Thinking so, the Monster Race cultivator slightly shook his wrist and the whip he originally sent straight towards Yang Kai deviated slightly, hitting the air and making a loud cracking sound.
Since he could not figure out Yang Kai’s depths, he didn’t dare to act rashly. On the other hand, he needed to maintain Young Lord Mi Tian’s face; after all, all the Monster Race masters here had knelt down to salute Mi Tian, but a trivial human actually remained standing. This was unacceptable.
This was a naked display of contempt towards Mi Tian as well as an insult to the Monster Race as a whole.
As such, this Monster Race cultivator was at a loss for a moment, not knowing what to do, quickly turning his eyes to Mi Tian for help.
“Human, you’re quite bold. You dare refuse to kneel in the presence of this Young Lord?” Mi Tian smiled softly, seemingly harmless to humans and animals alike, but everyone could clearly hear the contempt in his words.
Mi Tian’s distinguished status and superb strength gave him the qualifications to act this way though.
[This human boy’s fate would surely be miserable!] Many cultivators thought so and some could not help directing looks of sympathy towards Yang Kai.
Most in the crowd, however, were just taking pleasure in another’s misfortune. With Yang Kai attracting Mi Tian’s attention, perhaps even the notorious Young Master Wicked Eyes would not have any extra energy to pay attention to the various beautiful women in Shimmering Moon City.
Thinking so, many people felt grateful to Yang Kai and quietly pressed down the heads of the beautiful women next to them to prevent them from revealing their faces.
“Kneel?” Yang Kai chuckled, undauntedly meeting eyes with Mi Tian and asking, “Why?”
[This shameless Monster Race boy actually wants me to kneel?] Yang Kai had rarely heard such wild words.
In all honesty, Yang Kai didn’t want to stir up trouble on Monster Emperor Star, so if Mi Tian pretended not to see him and simply let this incident pass, things would have been fine, but now that conflict seemed inevitable, Yang Kai was naturally not going to back down.
“Because you’re human!” Mi Tian sneered, releasing an aggressive air, “Humans must kneel down when they see this Young Lord!”
As if feeling their master’s anger, the Thunder Flame Flying Lizards pulling the carriage became violent and turned their gazes towards Yang Kai while spraying hot air from their nostrils, their eyes filling with a bloodthirsty and cruel light.
The complexions of the people around Yang Kai changed drastically, and without hesitation, all of them scattered away, not daring to remain close to him, fearing that after the city gate caught fire, the fish in the moat would be affected.
In an instant, with Yang Kai as its centre, a hundred-metre radius had become free of all others.
Yang Kai became more and more conspicuous.
“Human, on Monster Emperor Star, you’d better not act so presumptuous, otherwise you’ll pay a heavy price!” Mi Tian looked at Yang Kai indifferently. Even the two stunning women who were fawning on Mi Tian glared at Yang Kai, as if blaming him for his rudeness.
“Monster Emperor Star is my Monster Race’s territory, as for you humans… En, it’s best if you humans keep your heads lowered and remain obedient. However, this Young Lord is not a petty man. Since this is your first offence, I can treat it as if I never saw anything. Kneel down and this Young Lord will spare your life!” Mi Tian pointed his finger downwards and declared in an imposing manner.
“And if I don’t?” Yang Kai’s eyes flashed a cold light as he stared back at Mi Tian with a smile.
“You have no choice!” Mi Tian coldly snorted.
As soon as he spoke these words, the Thunder Flame Flying Lizard on the left suddenly opened its jaw and a ball of flames wrapped in arcs of lightning shot out towards Yang Kai.
Feeling the horrific killing power of this thunder-fireball, many cultivators were shocked.
Although most of them had heard about the terrible power of Thunder Flame Flying Lizards before, few had seen one with their own eyes. Today was an eye-opening experience for them.
No wonder Second-Order Origin Returning Realm cultivators had no choice but to flee when they encountered a Thunder Flame Flying Lizard. This thunder-fireball alone could not be resisted by ordinary Origin Returning Realm masters.
As the terrifying thunder-fireball rushed towards his face, Yang Kai simply stood in place, as if unaware of the approaching danger. It was not until the thunder-fireball was right in front of him that he lifted his hand and grabbed towards it.
[Courting death!] Many cultivators who saw this scene had such thoughts in their hearts.
The attack of a Thunder Flame Flying Lizard was not so easily dealt with. It seemed there was something wrong with this boy’s head, trying to take this attack head-on with nothing but his body. No wonder he dared challenge Mi Tian.
A shocking scene appeared next, however.
When Yang Kai hand grasped the thunder-fireball, instead of him being directly burned to ashes as everyone expected, the thunder-fireball froze in place.
An extremely mysterious force burst forth at that instant, and in a flash, as if it was somehow being deflated, the terrifying thunder-fireball shrank at an extremely rapid pace until it finally disappeared.
Yang Kai stood in place, completely unharmed.
Gasps sounded from all around.
Mi Tian also finally sat up, pushing the woman who was half lying on his lap out of the way as a look of interest flashed across his eyes.
“Not bad, a Second-Order Origin Returning Realm!” Mi Tian grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, “No wonder you dare act so rampant, it turns out you have some small skill!”
The moment Yang Kai acted, Mi Tian was able to detect Yang Kai’s cultivation.
The Second-Order Origin Returning Realm was not weak on Monster Emperor Star, not to mention that this boy was a human!
Monster Emperor Star was dominated by the Monster Race, and although there were abundant materials and World Energy here, Origin Realm masters rarely emerged among humans, as those with high aptitude were generally strangled in the cradle.
The Monster Race wouldn’t allow Human Race masters to rise up. They allow humans to survive because they fancied the unique talents of the Human Race, but how could they permit the Human Race an opportunity to oppose the Monster Race’s hegemony?
So, after realizing that Yang Kai was a Second-Order Origin Returning Realm cultivator, Mi Tian suddenly became interested. Standing up on his carriage, he waved his hand and coldly ordered, “Kill him!”
The two Ninth-Order Monster Beasts immediately became violent as they stood upright, opened their mouths, and gathered flame and lightning in preparation to attack.
A panic ensued at the city gates as most of the cultivators gathered quickly fled.
Yang Kai let out a defiant laugh as he shouted, “Two mere beasts dare act wild before me!”
Golden light flashed, and under the control of Yang Kai’s Divine Sense, two Golden Blood Threads shot out like arrows towards the Thunder Flame Flying Lizards.
Two pillars of fire spurted from the mouths of the Thunder Flame Flying Lizards, greeting the Golden Blood Threads head-on; however, these flame jets were unable to even impede the speed of the Golden Blood Thread’s charge. The flames which caused everyone else to pale in fright were actually unable to even damage the Golden Blood Threads.
In the blink of an eye, the Golden Blood Threads shot into the Thunder Flame Flying Lizards’ mouths.
The next moment, the two Ninth-Order Monster Beasts roared as their massive bodies swayed from side to side, colliding with and collapsing all the nearby buildings.
The Golden Blood Threads which had rushed into their abdomens were still under Yang Kai’s control and were now wantonly cutting into these two beasts’ bodies, causing unimaginable damage and pain to them.
Yang Kai did not remain idle either as his figure flickered and rushed out, instantly arriving in the air above one of the Thunder Flame Flying Lizard’s heads and sending out a punch.
This punch seemed like a casual strike without any hidden power and mystery behind it.
