Chapter 1401: Not Even an Inch of Grass Left Behind

“Greed is really toxic…”

Xiao Leng could not hang on for much longer. If not for the superior-grade divine artifact battle armor wrapped around his body, he would probably be dead already.

His heart was filled with regrets. If he had not been poisoned by greed and coveted after the Primitive Spiritual Treasure on Poison Spirit, he would not have come here for sure. If he did not agree to come, Jiang Yi himself would have thought twice about coming. He would not have been so rash.

Many bones in Xiao Leng’s body were already broken. The two god bandits were very powerful and aggressive. Thankfully, his superior-grade divine artifact battle armor absorbed most of the impact. Otherwise, his entire body would be destroyed by now, not merely his bones.

“Die, die!”

He roared, not caring about the god bandit leaders’ attacks anymore. He went all out at the God Kings instead. Even if he died, he wanted to take as many of them with him as possible. There were no cowards in the Xiao Clan.

He kept waving his long sword around with all his might, and blade lights kept cutting through the air. Each time he waved his sword, he killed one or two God Kings and God Generals. However, he was paying a price. The two leaders of the god bandits kept attacking him, causing him to fly back from the impact each time. More than half of the bones in his body were broken. His internal organs were bleeding, and half of the veins in his body were torn as well. He was getting slower and slower. If this was allowed to carry on, he would be left motionless in less than three minutes. He would be lying there, waiting to die.

Bang!

Once again, he was thrown backward. His body hit the sand hard. Initially, he wanted to jump back up and attack the god bandits again. However, at that moment, he felt a slight movement underground. Xiao Leng frowned. He thought that someone was planning to sneak an attack at him from underground. He waved his long sword at once, dealing an attack at the attacker below.

“En?”

Almost immediately, his long sword halted. He used his divine senses to scan underground and discovered that the man was Jiang Yi.

He heaved a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart when he saw Jiang Yi charging up crazily. There was only one other person beside Jiang Yi. From the looks of it, the rest of the four people had already died in battle. Did Jiang Yi have no other way of escaping? Did he come back to get Xiao Leng to bring him out? Little did he know that Xiao Leng himself was close to dying.

“Eh?”

Very quickly, Xiao Leng realized that there was a dense group of yellow sand worms following closely behind Jiang Yi. The bitter smile on his face widened. Even gods would not be able to save them now. There were so many yellow sand worms; not only them, but all the god bandits—apart from the two leaders and perhaps a couple of peak-stage God Kings—would not be able to run away as well.

“Hahaha!”

Xiao Leng laughed mirthlessly. It was not a bad thing to have two to three hundred god bandits accompanying him in death. He didn’t want to fight anymore. He decided to just wait for Jiang Yi to burst out from underground.

Swish! Swish!

He heard the sound of two figures cutting through the sky. The two leaders of the god bandits were here, and they were prepared to kill Xiao Leng with a final blow. The weapons they had in their hands glowed black, looking like the Netherworld Aura of the Death God. They were ready to claim Xiao Leng’s soul.

.”Uh…”

Their divine senses scanned the area and locked in on Xiao Leng. Just as they were about to attack, they noticed Jiang Yi who was charging towards them from underground. Immediately, their expressions changed; and they exploded, “Everyone, run away! There are a lot of yellow sand worms coming our way…”

Swish, swish, swish, swish!

Once they shouted, countless yellow sand worms shot towards the sky. One by one, they shot out of the ground. There seemed to be an endless flow of them. They covered the entire sky and surrounded the two leaders of the god bandits, as well as the god bandits in the vicinity. More yellow sand worms flew out in all directions. The sound of these yellow sand worms cutting through the air surrounded them. It sounded just like the call of the Death God.

“Run—”

All the god bandits were scared stiff. There were so many yellow sand worms; who would have been able to fight them? Even the Demon-Killing Battle-God-ranked leaders could not fend these worms off for long. The worms did not have any particularly strong mystical ability. However, the most terrifying part about them was their teeth. It was said that their teeth could cause even superior-grade battle armors to break into pieces in just five minutes.

No one hesitated; they did not even bother to finish Xiao Leng off. The two leaders of the god bandits turned into rainbow beams of light as they flew as far as they could, as quickly as they could. The remaining god bandits also escaped in all different directions.

The low-grade God Generals were only able to run a couple of steps before they began to scream out in pain. Their bodies reduced to bones before Jiang Yi’s very eyes. All their battle armors were gnawed into pieces, and their flesh was swallowed by the worms!

Yellow sand worms were just like locusts. They would not even leave an inch of grass behind, wherever they passed by!

“This…”

Xiao Leng, who was still buried in the sand, watched all of this unfold in shock. He let out a gasp and rubbed his face, but he found that the yellow sand worms were flying around him as if they had not even noticed him. They whizzed past, going after the god bandits. However, not one of them came after him.

“Jiang Yi!”

He quickly got yanked back to reality. He looked downward at Jiang Yi, who was flying toward him from below. Jiang Yi was not being attacked by the yellow sand worms either. At that moment, it seemed like the two of them were invisible. At least, it seemed like the yellow sand worms could not see them.

“Old Xiao, I knew you wouldn’t die, hahaha!”

Jiang Yi burst out and pulled Xiao Leng out of the sand. His expression was overjoyed. At once, he retrieved recuperation medicine and fed it to Xiao Leng. In a low voice, he said, “Old Leng, go into my spatial divine item for now. Don’t worry, with me around, you won’t die!”

“With me around, you won’t die…” 

Why did Xiao Leng feel so awkward hearing this from Jiang Yi? He was a Heaven-Emanations-ranked martial artist. Yet, he needed to be protected by Jiang Yi, a mere God General? Wasn’t he the one who was supposed to be saying this to Jiang Yi?

He looked around, his expression turning shocked once again. “Jiang Yi, are you controlling these yellow sand worms?”

“Hehe!”

Jiang Yi laughed but did not offer any explanation. Instead, he retrieved his Chaos Essence Pearl and kept Xiao Leng inside it. Then, he charged into the distance. He was going to… collect his loot from battle.

The yellow sand worms had only been released for a couple of seconds, and yet at least a hundred god bandits had already died. There were divine artifacts peppered throughout the ground. There were also many interspatial rings floating in the air. How could Jiang Yi let all of these things go to waste?

“Alright, the yellow sand worms are coming back. Don’t chase them!”

Jiang Yi made one round and collected many interspatial rings as well as divine artifacts. Then, he gave orders to the little beast hidden inside his sleeve. The two leaders of the god bandits had already escaped. More than ten God Kings escaped as well. The others… were all bitten to death.

“Creak—”

The little beast screamed out loud, and the countless yellow sand worms flew back towards it from all directions. Jiang Yi charged downwards. He did not know whether the two leaders of the god bandits were dead or alive, and there were still tens of God Kings on the loose.

As fast as he could, he headed downwards once again. Three minutes later, he found the God Kings. They were underground—that made his job far easier. He sent a group of yellow sand worms underground. The God Kings struggled for their lives for a while and managed to kill hundreds of yellow sand worms. Ultimately, they still perished.

Jiang Yi’s heart did not hurt at all on seeing these yellow sand worms die. There were countless more yellow sand worms in Spiraling Clouds Mountainous Region. He could easily get the little beast to take thousands or ten thousands more under control.

“Jiang Li, Yun Xue!”

What hurt his heart the most was that after searching underground for about thirty minutes, he finally found the other two commanders. However, these commanders’ corpses were not complete. Both of them had been killed tragically. He also found Zhang Mei’s body. His body was not complete as well. Both of his legs had been cut off when he was alive.

“Kill!”

There were still more than ten God Kings underground. Jiang Yi kept the three corpses in his interspatial ring and then activated his Power of Heaven and Earth. As fast as he could, he searched around for them.

However, after looking for five thousand kilometers, he still could not find the remaining God Kings. It was very likely that they were already above ground. Jiang Yi guessed that they saw the bones littered around and got frightened.

Hoo-hoo!

Jiang Yi finally stopped walking and took in several deep breaths. At last, he looked further underground and then shouted at the little beast. “Help me to control hundreds of thousands more yellow sand worms. Even if we have to flip the entire Spiraling Clouds Mountainous Region around, I want to find all of those god bandits. I want to kill every last one of them. I want to take revenge for Zhang Mei and the rest…”
