Chapter 1016
byIn the Abyss of Chaos, Shentu and Biya nervously looked into the open spatial crack, hoping to see Yang Kai’s figure.
But they couldn’t see anything inside. The crack, which was burning with demonic flames, had already begun to close, and there was still no sign of anyone escaping.
It seemed that Yang Kai and the others were going to be trapped inside forever！
Could something have happened?
He turned his head and looked at Biya, hoping that she would confirm his statement.
I don’t know… Biya shook her head. Her mood was also very complicated. But I hope he’s okay！
If Yang Kai didn’t return and was swallowed by the spatial rift, the brand on her soul that was controlled by Yang Kai would disappear. Once the brand disappeared, she would surely die！
Naturally, she didn’t want anything to happen to Yang Kai.
He’s out！ Shentu suddenly shouted in a low voice and rushed forward. He saw a figure flashing in the almost closed crack and rushing out.
It was Ghost Ancestor！
Seeing his face, Shentu shouted unhappily： Why is it you? Where’s Brother Yang?
Behind！ Ghost Ancestor turned his head and looked back. Right behind him, He Zao and He Miao, the two sisters, escaped. And then came Yang Kai and Yue Xi.
As soon as Yang Kai left, the space crack that was burning with demonic flames closed up again and disappeared without a trace.
Hahaha, I knew that Brother Yang you have great fortune and won’t have any accidents.” Shen Tu laughed heartily, sincerely happy for Yang Kai. As he spoke like this, his expression suddenly became strange, and he looked at him with great interest, chuckling, as if he had discovered something, with a lecherous expression on his face.”
The gazes of the others also gathered over, and their expressions all became strange.
Yang Kai was currently holding onto Yue Xi’s waist. Yue Xi actually didn’t resist at all, her neck was red, and there was an unnatural expression on her pretty face.
He Miao couldn’t help but cover her small mouth and widened her beautiful eyes. Looking at this incredible scene, she didn’t know what exactly happened between her master and Yang Kai after she and her sister left, that they actually became so intimate all of a sudden.
What made her feel the most incredible was that her master actually didn’t have any intention of resisting.
She had never allowed any man to get within three zhang of her. Let alone being held by someone, this was a first time ever. If the various stars of the Sword League, those admirers of her master, knew about this scene, they would definitely come and fight Yang Kai to the death.
He Zao couldn’t help but cough lightly, not knowing what to say to remind her master.
Being stared at by those gazes, Yue Xi’s expression became even more unnatural, and she wished she could drill back into that spatial crack and never come out again.
Yang Kai, however, remained silent and let go of her without a trace. Then his figure flickered and suddenly escaped a hundred zhang away, staring coldly and vigilantly at Ghost Ancestor. His strength was hidden and not released, ready to tear open the space and escape at any time.
The ambiguous atmosphere was instantly broken, and everyone’s expression became solemn. Everyone’s gaze looked towards Ghost Ancestor, looking like they were facing a formidable enemy.
Now that everyone has left the Xuankong Continent and successfully arrived at the Chaos Abyss, Ghost Ancestor has also achieved his long-cherished wish for two thousand years. If he suddenly attacks everyone at this time, except for Yang Kai who has a glimmer of hope of survival, no one else has a chance to live.
In the vast star field, there are countless stars.It is quiet, but the atmosphere lingering around everyone is rather oppressive and tense.
Ghost Ancestor smiled lightly, and a pair of gloomy eyes stared at Yang Kai a hundred feet away without blinking for a moment. No one knew what he was thinking.
Intense heartbeats came out from everyone’s chests, as powerful and dense as drumbeats.
“Lad, what are you afraid of？” Ghost Ancestor asked.
Yang Kai’s mouth twitched, and he said frankly： “Afraid that senior will break his promise and go back on his word！”
“Is this old man so untrustworthy？” The Ghost Ancestor snorted coldly. “Just because of your words, this old man can make you die a dozen times！ Don’t think that just because you can tear open space, you can escape the palm of this old man’s hand. Your strength is too weak. Before you make a move, I can stop you！”
“I believe that senior has this strength, but if you really make a move, this junior will not just sit and wait for death！” Yang Kai’s expression was solemn.
“Ghost Ancestor senior, considering that Brother Yang fulfilled his promise and successfully brought you out from there, you…” Shen Tu tried to persuade him with good words. Before he could finish speaking, the Ghost Ancestor coldly stared at him. Shen Tu’s expression instantly turned painful, and he clutched his head and let out a miserable howl.
Yang Kai’s expression changed slightly.
“Senior…” Yue Xi shouted softly.
The Ghost Ancestor looked at her again. Yue Xi’s face suddenly turned pale, and like Shen Tu, she screamed in pain.
“This old man is the Ghost Ancestor. This old man has never been a trustworthy person. Believing in me is your biggest mistake！” The Ghost Ancestor snorted lightly.
His body suddenly became blurred. Yang Kai’s heart immediately gave birth to a sense of danger. He quickly circulated his strength. But before he could tear open space, a gloomy aura invaded his body, making him unable to move.
The disappeared Ghost Ancestor appeared in front of him, looking at him with contempt.
“Well, I did plan to kill you after you took me away from that continent. The reason is clear to you. Because you have never really wanted to cooperate with me wholeheartedly.” The Ghost Ancestor sneered. “Do you think I don’t know what you are planning？ If it weren’t for my strength being above yours, any warrior in the Saint King Realm or even the Return to Void Realm would probably have been killed by you！”
Yang Kai remained silent because what the Ghost Ancestor said was the truth.
It was precisely because his strength was too high that all of Yang Kai’s various ideas could not be realized.
“Half a cup of tea ago, I still had such a plan.” The Ghost Ancestor’s expression suddenly changed and became strange. “But now, I have changed my mind. After all, you have risked your life to save me, although that was not your original intention and it was just a matter of convenience when you went to rescue those little girls. But if I really killed you, it would seem too ungrateful and would also make people laugh if it got out.”
“I don’t like to owe others favors. You brought me out and saved me, giving me a chance to take revenge, so I will spare your life！”
Yang Kai’s eyes suddenly lit up, looking at the Ghost Ancestor in surprise.
“Surprised？ Do you think I should be a person without humanity？”
Yang Kai frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, “Junior didn’t think so. Since senior can always keep in mind the grudges from two thousand years ago, presumably senior’s humanity is not lost. Maybe two thousand years ago, senior was still a good person！”
“Hahaha！” The Ghost Ancestor laughed heartily. “A good person？ Well, indeed, I was a good person back then. But after two thousand years of lonely life, any good-natured person’s temperament will change.”
“Lad, do you want to follow me?” The Ghost Ancestor shouted in a low voice, looking at Yang Kai with burning eyes. “I think you’re quite pleasing to the eye. If you follow me, I guarantee that no one in the entire star field will dare to make things difficult for you even if you walk sideways. I can also teach you to cultivate and let you reach the Void Return Jing level in the shortest possible time. With your qualifications, I’m afraid it won’t take a hundred years!
Yang Kai didn’t even think about it and shook his head, saying, “I appreciate the senior’s kindness, but I don’t want to live such a life.”
“You reject me？” The Ghost Ancestor looked at Yang Kai in surprise. “You dare to reject me？ Do you look down on me？”
His expression suddenly became ferocious and violent, as if he would kill Yang Kai immediately if his answer was not satisfactory.
Yang Kai remained calm and smiled. “Senior is joking. You are a powerful Void King Jing star master-level expert. Presumably, anyone would hope to rely on your protection. I admire you too much to look down on you.”
“Then why did you reject？”
Yang Kai furrowed his brows, pondered for a moment and said, “Junior doesn’t want to be a flower growing in a greenhouse. That would be too delicate and couldn’t withstand any wind and rain. I believe what senior said. With your guidance, within a hundred years, I can reach the Void Returning Realm. But… perhaps growing up in such an environment, the Void Returning Realm would be my limit. I want to pursue a higher realm, a realm like senior’s… That requires sharpening and killing!
The expression on Ghost Ancestor’s face, which was originally displeased, suddenly changed. He looked at Yang Kai approvingly and nodded slightly, “What you said makes some sense. Then I won’t force you anymore. If you figure it out one day, you can come to me at any time. My name will soon resound throughout the star field, and it won’t be too difficult for you to find me then.”
“Then junior wishes senior to avenge his great hatred and settle the thousand-year-old grudge first！” Yang Kai clasped his fists.
This sentence hit the spot in Ghost Ancestor’s heart. His expression was pleasure, and he chuckled “The kid can talk. The more I look at you, the more pleasing you are. Forget it, take this thing. I don’t have much use for this either. Consider it a thank-you gift for saving my life!
As he spoke like this, he flicked his hand casually, and a black thing suddenly flew towards Yang Kai.
Yang Kai caught it and took a closer look. He found that this was actually a token-like thing and there was a big character engraved on the token-the character for Emperor!
A terrifyingly oppressive aura emanated from the large character, making Yang Kai almost unable to breathe.
“Star Gate Token？” Yang Kai exclaimed involuntarily.
He still remembered that this token was found by the Ghost Ancestor from Yue Xi’s Space Ring. When this token appeared, Yue Xi, Lv Guichen, and the others all changed their complexions.
He also realized that this Star Gate Token was an extremely good thing and was coveted by everyone.
“Senior, this thing…”
“You don’t know its use？” the Ghost Ancestor asked.
Yang Kai shook his head.
“Hmm, coming from a lower-level continent, you really wouldn’t know. The Star Gate Token, also known as the Star Emperor Token, is the token of the Star Field Great Emperor！”
“Star Field Great Emperor？” Yang Kai’s eyes shone with curiosity.
“He is just a legend. Legend has it that the entire star field was once controlled by one person, and this person is the Star Field Great Emperor！ His cultivation base is heaven-defying and peerless. Even I might not be as good as him！ When he controlled the star field, he once made ten Star Emperor Tokens. Each Star Emperor Token seals one of his magical powers, a magical power that can destroy a star！”
Yang Kai’s complexion changed drastically, and his eyes almost popped out. Only then did he realize why Lv Guichen, Yue Xi, and the others were vying for this Star Emperor Token, and he completely understood the preciousness of this Star Emperor Token.
