ng Hong slowly raised his head. His face was dark, sunken, and extrely pale, but there was a glint in his eyes. He looked at Yang Kai as the corners of his lips slowly rose into a smile, “The Heavens have blessed !”

A heavy weight was imdiately lifted off Yang Kai’s shoulder and he broke into laughter, “Brother ng is truly blessed with good fortune!”

In a situation where he was ant to die nine tis out of ten, ng Hong had carved a way out. Yang Kai might not have any idea what ng Hong had gone through these eight days, but judging by his state and the state of the room, he could tell that ng Hong had constantly been wandering between life and death.

After making him take a few pills and adjust his breathing, Yang Kai finally sent ng Hong back to rest.

The Great Moon Province disciples were summoned and ng Hong explained the entire ordeal to them personally. A look of fear imdiately appeared on their faces and one of them rebuked their Eldest Senior Brother for not even saying anything to them before taking such a big risk. What would they do if he had an accident? The other Junior Brother was indignant, clamouring to kill Chen Yue for causing disturbing thoughts in their Eldest Senior Brother’s mind.

While they were raising a fuss, Yang Kai and Yue He withdrew, leaving the three Fellow Brothers to talk it out.

Over the next few days, ng Hong’s condition improved gradually. The Tai Yi Soul Cleansing Water had stripped him of the four Third-Order Elents, allowing him to return to the state when he had just condensed his Dao Seal, which was equivalent to gaining a chance to start over. It was a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity which not everyone could have.

This ti, ng Hong would naturally not act arbitrarily.

A few days later, Yang Kai went to visit ng Hong again to ask about his future plans.

ng Hong replied, “Since I have wiped clean my Third-Order foundation, naturally I want to achieve a higher order. Fourth-Order is too low, while Sixth-Order is beyond my capability. If I could beco a Fifth-Order Open Heaven Realm Master, it would be worth the risk I took.”

Yang Kai lightly nodded after hearing this. ng Hong’s ambition wasn’t big compared to his own, but for a disciple of Great Moon Province, the Fifth-Order was absolutely a luxury. After all, any Fifth-Order material would cost 1.5 million Open Heaven Pills, so seven materials would cost at least 10 million Open Heaven Pills. Great Moon Province might be able to collect this sum if they were willing to sacrifice greatly for hundreds of years, but it was aningless to do so if they couldn’t find sellers for such materials.

It should be known that even with the backing of the Proprietress, Bai Qi could only achieve the Fifth-Order Open Heaven Realm.

If ng Hong could achieve the Fifth-Order Open Heaven Realm, then he would have the chance to reach the Seventh-Order in his lifeti, ascending beyond the Mid-Rank Open Heaven Realm. He would have a chance to appreciate the scenery from the High-Rank Open Heaven Realm.

Furthermore, ng Hong had also said that Sixth-Order materials weren’t sothing that he could withstand.

Soone had told Yang Kai before that condensing Higher-Order Elents wasn’t necessarily the best for a cultivator. Everyone had their own tolerance limit, and if one exceeded that limit, they might lose their life in vain before reaching the Open Heaven Realm.

ng Hong had judged that he could at most bear Fifth-Order Elents, which was also the limit most cultivators could bear. If he went for higher Order materials, whether it was his body or Dao Seal, both would be unable to bear it.

“If it’s Fifth-Order, I can give Brother ng sothing!” Yang Kai stated with a flip of his hand. The next mont, a hot aura appeared in his palm, as if he was holding a small sun.

ng Hong’s expression froze as he exclaid, “Sun’s True Fire! Is this… sothing you got from the Sun Star?”

He had also seen Sun’s True Fires before; after all, he was among the Great Moon Province disciples present when the Sun Star was extinguished. He had followed Wei Que to search for the Sun’s True Fire, so ng Hong recognized it at a glance.

Yang Kai replied with a nod, “Yes, it’s from that Sun Star.”

Yang Kai had not only seized the Golden Crow carcass right under the nose of many Open Heaven Realm Masters, but also pocketed a lot of Sun’s True Fires at the Fourth and Fifth-Order. However, he didn’t have that many Fifth-Order Sun’s True Fires, just three. They had been lying useless all this ti in his Space Ring, but since ng Hong needed it now, Yang Kai would not be stingy.

ng Hong kept staring at the Sun’s True Fire in a daze. He wanted to refuse but at the sa ti, was really reluctant too.

Great Moon Province had also obtained a Fifth-Order Sun’s True Fire, but instead of letting their disciples use it, they decided to exchange it for a batch of Fourth-Order materials. Owing to this careful planning, Great Moon Province would be able to raise a Fourth-Order Open Heaven Realm Master soday in the future. When that happened, Great Moon Province would be able to have a Mid-Rank Open Heaven Realm Master assu command of the Sect, allowing them to barely beco a Second Class great force.

After observing ng Hong’s words and expression, Yang Kai smiled and stated, “Brother ng, please accept it for now, think of it as a loan. You can pay back in the future if the opportunity presents itself.”

After Yang Kai had said so, ng Hong couldn’t refuse anymore, so he imdiately nodded, “Thanks are not enough for this kindness, this ng will definitely not disappoint Brother Yang’s intentions.”

Urging his Qi, he wrapped the Sun’s True Fire and accepted it. In an instant, a wave of heat blew against his face, making ng Hong involuntarily groan as his expression changed slightly.

He was used to dealing with the Third-Order materials, which he could still handle with ease. Now, when he ca in contact with a Fifth-Order material, he knew that not everyone could absorb these high-quality materials. If one’s foundation was lacking even a little, he or she would quite possibly get burned to death by this scorching heat once they began absorbing the Fire Elent Power.

ng Hong was secretly glad that he didn’t have overly lofty goals and only aid for the Fifth-Order. He made a wise decision.

Leaving ng Hong to refine the Sun’s True Fire and condense his Fire Elent, Yang Kai summoned the two Great Moon Province disciples to stand guard for him before finally leaving.

Passing through the corridor, Yang Kai saw a familiar figure sweeping the fallen leaves in the courtyard, which startled him slightly.

The other party seed to have noticed him too. Chen Yue looked up and when their eyes t, she promptly lowered her head and greeted, “Sixth Manager!”

Yang Kai lightly nodded, having no intention of talking to her. Yue He had let her stay for ng Hong to deal with. Unfortunately, ng Hong had been in retreat all this ti and now that he had a Sun’s True Fire to refine, perhaps he could care less about personal affairs for a short ti.

Just as Yang Kai was about to leave, Yue He hurried over, “Guo Zi Yan was here. His n have found a Yuan Magnetic Mountain.”

“Yuan Magnetic Mountain?” Yang Kai raised his brow.

Yue He explained, “A Yuan Magnetic Mountain nurtures Yuan Magnetism Divine Stones, which are tal Elent materials.”

Yang Kai’s eyes lit up, “What’s the location?”

He had just finished gathering his Earth Elent, so the next on the list was tal. At this ti, Guo Zi Yan had tily sent a ssage, making Yang Kai feel as if pies were falling from the sky.

Yang Kai couldn’t help but wonder whether there was a Yuan Magnetism Divine Stone in the Yuan Magnetic Mountain that was Seventh-Order or above.

Yue He handed him a jade slip which he promptly scanned with his Divine Sense. The next mont, he found a map with a spot marked a few tens of thousands of kiloters away from the Star City.

Yue He added, “Not just our people have discovered the Yuan Magnetic Mountain, but many other people have also found it. According to Guo Zi Han, so Yuan Magnetism Divine Stones have already been extracted.”

“What Order?” Yang Kai asked.

“Third-Order, Fourth-Order, Fifth-Order, all of them.” Yue He seed to know what he wanted to ask. After she was finished speaking, her red lips moved again as she added, “Fifth-Order materials are very rare even in the Grand Ancient Ruins Boundary. You better not expect too much.”

Yang Kai remained non-committal, “I’ll go take a look. ng Hong is focusing on condensing his Fire Elent, so you stay here and oversee things.”

“I don’t care about his life or death.” Yue He disdainfully spat. She then turned to Chen Yue and ordered, “I’ll leave it to you!”

Chen Yue blinked in stupefaction as she pointed at herself and asked, “?”

When she looked up though, she saw that Yang Kai and Yue He were nowhere to be found.

After leaving the mansion, Yang Kai soared into the sky, found his bearings after a mont, then flew off with Yue He closely following behind.

In the corner of the Star City, two figures were quietly standing, staring in the direction Yang Kai and Yue He left. One of them was a middle-aged man, who was wearing a golden crown and a python robe. He was incredibly fat. This fat man was none other than Chen Tian Fei of Scarlet Star.

As a Scarlet Star Manager, Chen Tian Fei also had thousands of people under him; however, at this mont, he was standing behind a middle-aged man.

“That’s the new Manager?” The middle-aged man suddenly asked.

“Yes, it’s him. His na is Yang Kai,” Chen Tian Fei respectfully replied. His cultivation had recovered over these days, allowing him to regain his original fat layers. At this mont, his face was red and radiant.

Observing the other party’s expression and bearing, Chen Tian Fei cautiously asked, “How should we deal with him, Head Manager?”

The middle-aged man was Scarlet Star’s hidden Dragon who showed his tail but never his face, the Head Manager. Du Niang Zi and Gan Hong had tragically died at Yang Kai’s hands, yet this Head Manager had never made an appearance. However, he had co out for so reason today.

“What do you think I should do?” The Head Manager indifferently asked.

Chen Tian Fei pondered and replied, “Du Niang Zi and Gan Hong lost their lives at his hands before he forced us to recognize him as a new Manager. However, word of it has already spread. If we don’t give an explanation to the people below, I’m afraid it will be difficult to convince the public.”

“You want to kill him?” The Head Manager asked.

Chen Tian Fei replied, “It will be up to Head Manager’s discretion!”

The Head Manager continued, “If what you said is true, that this little brat killed Du Niang Zi and Gan Hong in such a short ti, then he is a rare genius. It’s not possible to kill him with Scarlet Star’s current power.”

Chen Tian Fei was shocked, “Head Manger, you are also not sure about it?” He was very surprised by this. He thought that the Head Manager would not spare Yang Kai once he left his retreat. If not, how could the rest of the Managers so easily compromise? But judging by what the Head Manager has said, it was actually impossible to kill Yang Kai now.

[Are we really going to let him occupy the magpie’s nest and take the position of Du Niang Zi and Gan Hong?]

The Head Manager indifferently added, “He was able to kill Du Niang Zi and Gan Hong while stopping all of you. He is already invincible in the Emperor Realm. In the Grand Ancient Ruins Boundary, this King has no confidence in defeating him!”

Chen Tian Fei’s eyes couldn’t help but widen. Although Scarlet Star was a loose organization, the Head Manager had near absolute control as his strength was imnse and his vision was acute. Much to Chen Tian Fei’s surprise though, this man even stated that Yang Kai was invincible in the Emperor Realm!
