Chapter 2821
Kai was on the verge of leaving with Yih when Zhu Zhu unexpectedly stepped out, holding a teapot in her hand!
“Mr. Chen, please don’t go yet! Have a sip of tea before you leave!”
“I take full responsibility for what happened today. I shouldn’t have treated you that way!”
Zhu Zhu spoke, her face reflecting genuine shame.
As Zhu Zhu apologized to Kai, he felt a wave of confusion wash over him.
But he managed a light smile and replied, “It’s okay, I don’t mind!”
“Mr. Chen, is everything alright? Did Zhu Zhu say something to upset you?”
Soso Xing Yue asked in a hurry.
“Oh, no, it’s all good!” Kai quickly shook his head.
Suo Xingyue, understanding Zhu Zhu’s temperament, guessed that she might not have treated Kai well. She instructed, “Zhu Zhu, pour a cup of tea for Mr. Chen and bring it over!”
Zhu Zhu nodded, poured a cup of tea, and approached Kai, saying, “Mr. Chen, I apologize for looking down on you and treating you poorly. I’m truly sorry…”
Zhu Zhu’s sincerity made it hard for Kai to refuse, so he accepted the tea with a hint of embarrassment and drank it all!
With that, Suo Xing Yue, their senior brother, and a few others also joined in for tea and conversation!
Before long, the pot of tea was empty, and Kai took Yih with him as they left!
As Zhu Zhu stared at the empty teapot, her heart was a mix of nervousness and excitement!
“Zhu Zhu, tomorrow at the Pill Master’s meeting, stay close to me and learn as much as you can. One day, when Master is old, this judge position will be yours!”
Suo Xing Yue advised Zhu Zhu.
“Understood!” Zhu Zhu nodded eagerly.
Just then, after Kai and Yih had departed, they hadn’t gone far when Kai suddenly felt a tumult in his sea of consciousness!
“Mr. Chen, something is threatening your sea of consciousness…”
At that moment, Ochre Yan’s voice rang out!
Since Amazing Ochre was now residing in Kai’s sea of consciousness, he was able to detect any disturbances right away!
Kai frowned and focused his divine sense into his sea of consciousness, where he noticed a grey mist rising, obstructing his mental energy.
As Kai pondered what could be invading and causing chaos, a flash of golden light burst forth within his sea of consciousness!
The grey fog dissipated almost instantly, clearing Kai’s sea of consciousness!
After checking for any further disturbances, Kai felt relieved!
“Mr. Chen, what’s happening?”
Seeing the change in Kai’s expression, Yih asked with concern.
“Oh, it’s nothing. Maybe I’ve just been a bit tired lately!” Kai replied, shaking his head.
“Mr. Chen, if I can’t find an antidote for the poison, I’ll accept my fate. You don’t need to worry too much!”
Yih said, feeling guilty.
He assumed that Kai was anxious about finding the antidote!
“It’s fine; I will definitely find a way to eliminate the poison from you.”
Kai smiled reassuringly, and the two continued on their way!
However, after taking just two steps, both Kai and Yih suddenly felt a wave of panic!
They sensed an overwhelmingly terrifying aura surrounding them, making it impossible for either of them to move!
Kai’s brow furrowed, and his expression turned grave as flames flickered faintly in his palms!
From the intensity of the aura alone, Kai realized that someone of great power was approaching, and he knew he wouldn’t be able to handle it with his current strength!
He prepared to unleash his flames, ready to escape at the first sign of trouble!
Suddenly, a middle-aged man wearing a straw coat, with a pair of wings sprouting from his back, appeared before Kai and Yih!
“Thunder Eagle King?”
Yih’s face changed dramatically upon recognizing the newcomer!
