Chapter 2534
by“Speak, why did you attack this adult!” Someone glared at the bitter gourd face and shouted sternly.
The bitter gourd face gritted his teeth tightly. Although the pain was unbearable, he remained silent.
“Hehe, it seems he’s still a tough nut to crack. It’s inevitable that we’ll have to extract his soul and refine it to find out the truth.” Another person approached with a sinister smile.
“Hahaha!” The bitter gourd face suddenly burst into wild laughter. The laughter was so crazy that everyone was stunned.
After a moment, his laughter subsided, and he said coldly, “Want to extract my soul and refine it? Then you have to have the guts. Do you know which sect and where I come from? If you dare to harm a single hair of mine, your sects and families will surely be in turmoil in the future!”
Everyone’s complexion changed upon hearing this. The bitter gourd face’s posture of “I have a background and a great origin” really made everyone feel wary.
After thinking about it carefully, since he dared to attack a Sovereign Realm, he must have some reliance. Maybe he is really a disciple from a top sect. Otherwise, why would he attack a Sovereign Realm here for no reason.
Maybe Yang Kai has some grudges with this top sect, so this person would attack and kill him here.
Previously, because they had been saved by Yang Kai and were grateful for his kindness, the crowd hadn’t thought much about it. Now that they had come to their senses, they realized that this matter was full of strangeness everywhere.
“Hahaha, scared?” The bitter-faced man took in the expressions of the crowd and couldn’t help but sneer again and again. each person should sweep the snow in front of their own door and not care about the frost on others’ tiles. Go do what you should do and don’t be in front of me…”
Pa…
Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Ruoxi had suddenly flashed in front of him and slapped him.
This bitter-faced man was directly stunned. Stars were flashing in front of his eyes, his head was dizzy, and he didn’t come back to his senses for a long time. Under that slap, more than a dozen of his teeth flew out and blood was flowing out of his mouth.
Yang Kai was surprise attack although it was a narrow escape. But it still made Zhang Ruoxi extremely angry. She never expected that there would be such an ungrateful person in the world. Yang Kai had just saved his life, and he actually wanted to kill him right away.
Such a person is simply not worthy of death.
If she hadn’t suppressed the anger in her heart, I’m afraid this slap would have killed him.
Others were afraid of this bitter-faced man, but Zhang Ruoxi had nothing to be afraid of.
It seemed that because she was really angry, an unimaginable violent aura spread out from Zhang Ruoxi’s body, making her whole person look like a crazy beast.
Everyone was stunned and stared at her blankly. None of them expected that this girl who was as beautiful as a celestial being would have such a terrifying side…
“The wind howl has stopped, and the evil spirits have also dispersed. Farewell, everyone!” Yang Kai’s expression remained unchanged as he said lightly.
When the others heard this, after just a little thought, they knew what Yang Kai meant.
No matter what kind of grudge there was between him and this long-faced man, no matter what background this long-faced man had, it was not something that others could interfere with. Nor did he need others to interfere.
Since they were afraid, then what was the use of staying here? It would be better to get out of sight and avoid getting burned.
After figuring this out, someone immediately clasped their fists and said, “I will remember the kindness of the adult in my heart. I wish the adult can return with a full load from the ancient land. I’ll take my leave first!”
After saying that, this person extremely simply rushed out of the cave and quickly disappeared into the strange fog.
With someone taking the lead, the remaining people also saw the situation clearly. Soon, they all said goodbye and left one after another.
Moments later, Yang Kai turned his head and looked at Qi Hefeng with great interest, saying, “Aren’t you leaving?”
Everyone else had left. Only he remained, which inevitably made Yang Kai have some speculations.
Qi Hefeng shook his head and said, “Qi still has something to say to the adult.”
Yang Kai chuckled and said, “You recognize me!”
This was not a question but an affirmation. Earlier, when Qi Hefeng was introducing himself, he had looked at Yang Kai intentionally or unintentionally. At that time, Yang Kai suspected that he might recognize him, and now it was completely certain. Otherwise, why wouldn’t he leave but stay alone.
Upon hearing this, Qi Hefeng couldn’t help but smile sheepishly. “Sir has seen through it.”
Yang Kai said, “Was it Qi Hai who told you?”
Qi Hefeng said seriously, “It was the Young Lord. After the Young Lord returned from the Broken Star Sea a few days ago, he condensed the image of sir in front of us, asking us to keep an eye out for the Lord. Because sir had said to the Young Lord in the Broken Star Sea before that he would come to the Eastern Region.”
Yang Kai snorted and said, “I only said I would come to the Eastern Region, but I didn’t say I would come to this ancient land. It’s just too coincidental that you are exactly guarding here.”
Qi Hefeng said awkwardly, “To let sir know, the restaurant in that deserted city… is the industry secretly supported by my Qi Family.”
Yang Kai suddenly understood. No wonder the boss of that restaurant would give him ten jars of wild wine for no reason before he left It turned out that he had already been recognized by the people of Qi Family Castle at that time.
“The news came from there that sir was going to enter the ancient land, so we came in early and dispersed along the passage to wait! Qi Hefeng explained while observing Yang Kai’s expression, for fear of making Yang Kai unhappy.
Yang Kai was naturally not very happy. With a cold expression on his face, he said, “The reach of your Qijia Fort is really long enough.”
Qi Hefeng looked terrified and said, “Your Excellency, please calm your anger. We didn’t mean to spy on Your Excellency’s whereabouts. It’s just that the Young Fort Master…”
“I know!” Yang Kai coldly snorted and said, “It’s the Heavenly Frost Earthly Rain. You go back and tell Qi Hai that I can’t solve this poison! Because the antidote is no longer on me.”
“Ah?” Qi Hefeng was greatly shocked and stammered, “Then… then where is it?”
Do I need to tell you where it is? A cold light flickered in Yang Kai’s eyes. The Phoenix True Fire was a major matter. Although Yang Kai believed that Qi Hai wouldn’t reveal the news of the Phoenix True Fire, if he was a careful person, as long as he consulted more ancient books and records he would know that he was so eager to find himself to help detoxify, which must be related to the Phoenix True Fire.
At that time, it would cause trouble for himself for no reason.
So Yang Kai was very dissatisfied with Qi Hai’s actions this time. He didn’t promise Qi Hai anything at that time. He just told him that he would go to the Eastern Region once in the future. Who would have known that such a thing would be involved.
“Dare not! Qi Hefeng was greatly shocked and quickly clasped with his head lowered.
“Alright, you can go. Also, tell Qi Hai again that if he dares to spy on my whereabouts like this again, I will personally go to Qijia Fort to pay him a visit.” Yang Kai waved his hand with a look of impatience on his face.
Qi Hefeng’s complexion changed. Although the power of Qi Family Fort was not bad, if they really angered a Great Emperor Realm like Yang Kai, their future days would not be easy. But since the matter assigned by the Young Fort Master was not completed, he didn’t know how to reply.
After thinking for a while, he clasped his fists and said, “Sir, there is one more thing Qi wants to tell you.”
Yang Kai looked at him coldly and said, “If it’s about detoxification, there’s no need to say it. If you say one more word, I’ll throw you out.”
Qi Hefeng quickly said, “It’s not about detoxification, but about… this person!”
As he spoke, he pointed at the bitter face.
Yang Kai said in surprise, “You know his background?”
He was actually also very curious. He had just arrived in the Eastern Region not long ago, and just entered this ancient land passage, yet someone actually wanted to assassinate him. He didn’t know what kind of hatred it was!
Qi Hefeng replied, “Sir, if Qi is not mistaken, this person comes from Huangquan Sect!”
“Huangquan Sect!” Yang Kai narrowed his eyes, turned his head to look at the bitter face over there whose complexion was distorted due to pain, and then turned his gaze back and said indifferently, “How to prove it!”
Qi Hefeng said, “Because a month ago, many disciples of the Huangquan Sect entered the ancient land passage. According to the information inquire by my Qi family disciples, after these people from the Huangquan Sect entered this place, they did not immediately flee into the ancient land but have been staying in the passage, seemingly waiting for someone. The leader is an elder of the Huangquan Sect named Hua Feichen, who has the cultivation base of the second level of the Emperor Respect Realm.”
“Hua Feichen…” Yang Kai murmured, extremely unfamiliar with this name.
Qi Hefeng said, “You may not know Hua Feichen, but there is another person whom you will surely not be unfamiliar with!”
“Who!”
“Yin Lesheng!”
Yang Kai’s eyebrows raised, and he grinned and smiled: “He is also here? Well, well, it’s really a small world.”
Qi Hefeng looked Stunned , not knowing what Yang Kai was happy about. The Huangquan Sect had quite a few people come this time, and there was also a strong person at the second level of the Emperor Respect Realm. It’s okay if Yang Kai wasn’t afraid, but why was he so happy?
He should only have the cultivation base of the first level of the Emperor Respect Realm. Because the Young Castle Lord said that when he met him in the Broken Star Sea that day, he was only at the third level of the Dao Source Realm. Even if he got some opportunity in the Broken Star Sea and was promoted to the Emperor Respect Realm, he definitely couldn’t be the opponent of an old-fashioned strong person like Hua Feichen.
“We didn’t know what the people of the Netherworld Sect were ambushing in the passage for before, but our Qijia Fort is the local force here, so naturally we paid more attention. It was not until you suddenly arrived in the Desolate City that the Young Fort Master suddenly realized that the Netherworld Sect must be going to deal with you. After all, it is said that you had a very unpleasant dispute with Yin Lesheng in the Broken Star Sea and there seems to be some resentment. But we don’t know where they got the news that you would come to the ancient land and then wait for your arrival.” Qi Hefeng had a blank look on his face.
“Of course they know.” Yang Kai snorted coldly.
The news of Xiaoxiao in the ancient land was personally told to himself by Yin Lesheng.
With the urgency he showed at that time, Yin Lesheng must have also guessed that he would come to the ancient land to look for Xiaoxiao’s trace. He just needed to gather people and lie in wait here, and sooner or later he could wait for himself.
It seems that he suffered a big loss in the Broken Star Sea last time, and this guy has been harbouring a grudge and is eager to take revenge. It hasn’t been long since the Broken Star Sea was closed, and this guy can’t wait to set a trap for himself to fall into and kill himself.
And that bitter face should be their informant arranged outside to spy on his whereabouts. But unexpectedly, this guy was too eager to make contributions. Seeing that he was exhausted, he actually launched a sneak attack, and as a result, all his efforts were in vain.
“Let’s see how you die this time!” Yang Kai sneered.
The last time he let Yin Lesheng go was because he wanted to inquire about the whereabouts of Xiao Xiao. The two of them signed a soul contract, and they were both bound. Even if Yang Kai wanted to kill him, he was powerless.
But now that he has come to his door on his own, Yang Kai naturally won’t be polite anymore.
Chapter Two Thousand Five Hundred and Forty-Six It’s Him
“My lord, that Hua Feichen is an elder of the Huangquan Sect. His cultivation base reached the Second-Order Emperor Venerable Realm as early as a hundred years ago. He is a famous powerhouse. Moreover, Yin Lesheng has also been promoted to the Emperor Venerable Realm. It would be better for my lord to avoid their sharpness.” Seeing Yang Kai’s eager posture, Qi Hefeng couldn’t help but be shocked. He really hadn’t encountered such a person who didn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. Clearly, he had just been promoted to the Emperor Venerable Realm, but he acted as if he was invincible in the world and didn’t even take Hua Feichen seriously. He quickly suggested, “My lord might as well withdraw from this place first and then make long-term plans!”
“Yin Lesheng has also been promoted to Emperor Venerable?” Yang Kai furrowed his brows. “When did this happen?”
Qi Hefeng said, “I don’t know exactly when. It’s just that he was already an Emperor Venerable after he returned from the Broken Star Sea.”
Yang Kai pondered and said, “It seems that this guy also has a great opportunity.”
Remember that when Yang Kai let Yin Lesheng go in the Broken Star Sea, this guy was only at the third level of the Dao Source Realm. He himself was able to advance to the Emperor Respect Realm because he witnessed the battle between two Great Emperors. Under the collision of the Emperor Rhyme, he had many insights. I don’t know what adventure Yin Lesheng had later.
However, there are many opportunities in the Broken Star Sea, and Yin Lesheng has good qualifications. It is not surprising that he can advance to the Emperor Respect Realm.
After thinking about it, Yang Kai bent down, reached out and pinched the chin of that bitter face, making his eyes meet his own. Golden light filled his right eye, and he quietly used his soul power to oppress the other party’s consciousness and asked, “Are you really from the Netherworld Sect?”
That bitter face was only at the third level of the Dao Source Realm. How could he withstand the suppression of Yang Kai’s soul? So he just hesitated for a while and then told the truth, “Yes.”
“This time your Netherworld Sect came to the Ancient Land Passage just to deal with me?”
“Yes!”
“How many people came? Besides Hua Feichen and Yin Lesheng, are there any other Emperor Respect Realm experts?”
“Twenty-five people came. Besides Elder Hua and Senior Brother Yin, there are no other Emperor Respect Realm experts.”
Yang Kai snorted coldly: “With just this little manpower, you want to deal with this young master? Did Yin Lesheng eat shit? What kind of backhand does he have?”
The bitter face said: “Fellow senior brothers will set up the Heavenly Net Sealing Absolute Great Array, and then Elder Hua and Senior Brother Yin will personally take action to kill you.”
“The Heavenly Net Sealing and Cutting Great Array!”
Qi Hefeng suddenly let out a cry of surprise.
Yang Kai turned his head to look at him and said, “What kind of formation is this?”
Qi Hefeng had a strange expression on his face and said, “It is an extremely powerful formation of the Netherworld Sect. Once it is set up, the area within the formation is like a ghostly domain. If one is trapped in it, their vitality will continuously drain away, and the place covered by the formation will be completely cut off from the heaven and earth, unable to enter or exit!”
After explaining, Qi Hefeng furrowed his brows and said, “To actually set up the Heavenly Net Sealing and Cutting Great Array… This is too much of a big deal.”
In Qi Hefeng’s opinion, Hua Feichen’s personal action had already given Yang Kai enough face. After all, one was at the Second-Order Emperor Senior Realm, and the other was at the First-Order Emperor Senior Realm. With Yin Lesheng assisting from the side, no matter how powerful Yang Kai was, there was absolutely no reason for him to escape. Sooner or later, he would have to be beheaded.
The two of them joining forces would be enough to capture Yang Kai. Why bother setting up the Heavenly Net Sealing and Cutting Great Array! One must know that the items used to set up this great array were all Netherworld Purgatory Banners refined by the Netherworld Sect disciples with their life essence blood. Once the great array was broken, all these secret treasures would be destroyed. Those disciples would also surely suffer a backlash and be devoured by thousands of ghosts, worse than death.
The protective great array covering the Netherworld Sect’s mountain gate was a huge Heavenly Net Sealing and Cutting Great Array, with three Emperor Treasure-level Netherworld Purgatory Banners as the array eyes. If foreign enemies invaded, once the great array was activated, there would be no return.
However, the Tianluo Fengjue Great Array arranged by more than twenty disciples of the Huangquan Sect definitely should not be underestimated in terms of power.
Is Yang Kai this powerful that the people of the Huangquan Sect would treat him so seriously? Qi Hefeng couldn’t figure it out no matter how he thought.
How could he know. It was precisely because Yin Lesheng knew that Yang Kai was proficient in spatial power that he would bring people to arrange this great array. Although Hua Feichen’s strength was indeed a bit higher than Yang Kai’s, if he wanted to kill him. I’m afraid it’s not that easy.
Since ancient times, warriors who are proficient in spatial power have been extremely difficult to kill. If you want to cut off their retreat, you can only find a way to block the space first and prevent them from using spatial power to escape.
“Isolate the heaven and earth… Humph!” Yang Kai couldn’t help but snorted coldly, and he understood in his heart what the Tianluo Fengjue Great Array was used for.
“My lord. The ancient land can’t be entered anymore. It’s better to retreat first. If you want to enter the ancient land to find something, our Qijia Fort can help. You just need to wait for news in Qijia Fort.” Qi Hefeng looked at Yang Kai eagerly.
He felt that with Yang Kai’s current strength, if he walked into a trap, he would surely die.
“What I’m looking for, your Qijia Fort can’t help.” Yang Kai shook his head.
He came to the ancient land not to search for treasures, but to find the trace of Xiaoxiao. How could Qijia Fort help with this kind of thing.
As he spoke, he flicked his hand, and the long-faced man immediately slumped down. There was no sign of injury on the surface, but his internal organs had been reduced to powder, and he was as dead as could be.
“Let’s go!” Yang Kai called out to Zhang Ruoxi and Old Ban. They already knew what they needed to know, and there was no need to inquire further. As he spoke, he circulated his Emperor Yuan to envelop the two of them, and with a flash, he disappeared like a ghost.
“My lord, my lord!” Qi Hefeng shouted twice in a hurry, but there was no sign of Yang Kai. After rushing out, he was immediately enveloped by the strange fog, unable to see his hand in front of his face, and his spiritual sense could not be released.
Qi Hefeng stood there for a while, then stomped his foot in chills and galloped towards the outside.
It was impossible to find Yang Kai in the passage of the ancient land. He had only been able to see Yang Kai because he had been waiting in that cave. Now that Yang Kai had left, he could only send the news back to Qi Family Fort as soon as possible and let the young fort master decide what to do next.
……
A hundred miles away from the place where Yang Kai and the others were originally located, in another cave.
A group of martial artists with gloomy expressions, a ghostly aura all over their bodies and a cold temperament gathered together. This cave was much larger than the one where Yang Kai and the others were hiding. There were actually more than twenty people gathered here, and it didn’t seem crowded at all.
And these more than twenty people, most of them are wearing the same clothes, and at a glance, they are from the same sect.
The leader is even a strong man at the second level of Emperor Zun. That strong man is wearing a luxurious robe and is about fifty years old, but his complexion is ruddy and his forehead is full.
This person is Hua Feichen, the elder of the Huangquan Sect.
And beside Hua Feichen, Yin Lesheng’s pair of eyes like poisonous snakes have been staring at the strange fog surging outside, as if trying to see into the depths of the strange fog, and there is a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, which makes people feel extremely uncomfortable.
Recalling the encounter with Yang Kai in the Broken Star Sea, he often feels uneasy in his sleep and diet.
Since he started practicing, he really hasn’t suffered such a big loss. There has always been only him crushing others with absolute strength, but he didn’t expect that one day there would be a martial artist of the same level who surpassed him in strength.
This makes him simply unbearable.
What makes him even more intolerable is that last time, in order to save his life, he also humbled himself and said some soft words. If it weren’t for the information in his hand that Yang Kai was interested in, I’m afraid he would have been killed at that time. In the end, he still relied on the Soul Contract to save his life.
Back then in the Starlight Passage, Yang Kai was not his opponent at all, but he didn’t expect that in less than ten years, Yang Kai had actually grown to such an extent.
If given him a few more years, wouldn’t he be able to ravage himself at will?
Since he has offended, then he must cut the grass and remove the roots. If Yang Kai is really allowed to grow up, his future days will probably be difficult.
So after he returned to the sect, he asked his master to send Elder Hua Feichen with more than twenty disciples to this ancient land passage to strangle Yang Kai here.
With Hua Feichen, the Heaven and Earth Sealing and Forbidding Great Array, and his own trump card, it is impossible for Yang Kai not to die this time.
Yin Lesheng really wants to see the scene where Yang Kai is in a mess and kneels on the ground begging for mercy. That scene must be very wonderful…
“Elder, it’s not good!” A cry of surprise suddenly interrupted Yin Lesheng’s reverie, making him extremely unhappy. He turned his head and saw a disciple of the Huangquan Sect standing beside Hua Feichen with an ugly face.
“What’s the matter?” Yin Lesheng asked with a frown.
Hua Feichen also opened his eyes and looked at him faintly.
The disciple trembled and said, “Senior Brother Yao… is dead.”
“Who killed him!” Yin Lesheng gritted his teeth and asked. Although the ancient land passage is full of dragons and snakes and not safe, the disciples of the Huangquan Sect are also a sign in the Eastern Region. Who would dare to slaughter them easily?
“It seems… it’s that person!” As the disciple spoke, he suddenly wiped a bead on his palm. Immediately afterwards, a virtual shadow emerged in mid-air, reflecting the scene where Yang Kai stretched out his hand and shattered the internal organs of that bitter-faced man.
I don’t know what kind of secret technique this is. It can actually transmit the scene that the bitter face saw before his death here, allowing Hua Feichen and the others to see it clearly.
“Yang Kai!” Yin Lesheng gritted his teeth and shouted in a low voice, looking at Yang Kai in the phantom, as enemies meet their eyes are red with hatred.
“It’s him, this bastard bullied this young lady. He really entered the ancient land passage. Hua Feichen, you must catch him for me. This young lady wants to torture him well! On the other side of the cave, a red-clothed girl suddenly jumped up and shouted also looking at Yang Kai’s figure with gritted teeth.
the woman who had made things difficult for Old Ban before. I don’t know how she got together with the people of the Huangquan Sect. The old Fu who had been protecting the girls also followed here but the other two guards at the third level of the Dao Source Realm were nowhere to be seen, and their lives and deaths were unknown.
The girl’s cultivation is only at the third level of the Dao Source Realm, but she orders Hua Feichen a strong man at the Emperor Venerable Realm, around and calls him by his name, without any respect at all.
In contrast, Hua Feichen is not angry at all, but there is a hint of helplessness between his brows.
Yin Lesheng turned his head to look at the red-clothed the girl and raised the corner of his mouth and said, “Miss Lin’er, do you mean… the person you want to teach a lesson is him?
“That’s right!” Lin’er’s eyes were ablaze with fire, and she gritted her silver teeth and said, “It’s him. I would recognize him even if he turned to ashes. You guys hurry up and catch him for me. I want him to kneel in front of me and beg for mercy.”
