Chapter 4472
“Why did you come out?”
Kai didn’t need to turn around to know that Zhu Qingxiu was right behind him.
“I’m here to say goodbye. I’m off to find a deserted island for my cultivation!”
Seeing that Kai had noticed her, Zhu Qingxiu appeared a bit flustered.
“Isn’t this area too close to shore? Don’t you want to venture deeper into the Dead Sea?”
Kai turned to face her!
Zhu Qingxiu avoided his gaze, her eyes darting around nervously.
After all, she had made a bold move the night before but hadn’t followed through, which left her feeling somewhat embarrassed.
“No, I prefer it here near the mainland. It allows me to visit my father more often,”
she said with a faint smile.
“Alright, I respect your choice. If you ever need anything, don’t hesitate to reach out!”
As he spoke, Kai pulled out a large sound transmission jade slip and handed it to Zhu Qingxiu.
She accepted it without hesitation, glanced at him, then leapt off the blimp!
“Aren’t you going to say goodbye to your sister?”
Kai was puzzled; how could Zhu Qingxiu just leave without bidding farewell to Zhu Qingyue?
“No need to, it’s better to avoid any heartache. You can say goodbye to my sister for me.”
With that, Zhu Qingxiu completely vanished from view!
Kai watched her depart, surprisingly feeling a pang of sadness.
In truth, Zhu Qingxiu had her struggles!
A woman burdened with the mission of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, while also being pursued by the Demon Sealing Alliance and Fan Xianbo—it wasn’t easy at all!
Had he gone too far the night before?
Zhu Qingxiu must have made a significant decision, and he should have offered her some comfort!
“Kid, feeling regret?” At that moment, the voice of the Red Cloud Demon Lord echoed in his mind!
“Regret? What are you talking about?”
Kai feigned ignorance in response!
“Of course, I’m saying you should regret not having fun with that woman… If you don’t seize the opportunity right in front of you, are you even a man?”
The Red Cloud Demon Lord teased him.
“I’m a decent man. She’s a pure and innocent girl; how could I just think of it as playing?”
Kai replied, trying to maintain his dignity.
“Must you really pretend like that? How many women have you been with while still having the nerve to act all righteous?”
The Red Cloud Demon Lord scoffed at him.
“Mr. Chen, where is my sister?”
Just then, Zhu Qingyue appeared at the top of the blimp!
Having not seen Zhu Qingxiu inside, she had come out to investigate!
“Your sister has left. She asked me to let you know…”
Kai informed her.
“Left?” Zhu Qingyue froze, her eyes scanning the vast expanse of the Dead Sea as tears streamed down her face. “Sister….”
Kai, unable to bear the sight of her sorrow, returned to the blimp.
Once they reached a certain area of the sea, Kai instructed Ji Yun to elevate the blimp before diving straight into the Dead Sea!
He was determined to rescue Zi’er, one of the Seven Immortals, and bring her to the Soul Demon Sect for Patriarch Jiang to help restore her physical form!
When Zi’er, who had been attached to a tree, saw Kai return, her face lit up with joy!
After all, she had been worried for days, fearing he had forgotten about her!
Kai took Zi’er and made his way directly to the Soul Demon Sect located on Heavenly Demon Mountain!
However, before reaching the Soul Demon Sect, he decided to stop by Guang Han Palace to visit the Palace Master and the girls!
While there, he inquired about the Mu Family, knowing he had killed two of their sons and that the head of the family would likely seek revenge!
Fortunately, the Mu Family Master was still in seclusion. The last major conflict had drawn the Southern Domain Master’s attention and left the Mu Family Master injured, prolonging his retreat!
After departing from Guang Han Palace, Kai finally reached the Soul Demon Sect, where he entrusted Zi’er to Patriarch Jiang and left behind two Heavenly Demon Stones for her physical restoration!
With that taken care of, Kai and his companions set their course for the Western Region!
Even though the airship was swift, the journey was long, so Kai decided to close his eyes and meditate during the trip!
