Fury Towards The Burning Heaven

Chapter 1491 - Kneel Down and Kowtow

Chapter 1491: Kneel Down and Kowtow

Jiang Yi had already expected that someone would come, looking for trouble. Putting Qiu Ren down was not akin to putting all the young masters down!

From the beginning, he made the worst decision that would ensure the Little Eagle King would come, knocking on the door. Yet, he did not expect someone as ferocious as the Little Eagle King, the first young master in the Demon-Buster Army.

After Qi Yue and Qi Xia reported news of this, both of them felt incredibly nervous. You Tianni’s reputation was too great. Just one mistake could blow the matter up completely. The two of them could even have to report this to Qi Qingchen. However, they saw Jiang Yi sit peacefully, without any sign of worry or panic; and they felt a glimmer of hope. Could Jiang Yi settle this problem?

“Someone, come!”

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yi shouted, causing a female officer outside to rush in. Jiang Yi ordered, “Gather everyone from the Fire Phoenix Army and wait for my orders. If I give the order and they don’t move, they will be dealt with according to military law.”

“...”

Qi Yue and Qi Xia were speechless. Both of them had overestimated Jiang Yi. This was a rash youth through and through. He did not care who the other party was, and yet he was prepared to go hard on him. Where were they? They were in the Demon-Buster Army’s camp. This was their territory.

“Lord Inspector-General!”

Qi Yue pondered for a moment and decided to warn Jiang Yi in advance. Yet, he waved his hand aggressively and said, “You don’t have to tell me anything. I know what I’m doing. Both of you, wait for my orders. If you dare to go against them, you will also be dealt with according to military law.”

Qi Yue and Qi Xia did not dare to spout any more nonsense. Instead, they steadied their breathing and began to wait, observing the Poison Spirit’s expressionless face as he stood behind Jiang Yi. To the Poison Spirit, Jiang Yi was his master. Even if Jiang Yi asked him to kill Heavenly King You, he would do so without batting an eyelid.

Shh-shh-shh!

They heard footsteps outside. You Tianni had brought people with him. A crazed aura traveled inwards, towards them. Ten distinct divine senses scanned inside, without any hesitation or fear. The pressure in the commander’s camp suddenly increased, causing even the air to be still.

You Tianni and company’s presence was too formidable. There were at least five among them who were Titled Battle Gods. Two of the female soldiers guarding the door outside did not even dare to stop them. They watched as tens of people invaded the camp.

The campsite was not considered big at all. Once all of them entered, they took up half of the place, increasing the pressure. Qi Yue and Qi Xia were only Demon-Killing Battle Gods. They were crushed so badly that they could hardly even breathe. You Tianni especially, who was leading the group, felt like a highly venomous snake. His eyes alone could cause the two of them to tremble uncontrollably.

Jiang Yi was also being suppressed so badly that he could hardly breathe. However, he was careful to show no change in expression whatsoever. He did not even lift his head. Instead, he kept his head bowed and continued reading the documents in his hands. The Poison Spirit acted in the same way. He had fresh blood in his hands; aura and presence like this did not faze him in the least.

Once You Tianni entered, he scanned the surroundings. Without standing on ceremony, he sat at the first seat on the left and reached out a hand that looked even more beautiful than many women’s. He touched the tattoo on his bald head and then gave Jiang Yi a sideways glance. “Lord Inspector-General, you look very busy.”

Jiang Yi looked up slightly and looked callously at You Tianni. Calmly, he asked, “Who said you could sit down?”

“...”

Everyone’s expression changed. They were speechless. The people whom You Tianni brought with him spent the entire journey guessing how Jiang Yi would react to their visit. They did not expect that this would be the first thing Jiang Yi said. What’s more, his tone sounded like he was a high and mighty commander, talking to a lowly foot soldier. He was speaking and acting as if he was way above You Tianni.

“I sat down in my own accord!”

You Tianni maintained a strong presence. Not only did he not get angry, but he even smiled slightly. He looked at Jiang Yi calmly and said, “I forgot to introduce myself. I am You Tianni, the Internal Patrol Envoy. If we want to talk about rank, I am... half a rank above you!”

An individual with ill intentions!

Qi Yue and Qi Xia immediately felt like something was wrong. You Tianni was very smart. He did not charge at Jiang Yi head-on. Instead, he came with an ulterior motive. The moment he came, he pressed Jiang Yi under his thumb. He said that he was half a rank above Jiang Yi, intending for the latter to bow down to him.

“Hahaha!”

Jiang Yi laughed, standing up to walk down the commander’s platform. His smile spread across his face as he said, “So it is Lord You. I apologize for my behavior. Lord You, you should have introduced yourself earlier. I would have gone out to receive you.”

Many people began to look at Jiang Yi mockingly. The latter’s face changed as quickly as the pages of a book. Did he finally realize that this bone was too big for him to chew? Was that why he was acting so humble, ready to surrender?

The corner of You Tianni’s mouth twisted up in a smile as he waved his hand. “Lord Jiang, you’re too polite. I have heard of your name a long time ago. That is why I decided to pay you a special visit today.”

“Lord You, you’re flattering me!”

Jiang Yi waved his hand continuously, turning to scan the tens of people in the commander’s camp at the same time. His tone suddenly became intense. “If you’re just here to visit me, why have you brought so many people with you? Lord You, are you here to build connections or destroy my Fire Phoenix Army? Lord You might be higher than me in terms of rank, but this is the commander’s camp of my Fire Phoenix Army. You charged in here without reporting to me at all. This is against military law, isn’t it? Or... were you intending to assassinate my General?”

“His face has changed again?”

Before the mocking smile could fully form on the crowd’s faces, their expressions changed again. Only You Tianni’s expression remained the same. He continued smiling as he waved his hand again. “Lord Jiang, you don’t have to talk me up so much I know more than you do about the Demon-Buster Army’s rules. Let’s talk in the open: the Fire Phoenix Army does not have an Internal Patrol Envoy, does it? I am prepared to transfer over. Give me an answer: would you make this convenient for me?”

Jiang Yi smiled again. This expression was really changing quickly. Then, he said something that shocked everyone. “So what if I do? So what if I don’t?”

You Tianni stood up and said coolly, “If you do, you and I will be alright as will everyone else. If you don’t, you and I will not be alright as will everyone else!”

“Oh?”

Jiang Yi turned around and walked back towards the commander’s platform, sitting back down. He looked down at his documents once again and said without lifting his head, “Send our guest out!”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Immediately, everyone’s expressions changed again. Jiang Yi did not have any regard for You Tianni whatsoever. He was prepared to go head to head with him.

They had to admit that You Tianni’s was a very shrewd and sophisticated person. Up till now, his expression remained the same. He only reached out his hand to touch his tattoo again, glaring at Jiang Yi with his narrow, long eyes, which resembled that of a venomous snake. Grinning, he said, “I heard that Lord Jiang came in first in the Wen Fight. You were even titled Battle God Jiang Yi? Why not we exchange a move or two? We can battle right now. If you can withstand a single blow of mine, I will retreat three hundred meters every time I see you in the future, and vice versa. How’s that?”

Here it was!

Qi Yue and Qi Xia’s hearts were thudding. You Tianni was completely angered now and requested for a public battle. He even made a deal on a single move. It was obvious that he was trying to shame Jiang Yi. No matter whether Jiang Yi won or lost, his reputation would still suffer. If he did not even accept the challenge, word would go out that he was a joke. His reputation in the Fire Phoenix Army would be destroyed forever.

He was an Inspector-General, the second-in-command in the Fire Phoenix Army.

If people did not respect him, why would they submit to him? Who would take his orders? What use would there be in his position then?

“Duel?”

Jiang Yi lifted his head, mockingly looking at You Tianni. In a cool tone, he said, “I have so many things to do as it is. I don’t have time to play little children’s games with you. If you insist on playing, you can play with my soul slave. If you can take three blows from him, you will win. If we meet in the future, I will kneel down and kowtow to you!”

“Wow!”

Everyone was astonished. You Tianni was a Titled Battle God. Jiang Yi was sending a random soul slave to battle with him? What’s more, he was making a deal on three blows. The bet was a huge one; Jiang Yi was prepared to kneel down and kowtow?

His counter-move was too aggressive. If You Tianni did not accept the battle, his reputation would be in shambles. After all, Jiang Yi’s soul slave was representative of him. If he could not even take three blows from a soul slave, how would he win a battle with the master?

You Tianni turned to scan the Poison Spirit from head to toe and then burst into laughter. “Alright! Someone, apply for a battle!”

The Poison Spirit smiled.
