Chapter 1001: Battle Hall’s Deputy Elder
The Devil’s Smile was comprehended by Jiang Yi at the Yi Clan’s Paintings Cliff. It was a type of soul spirit attack which would make the enemy silently affected. After Jiang Yi had comprehended this ability, he had never really released it, especially against women who he didn’t dare to release randomly.
He clearly knew that this ability was very effective against women. He had too many things to do, and he wasn’t here at the East Imperial Continent and the snow region to pick up girls. He would incur a lot of relationship debt if he was to womanize, and he wouldn’t only be letting down Su Ruoxue who was still suffering. He might easily be consigned to eternal damnation.
He had released the Devil’s Smile again today, and it was to a woman that had a favorable impression of him. However, he did it because he had no choice. He had to borrow the Heaven Devil Race’s power, and this Mo Yao’er might possibly ruin all the hard work that he had laid down previously. Hence, he had to make a move and to let Mo Yao’er play with fire and self-immolate.
When Mo Yao’er saw this smile, her delicate body instantly shivered; and her eyes were dazzled as though she was a silly drunk woman. The whip in her hand had lost strength and drooped down. Her face was so flushed that water might even drip out. She looked at Jiang Yi with infatuation and with eyes of affection and admiration.
“Sigh…”
Jiang Yi sighed lightly. Back then, when he released the Devil’s Smile, even Yi Chan and Yin Ruobing were affected by it. Thus, when Mo Yao’er made such a reaction, it was all within his expectations.
He didn’t have any affection for Mo Yao’er. Other than her beautiful appearance and her esteemed status, this woman didn’t have any redeeming qualities. She was pampered, barbaric, and overbearing. She was temperamental and would want to kill and fight for small reasons. Hence, unless it was necessary, Jiang Yi didn’t want to have any dispute with her. However, it was obvious that it wouldn’t be possible to get rid of this woman within a short period of time.
Jiang Yi, you must not be indecisive. Otherwise, all your previous hard work would go down the drain, and you will have to face the Dwarf Race alone. You might never have any hope of rescuing Ruoxue in this lifetime.
Jiang Yi forcefully hardened his heart, and the smile on his face had vanished. His eyes revealed a trace of indifference as he looked at Mo Yao’er coldly and said, “Sacred Lady has awe-inspiring authority, huh. You can beat and kill whenever you want. Mo Xing is born as a contemptible individual. If you don’t find me pleasing to the eye, you may kill me.”
“Uh…”
Jiang Yi stopped releasing the Devil’s Smile, and Mo Yao’er regained her consciousness. However, her mind was still filled with that wicked smile. When she heard Jiang Yi’s response, she wasn’t infuriated and was rather frenetic instead. She kept her whip and grabbed the corners of her dress with both her hands and spoke timidly, “Mo Xing, don’t be angry, okay? It is my fault. Who asked you to be so rude?”
Mo Yao’er had been affected as expected. Otherwise, with her temperament, she would never apologize. This wasn’t her fault too as Jiang Yi’s bearing was too unique. Let alone a little girl like her who had never been out of the snow region, even Yi Chan and Yin Ruobing—who looked down on all men and were generational beauties—couldn’t help but be attracted to him.
Of course, Jiang Yi was able to attract so many women weren’t mainly because of his strength nor his bearing. It was his mysteriousness!
Everyone had curiosity, especially young ladies who had a stronger curiosity. Jiang Yi had too many mysteries on him, and once a woman developed a curiosity towards him, they would want to constantly unearth his secrets. They would then be attracted to him and ultimately conquered by his charm.
Before Jiang Yi came to the East Imperial Continent, he warned himself not to go around womanizing.
Thus, when facing young ladies, he would instinctively resist and keep away from them. However, it was his resistance and his intention to keep away which attracted these young ladies even more. They were all female heavenly prodigies, and all the men had always revolved around them and flattered them. They even wished they could pluck the stars in the sky for them.
Women were all contradicting wretches and acted with reverse psychology as they disregarded all the men that treated them well. Instead, it was people like Jiang Yi—who was lukewarm and had kept his distance—who could deeply attract them like fatal poison, making them sink deeply with every step.
Jiang Yi didn’t understand such things. He looked at Mo Yao’er’s flushed face and spoke without any politeness, “Sacred Lady, are you the one that summoned me? Why did you summon me and made me wait for so many hours?”
“I…”
Mo Yao’er wanted to explain, but when she saw Jiang Yi’s icy cold eyes, she felt ashamed and lowered her head spoke in an agreeing tone, “I am just playing a joke on you. Do you have to be so fierce?”
“Slut!”
Jiang Yi cursed silently, casually cupped his hands, and said, “If Sacred Lady doesn’t have any other instructions, I will return to cultivate.”
“Cultivate?”
Mo Yao’er’s eyes lit up while she responded, “Mo Xing, you can cultivate in the Heaven Devil Palace. This place’s essence force is very concentrated. King Father will be back in a few days. When he returns, he will surely reward and bestow you with a position. You can just wait here for King Father to return.”
“Reward and position?”
Jiang Yi’s eyes flickered. The thing he didn’t want most was to meet with Mo Shen. If he was able to see through the Mirage Divine Ability, it would be troublesome. His mind thought quickly, and he suddenly stared at Mo Yao’er’s perky breast and said faintly, “Sacred Lady, we are alone as a man and woman. Aren’t you afraid I might act recklessly? To be honest with you, when my beast instinct takes over, even I am afraid. What if I did something to you? I will not be beneficial to both of us.”
“Bah!”
Mo Yao’er spat gently and still wasn’t infuriated. Instead, she turned her head bashfully and stomped her feet. “Mo Xing, can’t you be a ruffian? I am a girl, you know? If you continue behaving like this, I, I…”
“Hahaha!”
Jiang Yi raised his head and laughed loudly, interrupting Mo Yao’er’s speech and turned to walk outside. When he reached the entrance, he turned around and said, “Sacred Lady, can you help me arrange a place to stay in the seventeenth level? I urgently need to raise my essence force realm to the peak stage of Heaven Monarch. When I reach the peak stage of Heaven Monarch, I will help you raze the Dwarf Mountain to the ground. That’s right… it is better not to alert the Patriarch for my matters. I had just done a small thing, and it isn’t worth mentioning! Sacred Lady can just bestow me with a position, and some rewards will do. After I raze the Dwarf Mountain to the ground, you can then help me ask for recognition from the Patriarch!”
Jiang Yi had released the Devil’s Smile just for this statement. He didn’t want to meet with Mo Shen and wanted to make use of Mo Yao’er.
Mo Yao’er was still young and wouldn’t know of Jiang Yi’s plot. She had already been influenced by Jiang Yi’s heroic spirit, causing her beautiful eyes to lit up while she nodded and said, “Alright. Mo Xing, I use my status as the Sacred Lady to bestow you with the position as the battle hall’s Deputy Elder. When you reach the peak stage of Heaven Monarch, you will lead the army to invade the Dwarf Mountain. When you succeed, I will help you to seek recognition from King Father; and you will definitely be satisfied.”
“Many thanks, Sacred Lady!”
Jiang Yi revealed a peculiar smile and released the Devil’s Smile again, causing Mo Yao’er to be intoxicated. He patted the mechanism for the door, and after he flew out, he turned back and transmitted a message: “Sacred Lady, you haven’t arranged a place for me to stay. Another thing… the position you bestowed me is too high. I am afraid the race members will not accept it. If that happened, my cultivation might be disrupted.”
Swish!
After Mo Yao’er woke up, she lifted her nose high and flew outside. She then yelled outside the hall, “Elder Mo Fu, I have already bestowed Mo Xing with the position as the battle hall’s Deputy Elder. You will arrange the things later on. Everyone is to listen up. No one is to disrupt Mo Xing when he cultivates. Otherwise, they will be punished by the sect rules.”
“Wow!”
Mo Yao’er’s words had caused countless commotions in the seventeenth level. Many young masters and ladies inside the castle had flown out, and many of them had hostile eyes. They were like a wolf pack that had just gotten their territory and food taken. Even many elders were astonished.
The battle hall was the hall that had the most authority. The battle hall’s elder was the race’s most authoritative grand elder, but the grand elder had always been overseeing the Heaven Devil Mountain and never venturing out. In other words… as long as Jiang Yi ventured out, all the Heaven Devil Race would have to listen to his orders!
