Chapter 4753
Seeing Xuan Bin standing before them, Zuo Tianzheng and his men instinctively took several steps back.
Even if they combined their strength, they wouldn’t stand a chance against him.
He was at the peak of the ninth rank of the Mahayana Realm!
The elder who had just boasted about killing Kai alone now lowered his head and hid behind Zuo Tianzheng.
“My esteemed fellow cultivator, I am Zuo Tianzheng, leader of the Demon Sealing League. May I ask for your name?”
Zuo Tianzheng attempted to use the League’s reputation to intimidate Xuan Bin, hoping to instill some hesitation.
Xuan Bin let out a cold snort.
“The Demon Sealing League is nothing.”
Zuo Tianzheng’s face stiffened in embarrassment, but he dared not argue.
“Our Demon Sealing League may not concern you, but we are backed by the Ten Palaces. Surely you’ve heard of them? The Ten Palaces are one of the divine temples, and they—”
Before he could finish, Xuan Bin interrupted with another disdainful snort.
“The Ten Palaces are nothing.”
Zuo Tianzheng was stunned. He hadn’t expected Xuan Bin to dismiss even the Ten Palaces so easily!
He took a deep breath and forced a stern expression.
“Fellow cultivator, you may be at the peak of the ninth rank of the Mahayana Realm, but you’re still far from being able to challenge the Ten Palaces.”
“Cultivation is a long and arduous path. You’ve come so far—don’t throw away your future just for Kai.”
Zuo Tianzheng’s tone turned cold, hoping to shake Xuan Bin’s resolve.
Even a peak ninth-rank Mahayana cultivator couldn’t defy the Ten Palaces!
At that moment, a voice rang out.
“If my big brother alone isn’t enough, what about me?”
Another figure stepped forward—Zhou Tang had returned!
Zuo Tianzheng’s eyes widened in shock as he stared at Zhou Tang, who was also at the peak of the ninth rank of the Mahayana Realm.
He swallowed hard.
“You too…?”
“What about us?”
Two more figures emerged—Cangyue and Hua Yueying had arrived!
“Shit…”
Zuo Tianzheng felt his scalp go numb. Why were there so many ninth-rank Mahayana cultivators here?!
“I doubt the four of you can—”
Before he could finish, three more figures in black robes appeared. Though they remained silent, the powerful aura of ninth-rank Mahayana Realm cultivators radiated from them, enveloping Zuo Tianzheng completely.
“This… this…”
Zuo Tianzheng stared at the overwhelming number of ninth-rank Mahayana cultivators before him, his face contorting in despair. He looked as if he were on the verge of tears.
“These are just some of my younger brothers,” Kai said with a smirk. “I wonder—do you think they’re enough to stand against the Ten Palaces?”
This was only a fraction of Kai’s forces. His strongest subordinate at the moment was Lin Chong!
Zuo Tianzheng remained silent, trying to force a smile while pleading for mercy.
But that smile was more pitiful than crying.
“Brother Kai, these guys from the Demon Sealing League are terrible! You can’t let them off so easily,” Yun’er said angrily.
Kai chuckled and gently patted Yun’er’s head.
“Don’t worry, Yun’er…”
At that moment, Zuo Tianzheng finally understood why the villagers of Dashi Village had never feared him.
With so many ninth-rank Mahayana cultivators standing behind them, what did they have to fear from the Demon Sealing League?
“Down with the Demon Sealing League!”
Suddenly, an elder behind Zuo Tianzheng raised his fist and shouted before striking Zuo Tianzheng with a palm.
Caught off guard, Zuo Tianzheng crashed to the ground face-first, spitting out blood!
“Fellow Daoist Chen, I was forced to join the Demon Sealing League! I have never done anything against the heavens,” the elder pleaded desperately.
“I beg you—spare me for the sake of my 8,000-year-old mother and my 500-year-old child!”
The elder fell to his knees, bowing before Kai with sincerity.
Seeing this, the other Demon Sealing League cultivators also dropped to their knees, pleading for mercy!
Zuo Tianzheng spat out more blood. Watching his own men betray him, he didn’t even have the strength to curse anymore.
Kai glanced at the kneeling cultivators and nodded.
“If you’re willing to abandon the Demon Sealing League, I’ll spare you.”
“But—you’ll have to hand over your storage bags.”
“No problem, no problem!”
Without hesitation, the elder hurriedly removed his storage bag and tossed it forward.
Seeing this, the other monks of the Demon Sealing League followed suit, quickly throwing their storage bags at Kai’s feet.
