Chapter 870
byYang Kai’s angry shout rang in his ears, like the buzzing of thunder. The man in the yellow robe trembled, and couldn’t help but hide in the crowd, instinctively trying to find some sense of security.
But no matter where he hid, there was always a feeling of a sharp sword hanging above his head, and the breath of death rushed towards him.
“If you dare to attack me, you will surely regret it in the future！”
The man in the yellow robe roared tremblingly and hysterically.
“Threaten me？” Yang Kai curled his lips, with a look of disdain on his face. “Those who dare to threaten me all have a miserable ending！”
Chi…
A strange and soft sound came out. The man in the yellow robe who was dodging in the crowd suddenly felt a force enter his body. The next moment, his body swelled up like a balloon and became round and huge in an extremely short time.
His face turned extremely red. The man in the yellow robe could even clearly feel that his internal organs, flesh, and bones were being squeezed and shattered due to this unreasonable swelling.
Intense pain came from all over his body, and blood flowed out from his seven orifices.
Huge panic descended. He felt that he was about to die, yet his senses were still so clear and sharp.
“Help… help me…” The man in the yellow robe squeezed out a few words with great difficulty from his mouth. His eyeballs rolled upwards, showing only white and no black, and his whole body twitched continuously.
Peng…
A dull sound came, and the man in the yellow robe suddenly exploded into a ball of blood and water, with no bones left.
Pieces of meat and internal organs flew around, dyeing the martial artists near him a bloody red color.
Everyone’s eyeballs were trembling, and their hearts were filled with fear. They all kept silent like cicadas in winter.
The martial artists who had clamored before did not dare to look at Yang Kai directly at this moment, for fear that he would suddenly make a move and kill them all together.
“This is the end of threatening me！” Yang Kai laughed, with a happy expression, as if he had done a trivial matter and was very calm.
Suddenly, his expression turned cold again, and he shouted in a low voice： “If you are just here for fun. Our Nine Heavens Holy Land welcomes you very much, but if you have some ulterior motives, then don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Chi chi chi…
One after another golden true essence suddenly shot out, like fanged snakes. It seemed to have targeted several warriors in the crowd and directly attacked them, accurately hitting their bodies without the slightest deviation.
Just like that man in the yellow robe, these several warriors all had their bodies swell up, and when they reached the limit, they exploded with a loud bang. Experiencing the fear that came from the depths of their souls before dying.
Seeing that Yang Kai really killed people as soon as he said so, and had no intention of stopping, how could the warriors gathered here still dare to stay? They all let out strange cries, exerted all their strength, and fled for their lives.
They no longer wanted to stay outside the Nine Peaks.
Yang Kai raised his hand and a chain-like true essence shot out, binding a middle-aged man from the fleeing crowd and dragging him back.
That middle-aged man trembled all over and his face turned pale. Seeing that others had all escaped safely, but only he was left behind, he couldn’t help but loudly beg for mercy and kowtow like pounding garlic.
“You were yelling quite loudly just now.” Yang Kai sneered and looked at him.
“Holy Lord, spare my life! I dare not do it again. I will never come to the Nine Heavens Holy Land again. Holy Lord, spare my life!”
Yang Kai looked at him with contempt and said condescendingly, “This time I won’t kill you, but you help me bring a message！”
When the man heard this, he quickly agreed, “Please tell me, Holy Lord！”
“I don’t care who instigated you to do these things. After you go back, tell him that if he dares to use such despicable and dirty means to try to enrage me next time I will definitely go to his sect in person and exterminate his sect and his entire family, leaving no one alive!
The man’s expression froze. Only then did he realize that Yang Kai had already seen through the little trick. He quickly nodded and said, “I will definitely bring it！”
“Get out！” Yang Kai shouted sternly.
The middle-aged man thanked him and quickly fled in a stumbling manner.
Looking at the figure of that man fleeing, Shi Kun’s expression was solemn. He said worriedly, “Holy Lord, will there be any problems with this?”
“Don’t worry, they are just a few clowns. If they die, they die.” Yang Kai shook his head. “Next time, if you find such people who have bad intentions towards the Holy Land outside the Holy Land, once they are found out kill them directly. There is no need to reason with them.”
“Yes！” Shi Kun quickly responded, and the look in his eyes when looking at Yang Kai gradually became excited.
He suddenly found that the personality of this new Holy Lord was very different from that of the old Holy Lord. The old Holy Lord always considered the overall situation when doing things and thought a lot. He would never do anything that was not conducive to the Holy Land.
But this new Holy Lord was different. His methods were very tough and his personality was also very cold.
Such a temper suits Shi Kun’s appetite very well！
Sure enough, he is a young man, full of vigor and vitality. I hope that in the future, the Holy Land can also be as vibrant as this new Holy Lord.
The warriors wandering outside the Nine Peaks are just a group of small fry. Yang Kai simply didn’t take them seriously. If he hadn’t happened to come back and encounter this, he wouldn’t have bothered to intervene.
After giving Shi Kun some instructions, Yang Kai returned to the Nine Peaks again.
Li Rong respectfully took her leave, saying that she was going to distribute those few Saint-level secret treasures to each commander, so that they could refine them as soon as possible to assist in the growth of their combat power.
Holy Lord’s Garden！
It is the place where the Lord of the Nine Heavens Holy Land lives.
All previous Holy Lords have lived in this exquisite and magnificent building complex, enjoying the peak of the mountain with the best scenery and the richest spiritual energy.
Now that Yang Kai is in charge of the Nine Heavens Holy Land, this naturally becomes his residence.
Besides him, there is another person living here, and that is the Holy Maiden An Ling’er.
According to the original rules of the Nine Heavens Holy Land, the Holy Maiden lives for the Holy Lord. Everything of the Holy Maiden is prepared for the strength of the Holy Lord. They can offer everything of themselves to the Holy Lord, including their lives.
Every Holy Maiden has been instilled with such thoughts since childhood.
When Yang Kai returned here, he happened to see An Ling’er staying in her own wing room, propping up her fragrant cheek and sitting by the table, with red eye sockets and lost in thought.
Yang Kai watched her for a while, but she didn’t respond.
It was not until Yang Kai sat down opposite the table that An Ling’er suddenly woke up. She quickly stood up and gracefully saluted, saying, “Is the Holy Master back？”
“Don’t be so polite, right?” Yang Kai gave a wry smile, poured himself a cup of tea, and looked at her, asking, “How is Saintess Nan… ?”
Hearing Yang Kai’s question, An Ling’er seemed even more depressed. She softly said, “Still the same…”
“What are you going to do？”
“I want to try to resolve the obsession in her heart, but I still don’t know what to do！”
Saintess Nan is a living corpse. The reason why she can still move now is completely because of the obsession in her heart. Once it is resolved, her physical body will stop moving and she will completely close her eyes.
According to Yang Kai’s idea, the most convenient thing is to directly blast Saintess Nan’s corpse to pieces and be done with it. But An Ling’er has a deep affection for her and obviously doesn’t want to do that.
“Isn’t there any record in the Holy Land in this regard？” Yang Kai asked with a frown.
“There should be！” An Ling’er wiped the corner of her eye. “Because historical records show that such a thing has also happened in the Holy Land before.”
“Look for it patiently. Maybe you can find a solution.” Yang Kai comforted.
An Ling’er nodded slightly： “That’s what I think too…”
After a moment of silence, Yang Kai suddenly found that An Ling’er had a hesitant expression, as if there was something difficult to say.
Smiling, he said, “Don’t be so polite with me. Just say whatever you have to say. I will definitely help if I can.”
An Ling’er’s small face flushed, she pursed her red lips, and said softly, “Actually, it’s the elders who are asking…”
“What are they asking？”
“Asking… about our matter.” An Ling’er’s face became even redder, her eyes were watery, and she was a little embarrassed.”
Yang Kai was stunned and suddenly reacted, smiling wryly, “What are they in a hurry for?
“Of course they are in a hurry…” An Ling’er sneered, “You are the master of the Holy Land, and they all hope that you can grow up as soon as possible and become a hegemon.”
Every generation of Holy Masters has grown at an unimaginable speed through cultivation with the Holy Maiden.
And every generation of Holy Masters has been able to grow to the top cultivation level of the Third-Order Saint Realm.
Therefore, the Nine Heavens Holy Land has been able to stand for so many years and has a great reputation on the Tongxuan Continent.
“So what do you think？” Yang Kai’s expression became serious, and he looked at An Ling’er and asked.
An Ling’er lowered her head, her fingers pinched her clothes, a little nervous and uneasy, and stammered, “We Holy Maidens have been instilled since childhood to obey the orders of the Holy Master and follow the Holy Master in everything. So this matter… still has to be decided by you. I will listen to whatever you say.”
An Ling’er looked so well-behaved and obedient that Yang Kai felt overwhelmed.
The Holy Maiden is already extremely beautiful, a rare beauty. Now that she is showing such an expression, any man would probably be moved.
Yang Kai also felt that at this moment, An Ling’er was extremely charming.
Sighing slightly, Yang Kai corrected his expression and said in a deep voice, “You said before that we are friends, right？”
An Ling’er nodded slightly.
“Since we are friends, then I’ll tell you the truth…” Yang Kai’s expression was solemn. “I encountered some things in the Holy Mausoleum and also understood the mystery of why the Holy Land Master can quickly improve his strength.”
“What mystery？” An Ling’er couldn’t help but become interested. Although she was the Holy Maiden, she still didn’t quite understand this secret.”
“The reason why the Holy Land Master can quickly improve his strength and reach the Third Layer of the Saint Realm is entirely at the cost of consuming his own and the Holy Maiden’s vitality to obtain power.”
“Consume vitality？”
“Yes.” Yang Kai nodded and carefully explained, “Everyone has different degrees of vitality. Those with strong vitality can live longer, while those with weak vitality are the opposite. Moreover, as the strength increases, the vitality of warriors will also be enhanced. However, the cultivation method of the Holy Land Master can only be cultivated at the cost of vitality. Therefore, every Holy Land Master is extremely talented, has profound strength, but also has a short lifespan！”
An Ling’er’s small mouth opened slightly, as if she had heard some secret.
“I don’t plan to cultivate that kind of cultivation method, nor will I let you cultivate it！” Yang Kai looked at her seriously. “Because I want to live longer. You and I are friends, and I don’t want to see my friend die prematurely.”
An Ling’er’s beautiful eyes shone brightly, as if she was somewhat touched.
“I don’t have many friends. You are one of them. I hope we can cherish the current feeling well in the future. The identities of the Holy Lord and Holy Maiden are just for the outside world. In private, let’s treat each other as equals. How about it？”
An Ling’er nodded repeatedly.
