After washing up at Ling Yinqin’s place, he dressed himself up and meditated for the entire night. When dawn broke the next day, he walked out feeling refreshed.
Ling Yinqin and Lan He, who had been standing guard outside all night, were both shocked by this scene, shocked by Yang Kai’s powerful recovery ability. After the great battle between Yang Kai and Cang Mo yesterday, there was not a single part of his body that was intact, but after just one night, there were no visible signs of injury.
Such self-healing ability was simply unimaginable.
“Young Lord!” The coquettish old man also stood guard outside, and when he saw Yang Kai appear, a strange light flashed across his eyes as he respectfully greeted him.
Yang Kai glanced at him and chuckled.
After a night of rest, Yang Kai had come to understand many things. Although he still didn’t know the identity of this old man or which Holy Spirit he was, Yang Kai was certain that he had only one purpose in calling himself Young Lord, and that was to seek his protection!
Yesterday, he had also said that if Li Wuyi wanted to bring him back to Spirit Beast Island, he want Li Wuyi to ask him if he would agree.
This kind of thing… was it really his business? If Li Wuyi really wanted to bring him back to Spirit Beast Island, Yang Kai would absolutely agree. From his appearance alone, this old man wasn’t a good person. If he really stayed by Yang Kai’s side, Yang Kai didn’t know if he would do something outrageous and ruin his reputation. With the strength he had displayed before, Yang Kai didn’t have the ability to restrain him.
As such, although being called Young Lord sounded quite interesting by him, Yang Kai would never accept such a hot potato.
Not to mention that he didn’t have the ability to protect him, even if he did, there was no need for him to do so.
Yang Kai smiled meaningfully, but the old man didn’t seem to notice and simply asked, “What instructions does Young Lord have?”
“You flatter me!” Yang Kai waved his hand and turned to Lan He, “Where are the two Seniors now?”
Lan He said, “Last night, the two Seniors stayed in Heavenly Wolf Valley and are currently in the guest hall.”
“Take me there.”
Lan He nodded and immediately led Yang Kai to greet Li Wuyi and Jiu Feng, but Ling Yinqin did not follow. She did not know Li Wuyi and Jiu Feng, and the gap between their statuses was too great, so there was naturally no need for her to follow.
The two of them were not in the guest hall, but on a pavilion atop a mountain peak.
Lan He led Yang Kai around the pavilion for a long time before finally finding Li Wuyi and Jiu Feng, who were staring off into the distance. Lan He stopped in her tracks while Yang Kai flew forward, followed by the old man, acting like a loyal guard.
After landing, Yang Kai cupped his fists and said, “Junior Yang Kai greets the two Seniors.”
Li Wuyi’s brow rose as Jiu Feng smiled and asked, “Why did you call Big Brother and Big Sister yesterday, but now Senior?”
Yang Kai grinned and said, “Yesterday was yesterday, today is today. Yesterday, the two Seniors deliberately allowed this little brat to climb up the social ladder and elevate this little brat’s status so that this little brat’s powerful enemy would back down. Yang Kai is well aware of this, but now that the enemy has go away, he naturally can’t do this anymore.” Pausing for a moment, he continued, “Moreover, that little girl and I address each other as brother and sister, while she call you uncle and aunt. If I were to speak to the two Seniors in the same generation, wouldn’t it be a complete mess? How should I address her in the future?”
“You know too much,” Jiu Feng glared at him.
Li Wuyi replied, “It’s just a greeting, no need to worry about such trivial matters. Right, didn’t you go to the Lower Planes Star Field? When did you return?”
“I just came back.”
Li Wuyi’s expression became solemn, “Did you find Wu Kuang?”
As soon as Wu Kuang’s name came out, the arrogant old man who had been standing next to him all this time couldn’t help raising his brow and feeling somewhat frightened. Although he and Wu Kuang weren’t from the same generation, this didn’t stop him from knowing how terrifying Wu Kuang was.
Yang Kai sighed, “I did, but there’s nothing I can do about it.”
He had been in a hurry to return to the Lower Planes Star Field because he was afraid Wu Kuang would go to Heng Luo Star Field to commit crimes. Now that the Star Field Origin had been refined by him, Wu Kuang didn’t have the opportunity to do so, because even he would be suppressed by the World Law in the Lower Planes Star Field, unless he first refined the Star Field Origin.
Pondering for a moment, he said, “Moreover, Wu Kuang’s current situation is somewhat special. Even if I really have the ability to deal with him, I don’t know how to deal with him.”
Li Wuyi obviously understood what he was worried about and nodded, “It is indeed a bit difficult.”
Dual Souls shared the same body. If it wasn’t an ordinary person, it wouldn’t be a big deal, but the key was Hongchen Great Emperor’s physical body. If there really was a chance, Yang Kai couldn’t just kill Hongchen Great Emperor and Wu Kuang together, right? Yang Kai thought about it for a long time. If he wanted to resolve this matter, he would have to rely on Hongchen Great Emperor himself. Unless he first expelled Wu Kuang’s Soul, no one in this world would be able to deal with him.
If this matter was really traced back to the source, the main culprit was still Yang Kai.
When the Star Fragments Sea opened that year, Hongchen Great Emperor had crippled his own cultivation and entered it in search of Wu Kuang’s Soul. Originally, he had wanted to take Wu Kuang down with him, but who would have thought that Yang Kai would also intrude and stir up trouble? After many twists and turns, the result of mutual destruction did not appear, but the Souls of the two Great Emperors had been entangled together until now.
Li Wuyi suddenly smiled, “Even if the sky collapses, there will be someone to hold it up. There’s no need to mention this matter.”
The Great Emperor’s matter was best left to those Great Emperors, so it was useless for them to overthink things.
Yang Kai deeply agreed and said, “I haven’t asked the two of you, after I left that day, did anything happen on Dragon Island?”
Jiu Feng grinned, “You want to ask about that Dragon Girl, right?”
Yang Kai coughed lightly, “Senior Jiu Feng, please enlighten me.”
Jiu Feng’s expression became gloomy as she said, “What kind of good ending can there be? The Dragon Clan’s pride is high, and what that Dragon Girl did was exactly what the Dragon Clan couldn’t tolerate. She was exiled to the Dragon Tomb and left to fend for herself.”
“They’re courting death!” Yang Kai flew into a rage, his killing intent surging like a tsunami, causing Jiu Feng’s eyes to widen as she stared at him. The coquettish old man also stared at Yang Kai in surprise. To be able to release such a murderous intent with such cultivation level, it was truly rare. And what the hell was that Dragon Girl? She was like his reverse scale.
Could it be that this guy had some kind of relationship with a Dragon Girl? This was quite interesting. No wonder he could transform into a dragon that was a hundred meter tall. It seemed he had obtained some kind of Dragon Vein inheritance from the Dragon Race. Tsk tsk, this opportunity was truly amazing.
Li Wuyi said with a headache, “Don’t listen to this crazy woman’s nonsense.”
“En?” Yang Kai was stunned for a moment before turning to look at Jiu Feng, only to see her staring at him with a meaningful smile.
He had been tricked!
Yang Kai couldn’t help rolling his eyes, “Senior Jiu Feng, do you know how mischievous you are?”
Jiu Feng also rolled her eyes, “None of your business!”
Yang Kai simply ignored her and turned to Li Wuyi, “Senior Li, did the Dragon Race do anything to Zhu Qing?”
Li Wuyi replied, “What else can they do? She was only punished to reflect on her mistakes on Dragon Island. After all, she is also an Elder of the Dragon Race.” Although he said so, Li Wuyi still felt that Zhu Qing being punished so lightly was because the Dragon Race was giving Yang Kai face.
Fu Xuan was also an Elder of the Dragon Race, but after the incident with Beast Military Great Emperor, she had been banished to the Dragon Tomb.
But… how could Yang Kai’s face be greater than Beast Military Great Emperor? What kind of logic was that?
“At least they know what’s good for them,” Yang Kai snorted. It wasn’t too much of a punishment to just remain behind closed doors. If Zhu Qing was really exiled to the Dragon Tomb, he might cause a big ruckus on Dragon Island again. Suddenly, he asked, “What about the Third Elder?”
The Dragon Race’s Third Elder, Fu Xuan, was Mo Xiaoqi’s mother and the wife of Beast Military Great Emperor. Speaking of which, they were also a pair of sweetheart. Beast Military Great Emperor controlled all the beasts in the Star Boundary, and no one dared to disobey his orders. Strictly speaking, the Dragon Race was also a type of Monster Beast, but its grade was a bit higher. Since Beast Military Great Emperor wanted to control all the beasts, he naturally wouldn’t give up on the Dragon Race. If he wanted to subdue a Dragon Race, since everyone was in the Eastern Region, he could naturally approach them.
After much planning and waiting, Beast Military Great Emperor had indeed managed to subdue a Dragon Clan, but it wasn’t just a simple surrender, it was a different method. The two of them had even given birth to a daughter.
Every time he thought of this, Yang Kai couldn’t help but admire Beast Military Great Emperor.
Logically speaking, the higher one’s cultivation was, the lower the possibility of them giving birth to a child. On the other hand, if the Human Race and the Dragon Race were to combine, the chances of them giving birth to a child would be even lower. It was almost impossible for the two to combine.
Even so, Mo Xiaoqi was still able to come into being. It had to be said that this was definitely an anomaly.
However, when Yang Kai had first met Mo Xiaoqi, he hadn’t discovered that she possessed the Dragon Clan’s bloodline. He didn’t know if it was because she didn’t possess it, or if it was because it had been sealed by Beast Military Great Emperor.
“Mistress…” Li Wuyi wanted to say something, but when he recalled the scene from that day, he simply smiled and said, “With Zhu Qing.”
After Yang Kai left that day, Dragon Island’s dragons were also exhausted. After all, they had just experienced an earth-shattering battle and Wu Kuang had taken the opportunity to kill a giant dragon. It could be said that the losses they had suffered were enormous. The number of Dragon Race members was extremely small, and there were often no new members born for hundreds or thousands of years. If any of them died, it would be a huge loss.
Beast Military Great Emperor wanted to take this opportunity to leave Dragon Island with Fu Xuan and return to Spirit Beast Island. As long as they could return to Spirit Beast Island, the Dragon Race wouldn’t be able to do anything to them.
However, the Second Elder, Fu Zhun, refused to comply. Yang Kai had experienced this woman’s temper before, and it was as if she had not been blessed in a few dozen lifetimes. With her standing at the side to stop him, Beast Military Great Emperor was naturally enraged, and if they didn’t agree, they would fight again.
In the end, it was Fu Xuan who volunteered to stay.
However, in order to compromise, Fu Zhun no longer mentioned banishing Fu Xuan into the Dragon Tomb. Now, the two Dragon Clan Elders had both committed the same mistake and were shut behind closed doors on Dragon Island.
