Chapter 5945: Guidance

Yang Kai ignored the commotion in the Grand Hall and looked at the Saintess, awaiting her reply in silence.

After a long time, the veiled woman said, I dont mind taking off my veil, but

The commotion stopped abruptly as all of their necks seemed to have been grabbed by invisible hands as they looked dazedly at the woman.

None of them expected the Saintess to agree to this kind of ridiculous request.

Yang Kai said with a smile, It seems that theres a condition.

Indeed, the Saintess nodded matter-of-factly, Since youve brought forward a demand, I naturally have to come up with one as well.

Yang Kai replied solemnly, Please tell me.

The Saintess went on to say softly, Zuo Wu You has reported that you are the Holy Son, and the timing and circ.u.mstances of your appearance matches the prophecy; however, it is hard to tell whether you are indeed the Holy Son. When the first Saintess made her prophecy, she also left behind a test for the Holy Son.

Yang Kais expression changed as he realised the womans intentions, Do you want me to go through the test?

Yes.

His expression turned awkward at that instant.

According to Chu An He, the true Holy Son had actually appeared 10 years ago. All the Spirit Religions higher-ups had acknowledged the incident. In other words, the Holy Son mustve pa.s.sed the test, and his ident.i.ty had been verified.

Therefore, from the Spirit Religions perspective, Yang Kai must be a fake for claiming to be the Holy Son.

Despite that, the Saintess still wanted him to go through the test, which was a perplexing idea.

Yang Kai swept a glance over the Order Lords in the front row and realised that they appeared shocked. Apparently, they didnt expect the Saintess to come up with such a demand.

[How interesting. They obviously didnt discuss it before. The Saintess mustve improvised.]

In that case, Yang Kai could only think of one possibility.

The Saintess must be certain that he couldnt pa.s.s the test, and when that happened, she naturally wouldnt have to fulfil his request as well.

After giving it some thought, Yang Kai said, No problem. Do we start now?

The Saintess shook her head, The test is in a sealed land, and it takes some time to open it. You can go and get some rest. When we are ready, we will inform you about it.

Following that, she said to Ma Cheng Ze, Order Lord Ma, please help settle him down.

Ma Cheng Ze stepped forward and replied, Yes.

Then, he beckoned to Yang Kai, Please come with me, Little Friend.

Yang Kai took another look at the Saintess and cupped his fist before leaving the place.

After he was gone, an Order Lord asked, Holy Saintess, why did you ask him to head to the sealed land and go through the test?

The Saintess explained, Since he has the peoples support and the blessing of the Worlds Will, we cant handle him as we please, nor can we expose him. In that case, Ive decided to let him go to the sealed land where the first Saintess had left behind the test. Only the real Holy Son can pa.s.s the test.

Someone finally realised the Saintess intentions as he said, Since hes a sham, theres no way he can pa.s.s the test. By then, well have a reason for dealing with him.

The Saintess nodded, Thats indeed my plan.

Holy Saintess is wise!

..

While moving forward alongside Ma Cheng Ze in the Holy Temple, Yang Kai suddenly asked, Old Ma, since Im a person who appeared out of nowhere, shouldnt you all be looking into my background first? Why did the Saintess ask me to head to the sealed land?

What did you just call me!? Ma Cheng Ze stopped in his tracks and looked at him in shock.

Old Ma. Whats wrong with that?

Ma Cheng Ze was so exasperated that he laughed, Whats wrong with that!? This King is an Order Lord as well as a Peak Immortal Ascension Boundary Master. Even if you dont want to call me Senior, youre supposed to call me Order Lord Ma at the very least.

Ill call you Order Lord Ma, then, Yang Kai decided to oblige. Since he was significantly more powerful, he couldnt bring himself to call the other man Senior, but calling him by his t.i.tle wasnt an issue.

Ma Cheng Ze shot him a glare and continued walking forward, Im not supposed to tell you anything, but for some reason, this King is fond of you, so Ill let you know a few things. We dont have to look into your background. If you can pa.s.s the test, youll be the Holy Son; however, if you fail the test, youll die. In that case, your background no longer matters.

After pondering for a moment, Yang Kai said, You have a point. Then, he changed the topic all of a sudden, Have you seen the Saintess face before?

Ma Cheng Ze shook his head, Brat, you dont look like a licentious man, so why are you curious about the Saintess appearance?

Yang Kai replied seriously, I already explained back in the Grand Hall earlier.

Your speculation that has something to do with the peoples happiness and the worlds safety? Asked Ma Cheng Ze while turning to look at him.

In response, Yang Kai nodded slightly.

Ma Cheng Ze decided to ignore him as he stopped in his tracks and pointed at the building in front of him, Youll stay here. When were ready, well summon you to the sealed land. Call out to the servants if you need anything; otherwise, just stay in your room.

Upon finis.h.i.+ng his words, he turned around and left.

After the man was gone, Yang Kai stepped into the courtyard and saw that some servants were already waiting. After making a few arrangements, he entered his room and got some rest.

Although those from the Spirit Religion believed that he was a fake, they didnt mistreat him. The place he stayed had a terrific environment, and there were more than 10 servants to serve him.

However, Yang Kai wasnt in the mood to enjoy anything. In his room, he sat down with his legs crossed and started cultivating.

After he acquired the peoples support and the blessing of the Worlds Will while moving along the 30-kilometre street, he felt that he had a vague connection with this independent World.

His suppressed power began to stir as well.

There were Immortal Ascension Masters in this World, but for some reason, after his arrival, he was reduced to the True Element Boundary.

He wanted to try whether he could break through the suppression. Even if he couldnt fully restore his power, it would be wonderful if he could make it to the Immortal Ascension Boundary.

After some hard work though, his attempt still failed.

He felt that there was a layer of invisible shackles that stopped him from fully activating his power.

Where is this place? Asked a voice all of a sudden.

You finally connected? An elated Yang Kai grabbed the jade pendant around his neck.

This thing was given to him by Wu Kuang when he entered the s.p.a.ce-Time River. The jade pendant contained a wisp of Wu Kuangs Soul; however, it fell silent after entering this place. Over the past few days, Yang Kai had been nurturing the jade pendant with his Spiritual Energy and finally, he was able to connect with Wu Kuang.

This place is strange, Wu Kuang said.

Yeah, Yang Kai replied, I still havent figured out the mystery behind this world. Why is there such a place in Mus s.p.a.ce-Time River? Do you know anything?

Nope. Mu left behind something in the Primordial Heavens Source Grand Restriction, but I never managed to figure out what that is. I doubt even Cang and the others have any idea.

Just like what Wu Kuang said, if not for the fact that Black Ink Strength in the Primordial Heavens Source Grand Restriction surged all of a sudden, he wouldnt have noticed the trump card that Mu had left behind.

Despite that, he had no idea what it was; therefore, he left a thread of his consciousness by Yang Kais side to explore the mystery.

That will be troublesome, then, Yang Kai knitted his brows together.

Wait a bit, Wu Kuang sounded surprised, as though he had discovered something, Somethings happening!

What do you mean? Yang Kai appeared excited.

I have no idea, but whatever it is, its like a faint guidance, Wu Kuang replied.

Yang Kai realised something at that moment. Wu Kuang was in charge of the Primordial Heavens Source Grand Restriction. Supposedly, he was able to detect everything inside the restriction. It was thanks to this advantage that he was able to protect the Suppressing Black Ink Army.

Presently, he had detected something; however, with the s.p.a.ce-Time River getting in the way, it was difficult to interpret it clearly.

Wheres the direction pointing at? Yang Kai asked.

Somewhere in the city, but not this place.

Lets go and have a look. Saying so, Yang Kai activated Thunder Shadows Innate Divine Ability to conceal his figure and aura.

..

In the deepest part of the Holy Temple, a beautiful woman was waiting in a Grand Hall.

Just then, someone was heard saying from outside, Order Lord Li would like to see you, Holy Saintess.

The woman lifted her head and said, Let her in.

Yes.

A while later, the Order Lord of the Fire Order entered the place and saluted the woman, Greetings, Holy Saintess.

The Saintess raised her hand with a smile, Please drop the formalities, Order Lord Li. Have you found anything?

Yes, Holy Saintess.

Just as Li Fei Yu was ready to report, the Saintess stopped her by saying, Wait a moment.

She fished out a piece of jade and infused her energy into it. In an instant, the Grand Hall was covered in a Spirit Array, ensuring that no one could eavesdrop on their conversation.

After the Grand Array was activated, the Saintess stopped pretending to be serious as she took Li Fei Yus hands and sat down. Then, she said with a smile, Youve worked hard, Big Sister Li. What have you found?

Li Fei Yu put on a helpless smile. Although the Saintess was a mild-tempered person, she had to appear authoritative in front of others. Only she knew what the Saintess was like in private.

Ive discovered many things, as Li Fei Yu recalled the information she had gathered, she fell into a dazed state.

After they entered the city, Ma Cheng Ze stayed by Yang Kais side while she left with Zuo Wu You. As the Fire Order Lord, she was responsible for gathering information; therefore, she had many things to ask Zuo Wu You.

That was the reason she didnt show up in the Grand Hall earlier.

Im all ears, the Saintess seemed interested.

Li Fei Yu replied, According to Zuo Wu You, he came across Yang Kai by chance. At that time, their whereabouts had been exposed as they were hunted down by the Black Ink Cult

She related to the Saintess the information she had learned from Zuo Wu You. When the Saintess heard that despite being a True Element Boundary Master, Yang Kai was able to kill Yan Peng, injure Xue Ji, and even repel the Earth Chapter Master, a myriad of expressions came over her.

Are you sure about that, Big Sister Li? How is he so powerful when hes only a True Element Boundary cultivator? Asked the Saintess.

Theres no problem with Zuo Wu You, so everything he has said must be true. All of those things happened, Li Fei Yu let out a sigh. When she heard about those incidents at that time, she couldnt believe her ears either.
