Yang Kai looked at them seriously, trying his best to connect their appearances and names, but to no avail. Not only did these three burly men look exactly the same, even their expressions and tone were the same. Most importantly, their auras were exactly the same.
Even if their mother was here, it would be difficult to tell who they were.
Helplessly giving up, Yang Kai said, “Perhaps the three of you have some misunderstandings, this Yang has no ill intentions towards Matchless Society, nor does he intend to dominate Shadowless Cave Heaven as you three think.”
Shi Yue exclaimed, “Big Brother, he heard what we just said.”
Shi Qiu’s expression became fierce as he said, “The first to act will gain the upper hand, the last to act will suffer. Big Brother, let’s act.”
Shi Shan’s eyes were filled with anger, his nostrils flaring as he stared at Yang Kai with a fierce glare.
A dangerous aura spread out.
Yang Kai stepped back and raised his hand, “Please wait a moment, I have no intention of becoming enemies with the three of you, nor am I here to fight with you. I have only come here to tell you that I have found the exit of Shadowless Cave Heaven and will be leaving this place in a month’s time. If the three of you are interested, you can accompany me. If you are unwilling, I won’t force you!”
Facing these three, Yang Kai was also speechless. Before coming here, he had thought about all the scenarios he would encounter with the three leaders of Matchless Society, but he had never imagined such a scene.
“You found the exit?” Shi Shan was stunned for a moment before the fierce light in his eyes quickly dissipated.
“Yes,” Yang Kai nodded.
“You think you can find it just because you say so?” Shi Yue looked at Yang Kai with a look of distrust, “We’ve been searching here for thousands of years, but we still haven’t found it. How did you find that exit?”
“I have my own methods,” Yang Kai gently shook his head, “As for how to find it, I can’t tell you, but at that time, Zhou Ya was with me. If you don’t believe me, you can ask her.”
The three Shi Brothers immediately looked towards Zhou Ya.
Zhou Ya frowned, seemingly reluctant to speak to the three of them, but in the end, she nodded and said, “Sir Yang didn’t lie to you, he really did find the exit to Shadowless Cave Heaven. This time, he came here specifically to inform you about this matter.”
The three brothers’ doubts immediately disappeared as they smiled happily, “Did you really find the exit?”
Seeing this, Yang Kai was stunned. These three people’s brains really weren’t quite sharp enough to believe Zhou Ya’s words so easily, but this saved him a lot of effort.
The three of them couldn’t contain their joy, and even many Open Heaven Stage masters from Matchless Society were staring at Yang Kai with burning eyes. If they had a chance to leave Shadowless Cave Heaven, who would be willing to stay here? This damned place lacked cultivation resources, and there was no way they could leave here alone.
Many of them had been trapped here for thousands of years, and because of the Shadowless Astral Wind, Ma Tian Yuan had fallen from Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage to Fifth Order. It could be said that he was in a miserable state.
Yang Kai said, “The three chiefs should know that although we found the exit, if we want to leave, we may have to go through many twists and turns, or even encounter some unpredictable dangers.”
Shi Shan rubbed his bald head as he looked at Yang Kai and said, “You’re not related to us at all. Since you found the exit, you can leave on your own. Why did you come here to inform us? Could it be you have some kind of ulterior motive?”
Shi Qiu and Shi Yue both stared at Yang Kai vigilantly.
Yang Kai couldn’t help laughing, “Three strong men, what kind of intentions do I have for the three of you? Just as I said before, although the exit has been found, there may be some risks if I want to leave. The more people there are, the greater the strength. If the three of you can travel together, perhaps there will be a place we can rely on you.”
The three brothers suddenly understood.
“A month from now, I will set out and depart from this Shadowless Cave Heaven. If everyone wants to, you can go to Gemini Island to find me before then. During this time, I will stay on Gemini Island.” Finished speaking, Yang Kai cupped his fists towards the three of them before turning around and leaving with Zhou Ya.
The main reason he had come here this time was to inform these three Chiefs. Now that he had made things clear, there was naturally no need for him to stay any longer. These three fellows weren’t very intelligent, so talking too much would only make things worse.
The three Shi Brothers stared at Yang Kai’s disappearing figure in a daze.
Behind the three of them, many of the Open Heaven Stage also exchanged glances with one another.
At the same time, on Gemini Island, in a luxuriously decorated room, Hua Yong raised his glass and drank to his heart’s content. From behind him came the sound of soft footsteps, and soon after, a pair of tender hands gently kneaded his forehead.
Hua Yong closed his eyes and leaned his head against his wife’s belly, clearly feeling the movement through her belly. A faint fragrance lingered around his nose as his chaotic mind gradually calmed down.
“Old Master, is this a difficult decision?” Shu Mudan asked softly.
“Ah!” Hua Yong sighed heavily, “It’s a dilemma, Madam!”
It could be said that Yang Kai had given him a big problem. Before Yang Kai’s arrival, he and his wife had spent nearly ten thousand years in this Shadowless Cave Heaven. Although the conditions were a bit harsh, their lives were quite stable. However, as soon as Yang Kai arrived, the situation suddenly changed. In a short period of time, Profound Yang Mountain was destroyed, and the three of the four Mountain Lords has become his followers.
Immediately after, he did what Shadowless Cave Heaven's people had been unable to do for countless years and found the exit!
How could Hua Yong not want to leave the Shadowless Cave Heaven? If he stayed here in the dark, there would never be a way out, but if he left, he would need a lot of courage and determination.
The others didn’t know what was going on with the exit, but he did. After all, Yang Kai had told him very clearly.
If he left through that exit, it was highly likely he would fall into the Source of the Astral Wind, a dead end! The Astral Wind that swept into the Shadowless Cave Heaven from the outside was already so fierce. If he really fell into the Source of the Astral Wind, he couldn’t imagine what would happen. Even with his Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivation, he would likely collapse soon.
Shu Mudan gently asked, “Didn’t Mister Yang say that he has a method to resist the invasion of the astral winds?”
Hua Yong said, “That may be so, but he’s bringing a lot of people with him this time. Not to mention Lan Youruo and the others, there’s also Mao Zhe and the other two. If you and I were to join him, how much can he shelter us? Now that he has gone to the Matchless Society, once this news spreads, who knows how many people will want to go with him.”
Shu Mudan said, “Since he’s doing this, it means he really has the ability.”
Hua Yong slowly shook his head, “Nothing is certain!”
Shu Mudan smiled lightly, “Since Old Master thinks it’s difficult to make a decision, why don’t you think about what will happen if we don’t leave?”
“Don't leave…” Hua Yong’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Shu Mudan said, “If we don’t leave now, it’s highly likely that this Shadowless Cave Heaven will be controlled by you and me in the future. Mao Zhe and the others will definitely leave, and now that Mister Yang has gone to the Matchless Society, the three brothers won’t be able to resist such temptation and will most likely follow him. At that time, only you and I will be left here.”
Hua Yong’s eyes lit up when he heard this. If that was the case, staying behind wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
Shu Mudan continued, “When the time comes, we can unite the forces of Shadowless Cave Heaven. There will no longer be any three great forces here, only Gemini Island.”
“Madam’s words are reasonable!” Hua Yong nodded repeatedly, a smile appearing on his face.
Shu Mudan said, “In another year or so, Lin’er will be born. With our strength, it shouldn’t be a problem to take care of him. However, Shadowless Cave Heaven is lacking in resources, and after so many years of searching, our three great forces have been running low on resources. Putting aside Lin’er’s aptitude, it shouldn’t be too bad, but without resources, what realm can he cultivate to? This Shadowless Cave Heaven's spiritual energy is so scarce, perhaps only a Saint King or Principle Source? However, in the end, he won’t be able to reach the Open Heaven Stage. At that time, his lifespan won’t be long, and when he grows old, we’ll have to send him off!”
Listening to this, Hua Yong couldn’t help shuddering as he turned around and placed his hand on Shu Mudan’s stomach, as if he was protecting his own treasure, glaring, “Madam, don’t speak nonsense.”
Shu Mudan looked at him quietly.
Their eyes met and Hua Yong suddenly understood, “Madam is trying to persuade me.”
Shu Mudan shook her head and said, “Since this mistress is married to Old Master, I will follow Old Master for the rest of my life. I agree with whatever decision Old Master makes. If you want to stay here, I’ll stay here. If you want to leave, I’ll leave with you, but… you and I now have something else to worry about, so Old Master must think about him!”
As she spoke, she rubbed her belly affectionately.
Hua Yong hesitated, “But the Source of the Astral Wind…”
Shu Mudan said, “Since Mister Yang is determined to leave, he should have some confidence. If it really is a situation where death is certain, I’m sure he won’t put himself in danger so easily. Who would joke about their own life?”
Hua Yong frowned for a moment before saying, “Let me carefully consider this matter.”
Shu Mudan nodded and said, “Old Master doesn’t need to feel burdened, I will support whatever decision you make.”
Hua Yong held her hands in gratitude. With his wife like this, what more could he ask for?
Shu Mudan quickly left, and Hua Yong drank a few more pots of wine, his face a bit drunk. Finally, he made up his mind and sent a message to his subordinate, informing them that if Yang Kai returned, he should immediately inform him.
His subordinate nodded.
After three to five days, Yang Kai returned to Gemini Island and immediately set up a Space Array in the bamboo forest.
The Proprietress needed a month to eliminate the aftereffects of using the Blood Monster Battle Dress last time, so he could use this time to arrange some things.
There was already a Space Array at the exit, so it would be more convenient to set up another one here.
Just as he was busying himself, someone came and told him that Hua Yong invite him to attend a banquet.
