Chapter 269 (2/2)

Right this moment, Xiong Bao descended from the sky. When the cannibal king saw Xiong Bao, he quickly cried for help. Xiong Bao responded and quickly flew toward the cannibal king only to suddenly attack, smas.h.i.+ng the head of the cannibal king apart. Even at his death, the second-stage King Realm cannibal still had no idea what had happened.

After killing the cannibal king, Xiong Bao vanished again. Xiang Shaoyun had no intention to fully reveal this card of his. As for the other cannibal king that was nearly dead due to Liang Zhuangmin's attack, he was finished off by Xiang Shaoyun.

After dealing with the two cannibal kings, Xiang Shaoyun went over toward the badly injured Liang Zhuangmin. Liang Zhuangmin was trying his best to control his mental state to no avail. His entire mind was flooded by the effect of the brutal energy. The moment Xiang Shaoyun approached, Liang Zhuangmin started howling and dragged his badly injured body forward, trying to attack Xiang Shaoyun. But due to the injuries he had sustained, his combat prowess had dropped significantly.

”Shut up already,” said Xiang Shaoyun as he gripped Liang Zhuangmin's arm before activating the Nether Dragon Soul Headband to draw all the brutal energy out of Liang Zhuangmin.

The Nether Dragon Soul Headband did not disappoint, as it was still able to devour the brutal energy that was not in Xiang Shaoyun's body. After the brutal energy was cleared from Liang Zhuangmin, the clarity in his eyes returned as he looked at Xiang Shaoyun with grat.i.tude on his face.

Xiang Shaoyun spoke before Liang Zhuangmin could say anything, ”You are badly injured. Heal up first. We'll speak later.”

Liang Zhuangmin nodded before taking out a healing pill and a stalk of spirit medicine to heal himself. He entered meditation right where he was. Since Xiang Shaoyun was already helping, he decided to finish the job and stand there as a guard.

For reasons unknown to even Xiang Shaoyun himself, he had helped this Liang Zhuangmin. Perhaps he was simply feeling apologetic for having taken over the first-cla.s.s estate. He also commanded Xiong Bao to stop the other cannibals heading this way before having him return to the lair as well.

Xiang Shaoyun would wait until the right time before making a move on the earthstone heart. Liang Zhuangmin was well aware that it wasn't wise to stay here for long. Thus, after a slight recovery, he stopped his meditation and said, ”I did not expect you would actually help me.”

”Hehe, well, I'm a nice guy,” said Xiang Shaoyun.

”No matter what, I have to thank you,” said Liang Zhuangmin. ”I will definitely repay your favor.”

”There's no need for that. I will be happy enough if you don't hold a grudge against me for s.n.a.t.c.hing your estate from you,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a wave of his hand.

”Haha. Do you think I, Liang Zhuangmin, will bear a grudge for something so trivial?” said Liang Zhuangmin. ”Although it was indeed embarra.s.sing for me, it's not like I haven't been an embarra.s.sment these years. You've probably heard about me, right? A mere estate is nothing compared to the prospects of entering the Skysoar Realm.”

As Liang Zhuangmin spoke, a helpless look covered his face. Evidently, he had not expected himself to be stuck at the Transformation Realm for so many years either.

”With your talent, entering the Skysoar Realm shouldn't be difficult at all. Why are you stuck, then?” asked Xiang Shaoyun curiously.

”Yes, it's supposed to be easy. But at times, things will turn out contrary to what one would expect,” said Liang Zhuangmin with a look of pain. From his expression, he seemed to have a trouble that was hard to talk about.

”Let's leave this place first. This is the territory of the cannibals. They can find us too easily here,” suggested Xiang Shaoyun.
