Chapter 4292
If Kai had only considered one individual from the Soul Demon Sect as a close friend, he might have chosen to be gracious and let the matter slide.
However, for the others, Di Chongjing had no intention of showing any mercy!
“Everyone from the Soul Demon Sect is my ally, so you’d better back off. You can’t touch a single member of the Soul Demon Sect,” Kai stated coldly.
Upon hearing this, Di Chongjing’s eyes narrowed, radiating a hint of murderous intent.
Although Kai belonged to the Xiao Imperial Dynasty and held a respectable status, Di Chongjing was not about to let go of her vendetta against the Soul Demon Sect.
She needed to settle the score from the past before she could even consider it.
“My dear Fellow Daoist, while it’s true that the Xiao Imperial Dynasty once showed me kindness, I paid for that with my Immortal Bones, so it was merely a transaction,” she replied.
“At this point, my Blood and Bone Sect is no longer under the influence of the Xiao Imperial Dynasty. If you cling to the favors of the past, don’t blame me for being ungracious.”
“Since you’re from the Xiao Imperial Dynasty, I’ll allow you to take one member of the Soul Demon Sect with you, and I won’t pursue the matter further.”
While Di Chongjing couldn’t spare everyone from the Soul Demon Sect, letting one go was acceptable.
“Mr. Chen, please take Yulian away, take her away…” Ochre Yan urged Kai urgently.
“Mr. Chen, I implore you to save my daughter and Ochre Yan. As for the grudge with the Blood and Bone Sect, let me handle it alone,” Patriarch Jiang pleaded, hoping Kai would take both Jiang Yulian and Ochre Yan with him.
“Patriarch Jiang, what grudge does your Soul Demon Sect have with the Blood and Bone Sect?” Kai asked, surprised.
“Ah…”
Patriarch Jiang sighed and began to explain.
As Kai listened, he learned that it had been Patriarch Jiang and his allies who had pursued the Blood and Bone Sect in the past!
After they fled to the Xiao Dynasty, the Blood and Bone Sect had severed ties.
Years passed, and the Blood and Bone Sect managed to thrive and expand within the Xiao Imperial Dynasty, eventually breaking free from it.
Now, having grown powerful, they returned seeking revenge on the Soul Demon Sect.
“What if I decide to intervene on behalf of the Soul Demon Sect?”
Kai asked, turning to Di Chongjing.
Di Chongjing frowned slightly and replied coldly, “Listen, kid, since you’re from the Xiao Imperial Dynasty, I’ll show you some respect. But don’t think I won’t act foolishly.”
“You’re only at the seventh rank of the Transition Realm. It would take nothing more than a flick of my hand to eliminate you. Even if you’re from the Xiao Imperial Dynasty, if I were to kill you now, no one would know it was me.”
“You’d better take my advice and leave at once. If I change my mind, none of you will escape.”
Di Chongjing’s threat caused a slight smirk to appear on Kai’s face, a look of disdain forming.
A cultivator from the First Grade of the Mahayana Realm dared to speak to him like that!
“Since I told you to leave and you still haven’t, you’ll have to suffer the consequences…”
As soon as Kai finished speaking, the Dragon Beheading Sword materialized in his hand!
With a swift motion, the sword unleashed a dazzling arc, sending a wave of energy toward the crowd of the Blood and Bone Sect.
This strike sent shockwaves through the heavens and the earth, shaking the very fabric of reality.
Di Chongjing’s brow furrowed as he was forced to retreat, while several members of the Blood and Bone Sect were unable to evade the attack, with some being cut in half and others sustaining severe injuries!
“How dare you! You’re asking for death…” Di Chongjing roared, his fury erupting.
The remaining disciples of the Blood and Bone Sect were equally enraged, glaring at Kai with hostility.
They couldn’t fathom that a mere seventh-grade cultivator of the Transition Realm could overpower them!
With a renewed sense of urgency, the disciples of the Blood and Bone Sect charged at Kai, determined to retaliate after being caught off guard.
This time, they launched a coordinated attack, convinced that they could subdue him!
A seventh-grade Transition Realm cultivator could only be so strong—surely they could overcome him!
“Mr. Chen, be careful…” Patriarch Jiang warned anxiously as he saw the onslaught aimed at Kai!
