184: The Hunt of the God Family

After a night of rest, Ye Kong's physical strength recovered slightly.

Given his injuries, if his Physique wasn't a Divine Body, and he hadn't received treatment overnight, his injuries would have worsened to the point of being bedridden.

However, Ye Kong, relying on his Divine Body, managed to endure the night and recover some of his physical strength.

In the early morning, the streets were shrouded in a thick fog.

People had not yet officially begun their work.

Ye Kong found a shop and used an outdoor faucet to wash off the bloodstains all over his body.

The blood flowed down into the sewer with the water.

Ye Kong endured the pain, scrubbing his body clean.

Finally, he took a big gulp of water and left the place.

Walking down the deserted street, Ye Kong picked up a rotten apple, strengthened it with his remaining energy points, and ate it.

Smacking his lips, Ye Kong was still very hungry.

He had to find a way to leave Kyoto now!

Ye Kong took out a spare set of clothes from his storage ring and changed out of his tattered rags in a secluded spot.

After changing, Ye Kong tried to condense lightning power.

A few strands of electric light gathered in his hand but quickly dissipated.

Ye Kong could feel that if he didn't get treatment, although his life would be sustained by his Divine Body Physique, his True Qi couldn't be stored at all, making him unable to use any techniques.

At that time, Asura Power could still be released!

Although in this weakened state, his Killing Intent was also extremely diminished.

But after all, Killing Intent was a mental attack, so he could still barely release it.

Ye Kong stepped out of the hidden alley and looked deeply in the direction of Ye Manor.

Liting, I'm leaving... From this day forward, Kyoto TV's headlines became: "Asura Supreme Defeated, Trace Hard to Find."

Xiao Lu, the news anchor for Kyoto TV, received instructions from her superiors not to defend Ye Kong.

Ye Kong was now on the Ye Family's blacklist.

Therefore, Xiao Lu only objectively reported Ye Kong's situation in front of the camera.

"Since yesterday's battle, Ye Kong has been missing for three days."

"The Ye Family dispatched nearly half of their guards and a large number of informants to search for Ye Kong's whereabouts, but they have not found him to this day."

"Our TV station's informants haven't seen Ye Kong either. Where Ye Kong has gone, no one probably knows now."

Within Kyoto, many people were also discussing the matter, with most speculating that Ye Kong had died.

"After all, he fought against a God and suffered severe injuries. It's impossible for him to escape. Perhaps he has already died in an unknown corner!"

But there were also those who believed that a miracle would still happen.

"Too many miracles have happened to Ye Kong. Unless his body is found, I absolutely refuse to believe he is dead."

And Ye Kong himself was currently trekking on foot towards Wuji City.

He chose Wuji City to be closer to the Ten Thousand Race Battlefield.

Once his injuries healed, he could immediately enter the Ten Thousand Race Battlefield to collect energy points and prepare to become a God!

Currently, his injuries were severe, so he had to find a safe place to go into seclusion and recuperate first.

There was no guarantee that Great Sage Academy wouldn't have Ye Family informants, as everyone knew Ye Kong was the Divine Son of Great Sage Academy.

Jinan City was deeply influenced by the Four Great Families. If the Ye Family ordered Ye Kong's arrest, Ye Kong didn't want to make Lin Yaer's father's position difficult.

Looking at it this way, only Wuji City was an option. Senior Yang Wuji, as a God, had considerable autonomy and would not be coerced by the Ye Family, so he would never betray him.

Dragging his exhausted body, Ye Kong rested by day and traveled by night, using the Killing Intent of the Demon-Sealing Soul-Devouring Slash to suppress some of the lowest-level Yao Beasts.

Then, he used these very few energy points to strengthen fruit pulp or even the meat of his prey, consuming it afterward to supplement the nutrients essential for his body.

In this manner, Ye Kong walked for five full days before reaching Wuji City.

His physical condition also recovered slightly.

Not long after entering the Wuji City territory, a Divine Sense quickly flew towards Ye Kong.

Ye Kong immediately tensed up, fearing it was an informant from the Ye Family.

However, the Divine Sense quickly transmitted a voice: "Ye Kong, stay here and don't move. I'll have Xue Ruyu and the others come pick you up."

It was the God Yang Wuji!

Ye Kong let out a big sigh of relief and sat down with his back against a tree.

The Divine Sense quickly returned.

Not long after, several rays of light shot out from Wuji City.

Commander Xue Ruyu landed in front of Ye Kong, followed by several soldiers.

Ye Kong saw Xue Ruyu descend and grinned, giving her a smile.

"Ye Kong, it's been a long time, yet you dared to challenge a God."

"What you'll do in the future, I truly can't imagine." Xue Ruyu approached and carefully examined Ye Kong's injuries.

Afterward, Xue Ruyu revealed a shocked expression.

"I see you've suffered such severe injuries, you should have died on the way!"

Ye Kong showed a helpless smile and said, "Why must Commander curse me to die?"

Xue Ruyu snorted and said to the soldiers beside her, "You all help him to the military camp. No leaks on the way! Don't tell anyone who asks."

Then, Xue Ruyu took out a hat from her waist and helped Ye Kong put it on.

"Yes."

Two soldiers stepped forward and helped Ye Kong up.

Xue Ruyu then said, "I'll go back first. Walking with you would attract attention."

...Upon arriving at the military camp, Yang Wuji was already waiting. After they met, Ye Kong explained his situation in detail, and everyone understood.

Finally, Yang Wuji ordered: "Wuji City has people coming and going, it may not be safe. For now, I will arrange for you to stay in the S Shaqi Tower. Xue Ruyu will send people to deliver food daily."

"Ye Kong, you should rest well in Wuji City for now and temporarily forget about the Ye Family's affairs."

"Don't worry, the Ye Family cannot control my Wuji City!"

The weak Ye Kong nodded.

"Thank you, Senior Yang and Commander Xue."

In the following days, the God Yang Wuji took action, injecting True Qi into Ye Kong's body to aid his recovery.

With the blessing of the Dao Law, Ye Kong's body recovered very quickly.

These past few days, Ye Kong stayed in the S Shaqi Tower, using the Killing Intent absorbed by the S Shaqi Tower to repair his body.

Everything went smoothly, and Ye Kong's body recovered quickly.

Just as Ye Kong was steadily recovering, a team secretly arrived outside Wuji City.

"Captain, this Wuji City is a frontline of the Ten Thousand Race Battlefield, with a God in charge, so it won't be easy for us to act!" one of the team members said.

This team was the Enforcement Team secretly dispatched by the Ye Family Head, tasked with finding Ye Kong's whereabouts and executing the weakened Ye Kong!

The leader, named Ye Jiu, said, "Why are you panicking? The God Ancestor said that if it's difficult, as long as we find Ye Kong's location, the God Ancestor will cross the Void Realm himself to kill him!"

"Besides, Ye Kong must be severely injured now and won't recover for at least ten days to half a month!"

"Let's enter the city first! Everyone, be discreet!"

This was a well-structured team, fully armed with armor and swords. Upon passing through the city gate, they immediately attracted the attention of Wuji City's soldiers and were subjected to an inspection by the Wuji City guards.

"Stop! Where are you from?" the Wuji City guards asked.

One of the Enforcement Team members stepped forward and said, "Less talk, move aside quickly!"

The city guards showed wary expressions and tightened their grip on their weapons.

The leader glared at his subordinate and scolded him, "What did I just say? Discreet!"

"Show him the document!" "Yes, yes, yes!"

The subordinate of the Enforcement Team quickly obeyed the leader's words and handed the document proving their identity to the city guard.

The city guard looked at it, revealing a puzzled look.

Afterward, the soldiers discussed it and returned the document to the Enforcement Team.

"Since you are from the Kyoto Ye Family, please enter!"

The soldiers withdrew to the side of the city gate, clearing the way.

The Ye Family's Enforcement Team showed triumphant expressions and swaggered into Wuji City.

The soldier watched the Enforcement Team walk away, then quietly said to another soldier, "Go quickly and report to Commander Xue, the Ye Family people are here."

After the Enforcement Team entered Wuji City, they looked at the bustling market and couldn't help but exclaim.

"I remember Wuji City was attacked by foreign races not long ago. I didn't expect it to recover its former prosperity in such a short time."

Ye Jiu snorted and said, "It's far worse than Kyoto!"

"Quickly, disperse and inquire about Ye Kong's whereabouts!"

"Yes!"

Several Enforcement Team members went directly to the nearby market to ask shop owners.

"Boss, have you seen Ye Kong come here?" As soon as the boss heard him ask about Ye Kong, he immediately broke into a smile.

"You mean Ye Kong? The Asura Supreme? Has he come? Where is he?" The Enforcement Team member was stunned for a moment and said, "I'm asking you!"

The boss was also stunned for a moment, but still smiled and said, "Haha, if Ye Kong came, the streets and alleys would have been buzzing with news long ago."

"I think, Ye Kong hasn't come!"

The Enforcement Team member felt very strange and couldn't help but ask, "No, why are you so happy?"

The boss was stunned again.

"Oh, Ye Kong is our Wuji City's benefactor, everyone welcomes him!"

Several Enforcement Team members were all taken aback, thinking about how popular Ye Kong was in Wuji City.

They immediately reported this situation to Ye Jiu.

Ye Jiu thought carefully.

Ye Kong was so popular that if he came to Wuji City, he would definitely be discovered.

But the people of Wuji City didn't know he had come, so the only possibility was that Ye Kong was hiding somewhere in Wuji City.

According to their preliminary investigation, Ye Kong did indeed head in the direction of Wuji City!

Ye Jiu and the others decided to investigate the military camp in Wuji City!

"Captain, I heard that the military commander of Wuji City is an ice beauty named Xue Ruyu, and she's not easy to deal with."

"If we go directly to the military camp, she probably won't let us in." Ye Jiu frowned and asked, "With the Ye Family's document, who would dare resist?"

Upon hearing this, the subordinate quickly shut his mouth.

The group immediately headed to the Wuji City military camp... "Stop! Military restricted area, unauthorized personnel keep out!"

The military camp sentries directly blocked Ye Jiu and the others who wanted to enter the camp.

"Show some respect, do we look like unauthorized personnel?"

The Ye Family's Enforcement Team was accustomed to being arrogant. Wherever they went, as long as they revealed their Ye Family identity, the other party, seeing the fully armed Ye Family personnel, would not dare to offend them.

However, the soldiers here in Wuji City didn't fall for the Ye Family's tricks.

They didn't argue with the Enforcement Team; they just stood there motionless, refusing to let the Ye Family's Enforcement Team enter.

Ye Jiu's eyes narrowed, and a burst of pressure instantly erupted, sending the soldiers flying.

"We are the Ye Family's Enforcement Team! Anyone who dares to stop me is going against the Kyoto God Family, the Ye Family!"
