Chapter 987

The inexplicable and strange Suspended Continent, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, beautiful scenery and rich spiritual energy.

Over the entire continent, a thick layer of mist is shrouded, which is condensed when the spiritual energy reaches a certain level of richness.

The clear spring flowing out from the nearby mountain peak is also sweet and clear, with great nourishing functions. It seems that the clear spring is not ordinary water, but spiritual liquid.

There are a total of almost a hundred warriors from the two forces of Zixing and Jianmeng who have been stranded here. After a great battle, the warriors on both sides have each found a position to meditate and recover.

Soon, they were surprised to find that on this suspended continent, their recovery speed was several times faster than usual, because the spiritual energy here was really too abundant. They were all extremely excited, thinking that there must be good fortune after a narrow escape, and they worked hard to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth beside them.

Only the colorful and strange sky makes people feel uneasy and palpitations.

There is colorful dense vapor flowing in the sky, and the sun, moon and stars cannot be seen, which is completely different from the places where these warriors used to live. This kind of scenery makes them a little at a loss.

One day later, most of the warriors have almost recovered. They also carried a lot of spiritual pills and medicines themselves. With the rich spiritual energy here, their minor injuries have basically healed.

Lv Guichen of Zixing suddenly came to the side of Jianmeng. In the eyes of a group of warriors of Jianmeng who were hostile and vigilant, he walked towards Yue Xi with a calm expression.

Sensing the footsteps, Yue Xi slowly opened her eyes and only spoke when he walked close： “What do you want？”

Lv Guichen gestured at the mountain peak not far away and said suggestively： “Aren’t you curious about what the senior’s identity is？”

“So what if I’m curious？” Yue Xi’s expression was indifferent and she didn’t show much interest.

But how could she not be curious？ During this day, she had been thinking hard, trying to figure out the old man’s identity, but couldn’t get any clues. She believed that Lv Guichen was also considering the same problem, and his coming to find her now was the best explanation.

“The pitch-black flag used by the senior should not be an unknown thing. But no matter how I think about it, in the past thousand years, there has been no strong person whose secret treasure is similar to that flag. Do you have any insights？”

“I don’t. I can’t recognize what that flag is either.” Yue Xi shook her head.

“Sure enough… How about you and I join hands to investigate？”

“Join hands with you？” Yue Xi curled her lip in disdain. “Wouldn’t that be seeking skin from a tiger？”

“Don’t say that.” Lv Guichen didn’t care at all. “Now both the people of your Sword Alliance and the people of my Purple Star have fallen into trouble here, and there is a senior with extremely high strength here. Logically speaking, we should also pay a visit.”

“Do you think he will see us？”

“I’m not sure, but it’s up to us to make things happen. At the very least, we should find out about his character. It won’t do any harm to your people in the Sword League.” Lu Guichen persuaded.

Yue Xi furrowed her brows and fell into thought.

She knew that what Lu Guichen said was right, but subconsciously, she still resisted teaming up with this enemy.

Under the current circumstances, she couldn’t refuse Lu Guichen’s proposal. After a long while, she gently nodded： “Alright, I’ll go with you to visit that senior.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t play any tricks this time. You also saw the strength of that senior. I won’t act recklessly.” Lu Guichen smiled bitterly. A master of that level was almost equivalent to a Star Lord. Lu Guichen calculated that even if ten of him were added together, he still wouldn’t be the opponent of that person.

Yue Xi gave a few instructions to the people of the Sword League, gracefully stood up, and walked towards the mountain where the old man lived with Lu Guichen.

After the two of them walked far away, the He Zao and He Miao sisters looked at each other and quietly moved closer to Yang Kai’s side.

What happened yesterday made them feel very sorry, so they had been thinking about expressing their apologies to Yang Kai and comforting him to wait for a few more days. When Yue Xi covered, she would help him lift the restriction in his body.

However, He Zao keenly perceived that her master didn’t trust Yang Kai very much, so she didn’t have much communication with Yang Kai in front of her, so as not to deepen her master’s misunderstanding of Yang Kai.

It was not until now that she finally found a suitable opportunity.

Just as they were about to set off, that martial artist named Wei Wu suddenly blocked their way and asked with a smile, “Where are the two junior sisters going？”

He Zao furrowed her brows and said, “Just taking a casual walk.”

Wei Wu smiled and volunteered, “Senior brother will accompany you.”

“No need！” He Zao’s expression was displeased as she resolutely refused.

Wei Wu shook his head and said, “Junior sister, just now master said that we should not act without permission because no one knows what kind of danger is hidden here. You two are the apples of master’s eye. If anything unexpected happens, who can afford to take the responsibility？ Let senior brother accompany you as a guard. If something really happens, senior brother can also delay for you for a while.”

He had a stern look as if he was willing to shed his blood and sacrifice his life for He Zao and He Miao with his head held high and his chest puffed out, pretending to be mature and reliable.

“Didn’t that senior say yesterday that there is no danger here at all？” He Miao blinked her big eyes.

“Who knows whether what that senior said is true or false? His strength is profound, and this place is probably not dangerous for him, but it’s different for us. It’s precisely because we don’t know the mystery here that master went to inquire about the news with that Lv Guichen.”

“Senior brother, tell me the truth. Does master have some doubts about Yang Kai’s origin and identity？” He Zao’s beautiful eyes looked at Wei Wu intently.

“Why did junior sister say that？” Wei Wu had a look of surprise on his face.

“That’s just the feeling. The feeling that Master gave me is that he doesn’t want us to have too much contact with Yang Kai. Moreover, when we brought Yang Kai here yesterday… Master seemed to have done something to him.” He Zao said straightforwardly, while recalling the frightened and angry look on Yang Kai’s face at that time.

If Master hadn’t secretly done something, he definitely wouldn’t have been angry.

Wei Wu chuckled： “Junior Sister is overthinking. What kind of person is Master? How could he care about such a small fry? Besides, everything Master does is for the good of us disciples. Let’s not talk too much nonsense. If the two junior sisters want to go for a walk, then let Senior Brother accompany you. I also want to go and take a look around.”

“No need. We don’t want to go anymore.” He Zao shook her head and then led He Miao back to their original position and sat down cross-legged.

Wei Wu pinched his nose, extremely helpless, and could only meditate to recover and pass the time.

The movement here didn’t escape Yang Kai’s spying. Although it is temporarily safe here, he is now alone, and it is always right to be careful.

Especially that bitch Bi Ya of Zi Xing is still eyeing him covetously. If it weren’t for the deterrence of that mysterious old man, she would probably have already attacked him.

So he has been paying attention to the movements of the two groups of martial artists. He saw Lv Guichen and Yue Xi leave together, and he also saw that the He Zao and He Miao sisters wanted to come to his side but were stopped by that male martial artist.

Although not very clear about the details, he also vaguely guessed some situations.

Suddenly, a strange sound came from not far away. Yang Kai turned his head and looked, his expression was startled, and then he stood up with a strange expression and approached there.

After a while, he came to the side of a bush and shouted in a low voice： “Shen Tu？”

Shen Tu’s head poked out from one side of the bush, quietly waved to Yang Kai, and then quickly retracted.

Yang Kai couldn’t help but smile dumbly, walked slowly to him, and frowned and said： “What are you doing？”

“Hiding from those people.” Shen Tu replied in a low voice, grinned and said： “Brother, it’s so good to see you. I thought we were both dead this time, but I didn’t expect us both to survive. We really have great fortune and great destiny.”

After saying a few words, he gasped heavily, and his face was pale.

Yang Kai then noticed that the injuries this guy suffered in yesterday’s disaster were much more serious than his own. There was a pool of dark red blood on his abdomen, his clothes were torn, and it was obvious that something had penetrated his body and then he pulled it out forcefully. There were also traces of rolled-up flesh on his square face, making him look extremely hideous.

“You’re a bit miserable！” Yang Kai crouched down.

Shen Tu’s face turned bitter, shouting： “Damn it, I didn’t feel anything originally, but after what you said, I suddenly feel that I’m a bit miserable. Why are you unscathed?”

“Just lucky. How did you end up like this？” Yang Kai shrugged his shoulders.

“How would I know? I passed out directly when the battleship was destroyed. When I woke up, I found myself here. Fortunately, the fragment of the battleship didn’t pierce my vital part. Otherwise, brother, you would have to collect my corpse.” Shen Tu chattered, grinning and baring his teeth, sweating coldly from the pain.

“Didn’t you take any pills？” Yang Kai asked in surprise. Looking at Shen Tu’s appearance, it seems that he hasn’t had a proper recovery.

“My things were long ago snatched away by those beasts of Purple Star. How could there be any pills left？ Even the secret treasures are gone. If I had a secret treasure, I wouldn’t have ended up like this.” Shen Tu was indignant. “Brother, do you have pills？”

Yang Kai nodded, pretending to take something from the space ring on his hand, but actually took out a holy pill for healing from the Demon God’s Secret Manual.

“Huh? A holy pill with pill patterns?” Shen Tu’s eyes lit up, shouting in a low voice as he took the holy pill. It seems that such a pill is also a good thing for him. Without the slightest hesitation, he took the holy pill and gasped for breath, saying： “Give me some time, and I should be able to recover.”

“Meditate, and I’ll keep watch for you.” Yang Kai volunteered.

Now that he and Shen Tu were on the same side, it was only natural for him to do a little favor for the other.

“Should we move further away?” Shen Tu looked into the distance with some concern. “What if we’re discovered by those from Purple Star or the Sword League?”

“Don’t worry, they don’t dare to act rashly now.”

“What do you mean？” Shen Tu was confused and suspicious.

He seemed completely unaware of the old man who had appeared yesterday. Presumably, when the old man showed up, he was still in a coma.

Yang Kai immediately recounted the incident of the old man briefly. Shen Tu’s expression changed continuously as he listened, and he shouted in a low voice, “So, that old fellow must have at least the cultivation of the Void Returning Stage？ No, no, maybe even higher.”

He mumbled to himself, and his expression became particularly interesting.
