Chapter 194

Two hundred thousand taels is already a lot. Are you still not satisfied？” Bai Yunfeng’s brows furrowed slightly, and he looked at Yang Kai with some displeasure. They had also acquired many martial skills these days, but they had never offered such a high price to anyone. If it weren’t for hearing that the power of that martial skill was extraordinary, how could he be so generous？”

The brat is a bit unappreciative！ Bai Yunfeng snorted coldly. He was a young master of the Bai family. Even if that martial skill was really worth two hundred thousand taels, you would still have to sell it to me for one hundred thousand taels！

Seeing that this person was a bit angry, Dong Qinghan couldn’t sit still anymore. Pretending not to be familiar with Yang Kai, he fanned the flames on the side and said, “Brat, Dong also raises the price. Two hundred thousand taels, plus a bottle of the Xuan Yuan Pill by the Dong family. How about it?

Bai Yunfeng and Fan Hong both looked at Dong Qinghan in surprise. They didn’t expect that he would be willing to take out the Mysterious Yuan Pill. This was a middle-grade Earth-level spirit pill. Although the grade was not too high, the effect was definitely liked by people. Taking one pill to assist in cultivation could get twice the result with half the effort.

Was that martial skill really of such great value？ That’s right. Dong Qinghan had talked with this Yang Kai for a long time before and must have known something about that martial skill, so he was willing to offer a bottle of Mysterious Yuan Pills.

“Twenty thousand taels, plus a top-grade Mortal-level secret treasure！” Fan Hong immediately raised his offer.

Dong Qinghan frowned and said, “Brother Fan, this is malicious competition.”

Fan Hong didn’t speak. It was Bai Yunfeng who took over and said, “Brother Dong, what are you talking about? That martial skill has extraordinary power. Since everyone wants it, of course, we have to use various means. It’s only fair that the one with the highest price gets it. This young master offers three hundred thousand taels, plus a top-grade Mortal-level secret treasure, and it’s a defensive secret treasure！”

Fan Hong was stunned when he heard this and said with a bitter smile, “Brother Bai, you are really willing.”

At this price, even he didn’t dare to offer it. He didn’t expect Bai Yunfeng to be so decisive.

Dong Qinghan also smiled and said, “Since Brother Bai is determined to win, then Dong will not compete with you anymore. If we continue to compete, it will also hurt the harmony.”

Bai Yunfeng laughed heartily and cupped his hands at the two of them： “Concession, concession！ After this matter is over, I will definitely set up a banquet to apologize to the two of you！”

The three people continued to bid, chatting merrily. From the looks of it, it seemed as if the ownership of the Star Mark had already been determined, completely ignoring Yang Kai’s opinion.

Yang Kai furrowed his brows and said indifferently, “I didn’t say I wanted to sell this set of martial skills, did I？”

Bai Yunfeng’s smile immediately froze on his face. Fan Hong was also stunned for a moment.

“Thirty thousand taels, plus a top-grade mortal-level defensive secret treasure. Isn’t that enough to offset the value of that martial skill? Kid, don’t be too greedy. Otherwise, you might lose both people and wealth.” Bai Yunfeng’s expression was cold and severe, and he threatened in a cold voice.

Cao Zhengwen, who was standing behind Bai Yunfeng, also sneered and said, “Yang Kai, don’t be ungrateful. The price offered by Young Master Bai is already fair enough. What else do you want？”

Bai Yunfeng unfolded his folding fan, crossed his legs, and looked at Yang Kai leisurely, fanning gently, with a look of disdain and contempt on his face.

Dong Qinghan continued to muddy the waters and deliberately said, “Oh？ Do you want to join our forces？”

Bai Yunfeng and Fan Hong furrowed their brows. They couldn’t help but think of this possibility.

Before the two could speak, it was Cao Zhengwen who coldly said, “Young Master Bai, this person has been in Lingxiao Pavilion for three years but has only cultivated to the third level of the Body Tempering Realm. He is a trial disciple of Lingxiao Pavilion. Such a person with mediocre qualifications is destined to have no future. Recruiting him into the Bai family will only disgrace the family’s face. Young Master should think twice.”

Before his voice fell, Yang Kai suddenly flicked his hand. A cup of wine in front of him shot out and directly splashed on Cao Zhengwen’s face.

The expressions of the people at the table changed suddenly, especially Bai Yunfeng, whose face became extremely ugly.

“Yang Kai, you are courting death！” Cao Zhengwen was furious. He was about to take action to attack, but was blocked by Bai Yunfeng.

“Kid, beating a dog still depends on its owner.” Bai Yunfeng looked at Yang Kai coldly, “If you don’t give me a satisfactory explanation today, you can never leave here alive.”

“An explanation?” Yang Kai’s expression was indifferent, and his voice was plain. “My martial art is of the Profound Rank. Is this explanation enough?”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the crowd changed again, and even Dong Qinghan was stunned on the spot.

Profound Rank！

Previously, the crowd guessed that the martial art Yang Kai mastered might be of the Heaven Rank, but they never expected it was actually of the Profound Rank.

Even first-class forces like the Dong family, the Bai family, and Ziwei Valley don’t have many Profound Rank martial arts. Any Profound Rank martial art is the secret of these big forces, and only the future pillars of the family are absolutely not allowed to practice.

“Is this true?” Dong Qinghan’s voice trembled slightly. He cursed inwardly, Damn it! If I had known it was a profound-level martial skill, why would I have watched the show? I could have just exchanged it with my cousin and there would be no problem. Now, Bai Yunfeng and Fan Hong, these two idiots, have also gotten involved. I’m afraid this matter will be difficult to end.”

“In the Inheritance Cave Heaven, my strength is only at the seventh level of the Open Heaven Realm. I was able to severely wound a sixth-order beast. Do I still need to say more about the grade of this martial skill? Yang Kai snorted lightly.

Several people’s breaths became hot. When they looked at Yang Kai again, there was no longer the previous contempt and disdain. Each of them had their eyes shining.

“The conditions just now remain the same. You can join my Bai family as a disciple.” Bai Yunfeng took a deep breath and made a decision. Exchanging a disciple’s identity for a profound-level martial skill, the Bai family would definitely make a great profit. As for Yang Kai’s treatment after joining the Bai family, it would depend on his own qualifications.

“I can represent the Purple Star Valley to accept you as a disciple and provide you with a good cultivation environment.” Fan Hong also hurriedly spoke up.

“I’m not interested in joining any of you.” Yang Kai also didn’t bother to waste any more words with them. “If you want my martial skill, fine. Take out a martial skill of the same profound level to exchange！”

Fan Hong frowned, his expression strange： “You want our secret techniques？”

“They are both profound level. Everyone exchanges, and no one suffers. What? Isn’t it this deal fair? Yang Kai looked at him was indifferent.

Bai Yunfeng sneered and said, “That’s impossible. The secret techniques are just that, secrets. Except for the direct disciples of the Bai family, outsiders are not allowed to practice them.”

“Then there’s nothing to talk about.” Yang Kai stood up and was about to leave the table.

“Want to leave？” Bai Yunfeng’s expression changed, and he suddenly sneered, reaching out to block Yang Kai’s way. “If you don’t hand over that martial technique today, you won’t be able to leave here.”

The deal fell through, and Bai Yunfeng was going to rob by force. He really didn’t take a mere disciple of the Lingxiao Pavilion seriously.

“Scram！” Yang Kai had long been displeased with him. Now that he saw him make a move, there was no hesitation. He threw a fierce punch.

Bai Yunfeng snorted coldly and greeted with a palm.

With a loud bang, the fierce Yuan Qi burst out, and the small wooden house suddenly fell apart.

Swish swish swish, several figures rushed out from inside.

Dong Qinghan, Bai Yunfeng, Fan Hong, Yang Kai, as well as Cao Zhengwen and another disciple of the Lingxiao Pavilion, all of them were in a sorry state with dusty faces.

“How dare you attack me！” Bai Yunfeng was furious and his expression was ferocious. In that previous exchange, although he didn’t suffer a loss, he also didn’t do anything to Yang Kai. He was just a little surprised that the other party’s Yuan Qi was so vigorous. Clearly, he was only at the first level of the Lihe Realm, yet he was able to block his attack, which was quite unexpected.

“Young Master Bai, you are of noble status and need not bother with him. Let me vent your anger for you！” Cao Zhengwen volunteered. Just now, he was splashed with wine in the face by Yang Kai and lost a great deal of face, so naturally he wanted to get even. Moreover, he had already submitted to the Bai family and now naturally wanted to find an opportunity to show himself off well.

As long as he beats Yang Kai up and relieves Bai Yunfeng’s anger, wouldn’t there be less benefits for him in the future？

Bai Yunfeng nodded coldly: “Break his hands and feet for me and let him know the consequences of disrespecting me. A mere disciple of a small How dare sect be so presumptuous!

“Young Master, don’t worry. I’ve long wanted to teach this junior a lesson.” Cao Zhengwen sneered again and again, looking at Yang Kai from a distance of more than ten zhang and raising his voice： “Junior Brother Yang, don’t say that I, as your senior brother, don’t give you a chance. As long as you kneel down now and crawl in front of Young Master Bai and kowtow a few times, maybe Young Master Bai will spare you. Otherwise, you will inevitably suffer some hardships.”

Yang Kai looked at him sarcastically： “After becoming someone else’s dog, your tone has also become much more arrogant.”

Cao Zhengwen’s face turned red and his expression was cold and stern： “Young Master Bai has shown me kindness. So what if I submit to him？ Even the elders in the sect haven’t said anything. What right do you have to accuse me？”

“If you humiliate yourself, do you still expect others to look up to you？”

“Originally, considering we are fellow disciples, I didn’t want to make things too difficult for you, but since you are seeking your own death, don’t blame this senior brother for being cruel and ruthless.” Cao Zhengwen took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, circulated the Yuan Qi in his body, and without further ado, launched his movement technique and was about to rush towards Yang Kai.

But as soon as his footsteps moved and he hadn’t had time to rush out, his eyes blurred, and Yang Kai, who was more than ten zhang away, actually appeared in front of him in an instant.

A look of astonishment appeared on Cao Zhengwen’s face, and then his complexion changed drastically, and he hurriedly launched a move.

Yang Kai casually blocked, resolved his move, and the fist glow flickered with firelight, and the Yan Yang Triple Explosion was blasted out.

It hit the chest right on. In an instant, Cao Zhengwen’s complexion turned pale, his chest caved in, and his footsteps staggered, using the backward movement to resolve the force of Yang Kai’s fist.

Just managed to widen the distance from Yang Kai, but the fierce Yuan Qi that poured into his body exploded.

Three muffled sounds, and Cao Zhengwen opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Wounded with one move！ This change left everyone stunned on the spot.

Although Cao Zhengwen’s strength wasn’t that strong, he also had the cultivation base of the fifth layer of the Lihe Realm. But such a person was actually punched and spat out blood by Yang Kai.

Although it was with the help of the power of the martial technique, Yang Kai’s own unpredictable speed was really intimidating.

Cao Zhengwen clearly didn’t expect Yang Kai to be so powerful. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, before he could even regain his senses, Yang Kai actually pounced on him again. In a panic, he was flustered ly blocked but how could he block it? After hurriedly exchanging a dozen moves, he was hit by another punch.

A clear sound of bones breaking came from his chest, and Cao Zhengwen’s forehead was covered in cold sweat from the pain.

Yang Kai’s expression was cold, and his moves were fierce. Every punch was aimed at Cao Zhengwen’s vital points. After a fierce attack for a while, Cao Zhengwen could only defend and had no power to fight back.

Ten breaths later, Cao Zhengwen’s vision blurred. Yang Kai flew up and kicked, and Cao Zhengwen immediately flew out like a broken cloth bag and fell to the ground, unable to get up again.

He wasn’t dead, but he didn’t know how many bones in his body were broken. At least he had to lie down for several months to recover.
