Chapter 2308
byFor the next half a day, Ghost Ancestor and the others also asked about what happened to Yang Kai after he entered the Star Boundary.
Yang Kai didn’t hide much and told his experiences in detail. Ghost Ancestor and the others listened nervously. Even though they knew that Yang Kai would turn the corner in various crises, they still couldn’t help but sweat for him.
Everyone then discovered that Yang Kai’s experiences in these few years were much more abundant and dangerous than theirs. However, Yang Kai’s growth was faster and he had gone further, which made several people feel a little ashamed and gave birth to a feeling of a hero in his old age for no reason.
Half a day later, everyone dispersed and went to their respective rooms to rest and recuperate.
Yang Kai went to look for Ye Jinghan and asked her to help find several kinds of medicinal materials.
Refining that kind of coagulation pill was not too difficult. Yang Kai just didn’t have the materials in hand. Otherwise, he could have started refining in this building ship. Several kinds of medicinal materials were not too difficult to find. Naturally, Yang Kai could rest assured and leave it to Ye Jinghan to deal with.
For such a small matter, she agreed without hesitation and immediately sent a message back to the sect.
The building ship continued to move forward. In just two days, it had entered the hinterland of Thousand Leaves Mountain.
At a certain moment, Yang Kai, who was meditating, suddenly felt the ship’s body shake. Immediately after, the buzzing sound came up and the building ship slowly stopped.
He opened his eyes and realized that they should have arrived at the destination. Just as this thought came to mind, there was a knock on the door, and then Ye Jinghan’s voice rang out: “Young Master Yang, we’re here.”
Yang Kai got up and opened the door, smiling slightly at Ye Jinghan and motioning for her to lead the way ahead.
Not long after, the two came to the deck. Ghost Ancestor and the others, as well as the disciples of Thousand Leaves Sect, had already gathered, and it seemed that only he was missing.
After seeing him come out, Ghost Ancestor and the others also looked towards him one after another, with smiles on their faces.
“Daddy!” Ye Jinghan suddenly let out a coquettish cry, jumped off the building ship, and threw herself into the arms of an old man, hugging him tightly and looking up and saying, “Why did you come out?”
That old man looked to be of advanced age. He had white hair, and although his spirit was still not bad, his qi and blood power had obviously begun to decline. In other words, he had already started to go downhill in martial arts. As time passed, his cultivation would become lower and lower, and his qi and blood power would also become weaker and weaker. If he couldn’t promote to Emperor Venerable, he would fall within ten years.
And the old man’s face had some similarities in charm with Ye Jinghan.
Yang Kai immediately understood that this old man was the Sect Master of Thousand Leaves Sect, Ye Hen, and also Ye Jinghan’s father.
Ye Hen smiled and gently patted Ye Jinghan’s shoulder, saying, “There are distinguished guests coming, of course I have to come out to greet them. As for you, you are not a child anymore and still play these tricks with your father. It will make the honored guests laugh at you.”
Ye Jinghan wrinkled her nose and said, “Who said I’m not a child anymore? I haven’t even gotten married yet.”
Ye Hen laughed heartily and said, “I’ll marry you off tomorrow.”
Ye Jinghan pouted and said, “How dare you!”
While speaking, Du Xian and the others also flew down from the building ship and came to Ye Hen. They saluted solemnly and said, “Greetings to the Sect Master.”
Ye Hen nodded and said, “You have worked hard.”
Du Xian said, “The Sect Master is too kind. It is our duty to do things for the sect. We dare not take credit.”
Ye Hen nodded in satisfaction and then turned his gaze to Yang Kai and the others. His gaze turned slightly and then fixed on Yang Kai. He smiled and saluted, saying, “This should be Master Yang, right? Indeed, young and outstanding.”
He obviously had already obtained a lot of information from Ye Jinghan’s side and also knew what Ye Jinghan brought Yang Kai to Thousand Leaves Sect for. So when he said these words, he was obviously a little excited, but he suppressed it very well and no one could see it.
Yang Kai saluted and said, “Junior Yang Kai, greetings to Sect Master Ye!”
When dealing with the elderly and the elders, he always showed due respect and would never look down on them because of the improvement of his strength.
“Master Yang has traveled all the way here without hesitation despite the hardships. Ye is extremely grateful.” Ye Hen said in a deep voice.
Du Xian and the others were taken aback when they heard this. They didn’t know what the Sect Master was grateful for and all thought that Ye Hen had made a slip of the tongue for a moment. Suddenly, their expressions became strange.
Ye Jinghan didn’t tell them the real purpose of Yang Kai’s trip. Naturally, they didn’t understand.
It wasn’t that Ye Jinghan didn’t trust these people. It was just that this matter was related to the future rise and fall of the Thousand Leaves Sect. The fewer people who knew, the better.
“Sect Master Ye is too polite.” Yang Kai exchanged greetings and his gaze moved slightly, turning to another old man beside Ye Hen. He asked doubtfully, “This senior is…”
This old man was wearing black clothes and had been standing beside Ye Hen, not saying a word. His gaze was sharp and his cultivation was also at the Third-Order Dao Source Realm level. He seemed not much worse than Ye Hen. The origin force in his body was vigorous and pure. When Yang Kai was talking to Ye Hen, this old man had been indifferent and had no intention of interrupting or greeting Yang Kai.
However, in Yang Kai’s opinion, since this person had the cultivation of the Third-Order Dao Source Realm and was standing with Ye Hen, his status should not be low. Out of courtesy, he naturally had to ask.
Ye Hen frowned slightly, but quickly smiled and introduced, “This is…”
“I am Shi Cangying, the deputy sect master of Thousand Leaves Sect!” The old man in black directly interrupted Ye Hen’s words and looked at Yang Kai with a gloomy gaze.
Yang Kai’s brows furrowed, and he instinctively felt that this old man harbored some hostility and exclusion towards him. This made him couldn’t help but carefully look at the other party again, and was sure that he had never seen this person before and had never dealt with him. For a while, he was suspicious and not in his heart, not knowing where he had offended him.
Ye Hen was smoothing things over on the side and said: “Vice Sect Master Shi is a pillar of our sect. Thanks to his help over the years, Thousand Leaves Sect has been able to barely hold on.”
“So it’s Vice Sect Master Shi. I was rude, junior.” Yang Kai didn’t really care too much and smiled and clasped his fists.
However, Shi Cangying didn’t give any face at all. Hearing this, he just snorted heavily, turned his head and looked at Ye Hen and said: “Sect Master, I originally thought that the young talent you went out of your way to welcome must be some extraordinary one, but now it seems that he is just a mere brat. What ability does he have to make you go to such lengths? Sect Master, you are getting old and muddled.”
These words not only belittled Yang Kai to nothing, but even scolded Ye Hen.
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became depressing and although several disciples of Thousand Leaves Sect looked angry, they didn’t dare to say a word.
Ye Hen’s face was also full of embarrassment. Obviously, he didn’t expect Shi Cangying to be so ungracious. He said these words in front of Yang Kai, making it impossible for people to get off the stage.
Shi Cangying added, “Moreover, these people made a big fuss in the City Lord’s Mansion just a couple of days ago. Not only did they offend City Lord Luo, but also many guests. I heard that even Lord Ke of the Tianji Hall was beaten to death by them, and even Young Palace Master Qiu of the Tianzhao Palace was seriously injured! Such violent criminals, if they enter our Qianye Sect, it will be terrible!”
Ye Hen frowned and said, “Brother Shi, things are not as you said. There are some reasons…”
Shi Cangying said, “I know the whole story clearly. There is no need for the Sect Master to explain. City Lord Luo just took a concubine. What crime did he commit that he was humiliated in front of so many guests! Sect Master, if you let these people into the sect, it will be like leading a wolf into the house! At that time, the Tianhe City, the Tianji Hall, and the Tianzhao Palace will surely not let it go, and our Qianye Sect will not be able to resist!”
As soon as these words came out, Ye Hen’s complexion changed slightly, and obviously he was also extremely afraid of these forces.
Over there, the Ghost Ancestor gave a strange and eerie laugh, with black qi coiling around his body. His eyes, like ghostly fires, were fixed on Shi Cangying as he said, “From what my friend said, it seems we were in the wrong? Luo Jin wanted to take my fifth sister as a concubine, and we were supposed to cooperate obediently and not feel ashamed but rather proud?”
Shi Cangying looked at him coldly and said, Strength represents everything. Your cultivation is just so-so. It’s your good fortune to rely on the City Lord’s Mansion). But you don’t know how to cherish this good fortune and instead court disaster and bring trouble upon yourselves. It’s truly ridiculous.”
The old bastard is talking nonsense!” Chi Yue’s face turned red with anger. She gritted her teeth and cursed, then shouted in a shrill voice, “Why don’t you marry your wife and daughter to that old dog and rely on his big tree instead of using others to make an issue.”
Upon hearing this, Shi Cangying’s expression turned angry, and the source power within his body suddenly surged. As a martial artist at the first level of the Dao Source Realm, Chi Yue dared to speak to him like this, and naturally, he couldn’t bear it and couldn’t help but want to take action and teach her a lesson.”
However, before he could activate his power, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes full of teasing (mockery) staring at him. Under the gaze of those eyes Shi Cangying somehow (inexplicably) shivered with cold and had a feeling that if he made a move his end would definitely be very miserable.”
He turned his head and looked over there, just in time to see Yang Kai looking at him with a smile.”
Shi Cangying furrowed his brows and didn’t dare to act rashly. With an arrogant expression on his face, he said, “I am a powerhouse at the third level of the Dao Source Realm. I don’t have to act according to Luo Jin’s face. If you also have such cultivation, naturally you can be like me.”
By this time, Yang Kai also understood why, just upon first meeting, this Shi Cangying had a sense of hostility and exclusion towards himself and others.
He was clearly afraid of bringing trouble upon himself.
After all, just two days ago, he had caused a huge ruckus in the City Lord’s Mansion of Tianhe City, offending many forces and killing many people. Among them, there were several forces that the Thousand Leaves Sect was extremely afraid of. Especially the Heavenly Pole Palace and the Amaterasu Palace, both had powerful experts sitting in town.
With Shi Cangying’s personality, what he was really afraid of was not that Yang Kai and others would bring disaster to the Thousand Leaves Sect, but that he himself would be implicated. So as soon as he came up, he was very rude to Yang Kai and others, and had the intention of immediately driving them away and not letting them have the slightest connection with the Thousand Leaves Sect.
That’s why he didn’t care at all that Ye Hen was here and didn’t give Yang Kai and others any face.
“What the old sir said is very reasonable!” Yang Kai suddenly said with a smile.
“Brat!” Chi Yue’s pretty face sank, and she glared at Yang Kai. She also didn’t expect that at this time, not only did Yang Kai not speak up for herself, but he even spoke in agreement with that obnoxious old bastard. This made it really hard for her to accept.
Yang Kai winked at her and smiled, “Strength is king, and the strong are respected. Whoever has the bigger fist can speak. This is an eternal truth no matter when or where. Isn’t it?”
Shi Cangying sneered, “You’re just a brat, but you can see things so clearly. Well, very good.”
