Martial Peak

“I once said that when I broke through to the Immortal Ascension Boundary one day, I would set you free!” Yang Kai said with a friendly chuckle to Leng Shan’s suspicious face, “Now, it’s time to fulfill that promise.”

Leng Shan’s eyes suddenly flashed a brilliant light, full of hope and expectation.

A few years ago, when she had gone out for life experience in that Isolated World, Yang Kai had left a brand on her and Zi Mo of Tian Lang Dynasty’s Souls. At the beginning, Leng Shan and Zi Mo tried every means to escape Yang Kai’s control, but after wide variety of experiences, Leng Shan’s attitude towards him slowly changed.

Later, when they had reunited at the Evil Cavern and Yang Kai had single-handedly saved her and her fellow Ghost King Valley disciples, Leng Shan even began to feel grateful towards him.

When she had learned of the Inheritance War, Leng Shan and the Ghost King Valley disciples who owed Yang Kai a deep debt of gratitude had defied their Elder’s commands and journeyed to War City to assist him.

By now, she wasn’t very concerned about the Soul brand that Yang Kai had left in her mind, not even really caring if it remained or not. After all, beside the initial period where she had tried to rebel against him, Yang Kai had never used it to harm or coerce her in any way.

But despite all that, hearing Yang Kai say he was going to remove it still made Leng Shan a little happy.

This man really was someone who kept his word.

Yang Kai gently nodded, and Leng Shan stepped forward and sat down in front of him.

“Relax.” Yang Kai laughed lightly when he saw some nervousness on her face.

The next moment, the huge and pure Divine Sense condensed and directly rushed into Leng Shan’s mind.

Right now, Leng Shan was still only a True Element Boundary Ninth Stage cultivator, but although she hadn’t broken through to the Immortal Ascension Boundary yet and opened up her Knowledge Sea, as a sentient creature, she still had a Soul.

His powerful Divine Sense scanning through Leng Shan’s mind, Yang Kai immediately found an energy fluctuation which matched his own.

It was the Soul brand he had implanted on Leng Shan a few years ago!

Next, Yang Kai carefully drew out this Spiritual Energy and assimilated it into his Divine Sense.

This process wasn’t difficult for Yang Kai who had reached the Immortal Ascension Boundary.

After only as long as it would take to drink half a cup of tea, Yang Kai took back his Divine Sense and smiled, “Done.”

Leng Shan blinked slowly and looked at Yang Kai, her emotions somewhat torn.

Regaining her freedom was obviously a happy event, one worth celebrating, but after so long subtly feeling Yang Kai’s presence near her, Leng Shan now suddenly felt like something was missing, which was somewhat disconcerting.

“Thank you.” Leng Shan recovered quickly, stood up and thanked him gently.

From now on, she and Yang Kai were no longer connected. After the end of the Inheritance War, she would likely return to Ghost King Valley with her fellow disciples and never again set foot in the Central Capital and War City.

“It’s what I should do.” Yang Kai nodded lightly.

Leng Shan smiled shyly, nodded, and then left the room.
