Rebirth: City Sovereign

The lady watched as the bald man was killed with one palm from Ye Kai, standing on the spot in a daze, unable to say a single word.    

"Be careful when you go out alone in the future." Ye Kai gently clapped his hands and said that, with his hands behind his back, he slowly walked out of the Congli.    

"Wait a minute!" Seeing that Ye Kai was about to leave, the woman reacted, looking at Ye Kai's bloody wounds, she hesitated for a moment, then finally decided to speak.    

"My home is in the nearby village, let me help you heal your injuries."    

The woman raised her head as she said this, her eyes clear.    

"Just treat it as repayment, okay?"    

Hearing his words, Ye Kai paused for half a second, then laughed and replied.    

"Sure."    

This was the first time Luo Shui was alone with a man since she was seventeen.    

The two walked side by side amongst the Congli. Luo Shui secretly glanced at them, like a newborn baby cat, secretly observing the young man dressed in white.    

Although the youth's entire body was covered in torn wounds, he didn't seem to care in the slightest. A valiant feeling was emitted from his forehead, completely different from the feeling he felt from the men of the same age as him. Luo Shui stared at it for a long time before realizing what she was doing.    

Ye Kai was the first to speak: "Those people just now, why did they arrest you?"    

Hearing Ye Kai say that, Luo Shui paused, then thought for a moment, and replied.    

"Dilun Sect is in charge of governing this area, and those few men just now are members of the Dilun Sect."    

"This sort of thing happens quite often in this area. People in several villages have long since gotten used to it."    

"Is no one coming to manage it?"    

After Ye Kai said this, he paused for a moment, as if he was thinking of a way to put it into words.    

"For example, who is in charge?"    

Luo Shui only revealed a wry smile, and said. "You must be from the west. It is natural for you to not know about this."    

"The territory around here isn't under anyone's control at all. Whoever has the biggest fist will listen to him."    

"Oh?" Ye Kai raised his eyebrows.    

"Such a large Heavenly Portal of West, is it actually this chaotic?"    

"Only on our side." Luo Shui stuck out her tongue, revealing a cute smile.    

"Your side?" Only now did Ye Kai notice Luo Shui's appearance. Her black hair and black eyes did not seem like those of Heavenly Portal of West at all.    

"You're from the East?"    

"Uh, don't I look like one?" Luo Shui asked suspiciously with a natural expression.    

"Why are there people from the East within the Heavenly Portal of West?" Ye Kai went straight to the point.    

"Ever since I was born in the Luo Family Village, I seem to have always been like this." Luo Shui raised her head and looked at the layers of white clouds in the sky.    

"However, I heard from my grandfather that in an even older era, there was originally only one Celestial Sect. They did not separate the items, nor did they mention Western God."    

"But later on, because of some unknown reason, the Great Celestial Gate opened up and split into two. Our Luo Family Village and a few other eastern villages all fell to the west side."    

"A big battle? Can you be more specific? " The history of the Door of Immortality was completely outside of his expectations, Ye Kai straightforwardly asked.    

Luo Shui only shook her head.    

"I also heard about it from my grandfather when I was young. Now that my grandfather is no longer around, I can't remember the details anymore."    

Ye Kai nodded and did not speak further.    

He never thought that the history of the Celestial Sect would be even more complex than he imagined. There would definitely be a lot of history and secrets that no one knew of, but no matter what, to be able to meet a person from the East like him inside the Heavenly Portal of West made Ye Kai feel much better.    

Luo Shui saw that Ye Kai did not say a word, and held his hands together to ponder for a long time, before finally opening his mouth to ask.    

"And you, who are you?"    

Ye Kai thought for a while and said: "I will come from the east."    

"Pata."    

Luo Shui was startled for a moment, and then, the bamboo basket that she was carrying fell to the ground.    

"Eastern, Dongsheng? "Who invited you here from the east?"    

From what Luo Shui knew, it was only the sect master of Top Level Sect could cross over to the Heavenly Portal of Western God.    

Thinking about Lee Mengying and Ye Qingying being kidnapped by Rochester, Ye Kai's face immediately darkened, and said.    

"I came over myself."    

"How is this possible!?" Without Master Feng's lead, and without the Immortal Token to break open the Inhibition, the people located at the Dongsheng Immortal Gate would not be able to pass through the entrance! " Luo Shui was even more shocked.    

"I have never heard of anyone from the Dongsheng Immortal School relying on their own strength coming to the Heavenly Portal of Western God!"    

"It might have existed before, but you don't know it." Ye Kai responded simply.    

"Furthermore, even if there isn't any, since I'm the first one, there shouldn't be anything surprising about me."    

"This is impossible, because …" Luo Shui still wanted to say something, but he couldn't find any way to refute him for now. After all, Ye Kai had only used two palm strikes to turn the Dilun Sect disciples, who were acting like tyrants in a landowner, into a bloody mist.    

Luo Shui's silly and cute look really resembled Ye Qingying, and Ye Kai couldn't help but reach out his hands to rub Luo Shui's head.    

"Howl!" Luo Shui's cute face instantly flushed red.    

Following that, the dense forest of Congli disappeared around the two, and what replaced them was a field full of green.    

Unlike Earth, which had the nourishment of immortality, none of the plants and fruits in the garden were of the yellow color of aging pearls. The huge and plump fruits that hung on the branches made one have a strong appetite.    

"Hmph hmph, how amazing, my Luo Family Village's field is quite well-known in the nearby regions."    

As she passed by, Luo Shui looked proud, she straightened her chest and spoke.    

"Not bad indeed. Immortal qi is dense, and the conditions are unique." Ye Kai nodded and replied.    

At the very end of the field, there was an arch woven from bamboo branches. At the very top of the arch, there was a wooden sign hanging on it.    

"Luo Family Village."    

Not long after they entered the village, someone shouted.    

"Luo Shui, you're finally back!"    

Following that, village names walked out of one cabin after another, looking at Luo Shui in surprise and delight. Only then did they notice the man beside Luo Shui, who had a puzzled expression on his face.    

"This is?"    

Luo Shui revealed a beautiful smile and replied.    

"I know him from the Congli, I met with danger, it's all thanks to this big brother who saved me."    

Luo Shui was very smart, and purposely did not reveal Ye Kai's identity. When the villagers heard that Ye Kai had saved Luo Shui, all of them revealed expressions of gratitude.    

"Speaking of which, Luo Shui, what danger have you encountered?" a man suddenly asked.    

"Several men of Dilun Sect surrounded me, wanting to capture me and bring me back to their sect!" Luo Shui said snappily.    

The surrounding air suddenly turned solemn.    

Ye Kai could notice that as soon as the word "Dilun Sect" came out, the villagers' faces immediately turned gloomy.    

It seems that the Dilun Sect is indeed quite a deterrent in this area.    

The man swallowed and asked carefully.    

"Then... What about the disciples of the Dilun Sect? "    

"This …" Luo Shui also noticed that something was amiss and hesitated to speak.    

"They were all killed by my palm." Just as Luo Shui was thinking of an excuse to go over, Ye Kai suddenly opened her mouth to answer.    

Hearing this, the villagers were all dumbfounded.    

"You, you said that you killed the members of Dilun Sect?" A villager asked, trembling.    

"Yeah." Ye Kai nodded fearlessly.    

This time, the entire Luo Family Village exploded.    

"Heavens, what have you done?"    

"Do you know who the people at the Dilun Sect are? You dare to kill a disciple with Dilun Sect, do you not wish to live? "    

"It's over, wait for the Dilun Sect people to investigate, we will all die!"    

"Calm down, there's still a chance now. Capture him and give him to Dilun Sect to deal with. Our Luo Family Village still has a way out!"    

The villagers shouted crazily with their faces filled with fear, while Luo Shui stood on the spot with a helpless look. She looked like she was about to cry.    

"Master, please forgive us, the Dilun Sect is too terrifying, it is not something that we, the people of Luo Family Village, can afford to offend, I beg you to come with us to the Dilun Sect to plead guilty, and beg for forgiveness." A person in charge of Luo Family Village walked out and said to Ye Kai.    

Ye Kai looked around at the villagers and said indifferently.    

"It doesn't matter. If they dare to come and invade, I'll behead them all."
