Chapter 777

The three saint-level powerhouses of the Demon Race, not knowing the details, fought with Saintess Nan, and in an instant, they fell into a hard battle.

Although there were three of them, Saintess Nan’s cultivation level was one small level higher than each of them. Fighting one against three, she did not fall behind in the slightest.

Seeing this, Yang Kai was overjoyed.

Without saying a word, he pulled An Ling’er and quickly fled away！

“This little bastard…” Although Yu Mo saw this scene, he simply couldn’t spare a hand to stop it. He couldn’t help but grind his teeth in hatred. Immediately, he knew that this mission was probably impossible to complete. He directly vented all his anger on Saintess Nan, not holding back with any of his moves. The Saint-level secret treasures he sacrificed emitted a tremendous power.

Half a stick of incense later, Yang Kai and An Ling’er had fled a hundred miles away. Even though they were so far apart, the earth-shattering fluctuations of the battle between the Saint Realm powerhouses over there could still be felt, and they couldn’t help but feel a little scared.

He always felt that there seemed to be an essential difference between the Saint Realm and the Transcendent Realm. This was not a gap in the great realm, but rather that the true essence flowing in the bodies of every Saint Realm powerhouse he had encountered was a little different from that of the Transcendent Realm.

Not having reached this level, Yang Kai had no idea what secrets lay within the Saint Realm and could only wait to ask someone about it later.

“Huh…” An Ling’er suddenly let out a soft exclamation, her fine eyebrows knitting into a line as if she was silently sensing something.

At the same time, Yang Kai’s expression also darkened. Under the detection of his spiritual awareness, he discovered that there were several extremely powerful top experts in front, rapidly approaching this direction at breakneck speed！

The auras emitted by these people were no weaker than those of Yu Mo and the others. Even one of them could be compared to Saintess Nan！

In this desolate wild, with so many Saint Realm experts suddenly appearing, it was difficult for Yang Kai not to take notice！

Just as Yang Kai was about to pull An Ling’er to avoid those oncoming experts, An Ling’er suddenly broke into a smile, looking completely relaxed： “It’s the people from my Holy Land！”

“Huh?” Yang Kai was astonished.

“We’re saved now. It must be Elder Xu Hui leading the people here！”

Hearing her say this, Yang Kai furrowed his brows. Although he felt it was a bit of a coincidence, it wasn’t completely inexplicable. If they were really experts from the Nine Heavens Holy Land, then they only need to track Saintess Nan’s figure to find An Ling’er’s trace – provided that An Ling’er was still alive.

Yang Kai instinctively had the idea of leaving immediately. He didn’t want to have any contact with the people of the Nine Heavens Holy Land, but this thought had just emerged and was suppressed by him.

Leaving at this time would give the impression of a guilty conscience. It would only make those powerful people suspicious. Moreover, Yang Kai wasn’t sure if, after he and An Ling’er separated, that Saintess Nan would let him go. If she repelled Yu Mo and the others and had the spare energy to pursue him alone, he simply wouldn’t be able to resist. In the current situation, it was undoubtedly safer to be with the powerful experts in front.

“An Ling’er…” Yang Kai suddenly softly called out.

“Hm？”

“How have I treated you during this period of time？”

“How?” An Ling’er was stunned for a moment and recalled carefully. Her face turned slightly red and she said softly, “Very well.”

Whether it was at the bottom of the sea, in the Little Mysterious Realm, or in the Demon Frontier, Yang Kai had taken great care of her. Even when fleeing, he would bring her along. After nearly a year of sharing weal and woe, An Ling’er had long regarded Yang Kai as someone to depend on.

“Help me with one thing. When you see the people of your Holy Land, absolutely don’t mention anything about the Saint Lord, and even more so, don’t tell them that I learned three moves of the Nine Heavens Divine Skills from you！”

“You really don’t want to be the Saint Lord？” An Ling’er keenly perceived Yang Kai’s intention.

Yang Kai slowly shook his head. “I said it before. I can reach that height even without becoming the Saint Lord. But if I become your Saint Lord, I’m afraid I’ll turn into a skeleton in less than three hundred years！ It doesn’t matter if I die, but there will be many people who will be sad！”

“All women, right？” An Ling’er asked softly, her tone a little sour.

“Cough… just one or two.” Yang Kai’s face looked a bit embarrassed.

“Alright, since you’re so repelled, then I won’t say anything. When we reach a safe place, you can leave on your own. Presumably, the Great Elder and the others won’t make things too difficult for you.” An Ling’er said, gently pursing her red lips.

“Hmm.” Yang Kai nodded slightly. His speed under his feet did not decrease as he directly went forward to meet them.

While the two were talking, several divine senses probed over from the opposite side, investigating and sensing here. In just a moment, these divine senses all revealed a kind of joy and excitement. Obviously, they had already recognized An Ling’er’s life aura.

Moments later, several long rainbows came into Yang Kai’s sight. From a distance, someone over there called out: “Is the person coming the Saintess?”

“Great Elder！” An Ling’er quickly responded.

“It is really the Saintess!” The speed of those several long rainbows increased even more. In the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of Yang Kai and An Ling’er.

Four Saint Realm cultivators！

The one in the lead should be the Great Elder Xu Hui that An Ling’er mentioned. He is at the Second-Order Saint Realm, not inferior to Saintess Nan at all. He is wearing a gray long shirt, his eyes are shining with light, and his expression is awe-inspiring even without anger.

Behind him are three other Saint Realm experts, who should all be powerhouses of the Nine Heavens Holy Land.

Such a powerful lineup shows the profound foundation of the Nine Heavens Holy Land. After all, if the old Saint Lord and Saintess Nan hadn’t died, there would be two more top powerhouses in this holy land.

Even a powerful force like the Tianxiao Sect only has two Saint Realm experts – Chu Lingxiao and another Shishu that Yang Kai has never seen before.

Compared with the Nine Heavens Holy Land, the Tianxiao Sect seems a bit weak.

With such a foundation, the Nine Heavens Holy Land can be regarded as a leading force on the entire continent. However, after suffering the misfortune of the old Saint Lord and saint Tess Nan’s both fell, the Nine Heavens Holy Land should decline a lot.

Thanks to the blessing of the old Saint Lord’s spirit in heaven, the Holy Maiden is indeed safe and sound! Xu Hui quickly clasped his fists and saluted, with a relieved look between his brows. Most of the other three powerhouses had the same expression. It can be seen that they were all very worried about An Ling’er’s safety. After seeing An Ling’er, they all quickly asked about her well-being.”

An Ling’er kept waving her hand, indicating that she was fine.

While speaking, the eyes of the Great Elder Xu Hui, like those of a hawk, suddenly fixed on Yang Kai, and a hint of approval emerged on his face. He nodded slightly and said, “This should be the future Holy Lord, right？”

Yang Kai’s complexion changed slightly, and his brows couldn’t help but frown. This old guy said such words when he saw him for the first time, which made Yang Kai a little at a loss.

An Ling’er was also taken aback and quickly shook her head and said, “No, Great Elder, you misunderstood…”

“Hehe, Holy Maiden, there is no need to hide it from me. I have learned from Qian Ning about what happened to you on that overseas archipelago!” Xu Hui kept nodding, and the look of appreciation and satisfaction in his eyes was extremely revealing： “Young and promising! To be able to comprehend three Nine Heavens Divine Skills at once, this is something that previous Holy Lords have never been able to do.”

Yang Kai was even more surprised in his heart, but on the surface he was indifferent and unperturbed by honor or disgrace, and had no intention of speaking.

On the contrary, An Ling’er was stunned for a moment and said in surprise, “Uncle Qian didn’t die？”

On that overseas archipelago, in order to create time for Yang Kai and An Ling’er to escape, Qian Ning and several other Transcendent Realm experts of the Nine Heavens Holy Land launched a suicidal attack on Saintess Nan. Yang Kai saw with his own eyes that he was beaten to pieces by Saintess Nan and there was no way he could have survived.

Xu Hui shook his head sadly. “Dead. Among the members of your inspection team, everyone except you is dead. However, Qian Ning left a message before he died. It is precisely because of this that I was able to learn that you have found the future Holy Lord！ It was also by following the trail of Saintess Nan that we were able to find you today！”

This was basically the same as what Yang Kai had guessed. However, when he thought of Qian Ning, Yang Kai gritted his teeth in hatred. This guy died, but before he died, he caused a big trouble for himself. He really deserved to die！

An Ling’er quietly looked at Yang Kai and found that his face didn’t’t look very good. Her heart couldn’t’t help but tremble and she didn’t know what to do.

“This place is not suitable for staying for a long time. We should leave quickly！” Xu Hui raised his eyes and looked more than a hundred miles away and said quickly.

Everyone nodded in succession.

Yang Kai frowned. “What about Saintess Nan… just ignore her?

Xu Hui smiled awkwardly. “To be honest, I may not be Saintess Nan’s opponent, so even if I want to take care of it, I can’t！”

“Then she will keep chasing me and An Ling’er in the future?” Yang Kai’s expression was slightly displeased.

“It will be fine when we return to the Holy Land. As long as we return to the Holy Land, Saintess Nan will not chase after us.” Another Saint Realm powerhouse quickly replied.

“So it is important for us to return to the Holy Land quickly！” When Xu Hui spoke, he looked at Yang Kai carefully, as if he respected him very much.

The other party’s attitude was very good. Although Yang Kai was unhappy in his heart and didn’t want to have anything to do with the Nine Heavens Holy Land, for the time being, he could only go with them.

Yang Kai decided to observe them for a while. If they showed any bad signs on the way, he would immediately leave and never appear in front of the people of the Nine Heavens Holy Land until he grew up.

However, now that Xu Hui and the others learned the news that he had learned the Nine Heavens Divine Skill, they were probably not going to let him leave easily, which made Yang Kai a little headache.

After getting his consent, Xu Hui’s expression relaxed. He wrapped Yang Kai and An Ling’er with true essence and quickly left.

In a short while, the group of people left the Demon Frontier.

The divine sense that had been locked on Yang Kai and An Ling’er, belonging to Saint Tnan was also cut off because of the distance.

It was not until this moment that Yang Kai let out a sigh of relief.

Flying all the way, Xu Hui seemed to be looking straight ahead, but in fact, he was also secretly observing, and his heart was full of surprises.

He found that An Ling’er seemed to care a lot about Yang Kai. That was not the care of a saintess for the future saint master, but the care of a woman for a man. From time to time, she would observe his words and expressions. Once Yang Kai showed a solemn expression, An Ling’er would be in a state of trepidation, and her heartbeats would also become much more rapid.

This future saint master… is is amazing!

Xu Hui knew better than anyone else who An Ling’er was. Which of the saintesses cultivated by the Holy Land didn’t look down on others？ This future Holy Lord was actually able to make the Saintess submissive in such a short time, which fully showed his charm and means.
