Chapter Index

Soon, Yang Kai followed that person out of the dungeon. After coming outside, that person looked back at Yang Kai again, as if wanting to say something to warn him, but after seeing Yang Kai’s current state, his complexion couldn’t help but change, and he pointed at him with a gaping mouth and said, “You… your body…”

“Is there a problem?” Yang Kai’s expression was indifferent.

“Weren’t you almost dead? How come your body…”

Before, Yang Kai’s body was missing a lot of flesh and blood, and it was also pierced through. The clansmen all thought that he was on the verge of death and would definitely die.

But now he looks intact, and that person couldn’t help but be a little surprised and felt it was hard to accept.

“My recovery ability is more powerful than that of ordinary people!”

“This is also way too powerful.” That person looked at Yang Kai with a distrustful gaze, and suddenly shouted coldly, “Kid, do you have any miraculous elixirs for healing? If you do, take them out quickly, so as not to suffer later.”

“I don’t have such a thing.” Yang Kai shook his head indifferently.

That person looked Yang Kai up and down, seemingly trying to find the trace of the Qiankun Bag. Unfortunately, he found nothing in the end and looked a little disappointed. With hatred in his heart, he pushed and shoved Yang Kai and brought him to a great hall.

There were quite a few people in that great hall, and all of these people had ruddy complexions and looked in high spirits. Streams of intense but scorching auras of different intensities emanated from these people.

All the people here, regardless of gender or age, just like Yang Kai, cultivated Yang Attribute cultivation techniques. Moreover, their cultivation bases were not low. The weakest one was at the 8th Layer of Divine Movement Realm, and there were several Transcendent Realm experts.

There were more than a dozen people gathered in the hall, and the leader was an old man with a rich and profound aura. This old man had red hair and exuded a natural dignity even when not angry, looking very hale and hearty.

Beside the old man, there stood a young man with a square face, wearing a gray shirt. The faint fluctuations of True Yuan leaking from his body also seemed very powerful.

This young man should be at the 3rd Layer of Transcendent Realm!

When Yang Kai arrived here, this group of people should have been discussing something. As soon as they saw him arrive, the crowd cast surprised glances over one after another and no longer continued the previous topic. Instead, they showed a strong interest in him.

“Leader, the person has been brought here!” The person who led Yang Kai here clasped his fists and said. The old man sitting above nodded slightly and waved his hand at him. That person respectfully retreated. Before leaving, he also glared at Yang Kai warningly, suggesting that he’d better be honest.

“Yi Feng, this is the human you captured back?” The old man stroked his beard, nodded gently, and his deep gaze looked at Yang Kai.

While speaking, Yang Kai clearly felt a scorching breath penetrate into his body, from the inside out, checking him thoroughly.

“Yes, Leader.” The young man standing aside quickly replied, and the expression looking at Yang Kai also became strange.

“Didn’t it say that this human was about to die? Why is he standing here properly now?” The old man asked again.

Yi Feng scratched his head and frowned, saying, “I don’t know either. When I captured him back, he did looked like he was going to die, and I also thought he wouldn’t live for a few days… Hey, you brat, what’s the situation exactly?

Yang Kai looked at him and then at the old man, frowning and saying, “Judging from the tone of your speech, you are not human?”

Only the living beings of other races would address the word human.

“Arrogant!” Yi Feng’s expression turned cold. “Answer whatever I ask. There is no place for you to speak here.”

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a surging energy shot out from under his hand, like a whip, hitting Yang Kai’s body.

With a snap, a bloodstain appeared on Yang Kai’s body, and his true yuan was sealed. He simply couldn’t resolve such an attack.

Yang Kai’s body remained motionless, gritted his teeth secretly, and looked at the young man with a ferocious expression.

“Quite backbone!” Yi Feng sneered again and again. While speaking, the true yuan in his hand spurted out, and judging from his posture, it seemed that he was going to give Yang Kai a good lesson.

“That’s enough, Yi Feng!” The old man suddenly raised his hand and stopped his whipping of Yang Kai. He looked at Yang Kai with a hint of curiosity and smiled, saying, “You human have some skills. If I’m not mistaken, the strength of your physical body is not inferior to that of an ordinary Saint Realm cultivator, right?”

“Impossible, leader?” Yi Feng’s complexion changed, and he said in surprise, “But his cultivation is only at the Supernatural First Layer Realm.”

He must have persisted in tempering his body to achieve what he has today To have such a strong body at such a young age “is amazing!” The old man showed a look of approval and then asked, “How did you do it?”

“Being whipped tens of thousands of times a day by others, anyone can do it.” Yang Kai grinned and said.

“It’s a stupid method, but it makes sense.” The old man didn’t know if he was aware that Yang Kai was perfunctorily answering him and didn’t seem to pursue it. With a gentle expression, he said, “Because you are a human, that’s why I spared your life and didn’t kill you on the spot. If you were a Demon Race, you wouldn’t have such good luck.”

As he spoke, his face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, “Lad, I’ll ask you some questions. If your answers satisfy me, I can let you live a little longer. If not… you know the consequences.”

Under the circumstances, Yang Kai could only nod.

“Do you have any relationship with the Demon Race?”

“No relationship.”

“No relationship? Then why did you appear here? And where did you come in from?”

“Under the sea!” In an ancient ruin, there was a Void Tunnel. My companions and I were being chased by a powerful expert, and we had no choice but to go into that Void Tunnel. When we came to our senses, we arrived here.

While Yang Kai was speaking, the old man kept staring at him intently, as if trying to see if he was lying. After he finished speaking, the old man pondered for a moment and then furrowed his brows and said, “Tell me exactly what happened to you in detail.”

Under the gaze of the other party, Yang Kai didn’t hide anything and told the previous encounter truthfully. The strength of this old man was unfathomable, and he didn’t know if he had any special abilities. Lying at this time might have the opposite effect.

“Youdaoplaceholder0 from the hands of a Saint Realm powerhouse?” The old man was full of astonishment. “You have quite some ability!”

“Just got lucky. Almost died too.”

The old man nodded slightly, approving of Yang Kai’s explanation.

“Why do you think I have something to do with the Demon Race? And where is my companion now? How is she?” Yang Kai asked in return.

“Kid, you have quite a few questions,” Yi Feng snorted coldly.

The old man also frowned, seemingly not liking Yang Kai’s many words, but still said, “Because in our place, only the Demon Race can enter. You are the first batch of humans to come here. As for your companion, you don’t have to worry. She is fine, just restricted in freedom.”

Saying this, he said to Yi Feng, “You go and check the place where they came from to see if there are other entrances. If you find any, destroy them immediately!”

Just as Yi Feng was about to agree, Yang Kai said, “No need to check. I destroyed that Void Tunnel before coming here.”

“Just because you say so?” Yi Feng gave Yang Kai a contemptuous look and still left quickly. Youdaoplaceholder0 he was going to take people to check the situation in that forest.

After he left, the old man continued, “You cultivate a Yang Attribute cultivation method?”

Yang Kai nodded.

The old man chuckled. “There aren’t many humans who cultivate Yang Attribute cultivation methods. Judging from your appearance, the cultivation method you cultivate isn’t too bad, right?

Yang Kai’s expression turned slightly stern. He thought the old man was interested in his True Yang Secret Art, but unexpectedly, the old man didn’t mean to ask in detail at all. He just said, “But even the best cultivation method is still much worse compared to ours.”

The old man said it was taken for granted, and the others also had a look of pride on their faces. Looking at their appearances it seemed that they all thought Yang Kai’s cultivation method was rubbish.

Yang Kai’s expression moved, and he said, “It seems that all of you are cultivating Yang-attribute cultivation methods. What race are you exactly, and what place is this?”

“Us?” The old man stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, then said, “We can be said to be human beings, but not really human beings!”

Yang Kai frowned, feeling confused.

“Our ancestors were human beings, but by our generation, we are already a little different from humans.” The old man said lightly, not explaining too much. “This is the place where we have always lived. People outside should call it the Small Mysterious Realm.”

“I saw that there were many people imprisoned in that dungeon. Those should all be demons, right? What hatred do you have with the demons?”

“Kid, you really have a lot of questions. It seems you are not afraid of death!” The old man looked at him coldly, but then gritted his teeth and said, “The hatred between the demons and us is irreconcilable. Sooner or later, we will wipe out all the demons. As for you, for the time being, I won’t kill you either. Your body seems to be a little different, and it should be of great use!”

Saying so, he swept a malicious gaze over Yang Kai and waved his hand. “Take him away!”

Immediately, a person rushed out from the side and took Yang Kai away.

After he left, the people in the hall started talking all at once.

“Chief, that kid’s physical quality is not ordinary. What’s more, he cultivates a Yang Attribute cultivation method. If he can be turned into the nourishment of the Divine Tree, I’m afraid it can make the Divine Tree stable for a while.”

“That’s right. The Divine Tree has been getting more and more unstable recently. If this goes on, I’m afraid we won’t have a place of refuge anymore.”

“Capturing those Demon Race people is not a long-term solution. Now we should think of a way to solve the problem of the Divine Tree. If the Divine Tree is gone… our clan will probably face a disaster.”

“Shut up!” The old man shouted coldly. “Do you think I don’t want to solve this problem? But I haven’t found the root cause all this time. How can I solve it?”

Hearing this, everyone’s expressions dimmed.

After a while, the old man ordered again. “Xu Chou, you go and tell the clansmen to take good care of that kid, give him the most delicate food, and also remove the restrictions on his body and send a fruit of the Divine Tree over. I want him to recover to his peak strength as soon as possible!”

“Yes.” The strong man named Xu Chou quickly got up and walked out.

Hearing this, everyone was shocked, knowing that the chief was going to make plans for the near future, and couldn’t help but look forward to it secretly.
