After which, they inched closer and closer towards Ye Kai. Just as they had said, Ye Kai could only watch as they approached him. However, he didn't even have the strength to lift his sword.1
A powerful aura suddenly exploded from afar.
Following that, the two elders appeared before him. They seemed to raise their hands casually, and with two palm strikes, countless soldiers in the surroundings were turned to ash.
At this point, Ye Kai's vision was already filled with confusion. He could vaguely see the soldiers turn into ashes, and then the two of them turned to look at him. Their faces seemed to be smiling, and it was very warm.
He wanted to smile back at them, but a wave of exhaustion overcame him and he fell backwards, his body unconscious.
After an unknown period of time, Ye Kai finally regained consciousness. He opened his eyes abruptly and sat up, realizing that he was lying on the bed. He couldn't help but look around the room and realize that the decorations were quite gorgeous.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened and someone walked in.
This old man was tall and straight. His face was rosy and his eyes shined brightly. His white beard and hair hung down his shoulders, and he wore a long white robe that gave him a very sage-like appearance.
"You're awake?" Seeing that Ye Kai had already sat up and was stroking his beard, he laughed.
"Senior, what kind of place is this? Why am I here? How is Fire Cloud City?" "Where are the people from the Redbud Kingdom?" Ye Kai did not care about the formalities anymore as he kept asking questions.
She didn't blame him for his rudeness, but she didn't answer his question. Instead, she waved her hand and said, "You just woke up. Lie down and let me check your body. It's absolutely safe here. You can rest assured!"
Ye Kai was extremely anxious. He wanted to know how the people from Fire Cloud City were faring, but since this old man didn't say anything, he had no choice but to obediently lie down and let the old man examine his body.
As he spoke, the old man placed his hand on Ye Kai's right wrist. However, he soon let out a light "Hey!", and his brows slightly creased.
"Senior, what's wrong?"
"Hehe, it's fine. Your body is recovering very well, and there's nothing wrong with it anymore. I'm just curious as to why you're recovering so quickly."
Ye Kai was momentarily at a loss for words. His Nirvana Scripture had been obtained during the mystic realm smelting trial, so no matter how severe his injuries were, it would still take some time.
The old man seemed to have sensed that there was something wrong with his words. He immediately smiled and waved his hand, "If it is not convenient for you to say, then forget it. I am just a little curious. It is good that you are fine!"
Ye Kai smiled apologetically.
After interacting with the elder, he found out that he was currently in the Cloud Sky Kingdom's imperial palace.
At that moment, the person before him was a highly respected Martial Saint from the Imperial Family. His cultivation was already at the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm, the same as the head of the Vermilion Bird Sect.
However, when he asked about Fire Cloud City, the old man let out a helpless sigh. His face was also filled with anger as he said, "Fire Cloud City has already been razed to the ground. You are the only survivor!"
