Chapter 285 Extreme Realm 9th Grade
Ye Kang first went back to the death row.
After all, this was where he made his fortune, and he also held the responsibility of overseeing the Death Prison, but he had pushed all of this work onto Jin Baobei.
But I still have to come and take a look.
He still carried two jars of peach blossom wine, and without notifying anyone, he strolled into the prison cell and handed them over to the half-dead monk.
The other person smelled the alcohol and immediately jumped up. When he saw that it was Ye Kang, he was stunned.
He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Ye Kang didn't say anything, and turned to leave.
Upon arriving at the Death Prison Commander's office, Jinbaobei was fast asleep, sprawled on the desk.
It's been a long time since I've seen her. She has also reached the first-grade innate level. It seems that she is becoming more and more secure in her position.
Ye Kang flicked his finger, waking Jin Baobei up.
Just as she was about to get angry, she met Ye Kang's gaze.
"Master Ye!"
Gymboree's expression instantly brightened, and she started grinning mischievously.
"So it's Lord Ye who's back. You can have the seat; I'll stand."
"No need, I just came to check on things. How are you? Are you settling in?"
Ye Kang casually flipped through the files on the table.
Jin Baobei was stunned for a moment: "I'm used to it! I'm born to be a warden! It's really comfortable to be paid by the emperor. No wonder Lord Ye likes to be his lackey so much, hehe."
"You're quite perceptive."
"Thanks to Lord Ye's influence, by the way, I'll hire someone to clean your house every day, I guarantee it will be spotless, all the things the Emperor bestowed upon you are inside, there's nothing to worry about."
"Well done, then stay here and keep working hard. The best is yet to come."
"That's right, that's right, but wait a minute? Aren't you going home?"
"I won't be coming back for a while, just continue as usual."
Ye Kang didn't say much and went straight to the point.
He asked, "So, have you gotten any results from interrogating those two Gu clan members?"
Gymboree nodded immediately, then shook her head.
"My lord, those two guys were interrogated by the commander himself, but they were very stubborn and we couldn't get anything out of them. All we know is that they came from Fuxian Town and were acting on the orders of a senior elder."
"Okay, you can continue. I'm leaving."
Ye Kang nodded and turned to leave.
Gymboree watched his retreating figure and couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
As expected of Lord Ye, he remained as composed as ever.
……
Ye Kang quickly mounted his horse and left the city without even returning to the Ye residence.
He doesn't plan to bring anyone else; it's much more convenient to do everything alone.
Although His Majesty did not give specific instructions during this inspection tour on behalf of Heaven, the Gu clan in Fuxian Town must definitely be dealt with.
Finding the culprit who attacked the princess would give His Majesty an explanation.
However, there is one more thing to do before heading to southern Xinjiang.
Ye Kang rode his horse southwest, crossed the great river, and arrived at a beautiful waterfall.
I don't know why, but waterfalls seem to be a good place to break through my limits, so I decided to do it here.
Ye Kang immersed himself in the waterfall, circulating his inner energy.
This time, he wanted to go all out and max out the Imperial Supreme Heaven-Piercing Skill.
After all, the Southwest region is renowned and has no shortage of grandmaster-level experts. To ensure absolute success, it is only natural to maximize combat strength.
"System, comprehend the Imperial Supreme Heaven-Piercing Technique."
【Ding】
[The host has expended their comprehension to successfully comprehend the tenth level of the Imperial Supreme Heaven-Piercing Technique]
[Congratulations, host, on achieving the Great Perfection of the Imperial Supreme Heaven-Piercing Technique and entering the Ninth Rank of the Ultimate Realm.]
In an instant, golden raindrops fell and merged into Ye Kang's body.
A series of dragon roars emanated from within his body, and golden true energy, like silken threads, covered him.
This time, without any enlightenment, Ye Kang's cultivation level leaped forward with just one breath, followed by an all-round improvement.
His physical body, soul, cultivation level, and true energy have all made great strides forward. In particular, he has become completely adept at using true energy. With a thought, he can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a hundred miles and use it for his own purposes.
He tried to extend his senses, and sure enough, the range of his senses expanded by half, and his mind and soul were clearer than ever before.
From this moment on, Ye Kang has reached the end of the Innate Realm; beyond that lies the Lotus Realm.
However, in terms of combat strength, even without using those trump cards, Ye Kang is now confident that he can fight against someone in the Lotus Realm.
After stabilizing his realm for a while, Ye Kang got up and left.
Time waits for no one. He needs enlightenment, a mission, and the opportunity to venture into more dangerous places.
……
a few days later.
Entrance to Southern Xinjiang.
Blackrock City.
An old man with one arm, wearing a straw hat and wrapped in burlap, walked into a secluded courtyard.
This villa is the private property of Liu Xingsi, the lord of Blackstone City, and he keeps a mistress inside.
After the one-armed old man went inside, he found Liu Xinsi, who was burly and strong, waving an iron fan and practicing martial arts in the cold wind.
"Lord Liu, I have arrived as promised."
The one-armed old man had a cold expression and a disdainful tone, showing no regard for the city lord.
Liu Xinsi wasn't annoyed at all. Instead, she ran over in a fawning manner and said, "Welcome, Senior Golden-Mouthed Diviner! I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"Hmph, I hope you're not trying to fool me."
The Golden-Mouthed Diviner sat down with a cold snort, his eyes filled with venomous resentment that sent chills down one's spine.
After his arm was severed by a single blow in Qiantang City, he fled all the way to the southern border.
There was nothing he could do; the imperial guards had intervened, and apart from the Southern Frontier, he had nowhere else to go.
The situation here is complex, and the worshippers will not easily set foot here.
I am here today because of Liu Xinsi's invitation. I heard that the emperor has sent Ye Kang to patrol the land on behalf of the emperor, so I came to discuss the revenge plan.
"Lord Liu, tell me, how do you plan to make your move?"
Liu Xinsi dragged a chair over and said with a smile, "Senior Divine Calculator, don't be anxious. Ye Kang has already set off. Judging from the days, he is not far away. However, he did not take the official road and his whereabouts are very secretive. If you want to intercept and kill him, you will have to take action."
The fortune teller with the golden mouth showed an impatient expression.
"I don't want to hear that. Let me ask you, are you sure Ye Kang came alone?"
"Don't worry, senior, it's confirmed that it was one person who left the city."
Upon hearing this, the Golden-Mouthed Calculator revealed a cruel expression.
"That night, Ye Kang's master severed my arm. I will not be able to sleep all night if I do not avenge this. Since the imperial guards are not easy to kill, I will kill his disciple to relieve my hatred!"
"What you say is true, senior. Blackrock City will certainly do everything in its power to help in this matter!"
"Why? Do you have a grudge against Ye Kang?"
"I am dissatisfied with you, senior. Although we have no grudges, I cannot let Ye Kang leave Southern Xinjiang alive. After all, he is on behalf of Heaven to patrol the border. If he finds out about Black Stone City, my life will be over."
"Oh?"
The fortune teller smiled disdainfully and didn't ask any further questions.
In this chaotic frontier region, anyone who manages to survive has a long criminal record; colluding with rebels and forming alliances with Buddhist states are commonplace here.
Ye Kang's inspection tour on behalf of Heaven is clearly aimed at eliminating these people, so it's better to strike first.
Liu Xinsi is probably not the only one who thinks this way.
In the Southern Frontier right now, apart from the Azure Scale Guards who are being held back by the White Lotus Sect and the Gu Clan, everyone else is probably watching him closely, thinking about how to kill this "Imperial Envoy".
