Chapter 636

Seeing Li Rong appear, Wan’er quickly saluted.

The beautiful woman slightly waved her hand, indicating that there was no need to care. She walked in front of Yang Kai and looked at him with a helpless expression.

Yang Kai hehe laughed and said, “It’s only natural to avenge grievances and take revenge. It’s reasonable for your clansmen to be so excited.”

“Aren’t you afraid at all？” Li Rong was surprised. She didn’t see any sign of fear on Yang Kai’s face.

“What’s there to be afraid of.” Yang Kai’s expression was indifferent. “If Lady Li didn’t plan to interfere in this matter, she wouldn’t have appeared in front of me. Since you’re here now, it means you’ll handle it. Naturally, I’m not afraid because Lady Li seems to be especially kind to me！”

Li Rong’s expression suddenly became a little unnatural, and Guan’er couldn’t help covering her small mouth and foolishly looking at Yang Kai.

No one has ever dared to say such words that are similar to frivolity in front of Lady Li, but this human kid who doesn’t know how to live or die said it. Not only did he not anger Lady Li, but she also looked like she was default.

May I ask why this is? What’s so special about me that can make Lady Li so concerned? Yang Kai tilted his head and looked at the beautiful woman in front of him with interest.

Li Rong coughed lightly. “I won’t treat anyone who is sent in by Senior Coffin Slave badly, because maybe one day, this person will help my clan out of distress.

These words were a bit self-deceiving. Even Guan’er could tell, and how could Yang Kai not be able to hear it？

However, since Li Rong didn’t want to clarify, Yang Kai didn’t press the issue. Thinking carefully, it was after Li Rong saw the one-eyed Jin Ren in his attitude towards him changed.

Although she was also quite amicable towards him before, the relationship between them was just cooperation. Now it was different. Judging from her various cares for him, it could be seen that Li Rong was indeed quite concerned about him.

Yang Kai wasn’t stupid enough to think that such a dignified and graceful noblewoman would fall in love with him. She was a Saint Realm expert and had lived for who knew how many years. Love and affection might just be passing clouds in her eyes. As for other reasons, Yang Kai could only explain it as the effect brought by the one-eyed Jin Ren.

Yang Kai just couldn’t figure out why the one-eyed Jin Ren would make her change.

“But you’re right. Since I’ve shown up, I’ll handle this matter. Don’t worry too much. I’ve already asked people to restrain my clansmen, and they won’t look for trouble with you. But remember, don’t have conflicts and frictions with my clansmen for no reason in the future. I can protect you once, but it doesn’t mean I’ll tolerate your presumption！”

“I never take the initiative to cause trouble.” Yang Kai chuckled. This beautiful woman seemed to be deliberately covering up her gaffe in front of him, and her tone had also become much colder.

“That’s the best.” Li Rong nodded slightly, didn’t say anything more, turned around and walked outside, opening the stone door.

A moment later, Yang Kai heard Li Rong scolding those members of the Ancient Demon Race. Soon, the demons gathered outside the stone door scattered like birds and beasts and retreated one after another.

Wan’er stuck out her fragrant tongue at Yang Kai and said with an expression of admiration, “You really have some skills. But your arrogance doesn’t match your current strength. It’s not too late to be so arrogant when you advance to the Transcendent Realm one day. Hehe…”

With a charming smile, Wan’er also left.

Yang Kai slowly shook his head. Now that he was under someone else’s roof, Yang Kai was also a little at a loss.

He knew that in this damned place, except for only a few people among the Ancient Demon Race who had a relatively good attitude towards him, the others all regarded him as a heterospecies. If no one could protect him, he would die sooner or later.

This time it was Pan Lang who came to cause trouble for him, and he was still able to deal with it. But what if it was a Transcendent Realm expert next time？ What if it was a Saint Realm powerhouse the next time after that？

Therefore, Yang Kai spoke frankly and made clear Li Rong’s attitude towards him, hoping to get a little guarantee and also to confirm whether his observation was correct.

Fortunately, all his speculations were correct. Although Li Rong tried her best to hide it, Yang Kai still saw clearly that she did take good care of him.

Regardless of whether she had any conspiracy or not, Yang Kai had to take advantage of her identity and status to ensure his safety.

After thinking for a while, Yang Kai scratched his head and suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to ask what exactly that magic pattern was all about.

This matter had been on Yang Kai’s mind for several months. Ever since he first saw the patterns on the bodies of the Ancient Demon race’s clansmen, he had been quite concerned. However, being unfamiliar with the place and the people, he was reluctant to ask about these things for fear of getting into trouble.

Now that it had been confirmed that Li Rong took good care of him, it was possible to explore a bit.

Yang Kai was very interested in the magic patterns of the Ancient Demon race because when he turned into a devil, such a change would also occur, but it was even more exaggerated than that of Pan Lang and the others.

He could only wait for Guan’er to come again and find an opportunity to ask.

Yang Kai made up his mind, stopped thinking too much, turned around and walked to those medicine tripods, and continued to improve his alchemy skills.

…………

After Li Rong left the stone chamber and drove away those clansmen who wanted to cause trouble for Yang Kai, a hint of confusion couldn’t help but appear on her beautiful face.

That day when she saw Jin Ren’s single eye and was illuminated by the golden light in the single eye, the bloodline of Li Rong’s Ancient Demon race seemed to have a slight resonance. After going back, she specifically consulted the classics and found that some things recorded in the classics were very similar to what she had observed.

It was precisely because of this reason that Li Rong changed her attitude towards Yang Kai.

But after these few months, through her secret observation, she found that things were not quite as she had thought. Although this human was strange and powerful, he was far from reaching the level she had expected.

Was it really or not？ Li Rong couldn’t make up her mind anymore.

At this moment, a clansman reported that the two great commanders, Hua Mo and Han Fei, had arrived together and brought a lot of medicinal herbs.

Li Rong’s expression lit up with joy, and she immediately walked towards the direction of the great hall.

Because Yang Kai was refining pills and needed to consume countless medicinal herbs, the storage in Demon God’s Castle was already a bit insufficient. Fortunately, on the territories of the other commanders, a lot of medicinal herbs had also been accumulated over the years. Hua Mo and Han Fei had even asked their subordinates to search everywhere in the past few months, and today they sent them all over together.

After seeing Hua Mo and Han Fei and receiving the medicinal herbs, the three of them sat down and chatted as usual.

“Lord Li, has Chu Jian sent over any medicinal herbs？” Hua Mo asked.

“He did send some, but the quantity is very small. Chu Jian means that the soil in his territory is barren and there are very few medicinal herbs produced. He has only collected such a little over the years.” Li Rong rubbed her forehead.

“He’s telling blatant lies.” Hua Mo snorted coldly. “There is a mountain range on Chu Jian’s side. How could there be no medicinal herbs？ He is becoming more and more disrespectful to you, Lord.”

Han Fei also said coldly: He simply didn’t put the future of our clan in his eyes. He only wants to rule this small Mysterious Boundary. He is really ignorant and stupid!

The two great commanders criticized Chu Jian one after another and demanded that Li Rong teach Chu Jian a lesson and make him behave himself.

But as always, Li Rong just listened quietly and didn’t mean to express her thoughts.

Hua Mo and Han Fei also felt it was boring and didn’t mention it anymore.

“By the way, Lord Li, I just heard that the human kid caused some trouble？” Hua Mo suddenly asked, “Lord Li has always been fair in handling things. Why did you take sides with an outsider this time？”

Han Fei also looked at Li Rong with a slightly surprised expression. Regardless of the reason for the friction between Yang Kai and Pan Lang and others, and who was right and who was wrong, since the clansmen suffered losses, the aliens naturally had to pay the price. But the result they heard was not like this.

Li Rong smiled lightly and said, “Your news is really smart.”

Hua Mo said, “The clansmen in the fort are all talking about this matter. It’s hard for me not to hear it.”

Han Fei’s expression was cold and solemn, and she said, “Lord Li, because of this matter, many clansmen have complaints against you. Is it really worth doing this？”

Li Rong’s face also became serious. After pondering for a while, she said, “If my guess is correct, then it’s worth it！”

“What kind of guess？” Hua Mo wasfeel uncertain.

“It’s not easy to say now. I’m still observing. If you could see what I see, you would definitely make such a choice too. When the truth comes out one day, I will tell you.”

Hua Mo and Han Fei nodded slightly. After so many years, they also believed in Li Rong’s vision and judgment. Since she chose to take sides with an outsider, there must be her own reasons.

The three of them talked for a while longer before Hua Mo and Han Fei took their leave.

Although they were all from the Demon God’s Castle and all commanders, because the four major branches were located in different positions, Hua Mo and Han Fei also had to return to their own territories.

This time, the main thing was to deliver the medicinal materials here.

………………

After the incident where Pan Lang failed to provoke and was instead beaten up, the clansmen of the Ancient Demon Clan had an even worse attitude towards Yang Kai. Yang Kai also didn’t bother to provoke any trouble. Every day, he only stayed in the stone room with pills and medicinal materials. His own alchemy skills advanced rapidly, and he could refine a large number of pills every day. The consumption of medicinal materials was also countless.

Yang Kai could sense that there was a top expert secretly protecting him outside this stone room. Although this person was hidden extremely perfectly, over time, traces of Yang Kai still judged his.

This person should have been sent by Li Rong to protect him.

Sensing this, Yang Kai immediately felt much more at ease.

His relationship with Guan’er was also quite harmonious. This Demon Race girl seemed very curious about the outside world. Whenever Yang Kai was free, she would always pester him and ask him to tell stories about the outside world. The wonderfulness and beauty of the outside world made Guan’er extremely yearn for it.

Consequently, she also strongly supported his alchemy skills, hoping that one day Yang Kai would be able to refine Saint-level pills and bring good news to the clansmen.

Yang Kai also learned some news about Demon Marks from Guan’er.

According to Wan’er, their Ancient Demon race is a kind of demons with extremely pure and noble bloodlines, which is something that other demons can’t compare with. Their magic tattoos are innate, but they can be strengthened through hard work and cultivation in the acquired stage. When using the magic tattoos in battle, their own strength will be enhanced. The more comprehensively the magic tattoos are unfolded, the greater the degree of strength improvement will be.

People like Pan Lang can unfold their magic tattoos twice, and so can Wan’er herself. Yang Kai has witnessed with his own eyes the improvement of her cultivation base after she the magic tattoos.

Wan’er, who only has the cultivation base of the Sixth Layer of the Divine Movement Realm, after unfolding the magic tattoos twice, the power and blood energy contained in her body are enough to rival the peak experts of the Divine Movement Realm.
