Chapter 2339
byThe cold long sword shatters the sky and goes forward bravely, just like Luo Bing’s cold and resolute heart.
This sword strike was doomed to miss, because the gap in strength between Luo Bing and Yang Kai was too great. Before she could even reach him, Yang Kai had already disappeared with the wooden boat.
But this sword strike just didn’t miss.
A tall and sturdy figure suddenly appeared in front of Luo Bing, looking at her with pity and complexity in his eyes.
Luo Bing couldn’t stop in time. Youdaoplaceholder0 by a soft puchi sound the long sword directly pierced into the chest of this tall and sturdy figure. The sword went in three inches, and blood spattered.
Luo Bing was instantly stunned on the spot, and her whole person was in a daze. She stared blankly at the great figure and lost her voice: “Brother Chai!”
The person who suddenly blocked in front of her and let the long sword pierce into his chest was actually Chai Hu.
With Chai Hu’s cultivation at the first level of the Dao Source Realm, it would be absolutely easy for him to avoid this sword strike. Even if he didn’t want to avoid it, he could easily block it by simply circulating his source power. But he didn’t do that. Instead, he let Luo Bing vent this sword strike.
Luo Bing, who was determined to die, finally panicked. She had come here to ambush and surprise attack, and she had no intention of going back alive. She couldn’t kill Yang Kai, and she also wanted to die at Yang Kai’s hands and reunite with her father in the underworld.
She had come here with the determination to die, but she had actually injured Chai Hu.
Chai Hu’s chest was quickly soaked in a dark red color. Luo Bing’s pupils dilated instantly, and that expanse of dark red seemed to block all the light in front of her eyes, filling her entire world with this terrifying blood-red light.
The huge mental impact made Luo Bing’s delicate body go limp, and she almost fell to the ground.
Chai Hu reached out and supported her. Not only did he support her, but he also directly grabbed her arms and then slowly dragged her towards himself.
Luo Bing simply had no strength to resist. It didn’t matter that she was dragged over by Chai Hu, but the sharp sword in her hand was still inserted in Chai Hu’s chest! As she moved, the sharp sword was also inserted deeper.
Chi chi chi…
The sound of metal rubbing against flesh and blood was so harsh. In the blink of an eye, the long sword penetrated through the chest, and Luo Bing’s beautiful face instantly turned snow-white. She shouted in panic: “Brother Chai, what are you doing? You stop quickly!”
But no matter how much she shouted, Chai Hu remained unmoved.
Chi Yue and the others also all changed their complexions greatly. They never expected that Chai Hu would actually do such a thing. By the time they reacted, Chai Hu had already pulled Luo Bing’s entire person to his chest and whispered in her ear: “Young Master Yang killed your father. I have repaid it for him. Don’t take action against him.”
“Stop, stop! I won’t take revenge anymore, I won’t seek revenge from him anymore. Brother Chai, let go!” Luo Bing burst into tears. Feeling the warmth seeping from her chest, how could she not know that it was Chai Hu’s blood? She was completely at a loss, her heart filled with self-blame. She felt that if it weren’t for her overreaching and causing a ruckus here, Chai Hu would never have done this.
She hadn’t known Chai Hu for a long time and wasn’t very familiar with him either. But when she was in the most difficult and dangerous situation, it was Chai Hu who arrived like a divine soldier descending from the sky and saving her from the abyss of suffering. Even though Chai Hu had his own motives for saving her, Luo Bing could never forget that suddenly appearing majestic figure.
The feelings of a young girl was suddenly touched at that moment and a figure was branded in the softest part of her heart.
These months of wandering made her miss that sense of security even more. The subtle feelings were like aged wine in a cellar, continuously fermenting in her heart. The figure buried in her heart became clearer and clearer, and could not be shaken off.
But at this moment, when they met again, her long sword actually stabbed into the other person’s chest, Youdaoplaceholder0 through and almost taking half of the other person’s life. Was more than ten years of living in comfort and without worry just for this moment of heart-wrenching pain?
If so, she would rather have lived a frugal life for these more than ten years just to ensure his safety and well-being.
“Get out of the way!” In a fury, Chi Yue waved a hand and directly sent Luo Bing flying and she landed heavily on the ground.
Ghost Ancestor and the others also hurriedly stepped forward to check on Chai Hu’s injury.
After Luo Bing landed, she didn’t care about her own situation at all. Instead, she crawled and ran towards Chai Hu. Her pretty face was already in a mess from crying, and her face was full of self-blame and regret.
After a while, Ghost Ancestor gently let out a breath and said, “Fortunately, the heart vein wasn’t injured. It’s not too serious.”
As he spoke, he reached out and took out a pellet and stuffed it into Chai Hu’s mouth. With a vibration of source power, he shook the long sword flying out, and then the power and poured it into his body to help him resolve the medicinal effect and heal his wounds.
“I’ll take him back to heal first.” Ghost Ancestor said as he picked up Chai Hu and flew towards the direction of Thousand Leaves Sect.
Before leaving, Chai Hu coughed lightly and said, “Don’t make things difficult for her. She also has her own difficulties.”
Chi Yue sighed and said, “What a mess this is.”
Today’s incident was inexplicable. but Chi Yue also saw some problems. Her fourth brother and this little princess of Heavenly Crane City seemed to have some kind of situation.
In a short while, the others all left cleanly, and only Chi Yue was still standing there with furrowed brows.
And Luo Bing was kneeling on the ground, looking in the direction where Chai Hu had left, crying bitterly, and murmuring in her mouth, “I don’t seek revenge anymore, Big Brother Chai, don’t die!”
She kept repeating this sentence, and her tears fell like pearls with a broken string, but she forgot that Chai Hu had already gone far and couldn’t hear at all.
Seeing her like this, Chi Yue couldn’t help but feel a touch of compassion, and said in a deep voice, “He won’t die, the wound you inflicted on him with that sword is not serious.”
When Luo Bing heard this, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Chi Yue, crying with relief, “Thank you, thank you!” As she spoke, she clasped her hands together, faced the sky, closed her beautiful eyes, and let the tear marks slide down her cheeks.
“Alas, you take care of yourself.” After Chi Yue finished speaking, her figure flickered and she also chased after the crowd and left.
Only Luo Bing was left alone, devoutly praying, and the desolate and beautiful meaning filled the wilderness.
……
A month later, Yang Kai came to a city called Gao City.
This city is probably located on the border of the Southern Region and is not far from the Eastern Region.
The reason why he came here was because he was going to the Huangquan Sect to ask that Yin Lesheng for some news about Xiao Xiao. According to his speculation, after Xiao Xiao came out of that starlight passage, the possibility of falling together with Yin Lesheng was very high.
As for how to inquire at that time, Yang Kai could only play it by ear. He couldn’t directly seek out Yin Lesheng. After all, there was still enmity between the two of them, and the other party also knew that he possessed the Star Source.
The Nether Spring Sect was in the Eastern Territory and had quite a bit of power. It was definitely a sect that could rival the Qingyang Temple.
All this information was told to him by Ye Hen. Moreover, Ye Hen also told him that in the entire Star Boundary, the Southern Territory had the fewest cultivation resources and the relatively thin spiritual energy between heaven and earth. Therefore, the overall level of martial artists was relatively lower.
However, in the other three great domains, the overall level of martial artists was much higher than that of the Southern Territory. Just take the Eastern Territory for example. There were definitely no less than ten powerful sects like the Nether Spring Sect, while there were only four in the Southern Territory. The gap could be seen.
There was also a hegemonic sect in the Eastern Territory. The Nether Soul Palace founded by the Nether Soul Great Emperor among the Ten Great Emperor Venerables was in the Eastern Territory.
There were even rumors that the famous Spirit Beast Island and Dragon Island were both on the East Sea, but no one could confirm whether this was the case. After all, these two great divine islands were too illusory for ordinary martial artists.
It seemed that under the influence of the Nether Soul Great Emperor, many sects and martial artists in the Eastern Territory had cultivated some evil techniques. For example, the Nether Spring Sect was one of them. Therefore, the cultivation atmosphere in the entire Eastern Territory was completely different from that of the Southern Territory.
When traveling in the Eastern Territory, one must be careful everywhere. Maybe at any time, one would encounter people who did evil and wanted to take your life.
During this one-month period, Yang Kai passed through many cities and used the space array in those cities. Otherwise, it would definitely be impossible to reach Gao City on the border of the Southern Domain in one month.
Just relying on flight, with Yang Kai’s current speed and cultivation level, it might not be possible to reach here even after flying for decades. The vastness of the Star Boundary exceeded his imagination.
After arriving in Gao City, Yang Kai didn’t rush to enter the Eastern Domain. Instead, he first found an inn and stayed there.
Because this is the junction of the Eastern and Southern Domains, in Gao City one can not only see the martial artists from the Southern Domain but also many martial artists from the Eastern Domain. He stayed here just to inquire about the general situation of the Eastern Domain, especially the situation of the Huangquan Sect, so as not to rush into the Eastern Domain blindly and be completely ignorant.
On the streets of Gao City, among the continuously flowing martial artists, the auras emitted by many of them are unruly evil and violent. Even their appearances are fierce and ferocious, terrifying at first sight, and it is obvious that they come from some sects in the Eastern Domain.
Moreover, the law and order in Gao City is extremely chaotic. Although there is also the City Lord’s Mansion and there are powerful people sitting in town, Yang Kai has only been here for less than a day and has already witnessed several fights, and even a few people died.
This kind of thing is absolutely unimaginable in Fenglin City. Not to mention Fenglin City, even in some other cities in the Southern Domain, such a thing would not happen.
When those brawls took place, Yang Kai clearly felt that the auras of many powerful individuals were hidden all around. But no one tried to stop them at all. It was not until the brawls ended that those hidden powerful individuals suddenly appeared, arrested all the brawlers, stripped off the spatial rings of the dead martial artists, and left the corpses lying on the street without bothering about them.
These powerful individuals were obviously from the City Lord’s Mansion. Judging from their actions, it seemed that they couldn’t wait for the martial artists to engage in bloody battles within the city so that they could have an excuse to arrest people and thus some extra income for themselves.
Yang Kai had no intention of provoking trouble. He wanted to find a teahouse or a restaurant to stay for a few days first because in these places, there were all kinds of people, and he could overhear some information that he wanted.
After asking around, Yang Kai headed towards the largest Yueting Teahouse in Gao City.
In a short while, Yang Kai arrived in front of this teahouse. Looking around, this teahouse was built extremely impressively. It was as high as five floors. In this chaotic and extremely valuable place, to have such a teahouse, it could be seen that the background of the owner of this teahouse was not small, and it was very likely to be related to the City Lord’s Mansion.
Yang Kai stepped in, and immediately shop a clerk enthusiastically welcomed him.
