Shirley left, her subordinate chuckled a few times, and ordered: "If you have anything to say, don't let me wait for a long time, my temper is not good."
After speaking, he also walked out of the palace.
Only Yang Kai and An Ling'er were left in the hall.
The Saintess of the Nine Heavens Holy Land hurriedly leaned over and asked Yang Kai with a chill, expressing her concern. Yang Kai repeatedly stated that she was fine, and asked her how she is now.
An Ling'er smiled bitterly: "That senior didn't embarrass me much, he just put me around to take care of her, so don't worry about me here, but you... Why did you refuse the ransom that Gouqiong paid for us? "
"Do you think you should refuse?"
"I don't know, but Shirley is not a good person. I'm afraid there will be accidents if I stay here for a long time."
"She's not a good person, not even Gouqiong." Yang Kai snorted coldly, "I refused because I was looking for a way out."
"Ah? How do you say this?" An Ling'er was confused.
Yang Kai explained carefully: "If I accepted his ransom, it would be tantamount to owing him his life. If he has any excessive demands at that time, I won't be able to refuse it."
"But... You also saved Gouchi's life. If you count it like this, you get a pay for it. Shouldn't it be offset?"
"You are stupid." Yang Kai knocked on her forehead, "the biggest problem is here."
An Ling'er rubbed her forehead and said aggrieved: "You can make it clear, I don't think I understand."
"Hey..." Yang Kai shook his head and looked at her, sighing: "It's really not easy for you to grow up, and thanks to your Nine Heavens Holy Land that kept you in the sect, if you came out alone, you would have died. How many times have it been."
An Ling'er pouted.
"It's not bad that I saved Gouchi. This life-saving grace should have been our support to leave the Demon Frontier. But now it has become a fatal problem. Think about the identity of Gouchi. His Lao Zi is Gouqiong, a demon. Will. When she came here, didn't Shirley say that: The son of the dignified demon commander actually saved a human being..."
"The implication of this is that he shouldn't be saved by me, at least he shouldn't be a human being. If I really follow Gouqiong's wishes and let him redeem me, it won't take a few days for me. Will die on the road!"
"Ah!" An Ling'er exclaimed in exclamation. Covered his small mouth.
"Gou Qiong will not let this kind of news that hinder his face and majesty be spread. The best way is to kill people and kill them. There will be no evidence at that time. No one knows how his son was saved by humans." Yang Kai Smiling coldly, a shrewd light flashed in his eyes.
"This is just your guess, right?" An Ling'er still seemed a little unbelievable.
"It's not a guess. It's a fact!" Yang Kai concluded, "How could Gou Qiong be so kind and willing to redeem his son while also attaching me and you. You need to know what he paid for. The ransom is quite a lot. He is clearly an ulterior motive... If I guess right, on the way home from Gouchi, there are already masters waiting for us in an ambush. Once we show up, what is waiting for us is ruthless. Interception!"
An Ling'er's delicate body trembled slightly, and she couldn't help feeling a sense of fortunate escape.
"This. Shirley knows it too! But she didn't mean to wake me up at all, this woman is really insidious..." Yang Kai gritted his teeth.
"No wonder she laughed so strangely when you refused just now, it turned out to be like this." An Ling'er suddenly realized. I couldn't help but feel a deep sense of admiration for Yang Kai.
If this matter were changed to let her take the charge, she must have left with the gouchi happily. Maybe I would imagine that when Gouqiong was there, the other party would thank him for saving his son, but he didn't want to hide the murderous intent over there, and it would be fierce!
There was a trace of fear in Fang's heart, and he said angrily: "That Gouchi is also an ungrateful dog thing. He should know his father's character, right?"
"Hmph, he knew nothing more." Yang Kai sneered again and again.
"Then you shouldn't have brought him out of the Little Profound Realm before!" An Ling'er was furious.
"My misstep, I just wanted to borrow his identity and status at the time. It's a pity that cleverness was mistaken by cleverness, but he also played a role. At least he brought us out of Shahai. Without him, We may get lost in it for a lifetime. Even if we leave the sand sea, we will be chased and captured by other demons. We may not have the chance to come to the sand city and the security in front of us."
Everything has advantages and disadvantages, depending on what everyone thinks.
Gouchi was indeed ruthless and unrighteous, but Yang Kai had no intention of sincerely making friends with him, so there was nothing to be disappointed.
Yang Kai slowly shook his head: "I won't talk about this. What I have to consider now is how to survive on the hands of a woman like Shirley. You will always follow her, pay attention to observe more, and see if we can use it. A place, perhaps an inadvertent discovery, will allow us to find life."
"En." An Ling'er nodded heavily, and inexplicably gave birth to a feeling of being dependent on Yang Kai.
After another conversation, the strong under Shirley urged outside the temple, and Yang Kai said goodbye to An Ling'er and was taken back to his room again.
Time passed, everything was stable.
After Yang Kai refused Gou Qiong's ransom that day, he seemed to have been forgotten by Shirley, and he hadn't been noticed for two months.
Yang Kai was also happy and leisurely. Apart from meditating and practicing, he communicated with the sacred tree all day long.
After two months, the sacred tree's mentality has grown very rapidly, and now he can have a simple conversation with Yang Kai using his spiritual thoughts.
It has learned a lot of knowledge from Yang Kai, and its wisdom is growing rapidly. Today it has almost the IQ of a six or seven-year-old child. Apart from being naughty, everything else is fine.
The sacred tree is now rooted in the black book space. Yang Kai can replenish yang attribute energy from it anytime and anywhere, and even replenish the power of divine consciousness. It can be said that he carries a huge energy warehouse with him, which is extremely convenient and fast. .
After two months of cultivation, Yang Kai's strength has also greatly increased.
On this day, when Yang Kai evacuated the spirit body into the black book space, he suddenly discovered something wrong.
It seems that one or two of the precious ores stored in his black book space have disappeared.
These ores were collected by Yang Kai when he entered the starry sky last time. After that starry sky storm passed by, there were a lot of these ores left in the starry sky. For the secret treasure, there has been no time, let alone a suitable refiner.
Yang Kai didn't know too much about the quantity of these ores, but he keenly discovered that they were indeed scarce.
And in the place where they originally existed, some scattered rubble remained there. These rubble were completely useless impurities. In other words, all the essence in the original ore disappeared.
Yang Kai was puzzled, and escaped the spirit body into the heart of the tree, and asked the god tree a bit.
He originally thought that the sacred tree secretly drew the essence of those ore, but he didn't expect that the sacred tree shook his head straight after hearing the words, indicating that it had nothing to do with him.
Yang Kai laughed dumbly and didn't ask any more questions.
The sage of the sacred tree is only equivalent to a child, and it is normal to lie at this age.
Yang Kai naturally didn't mean to blame it, and even if the sacred tree needed these ores, Yang Kai could give it all.
"Well, if these stones are useful to you, you can use them directly, and I will look for them if they are not there. By the way, there is also the spiritual liquid over there. You can absorb one drop every day, which may help your growth."
The sacred tree suddenly became a little excited, and immediately stretched out a branch, reached the side of the panacea, carefully took a drop, and a moment later, there was a sound of comfort and satisfaction.
Yang Kai looked at it with a smile on his face, and at this moment, he suddenly noticed that someone was approaching him, and he quickly informed the god tree, and the spirit body escaped.
As soon as he opened his eyes, the door of the room was pushed open, and Shirley's subordinate beckoned to Yang Kai and said indifferently: "Come out, your lord wants to see you."
Yang Kai frowned, Yiyan walked out, following behind the man.
Yang Kai didn't know exactly what kind of cultivation level this person had, but it was inferred from Shirley's respect for him and the pressure he caused on him, that he was very likely to be a strong man who entered the Holy Realm.
It's just that the demons generally live longer than humans, so from the outside, this man is not very old, probably only about 30 years old, and looks handsome and handsome, showing a cynical look from time to time.
Only when facing Shirley would he have a solemn face, and he didn't dare to overstep and make mistakes.
"How do you call a friend?" Yang Kai suddenly asked.
The man turned his head, glanced at Yang Kai, and chuckled: "My lord said that you are a courageous boy, and it seems to be so now! You don't seem to have the consciousness of being a prisoner at all."
Yang Kai shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Although I am under house arrest by you here, you haven't done anything to me for such a long time. This means that I am still valuable to you. I need to have some awareness. ?"
"The kid is smart enough, I like it!" The man chuckled and groaned: "Call me Yu Mo."
"The names of your demons are all weird..." Yang Kai shook his head.
"I think your human names are weird!" Yu Mo smiled slightly.
"What do you adults want me to do this time?" Yang Kai asked again.
"I don't know, maybe I think you are worthless, maybe if you want to kill you." Yu Mo looked gloat, whistling frivolously, "So you'd better be mentally prepared, or wait a while. It might be dying."
Yang Kai twitched the corner of his mouth, his expression unchanged.
Yu Mo observed his words and expressions, and nodded secretly, thinking that this kid was a little different. If ordinary people heard the news, he might have been so scared, but he didn't look worried. (To be continued)
