Qian Wanguan and Zhan Wushuang looked at each other and smiled while Su Ruoxue was stunned. After all that had happened, it turned out that Jiang Yi was actually a royal highness, too? By the looks of it, Jiang Yi and Jiang Yiliu were brothers as well. It seemed like… the two brothers turned against each other because of her?

“Your Highness?”

The news was most shocking for Ji Tingyu, Jiang Henshui, Liu He, and Leng Qianqian. Although Ji Tingyu had guessed that Jiang Yi had some sort of association with the Jiang Clan, she never would have guessed that he was the son of Jiang Bieli. After reflecting upon Jiang Yi’s defying battle skills, Ji Tingyu’s expression darkened. She realized… she seemed to have made an extremely foolish decision.

Jiang Yiliu and Zhangsun Wuji quickly came to their senses, and both their faces turned pale. Jiang Bieli must have known about everything since he sent ten thousand Killer Divine Guards to fetch Jiang Yi.

But that was not the main point: the most important thing was Jiang Rentu’s attitude towards him.

The Divine Martial Kingdom had a legend: it was stated that Jiang Rentu was the shadow of Jiang Bieli and that he represented Jiang Bieli’s will. At that moment, it was obvious that Jiang Rentu was disregarding him even though he was the legitimate heir. Instead, he kneeled in front of Jiang Yi, the illegitimate son, in front of everyone. Jiang Yiliu knew best what it meant beneath that action.

The Liege Lord is so devoted to the slut, Yi Piaopiao?

Zhangsun Wuji’s malicious eyes flickered for a few times; a trace of enlightenment was found on his face. He murmured softly, “I should have guessed this earlier. After Yi Piaopiao left, the Liege Lord went into seclusion for a year. After he came out from his seclusion, he changed the original name of Western Garrison City to Jiang Yi City. Jiang Yi… isn’t that an amalgamation of Jiang Bieli and Yi Piaopiao?”

“Swish!”

Just when everyone was utterly shocked by what was being revealed, Jiang Rentu stood up abruptly. He circulated the essence forces on his body and shot forth like a majestic beast. A feverous light shone from within his tiger-like eyes, and he got his vision locked on Jiang Yiliu before announcing loudly, “On Liege Lord’s order to usher Prince Yiliu back to be disciplined by Madam. His Royal Highness Yiliu… please pardon me!”

Jiang Yiliu was not far away from the ground. Jiang Rentu was so powerful that he was able to get onto the war chariot within a leap. The two of them had yet to react before Jiang Rentu’s leg shot forward and swept Jiang Yiliu’s feet like a metal chain.

“Crack!”

A crisp sound of bone breaking could be heard! Jiang Yiliu’s legs were broken upon the cracking sound. A blood-curdling scream came from inside the war chariot.

“Swish!”

There was not a shred of change in Jiang Rentu’s expression. He lifted Jiang Yiliu and threw him down before a Killer Divine Guards’ Deputy General caught him and brought him away. Jiang Rentu then turned to Zhangsun Wuji, who had turned blue in the face, and said, “Young Master Wuji, I will not touch you since you belong to the Zhangsun Clan. When you have time, you should go to Jiang Yi City and seek pardon from the Liege Lord. You know how his temper is like!”

After saying that, Jiang Rentu waved lightly and sent Zhangsun Wuji flying out. He took a leap and hit on the ancient divine war chariot using one hand. The war chariot immediately dimmed and shot towards the Killer Divine Guards. A few Killer Divine Guards leaped forward and carried the ancient divine war chariot away.

“Roar!”

Zhangsun Wuji did not dare to touch the ground as Jiang Yi, the killing asteroid, would finish him off immediately. He quickly summoned the Blue Dragon and leaped onto it, shooting towards mid-air.

“Somebody, come and take down all the men brought by Prince Yiliu and Young Master Wuji. Escort them back to Jiang Yi City and wait for Liege Lord’s instructions. Anyone who dares to revolt shall be killed without further ado.”

Jiang Rentu jumped onto the ground and commanded again without hesitation. A few hundred Killer Divine Guards darted towards Jiang Yi’s direction and easily took down the men from the Jiang Clan, the Zhangsun Clan, and the Iron Blood Guards who survived previously.

After completing those tasks, Jiang Rentu kneeled before Jiang Yi once again and said, “Your Highness, please follow your humble servant back to the city. Liege Lord would very much like to see you.”

“Huh…”

Everyone just came back to their senses. Although none of them dared to speak out loud, many of them could not help but let out a sigh. They were utterly shocked. Most of them came from major family clans; they were not that ignorant to not understand the purpose of Jiang Rentu’s actions.

He was helping Jiang Bieli… express goodwill to Jiang Yi!

Even if Jiang Bieli wanted to break the legs of Jiang Yiliu, couldn’t Jiang Rentu do that in a secluded place where there was no one? To punish him in front of everyone was like throwing his reputation out of the window. How could he continue to garner people’s respect as a royal highness in the future? How could he rule the powerful West Garrison Army with dignity in the future?

Not to forget about Zhangsun Wuji, Jiang Rentu asked Zhangsun Wuji to go and apologize to the Liege Lord. He disregarded the Zhangsun Clan and offended them by taking away their men. That action was obviously too overboard.

As the most capable Chief General of the Western Garrison Army, Jiang Rentu had gone through thick and thin with Jiang Bieli. How could such a prominent and well-known figure in the Divine Martial Kingdom like General Rentu be kneeling before Jiang Yi twice? Let alone Jiang Yiliu—even the father of Zhangsun Wuji, the most powerful Clan Head of Zhangsun Clan in the Divine Martial Kingdom, would never expect Jiang Rentu to kneel to him.

All in all, the actions taken represented that Jiang Rentu was trying to get into Jiang Yi’s good books. He was displaying some sense of affection and sincerity, or rather… he was helping Jiang Bieli to convey a type of attitude—helping the no.1 martial expert in the Divine Martial Kingdom to apologize subtly.

“HA-HA-HA—!”

Jiang Yi had been coldly observing everything in silence and suddenly started laughing hysterically. He was laughing without any manners; he laughed so much that tears were coming out from his eyes. There wasn’t an ounce of happiness in his laughter; instead, it was filled with an endless sense of desolation.

He finally looked at Jiang Rentu in the eyes after a long laugh. He said word by word, “My name is Jiang Yi. I am not some royal highness. General, you got the wrong person. Please get up. I cannot afford a kneel from you!”

“Eh…”

Everyone was in utter shock again. Qian Wanguan and Zhan Wushuang looked at each other and laughed bitterly. It seemed like both of them had predicted that Jiang Yi would have such a reaction. It could be seen from Jiang Yi’s refusal to expose his identity. Even though there were multiple times that Jiang Yiliu and Zhangsun Wuji tried to assassinate him—causing him to nearly die, he was not interested to reclaim his pristine status as the royal highness.

Jiang Rentu got up, but the Killer Divine Guards behind him didn’t. His inflexible face shook a little as he looked at Jiang Yi’s slightly immature face. He let out a light sigh, and his lips suddenly moved. He used a mystical way to channel a secret message: “Your Highness, you do not understand what happened that year. It isn’t as simple as you think. If you like to know of the truth, come back with me; and the Liege Lord will give you a satisfactory explanation!”

The edge of Jiang Yi’s mouth revealed a subtle teasing smile, “This General, please stop talking. I, Jiang Yi, have no parents in the past, I do not have any parents now either. In the future… I will have no parents, too! Please return. I am doing fine by myself!”

There was silence in the entire area. Everyone was looking at Jiang Yi’s frail body. They could feel boundless desolation and loneliness from him. At this moment, it felt as though Jiang Yi had been forsaken by the world.

He might be laughing lightly, but it gave off an oddly cold feeling instead. Like a plum blossom that was blooming in the winter snow, living in a chilling solitary!

Su Ruoxue’s eyes let out this smear of a grudge. She subconsciously took two steps and reached out her hand to grasp onto Jiang Yi’s hand tightly. There was no special meaning behind this action; she merely wanted to offer some warmth to this pitiful young man.

“Swish!”

Jiang Rentu’s body suddenly burst forward and turned into an afterimage. One of his hands extended towards Jiang Yi with lightning speed. It was apparent that Jiang Rentu was prepared to forcefully bring Jiang Yi back to Jiang Yi City.

But when Jiang Rentu was about thirty feet away from Jiang Yi and about to knock Jiang Yi out, his body suddenly paused. A pearl suddenly appeared in the hand of Jiang Yi. It was a pearl that was radiating with red light, and this pearl made him instinctively felt danger.

Jiang Yi’s expression turned grave; his eyes were glistening while he glared at Jiang Rentu. His killing aura shook as he burst out shouting, “Take your soldiers and begone! If you dare to have any weird thoughts, this Young Master will make all of you stay!”
