Chapter 5800
That gaze was too calm, so calm it was unsettling, as if looking at an ant that could be crushed with a flick of the wrist!
“Roar!!”
The fusion beast leader roared instinctively, dispelling the fear in his heart, and swung his bone hammer with the force to split mountains and shatter rocks, smashing it down towards Kai!
He wanted to smash this strange human into a pulp!
Kai still didn’t draw his sword, nor did he use any complex techniques.
He simply raised his left hand, fingers spread, and gently gripped the massive bone hammer that was hurtling towards him.
“Crack!”
A tooth-grinding sound of bones shattering rang out!
The bone hammer, forged from the bones of an unknown demonic beast and incredibly hard, instantly cracked like rotten wood under Kai’s seemingly fair and slender hand, then exploded into countless fragments with a “bang!”
Not only that, but clear cracking sounds also came from the arms of the fusion beast leader that were holding the hammer.
As if struck head-on by an invisible force, he screamed and flew backward, spitting blood, crashing heavily onto rocks dozens of feet away. His bones were broken, and he could no longer rise.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
From Kai’s appearance and the killing of the Demon Sect elder to crushing the bone hammer and severely injuring the Fusion Beast leader, only two or three breaths had passed.
The scene fell into a deathly silence.
All the surviving Demon Sect disciples and Fusion Beast warriors were frozen in place, staring in utter terror at the young man in blue robes standing with his hands behind his back.
Their two strongest leaders, one dead and the other severely injured, in a single exchange—this was completely beyond their comprehension.
The Sword Sect disciples were even more dumbfounded, their hands gripping their swords trembling slightly.
Although they had heard rumors while stationed at the Sword Sect, they had never witnessed it firsthand, and deep down, they harbored some doubts.
Now, witnessing Kai eliminate two powerful enemies as easily as crushing two insects, the visual and psychological impact was unparalleled!
The crimson longsword in Ling Shuang’s hand had fallen limply at some point.
She stared blankly at Kai’s back; the figure in the blue robe that had previously seemed so pretentious to her now appeared incredibly tall and unfathomable.
She remembered her father’s words, Kai’s indifferent gaze, and her previous contempt and disdain… A surge of intense shame and unprecedented shock overwhelmed her like a tidal wave. So… what Father said was true.
So… I was the one who was so narrow-minded and blind.
What kind of being was he, really?
Kai ignored the shock of the crowd.
His gaze swept over the remaining enemies, his voice calm yet carrying an undeniable authority: “Surrender, or die.”
Those four simple words struck the hearts of the remaining Demon Sect disciples and Beast Fusion warriors like a hammer blow.
Looking at the elder’s corpse on the ground, and hearing the painful groans of the Beast Fusion leader not far away, their last vestiges of fighting spirit crumbled instantly.
“Clang!”
“Clang!”
The sounds of weapons hitting the ground rang out one after another. The dozen or so surviving enemies all knelt on the ground, their faces pale, trembling.
Only then did Kai turn around and look at Ling Shuang, who hadn’t fully recovered her senses.
Ling Shuang met his gaze, her delicate body trembled slightly, and she instinctively looked away, her cheeks burning. A mix of emotions welled up inside her—fear, gratitude, and an overwhelming sense of shame.
“Miss Ling, have the battlefield cleaned up, interrogate the prisoners, and find out the defenses in this area, as well as… the direction the Rift Heaven Sect Master and the others might have fled.”
Kai’s tone remained calm, as if his swift and decisive actions just now were not his doing.
“…Yes.”
Ling Shuang lowered her head, her voice barely audible, no longer displaying her previous arrogance.
She took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down, and began directing the still somewhat dazed disciples.
When she secretly glanced again at the figure in green robes walking to the side, gazing towards the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, her eyes had completely changed. There
was no longer any contempt or resentment in them; instead, there was deep awe, and a hint of curiosity and inquiry that even she herself hadn’t noticed rising within her.
Just who exactly is this Senior Chen?
