Chapter 5588 The Price

The moment the first temple master uttered those words, everyone was utterly shocked!

Especially the Third Temple Master, who couldn’t believe that their temple’s ancestor, the first Temple Master, was actually this middle-aged man before him.

The Grand Elder of the Evil Path Hall also stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief.

He never expected that the one who would deal with him would be the first temple master.

It should be noted that the temple has existed for tens of thousands of years, which means that the first temple master has also lived for tens of thousands of years.

The elder swallowed hard, his body trembling instinctively as he retreated backward.

Faced with an ancient monster that was tens of thousands of years old, he had long lost all will to fight and his only thought was to escape as quickly as possible.

Swish…

In an instant, the Grand Elder turned and ran, his speed astonishing, like a bolt of lightning.

“He ran away…”

Seeing this, Lingxi quickly shouted loudly.

Kai was also startled and instinctively wanted to chase after them!

But Wan Jianxing remained motionless, not even glancing at the Grand Elder.

“ah……”

Soon, a scream came from the void; it was the voice of the Grand Elder.

What happened to the Grand Elder is unknown to everyone; perhaps only Wan Jianxing himself knows.

Hearing the First Elder’s screams, the Third Palace Master was so frightened that he soiled himself.

“Grandmaster, spare me! Grandmaster, spare me!”

The Third Palace Master kowtowed desperately, but Wan Jianxing had long since stopped looking at him.

Wan Jianxing’s face turned visibly pale, and his body began to slowly become transparent.

“Ancestor?” Lingxi exclaimed in shock upon seeing this.

What’s wrong with you?

Seeing Wan Jianxing’s body becoming increasingly ethereal, Kai hurriedly asked.

“Mr. Chen, this is the price I paid for forcibly leaving that void passage. I knew you were in danger, how could I not save you…”

Wan Jianxing smiled slightly, and his body began to dissipate.

“If you leave that void passage, will your soul be scattered and destroyed?”

Kai tried hard to grab Wan Jianxing, but he missed!

“No, I left a remnant soul in that void passage. Perhaps one day, when the patriarch of the gods releases me, I can rebuild my physical body.”

Wan Jianxing’s voice came, but his body had already completely disappeared.

“Kai, what exactly is going on? Where is the Ancestor?”

Lingxi asked, puzzled.

“Your ancestor offended the patriarch of the gods by making a mistake back then, so he was imprisoned in the void passage.”

“If I hadn’t come to the Eighth Heaven this time, the void passage wouldn’t have been tampered with, and I wouldn’t have been able to see him.”

“Now that he has forcibly left the void passage, his body has completely dissipated.”

Kai’s eyes flashed with intense resentment and anger.

Wan Jianxing is indeed a member of the Divine Race, but he is also a hall master of the Heavenly Dragon Palace and a subordinate of Kai.

No matter the cost, Kai was determined to find the patriarch of the God Clan and have him release Wan Jianxing so that Wan Jianxing could regain his physical body.

“Old Wan, don’t worry, I will personally bring the God Clan Chief to you and have him release you.”

Kai gritted his teeth and made a silent vow.

At this moment, the Third Palace Master was filled with excitement as he looked at the vanished Wan Jianxing.

When he saw that Kai, Ling Xi and the others were not paying attention to him, he suddenly leaped up and tried to escape.

“You still want to escape?”

Kai was furious. Seeing that the Third Palace Master was still trying to escape, he swung the Dragon-Slaying Sword with all his might.

In an instant, countless sword beams filled the heavens and earth, and the entire void was divided into segments by the sword beams.

The Third Palace Master, who had just escaped, hadn’t even had time to react before his body had already turned into blood and gore.

Countless sword beams have reduced the Third Palace Master to dust!

Upon seeing the Third Palace Master’s tragic death, all the members of the Third Palace knelt down in unison, begging for their lives.

Looking at those people, Kai knew they were just following orders.
