Chapter 666
byTime passed in a flash. Yang Kai had been in the Thunderbolt Divine Sect for two months. Two months was not a long time, but it was not short either. Yang Kai still couldn’t make up his mind whether to rely on the Thunderbolt Divine Sect to achieve his goal.
Through the inquiries during this period, he found that the Thunderbolt Divine Sect also had many shady dealings, which made him not feel at ease.
After Ji Meng returned from paying the spirit pills to the main altar of the sect for the second time, she reported a piece of news to Yang Kai: “Elder Duan wants to invite you to go to the main altar.”
“Oh?” Yang Kai raised his eyebrows. “What’s the matter?”
“The elder didn’t say.” Ji Meng shook her head. “He just said to let you go as soon as possible. He has important matters to discuss.”
“Well, I see.” Yang Kai nodded. After bringing him here last time, Duan Hai had never shown up. As the great elder of the Thunderbolt Divine Sect, he must have a lot of things to deal with. Yang Kai could understand that.
“Shall we leave now?” Ji Meng asked consultatively.
“Alright.” Yang Kai didn’t mean to delay either. He nodded and followed Ji Meng, flying towards the direction of the Thunderbolt Divine Sect’s main altar.
This was Yang Kai’s first time going to the Thunderbolt Divine Sect’s main altar. He was unfamiliar with the place and naturally needed Ji Meng to lead the way. After flying for a long time, they gradually arrived at the area where the crowd gathered.
Looking down from the sky, there were lots of buildings below. Many martial artists wearing golden clothes were walking around. In the sky there were also quite a number of people flying, in a hurry.
The entire Thunderbolt Divine Sect was filled with surging vitality. There were countless martial artists, and powerful experts emerged in an endless stream.
Yang Kai nodded repeatedly as he watched, full of praise.
Thunderbolt was not a major power in the Tongxuan Continent. It was not even the top in this radius of several thousand miles. The most top one was Tianxiao Sect which was a powerful force with a Saint Realm expert sitting in it. Others such as Luo Shengmen and Guyue Cave Heaven also had more substantial capital than Thunderbolt.
Among these four forces, Thunderbolt was only at the bottom, but it still had which was a gap that the world Yang Kai came from could not compare to.
Following Ji Meng, they directly landed in front of a magnificent building. Yang Kai took out his guest elder nameplate. The guarding disciple quickly bowed respectfully. It seemed that he had never seen such a young guest elder and kept looking at Yang Kai with surprise on his face.
“You just go up from here. Elder Duan is waiting for you there.” Ji Meng gestured.
“You’re not going in?”
“I’m not qualified to go in.” Ji Meng said nervously.
Yang Kai nodded slightly: “Then you wait for me here for a while and we’ll go back together later.”
“Okay.” Ji Meng replied happily.
Following the steps layer by layer and walking for a long time, Yang Kai finally came to the front of the main hall. The door was wide open. Yang Kai stepped in.
Duan Hai was waiting inside. Seeing Yang Kai’s arrival, he quickly showed a smile and got up to welcome him.
“Elder Duan.” Yang Kai clasped his fists at greeted.
“Guest Elder Yang, it’s been two months. How have you been recently?”
“Not bad.”
“Have the disciples of our church served you well? If Guest Elder Yang is not satisfied with her, I can replace her for you and surely make you satisfied.”
“No need. Ji Meng is quite good.” Yang Kai shook his head.
“Then it’s all up to you.” Duan Hai smiled all over his face and invited Yang Kai to take a seat. A disciple served fragrant tea. After drinking for a while, Yang Kai then asked, “I wonder what Elder Duan wants to teach me by asking me to come here this time?”
“I don’t dare!” Duan Hai quickly waved his hand, looking modest. “There’s nothing in particular this time. It’s just that after every guest elder comes to our church, I will have a chat with him.”
Yang Kai looked indifferent, knowing that the other party was going to build a relationship and make friends with him. This was also the means of all forces to win over people’s hearts.
Previously, I heard that Guest Elder Yang couldn’t stay in the Divine Sect for a long time. May I ask if Guest Elder Yang has any important matters to attend to?” Duan Hai asked with a smile. “If there is anything, Guest Elder Yang must not be polite. Just say a word, and our Divine Sect will definitely do our best to help.
When that time comes, I won’t be polite.” Yang Kai chuckled.”
That would be the best.” Duan Hai nodded slightly. “By the way, Guest Elder Yang also said before that when the time is ripe, he will ask our Divine Sect to do a favor. May I ask if the time is ripe now?
Yang Kai shook his head.
I understand.” Duan Hai laughed heartily. “It seems that Guest Elder Yang doesn’t have much nostalgia for our Divine Sect and has no intention of belonging. Moreover, there is still some distrust.
Yang Kai’s brows furrowed, and he stared deeply at Duan Hai, unable to help but become somewhat vigilant. Duan Hai’s words held great meaning.
If possible, I very much hope that Guest Elder Yang can join our Divine Sect and become a part of it.” Duan Hai’s expression suddenly became solemn. “However, Guest Elder Yang doesn’t seem to have this plan, and I, on the other hand, can’t wait to find out the secret on your body!
As he spoke, he lightly stomped on the ground with his feet.
Suddenly, with Yang Kai as the center, lines of formation patterns lit up on the ground all around. These formation patterns quickly contracted and, caught off guard, surged into Yang Kai’s body.
Yang Kai’s complexion changed drastically, and he quickly circulated his True Yuan.
But as soon as the True Yuan moved, his meridians felt extremely painful, as if being gnawed by hundreds of millions of ants, and his whole body trembled. The power that had just been condensed instantly collapsed.
Elder Duan, what does this mean?” Yang Kai showed no sign of panic on his face. He looked at Duan Hai with a cold expression while checking his own condition.”
Duan Hai shook his head disappointedly, and there was still a hint of hesitation on his face. He said loudly, “I’m sorry, Guest Qing Yang. In fact, I don’t want to do this either. A Spirit-level Alchemist like you at your age is also a huge asset to my Divine Sect. Unfortunately, you have no intention of joining my Divine Sect. I believe that no matter how hard I try, I won’t be able to win you over.”
Hehe.” Yang Kai laughed. “Elder Duan, I haven’t done anything to harm the Thunderbolt Divine Sect, have I?
You really haven’t. As I said, I have no choice but to do this.” Duan Hai shook his head heavily.”
Yang Kai’s eyes flickered. Although he didn’t understand the reason, it was a fact that he had fallen into someone else’s trap.
The reason why he came to the Thunderbolt Divine Sect was entirely because of Old Du. So in this matter, did Old Du get involved?
Thinking like this, Yang Kai turned his gaze to the screen behind Duan Hai and said coldly, “Can this friend come out and meet? There’s no point in hiding your head and showing your tail.”
He felt vaguely that Duan Hai’s sudden change of attitude had a great deal to do with the person hiding behind the screen.
Xu Qi was shocked when he heard this. He didn’t expect the other party’s intuition to be so sharp. After thinking about it, he also appeared openly and aboveboard.
After seeing Xu Qi’s face clearly, Yang Kai suddenly understood.
This person, he had seen before.
Back then outside the Blazing Fire City of the Duao League, among the group of people chasing the Coffin Carrier, his figure was there.
No wonder he felt that the name of the Lei Guang Divine Cult was somewhat familiar. It turned out that he had heard Yun Xuan introduce it before.
At this moment, Yang Kai suddenly saw the light.
The root of everything was all on the Coffin Carrier.
“So that’s how it is!” Yang Kai couldn’t help but smile bitterly. The Tong Xuan Continent was so big. He didn’t expect that just after coming out of the Little Profound Realm, he would be targeted by someone.
Back then in the Blazing Fire City, there were only a few people who witnessed the scene of him being captured by the Coffin Carrier. Who could have imagined that such a thing would happen today?
Even if Yang Kai was more vigilant, he couldn’t avoid such a situation.
“Hmm, it’s good to let Guest Elder Yang know that what you have been hit with is my unique seal spell. Don’t try to break it. The more you use your True Yuan, the more uncomfortable you will feel.” Duan Hai looked at Yang Kai with some regret and said, “I don’t want to make things difficult for you either. As long as you cooperate obediently, I guarantee that I won’t do you any harm!”
Yang Kai sneered and said, “Elder Duan, aren’t you afraid that when Elder Du finds out the news, he will hold you accountable?”
Duan Hai shook his head. “Although Elder Du thinks highly of you, if he asks, I naturally have an explanation. There is no need for Young Master Yang to worry about this.”
Yang Kai’s heart settled, knowing that Elder Du should have no idea about this matter, and couldn’t help but feel a little relieved.
If even Elder Du had calculated him, then Yang Kai could only say that he was too stupid.
Feeling the cultivation bases of Duan Hai and Xu Qi, Yang Kai endured his temper and did not act blindly.
Both of these two people were at the Transcendent Two-layer Realm. Even if he used all his strength, it was impossible to escape from their hands. Moreover, this was the main altar of the Thunderbolt Divine Sect, with countless experts. He had also been hit by the seal incantation that sealed his True Yuan. Acting blindly would only make the situation worse.
“May I ask why Elder Duan didn’t take action against me until today? You could have done it when I came here.” Yang Kai made up his mind to stall for time and see if there was any chance of escape.
Duan Hai said helplessly, “As I said, I am very optimistic about you and don’t want to take action against you. Moreover, Elder Du also told me that you have a very tough background. However, after these two months of observation and investigation, I found that you will leave sooner or later, and you are not as Elder Du said. You are just a brat from a backcountry.”
“So Elder Duan became fearless?” Yang Kai looked at him sarcastically.
Duan Hai neither affirmed nor denied: “Guest Elder Yang, I won’t beat around the bush with you. The reason I’m doing this is that I want to know the secrets of the Coffin Carrier. What exactly happened after you were captured by him, how did you escape from his hands, and where is he hiding? If Guest Elder Yang can tell me these things, I can let you go.”
“I don’t know either.” Yang Kai chuckled. Yang Kai had also done things like killing people to silence them, so naturally, he wouldn’t easily believe Duan Hai. Since he dared to do it, he would do it thoroughly. As long as he kept this secret and didn’t say it, he wouldn’t really do anything to himself. But if he said it out, Yang Kai was sure that he would be a corpse the next moment.
“Senior Brother, don’t waste words with him. He’s just a brat at the peak of the Divine Movement Realm. Let me use the Soul Searching Technique to dig out the secrets from his sea of consciousness.” Xu Qi walked over and said coldly.
Duan Hai sighed: “Guest Elder Yang, you can also see that my junior brother here doesn’t have as good a temper as I do. He’s relatively impatient. If you don’t want to become an idiot because of the Soul Searching Technique, you might as well cooperate with me obediently.”
These two people, one playing the good cop and the other playing the bad cop, just wanted to break through Yang Kai’s psychological defense line with words and make him obediently submit. Their intentions were extremely sinister.
