Chapter 2732
byFacing this thunderous blow, Bian Yuqing did not dodge or evade, but directly welcomed it. At the same time, under the control of her mind, the countless bracelet shadows all smashed towards the middle-aged man.
One after another, the bracelet shadows smashed down, but the middle-aged man was unharmed. Instead, those bracelet shadows shattered. After all, these were just illusions and had no real lethality.
The distance between the two suddenly narrowed, and it seemed that they were about to engage in a head-on confrontation.
The middle-aged man’s expression lit up with joy, and the long sword stabbed forward.
With a chi sound, Bian Yuqing’s body trembled, and the long sword directly penetrated her chest.
Enduring the excruciating pain, Bian Yuqing’s expression was ferocious as she shouted explosively, “Die！”
As soon as the words fell, a bracelet smashed onto the middle-aged man’s head. With a crash, it was as if a watermelon had been split open, with red and white splattering in the void.
The headless corpse swayed twice and suddenly fell from mid-air.
And Bian Yuqing’s figure also trembled. She covered the stabbed area on her chest with her hand, staggered a few steps, and with a mouthful, bright red blood sprayed out.
The gentle breeze blew, and Yang Kai suddenly appeared beside her, supporting her with one hand and frowning as he said, “You could have worn him down to death. Why be so intense?”
Just now, Bian Yuqing was definitely at an advantage. Moreover, with himself watching from the side, as long as she spent a little more time, she could kill the opponent with minimal cost or even without a scratch. But to Yang Kai’s surprise, she actually chose a lose-lose.
Although the middle-aged man was killed, she was also stabbed with a sword in her chest. This injury was no small matter. With the slightest carelessness, she would have died first.
Bian Yuqing wiped the corner of her mouth and smiled self-deprecatingly, “It’s not only you men who have courage and uprightness！”
Yang Kai remained silent.
Bian Yuqing was estimated to have felt guilty towards Kou Wu so she would rather fight with injury to kill the opponent as soon as possible. This was indeed a kind of courage and uprightness.
“Do you feel better now？” Yang Kai asked.
Bian Yuqing shook her head. There was no sense of pleasure after taking revenge at all. Instead, her expression was extremely desolate.
The Blue Feather Sect was gone. She had always depended on Kou Wu for survival. Now that even Kou Wu was dead, leaving only her all alone, she suddenly felt a sense of confusion about the future.
“First, it’s important to treat your injuries.” Yang Kai looked at the long sword that had pierced through her chest and slightly furrowed his brows.
If she hadn’t shifted her body at a critical moment, this sword would really have cost her her life. It wasn’t that Yang Kai couldn’t take action to save her, but Yang Kai knew that this sword couldn’t kill her, so he stood by and did nothing.
If this injury isn’t dealt with in a timely manner, there might be hidden dangers.
Bian Yuqing shook her head again and said, “First, let’s collect Kou Wu’s bones. There are many wild beasts outside.”
Yang Kai sighed and said, “Where？”
“Over there！” Bian Yuqing pointed in a direction.
Yang Kai reached out and put his arm around her. As his figure flickered and was about to leave, Bian Yuqing suddenly said, “Their rings…”
Yang Kai stretched out his hand and summoned. Suddenly, several streams of light flew out from below. Three spatial rings along with the secret treasures of the other two people were all retrieved.
Although Yang Kai didn’t care about the wealth of these Dao Source Realm martial artists, for Bian Yuqing, it was a fortune and naturally couldn’t be easily let go.
He casually threw them to Bian Yuqing and then set off.
It didn’t take long to arrive at the place. On the ground, a corpse was lying horizontally, facing upwards. Who else could it be but Kou Wu？ However, it was indeed as the middle-aged man had said before. Kou Wu left very quickly. The fatal sword wound on his chest should not have caused him any pain.
Bian Yuqing’s eyes were a little red, she sniffled the sour tears, broke away from Yang Kai’s embrace, and flew down.
Landing on the ground, she was silent for a moment, and then said Youyou: “Following me, he didn’t become rich and powerful. In the next life, find a good place.”
The tears finally couldn’t help but slide down her cheeks. She bent down and carefully collected Kou Wu’s corpse and put it into her own Space Ring for placement.
Yang Kai watched silently and didn’t say much.
It wasn’t until Bian Yuqing finished packing up and flew up that he took her and rushed towards a nearby mountain peak.
His Spiritual Mind swept across and found a cave. After entering it, Yang Kai took out a few Spirit Pills and said, “Open your mouth！”
Bian Yuqing was quite obedient and still opened her mouth. Yang Kai flicked his fingers and flicked the few Spirit Pills into Bian Yuqing’s mouth.
Before she could react, Yang Kai suddenly reached out and grabbed the hilt of the long sword inserted in her chest and pulled it out with lightning speed.
Bian Yuqing’s body stiffened, and the next moment, she let out a heart-rending scream.
Yang Kai had already pointed his fingers like a sword and tapped several times on her body to stop the bleeding. Standing up, he said, “Refine the medicinal effects yourself. There’s no serious problem.”
He turned around and walked out of the cave.
Those healing elixirs were all refined by himself. One of them was even an Emperor-level elixir. Bian Yuqing’s injury was not serious in the first place. With her cultivation at the Third-Order Dao Source Realm and the assistance of his elixirs, I’m afraid she would recover soon.
Half a day later, Yang Kai, who was standing with his hands behind his back at the entrance of the cave, heard a burst of footsteps. Looking back, he saw that Bian Yuqing had come out wearing a clean set of clothes.
Their eyes met. Bian Yuqing’s gaze was slightly complicated, and she said softly, “Thank you.”
The brat who used to be looked down upon by herself had actually grown to a level that needed to be looked up to in one fell swoop. This change made Bian Yuqing a little at a loss, and naturally, she didn’t have the casualness she used to have Instead, her expression became a little reserved.
“It’s just a small matter.” Yang Kai shook his head and said again, “Maybe I’m also a little responsible for you guys getting into this situation.”
Bian Yuqing didn’t understand and said, “What does it have to do with you？”
Yang Kai looked at her with burning eyes： “Wu Mengchuan was killed by me.”
“What？” Bian Yuqing’s whole body shook, almost unable to believe her ears. However, she also understood that with Yang Kai’s current status, position, and strength, there was no need to lie to her about this.”
Since he said so, then Wu Mengchuan really died at his hands.
The decline of the Blue Feather Sect had a great deal to do with Wu Mengchuan’s disappearance. Without a Sect Master, and with the original several Protectors killed by Wu Mengchuan until only Bian Yuqing was left, she naturally couldn’t hold up alone. It wasn’t long before the Blue Feather Sect disbanded and the disciples went their separate ways.
Others didn’t know why Wu Mengchuan disappeared, but Bian Yuqing knew that something happened to him after he went to the Broken Star Sea. After all, the Star Seal to go to the Broken Star Sea was obtained by her and Kou Wu from the Four Seasons Land.
But… Wu Mengchuan actually died at Yang Kai’s hands. He was the descendant of the Devouring Heaven Great Emperor! As far as Bian Yuqing knew, Wu Mengchuan still had an Emperor Treasure handed down from the Devouring Heaven Great Emperor in his hand.
When Yang Kai entered the Broken Star Sea, he must have also been at the Dao Source Jing . He actually had the ability to kill Wu Mengchuan.
“It seems you don’t want to take revenge for him.” Yang Kai observed her expression and smiled slightly.
After he said that he was the one who killed Wu Mengchuan, although Bian Yuqing was shocked, there was no other change in her emotions.
“Why should I take revenge for him?” Bian Yuqing sneered. “If it wasn’t for the fact that he needed someone to manage the Blue Feather Sect for him, I would have been killed long ago after he escaped back then. I have no objections to you killing him.”
“That’s the best.” Yang Kai nodded slightly and suddenly said, “Oh, by the way, when those three people were chasing you, they mentioned some kind of Order Talisman. What is that thing？”
Bian Yuqing was silent for a moment, but still took out a cyan jade pendant the size of a palm from her Space Ring and handed it to Yang Kai, saying, “This is it.”
Yang Kai took it and had a look. He found that this jade pendant was carved from cyan jade and there was nothing special about it.
Cyan jade is a kind of jade mineral and is not very precious. It is produced in many places. Maybe it will be used when refining some low-level secret treasures. Why can such a token cause the warriors of the Dao Source Realm to fight and pursue and snatch it？
Turning it over to look at the back, there were actually several numbers engraved on it： 3912！
“What’s the use？” Yang Kai looked at Bian Yuqing suspiciously.
“This is the token of Linghu Palace. With it, one can go to the secret place of Linghu Palace to cultivate.” Bian Yuqing explained, “You haven’t returned here for many years, so you should not know how lively Linghu Palace is now. There are countless people queuing up every year for the three grades of cultivation secret places of heaven, earth, and human. I also spent all my assets to exchange this token from Linghu Palace, but I have to wait until two months later to be able to go in and cultivate.”
Yang Kai’s face darkened and he was shocked and said, “Two months later？ So many people queuing up？”
Bian Yuqing said, “Then do you know how long I have had this token？”
“How long？”
“Half a year.” Bian Yuqing said, “I got this token half a year ago, but I have to wait for a full eight months to be my turn. There are countless others who have to wait for one or two years.”
“Damn it！” Yang Kai clicked his tongue in wonder. “Is the Spirit Lake Palace so popular？”
Bian Yuqing smiled bitterly and said, “The Spirit Lake Palace is rich in heaven and earth spiritual energy. Even the lowest-level human-rank cultivation secret place is not comparable to the places occupied by ordinary small sects. People like us who want to make a breakthrough will naturally flock to the Spirit Lake Palace. However, if there is no way, we can only wait in line.
Yang Kai said, “Is it because of this that the three of them want to rob your talisman？”
Bian Yuqing said, “Of course. Don’t underestimate the value of this talisman. After the Spirit Lake Palace issues the talisman, it only recognizes the talisman and not the person. In other words, no matter who holds this talisman, they can go to the secret place of the Spirit Lake Palace to cultivate two months later. I spent all my source crystals to exchange for this talisman at that time. But if I sell this talisman in the black market now, I can definitely earn back twice as much. Even the auction often has talismans with high rankings.”
“Because of the time？” Yang Kai raised his eyebrows.
“Yes, the earlier the time, the more valuable the talisman. The black market in Fenglin City is crazy about speculating on this. I don’t know how many people want to find a talisman there.”
Yang Kai nodded. Leaving aside the value of the talisman itself, the fact that it can allow people to enter the secret place to cultivate two months later is enough to make many people scratch their heads. Bian Yuqing should have accidentally exposed it, which led to the three people from Duanyue Sect chasing and killing her.
He hasn’t been back here for many years, and he didn’t expect the changes here to be so great.
“What level of secret room can this token get you into for cultivation？” Yang Kai thought for a moment and then asked.
“The white jade token allows entry to the Human Rank, the cyan jade token allows entry to the Earth Rank, and as for the most top-tier red jade token, it naturally allows entry to the Heaven Rank！” Bian Yuqing explained. “The Heaven Rank… is not something someone like me can enter.”
That place is coveted by many Emperor Senior Realm cultivators. With Bian Yuqing’s assets, she naturally has no way to compete.
