Chapter 4954

“Senior, if you ever need it, you’re welcome to enter the tower and cultivate anytime,” Kai said with a smile. “After all, we’ve known each other for a while, and you brought me to such a great place.”

Upon hearing this, Fengxian was immediately thrilled. He grabbed Kai’s hand and pulled him to kneel on the ground. “Heaven above, earth below, from this day forward, I and—wait, what’s your name again?”

“My name is Kai,” Kai replied, a bit confused.

“From this day forward, Kai and I are sworn brothers. We shall share both joy and hardship. We ask not to be born on the same day, month, and year—but to…”

“Senior, that’s enough, really…” Kai quickly pulled Fengxian back to his feet.

He was still very young and likely had a long life ahead. Fengxian, on the other hand, had already lived for countless years—Kai didn’t want to be bound to die on the same day as him!

“We’re brothers now—why are you still calling me ‘senior’? It sounds too distant,” Fengxian said.

“From now on, let’s just call each other brothers.”

Then, clasping his fists, Fengxian respectfully said to Kai, “Big Brother!”

“Huh?” Kai was stunned. “How did I become the elder brother?”

This Crazy Immortal was clearly much older than him. How could he be the big brother?

“When two people become sworn brothers, it’s not about age—it’s about strength,” Fengxian explained. “You’re stronger than me, so naturally, you’re the elder.”

“Big Brother, please accept my respects.”

With that, the Crazy Immortal knelt again before Kai.

Kai rushed forward to stop him. “Senior—no, no, you can’t do this…”

“If you don’t recognize me, I won’t get up,” the Crazy Immortal said solemnly from the ground.

“All right, all right, I recognize you! Now please get up,” Kai said helplessly.

“Big Brother!” the Crazy Immortal called out again.

“Little Brother, get up already!” Kai replied.

Kai had no choice but to call him “little brother.”

Only then did Feng Xian stand up happily. “Big Brother, if you ever need anything, just let me know. I still have some influence in Rhino City.”

“Even though I’ve been trapped in this purgatory for hundreds of years, everyone still knows the name Feng Xian.”

“Alright then, I’ll take my leave now,” Kai said with a nod.

Gadfly, who had been watching everything unfold through the bronze mirror, was deeply impressed by Feng Xian’s adaptable behavior.

This guy had actually knelt down to Kai and called him big brother.

“Hmph, spineless fool,” Gadfly muttered coldly. “Just to get your hands on someone’s magic treasure, and you’re willing to become their little brother.”

Then, without hesitation, he shouted, “Prepare the teleportation array! I’m heading to the Purgatory Field to meet my big brother!”

After seeing Kai’s Demon-Suppressing Tower, Gadfly no longer cared about winning Kai over—he simply wanted to be accepted as Kai’s little brother.

Even spending a year or two inside that tower could mean gaining a century’s worth of cultivation.

Meanwhile, Bai Yi, who had been waiting outside the Purgatory Field, was beginning to grow anxious.

He feared something might have happened to Kai inside. After all, Kai had only recently reached the Immortal Realm, and he had been inside for quite some time.

Just as Bai Yi’s concern peaked, a flash of white light suddenly appeared near the entrance of the Purgatory Field.

Within the light, Gadfly emerged, accompanied by a dozen guards.

The staff guarding the Purgatory Field and the attendant sister quickly ran over and knelt before Gadfly.

“We didn’t know the City Lord was coming. Please forgive us…” the staff sister said, her voice trembling.

It had been many years since the City Lord last visited. This place was far from the City Lord’s mansion, and although there was a teleportation array, it required a great deal of resources—so Gadfly rarely came.

His sudden appearance today startled everyone, leaving them nervous and unsure of what had happened.

Even Bai Yi was surprised at the sight of Gadfly and couldn’t understand why the City Lord had shown up so unexpectedly.

“Have the ones undergoing trial in the Purgatory come out yet?” Gadfly asked the staff.
