The expression on the face of the middle-aged man that had approached them changed abruptly. He hastily curled his hand into a fist, gathered his Emperor Qi, and threw a punch out to meet Yang Kaiβs palm. When the two attacks met one another, the middle-aged manβs aura deflated like a punctured sack and with a muffled snort he was forced back several steps before finally managing to steady himself.
Hou Yu was stunned and stared at Yang Kaiβs back in a daze. For a moment, she thought that he was amazing. [I didnβt see wrongly, right? How can a First-Order Emperor Realm Master be so powerful? Da Jun and I are both First-Order Emperors too, but we could barely breathe under the pressure of that attack. On the other hand, Palace Master managed to repel the enemy with just a casual palm!]
βAre you all one group?β The middle-aged man immediately recognized Yang Kai and Nanmen Da Jun; after all, he had greeted these two when they first arrived on the island just two days ago. [The other guy claimed that they were debt collectors back then, and I naively believed them. From the looks of it, they are not creditors but accomplices of that wicked woman!]
[I might not be his opponent if it really comes down to a fight.] Changing his mind, he regained his composure and shouted, βNo matter what, you need to pay up or pay with your life, woman!β
With so many people standing next to him, the fear the middle-aged man felt in his heart reduced slightly. He might not be a match for that young man on his own, but with so many people on his side, how could they be defeated? A lone tiger cannot defeat a pack of wolves, just as two fists cannot defend against four strikes. No matter how powerful the other party was, he was still just one man.
βIs everybody here now?β Yang Kai smiled slightly as he swept his gaze across the crowd before looking back to the middle-aged man. He then said unhurriedly, βRepaying oneβs debts is a matter of course. I will pay off all her debts on her behalf.β
βI will pay it off no matter how much she owes!β Yang Kai said lightly.
Nanmen Da Jun glanced at her and smiled deviously, βWhat does it matter to you? Palace Master is going to help you pay off all your debts this time and will then deduct it from your monthly salary in the future. In that case, you will probably be stuck in High Heaven Palace for the rest of your life.β
Nanmen Da Jun continued to smile coldly as he pulled his arm out of her grasp.
βMay I ask who Your Excellency is?β The middle-aged man frowned as he stared at Yang Kai, βYou have such impressive strength and even dare to boast so grandly; you cannot be an unknown character!β
However, Nanmen Da Jun cut in and introduced to the crowd, βThis is the Palace Master of High Heaven Palace, Yang Kai. Iβm sure youβre familiar with the name, right?β
βHigh Heaven Palaceβs Palace Master?!β
βI heard that the Palace Master of High Heaven Palace is a young man; moreover, his cultivation is just First-Order Emperor Realm. From the looks of itβ¦β
Upon hearing Nanmen Da Junβs introduction, this group of debt collectors was quite shocked. They drew in deep breaths of cold air while simultaneously re-evaluating Yang Kai. Meanwhile, the middle-aged manβs expression turned dark and cold sweat began beading on his forehead. It turned out that this young man was none other than the famous Palace Master of High Heaven Palace, whose name had spread across the entire Northern Territory recently!
High Heaven Palace was capable of annihilating a deep-rooted behemoth such as the Seeking Passion Sect. From that alone, one could imagine who astonishing the strength of High Heaven Palace was. It was even rumoured that three Monster Kings were guarding the Sect. Furthermore, the Sect Master of Seeking Passion Sect, Feng Xuan, had also been killed without even the chance to resist.
Now, it would seem as if High Heaven Palace was not just relying on the power of the three Monster Kings to establish itself. Despite how young the Palace Master was, he was a formidable person too. He only had a First-Order Emperor Realm cultivation, yet he easily managed to suppress a Master one Minor Realm higher. This was not something many people across the entire Star Boundary can do. Fortunately, the conflict between them wasnβt great; otherwise, he might have to escape the Northern Territory after this incident concluded.
Upon seeing his actions, the others quickly mirrored him. They cupped their fists and greeted Yang Kai, not daring to show any disrespect.
(Tl note: Xiao Hou is a more intimate way of calling Hou Yu. Itβs literally Little Hou)
Those debts were essentially gambling debts and not debts from righteous transactions. Hence, they would lose more than they gained if they offended High Heaven Palace over something like that. Even so, they could not bring themselves to refuse the repayment. It was not a small sum after all. For that reason, nobody dared to speak up even though Yang Kai sincerely offered to pay back the debts on Hou Yuβs behalf.
βUhβ¦ Yes, indeed!β The middle-aged man nodded in agreement. That was what he had told Yang Kai and Nanmen Da Jun two days ago.
The middle-aged man caught the Space Ring and immediately knew that the number was correct upon sweeping its contents with his Divine Sense. Now that things had come to this, he could only nod, βIt is twenty million, indeed.β
Everybody was happy that they managed to collect their debts. Among these people, the ones that arrived the earliest had spent more than a year on the island. They couldnβt even locate Hou Yu before, let alone try to collect their debts from her; hence, they couldnβt help being overjoyed by the unexpected blessing they received. Getting back their money meant that they no longer needed to suffer in this place.
The expression of the middle-aged man acting as the leader became serious as he cupped his fists and said, βPalace Master Yang, we admire your generosity. Please speak up if you have anything to ask of us.β
The rest echoed his words in unison.
Everybody was shocked by this request while Hou Yu exaggeratedly shouted, βPalace Master, please just kill me now!β
The middle-aged man let out an obvious sigh of relief and smilingly replied, βThatβs not a problem. Please rest assured, Palace Master Yang. We were not aware that thisβ¦ lady was affiliated with your High Heaven Palace. If we had knownβ¦β
Nanmen Da Jun immediately summoned his Emperor Artifact flying boat and the three of them entered. After that, the flying boat turned into a stream of light heading in the direction of High Heaven Palace.
Hou Yu looked up, nodding repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice.
Hearing this, Hou Yuβs eyes rolled back and she instantly faintedβ¦
