Chapter 240 – How Did You Do That?

“Don’t touch me!” Leng Shan swatted away Zi Mo’s hand in disgust.

“I’ll let this pass only once!” Yang Kai said indifferently. After hearing this, Leng Shan could not help but breathe a sigh of relief because she that as long as she stayed in line, she would not have to experience that inhuman torture again.

“How did you do that?” Leng Shan hesitated for a long time before working up the courage to ask.

Just before now, she had hit Yang Kai with her Ghost King Seal, only to have it returned to her a moment later along with something else that took root in her conscience. However, because she had not cultivated her Divine Sense yet, Leng Shan was unsure what it was, yet she knew that this thing was what he was relying on to control her.

“I am also very curious about this; could you please tell me?” Zi Mo smiled charmingly, batted her eyes at Yang Kai, and pursed her lips while putting on a slightly pouting look to form a truly attractive picture.

“It was simple, I just placed a brand onto your Souls,” Yang Kai replied offhandedly.

(PewPewLaserGun: If you are confused about this, we’ll settle it right now. Everyone has a “Soul”, everyone. Everyone has a “Divine Sense”, everyone, it’s like your sixth sense and an extension of your Soul. For most regular people these are inaccessible and ethereal, only cultivators who have reached the Immortal Ascension Boundary can open their “Knowledge Sea” and begin to cultivate their Soul and Divine Sense, strengthening them so they can use Soul related martial skills and techniques.)

Hearing this, the two women were shocked.

How was that simple? Although they had not cultivated their Divine Senses yet, they knew full well just how hard it was to implant a seal onto another’s Soul. Say they completely ignored the fact that Yang Kai was only a Separation and Reunion cultivator, then even if he was an Immortal Ascension Boundary master, it would still take a massive amount of effort to accomplish this. Not to mention that if he had screwed up even slightly, then he could have badly injured their Souls, which would have left them essentially brain dead.

It certainly was easy to say, but in what world was his casually given answer simple?

Unfortunately, when they thought back on what had just happened to the two of them, the whole series of events could really be described as “simple”.

In Leng Shan’s case, she had sent out her Ghost King Seal and then received it back. The entire exchange took only a few breaths of time, but in that brief exchange, the right to decide if she lived or died had instantly changed hands.

Similarly, Zi Mo had simply retrieved a thread of her Divine Sense, which had been attached to her Soul Controlling Insect, and thereafter suffered the same fate.

On that point, this boy in front of them had killed Jin Hao, but had decided not to leave, so he had obviously been plotting all this from the start, just waiting for Zi Mo to follow the script he had laid out.

Ridiculously, Zi Mo had actually ran over, fallen completely for his act, and behaved exactly how he wanted, which reduced her to being his slave! Remembering how all of this happened, Zi Mo felt her heart sink as it filled with endless regret.

Even his threat to burn her Soul Controlling Insects was certainly a ploy to force her to recover that thread of Divine Sense.

Obviously, he had branded that thread of Divine Sense in advance!

Staring at Yang Kai, Zi Mo let out a deep sigh, “Are you really only at the Separation and Reunion Boundary Seventh Stage?”

To her question, Yang Kai shook his head slowly.

(Silvan: Fucking troll!)

Zi Mo patted her proud chest after hearing his answer and let out a flirtatious laugh, “Good, how could a mere Separation and Reunion Seventh Stage cultivator accomplish all this? What realm have you really reached?”

Yang Kai chuckled as his aura trembled, and an invisible pressure began to spread out from him. The Yuan Qi in his body swelled up greatly, but soon regained its tranquility.

“Breakthrough…” Zi Mo and Leng Shan both stared at Yang Kai with a surprised look on their faces. The scene just now was clearly a breakthrough of a Small Realm.

However… the aura fluctuations he had emitted weren’t very strong. They didn’t even reach the extent of a True Element Boundary cultivator.

“Now I’m Separation and Reunion Boundary Eighth Stage!” Yang Kai grinned stupidly at the two women.

(Silavin: GG. He has gotten stronger :O)

Seeing this, both Zi Mo and Leng Shan’s expressions went stiff as they cursed inside, [So he really is just a Separation and Reunion cultivator
