A few days later, Yang Kai returned to Maplewoods City.
After entering the city gate, Yang Kai didn't have time to report to Kang Siran, and hurriedly returned to the cave mansion where he had rented.
Taking out the token, Yang Kai poured Source Strength into it, and shook it at the Cave Mansion Restriction.
But what made him extremely shocked was that the Cave Mansion restriction had not reacted at all, as if his token had no effect.
This made him frowned, but soon he remembered something.
When he came to Maplewoods City, the period of renting the Cave Mansion seemed to be one year, and counting the days, this period should have passed two months ago.
Once the time limit expires, the right to use the cave mansion will definitely be taken back.
Yang Kai heart suddenly thumped and realized that something was wrong.
It doesn't matter if the Cave Mansion's deadline has passed. The big deal is that he will go to the City Lord Mansion to register again, and rent one again, it's just a matter of spending Source Crystal.
He didn't store anything too expensive in the cave, so he didn't need to worry too much.
But...before he left, the little girl from the Zhang family was still in the cave mansion.
At that time, he and Kang Siran went to Yuan Cauldron Mountain to explore Gongsun Mu’s cave. He didn’t expect it would take such a long time. He thought it would not take long to return. Before leaving, he didn’t even talk to Zhang Ruoxi. He just told her that he will be going on a trip before leaving.
Now that the Cave Mansion rent has expired and the use authority has been withdrawn, what about Zhang Ruoxi?
Yang Kai looked around, but didn't see the delicate figure. Can't help but become anxious.
When he left, Zhang Ruoxi only had the cultivation level of the 1st-order Saint King Stage. In the Maplewoods City where dragons and snakes are mixed, she has no power to protect herself. In case of being targeted by someone with malicious intent, the consequences is unimaginable.
"Did she return to the Zhang Family's house by herself?" Yang Kai muttered to himself.
If he was in Zhang Ruoxi position, if the right to use the cave mansion was taken back and then driven out of the cave mansion, he would definitely go back to Zhang Family's house. If this is the case, there is nothing to worry about. After all, even if the Zhang family is not strong. But anyhow, there are also two Void King Realm.
Just when Yang Kai had no clue, a wave of restraint suddenly spread around him.
Yang Kai was taken aback, turned his head and looked around, and found that the door of the cave mansion had actually opened. A pretty face of a young woman poked out from inside. The young woman looked about thirty. A pair of beautiful eyes looked at Yang Kai with extreme vigilance, and said suspiciously: "Who are you?"
Yang Kai hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Yang Kai. Originally, I was the owner of this cave mansion."
The young woman frowned and said, "This cave mansion is now rented by me. When I came in, there was nothing left in it."
"I know, I'm not here to find something." Yang Kai smiled slightly, and tried to be kind.
"Not looking for something?" Seeing this, the young woman looked even more confused, "Then what are you doing?"
"Find someone, a girl." Yang Kai hurriedly said, "She was supposed to live here, but now she has disappeared. I wonder if the mistress has seen her."
Hearing that Yang Kai was looking for someone, the young woman frowned, her complexion changed slightly, and she shook her head quickly and said, "I haven't seen her."
While talking, she retracted her head and closed the door at the same time.
"Wait!" Seeing this, Yang Kai immediately understood that she must know something, how could he let her just withdraw like this, and when he stretched out his hand, he blocked the door.
The young woman's complexion changed sharply, and she said sharply: "What do you want to do, this is Maplewoods City!"
Yang Kai let out a cold snort, walked directly into the cave, closed the door, and stared at the young woman coldly. At the same time, a powerful aura erupted from the body and directly pressed towards the young woman.
"Principle Source Stage!" Perceiving the horror of this aura, the young woman's complexion changed drastically, and she lost her voice, her beautiful eyes looking at Yang Kai, finally changing their taste.
In Maplewoods City, the level of martial arts is generally not high, and there are not many Principle Source Stage experts, and each one has a great background, and it is definitely not something ordinary martial artists can provoke.
So when she noticed Yang Kai's cultivation realm, the young woman was a little flustered.
She is only a 1st-order Void King Realm, how can she resist the coercion of the strong Principle Source Stage? Although she was struggling to support herself, her body immediately softened, and she stretched out her hand to the wall next to her to support her body.
She bit her red lips and looked at Yang Kai pleadingly: "Little brother, you and I have no grievances in the past, and I have no enmity with you, and I have never offended you. Please don't embarrass me too much, little brother..."
"I'm not embarrassing you." Yang Kai said coldly, "I only ask a few questions, and you answer honestly. If you dare to deceive, I will make you beg for death! You should know that I have this ability!"
The young woman gritted her teeth and nodded gently.
"Very well, I ask you, have you seen that little girl?" Yang Kai stared at the other party eyes, not missing the slightest change in her expression.
The young woman groaned, and then nodded hard: "I don't know if that little girl is the person you are looking for, but I did meet a little girl, right at the door of the cave mansion..."
"Tell me, how old is she, what cultivation level, and what characteristics does she have." Yang Kai asked anxiously.
"At the age of 16 or 17, the cultivation level is 2nd-order Saint King, and about to break through to the 3rd-order Saint King. She looks a little weak and slender. She speaks softly, her hair is black and straight..."
"That's her." Yang Kai's eyes lit up and he was sure that the person the young woman saw was Zhang Ruoxi, but he didn't expect that in this short period of less than a year, Zhang Ruoxi's 1st-order Saint King Stage could grow to the 2nd-order Saint King Stage peak, and she was about to break through the 3rd-order.
It seems that the little girl's aptitude is not bad, of course, there must also be the credit of the Essence Developer Pill.
"You said you saw her at the entrance of the Cave Mansion? What is she doing at the entrance of the Cave Mansion?" Yang Kai frowned and asked again.
The young woman said: "Standing right at the door..."
"Standing?" Yang Kai was stunned.
"Yes, She just stood there. I rented this place two months ago. At that time, she was at the door of the Cave Mansion, but I didn't pay attention. Later, I found that she was standing there all the time and she didn't move. Out of curiosity, I asked her and she told me she was waiting for a Mr. Yang...little brother, are you that Mr. Yang?"
As the young woman asked, she looked up at Yang Kai timidly, and suddenly found that Yang Kai was actually that person.
Yang Kai's mind was fluctuating at this moment.
He can't help but imagine a scene in his mind. In the Maplewoods City where people come and go, a 16 or 17 years old girl stand quietly at the gate of this cave mansion. Despite the wind and sun, she still doesn't move. Sometimes looking around, but she never see the familiar figure...
In the noisy city, she was like an abandoned person, lonely, hesitant, and at a loss.
When the night fell and the cold wind hit, she could only curl up and tremble in place...
At dawn, she open her eyes and continue to wait.
Yang Kai's heart was inexplicably heavy.
"I think she is pitiful and invited her to come in and sit down. She didn't agree. She told me she would stand there and wait for... Mr. Yang. Little brother, I really didn't do anything to her. Don't embarrass me." The young woman looked at Yang Kai in horror, for fear that Yang Kai would vent his anger on her.
"You haven't done anything to her, so why didn't you tell me the truth in the first place? On the contrary, as soon as you heard I asked her whereabouts, you want to close the cave mansion immediately? You obviously have a guilty conscience?" Yang Kai looked at her coldly. With a thick murderous intent flashed deep in his eyes.
The young woman seemed to be aware of it, and waved her hand quickly: "No, it's not, it's not what you think...I really didn't hurt her."
"Let's say, where is she now? You seem like you know something." Yang Kai gave a cold voice.
The young woman shook her head.
Yang Kai chuckled, "It looks like you have some scruples!"
"Little brother, don't force me, let me go, as long as you don't force me, i will do anything you want." The young woman begged for forgiveness, her expression turned a little charming while she was talking.
Yang Kai's expression was indifferent and unmoved, a strange power suddenly lingered at his fingertips, his voice was deep and impatient: "Say it, or die!"
While speaking, he poked slowly towards the young woman's forehead.
Seeing Yang Kai's iron heart, the young woman finally panicked and said, "You go to Jiang family's house... Maybe you can find her there!"
"Jiang family?" Yang Kai's fingers stopped three inches away from the young woman's forehead, the lingering power of the fingertips suddenly dissipated, and he looked at the young woman thoughtfully: "No wonder you are so scrupulous, it turns out to be the Jiang family! But... What did the Jiang family take her away for?"
"I don't know!" The young woman shook her head. "A month ago, a few men came over and said something to her, and then she followed them. I was curious for a while and quietly followed and found that they were going to the Jiang Family house. I really don't know the rest, even if you kill me, it’s useless!"
"She took the initiative to follow them?" Yang Kai frowned.
"Yes!" The young woman nodded.
"Okay, thank you for telling me sincerely. I'm leaving." Yang Kai bowed and rushed out.
After Yang Kai left, the young woman fell to the ground like a puddle of mud, her clothes wet with sweat.
She has no Sect and background. She can cultivate to the 1st-order Void King Realm. It depends on her own efforts and various opportunities. She has never contacted the powerhouses in the Principle Source Stage. Today, she was threatened by Yang Kai's closely. She was scared to death.
Fortunately, Yang Kai was reasonable and didn't really do anything to her, otherwise she would be absolutely powerless to resist.
After a long time, the young woman regained her strength, and immediately got up, rushed into the cave mansion, and quickly picked up her things.
Not long after, the young woman walked out of the cave mansion, went straight to the outside of the city gate, and soon left Maplewoods City.
She didn’t dare to stay in Maplewoods City anymore. In case someone from the Jiang family came to track her down one day, she would be in serious trouble. As far as she knows, the Jiang family is not like that Mr. Yang who is so easy to talk to.
