Chapter 4820
The flames in Kai’s palm burned fiercer by the second. Then, with a swift motion, he pressed his hand downward, engulfing the Tang Clan elder’s body in fire.
“I’ve never heard of using flames to bring back the dead.”
“There are many things you haven’t heard of. Why would I reveal the secret of resurrection to you?”
“But the body is nearly burned to ashes. Can it still be revived?”
The crowd murmured among themselves as they watched the shocking scene unfold.
Qian Xiaohan, equally stunned, stared in disbelief as the elder’s body gradually disintegrated, consumed entirely by the flames until nothing remained but ashes.
“Where is he? Can he still be resurrected?” Qian Xiaohan asked anxiously.
Kai grinned. “Oops, my mistake. I apologize…”
“Ah—!”
“You shameless—!” Qian Xiaohan was on the verge of losing his mind.
The surrounding spectators gasped and stared at Kai in disdain, yet he remained completely unfazed.
Even Ming Shao whispered to himself, “Damn, even I fell for that!”
With that, Ming Shao’s figure vanished instantly, reappearing back at the tavern.
Meanwhile, the Tang Clan members were seething with rage. Not only had their great elder been slain, but his body had also been burned to nothing, leaving no trace behind.
Furious, they roared and charged toward Kai.
But Kai’s expression turned ice-cold as he glared at them. “Do you all wish to end up like your great elder?”
At those words, the Tang Clan members hesitated, their advance slowing until they eventually began retreating.
Qian Xiaohan’s body trembled with anger. “Kai, you’re a Mahayana cultivator! How can you be so shameless?”
“Shameless?” Kai sneered. “You brought dozens of people from three sects just to deal with me, and you talk about shame? The Tang Clan elder was stronger than me, yet he still chose to fight when he knew I had just been through an intense battle. Is that honorable?”
“Forcing me to fight without weapons and imposing countless restrictions—do you call that having dignity?”
“I think the most shameless of all is Lian Sanmen…”
Kai’s words left Qian Xiaohan stunned.
“No matter what, you must die today! If I let you live, Lian Sanmen will lose face!”
Qian Xiaohan roared in fury, preparing to lead his men to attack Kai.
“Lian Sanmen? A mere nobody. Do you even have any face to lose?”
At that moment, a thunderous voice echoed through the sky, shaking the void itself. A powerful presence descended as figures emerged in midair!
Lin Chong arrived, accompanied by Taoist Wuji and the elite masters of Sun and Moon City.
The sight of Lin Chong made Qian Xiaohan’s expression turn unbearably grim.
Lin Keting and Lin Kefan immediately leaped forward, landing beside Lin Chong.
“Father, Lian Sanmen is utterly shameless! They ganged up on Kai, using a round-robin battle to wear him down. You must teach them a lesson!” Lin Keting pleaded.
Moments ago, she had been unable to bear watching any longer, but her strength was insufficient to help Kai. Now that her father was here, she no longer had to hold back.
“Disciple, you don’t need to say anything. Your father will act regardless. How could he stand by while his own son-in-law is bullied?”
Taoist Wuji stroked his beard with a knowing smile.
“Master!” Lin Keting’s face flushed red with embarrassment.
Kai looked at Lin Chong and smiled slightly, feeling a surge of confidence. If Qian Xiaohan made a move, Kai wouldn’t be able to hold out for much longer.
After back-to-back battles, his strength had been severely depleted—he needed time to recover.
Meanwhile, inside the tavern, Young Master Ming cast a glance at Lin Chong and murmured, “Now that Sun and Moon City has arrived, Lian Sanmen is done for.”
“Ming Shao, should we intervene?” asked the red-haired old man.
Now that Lian Sanmen had allied with the Four Underworld Palaces, they were technically part of the same faction. If they were in danger, could they really stand by and do nothing?
“Just watch for now. No need to act yet,” Ming Shao said calmly. “These people haven’t fully submitted to us.”
