Chapter 150

However, if someone is willing to exchange martial skills with him, he can give away the Blazing Sun Explosion. But the sect strictly prohibits disciples from privately exchanging martial skills, which makes people feel rather regretful.

Just as he was about to take a step, a cold shout came from not far away： “Yang Kai！”

Turning his head in the direction of the sound, Yang Kai’s brows furrowed slightly.

The person who stopped him was a young man in his twenties and sixties. Yang Kai recognized this person. It was Cao Zhengwen from the Law Enforcement Hall. It was he who ordered to arrest Yang Kai, Li Yuntian and others into the Forest Prison a few months ago.

Cao Zhengwen carried his hands behind his back and walked up to Yang Kai with a cold expression and cold eyes.

“Senior Brother, is there something？”

Cao Zhengwen snorted coldly and didn’t say a word. He just flicked something out with a wave of his hand and shot it straight at Yang Kai.

Yang Kai stretched out two fingers and hold this thing in his hand. His calm performance made Cao Zhengwen’s face twitch. Obviously, he didn’t expect that the hidden strength he attached to it would be easily resolved by Yang Kai.

“What is this？” Yang Kai looked at the thing in his hand. It was a letter, but he didn’t open it immediately.

“Promotion order!” Cao Zhengwen said with a straight face, “Passing the order of the elder, the trial disciple Yang Kai has broken through to the Kaiyuan Realm and should be promoted to an ordinary disciple.”

Yang Kai raised his eyebrows： “Promotion？”

“That’s right!” Cao Zhengwen nodded, “You have been in the sect for three years and have always been only in the Body Tempering Realm, so you were demoted to a trial disciple. However, considering your diligent cultivation and finally breaking through to the Kaiyuan Realm, theElder will discuss and decided to give you a chance to be promoted!

“Chance？” Yang Kai heard the deep meaning in his words.

Cao Zhengwen said meaningfully: “As long as you complete the task assigned by theElder, you can be promoted from a trial disciple to an ordinary disciple! In the history of Lingxiao Pavilion, only you among the trial disciples have received this honor. The opportunity is rare. Younger Brother Yang must seize it well. Whether you can turn over depends on this time.”

“Not interested！” Yang Kai waved his hand and threw the promotion order back.

Cao Zhengwen’s face changed and he raised his hand to catch it. He said sharply: “Yang Kai, this is the order of theElder!” How dare you refuse?

So what if it’s theElder? Yang Kai said impatiently. “I neither steal nor rob. I’m an honest and law-abiding trial disciple of the Lingxiao Pavilion. Do they still want to force me to be promoted?

Although Yang Kai didn’t know what the mission in that letter was, he guessed it definitely wouldn’t be an easy task to complete, and there might even be great danger.

“So you’re just such a person who is content with mediocrity.” Cao Zhengwen sneered and laughed.

Come to think of it, this promotion order should have been given to Yang Kai when he was rescued from the Sen Prison by Su Yan. But after that, Yang Kai went to the Jiuyin Valley with Xia Ning Shang , and not two days after he came back, the Inheritance Cave Heaven appeared again, so it was delayed until now.

“Whether I’m mediocre or not, it’s not up to you to decide.” Yang Kai pouted and walked past Cao Zhengwen.

“Yang Kai!” Cao Zhengwen shouted angrily, attracting the attention of many Lingxiao Pavilion disciples. “Don’t think that just because you obtained some opportunities in the Inheritance Cave Heaven, you can be arrogant. You’re not the only one who had strange encounters there! If you dare to ignore the order of theElder, do you know the consequences!

“Get lost！” Yang Kai turned around and let out a low growl at Cao Zhengwen with a murderous look on his face. The latter was actually stunned for a moment. By the time he reacted, Yang Kai had long disappeared.

In the front of the Martial Skill Pavilion, it was quiet. Many Lingxiao Pavilion disciples witnessed the scene just now and were secretly shocked.

Yang Kai actually ignored the order of the elder! This… is simply unthinkable. For them, the order of the elder would be the golden rule. Once the order is issued, even if it is a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, they have to rush in. When has ever been a thought of daring to resist and refuse? But just now, right in the front of them, a trial disciple refused the order issued by the elder!

Isn’t this heresy？ Is there any respect for elders in his eyes？ While many people admired in their hearts, they also secretly condemned. They thought that Yang Kai was probably just a person who was content with mediocrity, so he would refuse the order of promotion.

Cao Zhengwen stood there with a iron blue face and the promotion order in his hand was crumpled by him. While being angry in his heart, he was also a little at a loss.

The Great Elder personally told himself that no matter what, Yang Kai had to take this promotion order and complete the task on the order.

What exactly was that task, Cao Zhengwen also took a sneaky look at it.

Go alone to the Cangyun Evil Land and kill an evil warrior whose strength is not lower than his own！

This task is simple if it is said to be simple, and difficult if it is said to be difficult. The Cangyun Evil Land is a place where countless evil warriors gather. If you can meet a single evil warrior, you can naturally complete the task easily. But if you are unlucky and meet some with high strength, even the elders may not be able to get away.

Cao Zhengwen originally thought that Yang Kai would definitely accept the task no matter what, but he didn’t expect that he was so bold as to reject the order issued by the elder in public.

This…how could he explain？ Standing there and thinking for a long time, Cao Zhengwen finally gritted his teeth resentfully and turned to leave.

Early in the morning, his mood was spoiled by Cao Zhengwen, and Yang Kai’s expression was a little gloomy.

If it weren’t for the fact that that person specifically asked him to come to Lingxiao Pavilion three years ago, he wouldn’t have traveled thousands of miles to come here. But why did he want him to come to Lingxiao Pavilion？ What was the relationship between this place and him？

After more than three years in the sect, having experienced the warmth and coldness of the world and the fickleness of human nature, Yang Kai had no sense of belonging to Lingxiao Pavilion at all.

If there was anything to be reluctant about, it was probably only Su Yan.

But this sense of reluctance only emerged recently.

By the way, there was also Xia Ning Shang . When getting along with this little senior sister, it felt very warm.

While walking, someone chased after him in a hurry from behind. With a gust of fragrant wind blowing by, a person panted and shouted： “Junior Brother Yang…”

Yang Kai stopped in his tracks and turned his head to take a look. The person who came was actually Lan Chudie.

Although things didn’t go very smoothly in the inheritance cave, after all, they were fellow disciples, and she hadn’t provoked him either. Yang Kai was patient enough to greet her： “Senior Sister Lan！”

Lan Chudie smiled charmingly. Perhaps because of her panting, her plump and huge breasts that didn’t seem to belong to this world trembled thrillingly, making people’s hearts palpitate. She seemed to have forgotten everything that happened in the Inheritance Cave Heaven, and looked at Yang Kai naturally, saying, “I thought you would never talk to me again from now on.”

“There’s no such thing. Senior Sister is overthinking.” Yang Kai smiled lightly.

Lan Chudie’s bright eyes stared at Yang Kai, and she said with a shallow smile, “It was my fault in the Inheritance Cave Heaven. I hope Junior Brother will be magnanimous and not bother with me.”

She was a smart woman. She straightforwardly pointed out the matter in the Inheritance Cave Heaven and then brushed it aside lightly, which made her seem even more sincere and not hypocritical.

Not to mention that Yang Kai was not a stingy person. Even if he really had an opinion of her, it would have been resolved invisibly at this moment.

Smiling faintly, Yang Kai shook his head and said, “Senior Sister is too serious. It wasn’t a big deal in the first place.”

“Junior Brother can say so, and I feel much better.” Lan Chudie covered her plump breasts with her hand, looking relieved. Then her beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly and said, “However, Junior Brother was a bit reckless today. Why did you reject the order of the elder? There will be trouble like this.”

“Didn’t Cao Zhengwen say that I’m a person who is content with mediocrity？ Since I’m mediocre, there’s no need to think about promotion or not. What’s wrong with being a Trial Disciple？”

Seeing that Lan Chudie was about to speak again, Yang Kai furrowed his brows and said, “I don’t really want to talk to anyone today. Forgive me, I’ll take my leave.”

Lan Chudie was stunned for a moment and then nodded with a smile.

Naturally, she could tell that although Yang Kai’s tone when speaking to her was very gentle, there was still a hint of coldness between his brows. If she were to pester him at this time, it would only invite annoyance.

After taking leave of Lan Chudie, Yang Kai returned to his cave residence. Xia Ning Shang was nowhere to be seen, presumably she had already left. Moreover, there were two more pots of potted plants here. Yang Kai looked at them and felt a bit familiar. It took him a long time to remember that these should be the two pots placed at the counter of the Contribution Hall.

On weekdays, he often saw Old Meng take care of these two things, but now they had been moved here by Xia Ning Shang .

In the Lingxiao Pavilion, however, because of Yang Kai’s refusal this time, a surging undercurrent was set off.

In the residence of the Great Elder, Cao Zhengwen reported what had happened in the morning with great exaggeration and indignation. After listening, Wei Xitong choked on a mouthful of tea.

“He refused？” The Great Elder had thought of countless possibilities, but never expected that Yang Kai would be so bold and audacious.

“Yes.” Cao Zhengwen was indignant and hard to quell, and said, “Not only did he refuse, but he also slandered the majesty of theElder in the front of many junior brothers and sisters. Great Elder he shone brightly with an unknown martial art in the Inheritance Cave Heaven. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that he has become arrogant and thinks he is someone, so he doesn’t take theElder seriously. This person must be severely punished otherwise, it will be difficult to convince the public! If in the future, any disciple can refuse the orders issued by theElder, then…

“Shut up！” Wei Xitong heavily patted the table and looked at Cao Zhengwen angrily, “Since he refused, couldn’t you just force the order on him and make him accept it？”

Cao Zhengwen was at a loss, thinking that since he had refused, why should he still make himself uncomfortable？ Isn’t this slapping his own hot face on someone else’s cold butt？

His refusal is a good thing. It just so happens that we can take this opportunity to teach him a lesson. Why does the Great Elder have such a reaction again？

However, seeing the gloomy face of the Great Elder, Cao Zhengwen didn’t dare to say much.

“Go, no matter what method you use, even if you kneel down and beg him, you must make him accept this order for me！” Wei Xitong thought for a while and said in a deep voice.

“Ah…” Cao Zhengwen was stunned.

Kneel down and beg him？

“Hurry up and go！” The Great Elder slapped the table into powder with a single palm.

“Yes！” How dare Cao Zhengwen stay any longer and quickly retreated.

At the attic of the Second Elder, Su Xuanwu sat cross-legged on the ground. In front of him was a chessboard with black and white pieces crisscrossing. The black pieces had a monstrous momentum, surrounding the white pieces but not killing them. This was a lifeless endgame.

A disciple beside him was reporting something. After listening, a strange look appeared on Su Xuanwu’s face： “Rejected？”

That disciple said respectfully： “Yes, blatantly and defiantly rejected.”

Su Xuanwu’s expression changed constantly. It was a long time before he burst into laughter: “Well rejected, well rejected!” Senior Brother, Senior Brother, you shot yourself in the foot. I’m afraid this taste is not good.
