Chapter 951: Starting at Any Moment

The night was like cold water. The moonlight was dusky, and it made the wilderness very hazy. The large mountains were like giant crouching beasts which made the heart palpitate.

Jiang Yi was hidden in a shrub on a mountain peak, and in his nearby 100-mile radius, there were plenty of scouts hiding as sentries, too. They were all Vajra Realm martial artists like his current aura presence, making him unremarkable, especially to important figures who would simply ignore him.

Jiang Yi’s plan was to hide here and wait for Wu Ni’s Heaven Fate Ship to pass through, and he would immediately burst out and kill.

The advantage of this plan allowed him to get near the Heaven Fate Ship and had the element of surprise. Wu Ni’s Heaven Fate Ship was definitely not going to fly too high as the four other Heaven Fate Ships were just middle-grade Heaven Fate Ships and couldn’t withstand the astral winds at high altitudes. According to Jiang Yi’s guesses, the Heaven Fate Ships would only be flying at a few hundred meters in the sky; and he would be able to instantaneously rush to the vicinity of the Heaven Fate Ship.

Of course, everything had its advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage was that Jiang Yi was hiding in an obvious place and would definitely be spotted by the experts on the Heaven Fate Ship.

The four Heaven Fate Ships would surely have countless experts releasing their divine senses to scout the area, and if the opposition was acting cautiously, they might silently order for all the nearby scouts to be eliminated. After all, it was just a casual attack from them; and it would also serve as deterrence for the surrounding bandit legions.

Most importantly… would Wu Ni be located in the center Heaven Fate Ship?

This was something that Jiang Yi had no information of. The Shadow Emperor’s men didn’t have exact details on which Heaven Fate Ship was Wu Ni on. If he wasn’t on the center Heaven Fate Ship, then Jiang Yi would have wasted this opportunity and would be in a perilous situation.

He might be able to find Wu Ni’s accurate position if he impersonated Wu Gang, but it was currently nighttime. With Wu Gang’s little strength, it was impossible for him to travel in the night. Even if Wu Gang was traveling, he would be on a Heaven Fate Ship. If he had impersonated Wu Gang, it would instantly be exposed due to Ji Tingyu’s intelligence; and there would be immediate orders to kill him.

Jiang Yi could only bet that Wu Ni was in the center Heaven Fate Ship.

Logically, Wu Ni had plenty of experts, and he wouldn’t be so prudent after entering the North Snow Region. Wu Ni had the pride that was in the bones of the Nine Thearchs Clans’ members, and he definitely wouldn’t act like a coward street rat.

As time ticked by, Jiang Yi’s breath gradually hastened; and he could feel his blood burning. The imminent battle had made him excited, and this was an instinctive reaction from a martial artist.

One hour later, Jiang Yi released his Divine Perception to scout; and after making sure that the route of the Heaven Fate Ship didn’t alter, he let out a breath of relief. The Heaven Fate Ship at the front was about to fly over his head, and he didn’t dare to reckless scout anymore. He was like a panther hidden in the shrubbery and looking around warily exactly like a scout from a bandit legion.

“Something isn’t right…”

After contemplating for a moment, Jiang Yi felt that something was wrong. His Divine Perception scanned over to the nearby scouts, and he quickly smiled bitterly. He was too professional in his impersonation as the rest of the scouts were snoring in their sleep. If he was to be so wary, it would definitely be suspicious.

His entire body relaxed and shifted to a large tree by the side. He leaned on the large tree with pretense and no longer scouted with his divine senses. He quietly waited for the fish to take the bait.

Chi! Chi!

Thirty minutes later, a sky-piercing sound echoed from the west, and a medium-sized Heaven Fate Ship was swiftly piercing through the air. When the barrier of the Heaven Fate Shop was attacked by the astral winds, it emitted with a dazzling radiance which allowed one to see it from far away.

“Here it is!”

When Jiang Yi heard the sound he didn’t open his eyes, he released his Divine Perception and scanned the nearby scouts instead. He then noticed that had all jumped up from shock and were creeping on the ground with eyes filled with fear. He quickly opened his eyes, learned from them, and dove into a shrubbery with eyes of fear.

Swish! Swish!

As the Heaven Fate Ship arrived, Jiang Yi immediately felt close to a thousand powerful divine senses which scanned across his body. He acted well as he was crouched on the ground and didn’t even dare to raise his head. His body was trembling as though he was truly frightened by the aura presence from the experts.

Thirty kilometers, seventeen kilometers… three kilometers!

Jiang Yi’s body was shaking even more intensively, and he wasn’t pretending because he was nervous. If this group of people was to casually attack, his plan would be immediately foiled.

Swish! Swish!

The Heaven Fate Ship finally flew over his head, and even more, powerful aura presences were emitted from the Heaven Fate Ship. Jiang Yi was ecstatic because… the experts in the Heaven Fate Ship didn’t think it was worth it to kill him. Although some divine senses scanned him repeatedly, they didn’t have the intention to make a move.

The Heaven Fate Ship flew straight towards Flood Martial City, and Jiang Yi let out a sigh and wiped his cold sweat. He continued to cower in the shrub and didn’t dare to move as that large Heaven Fate Ship was just 100 miles away. It would be here in less than 30 minutes, and the battle was going to start at any moment.

Buzz!

Right at this moment, an illusion zone over 30 miles ahead had a slight movement, and a few dozen individuals emerged and moved stealthily near the ground, scattering out soon. They were obviously a small scout team which was alerted by that Heaven Fate Ship and was out here to conduct a reconnaissance.

“Damn!”

When Jiang Yi’s divine senses swept over, he cursed silently. That large Heaven Fate Ship was about to arrive; what were these bandits here for? If they were to spoil his plan, it would truly be damned.

“…”

Fifteen minutes later, something happened that infuriated Jiang Yi. Two scouts actually approached him and were just a few miles away from him. The two of them were Vajra Realm martial artists, and if they came any nearer, their divine senses would be able to detect him. There might be a battle that could possibly alert the people on the large Heaven Fate Ship.

“What should I do?”

Jiang Yi’s eyes flickered, and his heart was burning like hotcakes. The Heaven Fate Ship was about to arrive and such an incident happened.

“Kill!”

His eyes spun around as he quickly had an idea. He must not let the two scouts get near him, or everything would be ruined. Two soul swords emerged from his glabella and flew like phantoms. It was too easy to deal with the two Vajra Realm martial artists as he could simply kill them with his soul swords.

The soul swords weren’t comparable to astral winds, but Jiang Yi’s soul spirit was powerful enough to control the soul swords to travel over ten miles with ease. Of course, it was because he was dealing with two Vajra Realm martial artists. If he was dealing with Heaven Monarchs, he wouldn’t dare to act recklessly as the soul swords would be detected when flying from so far away and would be destroyed.

Swish!

He had shot out two golden soul swords, and their speed was much faster than the ordinary soul swords. Two divine rainbows flew in the wilderness and traveled across a few miles in just a few breaths, reaching the vicinity of the two Vajra Realm scouts.

“Ah? What is this?”

“Uh, enem…”

The two scouts were shocked. One of them was about to yell out that an enemy was attacking, but Jiang Yi’s soul swords were so fast. A golden light rushed into the scout’s soul spirit in a flash and destroyed the soul spirit.

“My Lord, please spare my life! Please spare my life!”

The other scout was very quick-witted and didn’t dare to yell. He didn’t even bother about the soul sword in his soul spirit and immediately knelt down, constantly kowtowed, and begged for mercy.

Jiang Yi originally wanted to kill him, but his heart jolted for a moment. He controlled the soul sword to stop in the scout’s soul spirit sea and didn’t kill the scout. He realized a problem… would Wu Ni and the others be suspicious if two corpses appeared in this place?

“I cannot kill him!”

Jiang Yi’s mind thought quickly before he locked onto the scout and transmitted a message: “If you want to live, then shut your mouth and act according to my instructions. Otherwise, I will kill you without hesitation. I can crush you just like crushing an ant.”

“Yes, yes!” That person quickly responded and kowtowed endlessly with a face that was frightened stiff.

“Store that corpse by your side in the ancient divine essence ring, quickly!” Jiang Yi transmitted a message, and that person immediately followed the orders. Jiang Yi then ordered the scout to crouch and stay still.

Chi! Chi!

Right at this moment, there was a sky-piercing sound that came from the east, and that giant Heaven Fate Ship whizzed over. It was twice as large as the previous Heaven Fate Ship, but the speed was similar.

Jiang Yi quickly withdrew the two soul swords and transmitted a message to the scout at the same time: “When the Heaven Fate Ship gets near, immediately flee to the north and as fast as you can. If you don’t do it, I will kill you instantly.”
