“Hunting Envoy, escape!”

The Assistant Pavilion Lord shouted once again. At this moment, he finally understood that Jiang Yi was too weak; he couldn’t move at all. However, at his current distance to Jiang Yi, he could not save Jiang Yi at all.

This Assistant Pavilion Lord knew a little about Jiang Yi. Although he did not know about Jiang Xiaonu, he knew very well that Jiang Yi’s appointment to become a city lord had the approval from Mo Lingqiu himself. To let someone from the Demon-Killing Pavilion assume a city lord position was very rare. Hence, that was why the Demon-Killing Pavilion had designated Jiang Yi as a Hunting Envoy.

Although he did not know if Jiang Yi was Mo Lingqiu’s spy or not—since Mo Lingqiu cared so much about Jiang Yi, he had to do everything in his power now to save Jiang Yi. If not and word got out that Jiang Yi had died on a mission with him and under his eyelids as well, Mo Lingqiu would definitely grow suspicious.

To be on the mind of the Earth Emanations Sovereign’s clan senior was not a good thing.

“Risk it!”

The Assistant Pavilion Lord gritted his teeth. Seeing as Jiang Yi was about to be killed by the Netherworld General, his body lit up brightly as he pierced his long spear towards the Netherworld General. A huge explosion could be heard as the spatial zone behind the skeletal giant suddenly exploded, and ten streaks of black light appeared. They struck the Netherworld General’s body.

This was the Assistant Pavilion Lord’s most powerful attack. He had used much of his strength in this attack as well. If this move could not kill the skeletal giant, Jiang Yi would definitely die.

Boom!

The skeletal giant’s back was struck by the black light as the runic patterns and his Netherworld Aura started to circulate madly. However, the Netherworld General ultimately succumbed. When the fifth streak of black light struck, the skeletal giant’s back exploded. Its skeletal bones also cracked and were destroyed one by one. However, at the last moment, its skeletal mouth spat forth a mouthful of black aura directly at Jiang Yi!

“Oh, no…”

The Assistant Pavilion Lord sighed internally. Although the skeletal giant had been killed, its Netherworld Aura was very frightening. Disregarding someone weak like Jiang Yi—even ordinary Demon-Killing Battle Kings would have a hard time dealing with it. Once Jiang Yi became a creature of the Netherworld Realm, the Assistant Pavilion Lord could only kill him reluctantly.

“Eh?”

After waiting for a moment, he suddenly realized that Jiang Yi’s life force aura had not weakened. Jiang Yi was still standing there as if nothing had happened. A second later, Jiang Yi actually moved and flew towards him.

“Nothing happened? How is this possible?”

The Assistant Pavilion Lord’s brows rose as his eyes were full of disbelief. He sent his divine senses forward once more but found no trace of the Netherworld Aura on Jiang Yi. His soul spirit was also very clean; the Netherworld Aura had not taken over him.

“Could it be this lad has a soul-spirit defensive cardinal treasure?”

The Assistant Pavilion Lord muttered to himself, stunned. He continued to use his divine senses on Jiang Yi’s soul spirit consciousness but ultimately still found nothing. Besides the fact that Jiang Yi’s soul spirit was a little special and was like a sword, there was nothing else out of the ordinary.

“Strange!”

The Assistant Pavilion Lord looked at Jiang Yi curiously as he asked, “Hunting Envoy, you had not been attacked by the Netherworld Aura?”

“Huhu…”

Jiang Yi took in a few mouthfuls of air. He had really taken a walk in front of death’s door just now. He caught his breath as he cupped his hands and said, “Many thanks for saving me, my Lord. If it wasn’t for you, I would have died here already.”

Jiang Yi did not talk about the Netherworld Aura at all. The Assistant Pavilion Lord also did not press on with his queries. However, he suddenly grew a little suspicious of Jiang Yi’s identity. According to internal news from within the Demon-Killing Pavilion, Jiang Yi was just a martial artist from a small domain that had ascended not long ago. Now, it seemed as if this news was false. Jiang Yi was probably a disciple of some extremely powerful family clan. If not, how could he possess a soul spirit cardinal treasure that could ward off a Netherworld General’s Netherworld Aura?

Could he be an illegitimate son of Mo Lingqiu’s? That can’t be right. If he really was Mo Lingqiu’s offspring, how could Mo Lingqiu have come out directly to help him? Could it be… the Earth Emanations Sovereign’s offspring? If not, how could he have gotten this city lord position? With Xiao Leng to protect him no less? That’s very likely!

A thought surfaced in the Assistant Pavilion Lord’s mind as he was slightly shaken. It was best not to ask too much about things like this. However, he did not dare to belittle Jiang Yi anymore and said, very courteously, “You are too kind, Hunting Envoy. Even if I had not killed the Netherworld General, you would have done so as well. Right… where is Xiao Leng?”

“Not sure!”

Jiang Yi’s heart was filled with trepidation as he looked far away and shook his head. “We encountered a Netherworld General, and subsequently, I lost contact with him.”

“Oh, oh!”

The Assistant Pavilion Lord nodded and said, “In that case, you can follow me first. There is a strong maze formation here. Elder Ba had already found the core of the formation and would be destroying it soon. There should probably be only three Netherworld Generals here. Xiao Leng is pretty strong himself. It would only be a matter of time before he is done killing the Netherworld General.”

The Assistant Pavilion Lord flew over and retrieved the Netherworld General’s Netherworld Pearl. He then flew towards Jiang Yi and very generously tossed the Netherworld Pearl to Jiang Yi. He said, “Hunting Envoy, please take this Netherworld Pearl. A Netherworld General’s Netherworld Pearl is worth ten Netherworld Envoy Netherworld Pearls.”

“You are giving it to me?”

Jiang Yi was startled. This Assistant Pavilion Lord was too easy-going to be true, right? He was essentially giving Jiang Yi battle merits. Jiang Yi did not really dare to accept. He asked suspiciously, ‘My Lord, how can I take this? Don’t you need to show proof of completion of this mission as well?”

“We do not need items to prove that!”

The Assistant Pavilion Lord gestured and said, “We only need to destroy this abyss; there is no point for us holding on the Netherworld Pearls.”

“In that case, many thanks, my Lord. If and when you visit the Divine Eagle City, I will definitely take good care of you!’

Jiang Yi no longer stood on formalities. The more Netherworld Pearls he collected, the more bonuses he could receive for surpassing the mission requirements. The Assistant Pavilion Lord was also very pleased with Jiang Yi’s response. He thought about it further and decided to give Jiang Yi all the dozen-odd Netherworld Pearls in his ring. He said, “I have no use for these as well. I will give them all to you.”

“This!”

Jiang Yi did not expect this at all. He also did not mind whatever motive this Assistant Pavilion Lord had. He kept all the Netherworld Pearls and—once again—cupped his hands politely, saying, “My Lord’s kindness, Jiang Yi will never forget. I will definitely repay you many folds in the future!”

The Assistant Pavilion Lord nodded very satisfactorily. He brought Jiang Yi along as he flew forward. Along the way—whenever they encountered Netherworld Envoys, he would personally kill them and then give the Netherworld Pearls to Jiang Yi. After one hour, there was suddenly huge turbulence beneath them. It seemed as if the mountains were collapsing, and the earth was splitting. The noise was deafening and lingered in their ears. The Assistant Pavilion Lord glanced over, nodded, and said, “The formation is about to be broken. Elder Ba had done a splendid job!”

Indeed, the black fog was starting to dissipate as the surroundings grew much clearer. Jiang Yi could now also see that in the distance, many black dots that represented the formidable martial artists of the Demon-Killing Pavilion.

“City Lord Jiang!”

From far away to the right, a black dot shot forward. Jiang Yi looked at it, and a huge burden was lifted off his shoulders. Xiao Leng had arrived; Jiang Yi was finally safe.

“All are to take note. The Netherworld Envoys below are about to escape. Split up to kill them; not one can be allowed to live. Also, do not go to the deepest parts of the abyss. There are Nine Nether Cold Flames in it. If you guys enter that place, you will definitely die!”

A cold voice traveled from the abyss beneath. Following that, hundreds of black demonic beasts flew upwards instantly, fleeing desperately in all directions. The Assistant Pavilion Lord—having seen Xiao Leng’s arrival—looked at Jiang Yi, nodded, and said, “Hunting Envoy, I will go and kill the black demonic beasts now. Please take care of your own safety.”

“My Lord, please go ahead!”

Jiang Yi cupped his hands respectfully at the Assistant Pavilion Lord. After the latter had flown away, Jiang Yi’s eyes lit up as he looked into the blurry abyss beneath; his gaze was as if he had seen an absolute beauty.

“Nine Nether Cold Flames?”

From the name itself, this was definitely a very overbearing heaven and earth special flame. Jiang Yi was just nice looking for such unique flames. He did not expect to find it so easily and effortlessly.

“How can I find an excuse to head down?”

Jiang Yi became troubled very quickly. The Fire Spirit Pearl was a cardinal treasure. If others found out about it, they would come and steal it from him. Even Xiao Leng could not be completely trusted. If Xiao Leng coveted Jiang Yi’s treasure and killed him, Xiao Leng could easily say that it had been the work of a Netherworld General.
