Chapter 2031

By the time Yang Kai returned to Fenglin City, it was already dark.

He entered the city with ease and went straight to the cave.

Yang Kai opened the restriction of the cave and dodged into it.

Before he could stand still, he heard a happy voice suddenly coming over： “Sir, you’re back？”

Yang Kai couldn’t help but be stunned. After turning his head to look over, he suddenly remembered that there was still a person in his cave, the little girl Zhang Ruoxi from the Zhang family！

He has been out of these years and is basically alone. Now that there is suddenly someone else accompanying him he is really not used to it. Moreover, these days he has been busy with the matter of Liuyan and almost forgot the existence of Zhang Ruoxi.

After coming back to his senses, Yang Kai nodded slightly at her.

“Sir has been busy for several days and worked hard outside.” Zhang Ruoxi lowered her head and said softly.

Her voice was very low. If it weren’t for the extremely quiet cave, Yang Kai might not have been able to hear it.

His gaze swept over her body, and Yang Kai found that this little girl seemed a little nervous. Her two small hands were twisting the corner of her clothes, and she had a rather fidgety feeling.

“Master, who is this little girl? She seems very afraid of you.” Liuyan’s voice sounded in his heart, with a hint of teasing. “Looking at her strength, it’s not high. Could it be that the master abducted and tricked her from somewhere? However… the little girl is really good-looking, with a good appearance and a good figure. Tsk tsk…”

Before Liuyan could finish speaking, Yang Kai’s mind moved, and he directly threw her into the Mysterious Realm Pearl, cutting off the connection with her.

Inside the small Mysterious Realm, Liuyan was stunned for a moment, and then snorted： “Guilty conscience！”

After saying that, she skillfully found the place where the True Essence of the Sun was located, turned into a firebird, wrapped the True Essence of the Sun, and devoured the True Fire of the Sun to strengthen herself.

In the cave, Yang Kai looked at Zhang Ruoxi. Under the other party’s uneasy waiting, he said, “Have you been waiting here all the time？”

If she hadn’t been waiting here all the time, it would be impossible for him to see her as soon as he entered the cave.

“No, this servant girl just walked here.” Zhang Ruoxi replied with her head lowered.

Yang Kai naturally wouldn’t believe her. He turned his head to look around and found that the cave seemed to have been cleaned once and was as clean as new. He couldn’t help but smile and say, “Sit down, I have something to tell you.”

Zhang Ruoxi quickly waved her hand and said, “No need, sir. This servant girl can just stand.”

Yang Kai sighed. With a wave of his hand, he pulled her over and, in a state where her whole body was stiff, pressed her onto the chair to sit down, while he walked to the opposite side and sat on another chair.

After carefully considering his words for a while, Yang Kai said, “Ruoxi, it’s okay if I call you like this, right？”

Zhang Ruoxi slowly shook her head and didn’t say a word.

Yang Kai smiled. He tried his best to soften his tone and said, “Since you don’t speak, then I’ll take it as okay. Here’s the thing. I brought you out of the Zhang family not because I want you to repay me or do anything to you. My matter with the Zhang family is just because of the agreement with your great-grandfather Zhang Gaoxuan. So now I and the Zhang family have settled accounts, and neither owes the other anything.”

“Sir has done a great kindness to the Zhang family. Ruoxi will surely keep it in mind. I will be a slave and a horse for the rest of my life to repay sir！” Zhang Ruoxi said softly. Although her voice was soft, her tone was extremely firm.

Yang Kai nodded and said, “Think whatever you want. I just want to tell you that the reason I brought you out of the Zhang family is that there may be some things that I need your help with in the future.”

Zhang Ruoxi still lowered her head and said, “If sir has any orders, Ruoxi will surely try her best to do them well. Since sir has brought me out of the Zhang family, I am no longer a member of the Zhang family. What sir wants me to do, I will do. As long as sir is happy.”

Yang Kai rubbed his forehead, feeling rather like playing the lute to a cow. He was extremely helpless and could only say, “If you say so, I don’t know how to explain it to you. Well, don’t call me sir anymore, and don’t call yourself a slave either. I’m a little older than you. In the future, you can just call me Big Brother Yang.”

“How can that be？” Zhang Ruoxi raised her head and waved her hands again and again. Finding that Yang Kai was looking at her, she quickly lowered her head again and said, “This is absolutely not possible. The slave cannot be rude to sir！”

“Your brain…” Yang Kai was amused by her.

Zhang Ruoxi’s expression panicked. Thinking that Yang Kai was really angry, she quickly got up and was about to kneel down.

Seeing this, Yang Kai reached out and flicked his hand, and she fell back down again.

“Forget it, I won’t bother with you about this. But now that you’re by my side, there will be times when I need your help in the future. Naturally, I won’t treat you unfairly. Take this thing first.” As Yang Kai spoke, he took out a jade bottle from the Space Ring, opened the cap, and poured out a spirit pill with pill patterns from it.

“What is this？” Zhang Ruoxi curiously took a look.

“A poison. Do you dare to eat it？” Yang Kai said seriously. As soon as he finished speaking, he knew he was being a bit mischievous and couldn’t help but despise himself in his heart.

Zhang Ruoxi, however, pursed her lips and smiled, saying, “Sir is lying to me.”

Yang Kai’s expression was a bit embarrassed, and he didn’t explain too much. Instead, he said, “Take this thing, and then find a bedroom by yourself and practice well. I’m going out in a few days. You stay here obediently and don’t run around.”

“Is sir going out again？” Zhang Ruoxi looked up at Yang Kai, pursed her lips, and asked, “Does sir need this servant girl to serve by your side？”

“No need. Just take care of yourself.” Yang Kai stood up, smiled slightly, and walked straight towards the room where he usually practiced.

After Yang Kai left, Zhang Ruoxi looked at the spirit pill again. After looking at it for a while, she couldn’t see anything special. She reached out and picked it up and sniffed it at the tip of her nose. She found that a fragrant smell came to her face. As her beautiful eyes flickered, she didn’t know what she was thinking. Her face flushed slightly, and she put the spirit pill into her mouth with her fingers.

The spirit pill entered her abdomen and immediately turned into a stream of heat, surging towards all her limbs and bones.

Zhang Ruoxi’s complexion changed, and she didn’t dare to be negligent. She quickly rushed into the smallest bedroom, sat cross-legged, and silently circulated her profound energy.

The spirit pill she took was naturally the Leopard Solution Washing Marrow Pill that Yang Kai had spent hundreds of thousands of source crystals took the photo. With the help of this spirit pill, before Zhang Ruoxi promoted to the Void King Realm, her own qualifications would obtain a full growth, and it would also greatly shorten the time required for cultivation.

Although the little girl is young, she has a lot of knowledge. Naturally, she knows that such a spirit pill with pill patterns is of great value. Perhaps even exhausting the financial resources of the entire Zhang family may not necessarily be able to obtain such a spirit pill.

In her heart, she was naturally very grateful for Yang Kai’s generosity.

On the other side, in the room, after Yang Kai saw that Zhang Ruoxi had taken the Leopard Solution Washing Marrow Pill and went to meditate and practice, he then waved his hand and activated all the restrictions in the room.

Immediately, he took out nearly ten spatial rings and began to sort out the harvest this time.

Half an hour later, Yang Kai looked at everything neatly sorted in front of him with a delighted expression.

Among these nearly ten spatial rings, there were more than eight million source crystals alone. Among them, Han Leng’s source crystals were the most, almost six million in total.

Come to think of it, at the auction, Han Leng bid over six million for the Flowing Flame in order to compete with Ningyuan City. If he didn’t have that many source crystals in hand, how dare he casually open his mouth？

Such a large number of source crystals simply made Yang Kai ecstatic.

He had previously worked hard to accumulate only one million source crystals, and after the auction, he spent hundreds of thousands more. Now, he has actually obtained over eight million all at once.

It seems that for a long time in the future, Yang Kai will not have to worry about source crystals.

In addition to the huge number of source crystals, there are naturally also some pills and the like. However, these pills are of no use to Yang Kai. As an alchemist, he also looks down on them a bit, but they can also be taken out and sold.

The harvest in terms of secret treasures is also not small. In addition to the exquisite building ship still lying in the Little Mysterious Realm, Yang Kai has harvested as many as three Dao Source-level secret treasures alone.

One of them is exactly the long sword that Han Leng used before. Although it is only at the lower grade of the Dao Source level, it is still enough to satisfy Yang Kai.

The other one is a piece of armor that Ningyuan City has. It is not known what material this armor is refined from, and its grade is also the lower grade of the Dao Source level. However, as a defensive secret treasure, its value is naturally a notch higher than that of the long sword.

The third one was naturally the Moyu Cauldron that Han Leng had previously won in the auction. This was a middle-grade Dao Source-level alchemy furnace with many magical effects. Han Leng had spent a huge amount of financial resources to purchase it, and probably never expected that it would soon benefit Yang Kai.

Besides these three Dao Source-level secret treasures, the others were all Void King-level secret treasures. Together, they were also of considerable value.

There were also some materials, including medicinal herbs for alchemy and minerals for weapon refining, all neatly organized by Yang Kai.

Among all the things here, what Yang Kai cared about the most was a token-like thing.

If Yang Kai remembered correctly, this thing should have been found out from Han Leng’s spatial ring.

The token was not big, only the size of a palm, golden and shiny. On the front, there was a lifelike pattern of a real dragon raising its head and wagging its tail, and on the back, there was a flamboyant “dragon” character written in ancient characters.

Yang Kai released his spiritual thoughts and also used his own strength to carefully examine this token, only to find that he couldn’t even identify its material. Searching through the information in his mind, he still had no idea what this token was used for.

However, since it could be carefully placed in the spatial ring by a strong person like Han Leng, the origin of this token was probably extraordinary.

Yang Kai resolutely threw it into the Mysterious Realm Pearl and waited to study it slowly in the future.

After that, he put away those pills and secret treasures, released his spiritual sense, and noticed that Zhang Ruoxi was using the Leopard Solution Marrow Washing Pill to improve her body. After finding that the progress was smooth, he stood up leisurely.

Half a day later, in the black market of Fenglin City, Yang Kai sold off many of the spoils he had accumulated recently.

The black market in Fenglin City accepts all kinds of goods, and buyers will not inquire about the origin of these things. Although the prices are much cheaper than outside, the advantage is that it is safe and hidden enough.

Yang Kai didn’t sell all of them in one store either. Instead, he found several more stores to avoid being noticed by others.

During the whole process, he also disguised himself and used his spiritual sense to shield his appearance. He believed that with the level of these martial artists in Fenglin City, no one could see through his true face.

When Yang Kai returned from the black market, the number of source crystals in his hand had exceeded the ten million mark, and he suddenly became extremely wealthy.
