Chapter 1528
by“Liang Yong, Liang Yong, don’t tell this Sect Master that you don’t know anything about this.” Yang Kai sneered and looked towards Liang Yong.
The latter’s body trembled, his expression was frightened, and he said nervously: “Sect Master, please be discerning. This subordinate really doesn’t know anything about this. This subordinate only heard about the situation in Bibo City today for the first time and found out that it was actually so bad.
How dare he admit it? He had witnessed Yang Kai’s means. If he really admitted it, this place would be his burial place today.
In any case, he couldn’t admit it, so Liang Yong flatly denied it.
You won’t shed tears until you see the coffin. Do you have to wait until I find the evidence before you admit it? Since that’s the case, this Sect Master will grant you your wish. Then hand over your Space Ring to me.” Yang Kai’s expression turned cold, and he shouted in a low voice.
Liang Yong was sweating coldly all over his body and was unwilling to agree. He could only say, “Sect Master, please think twice. This subordinate is loyal to the Sect Master and will never go against the Sect Master’s will and do things that tarnish the reputation of the Sect. The Space Ring is this subordinate’s secret. Even if the Sect Master requests it, this subordinate would rather die than agree. Please understand, Sect Master.”
“Cut the crap.” Yang Kai snorted coldly and reached out to grab the ring on Liang Yong’s hand.
A hint of struggle flashed across Liang Yong’s face, and his eyes became resolute. Seeing Yang Kai reaching out, the Saint Yuan in his body rumbled and circulated, and he was about to resist.
Who knew that just as he moved, the space around him suddenly became extremely solidified, and bursts of violent pressure came from all directions, making it difficult for him to take a step.
Hissing sounds rang out continuously, and tiny spatial cracks visible to the naked eye swam around him like fish.
Liang Yong’s courage and gallbladder were torn apart. How dare he make any more movements, for fear that if he moved, he would be swallowed by these spatial cracks.
Before his eyes blurred, his Space Ring had already fallen into Yang Kai’s hands, and Liang Yong’s face instantly turned pale.
Holding his spatial ring, Yang Kai sneered softly, and his spiritual thoughts swept through the ring.His face gradually sullen.
Immediately, he waved his hand, and a series of clattering sounds came.
In front of the City Lord’s Mansion, there was immediately a small mountain-like pile of top-grade Saint Crystals.
The people watching around looked at this huge amount of Saint Crystals. They couldn’t help but gulp and let out a series of exclamations.
When had they ever seen such a large fortune？
Although no one counted carefully, there were almost hundreds of millions of Saint Crystals. If they could get them, they probably wouldn’t have to worry about cultivation for several lifetimes.
Besides the Saint Crystals, there were also various boxes. No one knew what was inside those boxes, but the boxes themselves were carved from valuable materials. One could imagine that the things inside must not be bad.
“So many good things, where did you get them？” Yang Kai looked at Liang Yong with a sullen face. “Give me a reasonable explanation, and I can spare your life！”
Liang Yong’s face was ashen, and he simply couldn’t explain clearly.
The evidence was right in front of him. If he hadn’t plundered the wealth of the nine cities under the jurisdiction of Zhantian City, how could he, alone, possess such a huge family property？
No one could have such ability！
“Sect Master, spare my life, Sect Master, spare my life. This subordinate knows his mistake. Please give this subordinate a chance to atone for his sins. This subordinate will definitely not disappoint.” Liang Yong shouted loudly.
Yang Kai slowly shook his head. “There are limits to forgiveness. Liang Yong, I spared your life at Luo Emperor Mountain and also in Zhan Tian City because you were still somewhat useful, but now… rest in peace！”
As the words fell, Yang Kai reached out and covered Liang Yong.
Liang Yong seemed to want to dodge, but for some reason, he couldn’t avoid it at all and was directly grabbed by the head by Yang Kai. Saint Yuan burst out, and Liang Yong let out a shrill cry as intense popping sounds came from within his body.
Accompanied by the sounds, his life force rapidly disappeared.
By the time Yang Kai retracted his hand, Liang Yong had completely lost his vitality and collapsed to the ground, dark red blood flowing from his seven orifices.
Everyone held their breath, looking at Yang Kai with complex expressions.
Many of them knew very well how powerful Liang Yong was. He was at the peak cultivation of the Third-Order Return to Void Realm. Even if he wasn’t as strong as the deceased leader of the Zhan Tian League, he wasn’t much worse.
But such a powerful expert was actually killed by Yang Kai with a single hand.
It was no more difficult than crushing an ant.
Although most people had long heard that Yang Kai was extremely powerful and extraordinary, it was just a rumor after all. It wasn’t until they actually saw it with their own eyes that they knew the rumor was true, and his strength was even more terrifying than the rumor.
Shan Ying was already dumbfounded, collapsing to the ground with a dull gaze.
He pinned all his hopes on Liang Yong, thinking that City Lord Liang could stand up for him and teach Yang Kai a good lesson.
But the development of the situation made him tremble with fear.
First, Liang Yong called this young man Sect Master, which made Shan Ying vaguely guess his true identity, and then Liang Yong, whom he regarded as a reliance, was actually pinched to death.
He had always regarded the Lingxiao Sect as his backer and acted arrogantly, but how could he know that he had accidentally offended the person in charge of this backer！
How could there be any way to survive？
He saw Yang Kai’s gaze sweep over him, but then casually passed by without stopping. That was a gaze that completely ignored his existence, as if he was no threat to him at all.
“Hehe, I don’t know how many of you are involved in this matter, but don’t be too nervous. Liang Yong is dead, and this Sect Master doesn’t want to kill anymore. This matter ends here. If you still want to live, you should know what to do.” Yang Kai looked at the martial artists who came with Liang Yong.
Most of these people were originally martial artists of the Zhantian League, and some were later recruited by Liang Yong. All of them were Void Return Stage martial artists.
“This subordinate thanks the Sect Master for not killing us!” The crowd is in unison responded, and then turned around and glared at Shan Ying.
“No！” Shan Ying shouted in horror.
It’s already too late. Those people swarmed up and directly submerged Shan Ying. All kinds of secret techniques and secret treasures bombarded him, reducing him to ashes and killing him on the spot.
“Xiao Qi, deal with the matter here and tell me the result as soon as possible.” Yang Kai looked at Ge Qi and ordered.
“Yes.”
“Where is the deputy city lord of Bibo City？” Yang Kai looked forward again.
“This subordinate is.” An old man with a wretched appearance quickly walked out, his calves still trembling, nodding and bowing to Yang Kai.
“Well, take me to see the warehouse of Bibo City.”
“This way, Sect Master！” How dare that old man neglect, and quickly led the way ahead.
Moments later, Yang Kai stood in the warehouse of Bibo City, looking at the dazzling array of materials and a large amount of saint crystals, making constant clicking sounds.
The so-called people’s fat and people’s ointment probably refers to these things.
“Ask someone to empty the warehouse and hand over all the things to Ge Qi. He should know how to deal with them.” Yang Kai gave an order and turned to leave.
The old man responded respectfully from behind.
Three days later, in the city lord’s mansion, Yang Kai sat upright on a chair, listening to Ge Qi’s report.
“Sect Master, the spatial rings of Liang Yong and Shan Ying, as well as the things in the treasury of Bibo City have all been dispersed. This subordinate asked the martial artists of Bibo City to report the Saint Crystals they had paid, and after verification, returned the things to them. I informed them that what happened here was not instructed by our Lingxiao Sect, but Shan Ying’s own assertion. Upon hearing this news, everyone applauded and praised the Sect Master’s great kindness and virtue.”
“Stop flattering so much.” Yang Kai glanced at him. For some reason, the more he looked at Ge Qi, the more wretched he felt this guy was. He also didn’t know how Ye Xiyun had adopted this guy back then.
Ge Qi smiled sheepishly.
“Liang Yong is dead, and Zhantian City is now leaderless. You have to work hard for a while longer and stay there to take charge. If you can cultivate capable and reliable people and let them take over the position of city lord, then you can return to the sect and not worry about these trivial matters.”
“Yes, I also have this plan.” Ge Qi nodded.
“What about the other cities under the jurisdiction of Zhantian City？ Are the situations the same as here？” Yang Kai asked again.
“Not quite the same. The severity of the situations varies. Some are more serious, and some are fine. The most serious one is Bibo City.”
“En, that’s good. Anyway, you can handle it as you see fit.”
“Sect Master, don’t worry. Xiao Qi won’t do those things that harm nature and reason. Oh, by the way, Sect Master, I have already passed the news of your return to the sect. The Great Elder is very eager to know how you are doing now.”
“Me？ I’m in great shape. Tell her I’ll be back in a few days and not to worry.”
“Yes.” Ge Qi nodded. “There’s another thing I need to tell Sect Master.”
“Speak.”
“Outside the City Lord’s Mansion, there are several people who have been wanting to see you, saying that they know you.” Ge Qi looked at Yang Kai with a strange expression.
Yang Kai thought for a moment and immediately knew who wanted to see him. He nodded and said, “Let them in.”
Ge Qi received the order and left. Moments later, an old man led several young people in nervously.
Yang Kai stood up and greeted them with a smile.
“This old man greets Sect Master Yang！” The old man quickly saluted.
“Old sir, there’s no need to be so polite.” Yang Kai chuckled and his gaze swept past the old man to look at the green-clothed girl behind him. The latter was staring at him with wide eyes, looking at him curiously without blinking.”
“What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and salute. You have no manners.” The old man lightly scolded.
Yang Kai waved his hand and said, “No need, no need. This is fine.”
The old man smiled bitterly and said, “Sect Master Yang, don’t be offended. These young people haven’t seen much of the world. If there’s anything offensive, please forgive us. Well, the reason this old man came is to thank Sect Master Yang for upholding justice for all the residents of Bibo City and avenging the death of the fourth son of my family. Please accept this old man’s bow.”
“Old man, don’t be so polite. If we really talk about this matter here, my Lingxiao Sect also has some responsibilities. If it weren’t for the oversight of the Lingxiao Sect, you wouldn’t have ended up like this. This matter is my fault. But fortunately, it was discovered not too late. I hope there will be some compensation in the future.”
“It is our honor to live in Bibo City and be under the jurisdiction of the Lingxiao Sect.” The old man said solemnly.
Yang Kai nodded slightly and grinned at the green-clothed girl： “Why do you keep looking at me? Don’t you recognize me?”
The green-clothed girl’s face turned red, and she stammered: “Are you really the master of the Lingxiao Sect? You’re not lying to me?
