βI have never agreed to join hands with you, why are you calling me a traitor?β The Embodiment looked innocently at Hua Qing Si.
βI donβt care!β Hua Qing Si turned her head sideways and didnβt spare him a glance. She said disdainfully, βTraitor, traitor, traitorβ¦β
βDonβt make a scene here!β Yang Kai snorted coldly and said, βTell me, whatβs Han Lengβs secret?β
βI donβt know,β Hua Qing Si replied bluntly.
βHeheβ¦β Yang Kai chuckled and said calmly, βIt looks like you still donβt understand your current situationβ¦ Iβll have to postpone this discussion until you come back to your senses.β
Upon speaking, he waved his hand, and Hua Qing Si who had been stranded mid-air disappeared suddenly. It was unknown where in the Small Sealed World she had been thrown!
Soon after, Yang Kai started weaving hand seals with both hands and sent several seals into the air. It looked like he cast some Secret Technique against Hua Qing Si!
βEven though this woman is pretty dull-witted, sheβs not a vile person,β the Embodiment said suddenly.
βI know,β Yang Kai nodded. βIf she didnβt want to save me, I wouldnβt have brought her here, and I would have killed her long ago to silence her.β
βItβs fine as long as you donβt go overboard,β the Embodiment said and cast a glance at Yang Kaiβs body, then spoke again, βYou should quickly treat your injuries.β
Yang Kai nodded and sat down cross-legged next to the medicine garden.
In the previous battle, he had been possessed by the Demon Sense and he fought bravely with no fear of death against three Emperor Realm Masters, and he ended up sustaining a lot of injuries, injuries that contained those said Emperor Realm Mastersβ Principle Power. It wasnβt easy to heal those injuries.
If an ordinary Dao Source Realm Master sustained similar injuries, then he could only consume elixirs to stop his injuries from worsening, and he wouldnβt have any means to treat them.
But Yang Kai was within the Small Sealed World, and he could draw help from this dimensionβs World Principles to erase the remnant Principle Power in his injuries.
Three days quickly elapsed, and Yang Kai finished treating his injuries. He had drawn help from the Life Force emitted by the Immortal Tree in the medicine garden to speed up his bodyβs recovery power, and thatβs why he completely recovered from his injuries in such a short time, there werenβt even any scars left.
However, he had just gone through a great battle and his body was still pretty feeble. He had to recuperate for several days to recover to his peak state.
Thereafter, he left the Small Sealed World and appeared within a guest room in the Zhang familyβs manor.
Liu Yan had been keeping guard near the Sealed World Bead all along, and her pretty eyes immediately lit up upon seeing Yang Kai, and she said out of delight, βMasterβ¦β
As she spoke, she observed Yang Kai thoroughly, and she heaved a sigh of relief upon ascertaining his well-being
βYouβve gone through a lot.β Yang Kai nodded at her then collected the Sealed World Bead.
Liu Yan said, βThatβs my duty.β
βSeems like you have advanced into the Dao Source Realm. Congratulations!β
Liu Yan had been sleeping all along within the magma beneath the Yuan Furnace Mountain and she absorbed the magmaβs fire power. Yang Kai had detected that she would shortly make an advancement, yet she hadnβt achieved it even after a whole month, and thatβs why he set off toward Maplewood City alone.
However, she had fortunately returned at the most crucial juncture and helped Yang Kai recover his sobriety by making use of the close mental bond between them. If she hadnβt shown up there, the consequences would have been too horrible to imagine.
βIβm already at the Dao Source Realm, but Iβm still too lacking in comparison to you,β Liu Yan said with a faint smile.
βYou donβt have to disparage yourself. You arenβt like ordinary beings and donβt have any outstanding advantage. But since Heaven has allowed you to reach your current realm, then itβll surely allow you to walk further down your road.β
βI hope soβ¦β Liu Yan revealed a longing look.
βBy the way, have a look at this, is it useful to you?β Yang Kai suddenly recalled something and took it out of his Space Ring.
When this object appeared, the whole roomβs temperature rose and a scorching aura pervaded it.
βThis isβ¦β Liu Yanβs pretty eyes contracted and she looked in shock at the object in Yang Kaiβs hands.
It was a feather, a one-meter-long golden feather with a black and lively flame burning on it, a flame seemingly able to burn even souls.
βItβs a Luan Fengβs feather,β Yang Kai explained.
He had gotten the feather of Luan Feng in Clear Jade Mountain. It wasnβt a fallen feather of a young Luan Feng, but rather the Divine Feather of a fully grown Divine Spirit.
Upon hearing Yang Kaiβs statement, Liu Yanβs body shook as he expected and she stared in a daze at Luan Fengβs feather with her shivering pretty eyes. She said, βCan I refine it?β
βThatβs what I hope,β Yang Kai handed over the feather to her with a smile.
Liu Yan took it and stroked it fondly.
Upon seeing this, Yang Kai sent her into the Sealed World Bead and left her there to refine it.
Soon after, he left the room and went to meet the Zhang familyβs members.
When the Zhang familyβs members saw Yang Kai, they all inquired about his well-being, and it was especially so for Zhang Ruo Xi. She was so bashful that she couldnβt utter a single word, but Yang Kai could feel her concern and relief through her frequent glances at him.
After Yang Kai had a chat with the Zhang family members, he went back to his room, then took out the Sound Bead and told Mo Xiao Qi that he was already out of harmβs way.
Mo Xiao Qi got pretty excited and promptly said that she was coming to see him, then hung up on him before he could stop her. He could only let out a bitter laugh in response!
After a short while, Yang Kai detected several powerful auras closing in from the distance and a personβs voice reached him before their arrival. βHahaha, brother Yang, weβve come to pay you a visit!β
A voice full of vigour reverberated!
Upon discerning who had just spoken, the Zhang family descended into chaos and they all lined up outside to welcome him under the lead of the Zhang familyβs matriarch.
After a short while, there was a bright flash and several silhouettes appeared.
The Zhang familyβs old madam bowed and shouted, βCity Lord, youβve honoured our humble abode with your presence, and weβre sorry for failing to welcome you properly.β
The other people had also greeted Duan Yuan Shan.
Duan Yuan Shan waved his hand and said with a smile, βOld Madam, you donβt have to be so polite, Iβve come uninvited and itβs me who should ask for your forgiveness. Iβve come here to see brother Yang and I wonder if heβsβ¦β
βSenior Yang is resting in our guest room. Sirs, please come with me,β The old madam had been speaking calmly, yet anyone could discern her repressed excitement.
Usually, the little Zhang family wouldnβt get into the City Lordβs eyes, and it was even impossible for him to leave Maplewood City to visit them, yet at this moment, this impossible matter had occurred.
They knew well it was all because of Yang Kai, but this was still a great honour for the Zhang family.
Only a bunch of orphans and widows were left in the Zhang family and other families might set their eyes on them, but if what happened on this day spread out, then those families eyeing them wouldnβt dare to make a move against them, and their survival might even depend on the Zhang familyβs attitude.
The old madam had finally seen hope for the Zhang familyβs rise and she was quite grateful to Yang Kai.
βSorry for bothering you,β Duan Yuan Shan said with a faint smile and was about to land with his companions, yet one of them couldnβt wait any longer and turned into a light beam that ventured into the Zhang familyβs manor and disappeared in one of its rooms.
βWhy is he so anxious and impatient?β Upon seeing this, Duan Yuan Shan could only laugh bitterly, and he didnβt reprimand him.
In the guest room, Kang Si Ran pushed open the door and entered, and he found Yang Kai gazing at him with a smile.
βBrother Yang, are youβ¦ alright?β Kang Si Ran observed Yang Kaiβs state nervously, and he heaved a sigh of relief only after assessing his well-being. βI heard from the City Lord that you got corrupted by the Demon Qi outside the city and you had almost turned into a demon. It really gave me a scare!β
βSomething like that happened, but fortunately, I have crossed that crisis without suffering a mishap,β Yang Kai nodded with a smile.
Kang Si Ran felt ashamed of himself and said, βAt that time, I had been trying to break through my bottleneck in secluded cultivation and had no idea about whatβs happening outside and didnβt get any information about it until I left seclusion two days ago. But, you had already disappeared then and I couldnβt find you despite searching for you with the City Lord. I really have no face to stand before you.β
Kang Si Ranβs expression was sincere and those were heartfelt words.
After all, he had become a Dao Source Realm Cultivator thanks to the Dao Source Pill given to him by Yang Kai.
Moreover, Kang Si Ran detected faintly that the Dao Source Pill with Pill Veins didnβt just help him advance into the next Great Realm and it had also altered something within him.
He couldnβt describe with words what it had altered, but he could still feel that the First-Order Dao Source Realm wasnβt the end of his Martial Path and he still had hope to advance further and peer into the Emperor Realmβs mysteries.
This wasnβt any different than giving him a new lease of life, and he felt like he would never be able to repay this great favour.
Yang Kaiβs favour wasnβt any different than a mountain weighing on his shoulders, yet when Yang Kai was facing grave danger, he was in the dark, and he felt very ashamed of himself.
However, upon seeing that Yang Kai was safe and sound, he finally felt a lot better.
Yang Kai said earnestly, βBrother Kang, thanks for your concern!β
βPlease donβt thank meβ¦β Kang Si Ran scratched his face.
βShopkeeper Kang, youβve got a good relationship with Brother Yang,β Duan Yuan Shanβs voice reached them, as he entered the room, followed closely by Mo Xiao Qi.
Upon seeing Yang Kai, Mo Xiao Qiβs eyes lit up and she stuck out her tongue sheepishly. She said, βI wanted to come alone, but when City Lord Duan and Shopkeeper Kang heard that you had come back, they insisted on following me hereβ¦β
βMiss Mo Xiao Qi, that isnβt your fault, Iβm the one to blame for coming uninvited. Brother Yang, I hope that I didnβt disturb your rest.β Duan Yuan Shan chuckled and spoke.
βCity Lord Duan, you donβt have to treat me as a stranger,β Yang Kai smiled and nodded at Mo Xiao Qi. βOur room is simple and crude, and you can sit wherever you see fit.β
Duan Yuan Shan didnβt act with reservation and he just picked a chair and sat down, while Mo Xiao Qi and Kang Si Ran had also done the same.
After they all took their seats, Duan Yuan Shan said with a solemn expression, βBrother Yang, I have to apologize to you.β
βCity Lord, what do you mean?β Yang Kai acted dumb and asked in confusion.
Duan Yuan Shan said, βAt that time, Zhuang Pan escaped and the Black Tortoise Seven Sections Array collapsed by itself, while you got corrupted by Demon Qi, and I couldnβt save you in time. I really couldnβt get over it and I feel ashamed of myself every time I recall it.β
Yang Kai shook his head and said, βCity Lord Duan, it isnβt as grave as you said. I was well aware of the situation then, and it wasnβt your fault.β
Upon hearing Yang Kaiβs statement, Duan Yuan Shan said with a smile, βBrother Yang, youβre a sensible and just man.β
βHumph, youβre only a spineless coward,β Kang Si Ran next to them spoke indignantly.
