Β
Everyone in Yang Kaiβs mansion went on high alert when they heard Old Demonβs shout.
Β
When Yang Kai arrived at the place where the ruckus originated, he found that it was once again not far from the Pill Room, but this time there were three layers of people surrounding the scene, all of them fully circulating their True Qi, each of them on high alert as they stared towards the centre of the circle.
Β
When they noticed the arrival of Yang Kai, everyone gave way and allowed him to pass.
Β
Yang Kai nodded lightly and calmly looked inward.
Β
At the centre of the encirclement the, Qiu Yi Meng stood next to Old Demon, her eyes staring with curiosity and horror at what lay before her.
Β
βYoung Master, that person came!β Β Old Demon looked a little excited, saying so as he pointed towards his captive.
Β
Yang Kaiβs eyes followed Old Demonβs finger and saw a few meters away a number of red lights rising from the ground, like red iron columns, forming a circular cage. Β Within the cage was a figure that repeatedly attacked the red bars but seemed unable to break them or escape.
Β
Everyone stared in amazement; even Qiu Yi Meng was extremely surprised.
Β
Because this figure wrapped in red lights was almost transparent, if one didnβt look carefully they wouldnβt have even noticed it. Β This figure moved fluidly, like a clear stream of water flowing through the air, distorting oneβs view of the opposite side when they looked through it.
Β
Even until now, no one had seen the true appearance of this figure.
Β
This kind of concealment technique had completely exceeded everyoneβs scope of understanding!
Β
Ying Jiu was also a master of stealth and assassination and had the ability to blur his image, but he did so by using a special technique where he circulated his True Qi in a specific way to avoid peopleβs perception.
Β
On the other hand, this mysterious personβs method was quite different, everyone could tell she was clearly there, but they still could see right through her!
Β
After only a glimpse, Yang Kai realized he had still underestimated this mysterious masterβs methods.
Β
This mysterious master in the cultivation of stealth appeared before Yang Kai twice.Β However, each time, she would manage to slip away without him managing to even catch a glimpse of her.Β It was only by chance, back on their second encounter in Po Jing Lake, that Yang Kai managed to get one strand of her hair. Furthermore, thanks to Old Demonβs own methods, Yang Kai could pass him the task of locating her using this strand of hair.
Β
It wasnβt until today that his efforts had paid off; Old Demon had noticed the aura of this mysterious master and then proceeded to trap her here.
Β
Even though she was trapped, she didnβt seem to be worried at all, just walking around in the small light cage faintly staring out at the surrounding crowd, as if she was observing them, just like they were observing her.
Β
βHmβ¦ a woman?β Β Qiu Yi Meng called out in surprise, she clearly saw the two bulges on this figureβs chest and although it was just a glimpse, it at least confirmed her gender.
Β
βGirl, reveal yourself.β Β Yang Kai face became serious, lightly ordering.
Β
The opposite party remained indifferent and didnβt answer, not showing up, just standing there quietly, Yang Kai even felt her eyes staring at him.
Β
βI just have some questions to ask, I hope that you can comply!β Yang Kai frowned.
Β
However, there was still no reply.
Β
Yang Kaiβs expression became impatient. Β He didnβt know why this person had attempted to sneak into the Pill Room twice, and he didnβt know which faction she belonged to, but if such a master was left alone, he was afraid that everyone in the house would feel uneasy. Β Moreover, seeing her absolute refusal to cooperate, Yang Kai felt it was useless to say any more.
Β
βIβll give you ten breaths of time to appear, think about it!β Β Yang Kaiβs tone became solemn as he quietly waited.
Soon, ten breaths passed.
Β
Yang Kai slowly shook his head and stared at the transparent figure, coldly ordering, βDo it, if she dares to resist, it doesnβt matter if you kill her!β
Β
Old Demon cackled wildly and stepped forward. Β At the same time the figure trapped by the red light beams apparently hadnβt thought that Yang Kai would be so ruthless, her figure solidifying for a brief moment before quickly fading again.
Β
βBind!β Β Old Demon shouted, causing the red light cage to pulse with a strange energy and contract towards the trapped figure inside.
Β
βHeng, you think this is enough to capture me?β Β Just as the red lights were about to bind the woman, she suddenly spoke.
Β
When her voice reached their ears, everyoneβs expression suddenly changed.
Β
It wasnβt that this sound was grating or difficult to listen to, but ratherβ¦ it was quite soft and tender.
Β
As a person grew older, not only does their physical shape change, but there are also subtle changes in their appearance and tone of voice. Β Older people tend to have a more mature sound than those of the younger generation.
Β
But the voice of this mysterious master was very tender and crisp, listening to her voice alone; everyone immediately felt that she could be no older than twenty.
Β
Think this, everyone shook their heads secretly.
Β
It was impossible for a less than twenty year old girl to have such incredible strength! Β Qiu Yi Meng was twenty-two this year and had just reached the Immortal Ascension Boundary First Stage.
Β
Liu Qing Yao was even older.
Β
Was it possible this young womanβs aptitude was far superior to even Qiu Yi Meng and Liu Qing Yaoβs? Β Or perhaps her voice was just naturally soft in tone; everyone had their own guesses.
Β
As soon as the mysterious woman spoke, the complacent look on Old Demonβs face suddenly disappeared and without hesitation he quickly retrieved something from his sleeve pocket.
Β
At the same time, with a light giggle, the figure of the woman surrounded by red lights suddenly burst.
Β
Yang Kai leapt forward and shot out his palm in an attempt to seize her.
Β
He had already witnessed this scene twice, and each time this mysterious master had escaped like this.
Β
As his hand reached his target, Yang Kai only caught a trace of mist and the woman once again disappeared right before everyoneβs eyes.
Β
The entire room was stunned silent!
Β
Not only the various young geniuses, but many Immortal Ascension Boundary masters and several of the Yang Family Blood Warriors were present, yet none of them understood how this person had escaped.
Β
On the other hand, Old Demonβs face filled with excitement. He squeezes the things he just took out and filled it with his True Qi, causing it to slowly light up.
Β
βCapture!β Β Old Demon snorted, and the thing in his hand turned into a stream of light that shot off into the distance, flying towards some unknown place in War City at an incredible speed.
Β
βHee heh, this old master knew she would use this trick!β Β Old Demon smiled smugly as the stream of light disappeared.
Β
βHow sure are you?β Β Yang Kai asked. He too hadnβt seen clearly what Old Demon had just taken out, but he felt it should be the light blue hair he had given him last time.
Β
βThis old masterβs methods, wellβ¦ just wait and see.β Β Old Demon said with great confidence.
Β
Yang Kai nodded lightly while the several Blood Warriors looked at Old Demon incredulously. Β Β They werenβt inexperienced people, but the various means and methods Old Demon had displayed were all completely foreign to them; they couldnβt help wondering exactly who Old Demon was and where he came from.
Β
War City, Wind Inn, inside a single room, a young girl slowly opened her beautiful eyes and smacked her red mouth, muttering to herself, βHow vexing, actually setting up such a big trap for me. Shameless! Β I didnβt want to do anything bad, I just wanted to look for someone, and yetβ¦ hmph!β
Β
The three times she had met that youth who seemed to be even younger than her, were all able to be perceived by him. This fact made her upset.
Β
In such a backward and barbaric land, how could there be such a powerful young man? Β Although his strength was quite low, if he wasnβt born here but instead came from the land she was from, he would probably accomplish some big things; however, since he was born here, his future achievements would probably be quite limited.
Β
Thinking so, the girlβs mood suddenly became better as she gloated somewhat about Yang Kaiβs humble origins.
Β
*Xiu xiuβ¦*
Β
Suddenly hearing a burst of wind, the girlβs skin went tight as a feeling of danger swept over her, causing a chill to shoot up her spine, suddenly becoming uneasy.
Β
Before she could even understand what was happening, the window flung open and a stream of light flew in.
Β
The light flew towards her and struck her directly.
Β
βAhβ¦β Β The girl was caught off guard and she fell to the ground in shock, but when she climbed back up, the stream of light had disappeared.
Β
Quickly checking herself, she found that her body had no trace of injuries but indistinctly she felt that she was missing something!
Β
What was missing? Β The girl checked several times but didnβt discover anything out of place, shaking her head helplessly as her red lips pouted, quite puzzled about what just happened.
Β
Yang Kai House, everyone had already dispersed.
Β
Only Old Demon and Yang Kai stayed behind.
Β
The master and the servant were quietly waiting.
Β
A short time later, the stream of light returned and Old Demon reached out and caught it, grinning as he said, βYoung Master, if you please!β
Β
While speaking, he handed over the thing he caught.
Β
Picking it up, Yang Kai looked it over carefully and couldnβt help laughing.
Β
He had only caught a glimpse of it before and hadnβt paid attention to what Old Demon crafted from that womanβs hair, but now that he saw it, it seemed to be a doll!
Β
Old Demon actually had this kind of skill! Β The doll made from the hair had blurry facial features and its appearance was quite generic, obviously it was just a rough work.
Β
But at this moment, this little doll exuded a faint glow and there seemed to be a faint energy circulating within it.
Β
βYoung Master, this is old servantβs special Soul Binding Curse! Β This doll has been connected with that little girlβs Spiritual Essence. Β As long as you manipulate this doll, no matter how far away that girl is, be it thousands or even tens of thousands of kilometers, she will experience the same thing.β
Β
βWhat happens if I twist off this thingβs head?β Β Yang Kai glanced over at Old Demon.
Β
βThat girl will die!β Β Old Demon smirked, βIt can beΒ said that she is now completely under Young Masterβs control!β
Β
βNot bad!β Yang Kaiβs wore a smile, obviously quite satisfied.
Β
Old Demon grinned and nodded, βThis seems to be how Old Servant used to control his minions, on that day, seeing that hair, I suddenly remembered.β
Β
βSo, it seems your previous days werenβt very kind to you. Having to use this method to control your henchmen, who would be willing to serve you?β
Β
βWell, this was old servantβs last resort.β
Β
Yang Kai shook his head and stopped discussing the problem, instead turning his attention to the doll, extending his finger and gently flicking its forehead.
