Martial Peak

”

“Supreme Elder!?” He Zao and He Miao were shocked.
They hadn’t expected this old guy with such a detestable aura to actually be their Sect’s Supreme Elder.

But since Yang Kai had said so, there would naturally be no mistake.

They immediately converged their thoughts, bowed and greeted Gui Zu earnestly, “Disciple greets Supreme Elder!”

“Hahaha!” Gui Zu suddenly started laughing like crazy.
He looked very proud.
He forced a kind smile, raised his hand, and said, “Relax, relax! You girls are pretty good.
Well, since we are meeting for the first time, this Old Man will have to give you some gifts.”

“Ah!?” It never occurred to He Zao and He Miao that they would receive such benefits by just greeting.
Amazed, they looked at Yang Kai for his opinion.

Yang Kai looked at Gui Zu with a strange look.
He could easily guess that Gui Zu, who had been alone for so long, was feeling a little complacent after suddenly becoming the Supreme Elder of High Heaven Sect and respected by the disciples so much.

Otherwise, why would he give them any gifts after just meeting the Sect disciples?

None of the other Sects’ Supreme Elders was so generous.

All Supreme Elders were symbolic existences.
They were the target of every disciple’s admiration and worship.
Only those disciples who had made great contributions to the sect or had outstanding aptitude would be eligible to meet them in person, let alone receive some advice and gifts.

By acting like this, Gui Zu might have shown the amiability of a Supreme Elder, but it was at the expense of his majesty.

However, that didn’t matter, it was a novel experience for him.
How could Yang Kai stop it? He smiled and said, “Since Supreme Elder is gifting you, take it.”

He Zao and He Miao were overjoyed.
They immediately thanked, “Thank you, Supreme Elder.”

“Mhmm.” Gui Zu smiled in return.
He took out two copper lock-like things from his Space Ring as if he was already prepared.
He waved his hand and said as the two copper locks floated to He Zao and He Miao, “This is a set of Twin Lock artifacts.
They are not used for fighting, but to assist in cultivation.
Refine them separately, and when you cultivate with these Twin Locks in the future, they will help you two reach the ‘One Heart and Soul State,’ doubling your cultivation efficiency.”

“How generous of Supreme Elder!” Yang Kai’s eyes lit up immediately.
Although this set of artifacts weren’t high-grade, just releasing Mid-Rank Origin Grade fluctuations, these kinds of auxiliary artifacts were extremely rare.
They were especially suitable for siblings like He Zao and He Miao.

Clearly, Gui Zu had noticed that they were related by blood, so he especially gave them these Twin Locks.

Gui Zu smiled and didn’t say anything, acting like a powerful master.

He Zao and He Miao sisters took the Twin Locks and played with them joyfully.

“Ask your master to come and see me.
I have something to ask her,” having said this, Yang Kai left the hall with Gui Zu and moved to the bedroom.

Yue Xi rushed over after a short while.
She must have heard about Gui Zu from He Zao and He Miao, as she didn’t look that surprised after meeting Gui Zu.
Rather she generously bowed to Gui Zu.

“How did the Sect Master’s trip go?”

In the bedroom, Yang Kai and Gui Zu were sitting apart.
Yue Xi stood before the right-hand seat and asked in a gentle voice.

“It was okay! Did anything unusual happen during my absence? Did any ignorant people come looking for trouble?” Yang Kai took a sip of tea and asked indifferently.

“Nothing happened.
Now, everyone on Azure Tree Star knows that Twin Shark Island is under Senior Luo Lan’s shelter, so no one dares to come here and seek their deaths.
The cultivators are also living peacefully on the island, and would pay Saint Crystals as tribute every month.”

“That’s better! Did anyone come from the High Heaven Sect?”

“I was just about to report it to the Sect Master.” Yue Xi smiled slightly with grace.
“Many people have come from the High Heaven Sect after Sect Master left.
This Disciple has written down their names.
Sect Master, please check.”

Having said this, she stepped forward and offered a sheet of beast hide.

Yang Kai went through it and found Qian Tong, Yang Xiu Zhu, Lin Yu Rao, Chu Han Yi, Mu Yu, and others’ names on it.
Except for Qian Tong, who was in Origin King Realm, everyone else had reached the peak of Third-Order Origin Returning Realm.

Their purpose was self-evident: They wanted to use the World Principles of Azure Tree Star to attack the barrier of Origin King Realm.

“Huh, Great Elder has also come?” Yang Kai was puzzled at the sight of Ye Xi Yun’s name on the list.
Ye Xi Yun had once said that she wanted to protect Yang Yan.
Before the Great Emperor woke up, she would never leave the High Heaven Sect.
[And yet she had come to Azure Tree Star.
Could it be…]

Having considered everything, Yang Kai was stunned.
He hurriedly asked, “When did the Great Elder arrive?”

“Great Elder Ye arrived three months ago.”

“Do you know where she is now?”

Judging by the eager look on Yang Kai’s face, Yue Xi knew that this was important.
She immediately answered in embarrassment, “This Disciple only knows that Temple Master Qian is currently in Azure Tree Palace to discuss the profundities of Origin King Realm.
As for the others… Please forgive me, Sect Master.
Disciple has no idea where they have gone.
After arriving here, every Elder only told Disciple that they are leaving to search for a secret place to enter retreat.
Therefore…”

“Hmm, I’m not blaming you for this, you don’t have to rebuke yourself.” Yang Kai said in a comforting voice.
Ye Xi Yun and the others came here to break through to the Origin King Realm, so they went looking for a suitable place for their retreat.
Azure Tree Star was so big, and they could easily find a secluded spot.
How would Yue Xi know where they were?
