Chapter 496

The huge Lingxiao Pavilion, although only a second-class sect, also has several thousand people. But after the last sect disaster, there are only these more than a hundred disciples who are loyal to the sect.”

Although there are still quite a few people in Lingxiao Pavilion now, the degree of loyalty and affection of those people to the sect is obviously not as good as that of the disciples here.”

These people are the foundation for the future rejuvenation of Lingxiao Pavilion and must not suffer any more damage！”

The news that a battle might occur was quickly passed on. Although many disciples of Lingxiao Pavilion were a little surprised, none of them showed a look of panic. Instead, people like Su Mu even showed a bit of eagerness to try.”

They have spent more than a year avoiding the wind and waves and have had enough of the days of hiding. Now with Yang Kai’s protection, they naturally don’t fear anything anymore. Instead, they have a feeling of being fearless due to ignorance because they don’t know what kind of enemy they are going to face.”

Yang Kai’s brows furrowed. That Yang Zhao would send someone to intercept was completely beyond his expectations.”

Since the other side dares to do this, they must be sure of it. At least they are confident in stalling Ying Jiu！ This means that among the other side’s troops, there are top-notch Divine Movement Realm powerhouses.

However, with the other side mobilizing so many people on such a large scale, they will surely not be able to hide it from the spies laid out by Qiu Yimeng！ Perhaps, the troops in his own residence are also hurrying over here.

Thinking of this, Yang Kai immediately felt much more at ease.

Moreover, this is not a dead end either！ I’m afraid they have miscalculated Ying Jiu’s true strength. He has reached the ninth level of the Divine Movement Realm, and the combat power he can unleash is much stronger than before.

They also don’t know his true strength, and there is also Su Yan as a variable！

If the troops dispatched by Yang Zhao are calculated according to the previous situation, then this time might not be a chance either！

But soon, Yang Kai discovered that he had underestimated Yang Zhao’s fear of him.

Suddenly, a dense crowd of figures appeared in front. Yang Kai’s spiritual consciousness swept around the crowd and couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh.

The other side has dispatched at least seven forces！ Among them, Yang Kai recognized four. The Qiu Family and the Kang Family in the Central Capital, and the Xiang Family and the Nan Family among the first-class forces. They can be described as having a strong army and are determined to capture him.

At first glance, seeing so many people, the people of Lingxiao Pavilion couldn’t help but be shocked. They completely didn’t expect the other side’s actions to be so huge.

Those several uncles were even more horrified in complexion, instantly realizing how important Yang Kai was in the eyes of the enemy. In order to capture him, they actually didn’t hesitate to send so many people and so many experts.

In the wild, the two groups of people collided together, separated by a distance of about a hundred zhang, looking at each other from afar.

Two pairs of venomous gazes swept over. Following these two gazes, Yang Kai sneered a few times at Chu and Nan Sheng.

Qiu Ziruo’s expression was complicated, staring blankly at Yang Kai who had no fear, and didn’t know what was in his heart. Kang Zhan, on the other hand, had a calm face.

On the contrary, many of the others were pointing fingers at Su Yan who was standing beside Yang Kai.

Such a person with a quiet temperament, like a fairy pearl and jade dew, was naturally very eye-catching. Looking at her, whether male or female, old or young, couldn’t help but have a sense of inferiority. Even the two young masters in the middle capital were the same.

They were not without seeing beautiful women. With their status and position, they could have as many beautiful women as they wanted.

But Su Yan’s temperament made them feel that even they were not worthy of climbing high.

On the contrary, when Yang Kai stood with her, there was a feeling of a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman.

With this thought rising, Qiu Ziruo and Kang Zhan couldn’t help but have a dark face. They wouldn’t think that they were much worse than Yang Kai.

Coughing lightly, Kang Zhan cupped his fists and shouted loudly over there： “Ninth Young Master. Long time no see！”

“Brother Kang！” Yang Kai nodded slightly, his expression calm. “Isn’t my second brother here？”

“The second young master is busy with important matters. This time, it’s me and Brother Qiu who are here to receive the ninth young master. I hope the ninth young master will forgive us！”

Yang Kai sneered and took a step forward, proudly saying, “My second brother didn’t come out in person and sent you two here to be scapegoats？”

Kang Zhan’s face darkened, and he said coldly, “Ninth young master, Brother Qiu and I are considering our friendship. There’s no need for you to say such unpleasant things, right？”

“Do I have any friendship with the two of you？” Yang Kai tilted his head and smiled lightly. “Why don’t I remember？”

Yang Kai could be said to have no interaction with Kang Zhan and Qiu Ziruo at all. He had drunk wine with the former once, which was not long after he returned to the central capital and was called over by Yang Zhao. However, it ended in an unpleasant way. He hadn’t even said a word to Qiu Ziruo.

Kang Zhan took a deep breath and shouted loudly, “Since the ninth young master said so, then Kang doesn’t need to waste words. We really don’t have much friendship. Let’s see the truth with our hands！ If there are any offenses later, we can only blame the ninth young master for your bad luck！”

“Likewise！”

Kang Zhan continued to shout, “Before we set off, the Second Young Master told us that if the Ninth Young Master is willing to surrender, we should not make things difficult for you, so as not to damage your brotherly friendship! So I still have to ask, whether the Ninth Young Master is willing to accept the Second Young Master’s kindness?

Yang Kai shook his head with a smile： “You know, why bother to ask？”

“Good！” Kang Zhan nodded heavily.

“Why waste words with him？ The experts of my Xiangnan family will go to contain Yingjiu, and the rest of us will rush up and capture him.” Nan Sheng’s eyes were spitting fire, and he couldn’t wait to defeat Yang Kai and humiliate him severely to relieve the resentment in his heart these days.

Kang Zhan’s brows furrowed slightly, but he didn’t say anything. He knew that this Nan Sheng had a lot of resentment towards Yang Kai. Moreover, he also had such a plan.

Although there were quite a few people brought by Yang Kai, there were not many Divine Movement Realm experts among them. Those people from the Lingxiao Pavilion were simply not taken seriously by Kang Zhan.

Just as he was about to give the order to move, Yang Kai’s voice came over again： “Brother Kang, how about making a deal with you？”

“What’s the matter？” Kang Zhan’s brows furrowed.

“In this battle, only Yingjiu and I will fight！ If you can defeat Yingjiu and me, then you can make great contributions in front of my Second Brother！”

Hearing what he said, Kang Zhan and Qiu Ziruo couldn’t help but be stunned, looking at him in disbelief.

They seemingly hadn’t expected that Yang Kai didn’t plan to use the more than one hundred helpers around him.

Although those more than one hundred people didn’t catch Kang Zhan’s eye, if they really fought, they would definitely be able to cause some losses to his own side.

So upon hearing Yang Kai’s this proposal, Kang Zhan subconsciously thought that Yang Kai was going to play some kind of trick, and his expression immediately became hesitant.

On Yang Kai’s side, several Martial Uncles of High Heaven Pavilion became excited instead, one after another expressing that they wanted to contribute, and even if they died in battle, they would never stand by idly, with passionate expressions and firm attitudes.

“You can’t have any losses.” Yang Kai shook his head, rejecting their kindness, with a solemn expression, “I’m a member of the Yang Family, they don’t dare to kill me. If I can’t beat them, I can run, and they have no way to take me！ But if you go up and have casualties, how can I explain to my Martial Uncle？”

“Martial Uncles can choose not to help, but I’m going up！” Su Yan looked at Yang Kai, with a firm gaze.

Yang Kai looked at her, pondered for a while, and then nodded. Su Yan’s strength was the same as his own, and one couldn’t infer it based on her cultivation level. Moreover, she was dual cultivating with him, and if they fought side by side, there might be some unexpected effects.

Su Yan smiled sweetly.

“Brother Kang, I’ve changed my mind. There are three people on my side going into battle, me, Ying Jiu, and my Senior Sister Su Yan！” Yang Kai shouted over there with a casual expression, “Defeat us, and I’ll withdraw from the battle for the succession！”

Kang Zhan was guessing what Yang Kai was going to do exactly. Hearing this, his expression became strange. He felt that Yang Kai really seemed to have such an intention and was not trying to play any tricks.

“It seems that those people are very important to Yang Kai. He actually went to great lengths to protect them.” Nan Sheng sneered and his aura became dangerous, like a cold poisonous snake, staring at the people of Lingxiao Pavilion.

Xiang Chu also sneered aside.

Kang Zhan frowned and shouted, “Ninth Young Master, can you tell me why?”

“No reason.” Yang Kai slowly shook his head. “These people are my uncles, senior and junior brothers and sisters of my sect！ If they suffer any damage, I’m afraid I can’t control myself. In case I get excited and kill… and make it impossible for you and Young Master Qiu to return to the battle city, it will be impossible to explain to the Kang family and the Qiu family.”

“People from the heretical sect Lingxiao Pavilion？” The complexions of Kang Zhan and Qiu Ziruo changed, and they immediately understood what sect these more than a hundred people came from, and a hint of dread couldn’t help but surge up.

Lingxiao Pavilion cannot be treated the same as other second-class sects. It is a sect that has produced a heretical master！

“This proposal is beneficial to both you and me. How about Brother Kang think about it carefully？” Yang Kai urged.

“Young Master Kang, don’t promise him！” Nan Sheng licked her lips and stared over there gloomily. “Everyone from the Evil Sect can be killed. Maybe among these people, another Evil Lord will appear one day. Killing all of them now can be regarded as preventing future troubles！”

“I think so too！” Xiang Chu nodded in agreement.

Kang Zhan cast a glance at them and snorted softly. He knew in his heart that they wanted to take personal revenge. Since Yang Kai had already made his words so clear, they still wanted to counter Yang Kai’s taboo, obviously trying to make him suffer and avenge their previous grudges.

However, Qiu Ziruo shook his head and said, “Brother Kang, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with promising him. In the current situation we have an absolute advantage. We can sell him a favor at the right time. I think the Second Young Master also doesn’t want to push things too far.”

In Qiu Ziruo’s opinion, capturing Yang Kai this time was a sure thing without any suspense.

Since that was the case, there was no need to really anger him.

Killing those hundred-odd people from Lingxiao Pavilion would be of no help in the fight for the succession, and would only make Yang Kai bear a grudge against everyone here.

He, Qiu Ziruo, also didn’t want to be remembered by Yang Kai. This was a somewhat lawless man.

Hearing this, Kang Zhan nodded slightly. “What Brother Qiu said makes sense.”

Nan Sheng and Xiang Chu looked at each other and couldn’t help but see the annoyance in each other’s hearts. There was a great opportunity to take revenge on Yang Kai right in front of them, but they had no decision-making power, so naturally they were depressed in their hearts.

Ninth Young Master, I promise you！” Kang Zhan shouted loudly over there. “This battle will not affect the people of your sect, provided that they don’t interfere either. Otherwise, the casualties will be at their own risk！

Of course！” Yang Kai took a light breath and smiled. “Actually, I’m doing this for your own good.
