Chapter 1366: Xiaonu, Let’s Go!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
For Jiang Xiaonu, the concept of parents was a very unfamiliar one. Since young, she had thought of herself as an orphan and had never imagined that she still had parents. She was very innocent and straightforward: Jiang Yi was her only kin. Even Jiang Yunhai could only count as half a kin. Jiang Yunhai had been missing for so many years while she and Jiang Yi had been looking after each other growing up.
She also knew that she was actually from the Ink Feather Race, and she had been taken by Yi Piaopiao. She also was told that the Ink Feather Race and her parents could still be present somewhere. However, she still had not much hopes and expectations of her own parents. In fact, she despised them a little. She felt that no matter what—since they had abandoned her, she did not belong to them anymore; she only belonged to Jiang Yi and Jiang Yi alone!
Mu Hongcha and the other Ink Feather Race members were at a loss. They had thought that once they found Jiang Xiaonu, she would definitely be extremely happy and couldn’t wait to follow them back to see the Green Eagle King and the Eagle Empress. However, not only did she not want to go back, but she was still adamantly trying to protect the person that abducted her.
Mu Hongcha thought for a moment and said rather indignantly. “Young Mistress, you are still young; do not believe their lies. If it wasn’t for them, how could you have gone to the Lower Domain and gone through so much suffering and danger? If it wasn’t for them, how could it be that you were separated from the Eagle Empress and the Clan King and your people? If it wasn’t for them, how is it that you are only this strong now? Although this man had been relatively good to you—once the Clan King finds out about this, his life would definitely be taken. The Clan King’s temper is one of the worst…”
“Uh…”
Jiang Yi’s heart sank. The worst had come to pass. They had found the Ink Feather Race. However, not only were they not going to be of help, but it also seemed as if both he and his mother’s life were in danger as well. This race was too arrogant while Jiang Xiaonu’s father seemed to be the number-one strongman in the Earth Domain. He had a bad temper that no one could rein in.
Jiang Xiaonu also became rather anxious. However, she swiftly thought things through and said determinedly, “I do not care. If Young Master were to die, I would not live either! Whoever wishes to kill him has to kill me first. That goes the same for Young Master’s mother. If anyone dares to touch the two of them, be prepared to collect my corpse!”
Mu Hongcha and the others exchanged a glance; they were in a bind. This Young Mistress was as unreasonable as her father and was equally obstinate. Mu Hongcha did not dare to kill Jiang Yi at the moment. If Jiang Xiaonu really committed suicide, the Green Eagle King would definitely kill her in one swipe.
Mu Hongcha paused for a moment as her eyes shifted. She said, “Young Mistress, please come back with us first. I… promise that I will not kill this lad and will try to persuade the Clan King to ask him to let this matter rest. Hurry up and come with us. The Eagle Empress misses you very much. She silently cries over you regularly!”
“I am not returning!”
Jiang Xiaonu said very resolutely. “I am going nowhere. Wherever Young Master goes, I will follow!”
Mu Hongcha’s eyes shifted again as she turned and looked at one of her comrades. Jiang Xiaonu, however, had detected something and said, “You guys should stop thinking of ways to take me by force. As long as I am separated from Young Master, I will kill myself. You guys can’t keep me captive and tied up all the way, right?”
“…”
Mu Hongcha was lost for words. However, she thought about it and came to the conclusion that this was indeed how the Green Eagle King’s daughter was expected to behave. Her temper was identical to his, and she was very persistent in a willful manner as well. Once she had decided on something, no one was going to be able to change her mind; it was impossible.
“Could we bring this lad along?”
Mu Hongcha muttered to herself as she shook her head. She understood the Green Eagle King’s temperament very well. If he grew angry, he would kill Jiang Yi in an instant. At that moment, Jiang Xiaonu would kill herself; and this matter would blow up. She had said that she would try her best to persuade the Green Eagle King. However, no one knew whether the Green Eagle King would find trouble with Yi Piaopiao and Jiang Yi or not now.
Finally, she looked towards Jiang Yi. Jiang Xiaonu seemed to listen to this Lower Domain country bumpkin, right? What if she asked him to persuade Jiang Xiaonu?
After giving this some thought, she sent a voice transmission to Jiang Yi: “Your name is Jiang Yi, right? I will not hide this from you. Young Mistress’s father is the number one in the Earth Domain, the Green Eagle King. Even if it was the Heaven Domain, the Green Eagle King is also a significant character. The Ink Feather Race is the number one in terms of strength in the Earth Domain as well.
“Young Mistress’ blood is that of the royal bloodline of our race. After she returns home and undergoes baptism in the heaven pool, her strength would increase exponentially. She is a high and mighty princess and the most respected and valuable one in the entire Earth Domain. You are… nothing, on the other hand. Hence, don’t even think about being her young master; you aren’t even fit to be her friend! Do you understand?”
“Keke!”
Jiang Yi smiled faintly as a mocking expression appeared on his face. Mu Hongcha’s words were very hurtful. Her meaning was clear: Jiang Xiaonu was a fairy from the Nine Heavens while he was just a bumpkin from the Lower Domain. They were way too far apart in terms of status. He did not even have the right to hold her shoes.
Jiang Yi did not reply; he couldn’t use voice transmissions even if he wanted to. Mu Hongcha’s words continued to reverberate in his soul spirit: “The Clan King and the Eagle Empress had gone out to take in the sights back then. Along the way, they had encountered a powerful Netherworld King. The Clan King and the Netherworld King fought and both fell into the Limitless Demon Region. The Eagle Empress was heavily wounded and was forced into early labor. As there were Netherworld Generals in pursuit, she could only hide Young Mistress in a cave.
“In the end—after a while, Young Mistress actually went missing. The formidable martial artists of our race all went forth to search and turned the entire Earth Domain upside down to no avail. You can imagine what the Eagle Empress has been feeling all this time. If the Clan King knew that your mother had stolen Young Mistress, can you imagine what he would do in a fit of rage?
“Hence… lad, I am giving you two options now. One, you and your mother as well as your Lower-Domain domain will all be wiped out. Two, you can persuade Young Mistress to return. I guarantee that no one will pursue this matter further; all of you will have a chance at life.”
“Stolen?”
Hearing this word, Jiang Yi’s eyes immediately became cold.
According to what Mu Hongcha had said, Yi Piaopiao must have been on her way and had pitied the baby that was Jiang Xiaonu and so had decided on taking in Jiang Xiaonu. How was it that when Mu Hongcha told the story it became a matter of stealing and kidnapping?
Jiang Yi feared nothing since he was born. When he threw a tantrum, no one could deal with him. He laughed coldly and said, “Xiaonu, let’s go! Since they are so overbearing and unreasonable, there’s no loss in not returning to the Ink Feather Race! At most… I will follow you to the Netherworld Realm!”
“Alright!”
Jiang Xiaonu nodded profusely. She did not have any affection for the Ink Feather Race at all. As for the parents that she had never met before, she did not feel anything for them either. She only listened to Jiang Yi. She looked coldly at Mu Hongcha and company, saying, “No one is allowed to follow along. If not, I will follow Young Master and die. I mean what I say!”
Jiang Xiaonu looked very determined. At that moment, Mu Hongcha and others all felt as if the Green Eagle King was speaking to them; no one dared to disobey.
Jiang Yi carried Jiang Xiaonu as they started to run far away. As he was injured and his soul spirit was very weak, his speed was very slow. However, his steps were steady, and his back was straight like a sharp sword.
“…”
The formidable martial artists of the Ink Feather Race all looked at each other, at a loss at what was to be done. Mu Hongcha gritted her teeth, and she gestured for everyone to follow along. However, just as they were about to move, Jiang Xiaonu immediately looked over; and she did not dare to move anymore. She could only watch as Jiang Yi carried Jiang Xiaonu and disappeared from sight.
“This…”
The formidable martial artists from the Ink Feather Race were growing anxious. Mu Hongcha waved a hand, signaling to everyone not to act rashly. Her divine senses were secretly locked onto Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu. Based on their speed, it would still take a while before they could leave the range of her divine senses.
“Uh!”
Mo Lingqiu and Xiao Hong were equally lost. This matter today had been too bizarre. If they hadn’t witnessed it themselves, they would never have imagined that Jiang Xiaonu was actually the Green Eagle King’s daughter and now actually didn’t want to return home? Instead, she wanted to follow a puny Heaven God that had ascended from the Lower Domain?
“My Lord, what should we do now?”
After Jiang Yi and Jiang Xiaonu had gone far, one man could not remain silent anymore and asked. Mu Hongcha had also been quiet for a few minutes. She then said helplessly, “We do not have a choice. We can only follow from afar. Mu Lu, send a message to the Eagle Empress. Request for her to make a trip personally. Remember not to send any messages to the Clan King. If not, based on his temper, that lad would die without question. Since Young Mistress is so stubborn, she would probably not live if that happened either…”
