Yang Kai was finally back at Maplewood City after a few days.

Yang Kai didn’t have the time to go and inform Kang Si Ran about his safety after entering the city gate. Rather, he hurried back to the cave mansion he had rented before.

Yang Kai took out the token and poured his Source Qi into it, trying to deactivate the cave mansion’s barrier.

But what left him in a great shock was that the cave mansion’s barrier didn’t respond at all. It was as if his token was useless.

This made him furrow his brow, but very soon, he recalled a matter.

When he arrived at Maplewood City, he had rented the cave mansion for about a year, and counting the days, this one-year period seemed to have been over two months ago already.

Once the deadline passed, the right to use the cave mansion would naturally be withdrawn.

Yang Kai’s heart started pounding as he realized that something was wrong.

He didn’t care about the ending of the cave mansion’s lease. It wasn’t a big deal as he could go to the City Lord’s Mansion to register and rent another one, it was just a matter of Source Crystals.

He also hadn’t kept anything valuable in the cave mansion, so he wasn’t worried too much about it either.

However, before he left, the little girl of the Zhang Family was still in the cave mansion.

Back when he left with Kang Si Ran for the Yuan Furnace Mountain to explore Gong Sun Mu’s cave mansion, such a long delay had never crossed his mind. He believed that they would return relatively quickly. He didn’t even explain anything to Zhang Ruo Xi before leaving. He only told her that he was going out on a trip and left her here alone.

Now, the lease of the cave mansion had already expired. His right to use the cave mansion had been withdrawn. But what about Zhang Ruo Xi?

Yang Kai looked left and right, but he couldn’t find that delicate figure. He couldn’t help but be anxious.

When he left, Zhang Ruo Xi was only a First-Order Saint King. In Maplewood City, where snakes and vipers crept among the dragons, she had no power to protect herself. If she was targeted by someone with malicious intentions, the consequences would be disastrous.

“She could have gone back to the Zhang Family herself!?” Yang Kai murmured to himself.

If he was in Zhang Ruo Xi’s place, he would have returned to the Zhang Family first if the right to use the cave mansion was withdrawn and he was expelled from the cave mansion. In that case, he wouldn’t be worried about anything. The Zhang Family might not be strong, but they still had two Origin King Realm masters.
