Yang Kai simply stood there and watched quietly.
Ye Qing Si smiled brightly, while the others who had some friendship with him didn’t show the slightest aversion. Only a few people who were less familiar had a trace on their faces.
Yang Kai had just killed Bi Xiu Ming and decisively executed Bi Xiu Ming’s Junior Brother. This ruthless cutting of weeds and pulling out roots initially made many of them uncomfortable, but in the end they were all people who were more or less stained in blood, so they all understood Yang Kai’s methods, and at the moment did not show any hostility, apparently having accepted his actions as reasonable.
Bi Xiu Ming and his Junior Brother these past days were constantly whining and dampening morale, so they were already quite unpopular, not to mention they had both acted far too despicably just now. The group could clearly distinguish between right and wrong here and naturally would not blame Bi Xiu Ming and his Junior Brother’s deaths on Yang Kai.
In this place, where one’s own life was constantly at risk, who would concern themselves with the deaths of strangers? For these two reprehensible people, their deaths were clearly in vain!
Chen Xue Shu and Su Xiao Yu both walked up to Yang Kai, and each handed over a big pile of Blood Beads, “These are all the Blood Beads from the previous fight, as well as the ones that Yao He and Yao Xi obtained from killing her Monstrous Beast’s, a total of eighty two, please accept them Brother Yang.”
Zi Mo’s thirty or forty Monster Beasts had been slaughtered without resistance, along with the beasts who were freed from Yao He and Yao Xi’s control which they had just killed. This battle had indeed yielded a huge harvest.
Yang Kai looked at him for a moment but eventually did not decline. He reached out and accepted all of these Blood Beads.
Although the Monster Beasts had been killed by everyone, if not for Yang Kai’s efforts in putting on such a good show, how could any of them have regained their freedom? Compared to these Blood Beads, being able to escape Yao He and Yao Xi’s control was a far greater gain. Moreover, after the battle, Yang Kai had also freely distributed healing pills to them, so giving these to him could be considered returning the favour.
“These are the Blood Beads of those four. All of them are condensed from True Element cultivators.” Ye Qing Si also smiled warmly and placed the four much higher quality Blood Beads into Yang Kai’s hands.
Watching Yang Kai harvest so many benefits all at once, many people were quite envious. However, no matter how jealous they were, no one made any effort to snatch them for themselves. None of them wanted to display an ungrateful attitude. Yang Kai glanced around at this scene and secretly nodded to himself and laid down his worries that there might be others like Bi Xiu Ming and his Junior Brother.
Chen Xue Shu nodded strongly before cupping his fists and bowing, “Thank you, Brother Yang for saving my life. This debt of gratitude shall forever be remembered. If there is a chance to repay you in the future, I will definitely not hesitate!”
More than a dozen people quickly followed and also cupped their fists.
Yang Kai also politely responded to the group’s sincerity.
No one mentioned the matter of Bi Xiu Ming’s death. Even if everyone here left here alive, none of them would even bother reporting such a minor incident. In this isolated world, someone dying was all too normal. As long as no one disclosed that it was Yang Kai who killed Bi Xiu Ming, then naturally his Sect wouldn’t come find trouble with him.
This fact was never discussed, but was tacitly understood by everyone here.
The atmosphere gradually became harmonious, and the original existence of some minor barriers and fear between them instantly vanished. The only awkward point was how everyone viewed Zi Mo.
If she were a Great Han Dynasty cultivator, all of them would simply smile and put down their grievances, and that would be the end of it. However, Zi Mo was a Tian Lang Dynasty cultivator, and had previously attack all of them, so the situation was far more complex. Even if some genuinely wanted to reconcile, many would still have some scruples.
It was natural that there would be some rejection towards a foreigner!
(PewPewLaserGun: Ahhh racisim ☺)
Zi Mo wasn’t stupid, so she understood this point clearly and quietly stood to the side by herself.
After chatting for a while, Yang Kai suddenly looked at Chen Xue Shu, “Brother Chen, is there something else you want to ask?”
Chen Xue Shu actions and appearance had lead him to conclude this.
The instant Chen Xue Shu heard this, he immediately burst into a wry smile, “We really do have another matter we’d like to ask about.”
“Go ahead!”
Chen Xue Shu reached out and covered his own dantian, “The insects inside us… are they still alive?”
Yao He and Yao Xi were dead, but the Soul Controlling Insects they had left behind were a big concern for the Great Han Dynasty cultivators. Li Xin Yuan from the Pure Heart Palace even had the one inside him drill into his dantian, causing it to break, so his Junior Brother Zuo Fang had to constantly assist him. Who knew who might be next?
Yang Kai turned to his eyes towards Zi Mo and silently inquired, but in the end Zi Mo just said indifferently, “Yes, they’re still alive inside your bodies.”
Everyone’s expression suddenly went bitter as they looked towards Zi Mo helplessly.
