Chapter 402 (2/2)
“Amongst the three of us, I’m the weakest. Moreover, there are also countless bishops in the Terrine Shrine who are old monsters who had lived for over 100 years. Any of them would have stronger powers than me.”
Fang Xingjian squinted slightly. The little snake’s main prowess was his army of dragons. It was something which even Sasa had not been able to defeat easily. At his level, he would be ranked in the third tier even amongst level 29 Conferred Knights. He could even be at the very top of level 29 Conferred Knights. He was someone who could possibly stand up for a few moves against those in the second tier such as Governor Devitt.
After all, those in level 29 could be said to have the greatest gap in their abilities. Even though they could all be at level 29, some of them might have 100 skill seeds while others might have 1,000; some of them might have refined 10,000 physical particles while others might have perfected the refining of all 1.08 billion particles in their bodies; some of them might have synthesized three sets of techniques while others might have synthesized 30 sets… When all these factors were taken into consideration, the gap became far too wide.
Clearly, it was the same for Mages. Although Fang Xingjian did not know how they cultivated, it was obvious that the differences between their abilities were worlds apart.
However, ever since Fang Xingjian had fought against the Knight on the arena who seemed to have used magic prints, and thereafter, against the bishop at the Terrene Shrine’s base and had seen his magic, a guess appeared in Fang Xingjian’s heart.
‘My body, toward black magic, seems to…’
He looked toward the little snake and said, “You mean that I’ve offended the Terrene Shrine and am doomed?”
“That’s right.” The little snake looked at Fang Xingjian with a vicious expression. The reason he had said so much earlier was so that Fang Xingjian would feel wary toward the Terrene Shrine. “Your limit lies there. No matter how much hard work you put in, there’s no way that you’ll be able to go against black magic. Therefore, even if I were to die, there would be someone even more powerful coming to deal with you. You’re doomed!”
“Is that so?” Fang Xingjian said nonchalantly. “Since you feel that I’m doomed, then take me to Terrene Shrine’s base.”
“What?!”
Fang Xingjian continued, “Take me to Terrene Shrine’s base and let them kill me.”
“That is impossible! Do you think that I’m an idiot?”
“Are you scared? Since you feel that I’m far from a match for Mages, why don’t you dare let me barge into your base?” said Fang Xingjian calmly as he looked at the little snake, wearing a deep and unfathomable expression which made it hard for others to tell what his intentions were.
Right now, the little snake was also extremely baffled. He could not tell what Fang Xingjian was thinking.
‘Is there a trap? Are there other people with Fang Xingjian? James? The people with the Second Prince?
‘But I didn’t sense any presences earlier on. Have they just arrived?’
Just as he was thinking about this, streams of sharp auras seeped out of Fang Xingjian’s hand. “If you’re unwilling, I won’t waste my time either. You can go and die.”
The little snake was stunned for a moment before he felt surges of powerful killing aura surrounding him.
‘Damn it! What’s going on?! What on earth is this guy thinking?
‘What should I do? What should I do?’
Seeing Fang Xingjian’s look of indifference made the little snake even more confounded over what Fang Xingjian was thinking. What was backing him up?
‘No matter what, if I don’t bring him there, I will end up in a very bad state.
‘But if I were to bring him there and I got discovered, then wouldn’t I be seen as a traitor to the Terrene Shrine?’
At that moment, the killing intent in Fang Xingjian’s eyes grew increasingly stronger, “You’re still hesitating? Do you really think that you still have a choice?”
“Haha, Fang Xingjian, you don’t understand how terrifying the Terrene Shrine is. It’s impossible for you to get any information out from me. You might as well kill me.”
