Chapter 429 I Really Will Beat You to Death
Hongdao Port.
Ye Kang returned to the dimly lit alley, where Gao Bucong was anxiously waiting.
Upon seeing Ye Kang, he immediately cupped his hands in thanks: "Thank you so much, Brother Kaishan, for saving my life! If it weren't for your reminder, I would have definitely encountered that Grandmaster."
Ye Kang smiled slightly: "That's to be expected. It's rather strange that the mine is so heavily guarded."
"The Bloodstone mine is extremely valuable, so it's understandable that the three major families would invest heavily in it. But who exactly is that Grandmaster? I'm certain that only the heads of the three families are Grandmasters; there has never been a fourth one."
Gao Bucong clenched his fists, his suspicions about the mine deepening.
It was almost dawn, and Ye Kang said, "Since that's the case, we can't rush things. Brother Gao, you should go back first."
"Brother Kaishan, what do you mean by this! Are you perhaps giving up?"
"No, it's just that the situation is unclear right now, and if we make a move, we'll definitely be exposed."
"That makes sense. With Brother Kaishan's help, I believe we can definitely save those rogue cultivators!"
"Brother Gao, you flatter me too much. By the way, do you know where Chu Dayou was assassinated?"
Gao Bucong nodded: "Of course, right on the South Shore beach, Chu Dayou was attacked by assassins. The two fought a fierce battle and both disappeared."
Ye Kang bowed and thanked him, saying, "In that case, I shall take my leave."
"Don't worry, Brother Kaishan! I have a feeling that Chu Dayou might be in the Beishan Mine!"
Gao Bucong looked determined, having great faith in his sixth sense.
Ye Kang smiled, said nothing more, and the two left separately.
soon.
On the south shore beach, Ye Kang, having regained his appearance as Liu Ci, arrived just as sunrise.
The beach is long and very flat, and as you go forward, any traces that remain have long been washed away by the sea.
Just then, two familiar figures entered Ye Kang's senses.
Chu Yan'er and her servant Chu San were standing on a distant reef, gazing at the sea.
"Third Uncle, will my father be in trouble?"
"Young Miss, please don't think like that. The head of the family will definitely come back."
“My father always explained the reasons to me when he left home before, but I’ve never felt this desperate before.”
Chu Yan'er's eyes were red and swollen, clearly from crying quite a bit.
At this moment, Ye Kangfei arrived.
"What a coincidence, you two!"
He still maintained his carefree and generous demeanor.
Upon hearing this, Chu San immediately frowned: "Why would he be here?"
Chu Yan'er was also surprised: "It's you!"
"It is indeed me, Liu. Miss Yan'er, what brings you to the beach so early in the morning?"
Chu Yan'er said in a low voice, "My father has not returned, so I often come here to wait. What about you?"
"I, Liu, enjoy traveling the world, so naturally I wanted to visit every corner of this Red Island. I heard that the scenery on the south shore beach is quite nice, so I came to take a look."
"Then you've really been fooled. The south bank is barren and far less scenic than the east and north banks."
"Hahaha! What's so difficult about that? There's plenty of time. We can look at them one by one. Miss Yan'er, I've heard about your father's situation. There's no need to worry. I believe Chu Yingxiong will be alright."
"Thank you."
Chu Yan'er smiled, then looked at the sea again.
"If it were really as you say, that would be great."
As soon as she finished speaking, several dark figures suddenly flew out from under the sea.
Chu San was startled and was about to protect the young lady when he saw Liu Ci leap forward from behind, throw a punch, and send all the attacking black shadows flying.
Ye Kang smiled, not expecting such an unexpected gain—someone had actually tried to assassinate Chu Yan'er.
"Well done!"
He roared and his fists rained down, and in an instant, all the dark figures rose to the surface.
Of course, Ye Kang was also carrying two trembling men in black.
With a forceful shove, the two terrified Eight-Leaf Masters collapsed onto the beach.
The two men hurriedly begged for mercy: "Hero, spare our lives! Hero, spare our lives! This is our first time doing this!"
Ye Kang was completely bewildered. These assassins didn't seem very professional.
Chu San, protecting Chu Yan'er, also angrily shouted, "Who are you! Why are you trying to assassinate the young lady!"
A man in black shook his head frantically: "It's not an assassination! It's not an assassination! We just want to kidnap this girl and sell her to be a cultivation vessel!"
Snapped!
Ye Kang slapped the man, knocking out his teeth, and then stomped down with his right foot on his head.
"If you don't tell the truth, your head will explode."
Ye Kang exerted a little force, and the man in black, already terrified, widened his pupils and shouted frantically, "Speak! Speak! We were sent by the mine manager! He wants us to capture Chu Yan'er so that Chu Dayou will show himself!"
"what!"
Chu San exclaimed in surprise, but Chu Yan'er only frowned slightly, without showing any surprise.
Ye Kang's senses captured this scene with unparalleled clarity.
Seemingly sensing Ye Kang's perception, Chu Yan'er quickly spoke up: "How could this be! Isn't the mine manager a member of the Hou family?"
Ye Kang continued to press harder: "So who are you people?"
"Spare us! We're from the Loose Cultivator Alliance; we're just doing things for money, we really don't know anything else!"
Ye Kang thought to himself, "Just as I thought."
There are many independent cultivators on Red Island, and Gao Buyi is not the only one from the Independent Cultivator Alliance.
Ye Kang continued, "How much money did they take? Where did they send the arrested people?"
“Fifty thousand spirit crystals each! He said we can do whatever we want with them, take them wherever we want…”
"Let you do whatever you want with me? Interesting."
Ye Kang's lips curled into a smile, he had probably guessed something.
These rogue cultivators were basically cannon fodder. If Chu Dayou were nearby, how could they possibly escape the powerful divine sense perception of a Divine Sea Realm cultivator?
If Chu Dayou makes a move, these people will surely die.
Of course, the person behind it all achieved their goal.
Once the people are lured out, the rest will be dealt with by the assassins of the Kuanglan Society.
Ye Kang stretched out his hand: "Hand over the spirit crystals. You dare to accept ill-gotten gains?"
The two men in black dared not resist and immediately offered up all the spirit crystals.
Ye Kang accepted their ill-gotten gains and immediately put them into his own pocket.
At the same time, Chu San, his expression furious, gritted his teeth and said, "It was them! How could the Hou and Xu families, both of the three great families, do such a thing! They are utterly depraved!"
Chu Yan'er sighed and said, "Third Uncle, let's pretend we don't know anything."
"what!"
Chu Yan'er shook her head: "Father isn't here, we can't turn against each other."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a faint voice echoed.
"The Hou family and the Xu family? This guy didn't seem to mention the Xu family's name, did he?"
Ye Kang turned his head and stared at Chu San.
The latter shuddered instantly, breaking out in a cold sweat.
"What do you mean! I just blurted it out, who knows if the Xu family was involved!"
Ye Kang didn't waste words with him. He activated his Azure Eyes of Innocent Delusion and said, "These eyes of mine can see through lies. If you don't tell the truth, I will know."
Chu San was stunned for a moment, then said disdainfully, "Absurd, how could someone in the Lotus Realm learn such a martial art?"
boom!
Ye Kang threw a punch, and Chu San's vision went black as he fell to the ground uncontrollably.
"You're right, I don't know this kind of martial art, but I really will kill you."
