The Title Battle, as its name suggested, was a contest to win a title of honor .
Sword King, Sword Master and Junior Martial Arts King were some of the
titles .
Recognized by the Spirit of the Eight Realms, the result of this contest was
valued a lot in the Three Middle Realms . Every time the Title Battle was held,
the youngsters of the Three Middle Realms would go crazy .
Ji Yinyi was to take part in the competition . Her younger sister was only a
Reaching Heaven State . She was traveling with Ji Yinyi for some other
reason .
The two sisters' team was bigger than the others', so it was no problem at all
for them to find a room for Jiang Chen .
This gave the other two Celestial Venerable an excuse to complain .
However, as Jiang Chen said, it was impossible to fight here . As long as Ji
Yinyi refused to give up her control of the ship resolutely, they could do
nothing to her .
In the room, Jiang Chen shaved his beard . He observed himself carefully in
the bronze mirror .
He had lost lots of vigor, but not so much as to influence his appearance . So,
at least he still looked the same .
And he had gained so much during those eight months that he didn't feel he
had lost anything at all . On the contrary, he thought those eight months were
really worth it .
Those two from the Jiangs must think I am already dead . Should I disguise
myself, just to be safe? But the two sisters already saw my face . I'll just wait
until I get off the ship . Hopefully everything will be all right . I don't want more
surprises, Jiang Chen thought to himself .
However, he was really a jinx . What he wanted to avoid most happened
again .
He had been on the ship for ten hours . By then, it seemed the ship had

encountered a storm . He kept hearing sounds like the flaps of waves .
Jiang Chen didn't think it a big deal at first, but at the thought of how dreadful
the Desolate Forbidden Land was, he came onto the deck right away .
Then he found his reaction was kind of negative .
All of them gathered on the deck, and everyone's facial expression was quite
interesting . They were looking around, petrified .
Jiang Chen noticed many odd-looking living creatures were madly attacking
every part of the hulk .
They looked pretty odd, a little bit like fierce beasts and a little bit like demons .
They were like the mix of the two .
All of them looked ferocious, hideous and horrible .
The color of their skin would change with the light change in the Desolate
Forbidden Land .
That was why it was difficult to see how many of them there were . They were
like everywhere, thickly dotted around the ship .
"Desolate Spirits! There are so many Desolate Spirits!"
The people on the ship shouted in surprise .
"These are Desolate Spirit?"
Jiang Chen wasn't completely ignorant of the Three Middle Realms . He was
quite interested in these living creatures, since they only existed in the Three
Middle Realms .
If he were't in danger himself, he would have felt more interested .
The ward of the hulk was to be destroyed . They were put nervous by each
flap they heard .
Different from Jiang Chen, who had stayed in the Desolate Forbidden Land
for eight months, these people had never left the vehicle . As a result, they had
never been really exposed to the threats posed by the Desolate Forbidden
Land .

The bald man came up to Jiang Chen in a rush . He tried to grasp the latter's
clothes .
Jiang Chen dodged back . Then he roared, "Did you bring these Desolate
Spirits here?"
Those Desolate Spirits appeared not long after Jiang Chen had been aboard .
It was suspicious indeed .
"If it were me who brought them here, you think I would have waited for ten
hours?"
Jiang Chen rolled his eyes . If those Desolate Spirits had appeared right after
he had embarked on the ship, he might also assume it was him who had
brought them here .
However, since such a long time had passed, it was really difficult to
determine where the air ship had passed by and where they had disturbed
these things .
"Don't you see what situation we are in? Are you still playing the stupid old
trick?" Ji Yinyi said unhappily .
She didn't know what to say to the two Celestial Venerables . They just didn't
seem to know what was the most important at the moment .
Even if they could take advantage of the current situation to take over her
control right, what could they do? Could they get rid of such a great amount of
Desolate Spirits?
The bald man said, "Ji Yinyi, it's such a coincidence . Besides, no matter
whether he did it or not, he isn't one of us . It's the best timing to throw him
away . "
"You want to use him to attract the attention of the Desolate Spirits?" Ji Yinyi
said in surprise .
"You have other solutions?"
The bald man didn't answer, but the other Celestial Venerable said without
thinking .

"Dude . "
The bald man kept staring at Jiang Chen . He said, "We will give you a boat,
also protected by ward . You can use it to break out of the Desolate Spirits'
encirclement . You can't say we are cruel . You know, you are just not one of
us . "
"It's too much . We should work out a way together," Ji Yinyi said coldly .
"This is the best solution . If you don't agree, give up your control right . Let me
tell you one thing . The boat he is going to take is also yours!"
"Without the boat, I'll have to turn to you if anything comes up?" Ji Yinyi said
coldly .
The two Celestial Venerables didn't speak, but what they were implying was
quite obvious .
"I don't want to stay on this ship anymore . I'll go with him to break out of the
encirclement," Ji Yinyi said .
The two Celestial Venerables were not the only people surprised by her
response . Even Jiang Chen couldn't believe what he had heard .
There was another woman who was so good to him .
However, that woman was called Tang Shiya .
Jiang Chen couldn't help but doubt her motive, but he didn't think she could
be as scheming Tang Shiya . They had just met . This woman couldn't have
plotted anything .
Otherwise, she would be more terrible than Tang Shiya .
"A promise is a promise . Don't regret . Will your younger sister stay?" the bald
man asked .
"Staying here is more dangerous than breaking out of the encirclement," the
teenager girl said . She was as decisive as her elder sister .
"Well, good luck then," the other Celestial Venerable said sarcastically .
"Cut the crap . Just go . " Out of patience, the bald man started to drive them
away .
As they spoke, the boat had already been ready . They were waiting for Jiang
Chen and the two women to leave .
"Listen to my direction . Let's dash out . These people are still behaving like this
at such a crucial moment . They're obviously courting death . "
Ji Yinyi said, looking at Jiang Chen, who was totally confused .
"Are you sure we can do it?" Jiang Chen didn't know why she was so
confident .
"Trust me . We don't have the time to talk about this now," Ji Yinyi said . A cold
look flashed in her eyes .
Jiang Chen was shocked . He more or less guessed what she was going to
do . He jumped onto the boat right away .
The boat flew out of the ship . After such a long wait, the Desolate Spirits were
eager and impatient .
"Bad . She hasn't given us her control right!"
The complacent bald man was shocked to hear the other Celestial Venerable .
Almost at the same time, the protection jar of the air ship was switched off . A
huge amount of Desolate Spirits swarmed onto the ship .
In this way, a gap was created so that the boat could make a safe retreat .
Jiang Chen looked back . The two Celestial Venerables had switched on the
protection jar again . They were busy dealing with the Desolate Spirits that had
got aboard .
Then he looked towards Ji Yinyi . She looked cold and emotionless . She
wasn't even frowning .
People born in desolate lands are all the same .
Jiang Chen sighed, but not out of disdain, because without a cruel heart, it
would be impossible to survive in such a dangerous place .
At least she had saved him . It meant she was a woman with principles .
This was the kind of women Jiang Chen appreciated most .
His apprentice sister was like this, too . So was Fan Tianyin . But of course, it
didn't mean he wanted to court Ji Yinyi .
