Chapter 2784
“I’m walking here; this isn’t your place. Can’t I come in?”
Kai remarked with a calm demeanor!
Upon hearing this, the lean old man frowned and replied, “This is my territory now. Get out immediately, or don’t blame me for being rude.”
A wave of killing intent surged from the lean old man, enveloping Kai in a menacing aura, seemingly trying to intimidate him!
But to everyone’s surprise, Kai remained unfazed, responding with a faint smile, “Just because you claim it’s yours doesn’t make it so. Show me the land deed.”
“You’re a brave one, aren’t you? Are you looking for trouble?”
The lean old man’s fury intensified, and his aura flared up!
“Kid, prepare to suffer…”
As the man swung his fist, a shadowy form enveloped Kai!
Kai was momentarily taken aback, not understanding why this man had suddenly attacked him!
The man’s eyes reflected a mix of helplessness and desperation, as he seemed to have approached to assess the situation, only to find himself striking out!
As the man lunged, the lean old man gathered his aura, watching with a cold smirk!
Although Kai didn’t fully grasp the man’s intentions, he realized he couldn’t just stand there and be hit!
As the man’s fist came closer, Kai swiftly countered with a palm strike!
The man, only at the fourth level of the Combined Body Realm, posed no real threat to Kai!
With a casual move, Kai could easily send him flying!
However, the moment Kai struck, he froze, realizing that the man’s aggressive punch lacked power—it was almost pitiful!
Kai quickly understood that the man didn’t genuinely intend to hit him, so he retracted his strength and stepped back!
The man continued to close in on Kai, throwing punches that were swift but lacked any real force, compelling Kai to dodge as if he were being overwhelmed!
If Kai hadn’t reacted in time and struck out, he would have likely sent the man flying!
“You need to leave quickly! Don’t linger here; these people are demonic cultivators, and they’re not to be trifled with!”
The man whispered urgently to Kai while continuing his feigned assault!
“Demonic cultivators?” Kai was taken aback, sensing something was off about this group, yet he hadn’t detected any demonic aura!
“What’s really happening here?” Kai inquired, bewildered!
“Don’t ask! It’s too complicated to explain right now. Just run for your life!”
“You’re only at the second level of the Combined Body Realm. How dare you follow me here? I assume you’re heading to Jialing County. When you get there, inform the county lord about these demonic cultivators—they’re planning to raid the Pill Master’s Association!”
The man spoke grimly, urgency lacing his words!
Realizing the man’s sudden aggression towards him was due to his perceived weakness, Kai understood he was trying to protect him from the lean old man!
“Don’t underestimate me because I’m only at the second rank of the Combined Body Realm; dealing with that old man won’t be difficult…”
Kai offered a faint smile, then swiftly struck, snapping the man’s wrist!
Before the man could react, Kai had him subdued in an instant.
The man was left in shock, realizing that despite being at the fourth rank of the Harmony Realm, he had underestimated Kai, who had effortlessly restrained him without a chance to fight back!
