Chapter 116

The four people had indeed recovered completely and were waiting for Yang Kai here. Nie Yong was extremely impatient and kept muttering non-stop.

After Yang Kai arrived, Lan Chudie took a deep breath, and her plump chest swelled exaggeratedly. The upper garment tightly bound to her body seemed to burst open. Her beautiful eyes looked around： “Are you ready？”

“Already ready for a long time！” Nie Yong was excited.

“Then let’s do it again.” After saying that, she turned her head and looked at Yang Kai: Do you want to change someone else to hold back those stone sculptures? This is after all a dangerous job.

“No need, I’ve tried it once and already have experience！” Yang Kai shook his head.

He really didn’t want to fight against the stone sculptures. Fighting against such guys without blood and flesh made his hands and feet hurt.

“Alright then！ This time it’s also up to you.” Lan Chudie smiled slightly.

Whenever she smiled at him at this time, Yang Kai always felt a little strange, as if it was a smile she bestowed on him before carrying out a dangerous mission.

If it were Nie Yong, he might be greatly encouraged, but for Yang Kai, he always felt that it had no flavor.

Without making a sound, Yang Kai quickly charged towards the position where the stone sculptures were gathered.

This time, it was indeed the case that the stone sculptures were all to chase out together. However, Lan Chudie and the others were not so lucky. When intercepting in the end, they accidentally blocked one more stone sculpture, making them flustered and nearly causing casualties.

Yang Kai also back two stones sculptures in the end. After the abuse, they both became pieces of broken stone.

This time, his character exploded, and he actually obtained two small stone men at once.

In this way, the number of small stone men has reached as many as four. There are only five people in this small team. As long as one more is gathered, each person can be divided one.

Yang Kai was full of anticipation. What he lacked the most was martial skills. Of course, he wanted to get a small stone man first and then increase his own combat power.

In the next few days, the five people have been staying in this Rock Rock constantly attracting the stone sculptures out to intercept and kill. After each battle, everyone rested for half a day and then repeated the cycle.

I don’t know if it’s a matter of luck or something. Since getting four small stone men that day, the team has broken up a full thirty stone sculptures and actually gained nothing more.

This is very different from the expected result, making everyone a little disappointed.

Moreover, with the repeated luring snakes out of their holes Yang Kai found that these stone sculptures were becoming more and more difficult to deal with. It’s not that their strength has become stronger, but it’s very difficult to separate them anymore.

Once when Lan Chudie and the others were intercepting from behind, they actually attracted more than a dozen stone sculptures to chase after them at once, causing them to have no choice but to flee in a hurry.

That time, the group ran around in the stone for a full over an hour before they managed to get rid of all the stone sculptures.

The operation is getting more and more dangerous, but the fifth little stone man just doesn’t show up no matter what.

It was another arduous battle, and still without any harvest. After resting for half a day, the five people gathered together to discuss.

“How about we just forget it like this? I feel that if we continue, something bad might happen.” Nie Yong was a little worried.

Zuo An said in a muffled voice： “Now there are only four sets of martial arts skills, but there are five of us. How should we divide them？”

There was a moment of silence. No one would take the initiative to give up the share of benefits that they could obtain. Everyone had put in a lot of effort these days and was counting on getting a set of Earth-level martial arts skills.

Nie Yong turned his attention to Yang Kai again and said with a light smile： “Previously, Senior Sister Lan also said that the obtained things would be distributed according to the amount of effort each person put in. Junior Brother Yang has the lowest strength and put in the least effort, so he shouldn’t want this martial arts skill, right？”

Yang Kai sneered and looked at him.

Nie Yong continued： “Of course, Junior Brother Yang has also put in some effort. It wouldn’t be right for him to get nothing. How about each of us compensates him with some silver？”

Zuo An frowned and showed a thoughtful expression. This proposal obviously moved him.

Du Yishuang said firmly： “No way. How can a set of Earth-level martial arts skills be compensated with just a little silver？”

Yang Kai sneered coldly and looked at him. Although he was looking at Nie Yong, the corner of his eye was aiming at Lan Chudie. He wanted to know. In this situation, what would this woman say.

Her attitude would determine Yang Kai’s next move.

Lan Chudie remained silent all the time！

Yang Kai’s sneer became even stronger！

The awkward silence lasted for a long time, and Lan Chudie had to speak： “Well, let’s try again. See if we can get the last little stone man. If it really doesn’t work, then one of us will definitely not be able to obtain the Earth-level martial skill. But I, Lan Chudie, hereby guarantee. The one who doesn’t get the little stone man will definitely not suffer a loss. After returning to the sect, I will definitely try my best to give compensation！”

Her words seemed to be addressed to the four people, but in fact, Yang Kai knew that she was mainly telling him.

Among the people present, Yang Kai had the lowest strength and could provide the least help to the team. If Lan Chudie wanted to offend someone, she would only choose to offend Yang Kai.

“This is probably our last chance. Everyone must put their heart into it！” Lan Chudie said as she stood up, turned her head to look at Yang Kai, and smiled gently： “Junior Brother Yang, I have to trouble you again.”

Yang Kai gave her a meaningful look, nodded silently, and then stood up and walked towards the stone sculpture.

Sensing his cold attitude, a hint of faint apology flashed in Lan Chudie’s beautiful eyes, but it disappeared quickly.

Yang Kai had done this kind of thing many times in the past few days, so he was naturally very familiar with it. However, this time, he had another plan.

As usual, he came to the front of those stone sculptures and approached them step by step. After they all moved, Yang Kai ran back in an orderly manner, while observing the movements of the several stone sculptures at the back.

After the several stone sculptures at the back were crowded together, Yang Kai was satisfied and ran away at full speed.

As always, he rushed past the place where the other four people were ambushing, and dozens of stone sculptures rumbled after him.

Lan Chudie and the others seized the opportunity to intercept, but this time, the several stone sculptures at the back were all intercepted together, there were actually four of them.

Lan Chudie’s expression changed, and she quickly shouted： “Nie Yong, call two people to take them away！”

“Why me！” Nie Yong’s face showed a panicked expression.

Du Yishuang sneered coldly： “Didn’t you always say that restraining the stone sculptures is the simplest thing？ Yang Kai can lead away dozens or even hundreds of them, can’t you even restrain two？”

“Who said I can’t！” Nie Yong was enraged, and immediately his moves became wide open and closed, enveloping the two stone sculptures in his attacks. After completely attracting them, he quickly ran away to a distance.

There were still two stone sculptures left, but there were three people in the field. As long as they spent a little time, they could naturally eat them steadily.

While the four of them were laboriously fighting here, Yang Kai had also been leading the dozens of stone sculptures behind him in a frenzied dash within the rock.

Unlike before, this time Yang Kai deliberately controlled the distance and wouldn’t get rid of them again.

He had continuously run for a full fifty li or so before he leaped onto a stone pillar and looked back at the stone sculptures that were following behind.

Half of the plan had succeeded！ Yang Kai’s heart settled greatly, but he didn’t know if his guess was correct.

The reason why he went to great lengths to have Lan Chudie and the others stop four stone sculptures wasn’t that Yang Kai wanted to kill with a borrowed knife. He didn’t have such a vicious thought.

Four stone sculptures, with their abilities, they could definitely handle them, but it would just take more time. Yang Kai just wanted them to waste more time so that his next plan wouldn’t be detected.

Whether they could obtain the little stone man this time or not, Yang Kai wouldn’t place his hopes on others anymore. This woman Lan Chudie was too realistic and couldn’t be expected to handle things fairly.

If they still got nothing this time, Yang Kai was certain that those four little stone men would definitely not have his share！

So if you want good things, you can only rely on yourself.

These days, Yang Kai had been constantly thinking about a problem, that is, why these stone sculptures would run back after being led away. Eventually, he came to a conclusion – they were probably guarding something there.

This thing should be much more precious than the martial skills contained within the little stone man.

This was just a guess, but it was worth taking a risk to give it a try！

All the stone sculptures have been led here, and he has a distance of fifty miles to take advantage of.

Taking a deep breath, the True Yang Yuan Qi in Yang Kai’s body circulated frantically. Two clusters of firelight flickered faintly under his feet, and his body was like an arrow leaving the string, quickly returning along the original path.

This time, his speed was actually twice as fast as before！

This was also a method of using the True Yang Yuan Qi that Yang Kai had figured out on his own. It couldn’t be considered a martial skill, just a technique.

The advantage was that it could increase his speed to the limit, but the disadvantage was that the consumption was extremely high！ The True Yang Yuan Qi in the meridians continuously poured into the soles of his feet, flowing away as fiercely as a flood that had burst its banks.

In just half a cup of tea’s time, the Yuan Qi in the meridians dried up.

A drop of Yang Liquid in the dantian exploded, and the dried-up meridians were filled again.

After continuously consuming four drops of Yang Liquid, Yang Kai finally returned to the place where the stone sculptures had gathered.

This was a flat ground, but as for the specific terrain, Yang Kai hadn’t carefully explored it. Every time he attracted the stone sculptures and ran away, there simply wasn’t the time.

Now this place was completely empty. Yang Kai looked around and hurriedly searched in the vicinity.

If his guess was correct, then there must be something here.

After searching for a while, Yang Kai indeed had a discovery.

In the center of this flat ground, there was a huge pit, and in the pit stood a somewhat unusual stone sculpture.

This stone statue was much more domineering than the others, whether in terms of its volume or its shape.

This is it！

Yang Kai didn’t hesitate for a moment and jumped down, then quietly approached it.

Having had many experiences, Yang Kai knew that once he got within one chi of these stone statues, they would come to life.

Yang Kai was already prepared to run away at any time. This place was not suitable for fighting. In a short while, those dozens of stone statues would probably return. If he was really surrounded by them, it would be a situation of certain death.

But to Yang Kai’s surprise, after he got within one chi of this stone statue, it didn’t show any sign of movement. Instead, Yang Kai, who had taken a step to escape, stopped in his tracks again.

What’s going on？

After a few consecutive tests s, this stone statue still showed no reaction! Yang Kai’s courage couldn’t help but increase a lot. No matter why it didn’t move, but this was a good opportunity to strike at this time.

The True Yang Yuan Qi circulated frantically. Yang Kai didn’t hesitate either. He punched the stone statue ferociously again and again, wanting to smash it to pieces as quickly as possible.
