“It’s good that you’ve broken through, so you don’t always have to worry about others. Alright, I won’t say anything more to you. When you have time, come visit this old master. The two little kids miss you a lot.”
Yang Kai respectfully replied, “After this little brat has settled down, I’ll pay you a visit.”
Looking helplessly at the head which had emerged from the fog, Mao Zhe and the others couldn’t help feeling like they had just escaped death.
His back was wet and he was covered in cold sweat.
“Old… Old Master, what is that?” Shu Mudan’s face paled slightly as she leaned against Hua Yong, seemingly trying to find a sense of security.
Hua Yong swallowed his saliva and asked hesitantly, “A turtle head?”
Shu Mudan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “How could there be such a big turtle…” If a head was so big, how big would its body be?
“Bi Xi!” Mao Zhe’s voice was hoarse as he stared at Yang Kai, “The Dragon gave birth to nine sons and Bi Xi is one of them. There was actually one Bi Xi raised in the Void Land?”
With these words, everyone was shocked.
Yang Kai smiled slightly, “Brother Mao is indeed experienced and knowledgeable, but this old master was not raised by my Void Land, instead he was carrying us on his back. This old master has been asleep for many years, and over the years, he has gained a Spirit Province on his back, which is the former body of the Void Land. However, this old master is merciful and can't bear a loss of life, so he allowed us to act presumptuously on his back.”
Mao Zhe’s eyes twitched violently as Hua Yong gulped, his voice hoarse, “The Void Land is actually being carried on Bi Xi's back?”
Such a thing was simply unheard of and unheard of! The Holy Spirit is extremely famous, and every adult Holy Spirit was comparable to a High Rank Open Heaven, especially an old monster who had lived for countless years. Its strength was probably no weaker than any Eighth Order Open Heaven Stage.
The entire Void Land is on its back, so if there really was some kind of calamity, how could it just ignore it? In other words, such a powerful Holy Spirit was simply the strongest protection the Void Land could get!
What Hua Yong couldn’t understand was why Bi Xi acting so polite to Yang Kai. In the entire 3000 Worlds, there weren’t many existences that could catch his eye.
On the other hand, Mao Zhe’s eyes flashed as a thoughtful look appeared on his face. Back on Profound Yang Mountain, Yang Kai had revealed his 300 hundred zhang tall dragon body and violently destroyed Profound Yang Mountain, causing Mao Zhe to think that Yang Kai was a Dragon Clan.
Now that he thought about it, Bi Xi attitude might have something to do with this. After all, Bi Xi also has the Dragon Clan Bloodline.
The Void Land itself was a magnificent place, with the heritage of a great sect and a flourishing Star City nearby. It had no lack of wealth, and now it even had a guardian like Bi Xi. Such a second class force was probably the only one in the entire 3000 Worlds.
Before coming to the Void Land, everyone had wondered what kind of place the Void Land was and whether it could accommodate these Flood Dragons that had escaped to the sea. If the water in the Void Land was too shallow, these Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage wouldn’t be able to display their full strength.
Only after arriving here did he realize that the waters of the Void Land were quite deep, so he no longer dared to underestimate them. Instead, he couldn’t help feeling proud of himself.
After all, in name, they were already considered people of the Void Land!
A crack appeared in the fog below and two figures rushed out, instantly arriving on the deck.
Yue He stared at Yang Kai in pleasant surprise and suppressed the excitement in her heart as she bowed, “Young Master!”
“Get up,” Yang Kai stepped forward and lifted her arm, patting the back of her hand, “Sorry for worrying you.”
Yue He slowly shook her head, “It’s good that Young Master has returned safely.”
Old Bai looked around behind her but didn’t see the person he was looking for. His heart couldn’t help sinking as he asked nervously, “Where’s the Proprietress and the others?”
Yang Kai smiled and said, “Don’t worry, the Proprietress and the others have also come out, but we were separated on the way back. Proprietress is going back to the Thousand Birds Star City.”
“Thousand Birds Star City…” When Old Bai heard this, his expression relaxed. He was most afraid of hearing some kind of bad news, but now that he learned that the Proprietress had returned safely and had only separated from Yang Kai halfway, he felt relieved and quickly said, “I’ll go too.”
“The Proprietress asked you to wait for her here, I’m afraid the Proprietress will be here soon,” Yang Kai called out to his back.
“I can’t wait any longer.” Old Bai didn’t even turn back, turning into a streak of light and rushing off into the distance. If he didn’t personally confirm that the Proprietress was safe and sound, he wouldn’t feel at ease.
Seeing him insist on leaving, Yang Kai could only helplessly watch him leave.
On the ship, Mao Zhe, Hua Yong, and the others all stared at Yue He curiously. They had clearly heard her call out ‘Young Master’ just now, but now that they looked at this woman again, although they couldn’t sense her exact cultivation due to her aura being restrained, they could vaguely feel that she was at least a Fifth Order Open Heaven Stage master, or even a Sixth Order like them.
With such a cultivation, she still called Yang Kai 'Young Master'…
Just what kind of background did their Sect Master have? For a moment, everyone became suspicious, wondering if Yang Kai had some great backer.
“Let’s go back first,” Yang Kai ordered as the ship continued to fly towards the Void Land.
The great array below opened on its own accord, obviously having investigated the situation here. With the Sect Master returning, no one dared to stop him.
Before they even landed, Yang Kai, who was standing on the deck, saw a large group of people gathered below. The one in the lead was the Void Land’s Second Manager, Bian Yuqing.
Flying straight over, Yang Kai waited for the ship to stabilize before jumping off with the others.
The people who had been waiting here all bowed and said, “Welcome back, Sect Master!”
“Get up,” Yang Kai stretched out his hand, “We’re all family, there’s no need to be so polite.”
Sweeping his gaze around, he saw that behind Bian Yuqing, almost all of the Mid Rank Open Heaven masters in the Void Land had gathered here. Even Mo Mei, who had been stationed in the Star City all year round, had rushed back.
Everyone stood up, and Bian Yuqing smiled lightly. Just as she was about to say something, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Yang Kai, her hands clasped behind her back, calmly staring at him.
Yang Kai was startled and almost couldn’t resist punching out, but after realizing who it was, he couldn’t help taking two steps back with a wry smile, “Senior Zhu!”
The newcomer was none other than Zhu Jiu Yin.
Seeing her still remain in the Void Land, Yang Kai was also overjoyed. Logically speaking, since she had protected him last time, after he entered Shadowless Cave Heaven, all the previous agreements had been invalidated. In other words, she was no longer Yang Kai’s Dao Protector.
From now on, she was free to come and go as she pleased.
Yang Kai was a bit worried that this woman would run away.
It wasn’t a big deal for her to leave alone, but the key was that Luo'er was currently cultivating with her. If she left, she would most likely take Luo'er along with her. At that time, even if Luo'er was unwilling, she wouldn’t be able to resist.
Seeing her still remain in the Void Land, Yang Kai was quite relieved. Thinking about it, although she was a Holy Spirit, in all of these 3000 Worlds, where else could she go besides the Void Land? After all, she had come from the Great Ruins Boundary, so there was no place she was familiar with outside. Instead of going out and wandering about, she might as well stay here.
Zhu Jiu Yin snorted lightly, “Good people don’t live long, but scourges live for thousands of years. I already told you that this little brat won’t die, but you didn’t believe me, see, now he's back.”
Bian Yuqing smiled apologetically, “Yes, yes, yes, Senior is right. Junior’s worries are groundless.”
“Hmph!” Zhu Jiu Yin coldly snorted, glaring at Yang Kai with a look of disdain before turning to look at the person behind him and disappearing.
Yang Kai smiled bitterly and bowed, “Farewell, Senior!”
Behind him, Mao Zhe and the others were drenched in cold sweat and their flesh was tense.
When Zhu Jiu Yin appeared, there was not even the slightest gap between them. Although this woman had not displayed any kind of power from beginning to end, just a glance from her made Mao Zhe and the others feel as if their lives were no longer under their control. If she was willing, she could easily take their lives.
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Mao Zhe asked, “Sir, just now, that person was…”
Yang Kai raised his hand to his mouth and whispered, “Heavenly Moon Demon Spider Zhu Jiu Yin, this woman’s temper is quite bad. Be careful when you see her in the future.”
Hiss…
A sharp intake of breath rang out as everyone stared at Yang Kai in disbelief, as if they were asking if he was joking. One Bi Xi on the Void Land was already shocking enough, but there was actually a Heavenly Moon Demon Spider too?
Although the name of Bi Xi is bigger, it had a gentle temperament and a good reputation, so even though everyone had seen its true form before, they weren’t too worried about it, but the Heavenly Moon Demon Spider was different. It had a vicious reputation, and human lives were nothing to her.
Everyone was on the verge of tears, and when they thought about how they had such a Holy Spirit living next to them, they couldn’t help feeling a bit nervous, afraid that if they accidentally angered her one day, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Little brat, you dare speak ill of me? Don’t even think about seeing Luo'er for ten years!” An explosion rang out beside Yang Kai’s ear, causing Mao Zhe and the others to jump.
Yang Kai’s face immediately became bitter, “Senior, this Junior was wrong, please forgive this Junior’s wrongdoings, please don’t be so petty!”
How could Zhu Jiu Yin respond? She obviously didn’t want to respond to Yang Kai.
Mao Zhe and the others all looked at him sympathetically. Although they didn’t know who this Luo'er was, they guessed it should be someone important to Yang Kai.
Yang Kai sighed dejectedly, “A loose tongue causes a lot of trouble!”
Bian Yuqing suppressed her laughter and changed the subject, “Sect Master, these friends behind you are…”
Yang Kai took a deep breath to calm his depressed mood before introducing, “They all followed me out of Shadowless Cave Heaven and are willing to join my Void Land. In the future, they will all be one of us.”
When Bian Yuqing and the others heard this, their eyes lit up. Bian Yuqing’s cultivation wasn’t high enough, so she couldn’t see through their true strength, but Mo Mei and the others could clearly feel the strength of the people behind Yang Kai.
Yang Kai then gave a brief introduction to the two sides, with Bian Yuqing as the lead, Mo Mei, Yue He, Lu Xue, Pang Duo, Gong Yang Xi, Jin Yuan Lang, Mu Qianxuan, and the others.
On Shadowless Cave Heaven’s side were Mao Zhe, Geng Qing, Zhou Ya, Hua Yong, and Shu Mudan.
Everyone greeted each other one by one. Although they couldn’t quickly become familiar with each other, they still wanted to get to know each other first.
