Caught by surprise, the force shook Yang Kaiβs focus slightly. It was just as Hua Yu Lu had explained, the power of the Soul Summoning Drum was not that great, and for that reason, it failed to break through the defences in Yang Kaiβs Knowledge Sea. It also went without saying that part of the reason for its weak power was that she had failed to completely refine the artifact and was unable to fully bring out its true strength as a result. Even so, it was already very impressive.
βWhat an impressive item!β After getting a taste of the Soul Summoning Drumβs power himself, Yang Kai couldnβt help praising it.
Yang Kai then asked, βYou acquired the Soul Summoning Drum when the three of you went exploring. So, what did the other two get?β
βIt can even make a personβs cultivation skyrocket!?β Yang Kai was stunned.
If it was said that Yang Kai only agreed to explore the Ancient Cave Mansion with Hua Yu Lu out of respect for Xia Sheng before, it was now because he truly became interested at this moment.
βIf you are interested in this endeavour, then letβs meet at the Southern Swamp in two months. What do you think, Elder Yang?β Hua Yu Lu looked at Yang Kai.
The two of them exchanged the means to contact each other on the spot, leaving their Soul Imprints on each otherβs communication artifacts, which would allow them to communicate freely as long as they were not too far away from each other.
βThen, this matter is settled. Please take good care of Xiao Hua, Junior Brother.β Xia Sheng smiled faintly.
Xia Sheng seemed calm and indifferent, while on the other hand, Hua Yu Lu blushed furiously and secretly sneaked a glance at Xia Sheng before revealing a slightly disappointed expression. Yang Kai took in the entire situation in front of him and vaguely understood the relationship between those two afterwards.
βDonβt worry!β Xia Sheng spoke in a serious tone, βI will periodically check up on her.β
Stunned, Hua Yu Lu nodded, βOf course. Do you want to check into it, Elder Yang? I can draw it out for you.β
Nodding, she immediately took out a blank jade slip and poured her Divine Sense into it, engraving what she saw the other day inside. Then, she handed the jade slip to Yang Kai and said, βThis is the barrier. Itβs probably an ancient Spirit Array, but unfortunately, I donβt understand much about Spirit Arrays and canβt tell much from just observing it. I did carefully memorize it though, so there should be no mistakes.β
βI donβt know much about Spirit Arrays either, but I can ask others about it,β Yang Kai smiled.
The Heavenly River Valley Gong Family was the most highly regarded Spirit Array force in the Southern Territory, while Hua Yu Lu was not an ignorant Junior either. It was impossible to fully trust the other two Emperor Realm Masters; therefore, it was a given that she would need to learn more about this Spirit Array if she wanted to crack it and enter the deeper parts of the Ancient Cave Mansion. For that reason, the Heavenly River Valley Gong Family was her best choice.
βLeave this to me, Palace Master Hua. You should rest well for the next two months. Iβll see you again at the Southern Swamp at the appointed time.β
As soon as Yang Kai left, Xia Sheng stood up and said, βXiao Hua, please make yourself at home. Iβm going out for a bit.β
Xia Shengβs brow twitched slightly as he replied, βWhy would I be afraid of you? Itβs just that if I donβt work hard to cultivate, I wonβt be able to maintain my seat as the Eldest Senior Brother for long.β
βSmelly man!β Hua Yu Lu puffed up her cheeks in anger, feeling very upset. The host had left, so what was the point of the guest remaining? Thus, she could only follow his example and depart, leaving behind a lingering floral scent of perfume.
Yang Kai stayed at an inn in Spirit Lake City for three days before Bian Yu Qing came looking for him. She was brimming with energy at the moment and her aura was strong and steady. Their eyes met inside the room, and Yang Kai nodded lightly, βNot bad.β
In truth, she was quite shocked as well. She had assumed that she wouldnβt feel as pressured when facing Yang Kai again now that she was also an Emperor Realm Master, but contrary to her expectations, she realized she could not figure out his depths even meeting this time. If she had not known that he was a First-Order Emperor, she might have assumed he was a Third-Order Emperor instead. But why was the gap still so massive between them?
βI understand. Many thanks for your guidance, Palace Master.β Bian Yu Qing replied honestly but still couldnβt help feeling a little awkward. A decade or so ago, she had stood far above this young man; however, their roles were now reversed. She was also only able to survive and become an Emperor Realm Master thanks to Yang Kai. Just thinking back on the past, it really was quite embarrassing.
Bian Yu Qing smilingly replied, βCould it be that you donβt want me to join High Heaven Palace, Palace Master?β
With that, they left Spirit Lake City and flew off in a certain direction without stopping. During their journey, Bian Yu Qing constantly worked hard to stabilize her cultivation, and after two days of travel, the effects of her efforts were apparent as her aura was significantly more restrained than before.
βIβm sending you back to High Heaven Palace!β Yang Kai replied.
The Northern Territory and the Southern Territory were separated by a distance of billions of kilometres! Flying without stopping would take them several years to arrive, and if they were delayed during their journey, a decade-long trip would not be surprising!
Three days went by in such a fashion before the pair arrived at a desolate and dilapidated place.
βIndeed!β
She seemed to be feeling nostalgic about something. Looking at the ruins of the Thousand Leaves Sect, she inevitably recalled the Blue Feather Sect. Both Sects had about the same strength, and their endings were practically no different either.
βGet on!β While she was in a trance, Yang Kai called out to her. He was already standing on the Space Array in the hidden mountain valley, and although Bian Yu Qing found this strange, she obediently followed suit and stood on the Space Array.
Yang Kai nodded and explained, βOnce you pass through here, you will arrive at High Heaven Palace. I have three jade slips for you to bring back with you.β
Yang Kai replied, βGive one to somebody by the name of Hua Qing Si. She is the Head Manager of High Heaven Palace and is responsible for all affairs in the palace. Just hand this jade slip to her and she will take good care of you. As for the other two jade slips, ask Hua Qing Si to pass them to Nanmen Da Jun. Understood?β
βGood. Go on then!β Yang Kai motioned for her to step onto the array.
For a moment, Yang Kai thought he vaguely saw Bian Yu Qing opening her mouth slightly as if to thank him just before she vanished, to which he just smiled brightly and turned around to leave Emperor Heaven Valley.
