Chapter 2758
During a conversation later on, Kai discovered that the motivation behind the actions of the three robbers stemmed from their accidental mastery of a spatial shuttle technique they had encountered at a relic.
However, this spatial shuttle technique had a significant limitation; it could only cover a very short distance, approximately ten meters. Earlier, the three had managed to escape from the formation by cleverly utilizing this technique. They first employed their power to create a small gap in the formation, allowing the space inside to connect with the outside. From there, they could activate the spatial shuttle to make their escape!
Upon hearing this, Kai suddenly realized that he had mistakenly thought the three thieves were exceptionally skilled. In reality, they had simply relied on this spatial shuttle technique!
This technique was indeed impressive, but its range was limited. It was somewhat similar to the Qiankun Circle that Ning Zhi had used in the past. The Qiankun Circle was considered a magical artifact capable of covering distances of up to a hundred meters; however, it had been damaged after only a few uses!
“If you three want to listen to me, then surrender your Fate Souls so that I can trust you!”
Kai addressed the three monstrous thieves directly.
“This ……”
The moment they heard the demand for their Fate Souls, the three brothers hesitated. They understood that surrendering their Fate Souls would essentially mean giving their lives to Kai!
Noticing their hesitation, Kai snorted coldly, “If you’re unwilling to hand over your Fate Souls, then you can surrender your lives instead. But don’t worry, I’ll only kill you; I won’t destroy your residual souls!”
“Perhaps you’ll be lucky enough to be reborn in a few years…”
As Kai prepared to take action, the three monstrous thieves were visibly frightened!
“Master, forgive us! We’ll comply, we’ll comply…”
In a hurry, the three thieves forced their Fate Souls out of their bodies!
Kai collected their Fate Souls and, with a flick of his wrist, the cloths covering their faces flew away!
“From now on, you will follow me. Don’t engage in any petty thefts. If you need anything, just let me know…”
Kai instructed the three thieves.
“Absolutely! From now on, you are our boss. We will all listen to you,”
the leader of the three monstrous thieves quickly replied.
However, just as he finished speaking, his stomach let out a loud rumble, revealing that they hadn’t eaten yet!
So, Kai led them to a lavish tavern for a feast!
Given that the Jade Tripod Sect was well-known in the region and that Liu Ruyan was its leader, the three thieves felt fortunate to have such a powerful ally!
After enjoying a hearty meal and drinks, Kai and his newfound companions made their way towards the airships in the central square, as their departure time was approaching!
Since they had accepted Kai as their boss, the three thieves accompanied him to Jialing County. After all, a few extra tickets wouldn’t break the bank!
This expense was merely a trivial matter for Liu Ruyan…
The Third Elder and the Yih Demon Emperor had been waiting for a while on the airship. When they saw Kai and Liu Ruyan return, they quickly greeted them, only to be stunned by the presence of the three monstrous thieves!
Kai promptly introduced them, and the Third Elder purchased tickets for the three thieves, allowing them all to board the airship!
The airship was exceptionally large, measuring a hundred meters long, and the interior was spacious and comfortable!
After all, the Flying Heavenly Clan relied on airships to generate income in exchange for resources, so they ensured everything was top-notch!
It was likely the first time the three monstrous thieves had been on an airship, and they appeared quite excited. Meanwhile, Kai wore a troubled expression, preoccupied with thoughts of how to rescue the three pterodactyls!
Noticing Kai’s demeanor, Emperor Yih gently remarked, “Mr. Chen, we are currently in the Flying Sky Sect’s territory. If you aim to rescue the three pterodactyls here, it will be quite challenging. You might consider saving them along the way!”
“However, be warned that the passengers on the dirigible may have strong opinions about it, and some might even take action against you!”
