Chapter 405

A few months ago, Lv Si went up to Cloud Hidden Peak and handed the letter and jade pendant that Yang Kai gave him to Xiao Fusheng. Immediately, Master Xiao refined a Mysterious Pill for him. After taking the Mysterious Pill and refining its medicinal effect, Lv Si completely got rid of his previous sufferings and truly became a Divine Movement Realm cultivator.

After returning to the Lv family, Lv Si immediately called Lv Liang over and told him some confidential matters.

No one knew exactly what Elder Si said to the family head, but the high-ranking members of the clan could sense that after returning from Lu Si, Lu Liang’s perception of Yang Kai had changed somewhat. It was precisely because of this that he was so straightforward in allowing Lu Song to bring a lot of good things to the Central Capital to apologize to Yang Kai.

Lu Song didn’t quite understand the ins and outs of it, so he still had some difficulties understanding his father’s words.

“If this Yang Kai loses in the fight for succession, what’s the point of me sending so many things to him？” Lu Song said, shaking his head. He just couldn’t figure out the key point and kept murmuring： “It’s not easy, it’s not easy！”

The expert beside him heard this and said： “Young master, how about we first see how this Yang Kai performs？ Anyway, the master just said to deliver the things to his hands, and didn’t say exactly when to send them over. If he can’t even hold on tonight, then what to do with this batch of supplies will be up to young master to decide. If he performs well, we will have to follow the master’s instructions.”

“Right, that’s it.” Lu Song nodded in agreement. “If he loses on the first day of the fight for succession, then he will definitely have no status in the Yang family in the future. Such a person is not worth our Lu family befriending.”

“What the young master said is extremely true！” That expert also nodded.

In the northwest corner of the Battle City, at Yang Kai’s residence.

In a room, Yang Kai was sitting with a lazy expression. A maid served tea, and Yang Kai picked it up and took a sip before waving her away.

Before leaving, the maid looked at Qu Gaoyi and Ying Jiu with a somewhat frightened expression in her eyes.

The condition of these two Blood Servants had been getting worse and worse in the past few days. Especially after the night when they were sent out by Yang Kai to subdue the small forces in the northern urban area of Zhongdu and returned, their bodies had become weaker and weaker. Their injuries showed no sign of improvement at all. Even though they had taken the special healing pills of the Yang family, the effect was minimal.

Their foundations had been damaged！

Regarding this point, both Yang Kai and they themselves were extremely clear. If their foundations hadn’t been damaged, with their strength and vitality, their injuries would have improved to some extent.

At this moment, the complexions of the two Blood Servants were deathly pale, and they were sweating all over. It seemed that there was intense pain in their bodies. Their complexions also alternated between being gentle and ferocious, and the blue veins on their foreheads bulged up like earthworms which was extremely terrifying.

Ordinary people would naturally feel horrified when seeing this.

Even so, the two of them stood there like javelins, motionless.

Yang Kai raised his eyes and looked at them, and his gaze was filled with admiration.

He himself was also a person with extremely strong concentration and a rather firm disposition. But if he put himself in the shoes of the two Blood Servants and thought about it, I’m afraid he wouldn’t have done any better than them.

At the very least, the young master they followed didn’t seem to regard them as human beings, only thinking about squeezing their last value before their vitality was drained. Just this point alone, Yang Kai couldn’t accept it.

But the loyalty of the two blood attendants to the Yang family made them have no complaints. Not only did they have no complaints, but they didn’t even show any expressions. They were even more loyal to Yang Kai, doing whatever they were told without a single word of nonsense.

Feeling Yang Kai’s gaze, the expressions of Qu Gaoyi and Ying Jiu became even more meticulous.

After a long while, Yang Kai chuckled and said, “Which of you two is Qu Gaoyi？”

To be honest, Yang Kai really didn’t know who was who, because from the time he returned from the Blood Attendant Hall until now, they hadn’t said a single word to each other.

The two blood attendants heard these words, but their expressions didn’t change at all. The taller and stronger-looking one quickly clasped his fists and said, “This subordinate is Qu Gaoyi！”

“Then you are Ying Jiu？” Yang Kai looked at the other person.

Ying Jiu nodded slightly. Among the two blood attendants, Ying Jiu was rather special. Although he was a man, he was extremely delicate. His figure was tall and thin, and there were two small mustaches on the corner of his mouth, making him look especially shrewd. Moreover, relatively speaking, he seemed to be more taciturn. This person’s character should be the same as Yang Wei’s, both solitary people.

From the few words of Fourth Master Yang and Dong Suzhen, Yang Kai also learned about the fields of expertise of these two blood attendants.

What Qu Gaoyi is best at is rapid outbreak. He can completely burst out all of his true essence and all of his spiritual consciousness power within the time of a stick of incense. Once the attack is launched, it will be continuous and will not give the enemy the slightest chance to catch their breath. And within this stick of incense time, among martial artists of the same realm, he is basically an invincible existence.

This person is the one in the entire Blood Attendant Hall who is most willing to risk his life！ Although he is at the 8th level of the Divine Movement Realm, over the years, he has defeated many experts at the peak of the Divine Movement Realm.

Even in the entire Blood Attendant Hall, his strength is considered relatively high.

However, Ying Jiu is different. What Ying Jiu is best at is speed. He comes and goes without a trace, and his hiding skills are quite excellent. When he makes a move to attack, the enemy won’t even have time to react.

There is a rumor that in the Yang Family’s Blood Attendant Hall, the most difficult person to deal with is not the hall master Feng Sheng, nor the deputy hall master Zhou Feng, but Ying Jiu who is like a shadow.

The person targeted by him, even if they flee to the ends of the earth, cannot escape his pursuit and killing.

These two people cooperate with each other and complement each other, and they are a pair of blood attendants that make people tremble with fear.

Last time, the two escorted the fourth son of the younger generation of the Yang Family, Yang Xinwu, back to the clan and were besieged by many Divine Movement Realm experts. The strength of that group of enemies was even stronger than what Yang Kai had encountered.

Qu Gao and Ying Jiu did their best to protect, but Yang Xinwu’s own strength was insufficient, so he couldn’t escape misfortune.

Yang Kai suddenly spoke to them. Both Qu Gao and Ying Jiu were completely confused and didn’t know what instructions he had to give, so they quickly looked at him in confusion.

“Do you have any complaints against me？” Unexpectedly, Yang Kai actually asked such a question.

When speaking, Yang Kai had a smile on the corner of his mouth and looked at them with deep meaning.

Qu Gao quickly said, “This subordinate dare not.”

“Not at all？” Yang Kai snorted softly. “I want to hear the truth.”

Qu Gao’s face couldn’t help but show some embarrassment. He exchanged a glance with Ying Jiu and didn’t know what to say.

When in the Blood Servant Hall, the two heard Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian say how kind this young master was and how well he treated the blood servants. Later, it was Yang Kai who used them as attendants when they were completely disheartened.

With the words of Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian in their ears and Yang Kai’s righteous act later, Qu Gao and Ying Jiu were naturally grateful in their hearts and secretly decided to assist Yang Kai in achieving some success, even if they lost their lives.

But these days with him, he didn’t even look at the two of them directly, his attitude was extremely cold, and he didn’t give them time to heal and rest.

Although their blood servants are loyal to the Yang family, they are still human beings anyway! The so-called scholar dies for his bosom friend. Since the master Yang Kai does not show any concern for his Youdaoplaceholder0 like this, they will naturally feel uncomfortable in their hearts.

“Speak.” Yang Kai picked up the teacup and took a sip, looking at them with a serious face.

Qu Gao Yi then licked his chapped lips and said, Both Shadow Nine and I were already at the end of our rope. It was the young master who helped us in our peril! The kindness of sending charcoal in the snow, the two of us subordinates will remember it in our hearts. So no matter what, the two of us subordinates will never dare to have any complaints against the young master, but… we are slightly disappointed!

The words were sincere and the expression was solemn, obviously it was the truth from the heart.

The corner of Yang Kai’s mouth slowly raised： “Do you think I am not the same as what Tu Feng and the others said？”

Qu Gao Yi nodded slightly, and this time even Shadow Nine responded.

“Of course it won’t be the same, because I didn’t originally want to choose you！” Yang Kai stood up, “What I want is Tu Feng and Yu Xian. After all, everyone is already familiar.”

The expressions of the two blood servants darkened.

“But it’s the first time for everything, and I think we are quite familiar now.” Yang Kai smiled and looked at the two： “At least, I know your true thoughts in your hearts.”

Both Qu Gao Yi and Shadow Nine’s eyes lit up, and they looked at him silently. What Yang Kai said was equivalent to telling them that he wanted to communicate with them, which was exactly what the two of them had been looking forward to.

“I don’t doubt your loyalty to the Yang Family, nor do I doubt your gratitude to me！” Yang Kai raised his eyebrows and laughed. “But if there comes a day when I have a conflict with the Yang Family, what choice will you make？ Will you stand on my side or on the side of the Yang Family？”

The complexions of the two changed upon hearing this, and they both looked at Yang Kai in horror.

“Little Young Master must be joking？” Qu Gaoyi furrowed his brows and asked.

“I’m serious.” Yang Kai stared at him without blinking.

Qu Gaoyi took a deep breath： “Although I don’t hope such a thing will happen, if there really comes such a day, Ying Jiu and I will still follow Little Young Master！”

Ying Jiu spoke up rarely, with a cold expression： “If it weren’t for Little Young Master, the two of us might have already crippled our cultivation and secluded ourselves in the mountains. So our cultivation is Little Young Master’s, and Little Young Master can use it as he pleases.”

Hearing what the two of them said, Yang Kai finally grinned.

The reason they said this was, first, because Yang Kai was also a member of the Yang Family, and they didn’t think such a situation would really occur. Second, it was also because they believed they didn’t have much time left. Even if there really was such a day, they wouldn’t be able to wait for it.

But in any case, Yang Kai finally got the answer he wanted.

“I once told Yu Xian that those who know my secrets will either become my people or become dead people！” Yang Kai’s smile became strange and full of evil qi. “Now you are qualified to know a little of my secret.”

Qu Gao Yi and Ying Jiu were both startled, looking at Yang Kai in surprise, not knowing what he was talking about.

“These two pills, one for each of you, take them and swallow them.” Yang Kai reached out and threw, and two pills flew out.

Qu Gao Yi and Ying Jiu reached out to catch them, thanked verbally, but were extremely puzzled in their hearts.
