Chapter 1739
by“Do I have to tell you about my relationship with him？ Elder Cui, don’t you talk a little too much？” Luo Lan looked at the other party with disgust.
The martial artist with the surname Cui chuckled softly： “If you don’t want to say it, then don’t. Why be so overbearing？”
As he spoke, he looked at Yang Kai again with a sinister gaze and said in a creepy tone： “Kid, the Lost Land is very dangerous. Don’t die in there.”
Yang Kai gave him a sideways glance, with an indifferent expression and no intention of answering.
This made the martial artist with the surname Cui very angry. It was okay for Luo Lan to brush his face in public. After all, Luo Lan was also an elder of the Sword League like him, and her strength was not inferior to his. But Yang Kai, a mere Returning Void 3-layer Realm martial artist, dared to be so arrogant. Naturally, he found an excuse to flare up.
However, before he could make a move against Yang Kai, a cold snort came from not far away： “What a joke. If you have disputes within the Sword League, solve them early. What are you bringing them here for？ Do you want me to be a referee for you two to fight first？ The winner stays and the loser gets out！”
The person who spoke was wearing a dark purple robe, with a resolute face and a natural air of authority, exuding an oppressive atmosphere all over his body.
Upon hearing this, the martial artist surnamed Cui and Luo Lan couldn’t help but change their complexions slightly.
Luo Lan smiled awkwardly and said, “Let Mr. Ni laugh. I didn’t mean that.”
The martial artist surnamed Cui also laughed and said, “Mr. Ni doesn’t have to care. I was just joking with Elder Luo.”
“Hmph！” Mr. Ni snorted coldly, not paying any attention to Luo Lan and the martial artist surnamed Cui at all, and said coldly, “If that’s the case, then be quiet and don’t disturb me！”
Both Luo Lan and the martial artist surnamed Cui had extremely embarrassed expressions. They didn’t say a word anymore. However, the martial artist surnamed Cui still stared at Yang Kai coldly, as if he wanted to remember Yang Kai’s appearance in his heart.
Just arriving here, he was targeted by a Void King Realm martial artist for no reason, which made Yang Kai’s mood very bad.
“That guy’s name is Cui Hong. He’s an elder of our Sword League and a life-and-death friend of Li Minghai. They’re both from the vice-league leader’s faction. When we enter the Lost Land later, you must be careful and don’t leave my side. If he doesn’t dare to deal with me head-on, he will definitely target you.” Luo Lan’s voice quietly entered Yang Kai’s ears, explaining to him.
Yang Kai nodded imperceptibly and also quietly asked, “Then who is Mr. Ni？ You all seem to be very afraid of him.”
“His name is Ni Guang. He’s from the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce.” Luo Lan replied, “He has the cultivation base of the Second-Order Void King Realm. Do you think Cui Hong and I are afraid of him？”
“So that’s the case！” Yang Kai understood and looked up in the direction of Ni Guang.
As he looked, he happened to meet the gaze of a person beside Ni Guang.
Yang Kai was stunned.
The owner of that gaze, however, had a smile on his lips, with a strange light in his eyes, staring at Yang Kai with great interest, his eyes bright.
Yang Kai’s expression turned bitter, and he almost cursed. He quickly averted his gaze, lowered his head, and, with the action of supporting his forehead with his hand, covered half of his cheek. He silently chanted in his heart： You can’t see me, you can’t see me, you can’t see me…
This was obviously a bit of self-deception…
After following Luo Lan here, Yang Kai didn’t observe the martial artists who arrived here earlier too carefully. It was not until this moment that he discovered that there was actually an old acquaintance of his standing beside Ni Guang.
That person was as handsome as a jade tree in the wind, with a tall and slender figure. His skin was fairer than that of a woman, seemingly as tender as if it could be broken by blowing and beating, and as white as frost and snow. There was a modest smile on his face. That smile was enough to drive any woman crazy, and even men would look at him for a while longer.
He held a folding fan in his hand, looking suave and unrestrained. No matter what kind of young hero, in front of him, would have an inferiority complex. He seemed to be born to be high above！
He was simply the pronoun of perfection!
This guy… wasn’t it Xue Yue, the Third Young Lady？
The last time he met Xue Yue was in the Imperial Garden. Everyone had a fierce fight. Fortunately, with the closing of the Imperial Garden, Yang Kai successfully got rid of her entanglement. Unexpectedly, this time when he came to the Lost Lands, he actually met her again.
However, thinking about it, it wasn’t strange. The Lost Lands were full of opportunities and risks. Although its existence was only known to a few powerful people, the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce, as one of the most powerful forces in the star field, obviously also knew about the Lost Lands.
This time, they even dispatched a powerful person like Ni Guang and brought a Xue Yue here for training, which was also understandable.
In the blink of an eye, all kinds of thoughts flashed through Yang Kai’s mind, making him understand the current situation.
Immediately, he sighed, raised his head, and looked directly into Xue Yue’s eyes, grinning at her with a posture of a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.
Xue Yue was stunned for a moment, as if she didn’t expect Yang Kai to be so bold. With Ni Guang by her side, he still dared to look at her. Suddenly, she was a little angry and gave Yang Kai a fierce glare, which was really charming.
With her current handsome appearance as a talented man, making such a gesture was really a bit unseemly. People who didn’t know the truth might think that there was something wrong with Xue Yue’s inner somewhere if they saw it. But Yang Kai knew her background clearly Seeing her deflated Yang Kai smiled even more happily.
Yang Kai had always been a bit confused about the relationship with Xue Yue.
Saying that they were enemies, they didn’t reach the point where they had to fight to the death. It was nothing more than that Yang Kai knew Xue Yue’s biggest secret and Xue Yue wanted to kill him to silence him.
But Xue Yue didn’t really put the matter of killing to silence into action. Even when she sent people to pursue Yang Kai on Rainfall Star, she still held back and only sent two warriors with not strong strength, and was finally counter-killed by Yang Kai.
Saying that they were friends, it was also impossible for them to be loyal to each other and go through fire and water for each other.
The most likely situation was that Xue Yue felt that she had been taken advantage of by Yang Kai, so her heart was angry and she wanted to teach him a lesson to make him remember. However, her life was still saved by Yang Kai. Between gratitude and venting her anger, Xue Yue was also in a dilemma and very.
Yang Kai didn’t know how to deal with the relationship with her, and Xue Yue was equally confused.
If she was an ordinary woman, it would be fine, but she happened to be the successor that Ai Ou, the president of the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce, placed high hopes on. Perhaps in the future, Xue Yue would become the person at the helm of the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce. The identity of a woman would definitely not support her to stand at the top of the chamber of commerce!
The secret she hid could not be exposed！
The eye contact between the two people naturally couldn’t be hidden from the Void King Realm powerhouses here. Luo Lan looked at Yang Kai in surprise and asked in a low voice, “Do you know that youth？ Do you know who he is？”
“I know and I also know him.” Yang Kai nodded.
Luo Lan was Stunned and said, “Your social circle is so wide？”
Luo Lan had only heard of the famous Third Young Master Xue Yue but had never seen him. The reason why she could recognize Xue Yue at a glance was entirely because Ni Guang’s attitude towards Xue Yue seemed very modest.
Ni Guang was also a powerful and influential figure in the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce. Rather, he had a humble attitude towards a Void Return Third Layer Realm. Besides Xue Yue, who else could make him do this?
Ordinary Void Returning Realm cultivators don’t even have the qualification to meet him and would only be submissive when standing beside him.
Moreover, Xue Yue’s appearance is the same as the rumors, enough to charm thousands of people, killing both men and women, old and young！ Even a strong person like her couldn’t help but take a few more glances after seeing Xue Yue.
“Are you friends？” Luo Lan asked again.
“Hehe…” Yang Kai didn’t know how to answer this question either. After a moment of hesitation, he said, “There are some entanglements between me and her.”
“Entanglements…” Luo Lan’s heart sank. She subconsciously thought that there might be some hatred between Yang Kai and Xue Yue. If that was really the case, then her situation would be bad.
While the two of them were whispering here, Ni Guang and Xue Yue also seemed to be talking about something. As the two of them communicated, Ni Guang kept looking over at Yang Kai’s side, as if he was very interested in him.
Yang Kai felt bitter in his heart. He didn’t know what Xue Yue had said to Ni Guang. If she was speaking ill of him behind his back, Ni Guang might very well make a move on him here.
With such thoughts in his heart, he secretly tell Luo Lan to run away quickly if the situation was bad and not to think about the Lost Land anymore.
How could Luo Lan dare not agree？ In her heart, she also somewhat regretted dragging Yang Kai over. If she were alone, although the danger would increase greatly, she wouldn’t have been targeted even before entering. Only Cui Hong alone, she wasn’t afraid of, but Ni Guang was different. The cultivation base of the Void King Two-layer Realm was enough to make Luo Lan shy away.
Over there, the conversation between Ni Guang and Xue Yue seemed to come to an end. This Void King Two-layer Realm powerhouse looked at Yang Kai with bright eyes, and a pair of eyes emitted a substantial divine light, as if he wanted to see into the depths of Yang Kai’s heart.
Yang Kai felt the pressure like a mountain, staring at Xue Yue without speaking.
Xue Yue smiled innocently, and with a swish, the folding fan in her hand opened, gently shaking it twice, looking like a refined young master.
During the days of confronting Yang Kai, she rarely saw Yang Kai’s embarrassed appearance. Now, with the power of Ni Guang, making Yang Kai have a hard time speaking out, Xue Yue was extremely happy in her heart！
“Young man, would you like to come to my side？” Ni Guang suddenly asked.
As soon as these words came out, the Void King Realm powerhouses scattered around all had a stunned expression, and they all looked at Yang Kai with strange expressions, sizing him up and down.
No one knew why Ni Guang would suddenly invite a Returning Void Three-layer Realm martial artist, and this martial artist also came with Luo Lan of the Sword Union.
This blatant act of poaching left everyone confused.
If it were said that Yang Kai was so powerful that he could be on a par with Ni Guang, and Ni Guang wanted to draw someone into an alliance to jointly explore the Lost Land, it would be understandable.
But Yang Kai was just a Void Return 3-layer martial artist. What ability could he have to catch Ni Guang’s fancy？
Yang Kai also didn’t expect things to develop like this. He had thought that Xue Yue would speak ill of him in front of Ni Guang so that Ni Guang would take action to teach him a lesson. So when Ni Guang issued the invitation, he was also stunned for a moment and looked at Xue Yue suspiciously, wanting to know what she was up to.
Xue Yue smiled triumphantly, still shaking the folding fan in her hand from time to time as if she was here to enjoy the scenery. The expression on her face was unpredictable.
Damned woman！ Yang Kai cursed in his heart.
