Chapter 1845
byThe young man in the room turned out to be Shentu! The son of Aio, the president of the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce, and also Xue Yue’s second brother!
When Yang Kai was in trouble on the Xuankong Continent back then, Shen Tu was also among them. Both of them had low strength at that time, just at the Saint Entry Stage. Shen Tu’s cultivation was slightly higher, only at the Third-Order Saint Entry Stage.
The two cooperated with each other on the Xuankong Continent and also formed a certain friendship.
Later, after escaping from the Xuankong Continent, Yang Kai also followed Shen Tu to the main star of the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce, Shuiyue Star. Since that parting, it has been dozens of years.
Yang Kai never expected to meet this guy on Purple Star, so he was very surprised.
Shen Tu looked at Yang Kai and couldn’t believe his eyes. It wasn’t until Yang Kai took the initiative to say hello that he rubbed his eyes vigorously and exclaimed in a low voice, “Yang Kai?”
“It’s Yang!” Yang Kai smiled hehe.
“Why are you here?” Shen Tu frowned tightly and asked in surprise.
It’s a long story. Brother Shen Tu, can you ask these… um, to calm down? Yang Kai looked at the other four warriors who were glaring at him with malicious intentions.
Shen Tu nodded slightly and shouted in a low voice, “Stop! Brother Yang… is an old acquaintance of mine!”
The four Void Return Stage warriors looked at each other in dismay and withdrew their Saint Yuan one after another. Yang Kai saw that they no longer had any abnormal movements, so he dispersed his Domain.
In an instant, everyone in the room regained their freedom.
“You’ve actually reached the Void King Realm?” Shen Tu was shocked by Yang Kai’s sudden appearance just now. It was only now that he belatedly noticed Yang Kai’s true cultivation level, and his face couldn’t help but be filled with shock.
Back then, his cultivation level was a little higher than Yang Kai’s, but after so many years, he was only at the First-Order Void Returning Realm. In contrast, Yang Kai had actually reached the Void King Realm. When compared, Shen Tu was naturally extremely shocked.
You know, it’s not that easy to break through from the Void Returning Realm to the Void King Realm. Throughout the ages, how many outstanding talents have been stuck at this juncture for a lifetime and couldn’t make any progress, feeling frustrated and unfulfilled.
Every martial artist who can break through to the Void King Realm not only has outstanding talent, but also indispensable luck and opportunity.
“Just a fluke.” Yang Kai chuckled.
Shen Tu slowly shook his head. As the son of the president of the Heng Luo Chamber of Commerce, his eyesight and experience were naturally extraordinary. How could he believe Yang Kai’s words of fluke? He knew that the other party was being modest. However, this was not a good opportunity to discuss this matter. He frowned and looked at Yang Kai solemnly, whispering “Brother Yang, you suddenly appeared here. I just want to ask one thing. Are you my… friend or foe?”
“A friend… not an enemy!” Yang Kai said sincerely.
Shen Tu’s expression lit up, and he couldn’t help but laugh heartily. He actually stepped forward and gave Yang Kai a bear hug, patting his back vigorously and saying, “Brother Yang, after decades of separation, I’ve been very concerned about you!”
His sudden enthusiasm made Yang Kai a little embarrassed.
Shen Tu said, “Back then, you left Shuiyue Star on that battleship. Later, I learned that something happened to the battleship, and almost all the martial artists on board were wiped out. Since then, there has been no news of you, which made me feel extremely guilty!”
“That has nothing to do with you. It was just a coincidence.” Yang Kai felt his sincerity, and his heart was also warm.
Back then, when he left Shuiyue Star, he casually took a battleship. Who would have thought that Xue Yue would also want to take a free ride. It was precisely because of the existence of Xue Yue that the battleship had a disaster.
When it advanced to a meteorite sea, it was bombed to pieces by a powerful secret treasure lurking there. All the martial artists on the entire battleship were killed or injured. Only he and Xue Yue escaped.
It was also that time that he accidentally discovered the secret that Xue Yue was a woman, and then there was the following thing.
After a while, Shen Tu let go of Yang Kai and said with emotion, “Over the years, I have also been inquiring about your news. The third brother seems to know something, but no matter how I ask, he won’t say. If I ask too much, he will even beat me up!
Shen Tu gritted his teeth and looked very angry: “This bastard, without any respect for elders. If it weren’t for his stronger strength than me, I would definitely teach him a good lesson.”
Yang Kai’s mouth twitched. He thought that Xue Yue had lost all her dignity in front of him that time. She was bullied by him while naked. Wouldn’t it be asking for trouble if you asked her about these things?
“Now it’s all right. Finally saw you.” Shen Tu let out a heavy sigh, as if he wanted to spit out all the pent-up anger in his heart for decades. The whole person felt much more relaxed.
“I have always been safe and sound. Thank you for Shen Tu’s concern.”
“Second Young Master, this is…” Those few Void Returning Jing cultivators had been watching from the side. It was not until this moment that someone finally spoke up and asked.
Shen Tu laughed and introduced, “This is Brother Yang Kai. He and this young master have a life-and-death friendship. Quickly come and meet Brother Yang!”
When the few people heard this, they didn’t dare to be negligent. They all cupped their fists and said in unison, “Greetings, Lord Yang!”
Yang Kai was a Void King Jing powerhouse and was on a first-name basis with Shen Tu. Of course, they couldn’t be disrespectful.
Shen Tu touched his chin and thought for a moment. Then he said, “That’s right. Since Brother Yang is now in the Void King Jing , shouldn’t I also call him Lord?”
“Brother Shen Tu is joking!” Yang Kai waved his hand. “I’m rather curious as to why you are here and… it seems like you are being detained.”
Upon hearing Yang Kai’s words, Shen Tu immediately became somewhat indignant and cursed, “Damn it, this young master is also confused. This time, upon receiving the instructions from the Chamber of Commerce, I came to deliver a batch of ordered supplies to Purple Star. Who would have known that once I entered Purple Star City, I would be captured by someone. I couldn’t figure out the reason no matter how I asked. What bad luck!”
“Purple Star didn’t say any reason for capturing you?” Yang Kai was extremely astonished. “Don’t they know that you are from the Heng Luo Chamber of Commerce?”
“How could they not know?” Shen Tu said with an angry expression. “I think these people on Purple Star have eaten the courage of a bear and a leopard. They actually dare to attack this young master. One day when this young master escapes, I will definitely lead a hundred warships and level Purple Star to the ground!”
A thoughtful look emerged on Yang Kai’s face. “So, the battle in the city during the day was the commotion caused by you?”
“Yes.” Shen Tu nodded. “I originally wanted to escape but failed and was captured again. So embarrassing.”
“Second Young Master, this old man feels that there might be a change on Purple Star!” An old man with a sallow complexion said beside them.
“Why does the old gentleman say so?” Yang Kai looked at him.
“It’s just a feeling. Ever since entering this Purple Star City, I’ve felt something wasn’t quite right. It seems there’s some sort of undercurrent surging. Moreover, since they know our identities and still dare to detain us, obviously they want to use us to do something… Although Purple Star is powerful, it’s not stronger than our Hengluo Chamber of Commerce. With something like this happening, if there’s no change in Purple Star, I won’t believe it.
Yang Kai nodded slightly: “I also think there will be a change in Purple Star.”
“Who cares? This young master just wants to leave this damned place quickly.” Shen Tu said indignantly. Suddenly, he looked at Yang Kai again and asked, “By the way, Brother Yang, why did you appear here?”
“Hehe, I came to steal something.” Yang Kai smiled awkwardly and told them what had just happened.
Several people were dumbfounded and looked at Yang Kai with admiration.
Daring to sneak into the Purple Star Palace to steal things this kind of courage and boldness is not something ordinary people can have. Moreover, being able to leave safely even after being discovered made everyone have a higher evaluation of Yang Kai’s strength.
“But now that we’ve alerted the enemy, we can only think of another way.” Yang Kai helplessly rubbed his forehead.
“Brother Yang, can you leave here?” Shen Tu looked at Yang Kai and asked.
That layer of prohibition outside is very powerful. If I force my way out I will definitely be discovered. But if you help me attract attention, I can leave safely.”
“No problem, leave it to us.” Shentu grinned. “Brother Yang, after leaving here later, help me bring a message to someone.”
“Who?” Yang Kai looked at him suspiciously.
Shentu leaned forward and whispered a word in Yang Kai’s ear.
Yang Kai suddenly showed a strange expression.
“Then everything will be left to Brother Yang!” Shentu said seriously, cupping his fists.
“Don’t worry, the message will definitely be delivered.” Yang Kai nodded. “You guys also don’t be impatient, I will find a way to get you out.”
“It’s okay.” Shentu laughed heartily. “My identity is different. Those people in Purple Star don’t dare to do anything to me, unless they want to cause a bloodbath between the two major forces.”
After saying that, he suddenly let out a loud shout and started yelling: “Murder, murder!”
While shouting, he winked at several other Void Returning Jing warriors.
Everyone immediately understood and also shouted loudly, randomly attacking while shouting. The Saint Yuan fluctuated and the energy rioted.
The movement in the room was quickly transmitted outside. The several Purple Star warriors in charge of guarding outside changed their expressions and listened intently.
After a while, one of them exclaimed: “Not good, these people have gone crazy. Quickly stop them.”
Everyone didn’t dare to be negligent and quickly opened the prohibition, pouring in.
Just as the restriction was opened, Yang Kai’s figure flickered and rushed out of the room, finding a hidden corner to hide in.
In the Purple Star Palace, there were still powerful experts searching everywhere, but still without any results.
After waiting for a long time, Yang Kai found a suitable opportunity, and left calmly.
Although this trip did not go according to the original plan, but unexpectedly learned about Shen Tu’s situation, it was not without any gain.
In the Tongtian Auction House, in the inner courtyard, Li Nuo sat cross-legged, but could never calm down, only feeling upset.
“Who!” Just at this moment, outside suddenly came Aunt Chun’s exclamation.
At the same time, a man’s voice rang in Li Nuo’s ear. When hearing this voice, Li Nuo’s body stiffened, but soon, a look of surprise and joy appeared on her face, and she quickly looked up towards the window.
It was pitch black outside, only a touch of fish-belly white appeared in the east.
The night was over and dawn broke!
A smile appeared on the corner of Li Nuo’s mouth, and she said, “Aunt Chun, come back. The comer has no malicious intent and instead brings me good news!”
