Yang Kai and Gu Pan returned to the Spirit Province, an hour later, someone flew over. This person was a Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator, one of Gu Pan’s Senior Brothers. He was tall and had an extraordinary bearing.
After introducing the two of them, Yang Kai learned that they were called Dong Peng.
“Junior Brother Yang, I’ll leave this to you!” Dong Peng handed a jade slip to Yang Kai and whispered, “Master said Junior Brother must be careful of his own safety.”
Yang Kai nodded, “Many thanks for Senior’s concern, I will definitely be careful.”
Dong Peng nodded and patted Gu Pan’s little head before soaring into the sky.
Yang Kai’s Divine Sense poured into the jade slip and after examining it, he couldn’t help frowning.
Gu Pan asked with concern, “How is it?”
“There are a lot of people here, you should take a look yourself,” Yang Kai handed the jade slip to Gu Pan.
The list of names in the jade slip was divided into two parts. One was related to Shi Zheng, and the other was related to Zong Yuquan.
There were more than a hundred of these people, each of them at least a Sixth Order or above, with seven or eight at the Seventh Order.
From this, it could be seen just how strong the Cave Heaven Paradise's foundation was. This was only the list of some experts in Lang Ya Paradise, how many of them were there in Lang Ya Paradise?
On the back of each list, not only was their cultivation marked, but also their positions in Lang Ya Paradise.
More than a dozen of them were not in Lang Ya Paradise, most likely because they were out on a mission. These dozen or so people could be ignored for the time being, but there were still more than eighty left!
Of these eighty people, Yang Kai couldn’t just run over and test them one by one, that would be too stupid.
The 'Ink Will Last Forever' words were actually the most convenient way to probe the Inked. If the other party was also Inked, he would definitely respond. However, this was the first time they had met and it's not convenient to directly talk about this. What if the other party wasn’t Inked? Wouldn’t that be awkward?
This method of probing could not be used too many times.
According to Li Yuan Wang, the High Rank Open Heaven masters of the various Cave Heaven Paradise had some understanding of the Black Ink Clan, so regardless of whether they had been turned into ink or not, once Yang Kai said this in front of them, they would definitely have some reaction.
Just like how Li Yuan Wang had caught him off guard and dragged him into the world of the painting!
If he wanted to find out the identity of these Inked people, he would have to think of another way!
Zong Yuquan was indeed a breakthrough point, but Yang Kai felt that he shouldn’t be in a hurry to find him. If he was too eager to obtain benefits, it would be inappropriate.
From Zong Yuquan’s perspective, he had already decided that he was his companion, so even if he didn’t look for him, Zong Yuquan should be able to find a way to contact him so that he could obtain more information.
After making up his mind, Yang Kai settled down in a Spirit Province.
Every day, when he had nothing to do, he would wander around, taking in the beautiful scenery of Lang Ya Paradise. Lang Ya Paradise has countless Spirit Provinces, each of which has its own unique scenery.
This scene of a man and a woman inseparable from each other was witnessed by many people, causing some rumors to spread. Many people secretly wondered if this Core Disciple had some kind of relationship with Yang Kai.
At first, no one knew Yang Kai’s identity, after all, very few people knew about him, but after all, Gu Pan’s identity was different. She had always been by Yang Kai’s side, so Yang Kai naturally received a lot of attention.
After asking around a few times, they found out that this fellow was actually the Void Land’s Lord, the one who had won the first place in the Yin-Yang Dao Exchange and caused several Cave Heaven Paradise to lose face.
How could this be good? Although Gu Pan’s status in Lang Ya Paradise was very high, because he had only cultivated for a short period of time and was quite petite, in the eyes of many Senior Brothers, she was just a little girl who had yet to grow up.
Her Senior Brothers had taken great care of her and doted on her.
If the two of them really liked each other, it would be fine, but the key was that Yang Kai was the son-in-law of Yin-Yang Heaven! In the future, he would have to marry into Yin-Yang Heaven.
Why didn’t you just stay by Qu Huachang’s side and wait for her to come out of seclusion and get married, why come to Lang Ya Paradise to flirt with Little Junior Sister?
However, their Little Junior Sister seemed to care about him quite a bit and would always accompany him to this Spirit Province to see the flowers and plants, and then to that Spirit Province to see the sunrise and sunset.
The group of Senior Brothers felt like their hearts were about to break, feeling like the delicate flower they had carefully protected and raised was about to be eaten by a pig.
Under this strange combination of circumstances, while the Inked had no idea what was going on, the entire Lang Ya Paradise was in turmoil.
On this day, Yang Kai was following Gu Pan towards a Spirit Province. He had heard that there was a market inside Lang Ya Disciple’s hall and there were many good things there.
Moreover, the one guarding the market was a Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage master, one of the people on the list Li Yuan Wang had given him.
Yang Kai was somewhat depressed. He had been here for more than ten days, and besides being able to confirm Zong Yuquan’s identity, he has no other clue about the other Inked. The main reason he had gone to that market was to see if there was anything wrong with the Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage master over there.
However, halfway through, a stream of light shot out and blocked their path.
This person has the aura of a Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage master, a burly and imposing figure. As soon as they met, he immediately sized up Yang Kai with a scrutinizing gaze.
“Senior Brother Zhong Fan!” Gu Pan looked towards the person who had just arrived and first bowed before asking, “Is there something you need, Senior Brother?”
Zhong Fan’s fiendish appearance didn’t seem like anything good, but at this moment, he forced a smile that could stop children from crying and tried his best to put on a gentle expression, “It’s nothing, it’s nothing. I heard that Junior Sister had a guest, so I came to take a look.”
Turning his head to look at Yang Kai, his expression became less polite as he asked, “Are you that Yang Kai?”
“Yang Kai greets Senior Brother Zhong!” Yang Kai bowed, curious. What did this Zhong Fan mean by blocking his way? And from the looks of it… he didn’t have good intentions!
Silently comparing the names, Zhong Fan was not on the list.
Zhong Fan waved his hand and angrily shouted, “Don’t try to get close to me, little brat!”
Yang Kai was confused!
What?
Looking over, Zhong Fan’s hands suddenly grabbed two giant hammers that seemed to contain world strength, causing them to expand into two mountains.
Zhong Fan raised his hammer high and smashed it down towards Yang Kai, shouting angrily, “This old master can’t stand people who think differently. If you want to deceive Junior Sister Gu’s feelings, you’ll have to get past me first.”
This hammer strike was so powerful that even a mountain in front of it could be smashed to pieces.
Gu Pan’s beautiful face paled, “Senior Brother Zhong, stop!”
As soon as she finished speaking, a gentle force pushed towards her. Yang Kai reached out and pushed her to the side while he dodged.
Zhong Fan’s hammer hit nothing but air. Turning his head, he saw that Yang Kai had appeared somewhere else.
Yang Kai looked at him helplessly and asked, “Senior Brother Zhong, is there some kind of misunderstanding between us?”
Zhong Fan shook his head, raised his hammer, and smashed it towards Yang Kai again, “Whether it’s a misunderstanding or not, I’ll teach you a lesson first!”
Yang Kai tried to dodge again, but Zhong Fan’s cultivation technique was definitely the kind that allowed him to move forward boldly, and his personality was probably the same. The power of these two giant mountain-like hammers was limitless, so it wasn’t difficult for him to wield them, but even so, the prerequisite was that he had to hit people first.
If it was an ordinary Sixth Order, facing such a fierce attack, they might not be able to dodge it, but with Yang Kai Space Laws, if he still couldn’t dodge it, he would have wasted so many years of cultivation.
After failing several times, Zhong Fan was furious, “This little brat is as timid as a mouse, yet you still want to deceive Junior Sister like this. Junior Sister, you must open your eyes, you can’t find a man so irresponsible.”
Gu Pan’s face turned red as she stomped her foot, “Senior Brother Zhong, what are you talking about!”
“You’re blushing!” Zhong Fan became even angrier as his Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage aura soared, his entire body erupting like a volcano as he shouted, “Aiya, little brat, come fight me to the death!”
“Senior Brother Zhong, Junior Sister Gu and I aren’t what you think we are!” Yang Kai tried to explain. Now that he wanted to investigate the matter of Ink, how could he have the mood to fight with others? Moreover, it was a fight with no reason.
What’s more, this is Lang Ya Paradise, so what if he defeated Zhong Fan? At that time, Lang Ya will face him as common enemy.
Zhong Fan became even angrier, “You want to deny it after eating it? I’ll beat you to death!”
Gu Pan’s face was red to the neck, “Senior Brother Zhong, stop talking.”
This guy’s voice was so loud that even half of Lang Ya Paradise could hear him. If word of this got out, wouldn’t she lose her innocence?
Yang Kai sighed. It didn’t make any sense at all. How did this guy cultivate to the Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage?
If he couldn’t explain it, then so be it. Seeing another hammer coming towards him, Yang Kai quickly dodged to Gu Pan’s side and wrapped his arm around her waist, activating his Space Laws and instantly disappearing.
“Where is he?” Zhong Fan turned his head and looked around, but there was no trace of Yang Kai. After searching for a moment and confirming that Yang Kai had indeed escaped, he roared towards the sky, “You heartless thief, come and fight me to the death!”
On a remote Spirit Province, Yang Kai and Gu Pan’s figures appeared.
Gu Pan looked at Yang Kai apologetically, “Senior Brother Yang, I’m sorry, but Senior Brother Zhong has always been like this. I’m afraid he heard some gossip and caused a misunderstanding, he doesn’t have any malicious intentions.”
Yang Kai smiled and said, “I know. If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t have stopped just now.”
“Eh…” Gu Pan suddenly turned her head to the side, “Senior Brother Lin, why are you here?”
Not far away, under a towering tree, a young man dressed in snow-white robes stood with his hands behind his back, his back facing the two of them, his head slightly tilted towards the sky, his posture extremely handsome, a desolate aura surrounding him.
Only to hear him sigh lightly, “The trees want to remain calm but the wind will not stop!”
Yang Kai and Gu Pan looked at each other blankly.
Senior Brother Lin continued, “Originally, I didn’t intend to get involved, but since we’ve already encountered each other, it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to ignore it. So… show your sword, young man!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and a branch fell onto his palm. In an instant, his Sword Intent soared into the sky, causing the ancient trees and leaves to rustle!
