Chapter 1104
byYang Kai waited outside for a while, constantly thinking about how to resolve the awkwardness between him and Yang Yan.
He was a man with a thick skin and could not care about that kind of thing. He could just laugh it off but Yang Yan was different. She was clearly that kind of inexperienced woman and might never have been so intimate with any man before.
Unlike Xue Yue, even if Xue Yue was naked and held by him, she could still remain calm, negotiate terms with him, and look for a glimmer of hope for survival. They were two women with different personalities.
What if Yang Yan is too embarrassed to see him again because of this incident, or runs away in a fit of anger？
The materials are lost, and Yang Kai doesn’t feel bad about it. But Yang Yan can’t be lost. She is a rare talent. He has only been on You’an Star for a short time and doesn’t know many people. If he really wants to use this place as a springboard to spread his name throughout the star field, relying solely on force won’t do. He must gather some rare talents to serve as his reserve force.
Should he go and apologize, and then say some sweet nothings or something？ Yang Kai is hesitant. Yang Yan is simple. A few sweet words will probably make her let go of the grudges in her heart. But Yang Kai is also afraid that this girl will misunderstand something. It will be bad if he hurts her heart at that time.
So worried！ Yang Kai scratched his head.
Just when he was extremely troubled, Yang Yan, who had washed her body and was wearing a black robe suddenly ran out of the cave and rushed straight towards him.
“Yang Kai, Yang Kai… Come with me！” There was an unknown expression on Yang Yan’s face, as if she was a little excited and a little nervous. She rushed to Yang Kai’s side, grabbed his hand, and dragged him into the cave in a hurry.
“What’s wrong?” ” Yang Kai was stunned. He didn’t expect that Yang Yan didn’t mention what happened just now. This was really unexpected. He even thought that Yang Yan would hide in the cave for several days and not see him.
“I seem to have discovered something. Come and take a look.” She couldn’t explain clearly and kept pulling Yang Kai into the cave, arriving at the position where the two of them were just now. Pointing to the small hole on the ground, she said, “Did you see anything here just now？ Did you see clearly what that thing was that scared me？”
Seeing her staring at the small hole with wide beautiful eyes and even probing her spiritual consciousness in, as if she wanted to find out, Yang Kai’s heart moved： “Do you recognize it？”
If Yang Yan didn’t recognize it, she wouldn’t have had these reactions.
“I may recognize it！” Yang Yan nodded. “But it may not be what I think. Can you track the position of that creature through this small hole? If I can catch it, I can study it carefully.”
“What do you think that thing is？” Yang Kai asked hurriedly.
Yang Yan shook her head, her beautiful eyebrows slightly furrowed： “Before I see it clearly, I don’t dare to be sure. I just caught a glimpse of it just now. Later, when I thought about it carefully, I felt that it was a bit like that. Can you track it or not?”
“There’s no need to track it anymore.”
“Don’t！” Yang Yan misunderstood Yang Kai’s meaning a bit, grabbed his arm and shook it, pleading： “Help me track it. I’m really curious about it. If you can help me track it, I… I…” Yang Yan’s small face turned red again as she spoke, as if she remembered something embarrassing. She hesitated for a long time before gritting her teeth and saying： “I won’t pursue what happened just now！”
“I’m not responsible for what happened just now.” Yang Kai was speechless, thinking that women were really a bit unreasonable.
Yang Yan pursed her lips. Although she also knew that Yang Kai was indeed not responsible for what happened just now. It was clearly herself who jumped into Yang Kai’s arms and wouldn’t let go, but after all, she had been taken advantage of, and she felt wronged when she thought about it.
“Just help me once. I’ve helped you refine the weapon…” Yang Yan could only continue to plead.
“There’s no need to track it.” Yang Kai shook his head. “I can just call it over.”
“Call… call it over？” Yang Yan was stunned and looked at Yang Kai in surprise, not quite understanding what he meant.
But a moment later, the rustling sound came from underground again. This time, Yang Yan was quite bold, or rather, she was very looking forward to. She actually widened her eyes and looked at the position where the sound came from without blinking.
On the ground, a small hole suddenly appeared again, and the gray, slightly square head carefully poked out from it.
Yang Yan’s expression became even more excited, and her breathing suddenly became rapid.
The little stone man seemed to be a little afraid of Yang Yan, who had just slapped it hard. Although its intelligence was very low and it could only act according to instinct, it still remembered who had hit it.
As soon as it saw this face in front of it, the little stone man immediately climbed out of the hole, its movements were incredibly vigorous, and it quickly ran to Yang Kai’s feet and climbed up his clothes.
Yang Yan was dumbfounded, her gaze followed the little stone man all the way up until the little guy climbed onto Yang Kai’s shoulder and hid behind him before she suddenly screamed.
“Stone Race！”
Yang Kai noticed that her pretty face was distorted, and he didn’t know if it was due to excitement or something else.
After shouting once, Yang Yan seemed to realize something was wrong and immediately covered her own mouth, her spiritual thoughts probing forward, looking extremely cautious.
“Stone Race？” Yang Kai furrowed his brows, took the little guy down from his shoulder, and placed it on his palm and asked, “You know it？”
Yang Yan looked up at Yang Kai, nodded continuously, and suddenly realized： “Is this Stone Race yours？”
If it wasn’t Yang Kai’s, why could he easily catch it？ And be able to order it to come over by itself？ Yang Yan suddenly felt a bit dizzy. She discovered that she had underestimated Yang Kai’s background once again. He had so many precious materials, so many high-level secret treasures, and could also fight across levels and easily kill Saint King Realm experts. Now, he even had an existence as heaven-defying as the Stone Race. What kind of pervert was this exactly？
But why hadn’t this Stone Race been seen before？
“It’s mine. You tell me, what’s the deal with the Stone Clan？” Yang Kai also became interested. He had been researching the secret of the little stone man these days, but unfortunately, he had not gained anything. Unexpectedly, Yang Yan actually recognized it.
“Can you let me take a closer look？ I’m still not too sure！” Yang Yan looked at the little stone man expectantly.
Yang Kai nodded and threw it over. Yang Yan’s character was still trustworthy, and he also wanted Yang Yan to solve his doubts for him.
Yang Yan caught it with both hands and glared at Yang Kai fiercely, as if blaming him for being so rude.
Suddenly, she changed into a gentle face again, held the little stone man in front of herself, and looked it up and down.
Facing this woman who had inexplicably slapped himself the little stone man seemed a little afraid. Several times it stood up and wanted to return to Yang Kai. Yang Kai had no choice but to give it an order, and then it calmed down.
“It’s a Blood Essence Stone, that’s right. This is really the Stone Clan. My God, didn’t it say that this race has become extinct? There are actually still ones alive in the world.” Yang Yan observed for a while and excitedly talked to herself, tightly holding the little stone man and was a little reluctant to let go.
Yang Kai’s face turned dark, and he took the little guy back from her hand.
“I haven’t looked at it enough yet. Let me look at it again！” At this moment, Yang Yan didn’t care about the embarrassing things that happened before with Yang Kai. Her whole mind was attracted by the little guy. It seemed that it had an extremely strong attraction to this woman.
“Since you recognize it, explain it clearly to me. After you explain it clearly, you can study it however you want.” Yang Kai was still waiting for her to give an answer.
“You have it, but you don’t know what it is？” Yang Yan looked at Yang Kai in surprise.
“Why should I know?” Yang Kai looked at her.
Yang Yan’s mouth twitched, looking like she wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. She held back for a long time before gritted her teeth and said, “God is so unfair. Why can you have such a thing？ Why isn’t it mine？”
After being indignant for a while, she finally took the initiative to explain： “It is a member of the Stone Clan！”
“I’ve already heard you say that. Is the Stone Clan a race？”
“Yes.” Yang Yan nodded unhappily. “It is also called a Stone Puppet. Since you have it, you should know that its intelligence is very low, right? It can be said that it has almost no IQ. Its actions completely depend on instinct and the orders given by the person So even though it is a kind of living being and can be regarded as a race, it is still a kind of puppet!
Yang Kai nodded slightly, knowing that what Yang Yan said was right. Through these days of research, his discoveries were exactly the same as what Yang Yan said.
“They will only be born under a very special condition. The initial form of their birth is a kind of black pebble. They are wrapped in the pebble and have no life fluctuation. But as long as they absorb enough mineral essence, they will slowly grow until they are completely mature. Well, you can imagine them as oviparous, but it’s not exactly the same.”
“And if they want to hatch, they need a kind of thing, that is the blood essence stone！ The blood essence stone is originally the heart of the stone race. Without the blood essence stone, no matter how healthy a stone race grows, it cannot really come to life. There is a blood essence stone in the chest position of this little thing, so I can be sure that it is the stone race！”
Sure enough, it was the same as his own guess. The blood essence stone was the heart of the little guy！
“The number of the stone race is very, very small, but the role they can play is unimaginable. So a long, long time ago, as long as the stone race appeared, it would cause countless people to chase after it. They all wanted to take the stone race into their possession and turn it into their own stone puppet！”
“What role？” Yang Kai quickly asked.
Yang Yan chuckled lightly： “Their growth depends on absorbing a large amount of mineral essence, so they themselves are extremely sensitive to rare minerals. As long as there are any good mines nearby, they will find them in the first place. Do you think its use is great？ With a stone puppet, you can have all the unknown veins. The veins that the Void King Realm can’t find can’t hide from its detection either.”
Yang Kai’s eyes lit up, and he couldn’t help but look at the little guy, thinking that it wasn’t completely useless after all. Although it looked stupid and dull, it unexpectedly had such an ability.
