At Hu Hailong's command, eight Divine Lords flew out of the protective shield, lined up, and cupped their hands in unison. "Thank you, Friend Ye, for saving my life. Hu Hailong, the Young Master of the Pawnshop Devil Sect, invites you to come on board."
Then, the eight Divine Lords lined up in two rows and welcomed Ye Kong in.
Seeing that Hu Hailong had given him face and admitted that he was a member of the Pawnshop Devil Sect, even if Ye Kong was displeased, he wouldn't blame Hu Hailong for concealing his identity.
Ye Kong couldn't help but sigh. "Although this Hu Hailong's body is incomplete, he is indeed a character!"
Ye Kong and Yi Manying boarded the Star Boat. Yi Manying put away the Flying Hou, Wolf King, and stepped onto the front deck. Hu Hailong was already sitting in a wheelchair, waiting for them with a smile on his face.
"Young Master Hu, you really cheated me." Ye Kong walked over with a smile.
Hu Hailong had long since noticed that Ye Kong already knew that he was a member of the Pawnshop Devil Sect. Therefore, he had taken the initiative to tell him. He smiled and said, "I didn't tell you before. Please forgive me, Friend Ye." Then, he waved his hand and said, "Let's talk in the rear cabin."
Then, someone pushed Hu Hailong into the rear cabin, followed by Ye Kong and Yi Manying. A green-robed apprentice served them spiritual tea. Then, everyone started talking.
Ye Kong said, "Young Master Hu, not only are you very knowledgeable in the study of spell formations, but you are also very good at reading people's minds." Although Ye Kong said this with a smile, he was still a little impolite. After all, Ye Kong wasn't a good-tempered and generous person. Oh, I saved you, but you deliberately hid it from me, causing me to almost be killed in Black Thieves City. Of course I have to teach you a lesson.
Hu Hailong smiled awkwardly and said, "Daoist Ye, I'm too ashamed to show my face after hearing what you said. This is indeed a rule of the sect. Even as a young master, I can't easily violate it. Besides, I don't know why you came to the Pawnshop Devil Sect. What if you come to seek revenge? As a person like me, of course I have to be careful. "
Since Hu Hailong had used his body to speak, Ye Kong didn't blame him anymore. He just nodded and said, "Actually, Young Master Hu is thinking too much. This trip to the Pawnshop Devil Sect is just to find someone I know and take her away. I wonder if Young Master Hu can make an exception?"
"Oh?" Hu Hailong pondered for a moment and felt that what Ye Kong had said was very likely, so he asked, "I'm afraid it's not as simple as someone he knows, right? Friend Ye risked his life to fly hundreds of thousands of miles through the Firmament Underworld. It must be someone that Friend Ye values."
"A woman, a woman," Ye Kong said.
Hu Hailong laughed and said, "I've been dissolute since ancient times. I know that Friend Ye is a passionate person … But who is that woman?"
Hu Hailong was also worried. If it was an ordinary person, he could still speak, but if it was someone important, even his father, Hu Ke, would not agree.
Ye Kong said, "It's the Painting Sound Devil Sect's Devil Ancestor Huang Shishi. She's only at the peak of Yuanying, so she's probably insignificant compared to you guys. But to me, she's very important. If she hadn't saved me, she wouldn't have been willing to sell herself to the Pawnshop Devil Sect for 50 years, so I must bring her with me this time."
Hearing Ye Kong's words, Hu Hailong nodded and smiled. "Friend Ye, don't worry. You're my savior, so this small matter isn't worth mentioning. When I get back, I'll find that woman, destroy the contract, and let her go."
Hu Hailong meant for him to leave first, and he would let her go later … But Ye Kong had run so far, how could he let him go with just a few words? If he didn't see Huang Shishi, he definitely wouldn't leave.
Ye Kong said, "It doesn't matter. Ye has nothing to do anyway, so I'll take a look at the difference between your Pawnshop Devil Sect's new territory and Yunyao."
Hu Hailong's expression changed. It wasn't that he didn't welcome Ye Kong, but he was afraid that his father wouldn't let Ye Kong go.
Seeing that Hu Hailong's expression wasn't good, Ye Kong was a little annoyed. His face darkened as he said, "What, Young Master Hu doesn't welcome me?"
Hu Hailong was a little amused. This kid really changed his face faster than flipping a book. He hurriedly said, "Friend Ye, don't misunderstand. The key is … My father, Hu Ke, is very hospitable, and he's thirsty for talent. I'm afraid that when he sees that Friend Ye is extraordinary, he'll force the two of you to stay. That'll be a little troublesome."
In a moment of anxiety, Hu Hailong even told the truth.
However, what surprised Ye Kong was that his father, Hu Ke, was actually a True One! What was a True One? It was a Great Ascension Stage cultivator! If a Great Ascension Stage cultivator wanted to force Ye Kong to stay, he really wouldn't be able to leave.
Ye Kong couldn't help but frown, but after thinking about it again and again, he still felt that he couldn't leave. After running so far, seeing Huang Shishi in front of him, his heart felt like it was being clawed by a cat. How could he turn back?
I, Ye, would never do such a shameless thing!
So no matter what Hu Hailong said, Ye Kong shook his head. In the end, Ye Kong said, "Since you've given me face, I'll call you Brother Hu. I'll tell you frankly, there are places in this world that I can't go, but there's no place that I can't leave!"
As soon as Ye Kong said this, the cultivator standing behind Hu Hailong immediately cried out in his heart. This kid is really arrogant. There's no place in this world that can keep you? Even my Sect Leader, Hu Ke, wouldn't dare say such a thing!
However, since he said so, Hu Hailong couldn't stop him. He could only smile bitterly and say, "Then, Friend Ye, take care of yourself."
Ye Kong smiled and patted Hu Hailong's shoulder. "Don't worry, I promise that when the time comes, your father won't be able to wait to drive me away."
In fact, Ye Kong also had a plan. Don't you love talents? I don't know anything, and I don't know anything. I'll just pretend to be stupid. I'm not a talent, I'm just a piece of trash. Do you still want me?
However, obviously, Ye had somewhat underestimated Zhen Yi's intelligence and overestimated his ability to control himself.
The Star Boat continued sailing for a whole month. During this period, Ye Kong and Hu Hailong talked about their experiences in array formations. Hu Hailong learned a lot, and Ye Kong learned a lot of new things. This was what Hu Hailong liked to know. The more they talked, the more they got along, and the closer they became.
In their spare time, they had more contact with Yi Manying. People were strange. When they fell in love with each other, all the hatred and worries they had in the past disappeared. Sometimes, when they looked at each other and smiled, they would feel something different, and their hearts would pound.
Ye Kong couldn't help but sigh. It was said that love didn't matter. This Old Man was almost two hundred years old, but he still had the heart of his first love.
Ye Kong was almost two hundred years old. He had cultivated for 160 years in the Mustard Seed Tower three times. Adding the years he had lived in the outside world, he was more than 190 years old. In fact, it wasn't a big deal for him to reach Yuanying in 190 years. However, other people didn't know about the Mustard Seed Tower and thought that he had advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage in thirty years.
During this month, Ye Kong had been paying attention to the direction of the Star Boat. To his surprise, the Star Boat had been sailing straight towards the fiery Giant Food Star! According to the information provided by the pirates, there weren't any new realms or planets here.
Could it be that the new realm of the Pawnshop Devil Sect was built inside the Giant Food Star? Ye Kong guessed.
Needless to say, he really guessed it correctly.
One day after a month, the Star Boat finally arrived at the edge of the Giant Food Star.
It was like an incomparably thick red barrier that completely blocked the sky. Although the surface temperature of the Giant Food Star was very low, one could still feel the raging heat when they arrived.
Ye Kong and Yi Manying stood on the front deck. Yi Manying was in front, and Ye Kong was in the back. He could see the fine beads of sweat on the back of Yi Manying's slender, swan-like neck … It was said that beauties were fragrant sweat. I wonder if this is true. A certain someone thought shamelessly.
Yi Manying, who was standing in front, was naturally unaware of a certain someone's shameless thoughts. She sighed and said, "When I heard you say that the surface of the red giant is very far from the center, I thought you were just bragging. But now it seems that you're right."
Hu Hailong, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said with a smile, "So Brother Ye has done some research on the galaxies of the underworld. But why haven't I heard you mention it in the past month?"
Ye Kong said, "Speaking of which, I'm afraid that you'll be scared if I tell you!"
Hu Hailong said doubtfully, "Scared? Why would I be scared? Although it is rumored that this Giant Food Star can even devour planets, it is still very safe inside. Furthermore, it is incomparably spacious, and with the natural barrier outside, it can be said to be a paradise inside. Our Pawnshop Devil Sect searched for a long time before finding this place. "
Before Ye Kong could say anything, Yi Manying said, "But this red giant is the last stage of a star's life. When its energy is exhausted and it expands to its limit, it will explode. When that happens, even the Black Pirate Planet will be affected, not to mention the new realm you've built here."
Hu Hailong hurriedly shook his head in disbelief. "How is that possible? I think this Giant Food Star is very stable. It's pure nonsense to say that it will explode. "
Ye Kong smiled bitterly and said, "That's why I won't tell you about it. But the explosion won't happen so quickly. It might take tens of thousands of years, or even millions of years. Let those who come after us suffer."
Hu Hailong still didn't believe it. He shook his head and said, "The ancient records have recorded that the red giant is like this. We believe that it won't explode … Let's not talk about this. In a while, our Star Boat will enter the red barrier. You should know that this red barrier is a good thing. Not only can it ensure that we won't be discovered, but other Star Boats can't pass through it except with the special spell formation we've developed. Just wait and see!"
With these words, Hu Hailong immediately ordered his subordinates to activate the spell formation. The faint golden spell formation around the Star Boat changed. To everyone's surprise, an ice-attributed spell formation appeared on the outermost layer. This ice-attributed spell formation was powered by ice-attributed spirit stones. Who knew how many ice-attributed spirit stones it would cost to pass through this spell formation?
Ye Kong couldn't help but sigh. "Your Pawnshop Devil Sect is really rich."
Hu Hailong laughed heartily. "Even with the protection of the spell formation, the Star Boat will still be a little hot. Everyone, if you have nothing to do, just take a shower. In ten days, we will be able to break through this barrier. When that time comes, our Pawnshop Devil Sect will have a new realm. We call it the Red Planet!"
