Chapter 986

Yue Xi of the Sword League is a middle-aged beautiful woman with a plump figure, a graceful waist, and long beautiful legs. The white dress fits her just right. On the high and bulging breasts, there is the unique sword-shaped mark of the Sword League. The delicate body exudes a mature and dignified temperament.

The He Zao and He Miao sisters led Yang Kai to her and called out respectfully.

Yue Xi’s face still looked a bit pale, and there was a lot of crimson on the white robe. Hearing this, she gently nodded her head, looked at Yang Kai who was following them with suspicion, and asked a little vigilantly： “Why did you bring a person from Purple Star here？”

She had never seen Yang Kai and naturally thought that Yang Kai was a martial artist from the Purple Star side.

“Master, he is not from Purple Star.” He Miao walked up and took Yue Xi’s arm, pointed at Yang Kai and introduced with a smile： “He is the one who gave me and sister those crystals and pills in the Chaotic Abyss. His name is Yang Kai.”

“It’s him？” Yue Xi’s beautiful eyebrows raised, seemingly a bit surprised.

When she found He Zao and He Miao in the Chaotic Abyss, she also heard the sisters talk about their experiences during that time. She knew that if it wasn’t for Yang Kai providing them with some restoration items, the two sisters would have already been unable to hold on.

However, she still had some doubts about Yang Kai’s origin.

A small martial artist at the First-Order Saint level, why would he run to the Chaotic Abyss for no reason？ Does he have such ability？

Thinking like this in her heart, Yue Xi’s expression remained unchanged, and she gently opened her vermilion lips and said, “Young man, thank you for taking care of my two apprentices before.”

“Senior is too kind.” Yang Kai nodded lightly. “It’s just a small effort.”

“Well, you provided some help to He Zao and He Miao before. In this case, I’ll give you one thousand Saint Crystals as a thank-you gift.” Yue Xi said this and gestured to the side. Immediately, a martial artist walked over, looked Yang Kai up and down, and said in a buzzing voice, “Friend, where is your Space Ring？”

Yang Kai was stunned. He shook his head and said, “I don’t have such a thing.”

That martial artist looked at Yue Xi with some difficulty. Since Yang Kai didn’t have a Space Ring, even if he wanted to hand over the one thousand Saint Crystals, he couldn’t do it.

Yue Xi frowned and ordered, “Give him your Space Ring. Anyway, it’s not a very precious thing.”

“Yes.” The martial artist nodded somewhat reluctantly. The light on the ring in his hand flickered continuously as he took out the things belonging to himself from the Space Ring and handed them to his companion for safekeeping. After a while, he took off the Space Ring and handed it to Yang Kai, saying, “There are still a thousand Saint Crystals left in here. Count them.”

“I didn’t come here for a reward.” Yang Kai’s expression was strange.

He suddenly felt that this Yue Xi seemed to be in a hurry to get rid of him, as if she was afraid that he would continue to stay here.

He didn’t know why this was.

“Then what do you want？” Yue Xi’s beautiful eyebrows furrowed, and her expression was a little displeased.

The martial artist who reached out and handed over the Space Ring also curled his lip and said with a smile, “Friend, a thousand Saint Crystals are already a lot. I also gave a storage treasure. Shouldn’t you be satisfied？”

“I said, I’m not here for a reward.” Yang Kai also furrowed his brows. He suddenly realized that the other party seemed to think that he wanted to take advantage of the favor he had shown.

This made him very unhappy.

“Master, it’s like this.” He Zao walked up and said, “He was placed under a restriction by that Lu Guichen, and he can’t use his strength. So he wants to ask you to help him lift the restriction.

“Can’t use his strength？” Yue Xi looked at Yang Kai in surprise, and her spiritual sense swept over. After confirming it, she said, “Let me take a look.”

While speaking, she reached out and pointed at Yang Kai.

Yang Kai didn’t’t move. Although he was a little unhappy because of the other party’s misunderstanding, his restriction was lifted was the most important thing at this time.

So he cooperated obediently.

Yue Xi’s finger tapped on Yang Kai’s forehead, and a stream of energy like a trickling brook poured into Yang Kai’s body from that finger.

For some reason, Yang Kai suddenly had a wonderful feeling. The position where the energy passed became extremely comfortable, and the whole person’s spirit also relaxed involuntarily.

The next moment, Yang Kai’s face changed, as if struck by lightning. His body trembled slightly and he took a few steps back suddenly. He avoided Yue Xi’s finger and looked at her with a gloomy gaze.

This woman… just now she actually quietly sandwiched a strand of spiritual thought in her own power and stabbed it into his sea of consciousness.

If it weren’t for his quick reaction and closing the sea of consciousness, Yang Kai estimated that the secrets in his sea of consciousness had already been exposed under her eyes.

In Yang Kai’s sea of consciousness, there is the Six-Colored Soul-Warming Lotus, the Fire of Consciousness, and the World-Destroying Demon Eye that has merged with him. No matter which one it is, he can perfectly hide it usually, but once someone peeks into his sea of consciousness, he can’t hide it anymore.

No matter what the purpose of this Yue Xi’s doing this is, it has already touched Yang Kai’s bottom line.

So he immediately avoided it.

A hint of surprise welled up on Yue Xi’s pretty face. She seemed to not expect that Yang Kai’s perception was so acute that he could detect the tricks she played.

“Yang Kai, what’s wrong with you？” He Miao was greatly shocked when she saw Yang Kai’s complexion was not right and quickly asked.

“It’s nothing. The senior’s cultivation base is too high. The power she injected into my body is a bit unbearable for me.” Yang Kai casually explained. He didn’t tell the truth because it wouldn’t do him any good.

Yue Xi was stunned for a moment and then smiled and said, “It’s my fault for being a bit heavy-handed and scaring you.”

“Master, has the restriction in his body been lifted? He Zao asked with concern.

Yue Xi shook her head and said bitterly, “If it were before, I could still untie it, but just now I was injured in my foundation by that old man. For the restriction in his body I’m temporarily powerless.”

He Zao and He Miao suddenly showed a disappointed look. When they looked at Yang Kai again, the two sisters both had an apologetic look.

It’s nothing. If it can’t be unlocked it doesn’t matter.” Yang Kai was not disappointed at all. He reached out and took the space ring from the warrior beside Yue Xi and clasped her hands, saying, “Anyway, thank you, senior, for your kindness and generous gift.

After that, he turned around and left.

“Yang Kai, don’t be in a hurry. Wait a few days for Master to recover and she will be able to help you.” He Miao shouted naively, but didn’t get any response. She couldn’t help but pout and said, “Why does he seem a bit angry?”

“This kid is very suspicious.” The martial artist beside Yue Xi stared at Yang Kai’s back. “According to what the two junior sisters said, he should be wandering in the Chaotic Abyss. How could he be with the people of Purple Star？ The fact that he can appear here clearly means that he was originally in the warship of Purple Star. Moreover, he is just a small Saint Stage 1 martial artist. Why did Lv Guichen go to great lengths to seal his strength？”

“What do you mean？” He Zao looked at that person.

The martial artist chuckled and said, “I just think that the two masters might have been deceived by him. Maybe he is originally from Purple Star, pretending to meet you by chance in the Chaotic Abyss, and then inquire from you. I remember you said that you met him twice, right?

“So what？” He Zao’s beautiful eyebrows were knitted into a line.

“It’s nothing. Don’t be angry, junior sister. I’m just giving you a reminder. You have been cultivating by the master’s side all the time and haven’t come out much. The outside world is very chaotic.” That person smiled and explained, as if he really just said it casually.

“Sister, could he really be from Purple Star？” Hearing what the senior brother said, He Miao also became a little suspicious.

“Not really.” He Zao slowly shook her head. She had met Yang Kai twice before and after, and he didn’t find out any important information from her and her sister. Moreover, when they met the second time, he also gave some spirit stones and spirit pills for free.

If he was really from Purple Star, there would be no need for him to do this. He only needed to reveal the information to Lu Guichen, and the two sisters wouldn’t have been able to wait for the arrival of their master.

So she didn’t believe that senior brother’s speculation.

“It’s always better to be careful.” Yue Xi spoke up.

“Master…” He Zao looked at Yue Xi with a strange expression, as if she wanted to say something but held back.

“What do you want to say？”

“Nothing, nothing. Master, you should rest first.” He Zao swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

She originally wanted to ask her master if she really couldn’t stop the restriction in Yang Kai’s body but she just couldn’t bring herself to ask this question.

Looking at Yang Kai’s lonely departing figure, He Zao felt a bit uneasy in her heart.

Strictly speaking, Yang Kai could be considered to have saved her and her younger sister’s lives. That was by no means something that could be offset by a spatial ring and a thousand Saint Crystals.

With a soft sigh, He Zao gave her younger sister a meaningful look, and the two quietly walked out.

After the two sisters left, Yue Xi, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground recovering, suddenly opened her eyes and ordered the warrior from before： “Wei Wu, pay attention to that young man’s movements. Don’t let He Zao and He Miao have too frequent contact with him. I think there’s something wrong with him.”

Wei Wu’s eyes lit up, and he quickly clasped his fists in response.

Yue Xi’s beautiful eyes were deep, and she murmured softly： “Why is it so strange？”

Just as a strand of spiritual awareness stabbed into Yang Kai’s sea of consciousness, she suddenly felt a sense of panic. Also, because Yang Kai closed his sea of consciousness in time, that feeling also flashed by, so Yue Xi didn’t notice it too carefully.

She didn’t know what kind of secret was hidden in that sea of consciousness.

However, after this incident, his background became even more thought-provoking. Yue Xi had to act cautiously to avoid her two apprentices being really deceived by someone.

She knew her apprentices’ personalities best. They were kind-hearted, didn’t cause trouble, and also knew how to repay kindness.

That young man had saved their lives. They would definitely think about repaying the kindness. If this matter wasn’t handled well, it would definitely be a trouble.

Yang Kai distanced himself from the people of the Sword League and found a place to sit down alone.

He felt that it was better for him not to approach that Yue Xi. This beautiful woman obviously had doubts about his sea of consciousness, and her attitude towards him wasn’t originally very good.

The people of Purple Star didn’t dare to cause trouble now. Yang Kai estimated that he was safe for a short time.

Once his body and mind relaxed, he finally felt the richness of the spiritual energy on this continent. He couldn’t use the power in his body or running his profound arts at the moment, but the heaven and earth spiritual energy still autonomously rushed into his body, Youdaoplaceholder0 his skin, and his flesh and blood, making him feel extremely comfortable.
