“Are you really not willing to go with me? I can accompany you for the rest of my life and never part,” Li Shiqing looked at him sincerely.
Yang Kai said impatiently, “I hate it when people try to beat around the bush with me. First tell me who you are, where you want me to go, what you want me to do there.”
Li Shiqing pondered for a moment before saying, “It’s not convenient for me to say too much for now. I can only tell you that in the near future, something big will happen, and you, who is proficient in the Space Laws, will play a big role. Otherwise, do you think I would come here personally? As for who I am… you’ll know in the future. My identity will definitely not disgrace you.”
Yang Kai sneered, “Saying this is the same as not saying it.” His eyes darted around as he said, “Rest for a while, we’ll go find them later.”
Saying so, he couldn’t be bothered with her and simply sat down.
With the Heart Seal Secret Technique, Yang Kai didn’t need to worry about Li Shiqing harming him. He had seen and touched her entire body, so if she had any malicious intentions, they would have been exposed long ago, so Yang Kai didn’t have to worry about her.
Seeing him sit down, Li Shiqing suddenly came over and asked, “What? You want to use my Secret Technique to investigate my identity?”
This woman was really smart! The corners of Yang Kai’s mouth twitched. Didn’t they say that big breasts were brainless…
He really did have such an idea, he couldn’t get any useful information from Li Shiqing, but today’s matter wasn’t completely undetectable, and the best opportunity to use it was the Heart Seal Secret Technique.
Yang Kai had clearly felt something in his Knowledge Sea, but he had not been able to discover it.
Now that he thought about it, that something should be the Heart Seal Secret Technique. As long as he could find the source of this Secret Technique and carefully identify it, he might be able to find some clues.
He opened his eyes and looked at her, “Are you going to stop me?”
Li Shiqing covered her mouth and giggled, “Why should I stop you? If you want to investigate, go ahead, but I have to remind you that this technique is ethereal and traceless. Anyone who is struck by it will never be able to dispel it. Not to mention that you are only a Second-Order Emperor Realm, even if a Great Emperor were to help you, it would be useless.”
Yang Kai curled his lips, “Bragging!”
Regardless of who this Li Shiqing in front of him was or where she came from, her cultivation was the same as his. Both of them were only Second-Order Emperor Realm, yet she dared to speak such big words. Yang Kai really wanted to spit on her face.
Li Shiqing smiled and said, “Then work hard, Big Sister will wait for you.”
Yang Kai snorted, “Speak properly.”
Li Shiqing didn’t say anything else while Yang Kai also closed his eyes and focused, condensing his Soul Avatar in his Knowledge Sea and carefully searching.
After an incense stick of time, Yang Kai opened his eyes with a gloomy expression.
Li Shiqing immediately asked, “How is it?”
Yang Kai glared at her and said, “Don’t be so smug, I don’t have the time to search for it right now. I’ll teach you a lesson later.”
“Then I’ll have to look forward to it,” Li Shiqing smiled and asked, “Where are we going now?”
Yang Kai really wanted to tell her that she should go her own way and he should go his own way, but when the words reached his mouth, he couldn’t bring himself to say them, so he could only say sullenly, “Go back and find them.” Suddenly, he warned her, “If you dare attack them, I won’t spare you.”
Li Shiqing said, “Don’t worry, my goal for this trip has been achieved. From now on, I just need to stay by your side.”
Yang Kai frowned, “You’re not going back to the Myriad Flower Valley?”
Li Shiqing smiled, “I’m not Li Shiqing, why should I return to the Myriad Flower Valley?”
“How should we explain this to Flower Shadow Great Emperor? If she decides to pursue this matter, your identity will definitely be exposed.”
Li Shiqing blinked, “Are you worried about me?”
“Don’t flatter yourself, I’m just worried that I’ll be implicated. Speaking of which, even if Flower Shadow Great Emperor doesn’t pursue this matter, I’ll have to inform her.”
Li Shiqing didn’t comment, “As long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters.” Seeing that she was certain he wouldn’t divulge any secrets, Yang Kai gnashed his teeth in anger and said unhappily, “Let’s not talk about anything else for now, at least tell me your name, right?”
Li Shiqing was silent for a moment before smiling, “Rumeng, Yu Rumeng!”
Yang Kai nodded slightly and didn’t say anything more, leading the way back.
Yu Rumeng naturally followed closely behind, but after flying for a few kilometers, she suddenly heard a thunderous explosion from the sky.
A terrifying pressure descended from the sky, causing Yang Kai’s expression to change as he suddenly stopped and looked up towards the gray sky, his face filled with shock.
The thunderous sound wasn’t real, but rather that someone was fighting in the sky. What shocked Yang Kai was that this person’s cultivation had already reached the Great Emperor Realm. Just the shockwave alone was enough to cause the blood in his chest to boil, forcing him to circulate his Emperor Qi to protect his body.
There were actually Great Emperors fighting here? A battle couldn’t be a one-man show. In other words, there were two Great Emperors fighting in this strange place. Which two were they? Was the one who had taken advantage of the opening of the entrance to this place also involved?
“It’s starting!” Yu Rumeng’s soft voice suddenly rang out.
Yang Kai turned his head and saw her looking towards the sky with a solemn expression, her beautiful eyes filled with excitement and anticipation.
Seeing this, Yang Kai was slightly stunned, because he discovered that Yu Rumeng had not activated her Emperor Qi to protect herself, causing Yang Kai to doubt his own eyes. Everyone here was a Second-Order Emperor Realm, so how could Yu Rumeng be safe? How could she not be affected by the aftershocks of the battle?
Yang Kai didn’t believe that there was anyone in this world who was more powerful than him at the Second-Order Emperor Realm. If he were to use his full strength, he would be able to fight with a Pseudo Emperor, but Yu Rumeng’s current performance was better than his, which naturally surprised him.
After hesitating for a moment, he asked, “What started?”
Yu Rumeng shook her head and didn’t answer.
Another loud cracking sound rang out as a pitch-black crack suddenly appeared in the sky. It was incomparably huge, like the mouth of an invisible beast that wanted to swallow the entire world.
The space around him became turbulent as tiny cracks appeared and then disappeared.
This small world seemed to be unable to withstand the intense battle between the two Great Emperors! Such a phenomenon had appeared in such a short time, if this continued, this small world would be destroyed.
Thinking so, Yang Kai shouted, “Run!”
As he spoke, he hurriedly flew forward, glancing up at the sky before following.
A moment later, a few figures appeared in front of him, and as soon as they met, Yang Kai discovered that the people who had come to greet him were Lan Xun, Lin Yun’er, and the others.
“Is Senior Sister Li alright?” Lan Xun glanced at Yu Runeng who was following behind Yang Kai and asked.
“She's fine,” Yang Kai shook his head and didn’t explain what Yu Rumeng had done or how she had disappeared under everyone’s eyes. Speaking of which, he didn’t quite understand, “We can’t stay here for long, please follow me closely and find the exit as soon as possible.”
Lan Xun and the others all nodded solemnly. In this current situation, as long as one wasn’t blind, they would be able to tell that when immortals fought, mortals would suffer. If they didn’t want to be implicated, it was best to leave this place.
However, no one knew where the exit was, or whether this small world had an exit, so Yang Kai could only lead the group forward while secretly praying.
“Eh…” As they walked, Lin Yun’er suddenly exclaimed, “It’s Master’s aura.”
Yang Kai turned to look at her and pointed to the sky, “Is Senior Iron Blood over there?”
Lin Yun’er nodded, “En, that’s right, it is indeed Master’s aura.”
She was the only disciple of the Iron Blood Great Emperor and had been with him for so many years, so she naturally wouldn’t be mistaken.
“So Senior Iron Blood came here,” Gao Zhan suddenly understood, “No wonder his attacks are so powerful.”
Lan Xun asked, “Who was it that fought with Senior Iron Blood?”
Hearing this, everyone shook their heads. Although they could sense that this person was definitely another Great Emperor, none of them knew who he was.
At this moment, the gray world suddenly dimmed, as if all the light had been covered up, causing the world to fall into the deepest darkness. Even the Emperor Realm masters like them couldn’t see anything clearly. Not only were their vision blocked, even their Divine Senses seemed to have entered a dark space, making it impossible for them to perceive anything.
“Night Shadow Greaat Emperor!” Lan Xun exclaimed in shock.
Such an obvious sign immediately allowed her to lock onto the identity of the other Great Emperor who had fought the Iron Blood Great Emperor. Only that one could have such a miraculous ability. The Night Shadow Great Emperor was the master of darkness, so such a change was extremely obvious.
“Is it really him?” Yang Kai frowned. On the way here, he had heard Xiao Yuyang say that they had previously speculated that Lan Xun’s disappearance might have something to do with the Night Shadow Great Emperor, but that guess was only a guess. Now it seemed that this guess was probably true.
Gao Zhan couldn’t understand, “Strange, why did Senior Iron Blood fight with Senior Night Shadow?”
Their vision was unclear, and their Divine Sense was also blurry, so everyone could only stop and stare.
Yang Kai said solemnly, “Star Soul Palace is suspecting that your capture has something to do with Shadow Killer Palace. If that’s true, it wouldn’t be strange if the two of them fought.”
However, when two Great Emperors fought, how difficult would it be to determine the victor? Yang Kai didn’t know when this battle would end, but he was secretly anxious. In this situation, no one could advance or retreat, so could they just wait here? But if this world was destroyed by the two Great Emperors, it was likely that no one would have a good end. If they weren’t careful, they would be swallowed into the void.
Just as he was thinking about this, a bright light suddenly blossomed in the sky, dispersing the darkness that was blocking the light.
Everyone looked up and saw a round moon hanging high in the sky, emitting a gentle light.
“Father?” Lan Xun called out in surprise.
