Jiang Yi’s words had caused all the Heaven Hidden Sect’s disciples to have mocking expressions. It was obvious that this group of people had never heard of Jiang Yi, and he only had the appearance and strength of a fourth-stage Heaven Monarch. He actually said that he wanted to pay his respects to the Heaven Hidden Sect’s Matriarch? Was this person not a fool?

The old woman with gray hair was the Heaven Hidden Sect’s commander in charge of guarding this teleportation array. Her eyes turned cold, and she said, “What madman are you from to stir up trouble in this place? Do you think anyone can simply meet with our Matriarch? Hurry up and leave, or you shall face the consequences.”

Finishing her warning, the old woman’s hand lit up with red light. She circulated her essence force and was ready to attack at any moment. The rest of the Heaven Hidden Sect’s disciples had also fanned out to surround Jiang Yi. Weapons and treasures appeared in their hands, and with an order from the old woman, they would immediately kill Jiang Yi.

“...”

Jiang Yi rubbed his nose and was a little awkward. He had introduced himself, thinking that these people would recognize him and allow him to enter the Heaven Hidden Sect. Jiang Yi didn’t expect that no one had even heard of his name.

He stood in the air and laughed bitterly in his heart, but he didn’t reveal any emotion on his face. He pondered for a moment and spoke, “I am the Buddha Thearch’s envoy. Is this how your Heaven Hidden Sect treat your guests? Quickly go report to your Matriarch and say that the Buddha Thearch’s envoy, Jiang Yi is seeking a meeting. She will surely meet with me! If there is any delay, I don’t think you can bear the responsibility.”

“En?”

The gray-haired old woman’s face had turned shivered while the rest of the Heaven Hidden Sect’s disciples had solemn expressions. They might not have ever left the snow region, but they have heard of the names of the East Imperial Nine Thearchs. Those nine individuals were the pinnacle existence of the continent. Who wouldn’t know them? If Jiang Yi was truly an envoy under the Buddha Thearch, the old woman really wouldn’t be able to make a decision.

However, the old woman didn’t get frightened by Jiang Yi. She took a closer look at Jiang Yi and asked, “Are you the Buddha Thearch’s envoy just because you said so? Do you have any evidence?”

Jiang Yi’s appearance cultivation was way too low, and anyone would be suspicious. Even if the Buddha Thearch’s envoy wasn’t a Demigod, he would at least be a Four or Five-Star expert, right? Sending a fourth-stage Heaven Monarch would just be a joke.

“Hmph!”

Jiang Yi could see the old woman’s intention, and he silently released the astral winds, controlled them, and shot them at a faraway mountain. With a wave of his hand, that large mountain suddenly collapsed as the waist of the mountain had been silently severed by the astral wind blades.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The tall mountain slid down and shattered into giant boulders. The old woman and others had a change in expressions again. Jiang Yi then spoke coldly, “Enough talk. Hurry up and go report. Any more delays, and you will have to bear the consequences.”

“Then please wait for a moment. I will get someone to seek advice from the eldress.”

The old woman’s tonality had gotten a lot better. Jiang Yi’s move had proven his strength, and an expert should be given necessary respect. She beckoned her hand and ordered one of the ladies to enter the mountain peak’s teleportation array.

Jiang Yi placed his hands behind his back and had an emotionless expression while he waited silently. He had reverted to his original appearance and looked very young and dashing. His red hair gave him a wicked and charming presence, and right now, he had the appearance of a mighty expert. His bearing had attracted a lot of curiosity from the Heaven Hidden Sect’s disciples.

The Heaven Hidden Sect’s disciples were all females. The sect rules stated that they were not allowed for marriage, and they were destined to age in solitary within the sect. However, which young woman didn’t yearn for love? They might be restricted by the sect rules and didn’t dare to speak too much with other men and even viewed them with animosity. Then again, Jiang Yi looked handsome and had an extraordinary bearing which instinctive attracted them.

Jiang Yi might look composed, but his heart was apprehensive. Would the Heaven Hidden Sect’s eldress and Matriarch allow him to enter? After he entered, how was he going to face the influential figures of the Heaven Hidden Sect? Would he be able to find Su Ruoxue? Even if he did, how was he going to bring her away? Was he going to die in the Heaven Hidden Sect?

There were many things that Jiang Yi didn’t know, but he had no other choice. If he couldn’t bring Su Ruoxue away, he would rather die!

As time ticked by, Jiang Yi’s heart grew even more restless. He had waited for one hour, and the teleportation array finally shined with radiance. That disciple that had teleported in earlier had returned with a gorgeous middle-aged lady.

The gorgeous lady was wearing a long red dress, and her age couldn’t be discerned from her looks. Just based on her looks, she looked just like 20 years old; but when Jiang Yi took a glance at her, he felt that she was at least forty or fifty years old. This woman was very beautiful and also had a noble and elegant bearing. Especially her phoenix eyes which was shimmering with cold light, like a high and mighty empress.

This woman’s strength should also be rather formidable. She might not be at the Demigod Realm, but Jiang Yi guessed that she should at least be a Five-Star expert!

“Greetings to Fifth Eldress!”

When the red-dressed woman appeared, everyone and including that old woman had bowed with respect. That Fifth Eldress didn’t even look at them and waved her hand indifferently. She looked at Jiang Yi from afar and didn’t say anything.

When Jiang Yi looked into the Fifth Eldress’ eyes which were deep like the sea, he knew that this person clearly knew of his identity. He quickly cupped his hands and greeted, “Jiang Yi pays his respects to Fifth Eldress.”

“The no.1 prodigy of the East Imperial Continent is truly extraordinary!”

As expected, the Fifth Eldress clearly knew about Jiang Yi’s information, and she nodded slightly and said, “Incinerating five of the North Thearch clan’s Demigods on Stupa Mountain. Jiang Yi, you are only 23 years old, right? You are probably the first person in 10,000 years to have such achievements at such an age.”

“Uh...”

The Fifth Eldress’ words had created an uproar among the Heaven Hidden Sect’s disciples. There were more than ten young ladies whose eyes flashed with astonishment. Even the old woman’s expression was much more respectable. Having the ability to kill five Demigods at such a young age. He was truly an extraordinary person that deserved respect.

Jiang Yi’s heart had grown fiery hot. This Fifth Eldress’ speech might be icy cold, but he had seen hope in her speech. He quickly cupped his hands and responded, “Fifth Eldress had overpraised me. Compared to the Heaven Hidden Sect which had been around for hundreds of thousands of years, which dominated the snow region and is renowned in the world, Nobody Jiang is still far inferior. This time, I especially came to pay a visit because of admiration for the Heaven Hidden Sect’s martial prowess!”

Jiang Yi’s attitude was very humble. The circumstances were stronger than people, and he must not have any conflict with the Heaven Hidden Sect. In order to bring Su Ruoxue back safely, let alone saying a few words, he wouldn’t hesitate even if he had to pay a price.

However...

The Fifth Eldress’ next statement had immediately made his burning heart to turn cold. She then spoke without any emotion, “Enough. Jiang Yi, less nonsense! Our Heaven Hidden Sect doesn’t want any male disciples and doesn’t like to have dealings with men. Go straight to the topic! Our sect doesn’t permit males to enter. If you have anything to say, you can say it here.”

Jiang Yi didn’t expect for the Fifth Eldress to turn hostile so quickly. He was stunned for a moment before he said, “Alright then, I will go straight to the point. I am here at your respectable sect to look for a person. She is called Su Ruoxue, and she is my wife. She is currently inside your Heaven Hidden Sect.”

“Your wife?”

The Fifth Eldress’ eyes flashed with cold light, and she flung her sleeve and replied, “Jiang Yi, you are mistaken. Your wife isn’t here, and there is no Su Ruoxue here. You can return.”

After the Fifth Eldress responded, she immediately walked towards the teleportation array; and Jiang Yi’s expression had turned cold. He quickly yelled out, “Wait, Fifth Eldress! My wife, Su Ruoxue, is really inside your Heaven Hidden Sect. Please check carefully. If you can return her to me, I am willing to pay any price.”

“If I said she isn’t here, it means she isn’t here!”

The Fifth Eldress ignored Jiang Yi with a cold face and yelled out, “Activate the teleportation array!”

Swish!

Jiang Yi was enraged, and astral winds were struck out in an endless stream. He shouted coldly, “Fifth Eldress. Don’t force me. When I—Jiang Yi—goes insane, even I am afraid of myself. I didn’t even hesitate to make the Nine Thearchs Clans my enemies for Ruoxue. Your Heaven Hidden Sect might be formidable, but if you don’t return Ruoxue to me, I swear to destroy your sect!”
