“Sir, are you trying to lure them into a trap?” Grey Bones' expression changed as he understood Yang Kai’s intentions.
He had been puzzled as to why Yang Kai would let him go and even use the Loyalty List to subdue him. With the strength Yang Kai had displayed before, no Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage on the Crime Star could be his opponent, and his existence was undoubtedly a good achievement for him.
Only now did he realize that he had subdued him to make use of his connections.
“Finding them one by one would be too troublesome, I should let them deliver themselves to my doorstep to be slaughtered!” Yang Kai grinned.
“I understand,” Grey Bones lowered his head, “But Sir, the few people I know don’t live in a fixed place. Some people like to wander around, while others are even more mysterious. I may not be able to contact everyone.”
“Just do your best!” Yang Kai said.
If that wasn’t the case, he wouldn’t have needed to subdue a Grey Bones Heavenly Monarch. A Sixth Order Heavenly Monarch was worth five stars to him, and it was precisely because Qu Huachang had given him a jade slip that said that most of the Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage masters on Crime Star had no fixed residence and were difficult to find, that Yang Kai make Grey Bones surrender to him and planned to use him to lure the other Sixth Order Heavenly Monarchs.
Grey Bones Heavenly Monarch immediately made arrangements, wanting to send a message to the other Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage masters wasn’t an easy task. On Crime Star, although many Sixth Order cultivators had interacted with one another, only a small number of them had friendly relations with one another. Grey Bones asked White Hair to bring his token to some places he knew about and send a message to the Sixth Order cultivators, inviting them to his Cave Mansion to discuss how to deal with the Dao Exchange.
There was no doubt about White Hair’s loyalty to Grey Bones Heavenly Monarch. Previously, he had even had the courage to intercept Yang Kai alone to create an opportunity for Grey Bones Heavenly Monarch to escape. With him personally sending a message about this matter, there was no need to worry about it being leaked.
Yang Kai, on the other hand, led the way back to the dense forest tree cave with Grey Bones.
Inside the dense forest, the Golden Crow True Fire had completely destroyed the surrounding, so it needed to be rearranged in order to avoid any flaws from the other Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage.
On the other hand, Yang Kai was cultivating in the tree hole, refining the Open Heaven Pill.
After waiting for a few days, more criminals from Crime Star entered the dense forest, but none of them were Sixth Order, only Third Order, Fourth Order, or Fifth Order. Some of them were alone, while others were in groups of three or five, but White Hair had sent a message to all of them. When he saw these people, he announced that his Old Master and Great Clam had joined forces to resist the participants of the Dao Exchange Conference.
Many of the sinners on Crime Star were currently without a leader, and when they learned that there would be many Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage masters participating in the Dao Exchange Conference, they had been terrified. Now that they knew that these two Sixth Order Heavenly Monarchs were willing to carry the flag to resist the Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage masters, they naturally came to submit.
This time, they had stepped into the gates of hell!
Yang Kai didn’t need to do anything. With Grey Bones Heavenly Monarch taking action, anyone who came to the forest was captured and brought to Yang Kai, killed on the spot.
A few days later, the golden bracelet on Yang Kai’s wrist gained a few more stars, and as time passed, more sinners came to the forest to submit to Grey Bones, so Yang Kai’s harvest became greater.
When Lu Jing saw this, he couldn’t help feeling envious.
For someone like Yang Kai, who sat calmly on the sidelines and didn’t need to do anything, a sinner taking the initiative to deliver battle achievements to him was simply too easy and convenient. However, he also knew that this kind of thing couldn’t be envied. The reason why Yang Kai could harvest so easily was because he had the backing of a powerful strength. Without strength, everything was just empty talk.
Half a month later, the number of stars on Yang Kai’s Golden Bracelet had increased to fifteen. Aside from the five stars from killing Great Clam, the rest had been obtained by killing those below the Sixth Order.
The Dao Exchange had only begun less than a month ago, but Yang Kai had already achieved such results. Lu Jing really couldn’t think of anyone who could compete with him.
Even if the other participants were to continue searching for sinners, the speed at which they lit up the stars would probably be slower than Yang Kai’s.
And all of this was the result of subduing Grey Bones Heavenly Monarch. Compared to directly killing Grey Bones Heavenly Monarch, using his connections and prestige would undoubtedly be more profitable.
On this day, Yang Kai was refining the Open Heaven Pill in the tree hole while Lu Jing sat quietly to the side.
Suddenly, he heard a loud roar from outside, “Grey Bones, Great Clam, this King has arrived, hurry up and come see me!”
Yang Kai slowly opened his eyes, a brilliant light flashing across them. After waiting for so many days, a big fish had finally arrived!
The figure of Grey Bones Heavenly Monarch flashed in and cupped his fists, “Sir!”
“I understand,” Yang Kai slowly stood up, “Who came? How strong is he?”
Grey Bones said, “The one who came is Shen Luo Heavenly Monarch. In terms of cultivation, he is slightly weaker than me and Great Clam, but not by much. Of course, compared to Sir, he is definitely inferior.”
This wasn’t because he was afraid and throwing flattery, but after witnessing Yang Kai’s strength, Grey Bones felt that no one at the Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage could be Yang Kai’s opponent. Only a Seventh Order could suppress such a powerful force.
“However, Shen Luo didn’t come alone this time. He also brought many subordinates with him.”
There was a Formation set up in this dense forest. As long as someone was inside this Formation, Grey Bones would be able to see through it.
“Good!” Yang Kai licked his lips and stood up, “I’ll leave those trash to you, this Shen Luo is mine.”
“Yes!” Gray Bone replied.
Inside the Formation, the tall Shen Luo Heavenly Monarch shouted impatiently, “Grey Bones, Great Clam, are you all dead? This King has come to discuss important matters with you, yet you all refuse to meet me, what kind of logic is this!”
The Fifth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator next to him frowned and wore a vigilant expression as he whispered, “Sir, be careful, there seems to be something wrong here!”
Hearing this, Shen Luo’s brow wrinkled. He hadn’t paid much attention to this, after all, Grey Bones and Great Clam were both gathered here, so who would dare offend them? But after being reminded by his subordinates, he immediately realized that something was wrong. This place was too quiet.
Grey Bones was one thing, he didn’t have many subordinates, only White Hair, who had gone to deliver the message. However, there were some subordinates under Great Clam Heavenly Monarch, so how come none of them had appeared?
Just as he was thinking this, two figures suddenly appeared in front of him.
Shen Luo looked up and frowned, “Grey Bones, what the hell are you doing? Who is this guy? Where’s Great Clam?”
The unfamiliar young man looked down at him from above, his eyes filled with a deep sense of aggression, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Grey Boneslightly said, “Sorry!”
“What?” Shen Luo Heavenly Monarch was confused.
Yang Kai grinned at him, “Great Clam is dead! Don’t worry, I’ll send you to meet him!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly appeared in front of Shen Luo, almost touching his face.
Shen Luo Heavenly Monarch was shocked, but without even thinking about it, he threw a punch forward and gathered all his strength into his fist, pouring out a Sixth Order Open Heaven World Force!
Yang Kai also blocked with his fist, and with a loud bang, the World Force shook, causing Shen Luo Heavenly Monarch to feel as if his Small Universe had been struck by a violent storm, his body shaking violently as he was forced back.
“Sixth Order Open Heaven?” Shen Luo’s expression changed greatly, “Are you from the Cave Heaven Paradise?”
There were only a dozen or so Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage on Crime Star, and everyone had lived here together for so many years. Even if they didn’t have any friendship, they had met each other before, but Shen Luo had never seen this young man before him.
There was only one possibility that could explain the current situation.
This young man was not a sinner from Crime Star, but a participant from a certain Cave Heaven Paradise!
“Grey Bones, you dare collude with the Cave Heaven Paradise to harm us!” Shen Luo roared.
Grey Bones Heavenly Monarch's eyes drooped, “I have no other choice, Shen Luo, you can only pray for your own good.”
Yang Kai laughed, “Enough nonsense, take another punch from me!” Another punch landed, causing Shen Luo Heavenly Monarch to stagger.
During these two exchanges, Shen Luo had also probed Yang Kai’s strength a little. The strength of his opponent’s Small Universe was actually much stronger than his own.
Wasn’t it said that the Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage participating in this Dao Exchange Conference were all newly promoted? How could a newly promoted cultivator with less than a hundred years of experience have such a foundation? Where the hell did this piece of information come from?
As this thought flashed through his mind, a fist shadow appeared in front of him.
Shen Luo didn’t dare delay and could only desperately resist.
Boom, boom, boom… Explosions rang out one after another as Shen Luo’s figure was forced back again, only able to resist the pressure. Turning his head, he saw that Grey Bones was actually bombarding his subordinates.
Although he had several Fifth Order subordinates under him, how could they compete with a Sixth Order who had been promoted for many years? It was only a matter of time before they died.
It was not safe to remain in this dangerous place!
Once Grey Bones decided to join forces with this young man, it would be a two versus one situation, and he might not have a chance to escape!
With this thought in mind, Shen Luo no longer cared about the lives of his subordinates and used all his strength to send out a punch to force Yang Kai back before turning to flee.
“You want to run?” Yang Kai shouted as he activated his Space Laws, causing the surrounding space to rapidly thicken. At the same time, he used his [So Close, Yet Worlds Apart] Secret Technique, causing the space around Shen Luo to stretch endlessly.
Both of them were Sixth Order, so Shen Luo naturally wouldn’t be completely affected by this Space Ability, but it also greatly delayed his speed of escape.
With a great crisis looming behind him, Shen Luo had no choice but to turn around and resist.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Every time they collided, Shen Luo felt his Small Universe World shake violently, causing his blood to boil and his head to spin.
With another punch, Shen Luo quickly retreated. Looking down, he saw that his fists were covered in white bones and his flesh was a mess.
On the opposite side, the young man looked at him calmly, as if he hadn’t used his full strength.
Shen Luo’s heart sank! He had a bad feeling that today was not going to end well!
“If you only have this little bit of strength, then please… go to hell!” As Yang Kai spoke, he stretched out his hand and grasped the Azure Dragon Spear in his palm before thrusting it towards Shen Luo.
