Chapter 527

After hearing Yang Kai’s answer, Yang Zhen didn’t take it to heart either, as if he had expected it long ago. He just nodded slightly and said, “Since this is your choice, then this old man won’t say much more. Take care of yourself. However, this old man wants to remind you that since the seven great families have smelled a hint of something fishy, they will not let it go easily. Our Yang Family will not break off relations with the other seven families because of you. If you don’t return to the family to receive protection, you simply won’t be able to fend for yourself.”

After saying that, Yang Zhen stood up and left together with several other elders.

Before leaving, the woman turned around and took a look at Yang Kai, and said softly, “You should consider it again. Doing this won’t do you any harm. Even if your cultivation base is abolished, you can still live peacefully in the Yang Family. The family is willing to fulfill all your requests.”

Yang Kai looked at her coldly, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

The woman slowly shook her head, didn’t say anything more, and quickly left following the others.

After they left, Yang Kai took a deep breath, and a hint of fatigue emerged on his face.

An ordinary man is innocent, but possessing a jade is a crime. This is the best way to describe the Myriad Medicine Spiritual Liquid. This is also the reason why he has always hidden the Myriad Medicine Spiritual Liquid. Except for a few people he trusts the most who know of its existence, he has never told anyone else.

However, the eight great families have spotted some doubts through certain phenomena, and it’s not something Yang Kai can prevent.

It can’t be said that just because he has a good thing, he doesn’t care about his parents anymore, right？

The reason why the strength of those people in the mansion has improved rapidly is also because Xia Ning Shang is using the Ten Thousand Medicine Spirit Liquid to refine pills. The medicinal effect of the spirit liquid penetrates into the pills, stimulating the functions of the pills and, in a way, helping them wash the meridians and refine the marrow optimizing their qualifications.

However, their speed of strength improvement is still relatively slow after all, because they didn’t directly take the spirit liquid.

Judging from the strength of the eight great families and their degree of coveting the Ten Thousand Medicine Spirit Liquid, this matter is very tricky and is highly likely to develop into a very bad situation.

Walking out of the side hall, he happened to encounter Qiu Yimeng with a panicked expression.

Yang Kai rarely saw Qiu Yimeng show such a helpless expression. The eldest miss Qiu has always been calm and composed, even when encountering the biggest and most dangerous things, she would not lose her composure.

But now, her anxiety and fear are written all over her face. As long as one is not blind, anyone can see it.

“Yang Kai.” Qiu Yimeng gently called out, and her voice trembled slightly.

Yang Kai’s expression was calm, and he looked straight at her： “What happened？”

“My father sent someone to deliver a message, asking me to return to the family quickly.” Qiu Yimeng replied hurried.

“They act so fast.” Yang Kai’s smile was filled with warmth, but his eyes were as cold as a blade.

As soon as Yang Zhen left, the Qiu Family sent someone to deliver a message to Qiu Yimeng, asking her to return to the Central Capital immediately. The eight great families are indeed like grasshoppers tied to the same rope.

“What do you mean?” Qiu Yimeng looked at Yang Kai suspiciously. When she received the message just now, for some reason, her heart panicked, so she hurriedly ran to see Yang Kai, but heard him say such a confusing sentence and her heart became even more frightened.

“It’s nothing.” Yang Kai adjusted his expression and asked with a smile, “When will you leave？”

“I’m about to leave right away.” Qiu Yimeng bit her red lip gently. “And my father’s message is to let me take the people of the Autumn Rain Hall back as well.”

The Autumn Rain Hall was the only batch of assistance that Qiu Yimeng brought when she moved into Yang Kai’s residence.

“I see.”

Qiu Yimeng gently shook her head, with a pained expression： “I don’t know why, but I always have a feeling of restlessness, as if something big is going to happen this time. Moreover, if I leave here, I’m afraid… I’m afraid I’ll never be able to come back.”

Qiu Shoucheng asking Qiu Yimeng to take the people of the Autumn Rain Hall back already says a lot.

Qiu Yimeng is not a fool. Instead, she is very shrewd and can smell the mystery in it.

However, she has no idea at all what all this is for. She came to help Yang Kai participate in the battle for the throne Youdaoplaceholder0 is separated from the family. She represents is not the Qiu Family, but herself.

The real ally of the Qiu family is actually Yang Shen, the sixth son of the Yang family. The fight for the throne has not ended yet, and there is no reason for the Qiu family to suddenly recall her.

“You’re overthinking it.” Yang Kai grinned at her.

Qiu Yimeng nervously grabbed Yang Kai’s arm and looked at him with a pleading gaze. She said softly, “Do you know something？”

Yang Kai shook his head. “How could I know about the affairs of your Qiu family？”

“Is it related to the arrival of the elders of the Yang family？” Qiu Yimeng pursued.

The perception of the eldest miss of the Qiu family is as amazing as ever.

“No.” Yang Kai still shook his head. “Maybe your father hasn’t seen you for such a long time and misses you, so he recalled you to take a look.”

Qiu Yimeng stared blankly at Yang Kai and slowly let go of the hands that were holding him. She smiled bitterly and said, “You are always like this, and you are unwilling to tell me anything.”

Yang Kai opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say.

“Since this is the case…” Qiu Yimeng took a deep breath. “Then I won’t ask anymore. Take care of yourself.”

“During this period of time, you have worked hard. I’d see you off!” Yang Kai’s voice was low and he said softly.

Outside the mansion, the people of the Qiu Yu Hall were ready to go. Qiu Yimeng and Yang Kai looked at each other, and neither of them spoke. One had a look of expectation and longing in her eyes, and the other had a plain expression.

The atmosphere was very strange.

After a long while, the light in Qiu Yimeng’s eyes gradually dimmed. With a bitter smile, she turned around and led the people of Qiu Yu Tang towards Zhongdu.

Until the end, she didn’t hear a single word of retention from Yang Kai’s mouth.

If Yang Kai had been willing to retain her for a moment, she would have been willing to ignore the summons of the Qiu family and stay here.

Yang Kai watched her leave.

Both of them knew that this time, Qiu Yimeng really couldn’t come back.

Suddenly, a group of three people walked towards them. The leader had a steady pace and eyes like electricity. Two experts at the peak of the Divine Movement Realm followed beside him. Each of them had restrained their auras and exuded a natural dignity.

This was the posture that only a truly high-ranking and powerful person could have.

Qiu Yimeng’s steps immediately stopped. She looked at the visitor in surprise and bowed: “Uncle Huo!”

Huo Zheng, the head of the Huo family, stopped and smiled at Qiu Yimeng, nodding slightly： “Niece, are you going back to Zhongdu？”

“Yes.” Qiu Yimeng nodded slightly, with a smile on her face.

“It’s good to go back. Go back early. Your father is waiting.”

After saying that, he led the two experts of the Huo family and strode towards Yang Kai’s residence.

Qiu Yimeng turned around, her face full of shock.

She didn’t expect that not only was she recalled by the Qiu family’s order, but even Huo Xingchen would be taken back.

Huo Zheng’s appearance here was clearly to capture that playboy Huo Xingchen. If Huo Zheng didn’t take action, no one in the Huo family could do anything to Huo Xingchen, so he had to come over in person.

Outside the mansion. Yang Kai looked indifferently at the approaching people and, like Qiu Yimeng, greeted Huo Zheng.

Huo Zheng nodded slightly and looked at Yang Kai with a complex gaze.

“If you’re looking for Young Master Huo, he’s inside the mansion.” Yang Kai said calmly.

“Hmm. I’ll go by myself.” Huo Zheng nodded and didn’t say much. He led two experts from the clan and strode into Yang Kai’s mansion.

Not long after, Yang Kai heard Huo Xingchen’s pig-killing-like shrill cries. Soon, Huo Zheng walked out again. At this moment, the eldest son of the Huo family in Zhongdu, Huo the Wolf, was being under the arm of a Divine Movement Realm Layer 9 expert and had no power to resist.

“Old guy, put me down！” Huo Xingchen shouted while struggling, but it was of no use. That expert ignored him completely.

“Offend me, and you’re dead. Do you believe that I’ll castrate you and chop you up to feed the dogs？” Huo Xingchen continued to shout.

Who do you think you are? Claim to be Laozi in front of me! Huo Zheng looked at his son with a sinister gaze.

Huo Xingchen immediately fell silent and said with a forced smile： “Father, I wasn’t talking to you. But what on earth are you going to do? It’s so embarrassing in public.”

“Shut up and come back to Zhongdu with me！”

“Why？” Huo Xingchen was confused.

“Shut up when I tell you to shut up, so wordy. Be careful I slap you in the face.”

“Dad, dad, dad… Let’s talk things over. A gentleman uses his mouth, not his hands… All right, all right, I’ll go back to Zhongdu with you, but you have to let me say goodbye to Young Master Kai. We’ve been through so much together for so long, and I’ve developed some feelings with Young Master Kai.”

Huo Zheng paused in his steps, frowned and looked at him, then looked at Yang Kai, and then nodded slightly.

The expert of the Huo family immediately released Huo Xingchen.

“I’m waiting for you over there.” Huo Zheng ordered in a deep voice.

“Got it.” Huo Xingchen nodded seriously.

After the three people of the Huo family had gone far away. Huo Xingchen then chuckled, tilted his head and looked at Yang Kai, and said, “It seems… Something has happened.

He saw that Qiu Yimeng was also over there, looking like she was about to leave, and couldn’t help but feel a sudden in his heart. Combined with the fact that his own father had come to arrest him in person, Huo Xingchen also realized a hint of an unusual atmosphere.

“It’s inconvenient to say？” Huo Xingchen shrugged his shoulders. “Forget it, consider I didn’t ask. Anyway, my father is here, and I can’t stay either. Knowing too much is not good for me either.”

His expression suddenly became serious again, and Huo Xingchen said in a low voice, “Young Master Kai, you are destined to do great things. I don’t want you to die prematurely. I don’t know what exactly happened this time, but it must be a difficult hurdle. You have to get through it. No matter what others think of you, I firmly support you. If you die earlier than me, hehe… I will dig up your body and whip it hundreds of times every day for the rest of my life… I, Huo Xingchen, have never worshiped anyone in my life. Don’t waste my respect.”

The corners of Yang Kai’s mouth turned up, and he smiled evilly： “Goodbye, don’t see you off！”

“Farewell！” Huo Xingchen laughed heartily and stepped forward.”

The young masters and ladies of the two super families left Yang Kai’s mansion at the same time, and one of them was Yang Kai’s right-hand man all along.”

Outside the mansion, several young leaders who heard the news were all shocked and completely didn’t understand what had happened.”

The change came so quickly, like a violent storm, without giving people any time to prepare.”

It was not until the figures of Qiu Yimeng and Huo Xingchen disappeared that the crowd still didn’t come back to their senses.”

After a long while, they suddenly asked Yang Kai in a hubbub.”

“Don’t make any noise！” Han Xiaoqi of the Myriad Flowers Palace stood up, “With you making so much noise, how can Yang Kai answer？”

The crowd immediately fell silent and all looked at Yang Kai eagerly, hoping that he could give an answer.”

“Come in and talk.” Yang Kai took a light breath and turned around to walk into the mansion.

Everyone also hurriedly followed.
