Looking at the bloodstains scattered across the beach.
Yang Ming, though lifeless, still had eyes filled with resentment.
Kang Cheng looked up at Ye Qiubai in shock and asked, "Did you do all this?"
Ye Qiubai nodded.
I saw that the other party admitted it.
Kang Cheng stood up, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Ye Qiubai, and said, "Thank you, Brother Ye."
However, my face also felt a little hot.
Recalling what I said earlier, I felt somewhat inferior to the other party's strength.
Now, not only have they saved Kang Haiqiong, but they have also taken care of all of the other side's people.
Even I couldn't do that...
Ye Qiubai waved his hand and said, "You saved me, so it's only right that I help you."
Upon hearing Ye Qiubai's words, Kang Cheng seemed to have thought of something, opened his mouth, but then closed it again.
It seemed like there was something she wanted to say, but she hesitated.
Seeing this, Ye Qiubai asked, "Is there anything else I can help you with?"
Seeing that the other party had brought it up, Kang Cheng said, " Brother Ye, could you help our Kang Lineage one more time?"
Kang Haiqiong frowned upon hearing this and said, " Kang Cheng, don't make things difficult for Ye Qiubai! He saved me, and I've already repaid the favor!"
Ye Qiubai laughed and said, "It's nothing. I'm new here and have some questions to ask. Consider this my payment."
Along the way.
Kang Cheng explained the situation to Ye Qiubai: "Currently, the Yang Lineage's top power is stronger than our Kang Lineage's."
" The Yang Lineage has one Peak Dao Integration Realm and one Late-Stage Dao Integration Realm expert, while our Kang Lineage only has two Late-Stage Dao Integration Realm."
Although they are only separated by a minor realm.
However, once you reach the Dao Integration Realm, even a minor realm can have vastly different levels.
"Currently, the Yang Lineage is wary of the Kang Lineage's trump cards, fearing that we will fight them to the death, and the City Lord's Manor will profit from it, so they have not launched a full-scale attack."
"Therefore, after discussions, both sides decided to rely on the younger generation of each Lineage to conduct a best-of-three competition to determine the ownership of the sea area."
Kang Haiqiong chimed in, "Both sides can hire an outside helper. It's said that the Yang Lineage has invited an inner disciple from the Wangyun Sky Azure Domain Cloud-Gazing Sect."
"And that inner disciple has already reached the Late-Stage Spirit Division Realm..."
Qinghai City is a border city of the Sky Azure Domain.
Late-Stage Spirit Division Realm?
Ye Qiubai nodded slightly.
With Ye Qiubai's current strength, he probably still needs to make some preparations to reach this level.
However, drawing the Azure Cloud Sword is an option.
However, Ye Qiubai would not Lai Qingyun Sword unless absolutely necessary.
"When does it begin?"
Kang Haiqiong replied, "Seven days later."
The group returned to the Kang Lineage.
Kang Haiqiong and Kang Cheng then led Ye Qiubai to the family head's mansion.
The head of the Kang Lineage, Kang Yao, is a powerful expert in the Late-Stage Dao Integration Realm.
I've heard about it.
Kang Yao looked at Ye Qiubai and nodded slightly, saying, "Thank you for your help, young friend. However, the other party is inner disciple the Cloud-Gazing Sect Late-Stage Spirit Division Realm, I'm afraid..."
The elders standing to the side also frowned.
"Isn't this ridiculous? How can someone who hasn't even reached the Spirit Division Realm compete with the opponent?"
"Isn't this just handing over the sea?"
" Kang Cheng, how can we entrust the Kang Lineage to you when you are so immature?"
Hearing the elders' sarcastic remarks.
Ye Qiubai wasn't angry; he simply smiled faintly and asked, "Does your Kang Lineage have any younger members, or other outside help, who can shoulder this important responsibility?"
Kang Haiqiong and Kang Cheng, who were standing to the side, both blushed.
Their talent is decent, but it's not enough when facing the inner disciple of top-tier forces in the Sky Azure Domain.
Kang Yao also sighed slightly.
Faced with the power of the Yang Lineage, the Kang Lineage simply couldn't get any outside help!
This has led to outsiders having a very negative view of the Kang Lineage.
In fact, a conclusion has already been reached.
The Kang Lineage is destined to lose this contest!
The elders' faces flushed red, but what Ye Qiubai said was true and they could not refute it.
Kang Yao carefully examined Ye Qiubai, noticing that the other party had a faint smile on his face and showed no fear in his eyes even after hearing the other party's identity.
Yes, but only a little bit of Battle Intent remained.
He gritted his teeth and nodded, saying, "Alright! Young friend Ye, I'm entrusting this matter to you. If you succeed, just give the word in the future, and the Kang Lineage will do everything in our power to help you!"
Ye Qiubai shook his head and said, "I'm only doing this to repay a debt of gratitude."
After saying that, he left the mansion.
He has seven days left; he needs to cultivate.
These days I've been cultivating in the Cottage, sparring with my junior brothers and sisters, and receiving occasional guidance from Lu Changsheng.
Ye Qiubai felt that his Sword Intent had reached its peak.
All it takes is a trigger to make another breakthrough!
Meanwhile, inside the mansion...
The First Elder asked worriedly, "Patriarch, is it really appropriate to entrust this matter to him?"
The Third Elder chimed in, "If all else fails, we should agree to the City Lord's Manor's plan and marry Haiqiong off to him."
"With the City Lord's Manor's mansion's connections, it should be quite easy to bring in an outsider who is no weaker than the other side."
"No!"
Kang Yao said with a gloomy face, "I wouldn't do something like selling my daughter for personal gain!"
"Besides, what good is the City Lord's Manor? Even if she marries into it, wouldn't the Kang Lineage covet her sea territory?"
"After all, there seems to be some kind of divine object beneath our seas. Would the City Lord's Manor let our Kang Lineage off the hook?"
The elders remained silent.
"Rather than this, we might as well fight to the death!"
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
Ye Qiubai opened his eyes and withdrew the Sword Intent around him.
There has been some improvement.
But there was still no breakthrough.
Ye Qiubai was not in a hurry.
After all, the most taboo thing on the path of cultivation is to be impatient.
Kang Haiqiong arrived at Ye Qiubai's residence and said, " Brother Ye, let's begin."
The tone was gentle.
But one could still detect a faint hint of worry in his voice.
" Brother Ye, if it doesn't work out, you should leave. No one will blame you."
Ye Qiubai smiled and said, "With your personality, you're likely to suffer a great loss in this world."
Kang Haiqiong was slightly taken aback.
"However, it is because of people like you that this cold-blooded and ruthless world of cultivation still retains some warmth."
Keep it up.
Kang Haiqiong smiled slightly after hearing this.
The worries and tension in my heart were also greatly dispelled.
The two arrived at the fighting arena together.
The Yang Lineage has already arrived here.
The City Lord's Manor, as a neutral party, attended as a referee.
Seeing the arrival of the Kang Lineage.
The head of the Yang Lineage sneered, " Kang Yao, is this the outside help you invited?"
"How about we just admit defeat? Maybe then I can spare the lives of your Kang Lineage."
Kang Yao's face was grim. "The matter is still unresolved. Isn't it premature for Patriarch Yang Lineage to draw such a conclusion?"
Patriarch Yang Lineage sneered, "What, do you really expect someone at the Emperor Realm to be able to contend with someone at the Late-Stage Spirit Division Realm?"
"Or are you placing your hopes on those two younger members of your Kang Lineage?"
At this moment.
Tian Yijian, the city lord of Qinghai City, interrupted their conversation, saying, "Now that everyone is here, let's begin. Both sides, please begin!"
P. S.: Four chapters done, goodnight.
