King of Nine Heavens

The two of them carefully walked through the area of collapse, only to discover that they had returned to the cave where they were hiding. After confirming that there was no doubt about it, the two slowly walked towards the cave entrance.    

    

At this moment, the sky began to brighten. The disciples guarding outside the cave finally could not hold on and were dozing off. Even Ouyang Lu had fallen asleep under a big tree.    

    

Gao Feng extinguished the torch and instructed in a low voice, "Feier, you stay here for now. I'll go try and see if I can break that barrier."    

    

Breaking through the barrier, that was the reason Gao Feng returned. However, after all, it was a barrier condensed from Martial Monarch Stage, so Feier had no idea whether it could be broken or not. She reminded him in a low voice: "Little Brother, be careful, if you can't break it, we will leave through the other exit."    

    

Liu Tie nodded his head and began walking towards the cave entrance, first going through the barrier that Lin Wannian had created, and then using his hands to probe around, finding that the barrier that the Gu Clan Warriors had formed was still there. Thus, according to the Breaking Technique that Xiao Xiangzi had taught him, his hands formed a seal, and then, he aimed at the barrier and started to unleash his power. A shining rune flowed to the barrier, and the barrier started to melt like snow, turning into nothingness in an instant.    

    

Gao Feng walked forward a few steps and waved excitedly at Feier when he saw that the barrier had completely disappeared.    

    

When Feier saw that Gao Feng had really broken the barrier formed by Martial Monarch Stage, she became incomparably excited and ran quickly towards Gao Feng.    

    

"Bam!"    

    

Feier forgot that she couldn't pass Lin Wannian's barrier and directly crashed into it, bruising her nose and eyes. She couldn't help but moan in pain: "Aiyo …"    

    

Feier yelled loudly, but because the barrier had sealed off the cave entrance, not a single sound could be heard from the outside.    

    

Even though Gao Feng did not hear Feier's painful groans, his heart still skipped a beat when he saw her swollen nose and eyes. He quickly returned to the cave and was relieved when he found out that Feier was not seriously injured.    

    

The person waiting at the entrance of the cave was still dozing off. Gao Feng walked carefully past them. Before he walked far, he heard messy footsteps in front of him. Gao Feng quickly hid in a bush.    

    

Then Gao Feng saw Liu Kun leading a group of people toward the cave, accompanied by a Third Grade of Martial Monarch Stage. From the way that person was dressed, Gao Feng basically determined that he was someone from Ancient Remaining Clan and that person looked extremely similar to Ji Yiqun. He might even be Ji Yiqun's father.    

    

Gao Feng was right, he was Ji Yiqun's father, Ji YanMin. He was the patriarch of Ji Family, the patriarch.    

    

Liu Kun saw the people dozing in front of the cave entrance, and was extremely angry. He shouted, "I told you to guard the cave entrance here, not to sleep. If they all ran away, even if I killed you all, it would not be easy for me to vent my anger."    

    

Hearing the loud shout, everyone who was dozing opened their eyes. Seeing Liu Kun and the others arrive, those who had fast reactions immediately kneeled on the ground. Those who had slow reactions were still rubbing their sleepy eyes.    

    

Ouyang Lu also quickly got up, saluted Liu Kun, Ji YanMin, and the others and said, "Palace Head, the leader of the Tuo family, Brother Ji."    

    

This was too embarrassing, a dignified Expert of Martial King Stage actually slept like this and didn't even know that so many people had come. This was too embarrassing, he had just lost it all to his grandma.    

    

Liu Kun didn't pay attention to Ouyang Lu. Ji YanMin returned a salute and said, "Vice Palace Master Ouyang, thank you for your hard work."    

    

Ouyang Lu felt very wronged. He was worried about it and stayed here for the whole night and didn't even close his eyes. Seeing that the sky was about to brighten and he was very tired, he leaned against the tree and squinted his eyes for a while.    

    

Even though Ouyang Lu felt wronged, he didn't dare to retort. He was clear about Liu Kun's temper. If Liu Kun talked back to him in front of so many people, he definitely wouldn't let him off. For his own future, Ouyang Lu could only swallow his anger. Luckily, Ji YanMin's words had resolved his embarrassment, so he smiled towards Ji YanMin and said, "It's not hard, it's not hard at all."    

    

Ji Yanxi said to Ji Yan Min, "Brother, you must be tired of traveling. Take a break for now. I need to go and remove the barrier that I created."    

    

Ji Yanxi quickly walked towards the cave entrance with Ouyang Lu following closely behind.    

    

Ji Yanxi walked to the entrance of the cave and was about to remove the barrier when she suddenly discovered that it was gone. She was surprised and asked Ouyang Lu, "Vice Palace Master Ouyang, did you break the barrier I created?"    

    

Hearing this, Ouyang Lu was confused, but his eyes were still looking towards the entrance of the cave. He did not see the barrier that Ji Yanxi had created, so he walked forward a few steps in disbelief, yet he did not touch the barrier, and said in disbelief, "What's going on? An hour ago, I checked the barrier that you formed, Brother Ji, is still intact, why now …"    

    

Hearing their conversation, Liu Kun also walked over quickly. When he saw that the barrier that Ji Yanxi had created had disappeared, he asked in confusion, "Could it be that an expert has broken through Brother Ji's barrier?"    

    

Other than Lin Wannian, no one else had the ability to enter the forbidden area of the Xiaoxiang Palace without anyone knowing. There was a large formation protecting the forbidden grounds, so without the permission of Palace Master Xiaoxiang Palace, even Expert of Martial Immortal Stage would not be able to easily enter.    

    

Ouyang Lu was shocked, "Where did this master come from?" "Could it be Lin Wannian?"    

    

Everyone looked around. Gao Feng was hiding behind a big tree and held his breath. Everyone could only hear the rustling of the leaves in the wind, but no one heard anything unusual.    

    

Liu Kun looked at the cave entrance and said, "The barrier he formed is still there. It's very possible that he really came back."    

    

Ouyang Lu said in a puzzled manner, "Even if Lin Wannian had come back, shouldn't he have made a sound when he broke the barrier set up around Brother Ji?    

    

"As long as we break that barrier, we will know if Lin Wannian is back or not." Liu Kun calmed down, turned around and said to Ji Yan and Min, "Leader, please …"    

    

Ji Yan Min walked forward and formed a seal with his hands. Soon, a big round ball covered with strange characters was formed between his hands and he threw it towards the cave entrance.    

    

Boom!    

    

The big round ball smashed into the cave entrance barrier, and a large area of cracks immediately appeared on the solid barrier. It collapsed with a loud bang and instantly disappeared.    

    

Seeing that layer of enchantment collapse, Ouyang Lu quickly ran into the cave. Seeing that the cave had collapsed as well, he turned around and said loudly, "Master, only Lin Wannian knows the other exit of this cave. He really came back and took that kid away."    

    

"Then hurry up and chase him!" Liu Kun said angrily.    

    

Ouyang Lu's expression was somewhat conflicted. He also wanted to chase, but he was no match for Lin Wannian. So what if he managed to do so? He could only be cannon fodder.
