Chapter 1609: Dao Feng

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the center of the Random Star Islands—on a huge island called Random Star Island, there was a huge castle as big as Earth Emanations City. This was the main city of the Random Star Islands, the Random Star City. It was also one of the Chaos Sea four great clans’ An Clan’s home.

At this time, hordes of formidable martial artists were gathered in Random Star City; the number of Demon-Killing Battle God-equivalent formidable martial artists at least numbered hundreds of thousands. Titled Battle God formidable martial artists could also be seen everywhere while King-Ranked formidable martial artists were also there in force.

The Demon-Killing Palace was about to appear; it was going to appear within the Random Star Islands.

Tens of young masters and young mistresses from great family clans in the Heaven Domain had come; each of them had at least a thousand guards as escorts. The Chaos Sea four great clans and the Heaven Domain great family clans had inextricable ties; since their masters’ young masters and young mistresses had come, how could they not be well-protected? Hence, the Chaos Sea four great clans had sent many formidable martial artists to protect these young masters and young mistresses, and so the Random Star City had become so happening.

Inside one of the castles within this city, these young masters and young mistresses gathered. The men were refined and elegant, wearing fine clothing, while the women were beautiful and had very appealing airs.

These were young masters and young mistresses from the supreme family clans; it was hard for them to be normal. They had grown up in such powerful clans from birth; all their experiences and things they have tasted were all different from normal. It was natural that their airs were unique. Indeed, as one ascended in rank, one’s bearing would become better as well.

More than thirty had gathered. However, it wasn’t very noisy inside. The men looked very calm as the women talked softly and gently; these were the airs of young masters and young mistresses from great family clans. Everyone’s expression was very composed as if they were discussing some trivial matters.

Among their conversations, one name was mentioned most frequently: Jiang Yi’s!

Young Mistress An had sent word back that the number-one genius of the Earth Domain had obtained a Demon-Killing Pearl and was heading here stealthily. Jiang Yi knew the Phantom Race’s Art of Concealment, and Young Mistress An had expressed that she could not stop him. She asked all the geniuses from the Heaven Domain gathered here to discuss and think of a way to stop Jiang Yi and steal his Demon-Killing Pearl.

Out of the twenty-seven Demon-Killing Pearls, these young masters and young mistresses had already gotten twenty-three of them; eight of them had also been recently obtained. Eight clans had immediately acted when these eight had been found and easily gotten hold of them.

All of them had reached here a month ago. Many young masters and young mistresses actually did not have Demon-Killing Pearls; they were just here to wait for someone to send Demon-Killing Pearls their way.

In their hearts, Jiang Yi was one such person. The number-one talent of the Earth Domain? This was nothing to them. Jiang Yi was not even King-Ranked yet; even if he was, he was still insignificant to them. Half the young masters and young mistresses seated here were already King-Ranked martial artists themselves.

Cough, cough!

One silver-haired youngster gently coughed. He had not spoken at all just now and had now coughed to attract attention. This youngster was from the Dao Clan, and his name was Feng. Although his level of attainment was not considered the highest among those present, his status and reputation were top-notch. The Dao Clan was very influential in the Heaven Domain, only lagging behind the four Supreme Thearchs’ clans.

Dao Feng’s eyes were quite narrow and long; they looked like phoenix eyes and were very pleasing to look at. When he smiled, his eyes squinted and added a comfortable presence to him. Furthermore, his lips were thin and made people feel like his character was rather indifferent.

His gaze swept everyone as he said, “What is there to discuss? I have heard of the Phantom Race’s Art of Concealment before; aren’t many scouts in the Heaven Domain’s armies from the Phantom Race? Since divine senses cannot be used here in the Chaos Sea, it would be hard to track and hunt them down. Since that is the case, then let’s not stop them and let them come here!”

“Let them come here?”

Many looked stunned. One of the young mistresses sitting in a higher position, however, lit up as she smiled slightly, nodded, and said, “Young Master Dao is indeed resourceful and crafty; you’re setting a trap for them.”

“Hahaha!”

Dao Feng raised his head and laughed out loud. He shook his head and said, “Young Mistress Gongyang is very kind. I’m sure many have already thought of this idea. I am rasher by nature and had hastily raised this suggestion.”

“Alright!”

Many young masters and young mistresses all chimed in their praise and assent. Due to the Chaos Sea’s unique circumstances, it was really difficult to block Jiang Yi. Since they couldn’t block him, they’d rather let him in.

Not only Jiang Yi, but they were going to let everyone else who had the Demon-Killing Pearls in as well. Regardless of who they were and what mystical abilities they possessed, they all had to head to the region where the Demon-Killing Palace was going to appear after all. All these young masters and young mistresses had to do was to set a trap in the vicinity and wait patiently for the remaining four persons with the Demon-Killing Pearls to appear.

“Someone, come! Send a message to Young Mistress An, tell her to deploy everyone back here and stop the chase and hunt.”

One of the young masters shouted his order. Dao Feng, however, raised his hand and said, “Wrong! Even though we want to let them in, that doesn’t mean we recall all our troops. If we do that, we might actually be alerting them prematurely. Let’s stick to the status quo. The An Clan’s men will continue the search while we will go and make the necessary arrangements.”

Young Mistress Gongyang nodded and said, “Young Master Dao is right. If Young Mistress An continues to search and track them down, the four will definitely try different ways and means to enter this place. If all the pursuing forces were withdrawn, the four might actually not dare to enter anymore.”

“Young Mistress Gongyang is right!”

“Young Mistress is the most intelligent while Young Master Dao Feng is the most brilliant; you two are indeed exceptional…”

“Let’s discuss how we should set our trap. We definitely have to surround the four of them; no one would be allowed into the Demon-Killing Palace!”

“Young Master Han, you don’t have a Demon-Killing Pearl, right? You can bring some men to lay the trap.”

“Young Master Gu, doesn’t your clan possess a God-Trapping Formation?”

“…”

The palace hall became very boisterous as all the young masters and young mistresses started to offer suggestions as to how to lay out their trap. They were determined to get the remaining four Demon-Killing Pearls.

Historically, it had always been like this. Every time the Demon-Killing Pearls appeared, the Heaven Domain great family clans and Chaos Sea four great clans would combine forces. Unless one was from a great family clan, no one else had the right to enter the Demon-Killing Palace.

Everyone here could afford not to get any treasure within the Demon-Killing Palace; however, they could not afford others to get even a single one. If they failed on the first try, they could try another time or another ten times. As long as no outsider obtained these treasures, it would ultimately still end up within their great family clans.

For these young masters and young mistresses, the Earth Domain number-one genius was no different from a village bumpkin to them. If the war situation wasn’t dire in the Heaven Domain and needed reinforcements continuously from the Earth Domain, these young masters and young mistresses probably wouldn’t even be bothered with who the Earth Domain formidable martial artists were.

After discussing for two hours, the plan was soon cast in stone!

Countless young masters and young mistresses rose and left; however, many remained and only sent their formidable martial artists to the vicinity of the Demon-Killing Palace to make arrangements.

Jiang Yi still needed some time before he could reach this place; it was still a while more before the Demon-Killing Palace appeared and was activated. This group of young masters and young mistresses would not waste their time waiting bitterly there. At least here, they could still enjoy life and relax; who was willing to head out just for a few mere nobodies?

“Alright, please proceed with the arrangements.”

Young Master Dao Feng saw that the discussions were about to conclude, and he rose while looking at a young mistress sitting opposite Young Mistress Gongyang. He said to her, “Young Mistress He, I heard that one of the islands to the east of the Random Star Islands is very beautiful; do I have the honor of asking you to accompany me there?”

That this Young Mistress He was sitting in the front meant that her position in the Heaven Domain was quite high. She had not spoken a single word after entering and had not participated in the discussions at all.

She had been sipping her tea indifferently, just as if sitting at ease in her own backyard. Hearing Dao Feng’s invitation, she smiled lightly, rose, and said, “Apologies, Young Master Dao Feng, I have recently reached a crucial stage of my cultivation. I will not be able to accompany you to sightsee. I will take my leave, everyone.”

Young Mistress He brought her men out; she didn’t seem to give Dao Feng any face at all. Dao Feng’s eyes squinted as his mouth became a thin line, just like a cold blade. It was terrifying.
