Chapter 5373

Kai picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and said calmly, “I feel so ashamed to accept the Prime Minister’s kindness. I wonder if the Prime Minister invited me here today for any other reason besides making friends?”

Liu Kun’s eyes flashed with approval. He felt that Kai was a straightforward person, so he stopped beating around the bush and spoke directly: “To be honest, I invited you here today because I want you to stay in the Kingdom of God and assist me.”

“Assisting the Prime Minister?”

Kai feigned surprise. “The Lord has already intended for me to assist in the investigation of the Leiyin Bell. If I assist the Prime Minister, wouldn’t that go against the Lord’s wishes?”

“The king is kind, but sometimes he is too indecisive.”

Liu Kun said with a hint of disdain, “Now the Divine Realm is facing internal and external troubles, the Thunder Sound Bell has been stolen, the Demonic Soul is about to be born, and the Divine Temple is watching covetously. Only I can stabilize the situation.

If Mr. Chen can assist me, when I take control of the divine kingdom, I will definitely appoint you as the ‘Great General Protecting the Nation’, grant you thousands of acres of fertile land, and countless immortal stones.

As for the cultivation resources required for the Golden Dragon Bloodline, I will also do my best to provide them.”

At this point, Liu Kun’s gaze fell on the storage bag on Kai’s waist, a trace of greed flashing in his eyes. “I heard that you have a magical weapon in your hands, called the Dragon Slaying Sword? If you are willing to lend me the Dragon Slaying Sword, I will also hand over part of the military power of the National Defense Corps to you.”

Kai sneered in his heart, and finally understood Liu Kun’s purpose – not only did he want to win him over to serve him, but he also coveted the Dragon Slaying Sword, and might even want to make use of his golden dragon bloodline.

He put down his wine glass and said in a cold tone, “I appreciate the Prime Minister’s kindness, but I am a partner with the Kingdom of God, not someone’s subordinate. The Dragon Slaying Sword is my sword and I never lend it to anyone. Please take back your words, Prime Minister.”

The smile on Liu Kun’s face instantly disappeared, and his eyes turned gloomy. “Mr. Chen, are you not giving me face? I invited you out of kindness, but you are so ungrateful?”

“It’s not that Chen is ungrateful, it’s just that we have different ideals and cannot work together.”

Kai stood up and said, “Since we don’t agree, I’ll take my leave.”

“Want to leave?”

Liu Kun slammed the stone table, and the black-robed monks outside the pavilion immediately surrounded him, their auras locked on Kai. “Mr. Chen, I’ll give you one last chance—either stay and assist me, or don’t blame me for being rude!”

“You’re welcome?”

Kai sneered, “Does the Prime Minister think he can keep me here with these people?”

“I know you are very powerful. Even Ao Lie is not your opponent.”

Liu Kun said sinisterly, “But do you think I will only send these people? To tell you the truth, I invited you here today for your Dragon Slaying Sword and Golden Dragon Spirit! As long as I can take your spirit and refine your Golden Dragon bloodline, my strength will be able to reach a new level. At that time, the entire Divine Kingdom will be under my control!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge light curtain of formation suddenly lit up around Yaoyue Pavilion, covering the entire pavilion.

As the formation started to work, countless black runes emerged, emitting a sinister and strange aura that could actually suppress the spiritual power of the cultivators.

“This is the ‘Spirit Locking Formation’, specifically used to suppress the spiritual power of the powerful.”

Liu Kun smiled proudly and said, “Mr. Chen, even if you have the blood of the Golden Dragon, you can’t even exert 30% of your strength in this Soul Locking Formation. If you know what’s good for you, just hand over the Dragon Slaying Sword and your soul. I might even be able to leave you with an intact body.”

Kai’s eyes turned cold, and he flipped his right hand. The Dragon Slaying Sword appeared in his hand, and silver lightning flashed as he slashed towards the black-robed monks around him.

However, the suppression of the formation was indeed powerful. The spiritual power in his body sluggishly flowed, and the power of the Dragon Slaying Sword was greatly reduced.

“Stop him!”

Liu Kun shouted.

The black-robed monks attacked one after another, using various magical weapons and supernatural powers to attack Kai.

An eighth-grade cultivator in the Earthly Immortal Realm held a giant axe and slashed out a golden axe light, heading straight for Kai’s head;

Another monk cast a large black net, trying to trap Kai.

Kai dodged the axe and swung the Dragon Slaying Sword to cut through the black net.
