Chapter 1551
byXia Ning Shang didn’t enter the Mysterious Realm Pearl. She was now at the Void Returning 1-layer realm and wouldn’t hold Yang Kai back. Moreover, she had just broken through and there were many things she needed to learn, so Yang Kai let her follow him, which was also convenient for teaching.
What’s more, traveling with a beauty is a very pleasing thing.
Hearing Yang Kai say this, she immediately asked, “Who are you looking for?”
“Old Li!” Yang Kai looked at her.
Xia Ning Shang suddenly understood and gently nodded. She closed her beautiful eyes and began to search.
Now she is the star master of the Tongxuan Continent, having refined the origin of the stars. With a single thought, she can shuttle back and forth anywhere on the continent. Here, she is the master!
Finding someone is still very easy for her.
She communicates with the origin of the stars on the Tongxuan Continent with her mind, perceiving the messages transmitted back by the flowers, plants and trees on the continent, and distinguishing the traces of the person she is looking for from them. In less than half a day, she suddenly opens her beautiful eyes and exclaims: “Found it!”
Yang Kai’s spirit is shocked, and he steps forward to hold Xia Ning Shang ‘s small hand: “Take me there to pay a visit.”
Xia Ning Shang gently nods, stretches out her jade hand, and points forward. In the void, a pitch-black vortex immediately appears, as if it wants to devour everything. The two drill into it and disappear in an instant.
On an unnamed barren mountain, it is barren and desolate, and several thatched cottages stand on the top of the mountain.
No one would have thought that this is actually the secluded place of the Tiancang Old Man Li Rui who is famous throughout the continent.
Yang Kai respects Old Man Li very much, not only because he is the longest-lived wise man on the entire continent, living for thousands of years with the cultivation base of the Saint Realm, but also because of his unsparing teachings to himself back then.
Back then when the Bone Race revived, Old Man Li once came to the Jiutian Holy Land and, with his great reputation, called on the entire human race to unite, which helped Yang Kai a great deal.
This time when Yang Kai returned to the Nine Heavens Holy Land, he didn’t find the trace of Old Li and his disciple Zhai Yao.
Presumably with Old Li’s unrestrained and carefree nature, it’s probably impossible for him to stay in one place for a long time, so he left the Nine Heavens Holy Land.
Now Yang Kai is going to the Star Field again. Of course he wants Old Li to go with him too.
“Is this the place?” Xia Ning Chang brought Yang Kai to this barren mountain less than a thousand zhang high, and Yang Kai couldn’t help but frown.
“En.” Xia Ning Chang nodded slightly. “But I didn’t detect thesmell of Old Li, only that of Senior Brother Zhai…”
Hearing her say this, a bad feeling suddenly emerged in Yang Kai’s heart. He looked up and saw those few simple thatched cottages in the distance. In front of the thatched cottages, there were also several medicine fields. However, what was planted in them was not the spiritual herbs and miraculous medicines used for cultivation, but some ordinary medicinal materials.
These medicinal materials are quite effective in treating diseases for ordinary people, but they have no use at all for cultivation.
There was a person taking care of the medicinal herbs in the middle of the medicine field, watering and fertilizing, repeating the monotonous movements with a meticulous expression.
Yang Kai stepped towards him.
“Here to see a doctor?” The man who was watering didn’t even look up when he heard the movement and casually asked.
“Brother Zhai, long time no see!” Yang Kai smiled and looked at him, greeting him.
Zhai Yao’s movement froze. As if realizing something, he slowly straightened his body and looked up at Yang Kai. After seeing Yang Kai’s face clearly, he couldn’t help but grin and laugh heartily.
A row of bright white teeth, combined with his beautiful face that almost made women jealous, and a setting sun behind him emitting afterglow, pouring on him and splashing out a golden halo.
The kid is still outrageously handsome…
Zhai Yao took two steps forward and hugged Yang Kai tightly.
Brother Yang, when did you come back?” He didn’t seem surprised at all, as if he had long known that Yang Kai would return safely.”
Almost two months.
Zhai Yao nodded slightly, shook the mud on his hands, and greeted warmly: “Come on, today we’ll drink and be merry!”
Okay!” Yang Kai responded readily.”
In front of the thatched hut, the two sat on the ground. There were no delicious delicacies. The twinkling stars in the sky and the refreshing breeze blowing towards them were the side dishes. Xia Ning Shang sat upright on the side, holding a wine jug in her hand and pouring wine for Yang Kai and Zhai Yao.
The stars are all over the sky. In front of the thatched hut, there is a friend coming from afar, and it is extremely pleasant.
Master passed away more than twenty years ago.” Zhai Yao suddenly said something out of the blue.”
Although he had already guessed in his heart, when Yang Kai heard this news, the big hand holding the wine cup still trembled slightly.
Zhai Yao grinned and said: “He left very peacefully. Master has long reached this age.”
With the cultivation base of the Saint Realm, having lived for thousands of years, this is simply not something that others can do. Old Li was in pharmacology and used to regulate his body so he could live so long.
“Brother Zhai, please accept my condolences!” Yang Kai thought for a long time and didn’t know what to say.
Zhai Yao smiled and said: “Master’s mantle is still there. Master lives in my heart!”
Yang Kai looked at him and also laughed, feeling relieved.
“Brother Yang, what’s the matter with you coming to see Master this time?” Zhai Yao asked.
“It’s nothing. It’s just that I’m going to leave again. I want Old Li and Brother Zhai to come with me.”
“Enter the star field?” Zhai Yao’s eyes narrowed.
“That’s right.” Yang Kai nodded.
Zhai Yao fell silent. After a long while, he shook his head and said: “Master raised me and taught me. He treated me with great kindness. I can’t leave him alone here.”
Yang Kai opened his mouth. Before he could persuade anything, Zhai Yao smiled and said: “Brother Yang, don’t say any more. My mind is made up!”
Seeing that he was so insistent, Yang Kai could only sigh.
There was wine, and they drank it wildly and got drunk!
When dawn came, Zhai Yao was lying on the ground sprawled out, sound asleep. Yang Kai and Xia Ning Shang searched and found a simple grave on this mountaintop. After devoutly offering sacrifices and leaving some cultivation resources for Zhai Yao, they silently took their leave.
“Is it really okay to leave Senior Brother Zhai alone there?” Xia Ning Shang still wasn’t quite at ease.
“It was his own decision,” Yang Kai said indifferently replied.
“But…” Xia Ning Shang seemed to want to say something more.
“It might not be a bad thing. When one day you cultivate successfully and make the continent regain its vitality, whether Senior Brother Zhai leaves or not will be the same.”
Xia Ning Shang nodded, indicating that she understood. After thinking for a while, she asked, “Where shall we go now?”
“Let’s go to Zhongdu. There should be a shortcut to the star field over there. Just find a we both know! Yang Kai smiled slightly.
Moments later, the two of them arrived at the territory of the Xiaoyao Divine Sect. Through the Void Tunnel, they entered a place not far from the Lingxiao Pavilion.
After the seal set up by the Great Demon God was lifted that year the Tongxuan Continent and the Zhongdu World were connected. That Void Tunnel had always existed in the original territory of the Xiaoyao Divine Sect. Yang Kai was not unfamiliar with this.
The world on this side of Zhongdu was the starting point of his life.
After arriving, Yang Kai’s spiritual sense swept through and immediately noticed that there were many more people in the original Lingxiao Pavilion. He didn’t know which family or small sect had occupied it. It still felt quite prosperous.
Yang Kai didn’t bother them. Now the warriors here were as weak as children in his eyes.
He also didn’t go to Zhongdu. Among the original eight great families in Zhongdu, the three families that had a close relationship with him were all in the Mysterious Realm Pearl. The remaining five families were now multiplying and living in Zhongdu. Yang Kai didn’t bother to pay attention.
He brought Little Senior Sister and flew directly towards the Cangyun Evil Land.
Although Little Senior Sister was the Star Master of the Tongxuan Continent, in this world of Zhongdu, she couldn’t travel thousands of miles in an instant. There were its own laws of heaven and earth here, forming a separate world.
Yang Kai originally didn’t know how this world was formed. But in the process of witnessing the birth, prosperity, and decline of the Tongxuan Continent, he faintly felt that the Zhongdu World should have something to do with the ancient and powerful warriors.
Perhaps, it was also possible that it was opened by those peerless powerhouses with cultivation.
The Cangyun Evil Land was as chaotic as ever. In the past, with the jurisdiction and suppression of several great evil kings, although this land gave birth to filth and evil, there was still a little rule to abide by.
But since those great evil kings either died or disappeared, the Cangyun Evil Land had completely become a chaotic and evil place.
All kinds of people, from all walks of life, are here. Burning, killing, looting, all kinds of things will happen. Here, there is no reason at all. The bigger the fist, the more reasonable it is.
The two of them have seen and heard all kinds of crazy and heinous things along the way.
Yang Kai can still remain calm, but Little Senior Sister can’t help it. She gave a hard lesson to several shameless and bullying guys, which can be regarded as calming her anger.
Fragrant Cloud City was originally a city under the jurisdiction of the charming queen Shan Qingluo, and it was also the last piece of pure land in the Dark Cloud Evil Land.
But since Shan Qingluo disappeared, this last piece of pure land has also been polluted, and the city is in darkness and chaos.
When passing by here, Yang Kai naturally couldn’t help but recall it for a while.
That year, he got to know and became familiar with that enchanting woman on this land. But later, when Yang Kai returned from the Tongxuan Continent, he never saw her again.
He thought that he would never be able to meet Shan Qingluo again in this life.
But unexpectedly, during the trip to the Emperor’s Garden, he learned of her whereabouts and even met her and fought side by side.
Yang Kai has some difficulty forgetting this extremely charming enchanting woman…
The place he is going to this time is the Spider Mother’s Nest. According to what Bi Luo, Shan Qingluo’s personal maid, said that day, she and Shan Qingluo were sent to the Demon Star Emperor Chen and directly into the star field because they accidentally opened the altar in the Spider Mother’s Nest.
Therefore, Yang Kai also wanted to make use of that altar. If successful, not only could he drop by to see how that enchanting woman was doing, but also save a great deal of time.
He didn’t want to spend several more years on the battleship just for traveling.
The Spider Mother’s Nest wasn’t too far from Fragrant Cloud City, only a few tens of thousands of miles away. At Yang Kai’s current speed, it only took him half a cup of tea’s worth of time to arrive.
The Spider Mother’s Nest was as it always was, dilapidated. After it collapsed back then, no one paid any attention to this place anymore.
After arriving here, Yang Kai familiarly entered the interior of that huge spider statue and easily found a strange altar.
That altar was only about one person tall, but there were many complicated and profound patterns engraved on it, as if it was a mysterious formation, and also somewhat like ancient characters.
Yang Kai released his spiritual sense to sense it, but didn’t detect anything unusual.
However, on the altar, there were still some dark traces remaining.
That was the blood that Shan Qingluo shed that day!
