Amidst the drifting snowflakes, Miao Yi stood high above the ruins, with a dozen or so corpses hanging behind him. An uncontrollable killing intent emanated from his body as he stared coldly at Yan Xiu below.
He didn't say a word and just stared coldly at Yan Xiu, waiting for Yan Xiu to explain himself.
"Cave Master! You're finally back! " Regaining his senses, Yan Xiu suddenly let out a cry of grief. He jumped off his dragon steed and ran over, kneeling on one knee on the ground with his axe. He had no face to face Miao Yi as tears streamed down his old face. He shook his head, choked with sobs, and said, "Yan Xiu is useless. I have failed Cave Master's great trust. Yan Xiu deserves to die ten thousand times over!"
With these words, Miao Yi confirmed in his heart that he was still the Cave Master of this place. Yang Qing had not replaced him with someone else.
Actually, when he saw the faces of these handmaidens just now, he had already guessed that if someone else had been in charge of East Arrival Cave, these handmaidens would probably have already been sent back to the Manor of Merciful Hope in East Arrival City. This was the usual practice, because no one wished for their handmaidens to be second-hand goods. Even if they did, they wouldn't keep all of them.
He had been gone for so long, yet Yang Qing still retained the position of Cave Master for him. It could be seen that Yang Qing had treated him well!
But it was precisely because of this, because he knew that this was still his territory, yet it was being trampled upon to such an extent, the rage in his heart was even more monstrous, and his entire body felt as if it had been struck by lightning.
His scalp was numb, his entire body was numb, and his mouth was dry.
Yao Ruoxian tilted his head to look at Miao Yi, muttering to himself, 'So this brat really is the Cave Master of this place. A White Lotus Third Grade Cave Master, I've seen a ghost.'
He had come here with the intention of verifying whether or not Miao Yi was the Cave Master. After all, he still had some doubts before, but now it seemed that it was true. The person before him did not look like he was pretending to cooperate with that brat's act.
Miao Yi's face was ashen. He stared coldly at Yan Xiu, who was kneeling before him, and asked word by word, "Who did this?"
"When this subordinate was patrolling the mountain today, I saw Yuan Zhengkun leading Li Xin, Sun Jiaojiao, and the others to attack from the back of the mountain. This subordinate was alone and unable to resist, nor was I able to save them in time. He had no choice but to break out of the encirclement. After he was lucky enough to escape, he immediately rushed to Mount Calming Sea to report the situation. Who knew that he would run into the Mountain Chieftain, who had heard the news and was rushing over with her men. By the time he followed the Mountain Chieftain back to her abode, he was already in such a state. I saw Yuan Zhengkun and the others escape with my own eyes. After that, Mountain Chieftain led a group of people to chase after them … "Yan Xiu sobbed as he recounted the situation.
"Hehe … Yuan Zhengkun … Hehe …" Miao Yi was so angry that he started laughing.
Never in his wildest dreams did he expect that Yuan Zhengkun would actually return. He could not forget that guy. That guy had used everyone as a scapegoat and had almost taken his life. If it wasn't for Yang Qing's special treatment, he would have been dead for god knows how many years.
More importantly, he had caused the deaths of Luo Zhen and Cao Dingfeng. He didn't have many friends, and two of his few friends had been killed by that bastard. If that bastard had wanted to escape, he could have brought everyone along with him, but he had inexplicably pushed everyone to their deaths. He hadn't even settled the score with him, yet he had actually come to harm himself.
Miao Yi's new and old grudges were stuck in his chest, causing him to feel extremely uncomfortable.
Charcoal, who was maintaining a connection with him through his fleshy feelers, was clearly a little anxious and uneasy, because he could feel Miao Yi's indescribable and boundless rage.
Charcoal turned in a circle uneasily. However, he was forcefully ordered by Miao Yi to return to his original position, facing Yan Xiu.
"Hehe … Yuan Zhengkun …" Miao Yi stared at Yan Xiu with a fake smile and asked, "Where did Qian'Er and Xue'Er go?"
Yan Xiu shook his head with trembling lips, "Yan Xiu is useless. I couldn't find them anywhere. They don't have mounts, so I'm afraid they couldn't escape. I'm afraid … I'm afraid they've already been abducted by Yuan Zhengkun and the others!"
"Abducted?" Miao Yi's eyes suddenly widened.
The situation before him allowed him to imagine what would happen to Qian'Er and Xue'Er after they were abducted. Was it not enough to torture those two girls to death? They even wanted to take them away and continue tormenting them?
Was it because they knew the two of them were the Cave Master's handmaidens?
Was it to deliberately humiliate him?
He had always wanted to find his little sister and little sister by his side to take care of, but if he really did find them, what if they ended up like this?
Would he be able to protect them?
A surge of hot blood instantly rushed to his head. Miao Yi could no longer hold back the anger in his heart. He abruptly roared towards the sky, "Ahhh!!! Yuan Zhengkun, you will die a horrible death. I swear I will kill you. If I don't avenge this, I am not human … "
"What are you screaming about …" Yao Ruoxian used his pinky to dig his ear hole, "My ears are numb from all the noise. You think you can kill someone just because you scream? I've never seen it before. "
Yan Xiu didn't know who that sloppy old man was. He raised his head to look at the raging Miao Yi. Seeing the Cave Master's sadness, he couldn't help but lower his head, choking on his tears again, "Yan Xiu is useless. I have failed Cave Master's trust!"
After venting his anger, Miao Yi took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and tried his best to calm down. He shook his head, "It's not your fault. You couldn't stop them by yourself. You were lucky to escape. It's all my fault. If I hadn't taken them away, things wouldn't have turned out this way. Get up! "
When Yan Xiu slowly stood up, Miao Yi flipped his palm, and immediately plucked an immortal fruit from the immortal herb in his storage ring. He blew out a wisp of nebula, and it floated towards the wound on Yan Xiu's arm.
After healing his wound, Miao Yi casually tossed the immortal fruit over.
Yan Xiu caught the immortal fruit in his hand, and was somewhat stunned. He didn't know what this was, but he could feel that this was definitely a divine healing medicine. Its miraculous effects seemed to be similar to the Glorious Star immortal herb, the divine healing medicine of the cultivation world. Was the Cave Master going to give this treasure to him?
"Keep this item, in case of emergency!" As expected, Miao Yi gave this item to him.
This was a reward for Yan Xiu. Just based on the fact that Yan Xiu wasn't the same as before, just based on the fact that Yan Xiu didn't surrender even in the face of death, to Miao Yi, it was worth it for him to reward him handsomely.
"Thank you, Cave Master!" Yan Xiu cupped his fists with reddened eyes.
Below the high platform, Yao Ruoxian rolled his eyes. He had plucked two immortal fruits, and this brat was so stingy. Now he was being generous. It seemed that a Red Lotus cultivator like him wasn't even worthy of his attention.
"Yan Xiu!"
"Your subordinate is here!"
Miao Yi asked, emphasizing each word, "Do you dare to make a trip with me, and take the life of that scum, Yuan Zhengkun?"
Yan Xiu cupped his fists again, "Your subordinate is willing to follow you until death!"
Reward him again! Without hesitation, Miao Yi fished out a storage ring from his waist, and casually tossed it to Yan Xiu, "Keep it!"
After receiving it, Yan Xiu noticed the six storage rings on Miao Yi's hand. He was slightly surprised. Even though his sorrow had yet to dissipate, a thought flashed through his mind — Cave Master had gone out and struck it rich!
There was still a reward! Miao Yi flipped his hand, and a pair of large, gleaming silver axes appeared in his hands. They were much larger than the ones in Yan Xiu's hand, and there was even a chain wrapped around the handle. He tossed it to Yan Xiu again, "I'll give you a transcendent artifact that fits your hand. Very well, follow me to kill! This is a pair of first grade transcendent artifacts. Erase the art source within, and insert your own art source, and it will become your transcendent artifact. "
He had forgotten which Fort Master's weapon it belonged to, and had almost been refined by Yao Ruoxian before. Miao Yi remembered that this transcendent artifact was suitable for Yan Xiu, so he purposely kept it.
It wasn't over yet. A mid-grade Orb of Will shot out from Miao Yi's hand, landing in Yan Xiu's. "Keep it as a backup!"
Yan Xiu was a little shocked. Immortal fruits, storage rings, a pair of transcendent artifacts, mid-grade Orb of Will … Cave Master was so generous, it seemed like he had really struck it rich in the Sea of Constellations. But where did the others that Cave Master had brought with him go?
To the current Miao Yi, this wasn't much, excluding the consumption from when Yao Ruoxian refined the transcendent artifacts for him. In addition to the consumption from his own cultivation during this period of time, and the reward he had just given to Yan Xiu.
Now, just the storage rings on his hand, including those given by Yang Qing and Madame Wu Hua's people, he had a total of 210 storage rings.
If all the crystal coins were converted to Gold Crystals, there would be more than thirty million Gold Crystals in cash.
There were eighty-two first grade transcendent artifacts that hadn't been used yet.
There were four hundred and fifty-eight low-grade Orbs of Will.
There were one hundred and seventy-one mid-grade Orbs of Will.
There were eight hundred and eighty-eight ungraded Yao Cores.
There were one hundred and seventy First Grade Yao Cores.
There was also half a chest of Blaze Resins, and more than ten thousand jars of spiritual wine brewed from spiritual herbs. Drinking it would definitely help in raising one's cultivation. The other miscellaneous items aside, to a normal cultivator at Miao Yi's level, it could be said that he was overflowing with wealth.
But how could he be in the mood to calculate these things right now? A dozen or so corpses hung behind him, dying with their eyes wide open, their tongues hanging out as they stared at the Cave Master. The ruins before him had been forcefully destroyed by someone!
He didn't reward Yan Xiu one by one for the sake of showing off, but to arm Yan Xiu. He wanted Yan Xiu to accompany him to kill. If he didn't kill his enemy with his own hands, it would be difficult to dispel the hatred in his heart!
"Senior Yao. If I don't take revenge for this, I won't be able to eat or sleep in peace. Are you willing to lend me a hand? "Miao Yi looked down at Yao Ruoxian and asked.
Yao Ruoxian raised his head to look at the sky, and said nonchalantly, "This is your grudge, it's none of my business! Don't forget the agreement between us. "
With the current situation, according to the agreement, he, Yao Ruoxian, would probably have to temporarily submit to East Arrival Cave.
But they had agreed beforehand that he, Yao Ruoxian, would be free to come and go, and wouldn't be restricted by Miao Yi in any way. He also didn't have to respect Miao Yi as his superior, and he wouldn't be Miao Yi's henchman. Miao Yi also couldn't order him to do anything, otherwise he would kill Miao Yi with a single strike of his mace.
He only joined East Arrival Cave to stay in East Arrival Cave officially, so that he could build a relationship with the tiny mantids. He wasn't here to be Miao Yi's subordinate. Those eighty-five tiny mantids were currently clinging to his wide sleeves.
Seeing him say this, Miao Yi knew he couldn't force him, so he didn't say anything more.
Unexpectedly, Yao Ruoxian gestured towards the dozen or so corpses hanging on the broken beams with his lips and said, "Your fighting and killing has nothing to do with me. You go ahead and kill. I will help you collect these pitiful corpses."
"There's no need!" Miao Yi said coldly.
"Yeah!" Yao Ruoxian was instantly annoyed, and coldly scoffed, "I'm already giving you face by helping you with some work. You brat, are you trying to get ahead of yourself?"
Yan Xiu turned to look at Yao Ruoxian. He didn't know who this person was, but the Cave Master seemed to be afraid of him.
"Senior, you misunderstand." Miao Yi slowly turned around on his mount, and raised his hand to point at the corpses hanging on the beams with their long tongues sticking out. He sternly said, "Senior, look. Each and every one of their eyes are wide open, and they are all staring at me, Miao Yi. If I, Miao Yi, cannot avenge them, then even if I collect their corpses, they won't be able to rest in peace. Let them hang here, let them open their eyes and watch. As long as my East Arrival Cave is unable to avenge their humiliation, then let them watch me, Miao Yi. I will allow them to become ghosts, even if they do not forgive me. If I cannot avenge their humiliation, then East Arrival Cave will never be rebuilt! "
