Chapter 1319
byNo one expected that Yang Kai would actually kill Xie Quan who was captured by him.
The reason these Void Returning Jing martial artists didn’t act rashly before was, on the one hand, they were afraid of that weapon spirit Firebird, and on the other hand, it was also because of Xie Quan. Xie Quan was subdued by Yang Kai, so naturally they were afraid of acting improperly and provoking Yang Kai to kill. After all, they had also witnessed Yang Kai’s fierceness before. If Xie Quan really died, they wouldn’t be able to explain to Xie Li at that time.
But now, this concern was gone all of a sudden, and the reason was actually that Yang Kai himself took the initiative to do it. This was really unexpected and angry. Only then did everyone know that they had completely underestimated this young man’s madness and arrogance！
Without Xie Quan as a hostage, did he think that he, a Saint King Jing , could stand here and talk to so many Void Returning Jing on an equal footing？ And when they thought that the deaths of Xie Quan and those Xie family disciples would anger Xie Li, everyone could no longer remain calm. Ma Xinyuan pointed at Yang Kai from a distance, his fingers continuously tapping, as if he was so angry that he couldn’t speak. After a long while, he gritted his teeth and said, “Kid, you’re dead for sure. Now you’re really dead for sure.”
“Brother Ma, don’t waste your breath on him. It’s serious business to capture him and hand him over to Manager Xie.” Someone beside him coldly shouted.
“Just you？” Yang Kai laughed maniacally. If Chang Qi and Yu Feng and others were still here, he might have some concerns, but now that only he was left, even if there was really a Void Return Third-Order Realm powerhouse here, they wouldn’t be able to keep him. Having cultivated the power of space, he could tear open the space and escape at any time.
This time was not like last time in the Corpse Cave. Not only did he bring a Yang Yan with him, but he was also facing an opponent of the Thousand-Year Corpse General level.
There were only seven or eight Void Return First-Order Realm powerhouses here. Trying to keep him was simply a pipe dream.
“I’ll first tear down this Tianyun City and then settle the score with you！” Yang Kai’s voice suddenly turned cold. He pointed his hand and shouted in a low voice, “Burn for me！”
The Artifact Spirit Firebird received the instruction, let out a long cry to the sky, the firelight on its body rolled, and the fire-attribute spiritual energy between heaven and earth once again converged towards its body. In the blink of an eye, its size seemed to have increased a lot.
Seeing this scene, many Void Return Realm powerhouses’ complexions changed drastically. They all circulated their Saint Yuan and spread it outside their bodies, and then sacrificed their defensive secret treasures to protect themselves.
The next moment, the Firebird opened its large beak. A dazzling ball of light could faintly be seen taking shape within its mouth, and then it spat it out. A fearsome blaze of fire shot out, and the intense heat it contained almost melted the space, making one’s hair stand on end. It flew straight towards the ground.
The target of the Artifact Spirit wasn’t any particular person either, but rather the largest-looking shop in the vicinity.
Yang Kai had made up his mind to really turn Tianyun City upside down. The people of Dragon Cave Mountain had been bullied like this, and naturally, he wouldn’t let it go easily. If he backed down this time, it would only leave an impression of being weak and easily bullied, and I’m afraid things would only get worse in the future.
After all, this could be considered the first battle since the real establishment of Dragon Cave Mountain in its conflict with others！
Before the blaze of fire even reached the shop, the shop had already been ignited by the intense heat. The next moment, a mysterious light suddenly shot over from a distance. It arrived first despite starting later and entered the shop. Immediately, a film-like energy shield wrapped the building tightly.
This was the defensive restriction of this shop, and it could also be considered a kind of protective formation. As long as it was a slightly larger shop in Tianyun City, they all had it. However, depending on the financial strength, the power of this kind of formation restriction was also different.
The restriction of this shop was obviously not too weak. The energy shield wrapped around it emitted a greenish glow, like water waves, and it was obvious at a glance that it had been carefully arranged.
Even so. When the firelight came into contact with this restriction, it still shook the restriction violently and almost broke it directly. The green light dimmed instantly. It only lasted for less than two breaths before itBoom shattered.
The remaining momentum of the firelight did not decrease, and it rushed straight towards the shop.
Just at this time, a secret treasure that looked like a round bowl suddenly shot out, and in mid-air, it turned into a size of more than ten feet in diameter and directly blocked above the shop.
Caught off guard, the firelight rushed into the round bowl. Immediately, a blue light burst out from the round bowl, the firelight into a ball and suppressed it inside. A middle-aged man dressed as a Confucian scholar strangely appeared above the round bowl, and with an extremely solemn expression he hit several holy yuan into the round bowl. With the urging of his spiritual thoughts, the round bowl quickly contracted and returned to its original size.
The middle-aged Confucian scholar beckoned and took the round bowl back, staring blankly at the tumbling flames inside, with an ugly expression on his face.
“Finally came out！” Yang Kai snorted coldly and didn’t make any other movements. Instead, he stood there and stared at this middle-aged Confucian scholar.
When he first stepped into Tianyun City, he had already noticed the existence of the other party. After all, this person had the cultivation base of the third level of the Void Returning Realm！
And apart from him, there was no other master in the entire Tianyun City who made him wary. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so unrestrained before.
What puzzled him was that no matter how he acted, the other party had no intention of showing up. However, Yang Kai paid attention to him. It wasn’t until now, when the shop was about to be destroyed, that this person finally couldn’t help but show up.
Yang Kai didn’t know whether this person was an enemy or a friend, but he instinctively felt that the other party should have no ill intentions towards him. Otherwise, he might have been unable to hold back long ago.
“Blue Jade Bowl！”
“City Lord Fei！”
Those Void Return Stage 1 martial artists shouted one after another. Hearing their shouts, Yang Kai immediately understood who this middle-aged Confucian scholar was.
The city lord of Tianyun City, Fei Zhitu！
Yang Kai had never dealt with this person, but he had also heard his name. More than two years ago, when he had conflicts with the Harker family and the Xu family, the people of the two families had once gone to the city lord’s mansion for help. Unfortunately, in the end, the people of the two families failed to meet Fei Zhitu. Instead, Ian, the head of the Harker family, met Xie Hongwen in the city lord’s mansion and involved Xie Hongwen in that conflict.
Yang Kai knew about him also from Wu Yi’s mouth. He just didn’t expect that this person was actually a Void Return Stage 3.
Looking at this person, Yang Kai finally revealed a hint of dread. The cyan jade bowl in the opponent’s hand was actually able to absorb the attack sprayed out by the Firebird. Obviously, it was of no low grade, and his own aura was also extremely profound, seemingly no worse than Qian Tong’s.
Just because he could do as he pleased under the gaze of seven or eight Void Return Stage 1 martial artists didn’t mean he could do the same in front of a Void Return Stage 3 powerhouse. However, before figuring out this person’s attitude, Yang Kai didn’t plan to retreat. He still had trump cards up his sleeve. Whether it was the Spatial Blade or the Lotus Birth Secret Technique, they were both the supports for his confidence to stay.
After recognizing Fei Zhitu, the old man with the goat beard and the others all had slight changes in their expressions and quickly stepped forward to salute. Ma Xinyuan even said with a flickering expression, “City Lord, didn’t we hear that you were in seclusion cultivating a secret technique？ Could it be that it has been successfully completed？”
Fei Zhitu leisurely glanced at him and said indifferently, “Why, is Manager Ma very concerned about this city lord’s secret technique？”
“Dare not, dare not. This subordinate just asked casually.” Ma Xinyuan’s face flushed with embarrassment, and he didn’t dare to say anything more.
“Hmph！” Fei Zhitu swept his gaze, and his eyes turned on the faces of each Void Return Stage 1 martial artist. He taunted, “If this city lord didn’t come out again, would you have demolished my Tianyun City？”
“Forgive us, City Lord！” Everyone was shocked when they heard this and quickly clasped their fists. One of them stepped forward and explained, “However, there are still some reasons for this matter. The reason why the shops in the city have been made like this is not our fault. It is this brat who is arrogant and lawless, killing and setting fires here. Please, City Lord, see clearly！”
As he spoke, he pointed distantly at Yang Kai.
Fei Zhitu turned his head and looked at Yang Kai. He found that the other party was actually looking at him fearlessly, without any expression of fear. He couldn’t help but marvel in his heart. At the same time, his face sank and he shouted, “A bunch of trash. You can’t even take down a brat in the Saint King Realm. Do you still have the face to live in this world and claim to be Void Returning Realm cultivators? I think you have lived like dogs all these years.”
All seven or eight Void Returning Realm cultivators lowered their heads and remained silent, feeling extremely aggrieved in their hearts.
After scolding for a while, Fei Zhitu then laughed and said, “Little brat, you have quite a lot of courage. You dare to kill and set fires in my Tianyun City. Don’t you take this City Lord seriously at all？”
“Senior, please see clearly. It is really these people who are dishonest and too bullying. The little one had no choice but to resist a little！” Yang Kai’s expression was indifferent.
“Fight back a little…” Fei Zhitu’s eyes twitched. He had been hiding in the dark and watched the whole thing from beginning to end. He only saw Yang Kai being extremely arrogant and a group of Return to Void Jing cultivators being toyed with by him. Where was there any fight back? He thought to himself that the boy was telling blatant lies and was simply shameless. His face was cold and stern as he said, “I just heard you say that you want to overthrow my Tianyun City?”
Yang Kai grinned： “Senior, please forgive me. I was just extremely angry just now and spoke without thinking. Senior is so magnanimous and won’t take what I said seriously, right？”
Fei Zhitu took a deep breath and sneered: “This city lord doesn’t care whether you spoke without thinking or not. A real man must keep his word. Today, either you really overthrow my Tianyun City, or this city lord will draw a path for you. Otherwise, you can never leave this place safely.
Hearing what he said, Yang Kai’s face sank slightly. But after pondering for a moment, he smiled again and said： “Since senior said so, then junior has the audacity to ask senior for instructions！”
With such a powerful cultivator here, he definitely couldn’t continue to cause trouble. But he vaguely heard a hint of a different message from the other party’s words. This Fei Zhitu didn’t seem to be an enemy after all.
The other Void Returning Stages were not fools. How could they not hear the hidden meaning in Fei Zhitu’s words? The City Lord clearly intended to turn hostility into friendship with the other party. Ma Xinyuan and the others were shocked in their hearts. Just as they were about to open their mouths to stop it, Fei Zhitu had already loudly said, “You have killed people and burned down quite a few shops. Even if our Shadow Moon Palace was in the wrong first, you have also vented your anger. Originally, it could have ended here, but I cannot let you leave just like that. Otherwise, if it spreads out, outsiders will only think that this City Lord is timid and afraid of getting into trouble.”
“Junior understands！” Yang Kai slightly nodded.
