and had brought upon an uproar.
Especially the marvelous story in the auction. It was being contested upon who would be the first to disseminate it. Those three paintings had been auctioned off at a sky-high price of 120 billion? The Blood Emperor War Chariot had resurfaced? Furthermore, the Pearl of Life had been sold off at 200 billion and was used on a dead person?
All of these could cause a person’s heart to feel overwhelmed, and everyone loved to disseminate such interesting stories around. The Nine Thearchs Clans had learned of this news immediately. Every clan elder that was in charge of monitoring the Sin Island had those three paintings laid out within their study room. Furthermore, there was also very detailed information.
Buddha Thearch City...!
Within a small elegant courtyard, a purple-haired girl wearing a mask swept her eyes across the three paintings. She knitted her beautiful eyebrows and murmured, “Yi Piaopiao? Could it be Jiang Yi?”
Yi Chan remembered the name Yi Piaopiao particularly clear. Back then, Jiang Yi had asked her if she knew Yi Piaopiao and Yu Wen when he had exited from the Mystic Thearch Palace. Originally, Jiang Yi thought that Yi Piaopiao was Yi Chan’s aunt. After he learned that she was not, that disappointed and lonely expression on his face seemed to have reappeared before Yi Chan once again.
“Have you investigated about Yi Piaopiao’s identity? Is there a portrait of him?”
The Sin Island was a humiliation to the Nine Thearchs Clans. They never once stopped wishing to destroy Sin Island. Therefore, they cared a lot about the information regarding Sin Island. Yi Chan’s cultivation had reached a bottleneck after she returned, and her father had allowed her to enter the Yi Clan’s elder hall to temper herself.
Demons and gods at work!
The elder hall gave Yi Chan a lot of choices. Ultimately, she chose to monitor Sin Island affairs and intelligence. She knew about Jiang Yi entering the Sky Thunder Island as well as him, trafficking the thunder stones with Lu Ping because... a lot of the East Imperial Continent merchants that had concealed themselves in the Sin Island were members of the Nine Thearchs Clans.
The speed at which Jiang Yi was growing caused Yi Chan to sigh with sorrow and regret. There was a strict order from the Nine Thearchs Clans. Anyone who entered the Sin Island was an enemy of the Nine Thearchs Clan, and they had completely lost the rights to join the Nine Thearchs Clans.
A commander stood within the study room and replied Yi Chan’s question respectfully, “We’re unable to investigate the identity. At this moment, Master Yi Piaopiao is residing within the eastern part of the Gods Bestow City. There are guards stationed in every entrance and exit, and he is being revered by the influential clans within the Gods Bestow City. Even Lu Lin and Lei Qiyan didn’t dare to make their moves. Furthermore, Huangfu Taotian was at the outer courtyard of the Yi Residence. Thus, no one dares to probe around.”
“Alright, you may be dismissed. Report back to me immediately if you obtain any new information. Think of a way to obtain the portrait of Yi Piaopiao.”
Yi Chan waved her hand and picked up the three painting. These were ‘Sorrow’, ‘Yearning’, ‘Passion’. Of course, they weren’t originals but just imitations. Furthermore, there was a limit to the standard.
“Is he targeting Lu Lin on purpose? He bought the Purple Soul Bells and gifted it to Nangong Qiling? Lastly, he actually lent 80 billion to Huangfu Taotian on an impulse? This seemed to be Jiang Yi’s temperament!”

Sigh... Grandfather has gone into another seclusion after he returned from the Mt. Mystic Divine. I didn’t even have the chance to see him. Otherwise, I could have asked him; and he should know about it. Besides, who is Yu Wen?
“Art Emperor? Hmph!”
Yi Chan’s face turned cold very quickly. She snorted coldly. “Regardless if Yi Piaopiao was Jiang Yi or not, death still awaits him. The Nine Thearchs Clans would never allow an Art Emperor to appear in the Sin Island. The remaining clans would still make their moves even if Yi Clan wasn’t going to. Jiang Yi, you can only blame it yourself for being out of luck if it is really you.”
Yi Chan was very clear on how important an Art Emperor was. Her grandfather, the Buddha Thearch, was an Art Emperor. His painting had allowed her Yi Clan’s descendants to benefit from it inexhaustibly. Yi Chan had comprehended eight different low-grade dao patterns from the painting as it greatly increased her speed of comprehending the dao patterns.
If they allowed Jiang Yi to continue growing in this manner, the 13 Clans’ descendants would also benefit inexhaustibly if they were to obtain a high-standard Heaven Painting from him.
Sin Island had to be destroyed. The reason why Yi Chan chose to monitor Sin Island was that she wanted to think of an idea to destroy it. Therefore... she would never allow a person who could potentially become an Art Emperor to remain alive.
...
“Men, sent a message to the Human Sin Devil Squadron. Think of all means to kill Yi Piaopiao! If necessary, it doesn’t matter even if their identity had to be exposed!”
Within the North Thearch City, Wu Ni shouted out heavily. Wu Ni was in charge of a lot more stuff. Not only did he receive orders to monitor the East Imperial Continent, but he also monitored every movement in the Wu Clan’s territory. He didn’t show any hesitation when he gave the order after he had obtained the news.
Evil Thearch City, Beast Thearch City, Mystic Emperor City...
Other than Yi Chan, the remaining eight emperors’ clans’ elders had transmitted an order down to assassinate Yi Piaopiao. The Nine Thearchs Clans controlled a lot of merchant associations that were concealed within the Sin Island and had also brought in a lot of suicide guards. The purpose of these suicide guards was very simple: they were to kill the talented descendants from the 13 Clans and also to think of ideas to create conflicts among themselves. Or, to destroy the Nine Dragons’ God-Slaughtering Array and many other tasks.
Indeed, Jiang Yi was in Gods Bestow City. No fights are allowed within the city. However, why were they known as suicide guards? They were all prepared to throw away their life. Therefore, there was no fear in whatever they do. They would make a move as long as an opportunity arose.
