Chapter 4651
Kai sneered when he heard the threat. “Hmph, so what if the Qiu Mansion has countless masters? Today, I’ll start by killing you, a worthless coward!”
With that, Kai’s figure surged forward like an enraged lion, leaping toward Qiu Tu.
Terrified, Qiu Tu turned and fled, but how could he match Kai’s speed? In a flash, Kai appeared in front of him and launched a punch.
“Bang!”
The blow struck like lightning, landing squarely on Qiu Tu’s chest.
Qiu Tu felt a massive force crush him, sending him flying like a kite with a broken string. He crashed to the ground, coughing up blood. His scattered gaze revealed his severe injuries—he was utterly defeated.
Watching from the sidelines, Xiong Kuo, Yaomei, and Xiong Ying couldn’t hide their admiration.
None of them had expected Kai to be so powerful, single-handedly defeating three formidable opponents.
Xiong Kuo glanced at Kai’s commanding figure, silently feeling fortunate for his decision to follow him. Had he chosen differently, he might have shared Qiu Tu’s fate.
Yaomei’s eyes gleamed with admiration. She had never encountered such a brave and powerful man before, and her heart couldn’t help but stir. However, she knew this wasn’t the right time to express her feelings, so she carefully buried them within.
Meanwhile, Xiong Ying, though impressed, felt worry rising within her. Even knowing Kai’s strength, she had been tense throughout the battle. Only when he finally triumphed did she relax, her admiration growing even deeper.
As the saying goes, beautiful women are drawn to heroes. If Kai were to make any request of her now, no matter how unreasonable, Xiong Ying would likely comply without hesitation.
“I don’t even need weapons to deal with the likes of you,” Kai scoffed, glaring at the defeated trio lying on the ground.
Qiu Tu and his companions, battered and broken, looked at Kai with pure terror in their eyes, as if they were staring at a devil incarnate.
Especially Qian Yue—he had placed all his hopes on Qiu Tu and Master Luan for protection.
Now it was clear he had overestimated them. With Kai’s current strength, even the three beast generals might not be a match for him!
“Kai… Mr. Chen, Grandpa Chen… please spare me! Spare my life!”
Dragging his severely injured body, Qian Yue crawled to Kai’s feet, pleading desperately for mercy.
At this moment, pride and dignity meant nothing to him—staying alive was all that mattered. He begged incessantly, even calling Kai “Grandpa” in his desperation.
Qiu Tu was no longer an option for help. Both he and Master Luan had been incapacitated by Kai’s devastating strikes.
As for the Qiu Mansion? Qian Yue’s current standing was so insignificant that even if reinforcements arrived, they likely wouldn’t lift a finger to save him.
Regret consumed Qian Yue. He had never imagined Kai’s strength would be so overwhelming.
If only he hadn’t betrayed Kai and revealed the location of the fairy stone vein to Qiu Tu. If only he had stayed loyal, he could have shared in the spoils and reaped untold riches!
But regrets held no currency in this world.
“Qian Yue, do you finally see the error of your ways?”
Kai looked down at him, his tone calm but piercing.
“Yes, yes, I see it now—I was wrong, terribly wrong!” Qian Yue cried. “I’ll serve you faithfully, Mr. Chen. I’ll mine the fairy stones for you. I won’t take a single one for myself. You can have everything I extract. Just please, spare my life!”
Qian Yue kowtowed repeatedly, willing to do anything to save himself.
But Kai’s expression remained cold and unmoved. Instead, the murderous intent radiating from him grew even more intense.
