Chapter 2531: Chapter 2531: Controlling the Heavenly Domain Flying Boat
Elder Ge Yi of Tianji Trading House intended to avert responsibility and subtly submit to Jing Yan. But clearly, Jing Yan was too uninterested to deal with his pretense. This Ge Yi and the formidable Tianji Trading House behind him are no good.
At this moment, Jing Yan’s anger toward Tianji Trading House surpassed that toward the Eight Gods Pill Sect. The Eight Gods Pill Sect had reasons rooted in past grievances for causing trouble in Hongmeng City—a justifiable act of enemies seeking vendetta. Yet, Tianji Trading House had no excuse to behave as it did. Previously, there was no animosity between Hongmeng City and Tianji Trading House; in fact, Jing Yan had granted Elder Ge Yi a High Level VIP status, aiming to foster good relations. However, Tianji Trading House’s actions left Jing Yan disheartened.
With things having escalated to this point, how could Jing Yan possibly let Ge Yi off?
If Jing Yan hadn’t used his unmatched strength to defeat Hou Yang Immortal Venerable, by today’s end, Jing Yan would be a captive, and Hongmeng City would fall under the control of the Eight Gods Pill Sect and Tianji Trading House.
"No!" Elder Ge Yi sensed the breath of death approaching; his expression turned horrified, emitting a hoarse roar.
"City Lord Jing Yan, you can’t kill me! Stop, stop!" Elder Ge Yi, casting aside his dignity, cried out for Jing Yan to halt.
Jing Yan’s power filled him with despair, even making it difficult to conjure thoughts of resistance. Even someone as strong as Hou Yang Immortal Venerable nearly met his end at the hands of City Lord Jing Yan; what did Ge Yi have to withstand City Lord Jing Yan’s assault?
On the other hand, Kang Li from the Eight Gods Pill Sect, after Hou Yang Immortal Venerable fled, remained silent. Upon seeing Jing Yan’s Sword Light aimed at him, he attempted to resist, despite knowing he had no chance. Yet, he tried. With Hou Yang Immortal Venerable fled, Elder Kang Li knew he was doomed; City Lord Jing Yan wouldn’t spare him, an elder of the Eight Gods Pill Sect.
"Puff! Puff!"
After two muffled thuds, Kang Li and Ge Yi, these two cultivators of Immortal Venerable Peak Realm renowned within the Heavenly Domain, were crushed to dust by overwhelming Power.
"Kill them all!" Jing Yan waved his hand.
With Hou Yang Immortal Venerable fled, and Ge Yi and Kang Li slain by Jing Yan, a squad of Tianji Trading House Guards remained.
On City Lord Jing Yan’s order, Grand Steward Bai Han, along with Hongmeng City Guard, surrounded the Tianji Trading House Guards. A slaughter ensued. The captain level within the Tianji Trading House Guards was also of Immortal Venerable Realm but couldn’t hold on for long.
Before long, the Tianji Trading House Guards were massacred.
"City Lord!"
At this moment, the Array Master team of Hongmeng City, led by Director Niu Bo, emerged from the city to meet Jing Yan.
"Enter that Heavenly Domain Flying Boat and locate the central hub for control. From now on, this Heavenly Domain Flying Boat belongs to Hongmeng City," Jing Yan instructed Director Niu Bo.
"Yes!" Director Niu Bo bowed in response and, followed by a group of Array Masters, flew toward the Heavenly Domain Flying Boat.
Currently, the Heavenly Domain Flying Boat lacked cultivator control and thus, possessed minimal defense capabilities. For Director Niu Bo and others to seize control of the Flying Boat wasn’t difficult.
A Heavenly Domain Flying Boat had astonishing value. Its construction required many potent formations and the materials for the Flying Boat itself were resilient and expensive. Otherwise, it wouldn’t endure flights within Chaotic Primordial Space. Common mineral materials wouldn’t last in Chaotic Primordial Space; they would erode quickly under its special energy.
After arranging these matters, Jing Yan and Wuxia returned to the city. What occurred outside the city didn’t require Jing Yan’s personal intervention.
Until City Lord Jing Yan returned to Hongmeng City, the countless onlookers were seemingly revived. Today’s battle between City Lord Jing Yan and Hou Yang Immortal Venerable would be one they’d never forget.
Before the battle, no one anticipated City Lord Jing Yan defeating Hou Yang Immortal Venerable. Hou Yang Immortal Venerable, ranked third on the Immortal Venerable Golden Tablet, nearly faced death at City Lord Jing Yan’s hands. The climactic scene of the battle was witnessed by all; Hou Yang Immortal Venerable barely escaped using a Special Treasure. This Special Treasure had to be exceptionally valuable, possibly crafted by an Immortal Emperor. For, in Chaos Origin Heavenly Domain, Immortal Venerables couldn’t perform Instantaneous Movement. An object’s energy instantly transporting a powerful cultivator away exceeded the capability of regular Immortal Venerable Level Magical Treasures.
"City Lord Jing Yan’s prowess might be enough to rank in the top three of the Tianyin Immortal Venerable List?" someone speculated.
The Tianyin Building Immortal Venerable List isn’t publicly revealed. Ordinary cultivators have difficulty knowing specifics about the Immortal Venerable List. However, despite the lack of detailed rankings, many cultivators acknowledge its existence.
Some cultivators knew that Hou Yang Immortal Venerable ranked among the top three on the Immortal Venerable List. Now, with City Lord Jing Yan defeating Hou Yang Immortal Venerable, it indicated Jing Yan Layer Master’s strength surpassed Hou Yang Immortal Venerable. With such power, he could firmly land in the top three, perhaps even first place.
Yet, relations between Hongmeng City and Tianyin Building were poor, possibly preventing Tianyin Building from listing Jing Yan on the Immortal Venerable List.
"City Lord Jing Yan belongs to Thunder Domain."
"No wonder, when Yama Palace’s Red-Clothed Killing Star chased Luo Hao, a Thunder Domain member, City Lord Jing Yan personally killed four Red-Clothed Killing Stars."
"Yes, we initially thought City Lord Jing Yan targeted the Red-Clothed Killing Star for their actions in Hongmeng City. Now it seems that reason wasn’t so simple. Even if Red-Clothed Killing Star hadn’t acted within Hongmeng City, City Lord Jing Yan would help Thunder Domain Remnant."
"The issue is City Lord Jing Yan isn’t an original resident of Kunling Heaven; he hails from Faro Heaven. How... could he connect with Thunder Domain?"
"Who knows? At any rate, City Lord Jing Yan certainly has an unusual tie to Thunder Domain. Otherwise, how could he master the Thunder Origin Immortal Skill? Thunder Origin is a technique of Thunder Emperor. Reportedly, during Thunder Domain’s strength, only core members had the privilege to learn Thunder Origin."
"Could City Lord Jing Yan be a disciple of Thunder Emperor?"
"Highly possible! Though Thunder Emperor has been absent for a long time, even as Thunder Domain declined, he might have withheld involvement intentionally. Perhaps Thunder Emperor deliberately groomed a disciple like City Lord Jing Yan to reclaim Thunder Domain’s territories," a cultivator remarked with glinting eyes.
Following the battle between Jing Yan and Hou Yang Immortal Venerable, discourse about City Lord Jing Yan among Heavenly Domain cultivators was unlikely to settle anytime soon.
