Chapter 1116: Pure Heart and Spirit

Jiang Yi easily cleared mountain after mountain, killing demonic beasts without much trouble. Within three days, he had cleared yet another twenty-odd mountains and had reached the forty-eighth mountain. He only had to clear the last mountain before arriving at the Wild Spirit Village and be able to enter the fifth stage.

“Let’s take a break!”

Although Yin Ruobing hadn’t had to fight much the past three days, the Demon Sovereign they encountered at the previous mountain was already very strong; the last mountain would definitely be even harder. Hence, Jiang Yi decided to take a break for a couple of hours for both of them to replenish their energies.

There didn’t seem to be any danger resting in between mountains. Jiang Yi and Yin Ruobing cuddled and sat under a huge tree as they enjoyed the blowing cool breeze. The two of them were very satisfied. Yin Ruobing closed her eyes and rested in Jiang Yi’s embrace, both her hands hugging onto Jiang Yi’s neck, her mouth turning into a small arc. She was just like a young lady going through puberty, enjoying her alone time with her partner immensely.

“Ruobing, since we are already lovers, there are some things I cannot hide from you. That would be disrespectful.” Jiang Yi gently held onto Yin Ruobing’s shoulder, smiled bitterly, and said, “Actually, I do have a few other women that I cannot abandon. Will… you mind?”

Yin Ruobing’s expression did not change much. Only the smile on her face grew slightly strained. She did not raise her head but sighed slightly and said, “My Majesty Father has many wives, too; so does my granddad and my cousins. Sigh… this world is one where men are superior to women. I have long known this; you men are all not good things.”

Jiang Yi awkwardly scratched his nose and asked gently, “Aren’t you angry?”

“Angry!”

Yin Ruobing raised her head and looked at Jiang Yi seriously, saying, “Not one woman would want to share her man with another woman. No woman doesn’t want to be whole-heartedly loved by one man. Although I had been used to it since young, I would be lying if I said I didn’t have anything to say about this. Jiang Yi, I only have one request. When you are with me, you cannot think about other women. In front of me, you also cannot flirt with other women. What somebody doesn’t see can’t hurt them. If not, I will become a nun.”

“En, I promise you!”

Jiang Yi hugged Yin Ruobing tightly; his love for Yin Ruobing had increased by much. This was a lady with a pure heart and spirit. She was intelligent and knew what she should fight for and what she should give in. She had her own thoughts and was not like any other woman that would just blindly follow along; she was not a lady so deeply in love that she would allow herself to be manipulated and ordered around by a man. This was a woman with character and was also the type that men would fall in love with most easily.

After talking and cuddling with Yin Ruobing for four hours, they continued their journey again. This time, he did not dare to be overconfident. He asked Yin Ruobing to be fully armed and follow behind him as he activated his Astral Winds Divine Shield, holding his flexible sword in hand and looking very serious.

“Chu-chu!”

A group of avians flew towards them from a mountain peak far away. Their eyes were like blood moons, and their claws were like silver hooks. Their feathers were like iron arrows and though they were not big, their aura was astonishing. The most important thing was their numbers. They were many and numbered at least a thousand.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The avians did not wait for Jiang Yi to attack. At ten thousand feet away, their feathers transformed into iron arrows and were all released at once. The scene was very impressive and imposing. Furthermore, these feathers all had a faint glow to them. These ten thousand arrows flying through the sky also generated a terrifying sound, creating fear in the hearts of those who were listening.

Bang, bang, bang!

At the same time, a tremor could be felt underground. Numerous spiders as big as buckets emerged from the ground. They were just like a horde of ants, but each had huge stomachs as if they were pregnant. Their mouths also dripped with a green substance; it evidently contained lethal poison.

“This place is indeed dangerous!”

Jiang Yi was quietly astonished and looked at Yin Ruobing who was standing ten thousand feet behind him. He relaxed after realizing that none of the monsters were targeting her. Jiang Yi zigzagged about in mid-air and released his Divine Sound Heaven Skill and sent forth his astral wind blades. At the same time that the astral wind blades flew out, he also activated his Icebound Thousand Miles. There were too many demonic beasts, and it wasn’t a good thing for them to get too close.

Jiang Yi’s estimation was on point. It would definitely be troublesome if these demonic beasts came too close. Even before he managed to release his Icebound Thousand Miles, the spiders had already started spewing streams of silver threads. Furthermore, these threads did not get cut by Jiang Yi’s Astral Winds Divine Shield but had actually stuck on it. Following that, countless spiders flew towards him and as they came near to his Astral Winds Divine Shield, they exploded.

Bang, bang, bang!

It was as if countless explosives detonated near him at the same time. The spatial zone around Jiang Yi was being disrupted incessantly and was being torn apart. Jiang Yi’s Astral Winds Divine Shield’s power was swiftly being diminished. It only took a blink of an eye, and hundreds of spiders had exploded around the Astral Winds Divine Shield, reducing its energy by half.

“Horrifying! Icebound Thousand Miles!”

Jiang Yi shouted deep in his heart as the Icebound Thousand Miles finally appeared. A wave of cold current emanated from his body towards all directions. The surroundings were frozen, and even Yin Ruobing had become an ice statue. Fortunately, Yin Ruobing wore a Bejeweled Armor ancient artifact; her body and soul spirit were not greatly affected.

Tsk! Tsk!

Jiang Yi’s astral wind blades danced and ignored the avians in the sky, focusing on the hordes of spiders below. These big-bellied spiders were too terrifying. If they had continued with their attacks, Jiang Yi’s body would have been exploded into pieces.

“Ruobing, retreat a little more. Being frozen by my Icebound Thousand Miles is not nice.” Jiang Yi turned and growled. However, Yin Ruobing smiled lightly and said, “It’s okay. You don’t have to bother about me. I am not so fragile.”

Jiang Yi nodded and did not waste his breath anymore. While he cleansed the demonic beasts near him, he continued to release the Icebound Thousand Miles and hurriedly dashed deep into the mountain.

Yin Ruobing’s Bejeweled Armor flashed, and the ice encapsulating her broke. She hurriedly followed behind Jiang Yi. However, there were still signs of pain in her eyes. The cold current just now was too scary; the feeling of being frozen was also very uncomfortable.

While she tried to keep her distance, she also didn’t dare to stay too far behind. This mountain was too terrifying; if those spiders were to explode on her, how many explosions could her Bejeweled Armor withstand?

Jiang Yi was furiously dashing ahead, drawing the attention of all the demonic beasts. Yin Ruobing was safe following behind Jiang Yi. She was only uncomfortable as Jiang Yi had no choice but to release the Icebound Thousand Miles to kill the demonic beasts.

A span of ten minutes felt so long to Yin Ruobing; it felt like a few years. She had been frozen a few dozen times. She knew now why Jiang Yi had not used this previously to kill the demonic beasts; the feeling of being frozen was unbearable.

An immensely strong aura appeared in front. The Demon Sovereign of this mountain had finally appeared. Yin Ruobing looked to the distance and felt disgusted and shaken at the same time.

It was a huge and ugly spider.

It was as tall as two hundred feet and was like a small mountain. It had twelve eyes, and its mouth was full of a black-green substance. Legs that were tens of feet long were covered in hair. Its stomach was also very large while its mouth kept spewing out small spiders. The spiders that had appeared from the ground were actually from its mouth.

Jiang Yi’s gaze was as cold as iron, and he became exceptionally serious. This spider’s children were already so dangerous; if this Demon Sovereign exploded, could he resist it?

“Ruobing, retreat five kilometers and protect yourself!”

Jiang Yi swiftly reacted as he shouted in his sharpest voice. There was no room for debate. Although Yin Ruobing wanted to stay, she did not dare to go against Jiang Yi. When this man was gentle, he could be changed; when he was dead serious, there was no room to question him.
