Chapter 1696: Investigating His Entire Ancestry
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Earth Domain, White River City!
A light flashed continuously within one castle, alarming everyone in the Bai Clan. This Teleportation Formation had not lit up in a long time and even scared the elder that was guarding it; he thought he was mistaken and rubbed his eyes a few times. This Teleportation Formation was connected to the Chaos Sea.
After making sure that it was indeed lighting up, that elder hurriedly sent someone to inform White River King. Ordinarily, no one from the Chaos Sea would come to the Earth Domain; that could only mean that someone important from the Heaven Domain was coming.
White River King brought a group of Bai Clan elders and waited outside the Teleportation Formation. They waited for more than twenty hours when the Teleportation Formation flashed, and a figure appeared. This person’s aura made everyone shudder.
“This person… is Pseudo Thearch-Ranked?”
White River King’s lips trembled as he spoke. He immediately led his men as they all bowed and greeted, “Greetings to my Lord!”
The person that appeared did not wear battle armor but a black coat that enveloped his entire body. Even White River King could not see his face clearly. He stood in the Teleportation Formation for a while and then asked coldly, “You are White River King?”
White River King bowed once again and replied, “I do not dare to be called a King in front of you; my Lord, you can call me Bai He!”
“Ask them all to leave.”
That mysterious black-robed man waved as White River King hurriedly dismissed his clansmen. The black-robed man then spoke, “I am Dao Leng; have you heard of me?”
“Dao Leng?” White River King’s entire being shuddered as he genuflected and spoke with much emotion. “Cold Thearch, I apologize for not recognizing you. Please punish me as you see fit.”
If it was any other ordinary person, White River King would definitely not kneel. However, Dao Leng’s name was well-known, and he was from the Dao Clan, one of the Heaven Domain supreme family clans. Dao Leng was also ranked third in the Dao Clan.
This was not the most important factor. The crux was that one of the Bai Clan elders was currently serving as a General in the Azure Supreme Thearch Army while the Azure Supreme Thearch Army’s commander-in-chief was Dao Nù. That meant that the Bai Clan was a vassal of the Dao Clan. That was why White River King knelt.
“Rise!”
Dao Leng was very satisfied that White River King knew how to act. He said softly, “Find a quiet secret room. Also, my presence in the Earth Domain cannot be made known. If not… hmph!”
“I understand, I understand! Cold Thearch, please.”
White River King hurriedly brought Cold Thearch out into the backyard of the castle. All along the way, he sent out voice transmissions to ask everyone in the backyard to stay hidden and quiet and not to send out any divine senses.
Along the way, Dao Leng did not see anyone. They finally entered another castle’s secret room. Dao Leng nodded satisfactorily and said, “Bai He, you’re quite good at handling matters. Bai Mao had spoken to me about you before; you are indeed someone worth nurturing.”
“Cold Thearch, you flatter me.”
White River King’s heart welled up. That Dao Leng had come here directly was probably because he had first looked for Bai Mao. Dao Leng must have something important to attend to here. If White River King did a splendid job, the Bai Clan and Bai Mao would prosper from now on.
He personally poured a cup of his most premium tea for Dao Leng and then finally stood respectfully in front of him. White River King asked carefully, “Could I ask why Cold Thearch has come to the Lower Domain this time? If there is anything I can assist with, please instruct.”
“En…”
Cold Thearch didn’t drink the tea but used his fingers to drum the left armrest. He didn’t speak as he continued to drum as the sound made White River King’s heart palpitate. After five minutes, Cold Thearch finally asked, “What do you think of a person called Jiang Yi?”
“Jiang Yi?”
White River King was a little confused; he didn’t know what Cold Thearch meant. As the information from Chaos Sea had been sealed and the Teleportation Formations to the Heaven Domain had been closed, no one in the Earth Domain knew about what had happened to Jiang Yi after he headed to the Chaos Sea. Although Qi Qingchen and Poison Spirit had returned, the problem was neither had divulged any information regarding him.
White River King only knew that Jiang Yi had killed a Liang Clan young master and then entered the Demon-Killing Palace. After that, the Chaos Sea Teleportation Formation had been shut and had not been reactivated since then; White River King knew nothing about what had happened after.
His eyes shifted. As he didn’t know what Cold Thearch meant exactly, he could only equivocate. “This man is a talent; however, his temper is rather bad and had caused trouble in the Earth Domain. He had even killed Heavenly King You as well. Cold Thearch, you wish to recruit him?”
“My ass!”
Dao Leng couldn’t contain it anymore as he scolded. White River King immediately understood. Jiang Yi had probably done something bad and offended the Dao Clan. He hurriedly continued, “En, this man is unruly and not tamable; he kills people without batting an eyelid. In the Earth Domain, his reputation is very bad. Some men from my clan had also been killed by him. We indeed cannot recruit him.”
“Your clansmen had also been killed?” Dao Leng’s tone changed immediately as he asked curiously, “Elaborate in detail.”
“My eldest son had also been killed…”
Speaking about this, White River King’s eyes reddened as he narrated the entire story. After speaking for a full five minutes, Dao Leng was a little impatient. He immediately interrupted White River King and said, “Alright, Bai He, I have a mission for you. If you do a good job, you will be well rewarded!”
“I wouldn’t dare!”
White River King hurriedly bowed and said seriously, “To do something for Chief Leng, it is my honor. I do not dare to ask for a reward!”
“Investigate!”
Dao Leng coldly ordered. “Send someone to gather everything on Jiang Yi, including his entire ancestry and all his clansmen, kin, good friends… women. I want everything at whatever cost it takes.”
“Uh?”
White River King heard Dao Leng’s tone and a shiver went down his spine. What on earth had Jiang Yi done to incur Dao Leng’s wrath? Dao Leng had spoken through gritted teeth.
He thought for a moment as his brows furrowed. He asked, “Chief Leng, should this be done overboard or quietly?”
“Nonsense!”
Dao Leng rebuked and said, “Of course, it has to be done quietly. If not, why would I come down so secretly? No one can know about this.”
Azure Supreme Thearch had told Heavenly King Wei that this matter was at an end. In the blink of an eye, Dao Leng was already in the Lower Domain looking for information regarding Jiang Yi. If this matter was made known, wouldn’t that be giving no face to Azure Supreme Thearch? Azure Supreme Thearch had also instructed for this matter to be conducted in secret.
“A secret investigation…”
White River King was a little troubled. He hesitated and said, “Jiang Yi ascended from a small domain belonging to the Earth Emanations Domain’s jurisdiction. If we want to head there, we have to go via the Earth Emanations Domain. The Earth Emanations Sovereign is on good terms with Jiang Yi, however.”
“I do not want to hear all this!” Dao Leng waved his hand abruptly. He said, “I will only ask you one thing: can you get this done?”
“Yes!”
White River King gritted his teeth and said, “Give me some time, Chief Leng, I will definitely send someone secretly to the Mortal Domain and investigate Jiang Yi’s entire ancestry.”
“Alright!”
Dao Leng nodded satisfactorily. White River King’s eyes shifted and had a thought. He asked, “Chief Leng, two of Jiang Yi’s brothers seemed to have ascended as well. They are in the Earth Emanations Domain currently. Should I have them kidnapped quietly? En, when I send someone to the Lower Domain, should I capture some of his kin as well?”
“No way.”
Dao Leng grew angry and said coldly, “His wrongdoings are not his family’s. You are after all the ruler of a domain; how can you think of something so underhanded? What if this matter escalated or news of this got leaked? I am only asking you to investigate; do not do anything else recklessly. Remember, there should not be any noise. If anything goes wrong, you will be held fully responsible!”
“Understood. Rest assured, Chief Leng. Give me one month; I will definitely complete this task!”
White River King bowed and left as he started to make plans. He activated all the resources at his disposal and started to investigate Jiang Yi. At the same time, he arranged for men to head to the Mortal Domain. To head to the Stellarsky Domain, they could only either enter via the Earth Emanations City’s Teleportation Formation or force their way through. However, White River King had some traitors of the Phantom Race under his wing. To enter the Stellarsky Domain furtively was not a problem at all.
