Chapter 749 - The Strong Are Respected (1/2)

<strong>Translator: </strong>CKtalon

Crack! Crack!

The Guardian armor on Xia Liuchuan’s body cracked. It wasn’t shattering, but the armor was automatically disintegrating.

The black jade-like armor quickly disintegrated from Xia Liuchuan’s body and condensed into a figure in the air.

It was a black jade golem. It looked very strange. It had the appearance of a human, but its body was black jade.

Old Master Xia looked at Xia Liuchuan and said coldly, “In this world, only strength is the eternal truth. The so-called Guardian only wants to protect humans who can make it stronger. I’m far stronger than you, so it abandoned you and chose me. The rules of the world are just that cruel. The strong are respected.”

As Old Master Xia spoke, the black-jade-like Guardian had already transformed into armor again. However, this time, it was on Old Master Xia.

Old Master Xia’s white hair had already turned completely black. Wearing the black jade Guardian armor, he looked even more majestic and heroic. His nose was slightly aquiline, giving him the look of the ruthlessness of an ambitious and ruthless character. It made people fear him.

Without the protection of the black jade armor, Xia Liuchuan’s Essence Energy began to leak out as it was absorbed by the Heaven and Earth Origin-Returning Array.

Old Master Xia already had terrifying Essence Energy and vitality. Now, with the power of the black jade armor, his strength was unimaginable. With a punch, Xia Liuchuan only had time to raise his arm to block before he was sent flying. He slammed into the light barrier and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Zhou Wen was still striking the barrier, but he hadn’t blasted it open. When he turned his head and saw this scene, he was somewhat alarmed.

Although I knew that Guardians are unreliable, I never expected them to be so unreliable. It actually betrayed its owner just like that. Thankfully, I didn’t contract a Guardian. Zhou Wen was secretly glad that he didn’t contract with Guardians.

Zhou Wen secretly decided that unless it was a master-slave contract like Demonic Neonate, even if he couldn’t advance to the Mythical stage, he definitely wouldn’t contract a Guardian.

Now, there was no time for Zhou Wen to think too much. Xia Liuchuan was already at his limits. If he didn’t leave, he would only be able to fight Old Sicko Xia in the Heaven and Earth Origin-Returning Array. Fighting him here would be too disadvantageous.

However, the barrier was too hard. The power of the Demon Dragon True Body couldn’t blast it open in a short period of time. By the time he blasted it open, Old Sicko Xia would have already charged over.

Suddenly, Zhou Wen thought of an idea. Although he didn’t know if it would work, he had to give it a try.

Looking at Xia Xuanyue, who had expended all her Essence Energy and was losing her essence, vitality, and spirit, Zhou Wen switched to the Dao Sutra and summoned the Heaven-Opening Scripture of the Highest Elder to protect himself and Xia Xuanyue. Then, he hugged the log to his waist and slammed it into the light barrier of the Heaven and Earth Origin-Returning Array.

I’ve carried you for so long. If you don’t give me some help, I’m going to die here, Zhou Wen thought as the log slammed into the barrier.

Zhou Wen originally wanted to try using the heavy mass of the log to aid him, but to his surprise, he heard a loud thud.

The entire Heaven and Earth Origin-Returning Array’s barrier shattered like glass. It stopped operating as the golden runes beneath dimmed.

Everyone was stunned as Old Master Xia gave up on attacking Xia Liuchuan. He turned his head and looked at Zhou Wen, staring at the log in his arms with a puzzled look.
