Chapter 4746
After all, they stood at the pinnacle of power—even the royal families of the great sects in the Tianren Realm barely caught their attention.
A poor, remote village like this? It wasn’t even worth a glance.
It was like a billionaire venturing into a desolate mountain valley.
“The people here don’t seem to be able to fly. Their strength is unbelievably weak. Why don’t they cultivate?” Zhou Tang asked in confusion.
Kai could only roll his eyes in exasperation. What a ridiculous question. These villagers struggled just to survive—how could they afford the luxury of secluded cultivation?
And where would they even get the resources? Did Zhou Tang think spiritual treasures just fell from the sky?
While Kai and his companions rested, four uninvited guests arrived at the outskirts of Dashi Village.
“The village chief, get out here! Who gave you permission to hunt?”
A robed monk, clad in coarse gray fabric and wielding a sword, barked the command.
Behind him stood three more men, each exuding a menacing aura.
“Who are you? What’s wrong with us hunting?” Ali stepped forward, his voice filled with defiance.
Bang!
Before he could react, the robed monk struck him with a vicious kick, sending him tumbling to the ground.
“You little bastard, watch your tone when speaking to us—members of the Demon Sealing League,” the monk said coldly.
At the mention of the Demon Sealing League, the old village chief hurried over, his face darkening with unease. His hands trembled slightly as he stepped forward.
A crowd of villagers gathered, their expressions turning furious when they saw Ali sprawled on the ground.
“Please, sirs, he’s just a child. I apologize on his behalf,” the old village chief said hastily.
“We only hunted at the foot of the mountain, never crossing into the sealed areas. We know the mountain is off-limits.”
“That doesn’t matter,” the robed monk sneered. “From now on, hunting is forbidden everywhere—not just on the mountain. Everything here belongs to the Demon Sealing League. No one is allowed to touch it.”
A murmur of unrest spread through the villagers. If they couldn’t hunt, how were they supposed to survive? Were they expected to simply starve?
“This is outrageous! You won’t let us hunt or gather herbs—are we just supposed to sit here and starve?”
Yun’er protested angrily.
Her voice immediately drew the attention of the robed monk, who turned to look at her.
But in the next instant, his gaze shifted to the old woman beside Yun’er, and his expression changed.
“A demon cultivator? You actually have a demon cultivator here?”
The robed monk’s eyes lit up with excitement. Without hesitation, he turned to the three men behind him and shouted, “Brothers, we’ve hit the jackpot! A demon cultivator! Hurry and send word to the boss!”
Without waiting, the robed monk lunged toward the old woman.
In an instant, she was surrounded by the four men, their faces filled with excitement.
They had only recently joined the Demon Sealing League, spending their time collecting resources and offering tributes without earning any real merit.
But now, if they captured a demon cultivator and delivered her to the Demon Sealing League headquarters, they were bound to be rewarded handsomely!
“What are you doing? Grandma isn’t a demon cultivator!”
Yun’er stepped in front of the old woman, her face tense with worry.
The old village chief, along with the other villagers, immediately moved to stand protectively around her.
“Old man, if you don’t want to die, step aside. Otherwise, I’ll kill you all!”
The robed monk threatened, his voice cold.
But the old village chief and the villagers didn’t budge. There was no fear in their eyes.
If they had no way to survive, then they would fight.
“Who’s the tough guy threatening to kill everyone here?”
A teasing voice rang out, and Kai, accompanied by Xuan Bin, stepped forward.
The robed monk frowned slightly at the sight of them but didn’t seem too concerned.
After all, he couldn’t sense any aura fluctuations from Kai and his group—it was impossible to gauge their strength.
“Boy, judging by your clothes, you’re not from Dashi Village. Stay out of this and get lost.”
“We’re from the Demon Sealing League. We specialize in capturing demon cultivators. If you try to stop us, we’ll take you all in too.”
The robed monk sneered, exuding arrogance.
