But before Xiao Tianyu could finish his sentence, Kael immediately responded with a cold tone that cut through the air like a knife."I already told you, he's not for sale. Stop making offers because it's pointless."Kael took a step to leave him once again, his body turning calmly, as if this conversation was already over and there was nothing more to discuss.However—Xiao Tianyu's hand suddenly shot out, gripping Kael's shoulder with considerable force.Kael stopped, standing still, feeling the hand that had so brazenly touched his shoulder.Xiao Tianyu smiled widely, this time his smile full of arrogance that was no longer hidden."You misunderstand," he said in a tone that now sounded threatening. "I no longer intend to buy your spirit eagle."He brought his face a bit closer, his blue eyes staring sharply at Kael."I want to take it by force!"Silence.A gentle breeze blew, carrying thin dust between them.And then...Kael slowly turned his head—just slightly, enough to look at

Kael walked through the bustling streets filled with merchants and cultivators from all corners. His eyes swept the surroundings calmly, looking for signboards or buildings that looked like inns.The shouts of merchants mixed with the loud chatter of cultivators. Some were showing off weapons, some offering strength-enhancing pills, and there were even those selling secret maps containing treasure locations—all sounding like lies packaged neatly.Kael wasn't interested.He kept walking, passing through the crowds without looking left or right, until—CLOP! CLOP! CLOP!The sound of spirit horses' hooves galloping fast suddenly echoed from behind. People around immediately stepped aside to the edge of the road, making way for the group approaching quickly.Kael stopped walking.Not out of fear, but because the horses stopped right in front of him—completely blocking the way.Six spirit horses with beautiful yet majestic pure white coats stood in a line. Their fur gleamed like snow under

A week had passed since that brief encounter. Kael continued his journey toward the Righteous Dragon Sect without any significant obstacles.Clear skies greeted him almost every day. The mountain paths he traveled were now calmer—no high-level spirit beasts blocking the way, no foolish bandits trying their luck, and no sudden storms disrupting Tu Feng's flight.Kael passed through green valleys filled with morning mist, soared over wide rivers flowing peacefully, and occasionally rested in small villages to restock supplies.He didn't talk much with anyone. Just bought what he needed, then left before people started wondering about the large spirit eagle waiting for him outside the village.The journey that he'd originally estimated would take two months, considering all the things he did along the way, was now completed in just a month and a half—thanks to Tu Feng flying tirelessly.And finally, on a morning when the sun had just risen from behind the eastern mountains...Kael saw it

Kael landed on the hilltop with ease, as if he'd just hopped down from a staircase rather than flying dozens of meters across a devastated forest. A thin cloud of dust swirled around his feet, but there was no heavy impact—just the soft whisper of wind that accompanied his arrival.Mu Qingya, Jiang Wei, and Qin Ruo, who were sitting weakly on the rocks, immediately felt a subtle pressure from the aura surrounding the man—not oppressive, but strong enough to make them acutely aware of the vast chasm of power between them.Kael's eyes went straight to Qin Ruo, who was still lying there weak and deathly pale. His sunken chest rose and fell irregularly, his breathing short and labored. Blood still trickled slowly from the corner of his mouth, and his right hand hung limp—crushed so badly the bones were broken in several places.Kael walked closer without saying a word. Jiang Wei, who was standing beside Qin Ruo, naturally stepped back half a pace, making way. Mu Qingya could only stare wi

The forest shook again as the Lava Devouring Lion lunged for a second time. The beast opened its massive jaws wide, spewing a stream of molten breath hot enough to melt solid rock.Kael shifted his stance half a step, vanishing from the attack’s path and reappearing beside the creature’s flank. He struck again and again, each blow roaring like thunder against steel. The ground trembled under the force, and the air hummed from the shock.But even though the monster was repeatedly knocked back, its scales still held. Only faint hairline cracks appeared. The lion roared in fury, jumping backward as glowing cracks of molten red began spreading beneath its scales — its natural defensive state when pushed to its limits.The heat pouring from its body grew so intense that nearby boulders softened and trees burst into flame just by being too close.Kael didn’t chase. He wasn’t some beast blinded by rage. And in the moment the lion tried to crush him with its full aura… he saw it — a small fis
Chapter 166
A few minutes earlier —Three spirit horses raced along a dense mountain trail. At the front rode a young woman around twenty-two, dressed in a jade-green robe marked with a silver lotus leaf emblem on her chest — the symbol of the Windtower Jade Sect, a respected mid-rank sect.Her name was Mu Qingya — the only daughter of the Sect Leader, heir to the sect, and one of the young talents invited to the Grand Tournament hosted by the Righteous Dragon Sect.Behind her followed two protectors, both men in their mid-thirties: Qin Ruo — tall, sharp-featured, with the air of a stern guardian, and Jiang Wei — hair tied back halfway, eyes calm yet razor-sharp. They had served her family since childhood and were known as intelligent and powerful escorts.They rode in silence for a long while before Jiang Wei finally spoke.“Lady Qingya, this mountain path is too narrow. We shouldn’t be cutting through the forest.”Mu Qingya sighed softly. “If we take the official road, we’ll be delayed by two m
