Like a bolt of lightning, the Spirit Mountain and River beneath Yang Kai’s feet rapidly receded, and the violent wind blowing towards him was incomparably strong. Such speed was something Yang Kai had never seen before.
At a certain moment, when Wind Chaser pushed his speed to the limit, he suddenly roared towards the sky, his voice filled with excitement.
The entire Hundred Spirit Continent was huge, at least on the map, but in the face of Wind Chaser's extreme speed, this continent didn’t seem so big.
After circling around a certain area for half a day, Wind Chaser's speed gradually decreased and he fell into a mountain valley. After half a day of running, he didn’t show any signs of fatigue and instead seemed to be just warming up.
The mountain valley was filled with verdant vegetation, exotic flowers, and exotic plants. A hazy halo enveloped this place, making it look like a beautiful paradise.
Hei Lian was already waiting here, as if she had already known that Wind Chaser would come here. Their eyes met and a helpless look appeared on her face. She really couldn’t catch up to him and could only wait here.
Yang Kai rolled over and patted Wind Chaser's back, causing the latter to tilt his head and rub against him.
“How is it?” Hei Lian walked over and asked with a smile.
Yang Kai nodded lightly, “It live up to the reputation!” In his heart, he thought that if he could kidnap Wind Chaser, it would be great. This guy’s appearance as a mount was indeed quite good, and his speed was also quite fast. Whether it was traveling or fighting, he would be of great help.
However, this thought was only in his mind. Even though Wind Chaser was somewhat close to him because of his Dragon Clan bloodline, Yang Kai estimated that it would be impossible for him to abduct it. At the very least, he would not be able to pass through Chang Tian.
Looking around, Yang Kai asked suspiciously, “What is this place?”
In fact, what he found strange was why Hei Lian had come here in advance.
Hei Lian said, “This is Wind Chaser's territory.”
‘I see.’
As they were talking, Wind Chaser suddenly neighed and in the next moment, a group of Demonic Flame Horses ran over from all directions. All of them had delicate features and soft fur, but their bodies were generally smaller than Wind Chaser's. When they arrived, they gathered around Wind Chaser and began rubbing their heads together.
Yang Kai took a closer look and found that these Demon Flame Horses should be Wind Chaser's companions, so he couldn’t help but laugh. This guy was living quite comfortably.
After a while, under Wind Chaser's gaze, Yang Kai and Hei Lian flew out again. There was nothing he could do about it, he had not seen anything riding on Wind Chaser's back just now, so he could only let Hei Lian lead him around.
There were a total of four World Gates in the Hundred Spirit Continent. Yang Kai had thought that Chang Tian had brought him here to use his Space Laws to repair these World Gates, but after some investigation, he found that none of these World Gates were problematic and could be said to be extremely stable. This made Yang Kai somewhat confused. Since there was no problem with the World Gates, why would Chang Tian send three Half-Saints to kidnap him here?
However, through his probing, he discovered that Hei Lian had no intention of stopping him from leaving the Hundred Spirit Continent. When he approached the World Gate, he could take this opportunity to escape. Once he left the World Gate, he would be randomly teleported to a nearby continent. At that time, even if Hei Lian chased after him, she wouldn’t be able to catch him.
From this, it could be seen that the Hundred Spirit Continent really didn’t have any malicious intentions towards him. Perhaps it was just that after Yang Kai’s Dragon Clan Origin Energy was exposed, Chang Tian had changed his mind.
“What does Senior Chang Tian want me to do?” On the way back, Yang Kai asked.
Hei Lian smiled slightly, “Since Sir didn’t tell you, I won’t say anything. If you really want to know, you can ask him directly. If Sir is willing, he will naturally tell you the whole story.”
Yang Kai couldn’t help rolling his eyes.
Returning to the mountain where the Lian Sisters lived, Bai Lian was waiting in front of the palace. Seeing her sister and Yang Kai appear, she called out, “Yu Rumeng is here!”
Hei Lian turned to look at Yang Kai and smiled, “Seems like you’re quite important.”
It had only been a few days since they brought Yang Kai back, but Yu Rumeng had already rushed over. This meant that when they returned, Yu Rumeng had already left the Phantom Continent, otherwise it would have been impossible for her to reach the Hundred Spirit Continent so quickly. Yang Kai's Importance was obvious to this Demon Saint.
“Where is she?” Yang Kai asked Bai Lian.
“She is currently talking to Sir, but Sir said that if you return, immediately send a message.”
Yang Kai nodded, indicating that he had no objections, and Bai Lian immediately sent out a message.
Not long after, a dazzling light shot over from the distance and when it arrived, it revealed itself. Who else could it be but Yu Rumeng?
At this moment, she had a nervous look on her face as she looked Yang Kai up and down before asking, “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine,” Yang Kai smiled, his mood somewhat complicated as he listened to Bei Limo and the Bright Moon Great Emperor’s words. Bei Limo’s words could be ignored, but the words of the Bright Moon Great Emperor forced him to be careful.
Yu Rumeng’s nervousness and concern were not fake. The suppression of the Heart Seal Secret Technique allowed her to become one with him. To her, he was the most important person in her life, and anyone who tried to harm him was her enemy.
Was this woman really hiding something from him? Was she really able to undo the binding of the Heart Seal Secret Technique at such a critical moment? Yang Kai didn’t know. Perhaps only at that time would the truth be revealed.
Now, he couldn’t help rejoicing at the strength of the Soul Warming Lotus. If it weren’t for this World Treasure, he definitely wouldn’t have been able to escape the influence of the Heart Seal Secret Technique on him, perhaps he would have already committed an irreversible mistake.
“It’s good that you’re fine,” Yu Rumeng lightly snorted, her cold eyes sweeping over the Lian Sisters, causing the two sisters to involuntarily feel anxious.
If Yu Rumeng really wanted to attack them here, there was no way they could resist. After all, they had also participated in the kidnapping of Yang Kai, so it was reasonable for Yu Rumeng to seek them out for revenge.
Fortunately, Yu Rumeng didn’t seem to have any intention of attacking, perhaps because she was cautious of Chang Tian.
At this moment, Chang Tian’s figure appeared and fell to the side.
The Lian Sisters finally breathed a sigh of relief. With Chang Tian here, even if Yu Rumeng was indignant, it was impossible for her to really attack, so they had managed to avoid this disaster.
“I told you I didn’t do anything to him, but you just wouldn’t believe me,” Chang Tian said with his hands behind his back, a faint smile on his face.
Yu Rumeng turned her head and asked, “What the hell are you doing? If you want to repair the World Gate, you only need to inform me. Do you think I’ll stop you?” This was also something she couldn’t understand. Yang Kai’s ability had spread throughout the Demon Territory, and all of the Demon Saints wanted to borrow his strength, so she didn’t try to stop them. These days, Yang Kai had already run into several Demon Saints territories, so who would have thought he would be kidnapped by the Hundred Spirit Continent’s people?
Although the relationship between the Hundred Spirit Continent and the Demon Territory wasn’t very good, some superficial things still had to be maintained. Not to mention, if there really was a problem with the World Gate of the Hundred Spirit Continent, even if Chang Tian didn’t repair it himself, the other Demon Saints would ask Yang Kai to help repair it. After all, if the Hundred Spirit Continent was lost, where would the Demon Territory find so many mounts with excellent bloodlines?
Chang Tian smiled lightly, “The matter of the World Gate is just a small matter, I am only interested in this little brat.”
“I’m warning you, don’t try anything funny with him, otherwise don’t blame me for being impolite to you,” Yu Rumeng stared at Chang Tian vigilantly.
Chang Tian couldn’t help laughing as he shook his head, “Don’t misunderstand, I didn’t want to do anything to him, I just heard he has the Dragon Clan’s bloodline, so I brought him here to take him as my foster son. Ask him, have I restricted his freedom these past few days?”
Hearing this, Yang Kai’s expression changed. Although Chang Tian’s words weren’t wrong, the order of cause and effect had been reversed. It was clear that he had only discovered that he possessed the Dragon Clan’s bloodline after Yang Kai had arrived, and it wasn’t something he had heard before. In other words, he must have had some other purpose in the beginning, but Yang Kai couldn’t figure out what his original purpose was.
“Adoptive son?” On the other side, Yu Rumeng’s face turned black.
She was a Demon Saint, and although Chang Tian was not one of the twelve Demon Saints, his status and cultivation were equal to Yu Rumeng’s. In other words, the two of them were on the same level, and Yang Kai was her man. If Chang Tian really accepted Yang Kai as his adopted son, wouldn’t Yu Rumeng be a generation younger for no reason? So she said with a pale face, “You’re delusional!”
Turning to Yang Kai, she asked, “You didn’t agree to him, right?”
Yang Kai shook his head and whispered, “I didn’t ask you, how could I have agreed?” In his heart, he was secretly happy. Originally, he had been considering how to refuse Chang Tian’s previous proposal, but now he had the best excuse. Yu Rumeng didn’t agree! This reason was simply impeccable. It was likely that Chang Tian would never mention about it again.
Pausing for a moment, he continued, “However, Senior really doesn’t have any malicious intentions towards me and has not restricted my freedom for the past few days.”
Hearing him say so, Yu Rumeng’s face relaxed slightly and she nodded lightly, “That’s for the best.”
Turning to look at Chang Tian, she said, “If you want to repair the World Gate, don’t waste time. You can do it now, and after you’re done, I’ll take him away from here.”
She was also worried about leaving Yang Kai here. Since she had come here personally, she naturally wanted to take him with her.
“There’s no rush,” Chang Tian smiled, “I have something else to discuss with you.”
Yu Rumeng frowned, “What is it?”
Chang Tian stared straight at her, not saying a word, but his Divine Sense was quietly surging.
Yu Rumeng first wore a look of vigilance before a look of shock appeared on her face. In the end, she also used her Divine Sense to communicate with Chang Tian.
After a long time, the two of them stopped talking and Yu Rumeng stood there motionless, lost in thought.
Yang Kai and the Lian Sisters were confused, not knowing what they were talking about, but Yang Kai had a feeling that the content of their conversation was definitely related to him.
