“This is what happened…”
Li Xuan may not have been very old, but he was quite articulate. In his elaboration, he came to High Heaven Palace on Ji Ying’s orders to buy Spirit Herbs, yet he was stopped outside their gates and forced to wait bitterly for several days before someone finally came to ask what he wanted. After learning his purpose, he was beaten up directly. Not only was he wounded, but he was also robbed of all the Source Crystals he was given to buy spirit herbs with.
As he spoke, it was as if he was recalling what happened that day. Li Xuan’s face went pale and his body trembled, even wiping tears from his eyes, whether true or faked, filling his listeners with grief and indignation. In the end, his speech became clearer and clearer and his voice louder and louder. His back also straightened up as if what he said really happened to him.
Ji Ying’s face was getting uglier and uglier, but Mi Qi and Li Jiao were both feeling pleased inside. They knew that the worse Li Xuan’s experience was, the bigger the trouble there would be for High Heaven Palace and Yang Kai.
“Look at what you’ve done!”
Once Li Xuan finished speaking, Mi Qi immediately jumped out and pointed at Yang Kai in a rage, “The strong bullying the weak! As an Emperor Realm Master, not only did you lay hands on a Dao Source Realm Junior, you even shamelessly robbed him! You are simply a disgrace to all cultivators in our Northern Territory!”
Yang Kai ignored him and instead looked at Li Xuan with a smile, “Are you sure there’s nothing else you want to add?”
Li Xuan’s body trembled, and he quickly hid behind Ji Ying.
“Palace Master Yang, are you threatening my disciple?” Ji Ying looked coldly at Yang Kai.
Yang Kai shrugged, “It’s not a threat, just a question.”
“So, that means you’re admitting it?”
Yang Kai frowned and looked firmly at Ji Ying, “Grandmaster Ji, do you truly believe what your disciple said?”
Ji Ying snorted, “My disciple has been under my tutelage for ten years. I watched him grow up and know his nature very well. He is definitely not the type of person to make something out of nothing.”
Yang Kai shrugged again, “In that case, nothing I say would have any meaning.”
Ji Ying grunted, “Do you have a different story to tell?”
“No, no… I just think that Grandmaster Ji’s eyes are not very good when it comes to picking disciples.”
Ji Ying narrowed his eyes, “If there is anything you want to say in your defence, I can give it a listen. But if not… then this High Heaven Palace has no need to exist anymore. You must also return with me to Medicine Pill Valley to receive punishment!”
To be able to decide the fate of a top Sect with just mere words, only a Legacy Disciple of Wondrous Pill Great Emperors had such rights.
Yang Kai narrowed his eyes, “I am not guilty of anything!”
Ji Ying said, “Showing no regard for my Honoured Master, Wondrous Pill Great Emperor, and looking down on all the Alchemists in this world are your greatest sins!”
Yang Kai raised his voice, “If all disciples of the Wondrous Pill Great Emperor are as rotten as you are, and as cunning as Li Xuan, then this Palace Master really does not have any regard for him. And what of Medicine Pill Valley? Your so-called holy land is clearly nothing more than a cesspool of wanton wastes and degenerates!”
Ji Ying’s face changed dramatically, “Impudence!”
Yang Kai looked at him with disdain, “I’m impudent, and so what? Come and bite me if you have the ability to do so!”
“You…” Ji Ying pointed his finger at Yang Kai. He really wanted to go up and bite him to death, but despite having Second-Order Emperor Realm cultivation, he was ultimately an Alchemist. He had very little experience fighting people, so he could not take that risk.
Eyes sweeping to the side, Mi Qi and Li Jiao understood and both pushed their Emperor Qi in preparation to pounce.
At that moment, three astonishing Monster Qi auras suddenly erupted. Three figures flickered in from outside the hall, standing in front of Mi Qi and Li Jiao.
“You want to make a move? Try it if you dare!” Xi Lei cracked his fists as he looked darkly at the men before him.
Mi Qi and Li Jiao were both shocked and instantly froze in place, both feeling on edge.
Even though they knew that there were Monster Race Masters in High Heaven Palace, and that these Masters were involved in the destruction of Seeking Passion Sect, they never thought that there would actually be three Monster Kings here!
In a two against three, they had no chance of winning. Not to mention, there was still that girl called Qing’er among their ranks.
That woman was able to send Mi Qi flying with a single punch, so her strength could only be greater than these three Monster Kings!
This place was a dragon cave and tiger den all in one!
Where did High heaven Palace find all these incredible Masters? With this level of heritage, they were almost on par with a Great Emperor Sect, only lacking a Great Emperor to assume command.
Ji Ying felt chills over his body at that moment. How many years had it been since he last encountered such danger? The Monster Qi rolling over him was almost suffocating, but he was still the disciple of a Great Emperor after all and his mental strength and cultivation were not just for show. Though his expression turned grave, he did not panic.
