"As I expected…"
He Lao's guess was correct, and so was Jiang Yi's!
Jiang Yi felt that a white light flashed by, and he appeared in a grand palace. He let out a trace of smile. He took a gamble at the last moment. Now, it was proven that—the gamble paid off.
Jiang Yi was smart and astonishingly talented. Since he was young, Jiang Yunhai had praised him all the time. He sensed something peculiar since this grievance beast showed up and did not kill him immediately for slaying Yun Lu. That grievance beast clearly knew that Yun Lu was the descendant of the Witch God. Yet, it chattered away. This was inherently abnormal.
For example, if Jiang Yi—with his current strength—met a tier-two demonic beast who even provoked him, would he waste words on the demonic beast? Would he ask the demonic beast kneel and cry for mercy?
Obviously not!
