Kong Feng casually brushed it off, secretly cursing Luan Bai Feng’s insatiable greed. How could Yue He, a Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator, be captured so easily? It was true that he and Luan Bai Feng were both Sixth Order, so even if they joined forces, Yue He would definitely not be a match for them, but under the premise that their strength was not too far apart, defeating her was one thing, but capturing her alive was another.
If Yue He was determined to escape, it would be impossible for him to stop her, so he didn’t dare speak too confidently.
Ignoring Luan Bai Feng, Kong Feng waved his hand and ordered, “Follow the plan!”
“Yes!” On the deck of the ship, a man cupped his fists and shouted. Immediately after, hundreds of people split into more than a dozen teams and flew out from the ship, quickly surrounding the entire Void Land.
The leaders of these people were all Open Heaven Stage masters. After taking their positions, they all took out what looked like formation plate and tossed them into the air. The seals in their hands changed and a mysterious light shot out from their fingers. The formation plate quickly disappeared into the void and at the same time, the entire void began to condense.
This change was not obvious to anyone else, even Yue He, a Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator, could only faintly sense that there were some unusual changes in the surrounding space, but as for what they were, it was impossible to say.
Only Yang Kai could clearly feel what was happening and couldn’t help snorting coldly, “Old dog Kong Feng, your preparations are quite thorough.” Yang Kai naturally saw what the people who had rushed out from the deck were doing, so he didn’t understand what they were doing, but as the surrounding space changed, Yang Kai immediately noticed.
On the deck of the ship, Kong Feng looked towards Luan Bai Feng and nodded slightly, “Junior Sister Luan’s attainments in the Array Dao are truly amazing, Senior Brother admires her greatly!”
Luan Bai Feng giggled, “Life is forced, there’s no alternative. However, with my Great Array sealing off this place, even if that little brat possesses the Space Laws, he can forget about escaping.”
Kong Feng nodded slightly. He had investigated the situation of the Void Land before, so naturally he had inquired about Yang Kai’s background. He knew that this boy’s strength wasn’t high, but he was quite good at escaping, especially after listening to Old Hong's report. After learning that Yang Kai had once used the Space Laws to escape from the First Inn's Proprietress, Lan Youruo, he knew that if he wanted to capture Yang Kai this time, he would have to seal the heavens and seal the earth. Otherwise, if Yang Kai found an opportunity to escape, even a Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator like him wouldn’t be able to stop him.
As such, before they had even begun to move, they had already sealed off the surrounding space to prevent Yang Kai from using his Space Teleportation.
With the Heaven Sealing Earth Lock Formation created by Luan Bai Feng, Yang Kai could not escape!
Previously, he hadn’t made any arrangements because he wasn’t sure if Yang Kai was in the Void Land, but now that Yang Kai had appeared, he immediately gave the order.
Now that everything was ready, all he needed to do was strike like lightning!
Kong Feng turned his head to look in the direction of Old Hong and their eyes met. Old Hong understood immediately and shouted, “Little thief Yang Kai, you’ve finally appeared!”
Yang Kai glared at him, “Old dog barking at the potter, disturbing the peace, you’re courting death!”
Old Hong grinned maliciously, “You dare speak so arrogantly in the face of a great calamity? Truly ignorant!”
Yang Kai couldn’t be bothered to argue with him and simply turned to look at Kong Feng, his eyes spitting fire as he grit his teeth and asked, “Union Master Kong, may I ask why you captured my Void Land’s people? How has my Void Land offended you?”
Kong Feng smiled but didn’t say anything, acting as if he didn’t have the qualifications to speak to him. Old Hong took the opportunity to shout, “Do you need others to tell you what kind of wicked deeds you’ve committed in the Void Land? Junior, your death has come!”
Yang Kai glared at him angrily, “My Void Land is located in a remote corner of the world and has always been a law-abiding place. Everything I’ve done has always been done with a clear conscience. When have I ever done anything so immoral? Old dog, don’t speak nonsense.”
Old Hong sneered, “If you don’t see the coffin, you won’t shed tears. Boy, if you don’t want others to know, don’t do it. If you want to die, this King will let you die in peace.” Waving his hand, he said, “Please welcome Brother Qi!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a half-grown old man walked out from the crowd with a look of grief and indignation on his face. After standing still for a moment, he cupped his hands towards Old Hong with a desolate expression.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, someone quickly recognized this old man as Mountain Sea Pavilion’s Fourth Order Open Heaven Stage Qi Changying. Mountain Sea Pavilion only had two Fourth Order masters, and besides this Qi Changying, there was also the Mountain Sea Pavilion’s Pavilion Master. However, the Mountain Sea Pavilion’s Pavilion Master did not come out for many years, so all the major and minor affairs of Mountain Sea Pavilion were managed by Qi Changying, so he also knew many Second Class force's Open Heaven Stage masters.
Old Hong stretched out his hand and patted Qi Changying’s shoulder, putting on a look of sincerity as he said in a low voice, “Brother Qi, I know that your Mountain Sea Pavilion suffered a great loss a year ago and suffered heavy losses, and how could my Horizon, not suffer such a loss? However, this thief’s strength is too great, we can’t do anything to him, so the debts must be paid with someone life. Today, Heavenly Sword Union has come to uphold justice for us. Brother Qi, if you have any grievances, feel free to speak of them. Today, under the witness of many fellow Daoists, we must eradicate this cancerous tumor and restore peace to the 3000 Worlds!”
Old Hong's words immediately reminded Qi Changying of the tragedy that had occurred right in front of his eyes a year ago, and he couldn’t help feeling sorrowful. His eyes turning red, he bowed towards the Heaven Soaring Sword Union’s flying ship and said in a trembling voice, “Many thanks to Union Master Kong, many thanks to all of you. This old master doesn’t have any other requests today, I only wish to take revenge for this blood debt, even if I die, I have no regrets!”
Pausing for a moment, Qi Changying spoke sadly about what had happened a year ago, how Void Star City had sold a set of fifth grade resources, how they had sold everything they had to gather resources, how they had rushed all the way to the Void Territory, how they had been ambushed, how they had managed to survive…
Old Hong grit his teeth and said, “Brother Qi, you said you faked your death to escape and vaguely heard the words Void Land and Sir Yun?”
Qi Changying nodded slowly, “That’s right! This old master also knows that the one managing Void Star City is a man named Yun Xinghua. His cultivation is similar to this old master’s, and he can also match up to the person who killed my Mountain Sea Pavilion's disciples. As such, this old master lived an ignoble existence, and after his injuries healed, he snuck into Void Star City just to see Yun Xinghua, just to see if the Void Land had harmed the lives of my Mountain Sea Pavilion’s disciples. If this old master doesn’t take revenge, this old master will not be a human!”
Old Hong immediately asked, “What was the result?”
Qi Changying slowly shook his head, “That Yun Xinghua lives in seclusion, this old master has never seen him before.”
Old Hong raised his brow slightly, “If you see Yun Xinghua, will you be able to recognize him?”
Qi Changying clenched his teeth and said fiercely, “Even if he turn into ashes, this old master will still recognize him!”
Old Hong nodded, “Good, Brother Qi, look over there, Yun Xinghua is inside!”
Qi Changying’s expression froze for a moment before quickly turning to look in the direction of Old Hong. A moment later, his eyes widened and his killing intent surged as he flew towards the ship and shouted, “Yun Xinghua, hand over your life!”
Among the people who had been tied up, Yun Xinghua’s face turned pale with fright. It was embarrassing enough that he had been captured, but now that his life was no longer under his control, he couldn’t help feeling anxious. Fortunately, Lu Xue was in front of him, so he wasn’t too conspicuous. Now that this old man had suddenly rushed over to take his life, how could he care about anything else? With a pale face, he stepped back and shouted, “Senior, please spare my life!”
He simply didn’t know what was happening in front of him, nor did he recognize Qi Changying, let alone kill any of the Mountain Sea Pavilion’s disciples. Ever since he left his name on the Loyalty List and was sent to Void Star City by Yang Kai, he had been diligently managing the Star City, fearing that he would be punished by Yang Kai.
Originally, Star City was already flourishing, but half a month ago, a large group of people had suddenly attacked the Star City. The Void Land’s people had resisted and were captured one by one before being brought here.
Listening to everyone’s conversation, Yun Xinghua vaguely felt that someone was trying to deal with Void Land. He had only been caught in the crossfire of the city gate, so he still had a bit of hope in his heart, but he had never expected that he would be the first to die.
Qi Changying flew over, his killing intent surging, but how could he pay any attention to him? With a distance of more than a thousand feet between them, he sent a palm strike towards Yun Xinghua.
Yun Xinghua’s strength had been sealed and he was unable to resist. Seeing this palm strike land, he couldn’t help crying out in alarm, “My life is over!”
He could only close his eyes and wait for death!
But a moment later, the attack he had imagined did not arrive, as if someone had saved his life. Opening his eyes in a hurry, he saw Qi Changying let out a low cry and fall back to the ground.
Having narrowly escaped death, Yun Xinghua’s mood fluctuated greatly. From the corner of his eye, he saw the young girl sitting on the chair retract her jade hand. How could he not know that the one who had just saved him was this young girl!
He quickly shot a grateful glance towards the young girl. Although he didn’t know who this young girl was or why she wanted to save him, she was a true Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator.
Luan Bai Feng stretched out her hand and brushed her hair behind her ear before smiling at Yun Xinghua. Yun Xinghua was instantly overwhelmed by her favor and thanked her.
Luan Bai Feng chuckled lightly, “If you have something to say, just say it. What’s the point of using violence? Human lives… are very precious, don’t you agree, Union Master Kong?”
Kong Feng smiled faintly but didn’t say anything.
He naturally knew why Luan Bai Feng wanted to save him, because all of these captives belonged to her. If any of them died, it would be a loss to her, so she naturally wouldn’t allow anyone to touch her interests.
On the other side, Qi Changying’s attack had been blocked by someone, so after sensing Luan Bai Feng’s terrifying strength, he no longer dared to act rashly. Instead, he glared at Yun Xinghua as if he wanted to tear him apart.
Old Hong said in a low voice, “Brother Qi, calm down. Did you recognize the person who ambushed your Mountain Sea Pavilion?”
Qi Changying immediately pointed, “It’s this bastard who led his people to intercept and kill my Mountain Sea Pavilion’s ship. The hundred disciples of my Mountain Sea Pavilion… none of them survived, all of them died on the spot!”
Saying so, he threw his head back and let out a long howl as two streams of hot tears rolled down his cheeks.
