Chapter 358
byAfter one day and one night.
Yang Kai strode out from the inside.
The two Blood Servants and Qiu Yimeng and Luo Xiaoman had been standing outside waiting. Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian’s expressions were meticulous. It was Qiu Yimeng and Luo Xiaoman who had long been sitting aside bored.
Seeing Yang Kai come out with a calm expression, Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian couldn’t help but be slightly surprised.
During this one day and night, although they didn’t see Yang Kai, they could clearly feel the pain coming from the inside.
But they didn’t expect that now the young master had completely adjusted again, without showing any sign.
With a calm expression, exuding full confidence, both Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian’s eyes lit up when they saw it.
“You guys do as you please. I’m going down for a trip!” Yang Kai greeted everyone and walked straight to the entrance of the cave.
Qiu Yimeng immediately perked up and looked at him expectantly: “What’s down there?”
She had been here for quite some time and was rather curious about what was beneath the Dragon-Trapping Ravine. However, those people in the Lingxiao Pavilion had a deep taboo about the area below, and even the people from the Blood Battle Gang and the Wind and Rain Tower had admonished her not to venture deep into the Dragon-Trapping Ravine.
So until today, Qiu Yimeng had no intention of going down to take a look.
But now that she saw Yang Kai was about to go down, she naturally became curious.
“Hehe…” Yang Kai perfunctorily smiled and directly rushed down.
“This person…” Qiu Yimeng stomped her foot and didn’t go after him.
Yang Kai clearly didn’t want her to follow. If she followed rashly, it would only make him annoyed.
In the blink of an eye, Yang Kai disappeared and fled into the depths of the Dragon-Trapping Ravine.
“Miss Qiu, please forgive me. My young master’s temper seems to be a bit straightforward.” Tang Yuxian chuckled. She had only been in contact with Yang Kai for a few days, but she had keenly perceived that Yang Kai had many merits that his peers didn’t have them.
Precisely because of this, Tang Yuxian actually had a good impression of this young master. Immediately, she made an excuse for Yang Kai.
“It’s nothing.” Qiu Yimeng didn’t care at all.
Tu Feng looked at her thoughtfully and asked casually: “Is Miss Qiu an old acquaintance of the young master?”
“Hehe, I don’t dare to claim such a thing.” Qiu Yimeng smiled bitterly and slowly shook her head.
Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian couldn’t help but be slightly moved. Whether it was in terms of identity or personal qualifications, Qiu Yimeng was ranked among the younger generation in Zhongdu. The young masters of the eight great families all regarded it as an honor to make friends with her. But now she actually lowered her stance like this, not even having the confidence to admit that she was an old acquaintance of Yang Kai. What was the situation?
The bitterness and unwillingness in that smile were absolutely true and not fake. Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian could naturally see it clearly.
“You can also sense his coldness towards me.” Qiu Yimeng didn’t have any embarrassed expression. Instead, she was quite frank and said faintly, “He and I can probably only be considered acquaintances… that’s all!”
The two blood servants were immediately extremely curious. Tu Feng said, “If it’s convenient, can Miss Qiu talk about these things? If it’s not convenient, just pretend I didn’t ask.”
Qiu Yimeng’s long eyelashes moved, and her expression was calm. It was a long time before she said, There’s nothing inconvenient. I led the team to Lingxiao Pavilion last time to find out the specific information of the Evil Lord and got to know him. At that time, we were still enemies. The things that happened that day, you probably also know seven or eight out of ten.”
Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian nodded together. The head of Lingxiao Pavilion and four elders fought against more than a dozen Shenyou Realm masters from the Qiu Family, the Bai Family, and Ziwei Valley. Not only did they escape safely, but also injured several people. It was precisely because of that battle that the world knew that there was actually a master above the Shenyou Realm in Lingxiao Pavilion.
“However, the places that the world doesn’t know about… are very magical.”
“Magical?” The two blood attendants couldn’t help but be surprised. Since Qiu Yimeng could evaluate it like this, it seemed that there were still some unknown secrets on that day.
“Yes, magical. Lingxiao Pavilion is a magical sect, and your young master is also a magical person!” Qiu Yimeng chuckled.
Before that, she had never known that there was a place in this world that could connect the north and the south which were thousands of miles apart.
Nor had she ever known that a man whose realm was much lower than her own would leave her helpless and repeatedly at a disadvantage.
Even more, she had never known that there was actually someone who could capture the heart of the enchanting queen in just one month.
Qiu Yimeng considered herself to be a top-notch person. If she were a man, she would definitely become the next head of the Qiu Family! Unfortunately, she was born a woman, which was somewhat regrettable.
But even she didn’t dare to compare herself with Yang Kai.
The potential of this man was extremely terrifying. If he truly grew up, the achievements he could obtain would far exceed the current top level!
Perhaps, he could create a generation of legends!
“How magical is it?” Tang Yuxian’s beautiful eyes shone with yicai, asking expectantly.
“How magical… Hee hee, I’m not convenient to say. If you want to know, go and ask that Young Master Yang yourself. If I talk too much, he might really hold a grudge against me. How could I do such a thankless thing.”
“Uh…” The two blood servants were suddenly stunned. Qiu Yimeng had just raised their interest, but didn’t give them a satisfactory answer. This kind of feeling of being neither up nor down was really uncomfortable, and their hearts felt like being scratched by a cat.
If someone else said this, the two blood servants would have made her confess clearly even if they used the torture of the Yang family, but when Qiu Yimeng said this, they had no choice.
With a serious expression, Qiu Yimeng said, “Although I’m not convenient to say too much, I can tell you that absolutely… absolutely… absolutely don’t look down on your little young master!”
Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian were suddenly dumbfounded and shocked in their hearts.
Qiu Yimeng used three absolutes in a row, and her tone was also quite solemn.
What does this mean? This means that this eldest miss of the Qiu family is extremely and quite definitely optimistic about Yang Kai! And is extremely optimistic.
“Those who look down on him will pay a heavy price!” Qiu Yimeng’s pretty face turned, and she laughed again.
Tu Feng’s face twitched, and he suddenly had a feeling of unreality.
Tang Yuxian’s fine eyebrows were tightly furrowed. She really couldn’t figure out why Qiu Yimeng was so certain and unreserved in her words.
However, although the two were suspicious, they also knew that Qiu Yimeng definitely wouldn’t speak without basis.
Immediately, their expressions became solemn, and they said, “We remember.”
“En.” Qiu Yimeng nodded slightly and seemingly casually asked, “Will your Blood Servants participate in this succession battle of the Yang Family?”
Tu Feng smiled bitterly. “We don’t know about this either. The clan hasn’t clearly mentioned this yet.”
“If you participate, if I were you, then I would definitely follow him!” Qiu Yimeng said with a serious expression.
Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian neither affirmed nor denied it, but only said lightly, “Thank you, Miss Qiu, for your guidance. When that day really comes, we will consider it carefully.”
Qiu Yimeng didn’t say anything more. She knew that even if she talked the talk, she couldn’t possibly influence the state of mind of these two Divine Movement Realm experts. When that time really came, who they would choose to follow would only depend on their own judgment, and no one else could interfere.
Saying so much now wouldn’t have much of an effect. At most, it would only make them look forward to Yang Kai’s performance even more.
……
At the bottom of the Dragon Trapping Ravine, Yang Kai stopped at the place where he had left before, looking around. Sure enough, there was no trace of the Earth Demon.
This old devil must have already left here long ago. The originally soaring evil and malevolent aura was now completely gone, having been devoured clean by him.
The Earth Demon had said that he would come looking for him after dealing with matters here, but later events had exceeded the expectations of both of them.
The Qiu Family had brought a large force to attack, and Su Yan and the others had escaped tens of thousands of miles away through the Void Tunnel, while Yang Kai had fled to the Azure Cloud Evil Land.
This was something that neither he nor the Earth Demon had anticipated.
Perhaps even if the Earth Demon had the intention to look for him, he wouldn’t have a clear direction.
If this was the reason why the Earth Demon hadn’t contacted him until now, it would be quite understandable.
Whether he truly had ulterior motives or not, Yang Kai wasn’t too sure.
Closing his eyes, Yang Kai slowly released his Spiritual Awareness to investigate the surroundings. Moments later, his expression shook, and he quickly turned his head to look at the mountain wall beside him.
There was nothing special there, just ordinary, but under the induction of Yang Kai’s Spiritual Awareness, he keenly detects something unusual.
Here, there was a residue of some evil Qi!
Concentrating his gaze there, he reached out and brushed his hand over it.
A circle of ripples spread out, and a line of words appeared on the otherwise ordinary mountain wall. The handwriting didn’t look old and should have been made not long ago.
Taking a glance, Yang Kai couldn’t help but smile.
It seemed that the Earth Demon didn’t want to break free from his control and had even used a special method to leave a message here.
“This old servant has completed his task and gone out to search for the Young Master. If I can’t find him after searching everywhere, I will return here in three months! Leave a message when you see this!”
This was clearly written by the Earth Demon for himself. The Earth Demon was going to spend three months going out to pry information about Yang Kai, and would return here after three months.
Because he knew that no matter what, as long as Yang Kai was still alive, he would definitely come here to look for him.
Leaving such words was enough to prove the loyalty of the Earth Demon.
With a happy expression on his face, Yang Kai pointed his fingers like a sword and engraved a line of words below.
Central Capital, Yang Family!
There was no need to say anything more. As long as the Earth Demon returned here, he would definitely be able to understand everything.
With a big laugh, Yang Kai’s body was like a bolt of lightning, rising rapidly.
Returning to the cave residence, Tu Feng and Tang Yuxian cast a concerned look over.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Yang Kai always felt that their expressions when looking at him now were a little different from before, much more solemn and serious.
“Everything is taken care of?” Qiu Yimeng asked with a meaningful smile.
“Yes.”
“What are your plans next?”
Yang Kai grinned, full of heroic spirit and confidence: “Return to the Central Capital and participate in the battle for the throne!”
Qiu Yimeng showed an expression of ‘as expected’ and said happily: “Coincidentally, I’m also going back. If you don’t mind, shall we go together?”
Yang Kai glanced at her and said indifferently: “Whatever!”
Qiu Yimeng pursed her lips and smiled: “Then I’ll take advantage of you.”
Yang Kai was suspicious and puzzled: “Take advantage of what?”
“You’ll know tomorrow.” Qiu Yimeng chuckled lightly and didn’t answer, but just said, “Wait for me for half a day. I need to deal with some matters here. We’ll set off tomorrow morning.”
“Alright!” Yang Kai nodded. The matters Qiu Yimeng needed to deal with were also related to the Lingxiao Pavilion. Naturally, this half a day could be delayed.
