Saying so, they lifted Yang Kai and ran away, without caring about whether he was willing or not.
“Holy Son?” Yang Kai’s confusion grew.
Although the cultivation of these two people was not as good as the scar-faced man, their strength and movement skills were still impressive for their Realm. As arrows rained down from behind, the two of them cooperated seamlessly, blocking attacks while carrying Yang Kai as they fled into the distance.
Soon, a furious roar came from behind them, “Zuo Wu You, you court death!”
“You all came for me, didn’t you? Well then, let’s fight to the death here!”
“I’ll hold him off, you guys run!”
“No one is leaving!” The scar-faced youth, Zuo Wu You, roared.
Immediately, a fierce battle broke out behind them.
Yang Kai furrowed his brow, looking at the situation with confusion. He wanted to inquire about it, but this was clearly not a good time.
The title of ‘Holy Son’ also caught his attention.
He had only come to this mysterious and unknowable place to investigate the hidden hand left by Mu, but he never expected to be swept into Mu’s Space-Time River and end up in this independent World, where his strength was greatly suppressed.
As a Ninth-Order Master, he was not easily suppressed by the laws of any unfamiliar World; however, in this place, he could only exert the strength of a cultivator in the True Element Boundary.
This meant that a stronger force was acting in this place, surpassing his Ninth-Order power.
[This must be Mu’s doing!]
Swift as the wind, Yang Kai was dragged along by the two young men as they moved forward quickly. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he checked the item in his palm that Wu Kuang had given him before entering this mysterious place.
He hadn’t had a chance to look at it before, but now he noticed that it was a jade pendant, carved in the shape of a person that vaguely resembled Wu Kuang and carried a wisp of his aura.
[This is…] Yang Kai had a rough idea of what this item was for.
Then, he suddenly spoke up, “You two can put me down. I can walk on my own.”
Although he didn’t know where they were or what had happened, being chased was definitely not a pleasant experience. The two young men should be on his side as they were carrying him and running as fast as they could from the pursuers. Though their speed was somewhat affected, running faster would certainly help them shake off their pursuers.
As he spoke, Yang Kai shook lightly and broke free from their grasp.
The two youths were clearly surprised and pleased to see that Yang Kai had such strength.
Then, the youth on the left apologised, “We acted hastily and didn’t handle things appropriately. Please forgive us, Holy Son.”
“Uh…” Yang Kai waved his hand nonchalantly, “It’s fine.”
Later, the young man on the right said, “I didn’t expect Holy Son to be so powerful. It seems we can get away from them now.”
As they spoke, they continued to rush forward.
“What about the guy, Zuo… Wu You, should we not worry about him?” Yang Kai remembered the scar-faced young man who remained behind.
“Big Brother Zuo is very strong, and he has a divine sword bestowed by the Saintess. Without an Immortal Ascension Realm Master, those wastes can’t do anything to him.”
[Saintess?]
Yang Kai wondered what her role in all of this was.
But with just a few words, he confirmed that the Martial Dao of this World was not much different from what he knew, even the names were the same. Moreover, this World had Immortal Ascension Realm Masters! The only difference was that there were three Stages instead of nine.
As they fled for their lives, it was not convenient to say much. The two young men were initially worried that Yang Kai could not keep up with their speed, so they did not use their full strength at first. However, as time passed and they tested him, they found that no matter how profound their Movement Skills were, this Holy Son, who had descended from the sky, could keep up with them effortlessly.
So, they let loose and ran at full speed. After about an hour, they reached a mountain wall, where one of them took out a jade ornament and pressed it against the wall, which opened a kind of portal.
It seemed that this was their hiding place.
The three of them entered one after another, and the portal closed again.
There was a space that was just the right size inside the mountain, and the space had clearly been lived in before.
After everything was settled, the two young men who led Yang Kai here breathed a sigh of relief.
There was no need to worry about anything now that they were here.
Yang Kai stood with his hands behind his back, surveying his surroundings. Suddenly, the two young men fell to one knee and bowed, “Greetings, Holy Son!”
“En…” Yang Kai hesitated for a moment before reaching out to help the two young men up, “I still haven’t figured out what’s going on here, and I have no idea who this ‘Holy Son’ is that you speak of. Are you sure you haven’t mistaken me for someone else?”
The thin youth replied, “We have not made a mistake. You are indeed the Holy Son of the Spirit Religion; of course, the final determination will be made by the Saintess herself.”
Yang Kai was confused, “But we’ve never met before today. How can you be so sure?”
The two exchanged a glance before the thin one explained, “It is said that one day, a crack will appear in the sky and a man will fall from it. He will spark the light and rip apart the shackles of darkness to defeat the ultimate enemy.”
“And that person will be the one who leads the Spirit Religion into the light.”
“That person is the Holy Son of the Spirit Religion.”
[Descend from the sky…]
Yang Kai realised that they were probably talking about him; after all, he had indeed fallen from a crack in the sky in a rather undignified manner. It was surprising to find that their prophecy matched up with his own experience.
