Chapter 25: Heaven's Class Inheritance (3)
While walking, the group members would look around. Naturally, most of their gaze would land on the statues around them, not being able to help but to highly appraise these statues to be life-like.
As Yang Kai looked around, he noticed that one of the statues had a faint dark red color on it. When he moved closer, he could smell a tinge of blood scent from the statue.
Suddenly, the surrounding statues all simultaneously moved!
The two statues beside Du Yishuang raised their fist and quickly pounded her. Their strength was enough to crumble rocks. With a fist size of a cooking pot, even with Du Yishuang's cultivation level, she would still be seriously injured.
When Du Yishuang realized the impending danger, she quickly released her Yuan Qi. Immediately, the peaceful and good-natured girl had a change in an aura.
However, Du Yishuang showed amazing proficiency in controlling her strength as not once did her face showed fear, panic or anger. Instead, she remained calm and composed.
She turns around, placing her palm to redirect the attack of one of the stone figures. Meanwhile, she also moved her body backward, to avoid the other stone figure's attack. However, she underestimated the speed of the second stone statue's attack as its palm was about to land on her slender shoulder.
Suddenly, Du Yishuang heard a voice behind her. "Move!" her body became light as someone pulled on the collar of her clothing. In front of her, a palm stretched out and hit the first stone statue's fist.
Once the first stone statue's fist was going to land a clear distance away, Yang Kai quickly jumped as he pulled Du Yishuang back. Hastily, the two took the opportunity to retreat.
*Bang*, the sound of the first stone Statue's fist finally landed on the ground. The five retreating figures all had cold sweat run down their spine. Suddenly, they hear the sound of galloping as the earth slightly trembled. When they looked back, they found that the hundreds of stone statues were managing to chase up to them. No one would expect that these stone statues were capable of moving at such high speeds!
Seeing that they were coming closer he smiled and turn around and fled towards the stone statues and one by one he began attacking them, and with each punch there is always one to fall.
As he goes deeper and deeper, the flat grassy floor turned into concrete. Without much time till the stone statues all return, Yang Kai did not take much time to check every area for safety.
Hastily, he ran deeper. Finally, he saw it. At the center of the area, there was a gigantic pit. Around this pit and inside were guarded by stone statues that seemed to be more aggressive than the ones he normally baits around.
He started injecting all his true Qi in them. They began absorbing them frantically until one point shattered leaving stone baby statues he collected them, then he returned to the group.
He came to Du Yishuang he give her one baby stone and asked her to cultivate this martial skill. He then followed them, they didn't ask them and he also doesn't said anything as he was going to abandon this group very soon, but not before taking Du Yishuang with him.
Along the way, the group had run into the corpses of disciples from the three schools. Although the group did not know what these dead disciples encountered during their exploration here, these corpses became a strong reminder to stay alert and vigilant.
One the group entered a jungle area, they breathed out a sigh of relief. The number of corpses and possible hidden dangers of the previous area gave the group a sense of constant danger. Seeing this new location, and made them feel a short-lived sense of safety. Furthermore, in a jungle, the existence of Spirit Herbs is definitely not going to be a few.
The team quickly regained their vigilance as they walked through the jungle.
After walking for a while with Zuo an lead the path, Zuo an's brow wrinkled as he concentrated on the floor. There were numerous footprints.
After a short moment, Zuo An exclaimed, " There were definitely a group of people that passed by recently. What's more, this group is big."
Nie Yong Happily sounded off. "Then there should be guys from our schools!"
Zuo an's brow wrinkled. "Let's not decide so haphazardly. We can't be sure that only disciples from the three schools are inside the Heaven's Cave Inheritance."
As the group followed the trail, they saw more and more footprint on the ground. After half a day, the group saw a small lake. Around the lake were numerous footprints that covered the place this place must be a safe spot.
After a short discussion within the group, they decide to rest up first before proceeding with anything else.
All five dispersed around and sat in meditation to rest. After a while, Lan Chudie stood up from her meditation and sat beside Du Yishuang. She whispered to the frail-looking girl in a soft voice. Initially, Du Yishuang shook her head slowly but after contemplating for a while more she clenched her teeth and nodded while blushing.
Afterwards, Lan Chudie arrives in front of Yang Kai and pat on his shoulder.
"What?" Yang Kai asked as he looks at Lan Chudie.
Lan Chudie said "junior brother... I have a request".
Yang Kai's brows wrinkled. Although he did know what she was about to request, he followed her.
Lan Chudie blushes with a smile, "Little sister Du and I want to take a bath here…"
Yang Kai cannot help but chuckle. "Lan Female Apprentice, why do you ask me of all people? For this matter, you should have asked Nie Yong. That boy will certainly agree to your request!"
Lan Chudie could not help but get angry, "Of course it's because I trust you more than him."
"Lan Female Apprentice, you trust me?" Yang Kai smiled. "If you shower, I will definitely peep"
Lan Chudie smiled back at Yang Kai. "If you did so, I don't mind. However, what would Little Sister Du say?"
"Alright then. Just bath quickly." Yang Kai nodded.
Seeing him comply, Lan Chudie smiled. "Thanks. Please stay here while we bathe."
Du Yishuang pulled on Yang Kai's arm and urged the boy. "You absolutely cannot peek!"
"After you say that I will not peek not until you yourself said so, don't worry." Yang Kai answered with a thick face.
Du Yishuang blushing pinch on Yang Kai's waist. "You!...pervert!"
There was a small water body nearby, which has a giant stone by the side that acts as a natural wall. So long as the two girls hid behind the stone, it would be hard for anyone to peek at them.
*Splash* those two girls entered the water body as Yang Kai went to the place that could see them. Naturally, as they entered, both girls secretly checked if Yang Kai turned his head around to peek. Of course, Yang Kai did not pay attention to them. He sat down and meditated. As long as someone wants to peek, he would need to pass Yang Kai's position.
While meditating, Yang Kai could hear a faint sound of footsteps coming closer. When Yang Kai opened his eyes and looked around, he saw Nie Yong creeping up softly. He was breathing heavily as his slowly slid his head to peek behind the huge rock.
Noticing Yang Kai's gaze, Nie Yong turned his head and returned a despising smile, threatening him. "You have seen nothing. If you dare say anything, I will personally make sure that you will no longer be able to walk!"
Yang Kai rolled his eyes and scoffed. Nie Yong actually thought that he was afraid. Without wasting much time, Yang Kai quickly ran forward.
The laughter of the two girls and the splashing of the water acted like demons whispering to Nie Yong's ear. As he thought about Lan Chudie's smooth skin and plentiful brėȧst, his heart boiled; making it impossible for him to resist the temptation.
The boy then quickly walked, following the sound to see this huge rock blocking his view of paradise.
Yang Kai sneers as he breathed in as much air as possible and shouted "Nie Fellow Apprentice. What are you doing over there?!!!"
Abruptly, the sound of water splashing and laughter from the two girls paused.
With their silence and the blaring sounds of moving water, anyone could tell that the two girls were scuttling to get their clothing.
Nie Yong quickly reacted. The boy got startled and jumped. He hastily ran off, only leaving Yang Kai with a gaze filled with hatred. Never would he have imagined that Yang Kai would dare to offend him.
He really liked making the fun with him, ha haa...
Soon after, Lan Chudie and Du Yishuang appeared from behind the rock. They were drenched but clothed. Du Yishuang was blushing while her eyes avoided his. Meanwhile, Lan Chudie looked at Yang Kai indifferently and muttered, "Thank You."
"Don't worry about it." Yang Kai replied.
The three's faces paled as they started to realize what the source of the roar was. There are Monster Beasts here!?
What's more, it sounded like there were hordes of people battling this one Monster Beast!
Nie Yong and Zuo an ran out from the bushes and joined the three. Their complexion was no better than Lan Chudie and Du Yishuang's.
Du Yishuang stared at Nie Yong with disgust. Meanwhile, Lan Chudie kept calm and asked Zuo An. "What can you recognize from the sounds?"
Zuo an's voice sank as he spoke. "There are more than a hundred people there. What's more, from the power of its roar, the Monster Beast they are fighting is horrifically in the Sixth Realm!"
Everyone froze as their skin turned a shade paler. A Sixth Realm Monster Beast was equivalent to a cultivator in the Immortal Ascension Boundary.
Those that entered the Heaven's Cave Inheritance were disciples that were at most in True Element Boundary. How could they possibly face this Monster Beast? Even with a hundred people, this battle is nothing more than suicide for all of them.
"This Monster's roar seems weaker than a usual Sixth Realm Monster Beast," Zuo an brows furrowed. "It is likely that it was sealed previously and had just regained consciousness."
Lan Chudie's eyebrows wrinkled as she contemplated for a long time before looking back at all four members. "Let's go and have a look. There are bound to be disciples there who are in True Element Boundary, as well as Separation and Reunion Boundary. Since we are all from the same school, we are obliged to help. However, this is highly dangerous, so it is up to you to decide."
After a long time, they came across a large group of disciples gathered together.
Then, a familiar voice vocalized, "Fang Ziji! Do you and your Storm House believe that we are so weak to be taken advantaged by you? Do you believe that you have the skills to force us to do as you please?"
"Wu Fellow Apprentice!" Nie Yong called out in delight.
"What did you say?" Wu Tiao said coldly.
Fang Ziji snorted. "Only Su Yan from High Heaven Pavilion can be considered my match!" he chuckled.
"Then how about you try me out?"
"If you persist, I do not mind. However, I do not wish for someone like you to be humiliated in front of all your Fellow Apprentices."
Although Wu Tiaok knew that he was currently not a match to Fang Ziji, with the disciples watching him, he could not back down. Just when Wu Tiao was about to attack, Nie Yong ran out from the jungle bushes and shouted. "Wu Fellow Apprentice!"
When Wu Tiao heard his familiar voice, he immediately turned his head, frown transitioning into a smile. "Nie Fellow Apprentice! We finally meet again!"
Nie Yong quickly rushed to join the group of High Heaven Pavilion Disciples.
The other four took their time to follow. Since Du Yishuang and Zuo an were not High Heaven Pavilion disciples, it will be hard to join them. As for Yang Kai, he also separated from the group.
Du Yishuang whispered to Yang Kai. "I thank you for your kindness and support for these past few days. It's regrettable that we must part…"
Yang Kai smiles and nods, "It's alright. I understand. Be safe" and moved closer and give her a kiss on her lips. "Visit me after coming out"
Yang kai take out a simple ring and apply some space runes on it which can move her to him if she was in danger.
He slides it to her finger. He closed his distance and said to his ear "take care". Then he left from there.
Seeing the retreating figure he was about to say something but decided against it. Unexpectedly she has a strong heart, she liked him a little but not to that point, but she sure has some feeling for him. (Well...there is hope).
