Chapter 2654
byThousand Leaves Sect. The last time Yang Kai came here, this place was still a lofty mountain with beautiful scenery and rich spiritual energy. But when he came here again today, everything he saw was in ruins and desolate.
In the mountains and fields, there were all broken walls and ruins. The pavilions and towers that had originally stood in it had basically collapsed. Traces of the aftermath of the great battle could be seen everywhere. The blood on the ground had long since dried up, and birds flew across the sky, leaving the earth.
Yang Kai slowly flew over in the air, his face as sullen as water.
Divine sense swept through, and there was not a single living person in the huge Thousand Leaves Sect now. Only the figures of a few beasts and birds were occasionally found in the mountains, and there seemed to be a lingering stench in the air.
The Thousand Leaves Sect was really wiped out.
Although the Thousand Leaves Sect was not a major sect, it was after all a sect that had been passed down for tens of thousands of years. In its heyday, it was a hegemon in the Southern Region, with countless disciples and strong people like clouds. But today, there is no longer the Thousand Leaves Sect in this world.
A wave of unknown anger was churning in his chest, making Yang Kai extremely uncomfortable. Although it was only an intuition, Yang Kai always felt that this matter had something to do with himself.
But no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn’t figure out what kind of connection he had with the destruction of the Thousand Leaves Sect.
Perhaps, only by finding the Flowing Shadow Sword Sect and asking clearly can he understand the reason for all this.
Yang Kai suddenly raised his head and looked towards the location of the main hall of the Thousand Leaves Sect. There were several living people’s auras emerging over there.
His eyes sank, and his figure flickered and rushed over there.
Moments later, he landed in front of the main hall. There was originally a statue standing in front of this main hall, which was the statue of the founding master of the Thousand Leaves Sect for future generations to worship. But now this statue had long collapsed. It seemed that someone had cut it down with a single sword. The incision was neat and tidy, highlighting the extraordinary strength of the person who made the move. Yang Kai reached out and touched the broken opening, and felt a nimble windsmell from it.
In the main hall, a smell of meat wafted out. There were also faint voices of several people coming from inside.
Yang Kai pushed the door open and a gust of cold wind blew in.
Inside the hall, several people had kindled a fire and were cooking an unknown broth. They were sitting on the ground, drinking wine in big bowls and eating meat in big chunks, looking like they were having a good time.
Hearing the movement, several people turned around simultaneously. A slightly older man stood up and glared at Yang Kai, saying, “Who are you!”
Yang Kai looked at them a few times and found that they were not disciples of Thousand Leaves Sect, and couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.
Come to think of it, if the surviving disciples of Thousand Leaves Sect were afraid, they would have long since changed their names and fled in all directions. How could they still be doing these things in the main hall of their own sect?
The strongest of these few people was only at the First-Order Dao Source Realm, and the remaining few were only at the Saint King Realm. They seemed to be just some scattered martial artists with no background.
Thousand Leaves Sect was destroyed, and such a large mountain gate was deserted. Naturally, it was a very good place for them to stay.
Yang Kai had no interest in entangling with them and just said, “Are there no living people in Thousand Leaves Sect anymore?”
Youdaoplaceholder0 their eyesight was not good enough, when speaking, he slightly released some authority.
Several people immediately became as if facing a great enemy. The man who had originally put on a show and put on some airs even changed his complexion. In an instant, his body shrank by half, and he looked at Yang Kai tremblingly and said, “Haven’t seen any.”
As expected, Yang Kai nodded, looked around, and didn’t say anything more.
Cold sweat dripped down that man’s forehead. He stood there, not daring to move. It was a long time before Yang Kai turned around and walked out.
It was only at this moment that the few martial artists in the hall felt as if they had been pardoned. They all went limp. For people like them, if a powerful person like Yang Kai wanted to, he could take their lives with a flick of his hand. Moreover, these so-called powerful people were originally moody, and no one knew when they would kill someone.
So when going out for training and walking, when seeing a powerful person stronger than oneself, it is best to avoid them if possible and never deal with them.
After this narrow escape from death, the few people hurriedly looked at each other. They didn’t care about the almost cooked broth anymore and fled out of the main hall one after another, running towards the distance. Their speed was so fast that they only hated that their parents had given birth to them with two fewer legs.
In the unnamed valley, Yang Kai looked around for a while. After a moment, his eyes shone brightly as he stood in a certain place.
Yang Kai was very familiar with this valley. The last time he came to Thousand Leaves Sect, he had come here because this was the forbidden area of Thousand Leaves Sect. Throughout the ages, except for the sect master of Thousand Leaves Sect, no one else could enter here.
On the surface, this was just an ordinary valley, but in fact, there was a huge illusion array covering it, Hide the spatial array that led to the independent small world of Thousand Leaves Sect.
Emperor Heaven Valley!
Yang Kai finally recalled the name of the independent small world of Thousand Leaves Sect. It was precisely within that Emperor Heaven Valley that Yang Kai encountered a powerful corpse puppet, and Liu Yan also obtained her puppet body.
There should have been a great battle within this valley on that day, because the surroundings were filled with the traces left by the battle. Everywhere, there were dried blood and white bones. It seemed that when Thousand Leaves Sect was destroyed on that day, quite a number of people died here.
In the center of the valley, at the location of the spatial array, Yang Kai carefully inspected the damaged array. After a short while, his eyes lit up.
He could tell that this spatial array had been directly destroyed by someone with brute force and the person who made the move was in a hurry, as if there was some urgent matter at that time.
Yang Kai couldn’t help but guess, was the person who destroyed this array Thousand Leaves Sect’s Sect Master Ye Hen?
If it was him, then this news wouldn’t be too bad because on the other side of the spatial array in Emperor Heaven Valley there was a high possibility that there were still disciples of Thousand Leaves Sect alive.
If he were Ye Hen, knowing that the sect was about to be in danger, he would definitely transfer his disciples and those close to him into Emperor Heaven Valley, and then destroy the spatial array to protect their lives.
Emperor Heaven Valley was an independent small world. Although it wasn’t very big, as long as the spatial array was destroyed, it would be very difficult for anyone in this world to enter again.
The hastily damaged array traces also illustrated this point.
Thoughts raced through his mind like a flash of lightning. Yang Kai stood up and said, “Demon King, Protector.”
He wanted to reopen this spatial array and enter that Di Tian Valley to take a look. Everything would become clear then.
Ying Fei nodded, and with a leap, he disappeared in an instant. It was not known where he had hidden.
Yang Kai swept his large sleeve, and a gust of wind blew, blowing away the clutter on the damaged spatial array. He reached out and groped the array in front of him.
This spatial array of the Thousand Leaves Sect was precisely repaired by Yang Kai last time. Although it was damaged again this time, it was naturally not difficult for Yang Kai to repair it again. It could even be said that he was familiar with it.
The power of the Spatial Law surged up, and the vibrations and hums of space were transmitted out. The place where Yang Kai was located soon became illusory, as if the space had collapsed.
In the dark, there seemed to be a mysterious force resonating with Yang Kai. The broken other shore was reconnected with this force as the source.
Whoosh…
A dark cave suddenly opened, and the inside of the cave was a chaotic void giving people a sense of devouring all things and making people feel uneasy.
Void Tunnel!
Yang Kai urges his strength to maintain the stability of the Void Tunnel and stood up to call, “Demon King!”
Ying Fei reappeared beside him and looked at the Void Tunnel with a solemn gaze.
Even someone as powerful as him didn’t dare to underestimate this strange existence. Because once trapped in it, there was a high possibility of getting lost forever in the void crack and never finding a way out.
However, Yang Kai casually waved his hand, and with the Emperor Yuan surrounding him, he directly rushed into the passage.
Soon, the figures of the two disappeared, and the formed void passage also vanished.
In Di Tian Valley, above the spatial array, Yang Kai and Ying Fei simultaneously appeared.
It was empty all around without a single person in sight, but Yang Kai’s sharp eyes searched the ground, and soon his eyes lit up.
He saw some blood on the ground, and there were also quite a number of footprints.
Ying Fei sniffed and said, “There are many people here.”
As a Demon King, his sense of smell was naturally excellent.
Yang Kai nodded, his gaze locks on one direction, and said, “Over there.”
He remembered that there was a valley over there, and there were also many caves. The Corpse Puppets he had encountered before were also met there. If there were any disciples of Thousand Leaves Sect who survived and fled here, they should have taken refuge in that valley.
The two flew towards the valley one after the other.
This Di Tian Valley wasn’t very big. It just formed a small world of its own, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was not bad, so it became the foundation of Thousand Leaves Sect.
However, in just the time it took to burn a stick of incense, the two had already arrived above the valley. Yang Kai didn’t hide his figure. Instead, he deliberately released hissmell and landed.
Immediately, a rustling sound rang out around the valley. Immediately after that, figures moved around, and one martial artist after another with uneven strengths emerged from the forest all looking at Yang Kai with pale faces.
They had been hiding here for over a year, and no outsiders had come here at all. They also felt that this place was the safest place under the sky because the array outside had been destroyed, and no one could enter this place at all.
But today, two outsiders actually barged in here.
This made the surviving disciples of Qianye Sect feels frightened and uneasy not knowing what kind of fate awaited them. The scene of the destruction of the sect a year ago was still vivid in their minds. The tragic emotion poured with blood and tears that day had been fermenting in their hearts. Could it be that even they, who were still struggling to survive, were going to reach the end of the road?
Two figures flashed out from the largest cave. One figure was tall and straight, and the other figure had a graceful figure.
“Senior Sister Ye, Senior Brother Du!”
Many disciples of Qianye Sect saluted one after another.
Ye Jinghan and Du Xian came hand in hand. Different from the panic of the other disciples, there was more delight in their eyes.
Because when Ye Hen sent them into Ditian Valley that day, he told them that if one day someone could reopen Ditian Valley, that person must be Yang Kai!
So as soon as they noticed that there were outsiders breaking into Ditian Valley, the first thought of the two was that Yang Kai had come.
Now, taking a closer look, it was indeed the case! That familiar figure came into view, which was simply the best news in the past year.
“Young Master Yang…” As soon as Ye Jinghan spoke, tears began to fall.
The last time she saw Yang Kai come back, Thousand Leaves Sect was in high spirits, having regained the legacy of their ancestors and retrieved the secret techniques that had been lost for many years. But now, just a few years later, everything had changed. Remembering her father whose life and death were unknown, Ye Jinghan couldn’t help but be touched by the scene and couldn’t control her emotions.
