“Junior Sister Chen is a good girl, and her talent is also quite good,” Meng Hong looked in the direction Chen Yue had left, seemingly talking to himself but also to Yang Kai.
Yang Kai smiled and said, “If Brother Meng is interested, why not pursue it boldly?”
Meng Hong shook his head with a wry smile, “Although I’m interested, I’m afraid she doesn’t have such intentions.”
Yang Kai said seriously, “A sincere heart is capable of splitting metal. As long as Brother Meng shows his sincerity, how could Miss Chen not feel it?”
Meng Hong lowered his head and pondered for a moment before nodding, “Brother Yang is right, I was mistaken.” Changing the topic, he asked, “Is Brother Yang’s injury alright?”
Previously, Yang Kai had led them out of the Beast Tide and fought a fierce battle with Old Kang, so naturally they were not completely unharmed.
“It’s fine, it’s just some minor injuries.”
Yang Kai shook his head.
Meng Hong was extremely impressed, “Only today did I learn that Brother Yang was so amazing that he could even kill a Third Order Open Heaven Stage and Thunder Roar. This Meng was really a frog in a well before, I was simply too ignorant.” This time, he was truly shocked. He was also an Emperor Realm, but he had never thought that a cultivator at this level would be able to display such powerful combat strength. When he shot out his spear, the ancient remnant beast would explode into a bloody mist and the Third Order Open Heaven could not avoid it.
“I was just lucky,” Yang Kai said humbly, “Right, how are Old Fang and the others doing in Great Moon Province?”
Meng Hong smiled, “Junior Brother Fang, Junior Sister Die You, and the others are all doing well. Asun's cultivation is also on track now, and she has been personally taught by my Martial Aunt Tao. Everyone misses you quite a bit, they don’t know how you’re doing right now. When I came out this time, they all asked me to inquire about you, but unfortunately, I didn’t have time to carefully investigate before I entered this place. Fortunately, it was because of the Great Ruins Fog that I was able to meet Brother Yang so quickly.”
After hearing that Old Fang and the others were doing well, Yang Kai felt relieved. Old Fang and Die You was the first group of friends he had made in the Outer Universe, they had also taken care of him in the Seven Skillful Land. They had even escaped from the Seven Skillful Land with him and fought their way through all obstacles together.
He don't know when they will be able to see each other again, Yang Kai felt somewhat sad.
However, as long as they lived, they would still have a chance to meet in the future!
“Brother Yang, what do you plan on doing next?” Meng Hong asked solemnly.
In this group, Yue He was a Fifth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator, and Yang Kai had displayed extraordinary combat strength before, the remaining people were all Great Moon Province’s fellow disciples, as well as Chen Yue. There weren’t many of them, only six or seven, so it was difficult for them to achieve anything in the Great Ruins Boundary.
“What does Brother Meng think?” Even if Meng Hong didn’t ask, Yang Kai was also considering this question.
Meng Hong pondered for a moment before replying, “Self-preservation! First we need to protect ourselves, then think about other things!”
He continued, “This time, the Great Ruins Boundary is completely different from the past. In the past, even if there were people who managed to enter the Great Ruins Boundary, there wouldn’t be many of them, but this time, the entire Star City has been swallowed up and hundreds of thousands of people have fallen here. Anyone with a bit of brains should have gathered together for warmth, just like Ding Yi, raising a banner to summon all the heroes. Although Brother Yang is brave, he is still just one person. If he really gets into a conflict with others, he will always be the one to suffer.”
“On top of that, when we first arrived, we were attacked by a Beast Tide. Who knows if there are any other dangers in the Great Ruins Boundary? Over the years, there have been many masters who have fallen in the Great Ruins Boundary, so if we aren’t careful, I’m afraid we’ll end up dead.”
Yang Kai nodded slightly. Although Meng Hong’s idea was a bit conservative, it was in line with his intentions.
What he had seen and heard today had impacted him greatly, and he really needed some time to digest and absorb it, especially the activation of the Dao Seal’s power. He had experienced far too few battles in this Outer Universe, so he had not discovered the effects of the Yin-Yang + Five Elements before, nor had anyone told him about it.
Since he knew about it today, he naturally wanted to study it carefully.
“Sigh,” Meng Hong sighed, “Speaking of which, we were the ones who implicated Brother Yang. Otherwise, with Brother Yang’s strength, you would definitely have achieved great things in this Great Ruins Boundary.”
Yang Kai couldn’t help laughing, “Brother Meng is too serious. You also said just now that there are countless dangers in this Great Ruins Boundary. I’m just an Emperor Realm, what can I do?”
As the two of them were talking, Yang Kai suddenly looked up and frowned.
Soon, Meng Hong also sensed the situation and turned his attention towards the source of the sound. At the same time, he frowned and called out to his Junior Brothers nearby.
Chen Yue came over and asked, “Senior Brothers, what’s wrong?” Although she was also an Emperor Realm master, it was obvious that her Divine Sense was not as strong as Meng Hong’s, otherwise she would not have failed to notice.
Yue He sneered lightly from the side, “A large group of people are coming, they’re probably from Star City.”
When Chen Yue heard this, her expression changed slightly. This place was actually not very far from Star City and was only a thousand kilometers away, so it was natural for someone to come here.
Sure enough, after a short while, a dazzling light appeared in everyone’s field of vision, and a number of figures appeared before everyone’s eyes, flying straight towards the mountain valley.
The leader of this group had an imposing aura and was covered in blood. It was Ding Yi.
Behind him were at least a thousand cultivators.
Soon, numerous streaks of light descended into the mountain valley. Ding Yi glanced at Yang Kai from afar and grinned, “We meet again, it seems we’re destined to meet again.”
Although he was smiling, it was a fake smile, so Yang Kai naturally couldn’t be bothered.
Seeing Yang Kai’s attitude, Ding Yi couldn’t help snorting coldly, his eyes fixed on Yue He’s beautiful figure as he licked his lips and said, “Madam, what this Ding said before is still valid, would you like to consider it?”
Back in Star City, Ding Yi had declared that he wanted to take Yue He, Yue He naturally wouldn’t agree. At that time, she was alone and didn’t want to have any conflict with Ding Yi and the others, so she immediately fled, but unfortunately, she was chased back by the Beast Tide.
In the face of such a crisis, Ding Yi didn’t have any other thoughts and only wanted to survive. Now that he had broken out of the encirclement and gathered a large number of subordinates, his confidence skyrocketed and his dirty thoughts couldn’t help but surface again.
After all, it was a Fifth Order Open Heaven Stage, and he didn’t know if he would be able to reach the Fifth Order in this lifetime. If he could experience the taste of a Fifth Order Open Heaven Stage here, this trip to the Great Ruins Boundary would be worth it.
As soon as his voice fell, the group of minions around him began shouting.
“Hey woman, it’s your good fortune that my Emperor Heaven's Patriarch has taken a liking to you, why aren’t you obediently offering yourself up?”
“Submit to our Patriarch and we’ll guarantee your safety in the future, otherwise you won’t be able to move an inch in the Great Ruins Boundary!”
“That little girl is also not bad, does Patriarch want to accept her as well?”
“Hahaha! When Patriarch eats meat, we naturally have to drink some soup, how could that little girl enter the Patriarch's eyes?”
…
As the shouts rang out, Ding Yi’s face flushed red as he stood there with his hands behind his back, with a look of pride on his face. Today, he had led the Emperor Heaven's people out of the Beast Tide’s encirclement and led the charge. Everyone saw this and admired him greatly. This action of his could be considered to have won the hearts of these mobsters, allowing their morale to rise.
Ding Yi believed that as long as he was given a little more time, he would definitely be able to make the Emperor Heaven famous throughout the entire Great Ruins Boundary! At that time, he would become the ruler of the Great Ruins Boundary, life and death would be under his palm. This feeling of superiority was something he could never experience in the Three Thousand Worlds.
The special environment of the Great Ruins Boundary allowed the Emperor Realm to achieve great things. Ding Yi felt that this was a heaven-sent opportunity, a chance given to him by the will of the heavens.
Chen Yue’s face paled as she listened, never having imagined that she would suffer such an unexpected calamity. She couldn’t help leaning towards Yang Kai and Meng Hong, as if she wanted to find a greater sense of security.
However, Yue He just smiled, her pair of peach blossom eyes almost enchanting as she said with watery eyes, “Then you must ask my Young Master. If Young Master agrees, this servant will have no complaints about giving this servant to anyone, but if Young Master doesn’t agree, this servant will be Young Master’s…”
Saying so, she shamelessly grabbed Yang Kai’s arm and pressed against his elbow.
Yang Kai glanced over at her casually, and Yue He breathed out, “Young Master, I’ll listen to you.” With a look that seemed to be willing to let him do whatever he wanted, coupled with her charming temperament, many men who saw her couldn’t help breathing heavily, secretly jealous of Yang Kai’s good fortune. They didn’t know which force he came from, but he actually had such a maid servant.
Yang Kai smiled insincerely, “You really know how to attract hatred for me!” As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pinched Yue He’s tender face, leaving a red mark.
The corner of Yue He’s eyes twitched, but no one knew what she was thinking, but she did not dodge.
Seeing this, Meng Hong’s face turned red while Chen Yue’s mouth opened slightly, causing the Great Moon Province disciples to quickly look away.
These two people openly flirted with each other, causing Ding Yi’s face to turn blue. He had come with the might of Emperor Heaven's thousand men, he had expected Yue He to be unable to resist and would definitely be taken into his room to become his woman. But now that this happened, he suddenly felt humiliated.
He coldly shouted, “Boy, you’re courting death!”
“Big Boss, let me kill him!” Behind Ding Yi, a bald man stepped forward, his aura surging as he held a large saber in his hand. The blood on the blade had not yet dried, clearly he had killed many beasts.
Ding Yi’s face sank as he nodded, “Since this little brat doesn’t care about face, teach him a good lesson.”
The big man rubbed his bald head and grinned maliciously, “Don’t worry Big Boss, I’ll let him know the might of our Emperor Heaven.”
As he spoke, he pointed his saber forward and shouted, “Boy, come here and accept your death!”
Yang Kai raised his hand and said, “Wait.”
The bald man sneered, “If you have any last words, hurry up and say them, otherwise you won’t have a chance.”
Yang Kai chuckled and didn’t look at him, instead staring at Ding Yi and saying, “If you want it, I’ll give this slut to you. In any case, I don’t really want her.” Reaching out, he pushed Yue He, causing her to stumble.
Ding Yi was stunned for a moment before nodding in satisfaction, “Boy, at least you know your place!”
Yue He was even more stunned as she turned around and glared at Yang Kai, her beautiful eyes burning with anger as she trembled in anger.
