Chapter 2715
byIn the guest-receiving hall of Lingxiao Palace, the host and guests took their seats.
Ji Ying’s face looked a bit ugly because Yang Kai had taken the first seat, putting him in the second seat.
This had never happened before. Wherever he went in the Northern Territory, no matter which sect he visited, he would be treated as a distinguished guest and the first seat was always reserved for him. It was the same in Li Long Palace a few days ago.
If it were an ordinary time, Ji Ying probably wouldn’t have cared about these things. After all, when a guest is in the host’s place, he should follow the host’s arrangements. No matter how noble his identity was he was still just an outsider. The first seat and the second seat were just seats and there was nothing worth arguing about.
But already having a preconceived impression of Lingxiao Palace and Yang Kai, he now increasingly feels that Yang Kai doesn’t take him seriously.
Yang Kai didn’t consider these things. Since he is the host, of course he should sit in the first place to entertain the guests.
His gaze turned around below and he smiled slightly： “It’s really a coincidence that Master Ji can come together with the two sect masters.”
Ji Ying said in a deep voice： “It’s not a coincidence. I came here thanks to the escort of Palace Master Li and Sect Master Mi all the way.”
Yang Kai wondered： “Master Ji is highly respected and Yaodan Valley has a reputation in the Northern Territory. Could there be someone with no eyesight who dares to trouble Master Ji？ The Northern Territory is said to be very peaceful.”
Li Jiao snorted coldly and said： “It was indeed very peaceful in the past, but recently… it’s not so good.”
There was something in the words and it was pointed at something. How could Yang Kai not hear it? It was nothing more than saying that the birth and rise of Lingxiao Palace made the Northern Territory not peaceful.
Not bothering to pay attention to him, he turned his head and looked at Li Xuan behind Ji Ying, and said with a smile： “Little brother, we meet again so soon.”
Li Xuan’s face turned pale and he exclaimed： “You… what do you want to do? I warn you not to mess around！”
Half was pretending and half was really scared. He suffered a big loss at Yang Kai’s hands last time and still has lingering fears.
Yang Kai sneered. “Little brother really knows how to crack jokes. Looks like last time this Palace Master didn’t entertain you well, making little brother hold a grudge. If you have time, little brother might as well stay as a guest for a while. This Palace Master will definitely make you feel at home！”
Li Xuan raged. “Who the hell wants to be a guest here.”
With his master here, his courage had also increased a great deal, and he no longer needed to be as servile as last time.
Zhu Qing and Hua Qingsi walked up carrying tea, and served everyone one by one.
Hua Qingsi was fine. Zhu Qing, however, viciously threw the teacup onto the table, splashing tea all over the table. Yang Kai flew into a rage and pounded the table, shouting. “What are you doing, what are you doing? Do you have any manners at all… I’m talking to you. Come back here！”
There was no sign of Zhu Qing anymore. After serving the tea, she immediately retreated.
Yang Kai shouted for a while before helplessly saying. “Master Ji, don’t be offended. This girl has a bit of a wild temper. This Palace Master will definitely teach her a good lesson.”
Ji Ying said indifferently. “It’s just a small matter. There’s no need to worry about it.”
Yang Kai smiled slightly. “Master Ji is magnanimous. But I wonder what brings Master Ji to my Lingxiao Palace this time？”
Mi Qi pounded the table and stood up, sneering. “Why does Palace Master Yang ask? Don’t you have a clear conscience about what you did a few days ago?”
Yang Kai looked at him with a sidelong glance and said, “I don’t know what this palace master has done to make Sect Master Mi so excited. This palace master should be meeting Sect Master Mi for the first time, and this palace master has no relationship with your Myriad Heavens Sect either.”
Mi Qi snorted and said, “This seat and Sect Master Li are here today just to seek justice for this nephew Li. Palace Master Yang, you should know that those who commit many injustices will surely bring about their own destruction. Please be self-respecting, otherwise, it will surely bring disaster to your High Heaven Palace.”
Li Jiao also nodded beside him and said, “What Sect Brother Mi said is right.”
Yang Kai narrowed his eyes and said, “So it seems that the two of you are here to make things difficult for my High Heaven Palace？ I don’t know where my High Heaven Palace has offended the two of you.”
Mi Qi said, “You haven’t offended this seat and Sect Brother Li, but the Medicine Pill Valley！ The Medicine Pill Valley is a holy land in the Northern Territory. Offending the Medicine Pill Valley is equivalent to offending the entire Northern Territory. As people of the Northern Territory, we naturally can’t stand by and do nothing！”
Yang Kai said in surprise, “When did I offend the Medicine Pill Valley？”
Ji Ying said with a sullen face, “My unworthy disciple’s injury is still there. Palace Master Yang still wants to tell lies with his eyes open？”
Yang Kai turned his head to look at him and then swept a glance at Li Xuan’s swollen cheek. As if he had just come back to his senses, he oh-ed and said, “So that’s how it is.”
Ji Ying looked at him expressionlessly and said, “Palace Master Yang, don’t tell me that my disciple was not injured by you！”
“That’s right, it was indeed me who hit him.” Yang Kai nodded and admitted.
Ji Ying flew into a rage, gritted his teeth and said, “Yang Palace Master is at least a Emperor Venerable Realm. Why do you bully the weak with your strength and humiliate my disciple？ Do you really not take my Medicine Pill Valley seriously！”
“Yang Kai, you’re presumptuous！”
“Master Ji, this matter must not end well. Otherwise, if it spreads, where will the face of Medicine Pill Valley be！”
Li Jiao and Mi Qi both said angrily, as if it wasn’t Li Xuan who was beaten but the two of them, eager to encourage Ji Ying to teach Yang Kai a lesson.
“What else do you have to say？” Ji Ying looked at Yang Kai with a sullen face.
Yang Kai raised his eyebrows and said, “When a child does something wrong, can’t he be taught a lesson？”
“Do something wrong!” My disciple has always been well-behaved and sensible. but I don’t know what he did wrong to make Yang Palace Master teach him such a lesson.”
Yang Kai looked at Li Xuan with a smile, thought for a while and said, “I want to know what he said to Master Ji.”
Ji Ying snorted coldly and ordered, “Xuan’er, tell in detail what happened to you that day! Don’t be afraid, your master will make the decision for you.
“This…” Li Xuan suddenly hesitated. After all, what he said in front of Ji Ying was all fabricated by himself. Now that Yang Kai is here, Li Xuan really doesn’t have the courage to confront him face to face.
But if he didn’t confront Yang Kai, it would seem that he was too guilty, and the matter of fabricating and slandering would also be exposed. With the temper of his master, he would surely not tolerate himself at that time. But if his master was willing to believe him, it didn’t matter what he said.
With this thought in mind, a hint of viciousness flashed in Li Xuan’s eyes, and he secretly made a decision in his heart.
“This is what happened…”
Although Li Xuan was not very old, he was also articulate. Under his elaboration, that day he was ordered by Ji Ying to come to Lingxiao Palace to buy medicine, but was blocked outside the mountain gate by Lingxiao Palace. He waited for several days and finally someone came to ask questions. After learning his purpose, they actually started to hit people. Not only did they beat him up, but also robbed the source crystals he used to buy spiritual medicines.
As he spoke, as if remembering the encounter of that day, Li Xuan’s face turned pale, his body trembled constantly, and he wiped away his tears from time to time, making the listener sad and the hearer shed tears. At the end, his speech became clearer and clearer, his voice became louder and louder, and his back straightened, as if he had really suffered those things.
Ji Ying’s face became uglier and uglier, while Mi Qi and Li Jiao were secretly delighted. They knew that the more miserable Li Xuan’s encounter was, the greater the trouble for this Lingxiao Palace and Yang Kai would be.
“Look at the good things you’ve done！”
When Li Xuan finished speaking, Mi Qi immediately jumped up and, pointing at Yang Kai, said angrily: “Bullying the weak with the status of Emperor Venerable Realm, and it’s okay to bully a Dao Source Realm, but actually robbing as well. It’s simply shaming all the martial artists in our Northern Territory.”
Yang Kai regarded him as nothing and instead looked at Li Xuan with a smile and said： “Are you sure there’s nothing to add？”
Li Xuan’s body trembled, and he quickly hid behind Ji Ying.
“Palace Master Yang, are you threatening my disciple？” Ji Ying looked at Yang Kai coldly.
Yang Kai shrugged his shoulders and said： “It’s not a threat, just asking a question.”
“So, you admit it？”
Yang Kai frowned and stared at Ji Ying, saying： “Master Ji believes what his disciple said？”
Ji Ying snorted and said: My disciple has been in my for ten years and grew up under my watch. I still know his character very well. He is by no means a person who makes things up out of nothing.”
Yang Kai spread his hands and said： “If you put it that way, it seems that no matter what I say, it’s useless.”
Ji Ying snorted and said： “Do you have a different version？”
“No, no… Just think that Master Ji’s vision for accepting disciples and judging people is really not very good.”
Ji Ying narrowed his eyes and said： “If you have anything to defend, I can listen, but if not… then this Lingxiao Palace has no need to exist, and you will also have to go back to Medicine Pill Valley with me to plead guilty！”
To decide the fate of a top sect with just a few words, only the personal disciple of the Wonderful Pill Great Emperor has such qualifications.
Yang Kai narrowed his eyes and said, “What crime do I have！”
Ji Ying said, “Not taking my master, the Wonderful Pill Great Emperor, seriously and looking down on all the alchemists in the world is the greatest crime！”
Yang Kai said sternly, “If all the disciples under the Wonderful Pill Great Emperor are as stubborn and decayed as you and as cunning and changeable as Li Xuan, then this Palace Master really doesn’t take him seriously. What is the Medicine Pill Valley? It’s just a shitty Holy Land of the Northern Territory！”
Ji Ying’s complexion changed drastically： “Presumptuous！”
Yang Kai looked at him disdainfully and said, “So what if I’m presumptuous? If you have the ability, come and bite me.”
“You…” Ji Ying pointed at Yang Kai, wishing he could really go up and bite him. But although he had the cultivation base of the Second-Order Emperor Senior, he was just an alchemist and had very little experience in fighting with others. How could he really put himself in danger.
His gaze swept to the side, and Mi Qi and Li Jiao understood tacitly. They simultaneously urged their Emperor Yuan and were about to rush forward.
Three terrifying auras of monster qi suddenly burst out, and three figures shot in from outside the hall and stood in front of Mi Tian and Li Jiao with a swish, swish, swish.
“Want to start a fight？ You try moving a finger！” Xi Lei’s fists crackled as he squeezed them, looking at the front with a sinister gaze.
Mi Tian and Li Jiao’s expressions changed in surprise, instantly freezing in place, their spirits highly tense.
Although they knew there were powerfulDemon Racein the Lingxiao Palace, and the Wenqing Sect was destroyed because of the interference of theDemon Race, they never expected there to be three Demon Kings！
With two against three, they had no chance of winning at all, not to mention there was also that woman named Qing’er in the Lingxiao Palace.
That woman punched Mi Qi flying with one punch, and her strength was probably even stronger than these three Demon Kings.
A dragon’s pool and a tiger’s den！
Where did so many powerful people come from in this Lingxiao Palace？ Such background seems not much worse than that of a Great Emperor Sect, just lacking a Great Emperor.
Ji Ying also felt a chill all over. How many years had it been since he had encountered such a dangerous situation? The surging demonic energy almost made it difficult for him to breathe. However, he was finally a disciple of the Great Emperor, and his state of mind and cultivation were not bad. Although his expression was solemn, there was no sign of panic.
