“A few days won’t be a problem,” Bai Ya smiled slightly before turning to the Void Gap and saying, “I’ve long heard that Brother Yang’s attainments in the Space Laws are extremely profound, and now that I’ve seen you, you really live up to your reputation…”
As he spoke, his expression suddenly became serious as he carefully identified the location, a look of shock appearing on his face as he asked, “If I remember correctly, the World Gate connecting this continent has long since disappeared. Could Brother Yang be able to find it?”
The Space Laws in this void gap were abnormally turbulent, as if it led to a mysterious place. Even if this Bai Ya was not proficient in the Space Laws, with his Half-Saint cultivation, he was still able to see some clues. In his heart, he thought to himself, No wonder the Saint Venerable thought so highly of this human and even asked him to personally welcome him. When he had received this mission, Bai Ya had been filled with disgust, thinking that he, a Half-Saint, was actually going to travel hundreds of millions of kilometers to welcome a human. Even if that human was extremely capable, the Saint Venerable was still thinking too highly of him. However, he had no choice but to follow Bei Limo’s orders.
Now, it seemed that this human really had some skill. If he really could rely on the Space Laws to find those missing continents, what did it matter if he suffered some grievances?
Hearing this, Yang Kai smiled and calmly replied, “For the time being, I can’t. I was only following the orders of the Saint Venerable to try it out. Although I have some clues, I am still unable to determine the Void coordinates of that continent.”
“Void coordinates?” Bo Ya asked suspiciously.
Yang Kai smiled and explained, “Although the continent has disappeared and was swallowed up by the void, it must have existed somewhere in the void. It’s just that it’s impossible for a human to reach it. If we can determine its location in the void, we’ll have a chance to find it. With the help of many Space Secret Techniques, we might be able to open up a new channel, and its location in the void is its Void Coordinates.”
Bai Ya nodded skeptically. Although he was a Half-Saint, he didn’t know much about Space Force, so he couldn’t tell if Yang Kai’s nonsense was true or false. Nodding lightly, he said, “Brother Yang is a great talent!”
If Yang Kai’s words just now had been perfunctory, then at this moment, his praise was filled with sincerity. Being able to find those missing continents was already shocking enough. If Yang Kai could really accomplish this, he would definitely be a hero of the entire Demon Territory. Perhaps… he would even be able to obtain that person’s approval. At that time, even if he was just a human, he would not be able to ignore him.
In his heart, he had already made up his mind that even if he couldn’t become friends with him, he couldn’t become enemies with him.
“Brother Bai Ya, if you have nothing else to do, why don’t you go to Cloud Shadow first and wait for me there for a few days? A few days later, I will return to Cloud Shadow and we can set out together.”
Bai Ya was slightly startled, but since Yang Kai had already said so, he naturally couldn’t thicken his skin and stay. Smiling, he nodded and said, “Very well, I’ll be waiting for Brother Yang.”
“Please!” Yang Kai stretched out his hand.
After watching Bai Ya leave, Yang Kai let out a sigh of relief. Just now, it had been quite dangerous. If that Bai Ya had been a bit suspicious and insisted on entering the Void Gap to investigate, his attempt to conceal his identity would have been exposed. Fortunately, this guy didn’t seem to want to offend him, allowing him to successfully pass.
However, this made Yang Kai realize a problem.
In Yu Rumeng’s territory, he could mobilize all the available resources to protect himself, but if he were to go to Bei Limo’s territory, he wouldn’t have any sense of security if he didn’t have his own people guarding him.
This was also the reason why he had suddenly thought of asking Bai Ya to wait for him at Cloud Shadow. He had to return to Cloud Shadow first and bring some people with him.
After waiting for a few days, Yang Kai waited for the Demon Territory’s World Laws to repair the void gap before returning to Cloud Shadow Continent.
Riding the Tiger Head Chariot, he passed through several World Gates before finally returning to Cloud Shadow City.
Without any delay, Yang Kai called out to the others and gave some instructions.
Bai Ya had been here for a few days now, so Lao Ke had to carefully receive him. When he saw Yang Kai return, he quickly came out to meet him. After chatting for a while, the faint urging in his voice made Yang Kai feel like laughing.
Fortunately, Yang Kai didn’t need to delay any further. Even if Bai Ya didn’t rush him, he will still go to Bei Li Mo’s territory. After a short while, Lao Ke whispered a few words to him before Yang Kai nodded and said, “Then let’s go.”
Walking out of the city palace, there were already several thousand Demon Race masters gathered outside, nearly fifty of them middle and low-grade Demon Kings, and the rest were all Demon Chief Commander, without a Demon Commander.
Bai Ya looked at Yang Kai curiously, not knowing what Yang Kai was trying to do. Why were there so many Demon Race cultivators gathered here at this time? Did he want to bring them to Proud Snow Continent? Yang Kai obviously saw through his doubts and smiled, “Brother Bai Ya, please don’t blame me. It’s not that this King doesn’t trust Saint Bei Limo, it’s just that I need some manpower to repair the World Gate. These people are used to cooperating with this King, so it’s easy to use them. If it were someone else, I’m afraid it would delay our progress, so I have to bring them along.”
Bai Ya’s expression became strange as he said, “Brother Yang can make the decision on this matter, I’m sure the Saint Venerable won’t refuse.” Saying that he didn’t believe Bei Li Mo was obviously a sign of distrust, but since he himself was going to Proud Snow Continent, was there any point in bringing these people with him? If the Saint really wanted to harm him, not to mention a few thousand people, even tens of millions wouldn’t be enough.
However, Bai Ya didn’t want to say anything about such a trivial matter, so he simply complied with Yang Kai’s intentions.
Yang Kai then turned to Lao Ke and Ke Sen and said, “During this King’s absence, all of you must take care of Cloud Shadow. If anyone dares to harm my Cloud Shadow, inform this King immediately!”
He wasn’t afraid of others, but he was afraid that Yue Sang would suddenly return from the Two World Battlefield. Although this possibility was small, he couldn’t afford to be careless.
Lao Ke and Ke Sen naturally agreed respectfully.
Yang Kai waved his hand and shouted, “Let’s go!”
Saying so, Yang Kai nodded lightly to Bai Ya, and the two of them flew out side by side, Yin and many other mid-grade and low-grade Demon Kings following close behind, followed by the Demon Chief Commander, forming a long line that attracted the attention of countless Demon Race masters in Cloud Shadow City.
After flying for a while, a Demon Chief Commander suddenly rushed over and stopped beside Yin, sending a few messages.
Yin nodded lightly and waved him away.
“What is it?” Yang Kai turned to look at her.
The voice said, “Great King, you’ll know once you look behind you.”
Yang Kai turned his head and saw that a dozen kilometers behind the group, a pure white light was slowly following behind them. Amidst this light, a graceful figure could be seen.
Seeing this scene, Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling a bit annoyed, wondering what was going on with this girl. Why was she following him? But no matter what, since she was following him, he couldn’t just ignore her, so he immediately stopped and said to Bai Ya, “Brother Bai Ya, please wait a moment, I’ll be right back.”
Bai Ya had obviously noticed the situation and smiled meaningfully, “There’s no rush, Brother Yang can do as he pleases.”
What are you rushing me for just now! Yang Kai cursed silently before flying back.
As soon as he stopped, the thousands of Demons also stopped in midair, and the people who were following behind him had no choice but to stop.
As he approached, Yang Kai stared at Li Shiqing and asked, “Why are you following me?”
Li Shiqing lowered her head and said, “I… I don’t want to be alone there.” No matter how bad Yang Kai’s attitude towards her was, he was still a Human Race, the only Human Race in the Demon Territory besides her. Compared to the Demon Race, she was naturally more willing to stay with Yang Kai.
Seeing her like this, Yang Kai was both amused and annoyed. After a moment of silence, he said, “Fine, since we’re already here, let’s go together.”
The main reason he had brought Xiao Wu here this time was because he was really worried about Bei Li Mo. With Xiao Wu by his side, even if there was any danger, Yu Rumeng could come here at any time.
In the past few days, Li Shiqing and Xiao Wu had occasionally interacted with each other. Although they weren’t very familiar with each other, at the very least, they weren’t strangers. After Xiao Wu left, Li Shiqing didn’t even have a single person to talk to in the entire Cloud Shadow City.
For someone with her personality, staying in Shadow Cloud City was undoubtedly a torture. Even if Lao Ke and the others didn’t dare to be rude to her, she would still be frightened.
Seemingly not having expected Yang Kai to agree so readily, Li Shiqing’s beautiful eyes couldn’t help flashing with joy as she stared at him with a trace of gratitude.
Yang Kai continued, “But you have to be obedient, otherwise don’t blame me for not showing mercy!” Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yang Kai put on a fierce look, scaring Li Shiqing so much that she nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice.
Yang Kai sighed in his heart and looked her up and down before asking, “If you use your strength so rashly, won’t it affect you?”
After all, this was the Demon Territory, and the Demonic Qi in the surrounding World Energy was constantly corroding her protective Emperor Qi. If she consumed too much of it, she would definitely be affected, and if she was really corroded by the Demonic Qi, it would not be a small problem.
Li Shiqing whispered, “I’ll be careful.”
Yang Kai nodded, “Do you still have any Source Crystals and pills?”
“Yes, you gave me a lot, but I only used a little.” Li Shiqing raised her head and mustered up her courage to smile at him, but her expression remained stiff.
“When you’re almost done, remember to look for me,” Yang Kai said before using his Emperor Qi to wrap her up and bring her along.
Li Shiqing was a little flattered, suddenly realizing that Yang Kai didn’t seem so fierce.
On the other side, Bai Ya saw Yang Kai return and smiled, showing a look of ‘Brother Yang’s luck with women is good’.
Yang Kai couldn’t be bothered with him and simply flew past him with Li Shiqing, bringing Xiao Wu along with him. On the other hand, Bo Ya was secretly gritting her teeth, her red lips moving a few times. Although she didn’t make any sound, it was obvious she was cursing.
With thousands of people marching, their speed naturally couldn’t be too fast. After a full day, they finally saw a World Gate in the distance.
A look of confusion appeared on Bai Ya's face as he chased after Yang Kai and asked, “Brother Yang, why are we going this way? This place should be quite far from Proud Snow Continent, we should pass through another World Gate.”
