Chapter 924
byIn the palace of the charming queen, the Flash Shadow King proudly raised his head, looking unyielding to the death.
Yang Kai glanced at him indifferently and waved his hand, saying, “Get lost. I’m not interested in killing you.”
The Shadow King looked at Yang Kai in surprise, seemingly not expecting that he would be willing to let him go.
Over the years, the reason why he had hidden his identity and was willing to be a beggar was because he was afraid that the experts in Zhongdu would come to trouble him. Now that he had accidentally fallen into Yang Kai’s hands, there was actually still a glimmer of hope for survival？
“Hurry up and get lost!” Yang Kai shouted sternly.
The Shadow King gritted his teeth, the blue veins on his forehead bulging. He, the dignified Shadow King, had lived in hiding, endured the humiliation and the scorn of the world. Now, this young man in front of him was shouting at him casually, not taking him seriously at all. This made him very indignant in his heart.
He looked as if he was going to fight Yang Kai to the death.
Finally, he managed to hold it back and said coldly, “Shan Qingluo went to the Spider Mother’s lair before she left. She seemed to have discovered something there. If you want to find her, there might be some clues there.”
After saying that, the Shadow King left like a flash of lightning.
“The Spider Mother’s lair…” Yang Kai muttered to himself. Naturally, he clearly remembered this place. There lived a Rank 7 Monster Beast that could communicate with people using spiritual thoughts – the Spider Mother.
It was also the only Rank 7 Monster Beast in the entire world.
Shan Qingluo’s Poison Widow constitution originated from it, and the love poison in her body was resolved by the Spider Mother’s Inner Core.
“Young Master Yang…” Yun Li called out softly, “Are you going to look for Her Majesty？”
“Let’s go and take a look. She may not still be there. Well, she should have left long ago.”
“Oh, then Young Master Yang, be careful on the way.” Yun Li and Ruo Yu Ruo Qing nodded slightly and didn’t try to keep him.
Yang Kai looked at them and suddenly said, “Your mistress is no longer here. Why are you still staying here？”
Yun Li smiled and said disappointedly, “Then where else can we go？ Staying here at least there is a place to live. But if we go to other places, with our appearance and strength, what will happen to us outside, Young Master Yang should be clear.”
These three women, one big and two small, all have a good appearance. They don’t have much strength themselves. If they really lose the shelter of this place and go outside, they will only become the playthings of men.
“I’ll take you away. Will you go？” Yang Kai had a sudden idea.
Yun Li’s eyes lit up. She looked at Ruo Yu and Ruo Qing and nodded together, “Okay. If Young Master Yang can reunite with Her Majesty the Queen in the future, we can continue to serve Her Majesty the Queen.”
“Then you pack up and I’ll come back as soon as possible. By the way, ask the others in the palace if they want to go. I remember there are two maids, right？” Yang Kai gave an order, and Yun Li quickly responded.
Half an hour later, the lair of the Spider Mother.
Yang Kai stood in the air and overlooked the huge spider statue below.
He had never thought carefully before how this huge spider statue came about. After more than ten years, when he came here again, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
There were countless huge spiders here before, and the Spider Mother also lived here. But after all, they are monsters and beasts, and it is impossible for them to build such a statue.
Moreover, this statue is ancient and vicissitudes. At a glance, it is something with a long history. Yang Kai estimates that it has at least a history of thousands or tens of thousands of years.
At this moment, there was no life in the lair of the Spider Mother. After the death of the Spider Mother, the huge spiders that originally lived here had all disappeared without a trace. When Yang Kai arrived, he didn’t see a single living creature at all.
His figure descended, and he came to the front of that statue. He entered through the mouth of that huge spider.
Inside the statue, there was a huge space. Everywhere was filled with viscous spider silk, and the ground was also covered with a thick layer of dust. Obviously, no one had come in here for many years.
Yang Kai looked around, and suddenly his expression froze. His eyes looked in one direction. There, there was something in the shape of an altar. The gullies on it crisscrossed, seemingly forming a strange array diagram. At this moment, there were some dark things in that array diagram.
Yang Kai could tell at a glance that those dark things were the products left after the blood had coagulated and dried up.
The altar was not big. At most, it could accommodate two or three people standing on it. Yang Kai concentrated his gaze and could clearly see that there were two pairs of different shoe prints on the altar. Because they had stepped on the blood, they had left indelible marks.
Were they the shoe prints left by Shan Qingluo and Bi Luo？
Yang Kai didn’t know, but he could sense an aura of void from this altar. Although it was very faint, it couldn’t escape his perception.
The altar had already been damaged. There were many densely cracks remaining on it. Yang Kai reached out to touch it but unexpectedly, it couldn’t even withstand this little force and directly collapsed.
Staring blankly at everything in front of him, Yang Kai’s emotions fluctuated.
There was a strange array pattern on the altar, and there was also the remaining aura of the power of Void. It was not difficult to infer that a Void Tunnel had appeared here before.
If those two pairs of blood-stained shoe prints were really left by Shan Qingluo and Bi Luo, then they must have left this world through the Void Tunnel.
Where would they go？
When he separated from that demoness back then, she was only at the First-Order Transcendent Realm! Such strength was nothing at all on the Tong Xuan Continent.
After investigating for a while longer and still unable to find any useful clues, he had to leave that huge spider statue and press his palm into the void.
Shielding the Heavens Hand！
A huge palm print descended from the sky and slapped on that spider statue. Rocks rolled down, the statue shattered, and in the flying dust, it was forever buried underground.
Yang Kai’s mood was subtly complicated.
This time when he left Zhongdu, he went to a total of two places. He wanted to bring two groups of people to the Tong Xuan Continent, but he didn’t expect that Xiao Fusheng of the Medicine King Valley had already passed away, and Aunt Xiang and Aunt Lan voluntarily stayed to accompany his cenotaph. Moreover, Shan Qingluo of the Fragrant Cloud City was also nowhere to be found and there was no news of her.
None of the things he had planned had been achieved.
Helplessly returning to the palace in Piaoxiang City, Yunli and several maids were already prepared. Besides Ruoyu and Ruoqing, there were indeed two other maids staying in the palace. Yang Kai took them all and flew towards Zhongdu.
Half a day later, he returned to the Yang family.
Seeing that Yang Kai brought back five beautiful women, Lirong and Hanfei’s expressions immediately became strange.
Yang Kai didn’t bother to explain to them. He just said a word to Fourth Master Yang, asking him to arrange for Yunli and the others. In the future, before Shan Qingluo appeared, these five women would stay in the Yang family as maids.
Fourth Master Yang readily agreed.
“Yang Kai！”
“Cousin！”
Two calls came from the side. Yang Kai turned his head and looked, only to find that Dong Qinghan and Dong Qingyan, the brother and sister, were running towards him not far away.
Dong the Fatty wasn’t fat anymore. As if he had lost dozens of catties of meat, he became tall and mighty, and his appearance was impressive.
His cousin Dong Qingyan had grown even more graceful. The places that should be big were big, and the places that should be small were small. She looked quite pleasing to the eye.
Yang Kai’s eyes lit up and he grinned and smiled.
When he came back a few days ago, he met many old friends, but he didn’t see the Dong family. It was not until today that these two cousins appeared in front of him.
Dong Qingyan rushed over, her beautiful eyes looking up and down at Yang Kai, and said with a smile： “Cousin, after more than ten years, you have become much more handsome.”
“Such a sweet little mouth.” Yang Kai was greatly satisfied. Who knew that Dong Qingyan was giggling mischievously and reached out her small hand to Yang Kai： “Then does big brother have any rewards？”
Yang Kai was stunned.
Fatty Dong was smiling and looking at Yang Kai, with a gloating expression on his face.
“Here, take this.” Yang Kai casually took out a crystal stone and handed it to Dong Qingyan. He said seriously： “Cherish this well. It’s a precious treasure. It contains huge energy and can be directly absorbed and converted into true essence. It’s very beneficial for both restoration and cultivation.”
Dong Qingyan’s eyes shone with light. She tightly held that crystal stone with both hands and continuously praised： “This thing is so clear and beautiful. It’s like a huge precious stone. Is this really for me？”
“Once a thing is given away, there’s no reason to take it back.”
“Thank you, big brother！” Dong Qingyan was extremely happy. She carefully put that crystal stone into her purse, with a contented expression on her face.
Li Rong and Han Fei were standing aside. They couldn’t bear to see this little girl being deceived by Yang Kai like this, but they were also too embarrassed to explicitly say that that crystal stone was not a precious item at all. They both slowly shook their heads and laughed dumbfoundedly.
“Little sister, go play aside. I have something to talk to Yang Kai about.” Dong Qinghan winked at Dong Qingyan.
“So mysterious. It must not be anything good.” Dong Qingyan snorted and disappeared in a flash.
With only the two cousins left, Dong Qinghan put on a serious expression and asked in a low voice, “I heard that you are going to take the Yang family to a place called Tongxuan Continent.”
“Yes. How is your Dong family going to arrange？ My father and mother should have sent you a message, right？”
“It was precisely because of receiving the message from my aunt and uncle that I rushed over in a hurry. The Dong family is also packing up now, ready to advance and retreat with your Yang family.” Dong Qinghan’s expression was solemn, and he asked in a deep voice, “But is this matter reliable？”
“If it wasn’t reliable, would I let the whole family follow me？ I’m not that planless either.” Yang Kai raised his eyebrows and said.
“I naturally know this, but… suddenly having to leave one’s hometown and go to an unknown place inevitably makes people feel a little panicked…”
“You’ll get used to it slowly.” Yang Kai comforted, “When I went there back then, I was also completely confused, but there are more wonderful things and more opportunities over there, which are suitable for young people.”
“Hahaha！” Dong Qinghan laughed loudly, “I was just asking casually, but since Qiu Yimeng has chosen to go with you, then this matter must not be bad. To put it bluntly, I trust the vision of that young miss Qiu even more.”
Yang Kai was speechless.
“When are you Yang family going to set off？”
“As soon as possible. The journey is too far. Starting from here and reaching the destination, it will take at least three to four months at the shortest. If there are any delays on the way, the time will only be longer.”
“So long？” Dong Qinghan’s face changed.
“The vastness of the Tongxuan Continent far exceeds your imagination. In this case, your Dong family doesn’t have to come to Zhongdu to join with the Yang family. You send a message back and let them go to the Lingxiao Pavilion after they have packed up. I will lead the people of the Yang family to pass by there.”
“Okay.” Dong Qinghan nodded seriously. “I will arrange it right away.”
