Although Yang Qian already knew about this, he still pretended to be ignorant. He suppressed his fear and looked around with extra caution. When his eyes fell on a certain place nearby, his heart tightened, but he quickly controlled his emotions and showed a dull look on his face.

He saw two tall, evil-looking Yakshas standing face to face on a giant tree more than a hundred feet away from him.

The two Yakshas had huge wings on their backs, like dark clouds covering the sky and sun, and they were more than ten feet tall, like two towering mountains. At this moment, they both tilted their heads and looked over, with surprise in their eyes.

Moreover, Yang Qian could not sense any breath from these two Yakshas. When he swept his mind over them, it seemed as if the top of the giant tree was empty.

Yang Qian naturally knew what this meant.

These two Yakshas are beings whose cultivation far exceeds his. Combined with the description in the original novel, they are the so-called Yaksha Kings in the Yaksha clan.

Two beings at the combined level!

Faced with such a high-level hostile alien race, even though Yang Qian was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but let his breathing freeze at this moment, and his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible giant hand.

"Huh! We must keep calm now!" Just as Yang Qian was thinking secretly, before the two Yakshas made any other moves, a ray of light suddenly flashed in the other direction hundreds of feet away, and another brilliant five-colored light shot out from the ground like lightning, and another cultivator appeared here.

Yang Qian was slightly startled and turned his head to look. When he saw the man clearly, a hint of surprise flashed across his face, but he was slightly happy in his heart.

"It's her! It's definitely her!"

This person had a graceful and petite figure, like a willow in the wind. Under her feet was a five-colored jade boat, shining brightly. It was the female cultivator named Xiao.

When the woman saw Yang Qian, she was delighted at first, her beautiful eyes flashed with light, and she opened her red lips slightly, wanting to say hello.

But then, she glanced again and saw the two motionless Yaksha Kings.

In an instant, the face of the female cultivator named Xiao turned pale, as if covered by a layer of frost, and her delicate body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"It's a bit weird! The aura of these two people seems to be two of the human cultivators that I discovered not long ago. Those guys are really useless. They can't even do such a small thing." One of the Yakshas had a strange look on his face and spoke with a frown.

This Yaksha was tall and mighty, emitting a terrifying aura. He turned out to be the Yaksha leader named "Meng Xiang" who had previously cut a huge mountain in half with one blow. It was really surprising that he appeared here.

"Immortal King! There is a magnetic stone vein underground nearby. These two were able to escape from underground without being affected. This cannot be blamed on your men." Another Yaksha chuckled and said with a playful look on his face.

This Yaksha had sharp eyes and could see at a glance the fundamental reason why Yang Qian and the woman surnamed Xiao escaped to heaven.

"Hmph, this is not a reason to let these two escape. I will punish them severely when I return. You two have some skills to be able to escape here. But that's all." The Yaksha King named Meng Xiang snorted coldly, his face as gloomy as water. He raised one hand, and suddenly a blood-red light emerged like a tide. Faint sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling could be heard in the light, which was creepy. It seemed that he was going to kill the two people in front of him immediately.

Yang Qian and the woman surnamed Xiao's faces changed drastically, their expressions filled with fear and panic.

At this moment, the air around seemed to have condensed, making it so oppressive that it made people feel breathless.

The wind howled, rustling the leaves around.

However, Yang Qian was fine. He knew very well that these two Yaksha Kings would not kill him on the spot, so he was able to remain somewhat calm. Most of his apparent panic was actually pretended.

Even so, Yang Qian still looked solemn and secretly clenched his fists, ready to deal with possible unexpected crises.

But the woman surnamed Xiao was unaware of the inner truth. At this moment, she looked like she was fighting for her life, with her eyes wide open, her teeth clenched, and a resolute aura emanating from her whole body.

Sizzling la la——

Suddenly, the sound of wind and thunder rang out behind Yang Qian, as if rolling thunder exploded in the gloomy and dark sky, with amazing momentum. Suddenly, a colorful phoenix and a majestic blue bird with eyes like thunder and lightning appeared.

After a flash of light, the two turned into a pair of crystal clear wings and appeared behind him.

The wings sparkled with dazzling light and contained a fierce spiritual power, forming a sharp contrast with the gloomy environment around them.

As for the Xiao woman, the five-colored boat under her feet let out a low roar, then rolled over, and with a glittering light it turned into a five-headed strange dragon over ten feet long.

The five heads of different colors were baring their teeth and claws, with sharp fangs in their mouths and ferocious eyes, which made people shudder. At this moment, the sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder, which made the monster dragon look even more ferocious and terrifying.

"Immortal King, wait a minute! These two human beings don't seem to be ordinary human cultivators. The shadows that just appeared behind the black-robed man seem to be the true images of Tianfeng and Kunpeng. The other woman's feet seem to be a variant of the true dragon race, a wisp of the essence of the five-colored dragon. It's quite interesting!" When the other Yaksha King saw the magical powers that Yang Qian and the woman surnamed Xiao had just used, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes. He took a step forward and stretched out a hand to stop his previous companion. "King of the Wheel, what do you mean by this? Do you want me to let them go? And I don't like others to call me by my title directly. You should just call me by my name." The Yaksha King named Meng Xiang frowned, and an angry look appeared on his face. He snorted coldly. Although he dispersed the blood in his hand as he was told, he turned his head and glared at his companion fiercely, showing a dissatisfied expression.

"Haha! This is my oversight! Fellow Daoist Mengxiang, weren't you and I still arguing about that matter just now? How about we use these two to make a bet?" The Yaksha King, who was called the 'Wheel-Turning King', laughed with a bit of cunning in his expression. He folded his hands in front of his chest and looked at the Yaksha King Mengxiang with interest. He actually changed the way he addressed his companion and called him by his name.

"Bet, what bet?" The Yaksha King named "Meng Xiang" changed his expression, and his eyes revealed a bit of curiosity. He narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned forward, as if he wanted to hear more clearly, as if he had guessed some of the other party's intentions.

"It's very simple. Let's use the dispute we just had as a bet. We will kill the two of them separately. Whoever succeeds first will win the bet." The Wheel King grinned, revealing a ferocious look. His sharp fangs flashed coldly in the sun, making people shudder. As he spoke, he waved his arms excitedly, as if he had already seen his victory.

"Hmph, they are just two Jindan cultivators. They will probably be killed instantly if we take action. How can we tell the winner?" Yaksha King Mengxiang said unusually coldly. He folded his hands in front of his chest, his face full of disdain, and curled his lips in contempt.

"These two are not ordinary godsend cultivators, and we two cannot take action ourselves. How about we each send out one of our own slaves to do the action. In this way, I think these two humans will be able to handle it, which will be enough for you and me to decide the outcome." The Wheel King said confidently, his eyes full of confidence, and he tapped his arm lightly with his fingers as he spoke.

"Changnu...Okay, I'll do as you say! Am I afraid of losing to you?" Yaksha King Mengxiang's face was uncertain for a long time, his brows were furrowed, and he fell into deep thought. He paced back and forth for a while, and finally stopped suddenly, looked at the Wheel King coldly, nodded slowly, and agreed.

These two Yaksha Kings at the combined level did not care about the thoughts of Yang Qian and the woman surnamed Xiao from the beginning to the end. They just did what they wanted and directly and arbitrarily decided the fate of the two in advance.

This is human nature. After all, Yang Qian and the woman surnamed Xiao are only two cultivators at the Divine Transformation level. Faced with the huge gap in strength, they cannot resist the absolute authority of the Yaksha King at the Fusion stage.

Of course, if an ordinary cultivator encountered this situation, there would be no other outcome except to perish on the spot, and they could only wait for death in despair. However, the two Yaksha Kings could never have imagined that the two Divine Transformation cultivators in front of them were not comparable to ordinary cultivators.

Yang Qian lowered his eyes slightly, frowned, and thought quickly in his mind. His eyes revealed a hint of solemnity, but also a hint of unyielding stubbornness, which was just right for him to behave now.

I have to say that Yang Qian's acting skills are getting better and better.

"Haha, very good. You two have also heard what we said. Don't accuse us of bullying the weak. I'll give you a chance to survive. Let you go a thousand miles away first, and then we will send out the slaves to hunt you down. But please note one thing, don't think about going separately. As long as the distance between you two exceeds a hundred miles, don't blame us for taking action personally." The Wheel King laughed and nodded wantonly, then turned his head abruptly, and said to Yang Qian and the others with a lightning-like gaze, as if that look could freeze people's souls.

"Thousands of miles?" Yang Qian stroked the almost transparent wings behind him with one hand. The wings trembled slightly, as if feeling something.

He first closed his eyes, his chest rising and falling slightly, and then he took a deep breath, as if he wanted to inhale all the air around him into his lungs.

As he inhaled this breath, Yang Qian's originally tense face gradually relaxed, and his expression slowly changed from the initial panic and tension to calm and composed, as if he had made some kind of decision.

All these changes were seen by the two Yaksha Kings, who couldn't help but reveal a sarcastic smile.

"That's right. Of course, if you haven't escaped a thousand miles away within one stick of incense, I will also send out Changnu. Don't expect to get away with anything." The Wheel King crossed his arms over his chest and spoke indifferently. His words were like the cold wind in December, so cold that people couldn't help but feel chilled when they heard them.

The corner of Yang Qian's eye twitched suddenly, his brows furrowed, and he quickly turned his head and glanced at the woman named Xiao nearby.

The woman noticed his gaze and forced a smile at him. Although the color on her face was slightly restored, her petite figure made her look even more delicate and pitiful.

"Okay, Xiao Daoist Fellow! Let's go!" Yang Qian was silent for a moment, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes. Suddenly, the wings behind him trembled slightly, and the whole person was like an arrow shot from a bow, suddenly turning into a shadow and disappearing on the spot.

But the next moment, the man strangely crossed a distance of nearly a hundred feet, flashed out silently from the void, and instantly appeared next to the woman surnamed Xiao, and landed steadily on the body of the five-headed giant dragon.

Yang Qian's superb teleportation ability made the two Yaksha Kings look at each other with a flash of surprise in their eyes. But then, they regained their indifferent expressions and acted as if nothing had happened.

The woman surnamed Xiao was startled at first, her body trembling slightly, her eyes wide open. But she immediately showed a hint of joy, her eyes full of hope. Since the two of them were told to escape together, naturally the greater Yang Qian's magical power, the more chance they would have of survival.

Without Yang Qian saying anything, the woman stepped lightly on the five-headed strange dragon with her jade feet. The five heads of the dragon swung violently, and immediately turned into five-colored rays of light that tightly wrapped the two people's bodies.

Then, it shot away into the distance at lightning speed, astonishingly fast, like a flash of lightning across the sky.

After a few flashes, it disappeared without a trace at the horizon.

The two Yaksha Kings, Zhuanlun King and Mengxiang, really stood there without moving, just folded their hands on their chests, staring coldly in the direction where the two men fled, with no expression on their faces, as if they had full confidence in the so-called "Changnu" and firmly believed that Yang Qian and the other two would never escape from their clutches.

With the speed of the five-colored rays of light driven by the woman surnamed Xiao, the journey of more than a thousand miles could be reached in an instant in no time. But since the two Yaksha kings gave her an incense stick of time, the woman naturally slowed down her speed immediately after flying more than a hundred miles. Then, with a solemn look, she gently patted her waist with one hand, and a snow-white jade plate hanging on it flew out, instantly turning into a layer of white misty light shield that tightly protected the two of them.

"This sun pendant is condensed with the power of extreme yang. Even the Yaksha King who has achieved great success cannot penetrate it silently with his spiritual power alone. We can talk now without worry." The woman surnamed Xiao explained very quickly, but a gloomy look was looming on her face, making her look extremely anxious.

"What is there to talk about? We are probably in danger of death this time." Yang Qian's mouth twitched, and he deliberately showed a bitter smile. He thought to himself: I don't want anything to change. It should be the same as the original record. Any deviation may bring unexpected danger. (End of this chapter)
