Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Panda Novel

Once Jiang Yi appeared outside his pavilion—as he expected, he found a few spies. Also, these spies were not as obvious as before; they had moved into the nearby pavilions and had only lightly swept their divine senses on him. If Jiang Yi didn’t have his State of the Union of Heaven and Man and his ultra-sensitive senses, he would probably not have discovered their presence.

Despite the east city being the home of the Demon-Killing Pavilion disciples, that the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan managing to send people into the nearby pavilions showed how powerful they were. The more obvious scouts had also all left. This was probably to let Jiang Yi loosen his guard and accept missions that would make him leave the Divine Eagle Tribe.

Jiang Yi also did not know if these spies had realized he was in disguise. He swiftly headed towards the south city and took a few turns on the streets. He found a deserted area and changed his looks again. He then continued to walk leisurely as he kept a lookout, changing his disguise multiple times. He finally transformed into an elder wearing a cloak and entered that nameless castle.

This castle was actually a small-scale black market; it was also the most boisterous place in the south city. One only needed to spend one divine root to set up a stall. No one would care what the person would sell.

Of course, one could not buy or sell by coercion here. This castle was the property of the Earth Emanations Pavilion. Although there were no Earth Emanations soldiers inside, there were a few plainclothes guards. Once someone caused trouble, the Earth Emanations Army would probably arrive soon after.

Jiang Yi entered a room inside the castle, exchanged a divine root, and received a piece of black cloth. He found a corner and placed the first part of the ‘secret manual’ on the black cloth. He also used a print cloth to cover the ‘secret manual’ and then took out a piece of paper and wrote a few words on it: Selling a mystical ability secret art, ten thousand divine roots; no bargaining.

The castle was extremely huge; there were twenty side halls in it. Almost a thousand people were selling all sorts of treasures at the moment. However, only a very few were selling treasures worth ten thousand divine roots. After all, if one had such an expensive treasure, ordinary people would have long gone to the Crazed God Castle to sell it off. All who could go to the Crazed God Castle were formidable martial artists or disciples of great family clans; people could sell their treasures for a high price there. This place was only a small black market, and there weren’t many important people who would visit.

Jiang Yi laid everything out and then sat cross-legged like a monk. People walked about the castle, and a few thousand people were chatting idly at any one time. Many were also attracted by Jiang Yi’s offer and were discussing it among themselves. Jiang Yi did not bother talking to them, allowing them to investigate on their own. He also did not do any bargaining, waiting for someone willing to fall into the snare.

In only two hours, at least a hundred people had come over to make inquiries. However, the exorbitant price of ten thousand divine roots made many turn away instantly. Indeed, too many fake goods were being sold in this black market; many people did not dare to take the risk. However, they were intrigued by Jiang Yi’s ‘mystical ability secret art’ and decided to hang around, not willing to leave.

“Three thousand, six hundred, and fifty divine roots; that is all that I have in total. Old monk, please sell it to me…

“I can give you all the six divine artifacts that I own. My Lord, take pity on me!”

A Demon-Killing Pavilion disciple almost wanted to kneel down in front of Jiang Yi as he took out all the money and treasures he possessed, hoping Jiang Yi would sell the ‘Wind Thearch Technique’ to him. Actually, Jiang Yi felt that three thousand over divine roots was not a bad offer. However, he felt that if he could fool a few more idiots like this, he could definitely get ten thousand divine roots.

However, Jiang Yi did not bother with this man. It wasn’t because Jiang Yi was greedy; it was because this person was from the Demon-Killing Pavilion. Jiang Yi now felt like a part of the Demon-Killing Pavilion and had started to treat its members like his family. As disciples of the same faction, Jiang Yi would not deceive one of his own.

Of course, he was not so silly to tell this person that it was a fake. Hence, Jiang Yi kept his head low as he sat cross-legged, not saying a single word. He continued to wait for anyone important to come knocking.

Unfortunately…

Everyone that came here was all non-consequential. There were very few God General level martial artists. After waiting for six hours, the next highest bid was only a thousand over divine roots from a member of the Earth Emanations Pavilion. This person had also begged bitterly for one hour. However, Jiang Yi did not relent. He could not do such transactions multiple times; it was easy for trouble to come knocking. He had to wait for one rich fool, and that would be it.

Six hours passed!

The number of people around Jiang Yi not only did not decrease but had increased with time; there were forty to fifty people now. These people were full of fire as they stared at the secret manual in front of Jiang Yi. More than a thousand people had taken a look at it. However, the highest bidder was still that Demon-Killing Pavilion disciple. Fortunately, that Demon-Killing Pavilion disciple had waited for two hours, and seeing that Jiang Yi refused to budge, he had no alternative but to leave.

“Old monk, old monk!”

After another hour, that Demon-Killing Pavilion disciple actually came back. What made Jiang Yi speechless was—this person had actually brought He Wei along. He Wei was very outgoing and loved to make friends. His father was also on good terms with Commander Liu. Hence, He Wei had been having a good time in the Demon-Killing Pavilion. This person had obviously gone to ask He Wei to borrow divine roots; He Wei’s father must have given him a considerable amount of them.

He Wei looked at the secret manual in detail, gritted his teeth, and said, “Brother Liu, I cannot really understand this manual. If you really want to buy it, I can only lend you three thousand divine roots.”

“Brother He is indeed a good brother!”

The Demon-Killing Pavilion disciple excitedly patted He Wei’s shoulder as his gaze turned to Jiang Yi, saying, “Adding that, I have eight thousand divine roots. Old monk, please sell this to me! This is the most I can borrow already.”

Damn…

Jiang Yi was utterly speechless. Putting aside the fact that three thousand of the divine roots came from He Wei—even if they didn’t, Jiang Yi would never cheat someone from the Demon-Killing Pavilion. Even if someone from the Demon-Killing Pavilion gave him ten thousand divine roots, he would not sell. Thus, Jiang Yi adamantly opened his mouth and said, “No, I will not sell even one divine root cheaper!”

As Jiang Yi’s voice had also been changed, not even He Wei could figure out it was him. However, Jiang Yi exchanged a glance with He Wei and gave him a very special look.

He Wei and Jiang Yi had spent some time together; He Wei was very familiar with this look. After being stunned for a moment, He Wei immediately sent a voice transmission: “Damn, it is actually you. Where did you get your hands on such a powerful mystical ability secret art? No… this is a fake, right? Haha, at least you have a conscience. Brother Liu is the grandnephew of Commander Liu; if you had cheated him, Commander Liu would really have saved you for nothing.”

He Wei was very smart. He had only exchanged a few glances with Jiang Yi and had understood his intent. He Wei was also very cooperative. He did not persuade Commander Liu’s grandnephew but stood at one side to watch the proceedings. He wanted to see if Jiang Yi could really cheat an idiot.

Shh-shh-shh!

At this moment, a group of beautiful women walked by from afar. All of them wore mysterious veils that covered all their faces; even their eyes could not be seen. Furthermore, even He Wei’s divine senses also failed. Jiang Yi took a look at the group and actually recognized one of them.

This lady was too prominent; her airs were so high just like a snow lotus flower from heaven mountain. No one dared to get close to her.

Luo Qingyan!

The only daughter of the City Lord had actually found her way to this black market? This black market was located in the poorer districts; for a lady like her—even if she really wanted to shop about, she should have gone to the Crazed God Castle, right?

Jiang Yi could not understand this. Luo Qingyan and company had evidently been attracted by the crowd here. A few of the ladies parted the crowd as Luo Qingyan walked gracefully to the front. She gave a look to one of her ladies and one of them brought the secret manual to her. She perused it for a while and then very firmly said, “Ten thousand divine roots, I will buy this!”

.”Uh…”

Jiang Yi and He Wei exchanged a glance; their eyes narrowed slightly.

He Wei’s mouth revealed a sliver of a smile. Although he did not recognize Luo Qingyan, as this lady seemed to be from a rich family—even if she realized she bought a fake, she would not come and find trouble with Jiang Yi. Young ladies like her had too many divine roots to spend. If she came to pursue the matter, wouldn’t that tell people she was taken for a fool, that she couldn’t tell real from fake?

Jiang Yi, however, hesitated. Luo Qingyan had helped him at Crazed God Castle. If it wasn’t for her, he would not have managed to get back to the tribe; he would probably be dead now. To cheat someone who had saved him? Jiang Yi could not do something like that. Hence, he paused and said, “I’m sorry. I do not wish to sell this secret art anymore!”

“You’re not selling?”

Luo Qingyan suddenly became cold as she said in a domineering voice, “I am definitely buying this mystical ability secret art today! I have taken the product. If you want divine roots, go to my manor to retrieve them. Of course, if you are unhappy, you can summon the Earth Emanations Army and accuse me of forced selling and forced buying!”
