Chapter 1289

When entering the Burial Valley of Heroes, because they had to search and investigate, the speed of the two of them was not fast, and they could only walk forward on foot. But now when leaving, Yang Kai was controlling the Star Shuttle, and the time spent naturally wouldn’t be so long.

Just as Yang Kai was hurrying out with Yang Yan in a hurry, suddenly he stopped his figure, Youdaoplaceholder0 towards the distant side as if to notice something, and let out a soft eh, showing a look of surprise.

“What’s the matter？” Yang Yan asked in surprise, not knowing why Yang Kai suddenly stopped.

“It’s nothing.” Yang Kai replied lightly. “I met one of those people before again, but her state seems a bit off.”

Over there, a figure was hurrying towards this side. I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but it was exactly in the direction of Yang Kai. And under Yang Kai’s deliberate observation, he found that the person coming was actually the woman named Lv Ying who was following Shen Shitao.

But at this moment, her expression was flustered, and the fluctuation of her Saint Yuan was extremely unstable. She looked a bit embarrassed as if she had just experienced a difficult battle.

And apart from her, Shen Shitao of the Qiantian Sect, Shen Fanlei and Wang Yuhan of the Jidao Sect were all nowhere to be seen. I don’t know where they went.

The other party was obviously in some kind of trouble. If it were a stranger, Yang Kai would have immediately left this place. After all, not long ago, he had just provoked those special existences in the Corpse Cave. How could he still have the heart to stay？

But the other party was someone he knew. If he didn’t see her, that would be fine. Since he saw her and just left like this, Yang Kai still felt a little uneasy.

Anyway, it was thanks to Shen Shitao that he knew this place was the Burial Valley of Heroes.

After pondering for a while, Yang Kai gritted his teeth and controlled the Star Shuttle to meet Lv Ying.

Lv Ying was flying while looking around, as if she was looking for something. Suddenly, she noticed someone approaching and couldn’t help but be startled. She looked towards Yang Kai. After seeing Yang Kai’s face clearly, she was overjoyed. The vigilance and panic on her face disappeared, and she also rushed forward eagerly.

Before she even arrived, she shouted in a trembling voice： “Brother Yang！”

“Miss Lv Ying!” Yang Kai rushed to her and stopped. He asked suspiciously: “What’s the matter that makes you so flustered?”

“Brother Yang, go and save Sister Shen and the others quickly. They have been targeted by a ninth-order monster beast.”

“Ninth-order monster beast？” Yang Kai’s face sank. “Why is there a monster beast here？ And it’s a ninth-order one.”

A ninth-order monster beast, that is equivalent to the level of a Void Returning Mirror. In such a special place as the Burial Valley of Heroes, the existence of a monster beast is really beyond his expectations.

“I don’t know either, but there is indeed a ninth-order monster beast there. Senior Sister Shen and the others are trapped there. They managed to send me out to find someone for help with great difficulty. Brother Yang, please hurry over. If it’s too late, it will be too late.”

“Miss Luying is joking.” Yang Kai didn’t agree directly, but said with a frown, “I only have the cultivation base of the Second-Order Saint King Realm. My strength is not as good as that of Miss Shen and that Brother Wang. They are all trapped. If I go there, wouldn’t it be seeking my own death?

Hearing this, Luying’s expression froze, as if she also reacted.

Just now she was eager to find someone, and this place like the Burial Valley of Heroes is rarely visited by people. She finally saw Yang Kai, so of course she quickly asked for help. Now being reminded by Yang Kai, her complexion suddenly changed.

She also witnessed the power of that monster beast with her own eyes. The combined strength of the four of them could only barely resist it. Even if Yang Kai passed by, with his realm and cultivation base, how could he turn the tide？ I’m afraid he would also be implicated and unable to get away.

For a while, Luying was stunned in place, and her mind was in a mess.

Although Yang Kai didn’t agree directly, he also asked, “What type of monster beast is that？ And what is its specific strength？”

Lv Ying replied subconsciously, “It’s a thunder-attribute monster beast. In terms of strength, it should only be equivalent to the first level of the Void Returning Realm. But it can make extraordinary use of a thunder pool and a restriction over there. Otherwise, Senior Sister Shen and the others wouldn’t have been trapped and unable to escape. Even if they couldn’t defeat it, they should have been able to escape.”

“Thunder pool？” Before Yang Kai could answer, Yang Yan’s eyes lit up, seemingly very interested.

“Yes, there is a thunder pool here that many people know about. This time, Senior Sister Shen’s younger brother, Shen Fanlei, was going to use that thunder pool to cultivate a secret technique to break through the current bottleneck, but this kind of accident happened.” Lv Ying quickly explained.

Yang Kai looked at Yang Yan, and suddenly a voice came into his ear through sound transmission from Yang Yan, “I want the thunder liquid in that thunder pool！”

Yang Kai sighed, knowing that he was probably going to have to go this time. Not to mention that he didn’t really plan to stand by and do nothing in the first place. Now that Yang Yan was also interested in that so-called thunder liquid, it must be a very useful good thing.

What he said just now was just because of his cautious nature.

With this thought in mind, Yang Kai no longer hesitated and said, “Miss Lv Ying, lead the way. Although my strength is not high, since Miss Shen is in trouble, I can’t just stand by and watch. But I don’t dare to guarantee anything. I can only say that I will do my best.”

“Huh？” Hearing this, Lu Ying’s expression turned from worry to joy. Just now, hearing Yang Kai’s tone, she thought he was not willing to make a move. Unexpectedly, the situation took a sudden turn for the better. Overjoyed, she immediately nodded and led the way ahead.

However, it seems that she didn’t hold much hope for Yang Kai either. Along the way, she was still extremely worried, and her spiritual thoughts spread out constantly checking whether there were other more powerful martial artists moving around.

But to her disappointment, she found nothing.

And on the way, through inquiries, Yang Kai also learned that the main purpose of their coming to the Burial Valley this time was that thunder pond. Everything was going smoothly at first. After finding that thunder pond, Shen Fanlei entered it, attracted thunder into his body, and began to practice his secret technique. The other three people guarded beside him. Who would have known that a few days later, a Silver Night Thunder Beast suddenly rushed out from below the thunder pond, not only making Shen Fanlei’s cultivation fall short, but also the Silver Night Thunder Beast had a not low intelligence and also activated the restrictions near the thunder pond, trapping all four people, and it seemed to have the intention of killing all four martial artists who broke into the thunder pond.

Because Lu Ying had a very suitable escape secret treasure, so in the situation where she felt that she couldn’t defeat the enemy and couldn’t get out of trouble, Shen Shitao joined forces with Wang Yuhan and Shen Fanlei to forcibly tear open a part of the restrictions and let Lu Ying escape.

But because that restriction was arranged beside the thunder pond and was continuously replenished and repaired by the power of thunder and lightning, the other three people simply didn’t have time to escape together and were still trapped in it.

It has been a day and a night since Green Jade escaped to look for help, and no one knows what the situation is over there.

“After so much time has passed, is it a bit too late?” Yang Kai slightly sighed.

“No.” Green Jade quickly shook her head. “Senior Sister Shen has a defensive secret treasure with extremely great power. Even if she can’t defeat the enemy, she can still hold on for a while.”

“Oh？” Yang Kai raised his brows.

Green Jade took the initiative to explain： “Speaking of which, we also have to thank Senior Brother Yang. Last time in the Flowing Flame Sand Ground, we collected a large number of Saint Crystals. After going back, we handed over the Saint Crystals to the sect, and the elders in the sect bestowed some rare secret treasures on each of us. Senior Sister Shen obtained a Nine Palace Heavenly Net Umbrella, which is a Void Grade High-Rank secret treasure. It has already been refined into her body by Senior Sister Shen and can be used freely. And the secret treasure I used to escape was also bestowed by the elders. Otherwise, with my strength, how could I have escaped.”

“So that’s how it is！” Hearing this, Yang Kai also felt slightly relieved. Since there is a Void Grade High-Rank defensive secret treasure to protect, Shen Shitao shouldn’t have any major problems. Otherwise, when he rushed over, he could only collect the corpses of Shen Shitao and the others, which would also be a rather tragic thing.

The location of that thunder pond was not close to the original position of the three people. It took a full half a day to arrive at the destination.

Yang Kai also closely observed the surroundings along the way, fearing that some Corpse Soldiers or Corpse Generals would suddenly emerge from somewhere to encircle and intercept him. After all, he wasn’t sure whether those special existences in the Corpse Cave would chase after him. He promised to go and rescue Shen Shitao, and in fact, he also took a certain risk.

When they were still ten miles away from the Thunder Pond, Lv Ying pointed from a distance and said pleasantly, “That’s it over there. It seems that Senior Sister Shen and the others are indeed safe and sound！”

There was no need for her to remind. Yang Kai had already noticed the abnormality over there. I saw that a large expanse of blue clouds was pressing down on the sky over there. In the blue clouds, thunder foxes flickered, and from time to time, one or two bolts of lightning would strike down from the sky, with an astonishing momentum. And beneath the blue clouds, there was an energy shield shining with thunder light, covering the earth. Although the specific situation inside couldn’t be clearly seen yet, it could be judged from the fighting sounds that Shen Shitao and the others were not dead, but their auras were a little weak. It seemed that they had persisted until now and were probably about to reach their limits.

Seeing this, Yang Kai said without hesitation, “Let’s go over.”

With a flicker of his figure, he was a hundred zhang away, rushing straight over there. Lv Ying also followed closely behind. At the same time, she opened her cherry mouth and let out a pleasant sound like that of a bird. This sound rose and fell, really sounding like a bird chirping, but it contained some information that outsiders couldn’t detect.

Hearing this voice, Shen Shitao, who was struggling to hold on beside the thunder pool, had a happy expression on her pretty face and shouted in a charming voice, “It’s Junior Sister Luying. She has found helpers. Now we are saved.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Yuhan and Shen Fanlei both had a boost in their spirits and simultaneously urged the defensive secret treasures in their hands to resist the lightning forces that were coming head-on.

It was also thanks to the three of them working together with one heart, only defending and not counterattacking. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to hold on until now.

“Junior Sister Shen！” A moment later, Luying’s charming shout came from outside.

Shen Shitao quickly turned her head and looked over there, saying happily, “Junior Sister Luying, have you found helpers？”

“Yes, living up to Senior Sister’s high expectations, I brought Senior Brother Yang here.” Luying quickly nodded.

“Senior Brother Yang？” Shen Shitao was stunned when she heard this. She looked behind Luying again and saw Yang Kai standing there with a solemn expression, staring at the situation inside without saying a word.

“Little Brother Yang…” Shen Shitao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She never expected that the helper Luying found was actually Yang Kai. Although he was the person with great fortune in her heart, fortune had nothing to do with the current situation. Relying only on fortune, I’m afraid it would still be a dead end.
