Chapter 145: Night Feather Race

For the following days, everything had gone smoothly. The Mt. Black Clouds was practically filled with only tier-one and tier-two demonic beasts. Jiang Yi relied on the Massacre Intent to hunt twice a day and would begin cultivating in the evening before going to sleep at midnight.

Qian Wanguan had brought him 1000 Earth Dragon Elixirs when Jiang Yi was already running out of Earth Essence Elixirs. Without the boost from the cultivation room, he had a much slower cultivation speed. With the assistance from the earth-tier superior grade Earth Dragon Elixir and the use to the black essence force to enhance the effects, the medicinal effects were almost equivalent to a heaven-tier elixir. With the drastic increase in cultivation speed, Jiang Yi didn’t unreasonably reject this offer.

Jiang Yi knew that he had owed Qian Wanguan too much, and he could only repay him by quickly increasing his strength. He made a decision in his heart that once he had ten million purple gold, he would continue to hunt more demonic beasts. He would change them all into purple gold for Qian Wanguan. Also, with excess purple gold, he would be able to purchase higher graded elixirs to assist his cultivation.

There was something that made Jiang Yi rather gloomy. After about two weeks of hunting, the number of demonic beasts in the Mt. Black Clouds had obviously decreased. Every time they lit up the Ambergris, it would take about one hour before a hundred demonic beasts gathered.

There was nothing that could be done about this. After all, the demonic beasts from the Mt. Black Clouds came from the deeper areas of Mt. Thirty Thousand. There might be plenty of demonic beasts in the deeper areas, but it was impossible that these demonic beasts would come over every single day.

They were already having quite a good time here—compared to those that went in to hunt. It would take days before they could even meet one demonic beast. Due to them cutting off the demonic beasts that were supposed to overflow to the nearby area of the Mt. Spirit Beast College, the demonic beasts over at the college’s side had also drastically decreased. For the recent few days, most of the Write-In Cadets were not able to complete their daily task. A Vice Principal had no choice but to personally investigate.

When the Vice Principal knew that it was Jiang Yi, Qian Wanguan, and Zhan Wushuang who were hunting these demonic beasts, he didn’t say anything and led his men back. He clearly knew how highly Zhuge Qingyun regarded Jiang Yi, and even if he reported this to the Principal, the Principal would just laugh it off.

Within these two weeks, there were a few peak-grade tier-two demonic beasts; and each time Jiang Yi met with danger, it was ultimately the Qian Clan’s secret guard who assisted. Otherwise, Jiang Yi would have to utilize the Fire Spirit Rock.

Qian Wanguan and Zhan Wushuang were not satisfied with the peak grade tier-two demonic beasts and didn’t want to tame it, and so was Jiang Yi. Peak-grade tier-two demonic beasts weren’t bad, but the trio was hoping to tame a tier-three demonic beast.

During this period of time, Qian Wanguan asked his men to bring in plenty of good things, renovating this stone cave into a lavish small palace. There would be a plethora of good wine and dishes served daily. The life in this wilderness was as comfortable as living in a major city.

Zhan Wushuang took a trip back and brought Zhan Lin’er over, too. Previously, he thought that it wasn’t suitable for his sister to live in the wilderness; and he—who doted on this younger sister—naturally couldn’t be at ease for leaving her alone in the college.

“Wu-Wu—”

On this day, everyone began a new round of hunting. Zhan Wushuang was still cultivating within the cave, but Zhan Lin’er came out a long time ago and was excitedly looking at the oncoming demonic beasts. Her eyes were glistening, and it was obvious that she was searching for a demonic beast of her liking to tame.

“Xiao ¹ Lin’er, why do you wear a veil every day?”

After many interactions with Zhan Lin’er, Jiang Yi was rather familiar with her now; and he couldn’t help but ask. A female that liked to wear a veil would either be too ugly or too beautiful. But with a single glance at Zhan Lin’er, it was obvious she wouldn’t be of the ugly side.

Zhan Lin’er was stumped for words. She lowered her head and muttered for a moment before explaining, “Big Brother Jiang Yi. My mother is from the Night Feather Race, and I have been living with her since a young age. This is why I am influenced by her. My mother told me that our race’s females can only allow their husbands to see their own looks!”

“Night Feather Race?”

Jiang Yi suspiciously blinked his eyes. Qian Wanguan then moved close to whisper and explained: “It is a type of Special Race. The females of their race have naturally soft bodies that are most suitable for the ‘bed’. And because of this, the females of this Special Race would always be caught and auctioned off. Zhan Lin’er’s mother was bought by Zhan Wushuang’s father, and they have very inferior status in the clan…”

“So that’s how it works!”

Jiang Yi suddenly understood why Zhan Lin’er treated Zhan Wushuang with hostility. It was because they were also siblings who had the same father but different mothers. Zhan Lin’er’s mother didn’t have a high status in the clan, and she must have suffered countless indifferent treatments. It was natural for Zhan Lin’er to have resentment towards the other clansmen.

Jiang Yi turned back to see the sadness in Zhan Lin’er’s eyes, which looked like that were reminiscing of the past or was feeling inferior. He extended a hand to rub her head and said softly, “Lin’er, there is no need to brood over it. We are unable to control our own birth, but we can control our own fate. If I have to say it, I am even more pitiful than you. I am an illegitimate child, and my mother died when she gave birth to me. But what of it? Aren’t I doing well now?”

“En-En!”

There was a flash of tears in the eyes of Zhan Lin’er, making her eyes glistened beautifully. Soon enough, her eyes were attracted by a demonic beast that was flying over from a distance. Her pearl-like eyes were filled with excitement as she exclaimed, “Big Brother Jiang Yi. I want that demonic beast as my spirit beast. Help me tame it!”

“Flaming Bird?”

Qian Wanguan swept his gaze and squinted his eyes. “This Flaming Bird is beautiful and has the strength of a peak-grade tier-two. It is most suited for Sister Lin’er to tame.”

“Chirp-Chirp!”

A giant and vicious avian, which was red in color, flew over from the western skies. The entire body was covered in fiery red feathers and was extremely gorgeous. Jiang Yi nodded and informed Qian Wanguan: “Ask Liu Lao to look over me. I am afraid my Massacre Intent may not be able to suppress this Flaming Bird! After I seriously injure this Flaming Bird, then as Lin’er to come and tame it.”

“Okay, Boss. You be careful!”

Qian Wanguan nodded. His means of doing things were brilliant. These young masters and ladies from the various clans shouldn’t be able to make use of their secret guards, but he had his ways of making Liu Lao do some minor things. The last few times when Jiang Yi was in danger, it was Liu Lao who shot out his essence force to help slay the beasts.

Of course… the reason why Liu Lao interfered without exception was that he highly regarded Jiang Yi’s potential. Seeing Jiang Yi’s relationship with Qian Wanguan, the Qian Clan would definitely benefit in the future when Jiang Yi developed into a formidable existence.

“Bang!”

Seeing that Flaming Bird dive, Jiang Yi burst forth towards it and poured out his Massacre Intent in mid-air.

“Damn it!”

What made Jiang Yi startled was—once his Massacre Intent was released, the vicious aura from the Flaming Bird was instantly withdrawn. Its eyes suddenly shone with a ray of red light and immediately activated its demonic arts. The splendidly-red mouth opened and was about to spray out horrifying flames.

“En?”

Liu Lao and Zhan Wushuang’s secret guard immediately emerged from the cave. There was a flash of chilling light in Liu Lao’s eyes as he flew towards Jiang Yi with lightning speed. One of his hands were radiating with essence force and was about to shoot at this Flaming Bird.

“Liu Lao, don’t do it!”

At this moment, Jiang Yi suddenly burst out shouting to stop Liu Lao.

The fiery red pearl in his hand suddenly resonated, followed by some kind of indescribable energy transmitting to his body. The surface of Jiang Yi’s body had this pale translucent layer of light. When the horrific flames surged over and made contact with the layer of light, the flames vanished without a trace!

“Huh…”

Liu Lao and the other secret guard, Ji Lao, had their eyes widened and were all stupefied. Qian Wanguan and Zhan Lin’er’s mouth were so wide-opened; they could even swallow a whole egg.

Jiang Yi’s expression didn’t have any cheerful expression after this calamity; instead, his eyes were filled with doubt. He completely ignored the Flaming Bird in the sky as his mind was within the Fire Spirit Pearl. He muttered with astonishment, “Isn’t this Fire Spirit Pearl a spatial divine item? Why can it automatically absorb flames?”
