Chapter 1016,: 1016,
“You have something you need from me, naturally you won’t risk my life,” Yang Kai scorned .
“If I didn’t, do you think this old master would have tolerated your insolence for so long?” Gui Zu snickered coldly, “Enough nonsense, this old master didn’t know you were proficient in the Space Principle, but it’s not too late to have learned now . Come with this old master and we can cooperate to find a way out of here . How about it?”
“How would we cooperate?” Yang Kai frowned .
“This old master will ensure your freedom and supply you with anything you need . I promise you’ll be satisfied! You, on the other hand, search for a way to leave this place and when you find it, you take this old master with you when you go,” Gui Zu smirked, “This old master’s Space Array clearly won’t work, but since you have studied the Space Principle, you may be able to find some other way!”
“I don’t trust you!” Yang Kai shook his head decisively . When dealing with an old monster like this, carelessness could not be allowed .
“How can this old master win your trust?”
“Swear an oath!”
Gui Zu’s expression became strange as he wore a ferocious grin, “Would you believe this old master even if he swore an oath? This old master could renege on it at any time!”
“Swear it in the name of your dead wife and children, then I’ll believe you!” Yang Kai said seriously .
“Little brat, don’t reach out for a yard after taking an inch!” Gui Zu’s expression suddenly became irritated, Yang Kai’s words seemingly touching his reverse scale, causing him to shout angrily, “Irritating me holds no advantage to you; remember, I can kill you now and obtain your knowledge of the Space Principle by searching your Soul!”
“The chances of that working aren’t great . Perhaps you’ll be able to obtain all my insights into the Space Principle, perhaps you’ll get nothing, and even if you do obtain my knowledge, you won’t necessarily be able to understand it . This kind of thing depends more on aptitude than anything else, that’s why even after a thousand years of study you weren’t able to produce any results, your aptitude in the Space Principle is too poor!” Yang Kai spoke without reservation, unafraid of provoking Gui Zu .
Staring intently towards Gui Zu, Yang Kai asked, “Do you want to gamble?”
Gui Zu’s expression became gloomy as he stared towards Yang Kai like he couldn’t wait to butcher and eat him raw, wishing he could slap him dead and search his memories this instant but unable to help himself from hesitating .
Yang Kai’s words had hit the nail on the head, making it impossible for Gui Zu to not hesitate .
“If you don’t swear an oath on your dead wife and children’s souls, I’ll rush into The Void right now and not come out for a lifetime . I’d rather die in there than work with you . After I die, you can go bang your head against your Space Array . I wish you the best of luck,” saying so, Yang Kai didn’t give Gui Zu any time to consider and stepped further into the Void .
“Wait!” Gui Zu shouted, his face twitching as a gloomy aura pulsed from his body .
Suddenly, he laughed and nodded, “Little brat, your courage isn’t small, even daring to discuss conditions with this old master . ”
Yang Kai shrugged his shoulders, “Trying to cooperate as equals with you is impossible, I have to be careful . ”
“Good, you win! This old master swears in the name of his wife and children, as long as you cooperate with me, I will not bring any harm to you . If I violate this oath, may Heavenly lightning strike me down so I die like a dog!”
Yang Kai shook his head .
“Little brat, what do you want now?” Gui Zu shouted .
“It’s not you that should be struck down by Heavenly thunder and die like a dog, this kind of oath carries no real weight, how you should be swearing, do you need me to explain?”
Gui Zu glared at him coldly, a biting chill flashing across his eyes as palpable killing intent pulsed from his body .
Slowly closing his eyes, Gui Zu no longer played any tricks with his words and honestly made a vicious vow on the souls of his dead wife and children .
Yang Kai stepped out from The Void and said faintly, “Wouldn’t it have been easier to say that from the start?”
“Boy, I want nothing more than to kill you right now, reduce your body to ash, and extinguish your soul to soothe the hatred in my heart,” Gui Zu stared at him menacingly .
“I believe Senior is a man who values his wife and children far more than himself, otherwise you would not still be obsessed with seeking vengeance for them after an entire two thousand years,” Yang Kai smiled carefreely, “Senior is a man of unreasonable passion . ”
Gui Zu’s cruel and violent aura, like snow under a hot sun, quickly melted as his eyes filled with a look of nostalgia, seeming thinking back fondly on his wife and children .
“The past cannot be changed . You come back with me first, from now on we’re partners in finding a way out of here,” His tone suddenly calmed down, as if the few words Yang Kai said had dispelled his previous indignation .
Saying so, with a wave of his sleeve, he wrapped Yang Kai up in his Saint Qi and carried him back the way they came .
On top of the mountain, everyone remained on edge, silently waiting .
Although Gui Zu had left almost an hour ago, none of them dared try to leave .
This entire continent was Gui Zu’s territory, there was nowhere they could escape to .
Everyone felt incredibly uneasy in their hearts and were secretly wishing Gui Zu would never return, allowing them to die peacefully of old age .
However, in the midst of their uneasiness, Yue Xi’s expression suddenly changed as she muttered, “He’s coming back . ”
Saying so, she turned her head towards a certain direction .
Following her gaze, everyone else also noticed a black cloud that was rapidly approaching, Gui Zu’s cold and gloomy aura radiating from it .
Despair once again enveloped all of their hearts .
