Chapter Index

An old man and a young man both stared at Yang Kai’s departing back, remaining silent for a long time. The old man’s expression was solemn, but the young man seemed very interested in Yang Kai, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

After Yang Kai’s back disappeared from sight, the young man smiled slightly and said, “Interesting!”

The old man, however, snorted coldly and said, “Rude brat!”

The young man looked at the old man in surprise and asked, “Why does Old Ji say so?”

Ji Jun snorted and said, “That brat has already discovered that I and the Second Young Master are hiding here. I’m afraid he also knows that the change in Qu Zheng’s attitude just now is related to us, but he didn’t mean to thank us and left on his own. What else is it if not rude?”

The young man was slightly startled and said, “This person can even discover where Old Ji is hiding?”

Ji Jun nodded and said, “The Second Young Master may not have seen clearly. Before leaving, that person looked in our direction, obviously having already discovered us.”

The young man raised his eyebrows and said, “Old Ji is a strong person at the peak of the first layer. The power of his spiritual sense is not inferior to that of an ordinary second-layer person. Since he can discover Old Ji, doesn’t it mean that this person really has the cultivation base of the second layer?”

Ji Jun frowned slightly. After pondering for a moment, he said, “I dare not spy too obviously, so I can’t judge what kind of cultivation this person has. Although Lu Tianfeng has had direct contact with him, according to what Lu Tianfeng said, he can’t see the other party’s background either… It seems that even if this person is not as good as me, I’m afraid he is not far behind. As for whether he is at the two-layer realm, it remains to be verified.”

The young man grinned and said, “Good, good! No wonder he dares to be so wild. A person with ability should look like this. This young master likes it.”

“Second Young Master…” Ji Jun looked at the young man hesitantly. “Do you want to recruit this person?”

The young man nodded. “That’s right. In Zixing City during this period of time, there have been undercurrents. The side led by the Great Elder has been actively acting and has already encroached on many places that they shouldn’t. If this young master doesn’t act anymore, then the surname of Zixing will have to be changed.”

Ji Jun’s complexion changed slightly. He coldly snorted and said, “The Great Elder and the others are courting death. When the master returns, he will definitely hold them accountable. But Second Young Master, you… You have been lying low for so many years. Why are you in such a hurry this time? Although the master and the eldest son have been missing for almost two years, after the master left two years ago, he said that he and the eldest son went to handle important matters and would return soon. In case the master comes back and finds out that Second Young Master you… Second Young Master, you should know. With the master’s ability, there are really not many people in the star field who can threaten him, and even fewer who want to kill him. He will come back sooner or later.”

A hint of faint worry flashed in the youth’s eyes and quickly disappeared. He smiled and said, “What Elder Ji said is right, but it’s not that this young master is in a hurry, but… time waits for no one. Moreover, I am doing this for the sake of my Purple Star Family, not for my own personal desires. Even if father comes back, he won’t blame me much.”

“I hope so.” Ji Jun nodded with some worry. Seeing that the youth insisted, he didn’t persuade anymore.

“Elder Ji, with your vision, do you think it’s possible for me to recruit this person?” The youth stared at the direction where Yang Kai left and asked.

“Everyone has a price, it depends on whether Second Young Master can afford it. Cater to his preferences and then act.”

“What Elder Ji said is right.” The young man smiled slightly. “In that case, it seems that we have to first find out what he likes. Tsk tsk, the third Venerable of Purple Star… This power cannot be underestimated. At this critical moment, we must never let him slip away from my hand!”

As he spoke, he clenched his fist, as if he wanted to grip the entire world, and his purple hair fluttered…

Yang Kai, who was bringing Hua Youmeng, had just returned to the Five Elements Chamber of Commerce when he couldn’t help but frown and looked inside.

He found that there was actually a Void King Realm powerhouse in the chamber of commerce. At this moment, he was sitting in the side room of the backyard. He didn’t know what he was doing, and that aura was extremely strange and not owned by Lu Tianfeng.

Gao Hong hurriedly greeted them from inside the chamber of commerce, with a look of anxiety on her face.

“Sister Hong, what’s wrong?” Hua Youmeng looked at Gao Hong suspiciously.

Gao Hong glanced at Yang Kai and said softly, “The Eighth Elder is waiting in the back hall… This sir!”

“The Eighth Elder?” Hua Youmeng’s mind went blank, and she almost couldn’t stand still. Her beautiful eyes looked at Yang Kai complicatedly, and her heart was uneasy.

Ever since Yang Kai appeared in the Five Elements Chamber of Commerce, these big shots who were usually only heard of but not seen in person had come to the small territory of the Five Elements Chamber of Commerce one after another. Hua Youmeng suddenly had a dreamlike feeling.

The small Five Directions Chamber of Commerce was like an invisible whirlpool, pulling these big shots in one by one.

What worried Hua Youmeng was that any one of these big shots could crush the Chamber of Commerce to powder with just a flick of a finger. And now the Eighth Elder had actually come. He was the grand-uncle of that Jiang Chao earlier. Could the Eighth Elder’s arrival have something to do with what had just happened?

Hua Youmeng suddenly panicked and could only look at Yang Kai pleadingly and say, “My lord.”

Yang Kai furrowed his brows: “Let me go and take a look.”

Although he had already expected that once he took out that Venerable Order, it would surely attract countless troubles, he really didn’t expect the troubles to come so quickly.

The Eighth Elder of Purple Star, Yang Kai had never met before, but he was definitely a Void King Realm powerhouse. He didn’t know what he wanted to do with himself. However, the other party’s arrival should have nothing to do with Jiang Chao. After all, the time was too urgent and the other party couldn’t have taken action so quickly.

So it seemed that the Eighth Elder was looking for him for something else.

In the back hall, an old man with a pale complexion and no beard was waiting with a gloomy face and an extremely impatient expression. It was Jiang Changfeng, the Eighth Elder of Purple Star. Xia Jingwu, Yao Qing, Hai Tang and others were all standing below, with smiles on their faces and not daring to take a deep breath.

How could they have ever seen such a big shot? Although they had been hanging around in Purple Star City for quite some time, the people they dealt with were all Martial Artists at the Return to Void Saint King Realm. They hadn’t seen a single Void King Realm expert who was so high and mighty.

Even when Lu Tianfeng came last night, they hadn’t come into such close contact with him.

But today, an elder with a higher status than Lu Tianfeng had come! And this Eighth Elder’s mood didn’t seem very good. The pressure he was exuding, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Make Xia Jingwu and the others’ blood boil. They could only suppress it. Otherwise, they would have spat out a mouthful of blood long ago.

Is this what you call tea? Jiang Changfeng, who was impatient from waiting, casually picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. Then he flew into a rage and smashed the teacup on the ground, shouting, “You have a lot of nerve! This elder has come here in person, and yet you entertain this elder with such inferior tea? Don’t you put this elder in your eyes!

Xia Jingwu was so scared that he trembled and was directly kneeling on the ground by the other party’s momentum. He trembled and said, “Eighth Elder, please have mercy! The villain doesn’t dare! This Qishan Cloud and Mist Tea is the best tea in our Five Directions Chamber of Commerce.”

is This the best tea you have? It’s like trash! Jiang Changfeng snorted coldly, his face showing displeasure.”

Xia Jingwu couldn’t help but smile wryly. He thought to himself, What is your identity and status? The tea you usually drink is far beyond what a small chamber like ours can compare to.

This Qishan Yunwu Tea is something that the people of the Five Directions Chamber of Commerce can’t get enough of, but in front of the Eighth Elder, it is rated as garbage.

Haitang and Yao Qing looked at the spilled tea on the ground, and both their eyes flash a look of distress. This thing they usually don’t even dare to drink and all of it is used to entertain distinguished guests.

“Your Excellency, please calm down. This tea is probably not to your taste. How about I go out and buy some better tea leaves for you?” Xia Jingwu accompanied carefully.

“Hmph, no need.” Jiang Changfeng’s face was gloomy. “This elder didn’t come here to drink tea. Where is the person I’m looking for? Why hasn’t he shown up yet?”

“This…” Xia Jingwu turned his head and looked out the door, but didn’t find anyone at all. He couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead: “Back to the Eighth Elder, that adult went out with our early in the morning, and we don’t know where he went.”

Can’t you go and look for him? Jiang Changfeng’s temper was very irritable. As he spoke, he waved his hand and sent out a gust of strong wind, rushing towards Xia Jingwu and the others, and shouted: “I’ll give you one stick of incense time. If you can’t find the person…

“What will you do?” Before Jiang Changfeng’s words were finished, a faint voice came from outside the door. As soon as this voice sounded, a person suddenly appeared in the room. That person blocked in front of Xia Jingwu and the others, and with a light raise of his hand, he wiped out the strong wind he had attacked.

“Sir!” Xia Jingwu and the others stared at Yang Kai’s back, overjoyed. “You’re finally back.”

Yao Qing and Haitang also looked at Yang Kai with grievance on their faces. Although they weren’t familiar with Yang Kai, just because Yang Kai had made a move to help them earlier, it made several people grateful to Yang Kai.

Both being Void King Realm, compared with this Eighth Elder, Yang Kai was simply extremely great.

Yang Kai frowned and looked at Xia Jingwu and the others. A trace of anger flashed across his face. He reached out and pulled them up one by one and said, “You guys go out.”

“Yes!” ” Xia Jingwu and the others obeyed him without question. Hearing this, they all ran out of the room. When they reached the backyard, they gasped for breath and their faces turned pale.

In the room, Yang Kai turned around and looked at Jiang Changfeng coldly, sneering, “You have quite a great prestige!”

Jiang Changfeng frowned and sized up Yang Kai. His spiritual thoughts flickered back and forth, seemingly wanting to spy on Yang Kai’s cultivation. But the next moment, he found that he couldn’t see through the other party’s foundation.

Just as he was about to withdraw his spiritual thoughts, his face changed in horror because in this instant, the other party’s body seemed to turn into a vortex, pulling his spiritual thoughts and continuously sinking into it.

Jiang Changfeng was horrified and desperately urged his own spiritual thoughts to break free.

The vortex that had been pulling at his spiritual thoughts vanished strangely.

Jiang Changfeng was unable to stop in time, and his sea of consciousness suddenly churned, like a stormy sea.

A muffled grunt rang out, and he couldn’t help but take a few steps back. His face paled slightly, and it was clear that he had suffered a slight internal injury.

A cold smile on Yang Kai’s lips as he looked at him sarcastically.

That smile made Jiang Changfeng feel extremely embarrassed. How could he not know that he had kicked a iron plate? Forcing himself to look composed, he said angrily, “What does this friend mean?”

“What do you think I mean?” Yang Kai snorted coldly.
