Chapter 921

In the battle for the succession back then, all those who followed Yang Kai had reaped great benefits. Xia Ning Shang , the senior sister, used the Myriad Medicine Spiritual Liquid to prepare a pool of medicinal liquid, allowing them to be reborn and their meridians to be cleansed and their bones to be refined. Each person’s talent had been improved to varying degrees.

Important figures like Huo Xingchen and Qiu Yimeng had reaped even greater benefits.

It could be said that their future achievements would not be too low either. Even if they only stayed in the place of Zhongdu, they would still be able to advance to the Supernatural Jing level.

Ten years had passed without seeing each other. Qiu Yimeng had already reached the peak cultivation of the Divine Movement Jing , but Huo Xingchen, who had been no less inferior to her back then, only had the sixth-layer cultivation. This made Yang Kai very surprised.

He didn’t know why his cultivation had fallen behind by such a large margin.

Hearing Yang Kai’s question like that, many people in the Yang Family’s great hall secretly laughed, as if they knew some inside story.

Qiu Yimeng even covered her small mouth and couldn’t help but laugh.

Huo Xingchen had a bitter face and cried out, “Young Master Kai, you don’t know. Brother’s days are bitter…”

He told the story in detail.

Yang Kai’s expression became extremely strange, and he was also speechless.

The Huo Family was one of the eight great families in Zhongdu. However, the previous generation’s family head, Huo Zheng, only had Huo Xingchen as his son. He had a whole bunch of daughters and regarded him as a treasure, spoiling him in every possible way.

After Huo Xingchen took over the position of the head of the family, the elders of the Huo family learned from the painful lessons of the previous head of the family and arranged marriages for Huo Xingchen early on, asking him to start a family and establish a career.

In the past ten years, the Huo family has selected more than a dozen ladies from prominent families for Huo Xingchen to fill his harem. Under the coercion of many elders, Huo Xingchen has also been diligent every day to continue the incense of the Huo family.

Tired to death, it would be strange if Huo Xingchen’s cultivation level didn’t lag behind.

“Alas, counting it down, this young master already has fifteen concubines and a wife.” Huo Xingchen looked at Yang Kai with a bitter face and sighed as he patted his shoulder： “I will introduce them to you when I have the opportunity another day. Although each of them is a beauty, this young master is really a bit powerless.”

Yang Kai looked at him with a face full of sympathy and didn’t know what to say. After thinking for a long time, he finally said： “Sorry for your loss…”

In the main hall, everyone burst into laughter.

It seems that the news of Yang Kai’s return has come. Immediately after Qiu Yimeng and Huo Xingchen, the other young heads of the eight families all came to the Yang family.

Meng Jiashan, the head of the Meng family, Liu Qingyao, the head of the Liu family, Kang Jian, the head of the Kang family. Gao Rangxian, the head of the Gao family, Ye Jingli, the head of the Ye family…

Among these five people, Yang Kai is more familiar with Meng Jiashan and Liu Qingyao, and he doesn’t know much about the remaining three.

This time they came together. Naturally, they also heard the news that Yang Kai had returned and led people to sweep away the Xiaoyao God Sect, and wanted to come and ask what to do in the future.

Learning that Yang Kai wanted to take the Yang family away from Zhongdu and go to the Tongxuan Continent, the five of them couldn’t make a decision for a while.

The affairs of a family are not something they can decide casually.

And they also have concerns.

In the power struggle for the throne back then. Naturally, the families that had the closest relationship with Yang Kai were the Huo family and the Qiu family. Qiu Yimeng and Huo Xingchen had also been assisting Yang Kai. It was beyond dispute that their two families would follow Yang Kai now. But the remaining five families had all opposed Yang Kai back then. Now that the situation had changed, they didn’t know how to clarify their positions.

Yang Kai, however, casually issued an invitation to them as well, inviting them to go with him to the Tongxuan Continent.

The matters of the past had all passed. Yang Kai didn’t care. After all, these five families were also people from Zhongdu. If he could help them, it was just a piece of cake for Yang Kai and wouldn’t cost him much effort.

However, all five of them said that they had to go back and discuss carefully with the elders of their respective families before making a decision.

The five people left. Not long after the main hall became quiet, countless people came in a mighty manner.

All of them were Yang Kai’s friends when he participated in the power struggle for the throne in the Yang family back then.

Han Xiaoqi, Ye Han, Liu Qingru, and Hua Ruoyin from the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace.

Feng Qianhen from the Water Moon Hall.

Zuo Fang and Li Xinyuan from the Wenxin Palace.

Chen Xueshu and Shu Xiaoyu of the Yingyue Sect.

Tao Yang and Zhao Rong of the Baoqi Sect.

Leng Shan, Shen Yi, Chen Ying… of the Ghost King Valley.

After Yang Kai left, these people had been helping to rebuild Zhongdu. The Yang Family also felt grateful for their assistance to Yang Kai back then and had concluded some contracts that would bring prosperity to both sides with the sects where these people belonged, and handed them over to be managed by these people. Therefore, these people had also been living in Zhongdu as the contacts between the Yang Family and their respective sects.

During this disaster, they were not affected much, and everyone was intact.

When old acquaintances met, it was a joyous occasion. The four girls of the Wanhua Palace had all grown up and become pretty and charming and mature.

After the lively greetings, Yang Kai told them about his plan for this return, and everyone also said that they needed to ask the elders of their sects before making a decision.

After they left, Yang Kai said, “Second Brother, you discuss with the people in the Elder Hall whether to follow me or not and give me a reply as soon as possible. I will stay here for a while.”

“There is no need to discuss. Since you have arranged everything, our Yang Family will naturally follow you.” Yang Zhao was extremely straightforward and agreed without hesitation.

The other people also nodded one after another, and no one had any objections. The people in the Blood Servant Hall were even more excited and secretly happy that they could follow the young master and serve him again.

“Alright, then you all take this time to pack up. Just bring your most important things. As for some supplies and such, you can give them up. Those things won’t be valuable in the Tongxuan Continent.” Yang Kai gave an instruction and then looked at Qiu Yimeng and Huo Xingchen.

Young Master Huo said, “Whatever Qiu Yimeng does, I’ll do. Her vision is longer-term than mine.”

“I want to take the Qiu Family to the Tongxuan Continent.” Qiu Yimeng gave him a glance.

Huo Xingchen shrugged his shoulders： “Then I’ll go back and inform my father to let the people in the clan pack up quickly.”

As he spoke, he quickly left.

“Then we should also quickly pack up.” Yang Zhao stood up and instructed the Yang Family members in the main hall, “Just as the ninth brother said, keep everything simple. Don’t bring what doesn’t need to be brought.”

“Yes！” Everyone received the order and quickly dispersed.

Soon, there were only five people left in the main hall, namely Yang Kai, Li Rong, Han Fei, Qiu Yimeng, and Luo Xiaoman.

“Lord, we’ll wait for you outside.” Li Rong pursed her lips and smiled, and walked out with Han Fei arm in arm. With her eyesight, how could she not see that when this girl named Qiu Yimeng looked at the lord, her gaze was a bit off？

That kind of missing and infatuation simply couldn’t be hidden.

She deliberately stayed behind, obviously also wanting to be alone with Yang Kai for a while.

“Sister Qiu, I’m going out too.” Luo Xiaoman mumbled and followed behind Li Rong and Han Fei..

Inside the main hall, it was quiet and silent, and the atmosphere was a bit strange. Qiu Yimeng just looked at Yang Kai and didn’t say a word.

Yang Kai said awkwardly, “Looking at your attire and appearance, it seems that you haven’t married all this time. You’re not young either.”

“Waiting for you.” Qiu Yimeng raised her head, revealing her slender and fair neck.

“Don’t be kidding.” Yang Kai gave a dry laugh.

“Do I look like I’m kidding？” Qiu Yimeng snorted coldly, and then suddenly gritted her teeth and said, “I know there are other women in your heart. I don’t expect you to like me either. The gap between you and me is too big now. I still have some self-awareness！”

Yang Kai looked at her helplessly.

But since you rarely come back, I’m just saying it straight. You said before… that you won’t talk about love with me, but it’s okay to play!

Did I say such a beastly thing? Yang Kai was stunned.

“You said it！” Qiu Yimeng said indignantly, glaring at him with her red lips bitten： “You also know that this sentence is too beastly. I thought you didn’t know.”

“Uh… I was young and inexperienced, young and frivolous back then…”

“It doesn’t matter. Then let’s just play. I don’t expect forever. That’s too unrealistic. I don’t want to wait any longer and suffer every day. I just hope to have it once.”

“You can’t be serious…” Yang Kai was dumbfounded, secretly shocked by Qiu Yimeng’s bold words.

“I don’t care what you think of me. After this matter is settled and we arrive on the Tongxuan Continent and everything is stable, I’d let you know how amazing I am! With that, Qiu Yimeng’s delicate body swayed and she rushed up. Without caring whether Yang Kai was willing or not, she stood on tiptoe and pressed her red lips against his mouth.

Yang Kai let out a miserable cry and reached out to touch his lips, which were burning with pain.

Qiu Yimeng turned around gracefully and walked away. Her silver bell-like laughter drifted over： “This is just a little interest. When we get there, I’ll collect the principal and interest together.”

Yang Kai couldn’t help but let his mind wander.

After the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, Yang Kai walked out of the main hall with a serious expression on his face.

Li Rong and Han Fei, who were waiting outside, glanced at him and then quickly looked away, looking like they wanted to laugh but didn’t dare to. Their fragrant shoulders trembled, and they were extremely hard-pressed to hold it in.

“Laugh if you want. It’s just a bite from a woman.” Yang Kai touched his mouth, feeling very embarrassed.

“That girl is actually quite good.” Li Rong said seriously. “If she were born on the Tongxuan Continent, her cultivation level would definitely not be low by now.”

“Yes, this world has restricted their development！” Han Fei also expressed her agreement.

“So I want to take them away and let them see a broader world.” Yang Kai’s eyes were deep. “This world is too small. Although there are more dangers there, there are also better conditions.”

Both women nodded slightly.

A moment later, Yang Kai ordered： “You two stay in the Yang Family to guard this place for the time being, in case something unexpected happens.”

Li Rong was shocked： “Where is the master going？”

“I still have two places to go.”

“Then let me go with you or let Han Fei go with you.”

“No need. I can go alone. Don’t worry about safety. With the Flying Shuttle, no one can catch up with me. This world is not dangerous either.”

Li Rong thought about it and didn’t insist anymore. She just exhorted： “Then be careful on the way, master.”

“Tell my father and mother that I will have a lot of time to accompany them in the future.” As Yang Kai spoke, he sacrificed the Flying Shuttle. With a flash of green light, he was already hundreds of miles away.

Staring at the direction where he disappeared, Li Rong and Han Fei’s delicate bodies flickered and also disappeared in place, rushing to Fourth Master’s residence to accompany the two elders instead of Yang Kai.
