MARTIAL PEAK 5844

"He stopped," Mo Yu suddenly said.

Mo Na Ye raised his eyes and saw that Yang Kai had indeed stopped at the limit of his vision. Although he didn't say anything, he was silently provoking them, as if he was saying, 'If you have the ability, come after me…'

Mo Na Ye's vision went black as he nearly died from anger.

The Space-Time River was shaking, and waves were rolling about. Obviously, the Pseudo-Royal Lord trapped inside was struggling to break free, but with Yang Kai's current methods, with the only Pseudo-Royal Lord trapped inside, how could he allow this to happen?

"Not chasing…" Yang Kai looked towards the direction of the Black Ink Clan's masters, his eyes flashing. These people were quite cautious, it seemed they were afraid he would kill them.

Since that was the case…

With a single thought, Yang Kai's figure flashed and disappeared into the Space-Time River. In the next moment, the originally calm Space-Time River suddenly began to boil.

Watching this scene from afar, Mo Na Ye's expression changed and he almost rushed forward, but before he could act, the tumbling river calmed down and Yang Kai's figure appeared again.

In his hand was a Pseudo-Royal Lord who was breathing heavily and had a faint vitality.

This Pseudo-Royal Lord had been seriously injured in the frontline battle against the Human Race's Eighth Order, so he had returned to to the No-Return Pass and enter the Ink Nest to recuperate.

His injuries had yet to heal and his strength had fallen greatly. Now that he had fallen into the Space-Time River, it would be easy for Yang Kai to subdue him.

Holding the Pseudo-Royal Lord in his hand, Yang Kai stared coldly at the masters of the Black Ink Clan who were staring at him from afar and slowly exerted his strength.

The Pseudo-Royal Lord seemed to have noticed something and struggled with all his might, but to no avail. He could only look towards Mo Na Ye and the others and call out, "Save…"

Before he could finish speaking, he exploded and turned into a bloody mist, releasing a thick Ink Force that instantly burst into a giant black ink cloud.

Yang Kai snorted lightly and shook his hand.

On the opposite side, the group of Pseudo-Royal Lords stared at Yang Kai with bloodshot eyes. Mo Na Ye and Mo Yu also wore angry looks on their faces. Yang Kai's repeated provocations had caused them to explode, but they were powerless to do anything about it.

In the last battle, Yang Kai's strength had already been proven. The Black Ink Clan had gathered two Royal Lords and dozens of Pseudo-Royal Lords, but they still couldn't kill this guy and could only drive him away. Even if they fought again now, they probably wouldn't gain much.

It could be said that Yang Kai, who had broken through to the Ninth Order and had the body of a Divine Dragon, now had absolute advantage over the Black Ink Clan.

After killing the Pseudo-Royal Lord, Yang Kai didn't immediately leave. Instead, he looked at Mo Na Ye and Mo Yu with interest and asked, "Who is the one in charge now?"

Mo Na Ye and Mo Yu both remained silent, their eyes gloomy as if they couldn't be bothered with him.

Yang Kai sneered, "The blood feud between the Human Race and Black Ink Clan is as deep as the sea, absolutely irreconcilable. If you want to kill me, I'll kill you. After all these years, how many Human Race have died under the hands of your Black Ink Clan's masters? I've only killed a Pseudo-Royal Lord, why put on such an act? What? Are you not willing to pay the price?"

'You killed one? There are a total of eight Pseudo-Royal Lords from the E-5 Domain who died at your hands!' When Mo Na Ye thought about this, his heart bled. If it weren't for the remaining Pseudo-Royal Lords running away quickly after seeing the situation turn sour, they would have been wiped out by you sooner or later.

Taking a deep breath to calm his anger, Mo Na Ye grit his teeth and asked, "What do you want to do? Why don't you tell us?"

He could tell that Yang Kai's decision to advance or retreat was definitely a scheme, so instead of wasting time staring at him, he might as well make it clear.

Yang Kai looked at him in surprise, "The Black Ink Clan is now under your control? Mo Yu's reign has been overthrown by you?" Then he turned to Mo Yu, "You're an old Royal Lord, even if Mo Na Ye becomes a Royal Lord, he's still a junior. How can you let a junior ride on your head and act like a tyrant?"

Mo Yu remained indifferent, treating him like he was farting.

Mo Na Ye coldly said, "Yang Kai, don't say such provocative words. The Black Ink Clan is not as treacherous as your Human Race!"

Yang Kai curled his lips. He was just trying his luck. If he could really sow discord between the two Black Ink Clan Royal Lords, it would naturally be good. In any case, it was a free trade, so it wouldn't be a loss to try.

But from the looks of it, it was useless.

Calming himself down, Yang Kai said, "Since you're the one in charge, that's fine. We're old acquaintances, we know each other well, and neither of us has mistreated the other. Today, I came here for a business with your Black Ink Clan."

The corners of Mo Na Ye's eyes twitched as he heard the word 'business'. He suddenly remembered the days when he was extorted by Yang Kai.

So when he heard Yang Kai's words, he had a bad premonition and wanted nothing more than to seal Yang Kai's mouth…

Yang Kai didn't pay any attention to him and simply said, "I want to bring something from the No-Return Pass' side. I hope your Black Ink Clan is sensible."

Mo Na Ye's eyes twitched even harder, "What is it?"

Yang Kai stretched out his hand and pointed.

Mo Na Ye turned his head in the direction he was pointing and saw a few Ink Nests standing there. Most of them were Territory Lord-level Ink Nests, but one of them was Royal Lord-level Ink Nest.

Mo Na Ye was puzzled, "Ink Nest?"

What did Yang Kai want to do with the Ink Nest? The Ink Nest was the foundation of the Black Ink Clan, but it didn't seem to be of much use to the Human Race. In the past, the Human Race had indeed seized some Ink Nest and studied them deeply. During the expedition, they had even used the Ink Nest's communication ability to coordinate the movements of the various armies.

However, since then, the Human Race had stopped thinking about the Ink Nest.

"You're mistaken, why would I want the Ink Nest?" Yang Kai raised his finger and waved it, "What I want is the thing under the Ink Nest."

Mo Na Ye was stunned for a moment before quickly recovering and sneering, "Your appetite is quite big!"

What lay beneath the Ink Nest was undoubtedly the mountain pass.

Back then, the Human Race's expeditionary forces had been defeated outside the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction and were unable to withdraw from the Heavenly Beginning Great Restriction. However, on the way back, some of the mountain passes had been cut off and suffered heavy casualties. Even the mountain passes themselves had suffered heavy losses.

In the end, only seventy or eighty mountain passes had been gathered here, and after the Black Ink Clan breached the No-Return Pass, some of them had been destroyed. Right now, only about half of these mountain passes remained, and most of them were tattered.

These impregnable passes had been left behind by the ancient masters of the Human Race and were the accumulation of many generations. The Human Race being able to contend with the Black Ink Clan in the various war zones of the Ink Battlefield was all thanks to these impregnable passes.

Each of these mountain passes was a giant artifact that combined both offense and defense.

The Withdrawing Black Ink Pavilion was created by imitating these mountain passes, but compared to them, the Withdrawing Black Ink Pavilion's size couldn't compare to any of these mountain passes. In front of a true mountain pass, it was like the difference between a grandson and a grandfather.

Because these impregnable passes were too large, even the Ninth Order Old Ancestors of the past were unable to take them away. After the Human Race lost the No-Return Pass, these impregnable passes were left behind in the No-Return Pass.

Since the Black Ink Clan had occupied these mountain passes, there was no way for them to make full use of these mountain passes, so they simply ignored them and simply placed the Ink Nest atop these mountain passes, treating these Human Race artifacts as their base.

After so many years, the Human Race had never had any ideas about these mountain passes, because there was nothing they could do. Mo Na Ye had never imagined that Yang Kai would make such a request.

These mountain passes were useless in the hands of the Black Ink Clan, because when the Human Race evacuated, the core of each mountain pass had been taken away, and the Spirit Arrays and Artifacts on the mountain passes had all been destroyed, leaving behind only giant empty shells for the Black Ink Clan.

Yang Kai's sudden request for the mountain pass surprised Mo Na Ye. In fact, it didn't matter if he gave it to Yang Kai, but since they were enemies, how could he agree so easily?

Mo Na Ye was just about to refuse when he heard Yang Kai say leisurely, "I'll only take one mountain pass. I can let you move the Ink Nest away, so it's fine if you agree, but if you don't… In any case, I have nothing to do, at most I'll come visit you once every three or five days."

Mo Na Ye swallowed the words he was about to say.

If Yang Kai had made such a request two months ago, Mo Na Ye would never have agreed to it, but the battle two months ago had allowed the Black Ink Clan's masters to witness Yang Kai's strength. In this time's surprise attack, the Black Ink Clan had lost another Royal Lord-level Ink Nest and a Pseudo-Royal Lord.

If such a situation were to occur a few more times, who would be able to withstand it? The Pseudo-Royal Lords had a certain degree of premonition towards the unknown dangers, but Ink Nest was inanimate objects. If Yang Kai only attacked the Ink Nest, no matter how many Royal Lord-level Ink Nest there are in the No-Return Pass, they would not be able to bear it. His actions just now had proven his ability.

Thinking about it, they really couldn't refuse.

Mo Na Ye couldn't help turning his head to glance at Mo Yu. Although Mo Yu trusted him and allowed him to take charge, he really couldn't make a decision on this matter alone and could only discuss it with Mo Yu.

The two Royal Lords' divine sense surged, but Yang Kai did not rush them.

After a while, Mo Na Ye gritted his teeth and said, "I can give you the mountain pass, but I also have a request."

Yang Kai smiled happily, "I'm just doing business, it's nothing more than raising the price on the spot and paying back, speak."

Mo Na Ye said, "After you take the mountain pass away, you are not allowed to come to the No-Return Pass again."

"Are you still sleeping?" Yang Kai looked at him like he was looking at a fool.

Mo Na Ye spread out his hands, "As you said, when doing business, you must raise the price. What if you agree?"

Yang Kai immediately became somewhat unhappy, "Do I look that stupid?"

"Then a thousand years, you can't come to the No-Return Pass for a thousand years!"

The veins on Yang Kai's forehead bulged, "I told you to raise the price, I didn't tell you to speak nonsense!"

"You teach me…" Mo Na Ye teased.

Yang Kai glared at him and waved his hand, "Ten years, within ten years, I will not come to the No-Return Pass!"

"Nine hundred years!" Mo Na Ye bargained.

Yang Kai said inexplicably, "I can see that you have some misunderstandings about the current situation. I don't necessarily have to take anything away, but I can come and go to the No-Return Pass at any time I want. Not coming here for ten years is my greatest sincerity, don't push your luck!"
