Chapter 4624
Her face was delicate, like a freshly bloomed lily. Her eyebrows arched gracefully, resembling distant mist-covered mountains, while her eyes, clear and serene like autumn water, seemed to carry endless stories with every blink.
She possessed a graceful figure that struck a perfect balance—neither too slender nor overly full. Each curve highlighted her feminine beauty and understated strength.
Her waist was willowy, and her steps were elegant. As she walked, her skirt swayed gently, much like a lotus leaf stirred by the morning breeze, exuding both poise and vitality.
She wore a dress styled in an ancient fashion, seemingly tailored just for her. The soft, delicate fabric was vibrant yet tastefully elegant.
The skirt fell to her ankles, revealing delicately embroidered shoes, adding a touch of classical charm to her presence.
“Brother-in-law, you’re running too fast! Wait for us!”
At that moment, the youngest sister and her brother finally caught up.
However, when the youngest sister’s brother laid eyes on Xiong Ying, he froze in place, his eyes widening, and his jaw dropping in disbelief.
“She’s so beautiful! How can someone be this beautiful?” he exclaimed, unable to contain himself.
The youngest sister looked at Xiong Ying and felt a twinge of inferiority. Compared to Xiong Ying, she seemed so plain and unremarkable.
“If you don’t want trouble, scram! Don’t waste our time!”
A burly man nearby shouted impatiently, his voice booming.
It was then that the youngest sister’s brother snapped out of his daze and turned to face the two strong men.
“Fellow cultivator, save me! Please, save me!” Xiong Ying’s tearful eyes brimmed with helplessness, making her look heartbreakingly vulnerable.
“Don’t be afraid. I’ll protect you!” the youngest sister’s brother declared, stepping in front of Xiong Ying with a determined expression.
Kai glanced at him, a faint smile playing on his lips. “Can you even take them on?”
The youngest sister’s brother hesitated, eyeing the two burly men nervously. Finally, he shook his head and said, “No, I can’t… but you can! It’ll be easy for you!”
The youngest sister’s brother had witnessed Kai’s abilities before. Despite being at the ninth level of the Tribulation Realm, Kai could effortlessly defeat those at the fourth level of the Mahayana Realm.
What’s more, Kai had recently slain several powerful cultivators from the Qiu family, all of whom were in the Mahayana Realm.
“You’re not wrong,” Kai said with a smirk.Kai smiled helplessly. This guy wanted to play the hero and save the beauty but clearly expected him to do all the work!
“Damn it, stop nagging! Do you want to die?”
One of the burly men, growing impatient, charged directly at Kai and the others.
Without even sparing him a glance, Kai casually waved his hand. Instantly, a massive force surged forward, knocking the man off his feet.
The attacker’s body slammed heavily onto the ground, leaving him coughing up blood and unable to rise.
Kai didn’t consider opponents of the same level worth his attention. To him, defeating them was no more effort than crushing an ant.
The sight left the other burly man frozen in shock. He hadn’t imagined that Kai, a ninth-grade cultivator in the Tribulation Realm with the same cultivation level as them, could overpower them so effortlessly.
It was unbelievable!
The man quickly bent down, grabbed his injured companion, and fled without looking back.
Kai didn’t bother chasing them. There was no deep grudge between them, and killing them would’ve been unnecessary. Besides, Kai didn’t even know Xiong Ying at this point.
Watching Kai drive away the two men with a mere wave of his hand, Xiong Ying’s eyes widened in astonishment. Her gaze toward Kai shifted noticeably.
“Don’t worry, beauty. My brother-in-law scared them off,” the youngest sister’s brother said proudly, deliberately emphasizing the word “brother-in-law” as if to make a point.
“Thank you…” Xiong Ying said softly, bowing to express her gratitude.
“You’re welcome. It’s nothing, really. By the way, may I ask your name, beautiful lady? And what brings you here?” the youngest sister’s brother asked, his tone dripping with flattery.
“My name is Xiong Ying. I’m waiting for my brother,” Xiong Ying replied.
“Xiong Ying?”
Kai and the youngest sister’s brother were both startled. They stared at Xiong Ying in disbelief.
