“Don't you have anything else to do?”
A full month later, Luan Feng met Yang Kai in the guest hall and asked coldly, “I heard that you have High Heaven Palace in the Northern Domain. Why did you come to my Wild Ancient Land instead of guarding your own forces?”
Yang Kai grinned, “Everything is normal over there, it doesn’t matter if I’m there or not.”
Luan Feng asked, “What about the Southern Domain? The last time the Southern Domain was involved, it was obvious that a great deal of the Demon Race had appeared. Perhaps some kind of conspiracy is brewing, don’t you want to understand the whole story?”
Yang Kai slowly shook his head and said, “My foundation is in the North Region, and the matters of the Southern Region are just coincidences. No matter what kind of schemes they have up their sleeves, if the sky falls, there will be someone stronger to hold it up. I’m not in a hurry.”
Luan Feng stared at him angrily, “Speak, what do you want?”
“Drink some tea, drink some tea!” Yang Kai raised his teacup and gestured.
Luan Feng snorted, “Speak! I don’t have that much time to waste with you!”
Yang Kai took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and showed a troubled look, “Since Lady Feng insists, this Yang will not hide it.”
Luan Feng couldn’t help sneering. She really wanted to scold him for acting so shamelessly, but considering her status, she didn’t say anything. She had never seen such a shameless person, and she suspected that Yang Kai’s skin was thick enough to defend against her Divine Ability.
Yang Kai’s expression became solemn as he solemnly said, “This time, I have come to ask Lady Feng to grant me one request.”
“If you have something to say, say it quickly!” Luan Feng closed her eyes, preparing to wait for him to ask for an exorbitant price, afraid that she would not be able to resist spitting out a mouthful of World Annihilation Black Flame.
“Borrow someone!” Yang Kai spat out.
“Borrow someone? How many?” Luan Feng’s beautiful eyes narrowed.
Yang Kai said casually, “If iwant to borrow someone, its naturally to borrow the Monster King. I don’t want too much, just give me three more. Each of you three Holy Venerable will offer one, isn’t that good?”
“Haha…” Luan Feng laughed.
Yang Kai asked seriously, “Why is Madam laughing?”
Luan Feng said, “If I don’t laugh, I’m afraid I won’t be able to restrain myself from killing you.” Although her face was smiling, her tone was cold.
Yang Kai nodded.
* Peng… * Luan Feng smashed the table next to her into pieces, causing tea to fly everywhere as she gritted her teeth and said, “Yang Kai, don’t go too far! Do you really think you can do whatever you want in my Wild Ancient Land just because you have the backing of Heavenly Punishment's descendant?”
Yang Kai rubbed his nose and said, “I didn’t…”
“You dare say you don’t?” Luan Feng was furious, “If it weren’t for that, how could you not put this Queen in your eyes and my Wild Ancient Land in your eyes! The Wild Ancient Land has always been a forbidden zone for humans, yet you think you can come and go as you please? You even left a Space Array here. If you want to enter my Phoenix Gathering Palace, you will do so as you please. Do you even care about this Queen?”
Yang Kai lowered his eyes and allowed her to vent her anger for a while. After she calmed down, he smiled and said, “Madam is too serious, I really don’t mean that. I’m very respectful towards Madam.”
Luan Feng sneered, “Do you think I’ll believe you?”
Yang Kai said solemnly, “I’m telling the truth.” Saying so, he patted his chest as if he was touching his conscience.
Luan Feng’s chest heaved up and down as she desperately wanted to slap Yang Kai to death, but if she could really do so, she wouldn’t have been so angry. When she said that Yang Kai was relying on the support of the Heavenly Punishment's descendant, she was just speaking out of anger. In fact, she also knew that even if he didn’t have Heavenly Punishment's descendant, she wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.
The last time she had met with Ying Fei and the others, Luan Feng had heard some shocking news. Yang Kai actually had some relationship with a pure Dragon Girl, and it seemed he had gone to Dragon Island and returned unharmed.
She didn’t know what had happened on Dragon Island, but just this point alone was not enough to make anyone look down on her. Snorting coldly, she flicked her sleeve and said, “No matter how glib your tongue is, don’t think you can succeed here.”
Yang Kai said with a bitter expression, “Madam, you don’t have to be so decisive. I’m just borrowing three Monster Kings. There are still twenty-nine Monster Kings in this wild ancient land. If you give me three more, there will still be twenty-six more. It’s just a small matter to you, it won’t shake the foundation of your rule.”
Luan Feng laughed in anger, “You have the nerve to ask for three more? You already borrowed three from us last time, what do you think a Monster King is? My Wild Ancient Land is so big and only has a total of thirty-two Monster Kings. If you ask for three more, how many more will you ask in the future? No way!”
Yang Kai cupped his hands and said, “This is the last time, definitely the last. If I ever try to ask for more Monster King again, I’ll be a dog.”
Luan Feng glanced at him with a look of disbelief and suddenly asked, “This Queen is quite curious, what do you want the three Monster Kings for? Is it not enough to have Xi Lei and the others overseeing your High Heaven Palace?”
Yang Kai sighed, “Just High Heaven Palace alone is enough, but Madam also knows about what happened at the Plain Palace last time. This Yang has already taken the Plain Palace from the Southern Domain and is preparing to establish it as my High Heaven Palace Branch. En, so I still need other masters to oversee it and maintain stability. If not for that, I wouldn’t have bothered Madam.”
Luan Feng was shocked, “You also obtained the Plain Palace? The Star Soul Palace actually agreed?”
Yang Kai smiled and said, “It’s just an ownerless place, why would Star Soul Palace be reluctant to part with it?”
Luan Feng nodded and said, “Boy, your ambitions aren’t small. The north region is developing well, but you actually want to extend your hand to the south.”
Yang Kai said with a bitter expression, “I had no other choice.” This was the truth. High Heaven Palace had too many disciples, otherwise he wouldn’t have set his sights on the foundation of Plain Palace.
However, seeing that Luan Feng’s tone showed signs of loosening, Yang Kai quickly struck while the iron was hot and said, “This is how it is. Madam, please grant me my wish. I only need three Monster Kings.”
Luan Feng said lightly, “This Queen has said that you can forget about succeeding this time. Everything can be done one way or the other. For you, the Wild Ancient Land has already given way to you, so don’t push your luck.”
Feeling her determination, Yang Kai frowned, “Are you really not going to lend it to me?”
Luan Feng coldly replied, “There are some things I don’t want to say twice.”
Yang Kai nodded, “Since Madam says so, I won’t force you.”
Luan Feng was stunned, seemingly not having expected Yang Kai to surrender so easily, but before she could rejoice, Yang Kai asked, “By the way, Madam, may I ask who were the Monster Kings who pledged allegiance to the North Holy Venerable Stone Flame?”
“You’re asking about this…” Luan Feng suddenly realized something, her beautiful eyes narrowing as she clenched her teeth.
Yang Kai grinned, stretched out his hand, and released his Embodiment. The Embodiment also displayed a domineering and majestic appearance. Pointing at it, Yang Kai smiled at Luan Feng and said, “Although Shi Huo died back then, his successor is now here and intends to take over the North Wild Ancient Land. Madam, please inform Brother Fan Wu and Brother Cang Gou, as well as the Monster Kings and Monster Generals who originally belonged to the Northern Land to quickly report back.”
The Embodiment grinned at Luan Feng in a timely manner, causing Luan Feng’s face to darken as she grit her teeth and said, “So that’s what you’re planning.”
Yang Kai sighed, “I had no other choice, please forgive me.”
Luan Feng raised her chin and said, “So what if it is? Do you think that after refining the Stone Fire Origin, the Wild Ancient Land will have a place for it to stand? Yang Kai, don’t be so naive.” If they backed down this time, the Wild Ancient Land would no longer have the confidence and strength to resist Yang Kai in the future, because Yang Kai had repeatedly broken through the Wild Ancient Land’s defenses.
Yang Kai said lightly, “This King is extremely grateful to the Wild Ancient Land and the three Holy Venerable for the previous incident at Plain Palace and is willing to maintain a good relationship with the three Holy Venerable, but if Madam insists on obstructing me, then don’t blame this King for not thinking about our old friendship. As the saying goes, one must always strive for greater heights. I want to know if the twenty-nine Monster Kings will still be loyal to you after learning that the three Holy Venerable are obstructing their future.”
Luan Feng was furious and her beautiful face paled, “Do you have any conscience? You dare threaten me?”
Yang Kai said, “Madam, I only want three Monster Kings to oversee the Southern Domain, is that an excessive request?”
Luan Feng fell silent as her eyes wandered between Yang Kai and his Embodiment, her heart filled with bitterness, knowing that there was nothing she could do to stop him now. Yang Kai had first thrown out the successor of this Stone Flame, which would give him the right to occupy the northern Wild Ancient Land. When the time came to summon the Eight Monster King back, Luan Feng and the others would not be able to stop him. What’s more, to the Monster Kings, being able to serve Yang Kai was definitely a bright future. If the Holy Venerable insisted on stopping them, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction in their hearts and greatly harm the Wild Ancient Land.
Seeing the change in her expression, Yang Kai knew that he had basically achieved his objective for this trip, so he smiled and said, “Madam, there’s something I don’t know if I should say.”
Luan Feng angrily said, “You’ve always liked to go against this Queen. Is there anything you don’t dare say in front of this Queen?”
Yang Kai coughed lightly, “It seems Madam has a deep misunderstanding about this King. Very well, as time passes, one’s heart will be revealed, and one’s strength will be revealed. Let’s not talk about my personality for now, let’s just talk about Little Tian Long.”
Luan Feng’s expression suddenly became cold as a thick murderous intent filled the air, “If you dare try to have any ideas on Tian Long, this Queen will not rest until you die!”
Everything could be compromised, but when it came to her own daughter, it was the Luan Feng’s reverse scale. When Yang Kai mentioned Little Vermilion Phoenix's name at this time, it undoubtedly touched her sensitive nerves.
Yang Kai raised his hand and said, “Madam, I’m afraid you’ve misunderstood. I’m not trying to do anything to Tian Long, no matter how despicable and shameless I am, I won’t do anything to the child. I just feel that although she is the daughter of Madam, whether or not she can inherit Madam’s legacy in the future is still uncertain. Everyone says that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, but there are always exceptions, right?”
Luan Feng proudly said, “How could this Queen’s daughter be any worse?”
Yang Kai nodded, “Good, even if Little Tian Long can inherit everything from madam and bring Vermilion Phoenix's reputation to new heights, so what? Does Madam not want Little Tian Long to improve further than you?”
