Chapter 4813
“We wouldn’t dare… we wouldn’t dare…”
Qian Xiaohan was drenched in cold sweat.
“If you wish to kill Kai, that’s fine—but you must join my Three Gates,” Ming Shao declared.
“From now on, you will follow my every command.”
Qian Xiaohan hesitated, then exchanged glances with the Tang Sect’s Great Elder and the Ling Sect’s Sect Master.
“Thank you, Ming Shao! We are willing to obey your orders!”
The three of them knelt in unison.
Originally, if they wanted to eliminate Kai together, they first had to overcome Sun and Moon City’s defenses.
But now, by aligning themselves with the Four Nether Palaces, they no longer had to fear Sun and Moon City at all.
“Hahaha…”
Ming Shao laughed before shifting his gaze to the Ling Sect’s Sect Master.
“What is that little thing in your hand?”
“Replying to Ming Shao, this is the Soul-Eating Beast raised by our Ling Sect. It devours a person’s consciousness, reducing them to either death or a mindless puppet,” the Ling Sect’s Sect Master explained.
“What a fascinating little creature. I’ll take it for myself.”
Without hesitation, Ming Shao reached out and took the Soul-Eating Beast from the Ling Sect’s Sect Master.
The Sect Master dared not protest. Though it was the most treasured spirit beast of their sect, he knew better than to object.
“Alright, go find Kai. If you can’t defeat him or someone interferes, just mention my name,” Ming Shao ordered with a wave of his hand.
Qian Xiaohan and the others nodded, then descended the stairs, leading their men toward Sun and Moon City’s station in Daomen.
Meanwhile, outside Sun and Moon City’s station…
“Brother-in-law, come out quickly! The people from Liansanmen are here!”
Lin Kefan shouted loudly while leading his men to block the entrance, preventing Liansanmen from barging in.
“What do you want? This is Sun and Moon City’s station! If you dare trespass, don’t blame us for being merciless!”
Lin Kefan’s voice was firm as he glared at the intruders.
“Prince Lin, we are only here to settle our score with Kai. I hope you won’t interfere,” one of them responded.
“And don’t think Sun and Moon City can intimidate us! We are no longer just Liansanmen—we now belong to the Four Nether Palaces!”
Qian Xiaohan sneered at Lin Kefan.
“The Four Nether Palaces?”
Lin Kefan frowned but refused to step aside.
“Who dares seek revenge on me? Do you have a death wish?”
Kai emerged from the room.
At the sight of him, the members of the three sects seethed with anger, their eyes burning with fury.
“Kai! You killed our Qianmen elders and Tang Xiaoyi. Today, you’ll pay for it in blood!”
Qian Xiaohan roared.
“You dragged me here just to die as well?”
Kai scoffed, his tone full of disdain.
“Such arrogance! You’re merely a third-grade Mahayana cultivator! If not for someone possessing you to kill our three elders, you’d be nothing! And yet, you dare act so recklessly?”
Qian Xiaohan shouted, preparing to strike.
“Master Qian, allow me…”
The Ling Sect’s Sect Master stepped forward before Qian Xiaohan could act.
Lin Kefan and the others moved to intervene, but Kai stopped them.
“Stay out of this. I’ll handle it myself.”
The Ling Sect’s Sect Master waved his hand, releasing a white light that shot straight into Kai’s head.
It was the Soul-Devouring Beast—meant to consume his consciousness and leave him as nothing more than a mindless puppet.
“Ah! What is this? So powerful… How can it devour consciousness?!”
Kai feigned shock, his expression twisting in pain as if his head were about to explode.
Seeing this, the Ling Sect’s Sect Master smirked coldly.
“This is our Ling Sect’s Soul-Devouring Beast. Just accept your fate—you’ll soon be nothing but an empty husk!”
“Kai!”
Lin Keting and Hua Yueying gasped in alarm.
But Hong Yao quickly reassured them.
“Miss Lin, Miss Hua, don’t worry. Mr. Chen isn’t afraid of that beast. He’s just playing with them!”
Kai had already encountered the Soul-Devouring Beast in Tang Xiaoyi’s storage bag—and it hadn’t affected him in the slightest.
Hong Yao knew Kai was merely toying with his enemies.
