Martial Peak

This Wu does not have any particular strong points, but he understands what needs to be done! It is for this reason that Netherworld Sect could develop into the force it is today.
Although Sir Holy Master’s cultivation is currently below this Wu’s, I believe that within a few years you will overtake me.
I don’t want to sit idly by waiting for you to exact your revenge on my Sect, and… This Wu always felt that even if I was to fight with you now, I may not necessarily win.”

“You really do understand what must be done!” Yang Kai’s mouth curled into a fierce grin.

He suddenly found that this Wu Jie was quite interesting.
Although he was no doubt a villain, he was an upfront and level headed one.
Moreover, his vision and instincts were excellent.
Inside this Soul Battle Hall, Yang Kai really didn’t fear him.

“Netherworld Sect received much favour from your old Holy Master and hopes to continue receiving such favour from you in the future.
This Wu is not asking for much, he only wishes to secure a bright future for Netherworld Sect.”

“I can promise you that much!” Yang Kai nodded.

“Many thanks,” Wu Jie cupped his fists and bowed.

“In the future, you will rejoice that you made such a wise decision today,” Yang Kai laughed confidently.

“It seems Zhang Ao and Cao Guan are in for some misfortune…” Wu Jie said meaningfully as he exchanged a look with Yang Kai and laughed.

A moment later, he adjusted his expression and with a flick of his wrist, sent a glimmering ball of light towards Yang Kai and solemnly said, “Inside this are the memories of that fortuitous encounter this Wu had in the past.
If you examine it briefly you’ll understand that what this Wu said is not false.”

“I’ll accept this then,” Yang Kai absorbed the ball of light into his Soul Avatar.

“Although this method is profound and shocking, this Wu must caution you, never use it unless absolutely necessary, otherwise you may find yourself lost in the Void, when this Wu first used it…” Coming to this point, it seemed Wu Jie recalled something terrifying and began shivering, unwilling to even remember it, “In any case, be abundantly cautious.”

“I’ll remember,” Yang Kai nodded, not bothering to check the information he received.

“There is still something I must tell you.
This Wu estimates that Zhang Ao and Cao Guan will not give up on capturing you for some time so I have no choice but to continue chasing after you for a while.
However, I don’t think Sir Holy Master will mind, there’s no way we can catch up to you anyways.”

“It doesn’t matter,” Yang Kai nodded.

“Good… then this Wu will say goodbye!” Having obtained Yang Kai’s promise, Wu Jie looked very satisfied.

Yang Kai waved his hand and released the Soul Battle Hall’s bindings, allowing the pairs Soul Avatars to return to their bodies in the next instant.

Wu Jie nodded towards Yang Kai and was about to depart when a frown appeared on his face and he seemingly casually mentioned, “Right, has Sir Holy Master ever seen the Coffin Carrying Man?”

Hearing this, Yang Kai’s eyes flashed a cold light and his aura became dangerous.

Wu Jie jumped in surprise and quickly said, “No need to get so excited, I was just asking offhandedly.”

“Why do you ask?”

“Because I inadvertently heard that Cao Guan and one of his subordinates named Yao Di talking about the Coffin Carrying Man when they were talking about you, so I thought you may have seen the Coffin Carrying Man at some point.”

“Yao Di?” Yang Kai frowned, suddenly recalling a person by that name having been outside Raging Flame City that day, asking, “What else did they say?”

Wu Jie shook his head, “I didn’t hear clearly, they were quite covert in their conversation.”

As if he was speaking to himself, Wu Jie continued, “It’s rumored that the Coffin Carrying Man hides some kind of shocking treasure that anyone who unlocks his secret can obtain the power to become a supreme ruler… En, I don’t know if such rumors are true or false.
Heh, well, pay it not mind, I was speaking thoughtlessly, I’ll take my leave!”

Saying so, Wu Jie flew off in a leisurely manner.

Gazing at his disappearing back, Yang Kai’s brow wrinkled.

As the saying goes, there is no smoke without fire.
The rumors about the Coffin Carrying Man weren’t exactly true, but they also weren’t entirely wrong.

On the Coffin Carrying Man’s back, there was indeed a hidden power that could allow a person to become the ruler of a vast territory, but this power could not be wielded by just anyone.

Wu Jie seemingly unintentionally raising this was obviously his way of subtly warning Yang Kai not to reveal his relationship with the Coffin Carrying Man.

This fellow… his thoughts were quite exquisite, and he was also the type who acted decisively.

Just because he was optimistic about Yang Kai’s future, he had done his best to melt the enmity between them and instead become friends.
From a certain perspective, Wu Jie was quite far-sighted.

Shaking his head, Yang Kai didn’t think too much about it, turned in a certain direction and flew off.

Zhang Ao and Cao Guan were still chasing him and the former was a genuine Second Order Saint.
Facing the Divine Sense probing of such a powerful master, Yang Kai had no choice but to flee as he couldn’t completely hide his aura.

In a flash, a month passed by, and Yang Kai faintly felt that he had gotten rid of Zhang Ao’s tracing.

After such a long chase, not only was Yang Kai depressed, it was likely Zhang Ao had also lost hope and had finally given up.

Spending a few more days wandering around to determine that he had really lost Zhang Ao, Yang Kai breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he was not worried about them being able to catch him, being pursued by a Second Order Saint was by no means comfortable.

Spotting a lush and verdant mountain range up ahead with extremely rich World Aura, Yang Kai spread out his Divine Sense to inspect the area but discovered only some low level Monster Beasts.

Nodding with satisfaction, Yang Kai immediately flew towards one of the mountain peaks.
