Chapter 704 - A bustling night (2/2)

King Kong widened his eyes as he could not believe what he had just heard.

“Do you know me?” Ming asked with surprise as he looked at Xiao Quanren.

“Of course I do. When I was still a child a hundred years ago, I had seen you once in the Arcana land,” Xiao Quanren answered.

Ming replied calmly, “Oh? Is that so? You do not age well then. It has only been a hundred years and your body has decayed to such a sorry state.”

Making that statement, Ming felt superior as he had kept his youthful looks, unlike Xiao Quanren who appeared old and wrinkled. It was the unique feature of the Light Clan, which made him extremely proud.

“How could folk like us compare to the people of the Light Clan? We would not have left the Arcana land in the first place if we were like you,” Xiao Quanren said.

Ming did not answer him. He merely stared at Xiao Quanren quietly.

“It is surely an eventful night. May I join the fun? Haha, haha…”

Another elderly voice came out from nowhere. It was a heavenly sound coming from above that filled the sky and the earth. It was a commanding voice that exuded supreme authority.

A thin, old man with a hunch descended from the night sky.

“The guardian of this world. You are finally here!” Ming said, feeling slightly concerned. But he promptly regained his calm.

This old man surprised King Kong, for he was none other than the elderly man who sometimes cleaned the canteen at the NSA headquarters. He was a man that even the two chiefs did not dare to mess with.

Xiao Quanren saw the old man and respectfully bowed to him. He greeted, “Master Long!”

He did not know the old man’s name but only knew that his surname was Long. He was not sure how old Master Long was. All he knew was that when the leader of the Xiao Clan brought the clansmen to this world from the Arcana land, he was already there.

“You don’t have to be so courteous.”

The old man raised his hand, then stared at Ming with his murky eyes. “If I am not wrong, you’re one of the four kings of the Light Clan, the King of Swords. Are you going to turn back on our agreement? How dare you come to stir up such trouble during my watch!”

“I simply came to fetch the Holy Highness of the Light Clan,” Ming replied calmly.

“I don’t care about your excuses. That you have stepped into this world has already betrayed the agreement we have with the Light Clan. That’s it. You can leave only after defeating me. If not, stay here forever with her!” The old man changed his reserved nature to a more forceful personality. He was ready to fight.

Ming stared at him calmly and said, “As you wish!”

“Fine, come!”

The old man looked very stern and serious.

Before he finished speaking, the duel between the two was underway. The old man emanated a powerful aura, and his tremendous power was sending rippling waves of energy across the wetland park. At that moment, his body looked like an imposing giant who reached the skies. He had an awe-inspiring presence.

Facing him, Ming appeared ethereal as the space between the two opponents turned into a storm of raging energy, causing thunder to rumble in the sky.

Suddenly, they both levitated and soared through the pitch-black sky.

The two men had ascended thousands of meters up into the sky. Nobody could see them anymore. Flashes of lightning and relentless thunderclaps filled the night sky. Then the rain abated briefly, before pouring again intermittently. There would be a momentary heavy downpour, then it would stop briefly, before pouring heavily again. Every time the rain stopped, there would be thunderous sounds of explosions in the sky above.

The police officers were dumbfounded and could only watch in a stupor.King Kong was astounded and his understanding of the world completely changed as he witnessed the battle.
