Chapter 439

All the way, the people he met in the mansion greeted him with strange expressions, Youdaoplaceholder0 the four girls of the Myriad Flowers Palace. Each of them had a special meaning in their eyes when looking at Yang Kai.

Lan Chudie also giggled, her smile extremely ambiguous.

Yang Kai’s expression was solemn, and he didn’t bother to explain anything. This kind of thing would only get darker the more it was explained.

“Young Master Kai, it’s already late in the day. You got up really early. Why don’t you rest more in bed？” Huo Xingchen jumped out from nowhere, smiling sneakily and winking, saying, “How was it these days？”

“How was what？” Yang Kai looked blank.

“Hehe, don’t pretend with me.” Young Master Huo had an expression of ‘I’ve already seen through you’ on his face, looking extremely wretched. He lowered his voice and said, “A lonely man and a widow staying in the same room, and for five consecutive days at that. Didn’t anything happen？”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Yang Kai shook his head, playing dumb.

“Forget it, I understand. But Young Master Kai, this young master really admires you a bit now. Although I’ve seen countless women, I’ve never tried not getting out of bed for five consecutive days. In this regard, you’re better than me. We have to discuss it carefully another day.” A sincere smile spread across Huo Xingchen’s face.

“I don’t bother to pay attention to you！” Yang Kai pouted.

“What are you whispering about?” Qiu Yimeng happened to walk over from the front. When she saw Yang Kai, she couldn’t help but snort softly, looking displeased. She said coldly, “As one of the young masters participating in the battle for the throne, Yang Kai, I hope you can put the overall situation first. The gentle land is the hero’s grave. You know this better than I do.

Yang Kai furrowed his brows and said, “Naturally, I know. There’s no need for you to remind me.”

Qiu Yimeng opened her mouth, but still swallowed the next sentence. She had already figured out Yang Kai’s temper and naturally wouldn’t go to criticize and refute him anymore. Giving him a reminder for this matter was enough. If she said more, this stinky man was afraid to fly into a rage out of humiliation and directly turn his face.”

“Nice to meet Young Master Kai！” Beside Qiu Yimeng, there was a handsome and dashing young man. After the two finished speaking, he stepped forward to pay his respects, and his performance was also quite modest and respectful.

“This is…” Yang Kai looked at him suspiciously. This person looked unfamiliar. He seemed to have never seen him before.

“Liu Feisheng, the young city lord of Tianyuan City. I mentioned it to you last time.” Qiu Yimeng explained.

Liu Feisheng had a smile on his face and his attitude was modest and gentle. He said, “Thanks to Young Master Kai’s acceptance, the people of Tianyuan City are extremely grateful.”

Yang Kai looked at him and nodded slightly. “Your surname is Liu. What’s your relationship with the Liu family？”

“I don’t dare to claim any connection.” Liu Feisheng smiled bitterly.

Qiu Yimeng said, “It can be said that there is no relationship, but in fact, there is still a little relationship. Over the past few hundred years, the eight great families have had more or less connections with outside forces. Young Master Liu’s family was originally supposed to be a branch of the Liu family, but was expelled from the Liu family because of some things a hundred years ago. If really calculated, Liu Qingyao should be his cousin.”

Liu Feisheng’s expression was slightly miserable, and his posture was also very low. “As someone who has been expelled, I don’t dare to mention the Liu family anymore. Over the past hundred years, we have been striving with the goal of returning to the family. Although my father has now become the city lord, he has not yet reached the level of being accepted.”

Huo Xingchen’s mouth turned up and he smiled and said, “Just follow Young Master Kai. If you can assist Young Master Kai in winning this battle for the throne, I think the Liu family should be able to take you back in.”

Hearing him say this, a touch of excitement couldn’t help but appear on Liu Feisheng’s face. He clasped his fists and said, “Then I’ll borrow Young Master Huo’s good words. All of us in Tianyuan City will surely follow Young Master Kai’s lead！”

Yang Kai nodded slightly. He didn’t have much of a reaction. He just looked at Qiu Yimeng and said, “Has my Eighth Brother lost now？”

Qiu Yimeng looked back at him in surprise and chuckled, “You also saw it a long time ago？”

“Of course. If that group of people from the Medicine King Valley didn’t show up, maybe my Eighth Brother could still hold on for a while longer. But the arrival of that group of people from the Medicine King Valley must have made my several elder brothers feel the crisis. At this time, if they don’t achieve some victories, I’m afraid no one will dare to turn to them anymore.

“Well, as you said. Yang Quan has been eliminated.”

“When did this happen？”

“The night before last！”

Qiu Yimeng spoke about all the intelligence in a gentle and unhurried manner.

The appearance of more than thirty alchemists from the Medicine King Valley really made those several disciples of the Yang family panic for a while. On the one hand, they were urgently in need of a victory to boost their reputation. On the other hand, they were also trying to find a way to curb the help that these people from the Medicine King Valley brought to Yang Kai.

The night before last, Yang Zhao, Yang Kang, Yang Shen, and Yang Ying all independently focused on their eyes on Yang Quan’s residence.

There is only one Blood Servant at the 8th Layer of Divine Movement Realm in Yang Quan’s residence. Besides, there is only a second-class force from Yang Quan’s mother’s maiden family as an ally.

Absolutely at a disadvantage, he simply couldn’t defend it.

After a great battle, Yang Zhao obtained the order flag, and Yang Shen captured Yang Quan. So far, the second Yang family disciple was eliminated from the succession battle.

“The battle that night was quite interesting.” Qiu Yimeng pursed her lips and smiled. “Rather than saying they were attacking Yang Quan, it would be more accurate to say they were killing each other. The defenses of Yang Quan’s residence were already broken down in the first wave of attacks. Except for that Blood Servant protecting Yang Quan himself, almost no one else had the ability to fight back. It could almost be described as a rout.”

“Moreover, your four elder brothers formed two camps and attacked each other, both suffering losses. Yang Zhao and Yang Kang are biological brothers, and Yang Shen and Yang Ying are also biological brothers. It can be said that they are evenly matched.” After saying this, she looked at Yang Kai with deep meaning. “However, guess who benefited the most from this battle？”

Huo Xingchen also had a smile on his face, waiting for Yang Kai’s answer, as if he thought that no matter what, Yang Kai couldn’t think of the answer to this question.

Yang Kai sneered and said, “On one hand, they gained the order flag, and on the other hand, they gained my Eighth Brother. But these gains are almost only equal to the losses from their mutual attacks. What they really gained was only the reputation brought by this victory. If we talk about who benefited the most, besides me… who else could it be？”

The smiles on Qiu Yimeng and Huo Xingchen’s faces gradually faded away, and they both looked at Yang Kai in astonishment and surprise, clearly not expecting that he had such foresight.

Liu Feisheng was also shocked, and for no reason, a sense of panic rose in his heart. He discovered that although he had overestimated Yang Kai, it was still not enough.

“You know？” Qiu Yimeng asked hesitantly. “How do you know？”

“What do you think.” Yang Kai smiled slightly.

Qiu Yimeng suddenly realized. Remembering a few days ago, when everyone was discussing why Yang Kai didn’t take advantage of the situation to pursue and strengthen himself, Yang Kai had said that he didn’t want to stand out, but there was another reason. At that time, he didn’t say it, just told everyone to wait a few days and they would understand. Now, if he said it, he would only be considered arrogant.

It turned out that he had already thought of it at that time.

“If I didn’t know that you stayed in the house for five days without going out, I’m afraid I would think that someone had told you about this in advance.” Qiu Yimeng took a deep breath and said with a bitter smile. “You man, are really impossible to resist. Yes, the one who gained the most is still you. Although you didn’t get the flag or the person, and this matter has nothing to do with you at all, you still gained a Blood Servant！”

“The Blood Servant in Yang Quan’s mansion took the initiative to come and after Yang Quan was out!” Qiu Yimeng said in a deep voice. “The strength of that Blood Servant is not inferior to Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian.”

“Injured？ Where is the person？” Yang Kai asked quickly.

Blood Servants are an extremely loyal group. Since Yang Quan has already been eliminated, how could the Blood Servant beside him possibly be safe and sound? The fact that he didn’t die on the spot already shows that his strength is formidable.

“Seriously injured and currently recuperating. He won’t be able to exert his combat strength within one or two months. But I think with your miraculous methods, it won’t be a big deal to cure him, right？” Qiu Yimeng snorted softly. To this day, she still can’t figure out what kind of miraculous elixir Yang Kai gave to Qu Gaoyi and Ying Jiu to make them fully recover within a day.

Even after Qu Gaoyi was seriously injured again that night, he appeared in front of everyone alive and kicking the next day.

Even if there is such a miraculous elixir, it should be extremely precious. How can it be used so recklessly?

“I’ll go take a look at him later.” Yang Kai nodded slightly.

“Can you tell me, what is the reason for this？”

“What reason？”

Why didn’t that Blood Servant go and seek refuge with other princes, but only chose you? Why could you already assert that ten days ago that after Yang Quan was eliminated this Blood Servant would come to you. There can’t be no reason for this, right? Qiu Yimeng asked questions one after another. Obviously, there were quite a few doubts in her heart.

The incident in the Blood Servant Hall that time was only circulated among the high-level of the Yang Family and the various young master. Others didn’t know about it, and of course Qiu Yimeng didn’t know much about it either.

How could she know that Yang Kai had once taken a huge risk to choose to employ Qu Gaoyi and Ying Jiu, who had been injured at the root, and thus won the respect of the entire Blood Servant Hall？

After winning the respect of all the powerhouses in the Blood Servant Hall, when the prince they followed was eliminated who else could these blood servants choose if not Yang Kai?

“No comment.” Yang Kai grinned, “But I can tell you that in the future, all the eliminated blood servants will come to my residence.”

His tone was confident and his expression was wild.

In Qiu Yimeng’s mind, she couldn’t help but picture that as those young master were eliminated one by one one powerful blood servant after another would gather in Yang Kai’s residence, and she couldn’t help but show a look of horror.

This was something that had never happened before. No Yang family disciple had ever been able to take all the blood servants under his command.

If things really developed as Yang Kai said, then he would be no less than creating a miracle. By that time, with so many blood servants here, how could Yang Kai lose？ He was already in an invincible position. At that time, the remaining enemies could only pray that Yang Kai would not attack them.

“I suddenly feel a little sympathy for your several older brothers. This is simply not a fair battle.” Qiu Yimeng smiled bitterly.

“The battle for the throne has never been fair！ If it were really fair, how could Yang Tie and Yang Quan have been eliminated so early？” Yang Kai snorted coldly.
