Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 819 Snatch

Time passed by like the snip of the scissors, and five months had passed.

The Gods Bestow Island got increasingly lively while the Situ Clan had earned a lot and had also attracted a lot of experts. Their prestige had risen to the point that when the Gods Bestow Island was mentioned by the ordinary martial artists in the Gods Bestow Tribe, they would only talk about the Situ Clan and had completely neglected the Lei Clan.

The Soaring Dragon Merchant Association had also started to operate secretly. It had allowed the eight big clans to earn extremely big profits from a few flawless transactions. Qian Wanguan had also become even more popular and prestigious. Situ Ao had quietly changed their clan’s supervisory team member to Situ Yinian. The meaning behind it was very clear. He had already agreed to this marriage, and it would depend on Qian Wanguan’s abilities whether he could win Situ Yinian’s heart.

It was very peaceful within Jiang Castle.

Huangfu Taotian, Jiang Xiaonu, and Zhan Wushuang had gone into seclusion. Other than accompanying Feng Luan and Qing Yu, Yun Fei would study about restrictions. She had studied and comprehended half of the Witch God’s restrictions. Furthermore, she was about to create her own restriction. According to Situ Yixiao, Yun Fei’s restriction standard had already reached the master level. A level more, and she would reach the highest level, the Grandmaster level.

The little fox hadn’t awakened, and the Yazi Beast would be fast asleep the whole day. Besides cultivating, Jiang Yi would spend his day on painting. His comprehension was pretty good, and his painting skills were already comparable to Feng Luan’s. This caused Feng Luan to be extremely ashamed while she adored Jiang Yi even more. She had been practicing for more than ten years.

Jiang Yi cultivated his essence force very quickly under the cultivation speed which was a thousand times faster, and his fifth star was about to transform. What caused him to be gloomy was that his dao pattern had yet to make any progress. Contradictory, his Heaven-Extinguishing Inferno sorcery had made significant progress. Currently, he was already able to condense the Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames, and the next step would be condensing the Nine Heavens’ Sky Flames. He had no idea if the Nine Heavens’ Sky Flames was comparable to the Thunder Fire. However, he was certain that it would be too far apart because he had comprehended another fire-element dao pattern, the Fire Explosion Flame due to this sorcery art. Of course, this was just a low-grade dao pattern.

He had yet to be spiritually connected to his Fire Cloud Armor. He was also unable to spiritually connect to his Mother Earth Armor and Primal Chaos Iron Ruler. It was unknown if this was plotted by Lei Qiyan secretly. They were just ordinary pseudo-divine artifacts since he was unable to be spiritually connected to them, and it would be better for Jiang Yi to just use his Fire Dragon Sword.

Speaking of the Fire Dragon Sword, Jiang Yi had extracted out the Fire Spirit Pearl to let Situ Yixiao appraise and restore it because more than half of the restrictions within the Fire Dragon Sword had been badly damaged. It would definitely be a priceless treasure if he could repair them.

It was a pity.

Situ Clan’s Tool Refinement Master was unable to appraise the grade of the Fire Dragon Sword. He was only able to determine this was at least a transcending saint artifact. He was unable to repair the restriction within because none of the Tool Refinement Masters had seen it before.

There was a Tool Refinement Grand Master in the Huangfu Clan. Unfortunately, Huangfu Taotian and the Huangfu Clan were like water and fire, and so he could forget about it. The Fire Dragon Sword’s attacking power might have dropped by a little. However, the Fire Spirit Pearl could fuse with the Fire Dragon Sword. The Fire Spirit Rock which was originally within the Fire Spirit Pearl, and the pearl’s formidable ability to repel fire, allowing Jiang Yi to determine how extraordinary the Fire Dragon Sword was. It was certainly not an ordinary transcending saint artifact.

“More than half a year had passed, and my dao pattern had yet to fuse together. Should I head out for a walk? If I’m to continue secluding, would I be unable to fuse them for this lifetime?”

Jiang Yi flashed and appeared outside of the Thearch Palace. He looked at the blooming flowers in the courtyard with his brows filled with worries. The longer the time had passed, the more worried he got as he felt like he had lived here for a very long time.

Shh-shh-shh!

It was at this moment, hasty footsteps could be heard from the outside. He lifted up his head and saw Qian Wanguan walking in with a face filled with worries. His heart sunk. Recently, Qian Wanguan had become very steady-minded, and he would never display such expression even if a big incident had happened. Could something major had happened?

“Boss!”

Qian Wanguan had successfully slimmed down. Although he was still somewhat chubby, it was still acceptable. He walked in with large steps and sent a message over from afar: “We had just obtained this news. Lei Qiyan had gone to the Nangong Clan to propose marriage and wish to take Big Sister Bell as his wife. It was reported that Nangong Yunyi had already agreed to it!”

“What?”

It was like a thunder resonating out from the clear sky. Immediately, Jiang Yi’s complexion changed. He turned his eyes around for a few circles before replying coldly, “Didn’t Big Sister Bell said that she was a widow? Besides, didn’t Lei Qiyan already marry the Qu Clan’s Young Lady as his wife? How is it possible for Nangong Yunyi to agree to it?”

Qian Wanguan walked to Jiang Yi’s side and replied solemnly, “Precisely because she was a widow. Therefore, Lei Qiyan is marrying Big Sister Bell over to be his concubine. Clearly, the two clans are trying to form an alliance through marriage!”

Recently, the Situ Clan’s influence had grown and had united with the eight big clans to suppress the Lei Clan. The Huangfu Clan had also joined in as well. Therefore, the Lei Clan could only rely on the Nangong Clan to form an alliance. Nangong Yunyi might be harsh and old-fashioned, but he was willing to sacrifice anything when it comes to the clan’s interest. It was similar to Huangfu Taotian and Lei Zihan’s engagement. Huangfu Qi hated Lei Tingwei down to his bones, but Lei Zihan likes Huangfu Taotian. He had also agreed to this alliance by marriage because of the clan’s interest. After all, Lei Clan was the number one clan.

“Bullsh*t alliance through marriage!”

Jiang Yi’s eyes sparkled in cold rays, and the killing intent on his body grew austere. He let out a mocking smile. “Lei Qiyan is trying to take revenge on me. He wants to toy with Big Sister Bell to make reprisals on me. He must have investigated the relation between me and Big Sister Bell.”

Qian Wanguan massaged his temples and sighed. “Boss, don’t be worried. Currently, they had just gotten engaged and have yet to marry each other. There’s definitely some way to solve this. Previously, Big Sister Bell was married to a Lu Clan’s Young Master. Before she had moved in, the Lu Clan’s Young Master had died while trying to challenge a mystic realm. Therefore, she would have to live as a widow for seven years according to the tribe tradition. There’s still one year left.”

“One year?”

Jiang Yi nodded his head. However, he spoke in a somewhat agonized manner, “What other means are there? This is the Nangong Clan’s matters, and we are unable to meddle with it. Don’t tell me we have to snatch her away? Nangong Clan is filled with experts. Even if we manage to snatch her away, we could only escape out of Sin Island after that. I’m fine with it, but your future would be ruined.”

“Huff-huff...”

Qian Wanguan put off a long breath. In fact, he had already guessed what Jiang Yi’s reaction would be when he obtained the news. Jiang Yi attached great importance to sentiments, and Big Sister Bell was like an elder sister to him. Furthermore, she had done them a great favor. It was impossible for him to look at her walk into the pit of fire helplessly.

For this period of time, Lei Qiyan maintained very low-profiled. He had closed his door and stayed within the Lei Clan. He never found any trouble with Jiang Yi and Qian Wanguan, but even if one were to use their toes to think, they would know that he was trying to take revenge on Jiang Yi. Otherwise, why would he choose to take Big Sister Bell as his wife when there were so many other young ladies in the Nangong Clan? After all, a widow’s reputation was never good.

It was a slap to Jiang Yi’s face after he had married Big Sister Bell. Once she had become his concubine, Lei Qiyan could toy her any way he wished. He would also be able to vent all his anger he received from Jiang Yi on Big Sister Bell.

Jiang Yi’s anger soared when he thought of this as he paced back and forth in his courtyard. Half a day later, he lifted up his head and spoke to Qian Wanguan abruptly, “Wanguan, think of a way to let me meet Big Sister Bell.”

“This...”

Qian Wanguan started to hesitate. A moment later, he nodded his head, “Alright. The day after tomorrow is Yixiao’s birthday. I will send someone over to invite Nangong Muyu and Big Sister Bell using mine, Yixiao, Yinian, and your name. Probably, Nangong Clan should understand our intentions. If they aren’t going to give us any face, I will no longer be giving Nangong Muyu any face in the future as well.”

“En!”

Jiang Yi nodded his head. However, he held no hopes. After all, Nangong Muyu didn’t give him any face when he went over to the Nangong Clan to asked if he could meet Big Sister Bell.

“Boss, don’t be rash!”

Qian Wanguan narrated heavily, “We shall see if I could strike a business deal with the Nangong Clan. If we really can’t, I will arrange to snatch her with you. At worse, we will just have to continue roaming the world.”

“How can I?”

Jiang Yi was startled. If Qian Wanguan was to join in, it would be no different from starting a war with the Lei and Situ Clan. All of his efforts for this period of time would be wasted, and the marriage between him and Situ Yinian would be dashed.

Qian Wanguan patted onto Jiang Yi’s shoulder in an unconcerned manner, “Boss, you don’t have to be worried about me. If Yinian truly likes me, she would definitely elope with me. If she isn’t willing to follow me, what’s the use of having such a woman then? Since when would a man be worried about not getting a wife?”
