319 Queen (1/2)
The experts standing beside Su Heng all hesitated and backed out. Jiang Yi flew over, and he lifted Su Heng with his other hand after keeping the Fire Dragon Sword. He then flew rapidly towards the royal palace with any restraints and left a single statement, ”All of you, withdraw! The Great Xia Kingdom has only left such a puny army, and you actually want an internal discord? Aren't you ashamed if this gets out? If anyone dares to behave recklessly, I will kill their entire family!”
Jiang Yi was carrying a duke in each of his hand while he returned to the royal palace. He threw them outside the Drifting Snow Palace and asked several soldiers to tie them up and even muffled their mouths. He then walked into Su Ruoxue's room with large strides.
Su Ruoxue was lying down the bed with eyes of concern and grief while Jiang Xiaonu was sitting by her side and consoling her softly. The little fox was lying on the table with eyes that were half-closed.
”Young Master!”
Jiang Xiaonu heard the commotion on the outside and was instantly delighted when she saw Jiang Yi walking in. Su Ruoxue's eyes also lit up slightly as she stared at Jiang Yi without saying anything, but her eyes were inquiring silently.
”I have seized the both of them, and they are just outside. Ruoxue, what do you want to do?” Jiang Yi patted on Xiaonu's head while he turned to spoke softly with Su Ruoxue, ”Do you want to interrogate them?”
Su Ruoxue shook her head and replied, ”Put them under house arrest first. Jiang Yi, contain the situation in the city first and wait for my body to recover before we do anything else.”
”Don't worry, with me around, no one will dare to act recklessly!” Jiang Yi nodded and smiled. ”Ruoxue, don't think too much and take care of your body for the sake of the citizens in Summer Rain City. Understand?”
”Yes…”
Su Ruoxue closed her eyes and quickly went into a deep sleep. Jiang Yi gestured, asking for Jiang Xiaonu and the little fox to come out with him. He then looked at the little fox and said, ”Xiao Fei, are you bored here? Why not go back to the mountains first?”
”Ji-Ji!”
The little fox shook its petite head and sent a message: ”Xiao Fei doesn't want to go back to the mountains. It is so much fun to stay in this place, mainly because of the nice food. Those grilled meat are delicious! Xiao Fei likes them a lot!”
”Ke-Ke!”
Jiang Yi rubbed the little fox's head with pampering love and spoke to Jiang Xiaonu, ”Then the two of you will continue staying here. After Ruoxue recovers, I will bring both of you back to Mt. Spirit Beast College before going back to Fairy Peak.”
After Jiang Xiaonu and the little fox went off, Jiang Yi didn't enter Su Ruoxue's room. Instead, he sat in the grand hall and began to make some serious considerations about the future.
Three years!
During the huge battle outside of Summer Rain City, he managed to keep his life because the Demon Empress forcefully stepped in, but the six influential forces obviously loathed him now. After the three-year promise, the martial experts from the six influential forces might not let him live. At least… the Divine Martial Kingdom's Old Eunuch Lin wouldn't let him go!
Before the Demon Empress left, she sent a message saying that she would leave Stellarsky Continent after three years; and he would lose a formidable backer. Since Shui Youlan, Zhuge Qingyun, and Abbot Yanshe gave their word, they naturally must not go back on it. Three years later, no one else would protect him; and he would have to face the pursuit from plenty of Vajra Realm martial experts.
He had to cultivate so much that he must have the strength to protect himself in three years. He could also leave the continent to find a secluded island and live there for his life—never return to the continent.
If he was by himself, it didn't matter where he had to go. It would be most ideal if he could just find an island that was far away from the continent, living a carefree life without any worries. After experiencing all these incidents, he hated the days of killing and fighting and desired for days of peace and stability.
The question was… would Su Ruoxue bear to leave?Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
If Su Ruoxue didn't wish to forsake her motherland, then Jiang Yi had to stay and desperately cultivate, striving for strength where he could protect himself within three years.
If he wanted to protect himself, his strength must at least be Vajra Realm; and it had to be similar to the fifth stage of the Vajra Realm. Three years was too short a time, and Jiang Yi didn't even have the confidence to attain the peak stage of the Soul Travel Realm—let alone the fifth stage of the Vajra Realm!
