He looked at the bloodstains on the beach.
Yang Ming’s vitality had dissipated, but his eyes were filled with resentment.
Kang Cheng was shocked. He looked up at Ye Qiubai and asked, “Did you do all this?”
Ye Qiubai nodded.
He saw the other party admit it.
Kang Cheng stood up and cupped his fists at Ye Qiubai. “Thank you, Brother Ye.”
However, his face was also a little hot.
He recalled his previous words and looked down on the other party’s strength.
Now, not only did he save Kang Haiqiong, but he also dealt with all the other party’s people.
Even he couldn’t do it…
Ye Qiubai waved his hand and said, “You saved me. It’s only right for me to help.”
Seeing Ye Qiubai say this, Kang Cheng seemed to have thought of something.
He opened his mouth but closed it again.
He seemed to have something to say, but he hesitated.
Seeing this, Ye Qiubai said, “Is there anything else you need help with?”
Seeing that the other party took the initiative to mention it, Kang Cheng said, “Brother Ye, can you help our Kang family again?”
Kang Haiqiong frowned and said, “Kang Cheng, don’t make things difficult for Ye Qiubai! The other party saved me and has already returned the favor!”
Ye Qiubai smiled and said, “It’s fine. It’s my first time here. 1 have something to ask for as a reward.”
Along the way, Kang Cheng explained the situation to Ye Qiubai. “Now, the top power of the Yang family is stronger than our Kang family.”
“The Yang Clan has a Dao Convergence Realm cultivator and a Peak Stage Dao
Convergence Realm, while the Kang Clan only has two.”
Even though they were only a small realm apart, there was a world of difference even if it was just a minor realm at the Dao Convergence Realm.
“Now, the Yang family is afraid of the Kang family’s trump card and is afraid that we will fight them to the death. At that time, the City Lord’s Manor will benefit from it, so they did not launch a full-scale attack.”
“Therefore, after the two sides discussed, they decided to rely on the younger generation of the various families to carry out a competition of two out of three victories to decide the ownership of the sea area.”
Kang Haiqiong chimed in, “Both sides can invite an external helper. It’s said that the Yang family has invited an inner disciple from a first-rate force in the Azure Sky Region, the Cloud Gazing Sect.”
“As for that inner sect disciple, he has already reached the Peak Stage Soul Divergence Realm…”
Green Sea City was a peripheral city in the Azure Sky Region.
Peak Stage Soul Divergence Realm?
Ye Qiubai nodded slightly.
With Ye Qiubai’s current strength, he probably still needed to make some preparations for this realm.
However, he could draw the Green Cloud Sword.
However, unless it was absolutely necessary, Ye Qiubai wouldn’t rely on the Green Cloud Sword.
“When do we start?”
Kang Haiqiong replied, “Seven days later.”
The group returned to the Kang family.
Kang Haiqiong and Kang Cheng brought Ye Qiubai to the family head’s residence.
The head of the Kang family, Kang Yao, was a Peak Stage Dao Convergence Realm expert.
“I’ve heard everything.”
Kang Yao looked at Ye Qiubai and nodded slightly. “Thank you for your help, young friend. However, the other party is an inner sect disciple at the Peak Stage Soul Divergence Realm of the Cloud Gazing Sect. I’m afraid…”
The elders at the side also frowned.
“Isn’t this nonsense? How can we fight someone who hasn’t even reached the
Soul Divergence Realm?”
“Isn’t this giving up the sea area?”
“Kang Cheng, you’re so immature. How can we trust you with the Kang family?”
Hearing Elder Zhu’s sarcasm,
Ye Qiubai wasn’t angry. He only smiled faintly. “Can your Kang family still have the younger generation or other external help take on this responsibility?” Kang Haiqiong and Kang Cheng blushed.
Their talents were not bad, but they were nothing compared to the inner disciples of the top forces in the Azure Sky Region.
Kang Yao also sighed slightly.
Their Kang family could not invite any external help in front of the Yang family’s power!
This also caused the outside world to look down on the Kang family.
In fact, he had already come to a conclusion that the Kang family would definitely lose in this battle!
Elder Zhu’s face flushed red, but Ye Qiubai was telling the truth and couldn’t refute him.
Kang Yao carefully sized up Ye Qiubai and saw a faint smile on his face. After hearing the other party’s identity, there was still no fear in his eyes.

Then, he gritted his teeth and nodded. “Alright! Little Friend Ye, I’ll leave this matter to you. If it succeeds, as long as you instruct me in the future, my Kang family will help you with all our might no matter what!”
Ye Qiubai shook his head and said, “I’m just repaying your kindness.”
With that, he left the residence.
There were still seven days left. He needed to cultivate.
These days, he had been cultivating in the cottage, sparring with his junior brothers and sisters, and occasionally receiving guidance from Lu Changsheng.
Ye Qiubai felt that his sword intent had already reached a peak.
He only needed an opportunity to make another breakthrough!
At this moment, in the residence.
The Grand Elder asked worriedly, “Master, is it really appropriate to leave this matter to him?”
Third Elder chimed in, “If there’s really no other way, we’ll agree to the City
Lord’s Manor’s plan and marry Haiqiong over.”
“How about this? With the connections of the City Lord’s Manor, it’s very easy to invite an external help that’s not weaker than the other party.”
“No way!”
Kang Yao said with a gloomy expression, “I can’t sell my daughter for glory!” “Besides, what good is the City Lord’s Manor? Even if they marry him, won’t they be jealous of the Kang family’s sea?”
“There seems to be some kind of divine item under our sea after all. Will the
City Lord’s Manor let our Kang family off?”
The elders were silent.
“In that case, I might as well fight to the death!”
Seven days passed in a flash.
Ye Qiubai opened his eyes and retracted the Sword Intent beside him.
He had improved but he still did not break through.
Ye Qiubai wasn’t anxious.
The greatest taboo in the path of cultivation was impatience after all.
Kang Haiqiong arrived in front of Ye Qiubai’s residence and said, “Brother Ye, it’s starting.”
Even though his tone was light, one could still hear the faint worry in his voice.
“Brother Ye, if it doesn’t work, you can leave. No one will blame you.”
Ye Qiubai smiled and said, “With your personality, you’ll probably suffer a huge loss in such a world.”
Kang Haiqiong was slightly stunned.
“However, with the existence of someone like you, you will still have some warmth in this cold-blooded and heartless cultivation world.”
“Keep it up.”
Kang Haiqiong smiled.
The worry and nervousness in his heart had also dissipated by a lot.
The two of them arrived at the arena together.
The Yang family had already arrived.
The City Lord’s Manor was neutral and attended as a referee.
Seeing the arrival of the Kang family,
Patriarch Yang sneered, “Kang Yao, is this the foreign aid you invited?”
“Why don’t you just admit defeat? Perhaps I can still keep one member of the Kang family.”
Kang Yao’s expression was ugly. “The matter hasn’t been decided yet. Isn’t it too early for the Yang family head to make such a conclusion?”
Patriarch Yang sneered, “Why? Could it be that you still hope that a Martial Monarch Realm expert can resist a Peak Stage Soul Divergence Realm expert?” “Or could it be that you’re placing your hopes on your Kang family’s two younger generations?”
At this moment, the City Lord of Green Sea City, Tian Yijian, interrupted their conversation and said, “Since everyone is here, let’s begin.. Masters from both sides!”
