Chapter 4297
“I can see you have a powerful blood aura, which suggests you’ve been cultivating by consuming human blood. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have reached the ninth rank of the Transitional Abomination Realm,” Di Chongjing remarked.
“There’s no need for you to preach or accuse me, especially when you’re in no position to do so!”
Di Chongjing burst into laughter!
At that moment, Patriarch Jiang’s expression soured dramatically!
Jiang Yulian, along with Ochre Yan and the others, turned their gaze toward Patriarch Jiang. After all, no one had any idea how he had trained while in seclusion!
Even Kai was eyeing Patriarch Jiang, feeling that his rapid rise to the ninth rank of the Transitional Realm seemed suspicious. It had only been a short time since he had reached such a level!
Breaking through to the ninth rank of the Transitional Realm in such a brief period is no small feat, unless you’re a super genius or have access to an abundance of resources!
Clearly, Patriarch Jiang was neither a genius, nor did the Soul Demon Sect possess the substantial resources needed for such rapid advancement!
As he felt the weight of everyone’s scrutiny, Patriarch Jiang’s expression became awkward, and he averted his gaze!
“Father, is this … true? Have you really been consuming human blood to enhance your cultivation?”
Jiang Yulian asked, her voice filled with disbelief!
“Patriarch Jiang, please tell us the truth,” Kai pressed him for an honest answer.
Patriarch Jiang met Kai’s gaze, hesitated, and finally sighed in resignation, “Well, it’s not human blood that I consumed, but beast blood. I secretly kept demonic beasts during my seclusion and fed on their blood.”
“I broke my promise to my master; I shouldn’t have resorted to blood absorption for cultivation…”
Patriarch Jiang appeared deeply troubled, his body trembling slightly!
Seeing him like this, Kai was eager to uncover the truth behind Patriarch Jiang’s actions!
“Kid, you’re finished…”
Just as Kai was concentrating on Patriarch Jiang, Di Chongjing suddenly attacked him!
With a bone flute in hand, she pointed it casually at Kai!
A chilling red aura surged forth, enveloping the area!
Puh-puh-puh …
This swift energy struck Kai in an instant, completely immobilizing him!
Wrapped in the red mist, Kai couldn’t move a muscle!
“Hahaha! You think you can challenge me? You’re still too inexperienced…”
Di Chongjing couldn’t help but laugh at her victory!
“Mr. Chen …”
Ji Yun, Patriarch Jiang, and the others watched in shock!
They had not anticipated that Di Chongjing would stealthily incapacitate him so easily!
“Di Chongjing, I will fight you…”
Patriarch Jiang shouted defiantly at Di Chongjing!
With Kai under her control, it was clear that none of them stood a chance against Di Chongjing!
Patriarch Jiang’s action was meant to buy time for Jiang Yulian and the others to escape!
“Hmph, with skills like yours, you think you can face me?”
Di Chongjing scoffed disdainfully, her cold snort followed by a powerful palm strike that sent Patriarch Jiang flying!
This showcased the vast disparity in their strength, an unbridgeable gap!
Patriarch Jiang crashed to the ground, his expression grim!
“Kid, now it’s your turn…”
After fending off Patriarch Jiang, Di Chongjing directed the bone flute toward Kai!
Kai, now unable to move, could not evade the impending attack!
“Mr. Chen …”
Jiang Yulian and Ji Yun lunged toward Di Chongjing!
With both of them uninjured and aware that they were risking their lives, they pressed on without hesitation!
But before they could reach Kai, Di Chongjing’s bone flute was already on its way!
The flute aimed straight for Kai’s chest, poised to pierce him directly!
However, just as the bone flute was about to make contact, Di Chongjing suddenly froze!
To everyone’s astonishment, Kai seized the bone flute with one hand, a playful smile adorning his face!
