The reason why Yang Kai had brought up this matter the moment they met was because he wanted to use Spirit Beast Island to inform Ghost Palace. Since he had encountered such a situation, he couldn’t save them, but at the very least he had to spread the news.
Moreover, that old man had almost killed Yang Xiao, so Yang Kai also wanted to know who he was.
Halfway through, Yang Kai asked the question in his heart. Li Wuyi pondered for a long time before slowly shaking his head, “I don’t have any impression of your description, but if I were to see that person with my own eyes, I might be able to recognize him. Although there are many Pseudo Emperors in this world, there aren’t much.”
Hearing this, Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful. He had thought that Li Wuyi would know the identity of this old man, but he hadn’t expected him to be unable to explain it. However, this wasn’t surprising, after all, he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, so who knew if this old man had changed his appearance?
Along the way, they soon arrived at a pavilion with a small bridge and flowing water. The scenery was quite unique. A burly man stood at the end of the bridge and tossed fish food into the water below, causing red carps to fight over it, splashing water everywhere.
From this man’s appearance alone, it was impossible to see anything out of the ordinary. In fact, he didn’t even have the bearing of a ruler. It was just that he had grown a bit taller and stronger, but anyone who knew him would know that he was one of the ten Great Emperors of the Star Boundary, Beast Military Great Emperor Mo Huang!
“You’re back?” Mo Huang looked up at Yang Kai and smiled, continuing to toss the fish food in his hand.
Yang Kai cupped his fists respectfully, “Yang Kai greets Sir!”
Mo Huang nodded lightly and asked, “Is Xiaoqi back?”
Yang Kai replied, “She’s back and is talking to Senior Jiu Feng.”
Mo Huang nodded and did not continue.
Li Wuyi took a step forward and said solemnly, “Sir, something has happened.”
Mo Huang looked up, his eyes narrowing slightly as he wiped the fish food in his hand clean before patting his hand and asking, “What happened?” For Li Wuyi to say such a thing, it meant that this matter was not small. Otherwise, Li Wuyi’s expression wouldn’t have been so serious. He had instinctively thought that something had happened on Dragon Island, perhaps it was related to Fu Xuan.
Li Wuyi said, “An unknown old man captured Yao Lin and slaughtered all of her guards.”
Hearing this, Mo Huang’s brow wrinkled, “Yao Lin? Yao Jun’s daughter?”
“Correct.”
Mo Huang asked curiously, “How did you know?”
Li Wuyi replied, “Yang Kai saw it on his way back. The Young Lady was also present at that time, and the one who attacked was a Pseudo Emperor.”
Mo Huang was even more surprised, “Pseudo Emperor!” Although Pseudo Emperor were not ordinary, which Pseudo Emperor would have the guts to touch the daughter of a Great Emperor? Since one could cultivate to the Pseudo Emperor Realm, there was no reason for them not to know the children of the Great Emperors. Even if they offended them, they would only punish them severely, slaughter their guards, and capture them. This was simply offending the Great Emperor.
“Are you certain?” Mo Huang asked with a frown.
Li Wuyi turned to look at Yang Kai and Yang Kai said seriously, “There’s no doubt about it, I can recognize Yao Lin. At that time, Xiaoqi also recognized her.”
Hearing Yang Kai call his precious daughter Xiaoqi so intimately, Mo Huang couldn’t help twitching his lips as he stared deeply at him with a meaningful expression.
Li Wuyi said, “Shouldn’t we inform Ghost Palace about this?”
Mo Huang nodded, “We should inform them. If there is a misunderstanding, it would be best, but if it is true, since we know, we should inform them.”
Saying so, Mo Huang suddenly reached out and took out a jade slip. Using his Divine Sense, he poured some kind of information into it and with a flick of his finger, the Space Laws in the jade slip suddenly disappeared.
Seeing this scene, Yang Kai immediately understood that Mo Huang and Yao Jun should also use Li Wuyi’s Space Beacon to establish a connection. Thinking about it, it wasn’t strange. They were both Great Emperors and were considered neighbors on the East Sea, so it was normal for them to have a connection.
Changing the topic, Mo Huang turned to Yang Kai and asked, “Is there anything unusual on Dragon Island?”
Hearing this, Yang Kai immediately understood and said, “Everything is normal. Third Elder didn’t receive any harsh treatment. This time, Xiaoqi went to see her and she was very happy.”
The expression on Mo Huang’s face became much gentler as a faint smile appeared on his face, “As long as she is happy.” He then asked, “Did they make things difficult for you this time?” If Fu Xuan and Zhu Qing shared the same fate, then Yang Kai and Mo Huang could be said to have shared the same fate, becoming husband and wife with a Dragoness and not being welcomed by Dragon Island.
Yang Kai rubbed his nose and said, “Not bad, at least the misunderstanding with Dragon Island has been resolved.”
Mo Huang was stunned, “Resolved? What do you mean?” Even though he was a Great Emperor, he couldn’t help being shocked when he heard this.
Yang Kai blinked and said, “Exactly what I said.”
Mo Huang looked at him with a complicated expression, “Don’t tell this king that Dragon Island is no longer hostile towards you.”
Yang Kai coughed lightly, “At first, it was a bit, but later… it was quite passionate.”
Passionate… Mo Huang’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, shocked to the core by Yang Kai while Li Wuyi also stared at Yang Kai in disbelief.
The word ‘passionate’ could be used to describe anything, but when placed together with the Dragon Race, it would seem somewhat incongruous.
How could the Dragon Race possibly be friendly to an outsider? As a Great Emperor, Mo Huang had been beaten and chased away by Dragon Island because he had a daughter with Fu Xuan. In fact, he had almost been hit on Spirit Beast Island. Although Yang Kai was a rising star, he was still just a rising star. In terms of cultivation and status, he was far inferior to Mo Huang. How could such a person receive such preferential treatment from Dragon Island?
How could Fu Zhun be so easy to talk to?
Yang Kai naturally saw the doubts in their hearts and scratched his face, “Xiaoqi knows the whole story. If Sir has time in the future, why don’t you ask her?” He didn’t want to explain in detail, otherwise, if Yang Xiao was involved, it wouldn’t be easy to explain.
At this moment, a burst of spatial fluctuations suddenly appeared.
All three of them noticed this and Mo Huang stretched out his hand and made a grabbing motion, a jade slip appearing in his palm. It was not the one he had taken out earlier, but another.
This was obviously a reply from the Ghost Great Emperor.
After a brief investigation, Mo Huang frowned and said, “That little girl Yao Lin might really have been captured.”
“What did that Senior say?” Li Wuyi asked.
Mo Huang crushed the jade slip in his hand and shook his head, “Yao Jun can’t contact Yao Lin or her guards.” If they couldn’t contact her, it meant they were doomed. Otherwise, it would be impossible for there to be no response. Combined with what Yang Kai had said before, Yao Lin's capture was certain.
“Do you have any urgent matters to attend to?” Mo Huang asked Yang Kai.
Yang Kai didn’t know why he was asking this, so he just shook his head and said, “Not for now, but the Eastern Region matters has been settled, so I’m preparing to return to the Northern Region.”
Mo Huang nodded, “Since there’s nothing urgent, there’s no need to rush off. Stay here for a few days and someone from Ghost Palace will come to ask you some questions.”
Yao Lin’s capture was a matter of great importance, and Yang Kai was a witness at the scene, so he naturally had to ask. Yang Kai could understand, so he immediately nodded and said, “Sure.” In any case, he had planned to stay on Spirit Beast Island for a few days, firstly to appreciate the scenery of Spirit Beast Island, and secondly, to arrange a Space Array here. This way, in the future, whether it was his relationship with Spirit Beast Island or the relationship between Spirit Beast Island and Dragon Island, it would be much more convenient.
After bidding farewell to Mo Huang, Li Wuyi led him to a small courtyard overlooking the sea. The courtyard was quite large and had a beautiful scenery, allowing them to enjoy the rising and falling tides.
The next day, Yang Kai visited Spirit Beast Island with Mo Xiaoqi. The entire Spirit Beast Island was a huge island protected by a great array. Outsiders wouldn’t be able to discover the existence of Spirit Beast Island, and only those who were familiar with its location would be able to find it.
The Spirit Qi on the island was rich, and the mountains were clear and the waters clear. From time to time, one could see many rare beasts, each of which exuded a terrifying aura.
Beast Military Great Emperor was a beast tamer, so there was naturally no lack of such things on the island. Spirit Beast Island also had its own Beast Seeking Envoys, and all year round they were searching for various rare and precious existences. Currently, there weren’t many living humans on Spirit Beast Island, but there were at least eight hundred Monster Beasts, all of them with extraordinary origins.
These Monster Beasts also understood human nature and were especially close to Mo Xiaoqi. What was rare was that Mo Xiaoqi actually gave each of them a name and even remembered them.
Yang Kai’s deepest impression of the many Monster Beasts on Spirit Beast Island was a Seven Colored Deer. Compared to the other Monster Beasts, it wasn’t very tall, only about three meters in height, but it was the descendant of the Ancient Holy Spirit Nine Colored Deer, an extremely magnificent creature.
There were quite a number of Monster Beasts with Holy Spirit Bloodlines on the island, but there were only a few of them. However, although their bloodlines had a chance of reviving their ancestors’ glory, if they really wanted to reproduce the Holy Spirit’s power, it would be harder than ascending to the heavens.
After a brief tour, Yang Kai couldn’t help sighing. On the surface, Spirit Beast Island only had a few masters, but in reality, these Monster Beasts were extremely powerful.
Two days later, under Li Wuyi’s lead, Yang Kai arrived at a suitable place to set up a Space Array.
Originally, Li Wuyi had wanted to set it up while Yang Kai supervise it, but if Li Wuyi were to set it up, he would be unable to establish a connection with the many Spirit Arrays Yang Kai had set up, thus losing his original purpose.
Helpless, Li Wuyi could only allow Yang Kai to observe carefully.
This was the second time he had observed it since the Heavenly Wolf Valley. Both of them were proficient in the Space Laws and had many similarities between Space Arrays and Space Beacon, so by the time Yang Kai finished setting up the Array, Li Wuyi had already mastered it. In the future, he would also be able to set up various Arrays throughout the Star Boundary like Yang Kai.
However, it was hard to say which Space Array or Space Beacon was more convenient. A Space Array could transport more people at once, but setting it up was a bit troublesome. Although a Space Beacon was convenient, it had a lot of limitations.
On the fifth day of Yang Kai’s stay on Spirit Beast Island, people from the Ghost Palace arrived.
