Chapter 4982

“A prisoner has escaped from the prison! It’s a female cultivator from the human race. All soldiers, prepare for battle immediately!”

An anxious voice echoed through the air.

“Damn it, are they trying to work us to death?” one soldier complained.

The soldiers who had already removed their armor hurried to put it back on and began running nervously throughout the city.

Kai and the other four used the chaos as cover to move around the city as well.

Originally, Kai had planned to visit the small mountain town, but after learning that the eighth master of the temple, Huo Zhao, was there, he decided not to provoke him. Now, his only option was to find another way out of Feihu City without drawing attention.

“Let’s use this chance to find somewhere to hide. This armor is way too stuffy,” Kai said.

“Alright, let’s find a hiding spot first,” Fengxian agreed.

The group found a secluded area and prepared to remove their heavy armor.

But just as they were about to do so, a sudden flash of sword light slashed toward them.

The unexpected attack startled all four of them.

As if anticipating danger, Kai instantly summoned the Dragon Slaying Sword, which blocked the incoming strike.

At that moment, they noticed a woman in black concealed nearby. She held a long sword and glared fiercely at them.

Judging by her aura, she was in the first-grade Immortal Realm and radiated the presence of the human race.

It was clear—this woman was the escaped prisoner.

After her initial attack was blocked, she launched another assault against them.

However, she didn’t release her full strength, keeping her aura tightly controlled—likely to avoid drawing attention from others.

Seeing her hesitation, Kai smirked coldly, stepped forward, and didn’t dodge. He let her blade strike directly against his armor.

The soldiers’ armor was extremely durable, and Kai’s body was exceptionally strong. Even if the armor broke, he had nothing to fear.

He closed the distance, grabbed the woman’s wrist, and applied force. The long sword slipped from her grasp and clattered to the ground.

Subduing her was surprisingly easy.
“You beasts… you’ll die a miserable death!”

The woman struggled fiercely as she shouted.

“Keep screaming, and the four of us will take turns with you…”

Kai threatened coldly.

The woman froze, fear flickering in her eyes, and quickly fell silent.

Bai Yi’s face turned red. “Xiansheng, don’t joke like that. With our identities, how could we touch a woman?”

“Father-in-law, I was just trying to scare her. Why are you taking it so seriously?”

Kai shook his head, speechless.

It seemed like Bai Yi might’ve actually been tempted.

The woman looked confused as she heard them address each other as “Xiansheng” and “Father-in-law.”

At that moment, Kai removed his helmet, revealing his face. Then he channeled a surge of human spiritual energy into the woman’s body.

Sensing the human aura, her eyes widened with shock and disbelief.

“You… you’re…”

She stared at Kai, speechless for a moment.

“We’re not soldiers of Feihu City. We sneaked in too, and we’re trying to escape now.”

Kai explained calmly.

Hearing this, the woman visibly relaxed, and the hostility vanished from her face.

“Brother, we can’t even protect ourselves. Why bother getting involved with her?”

Fengxian muttered to Kai.

“Shut up. Are you the eldest brother, or am I?” Kai snapped coldly.

“You are! I’ll listen to you!” Fengxian replied quickly.

“Miss, who are you? How did you end up captured in Feihu City?”

Kai asked her seriously.

Judging by her strength as a Scattered Immortal, it was unlikely she had simply been guided here by the Great Dao.
