Chapter 819: Confrontation (2/2)
”Nike, the charioteer of Zeus. It is nice to meet you.”
Ling Tian spoke as soon as he saw her.
”If you know who I am and you are still here, you are either stupid or crazy.” The lady replied.
”Neither.”
”Who are you?”
”Ling Tian, it is funny that you don't know the person who you wanted to kill. That is some disregard.”
She raised her eyebrow and looked at him.
”Oh, you are that guy? you survived? That is unexpected. Then why are you still here, you should be thanking your luck and stayed put. Or are you expecting to die and came here to fulfill that wish?”
”Not really, I want to ask why you sent someone to kill me. To be precise on whose orders.”
”I have guts to say the name, do you have the guts to go and confront him?”
”Well, I am too weak for that, but I think I can try my luck with you can't I?”
”You? You didn't even cross the barrier to achieving god hood, what can you do to me? I can kill you in a single strike.”
”If you can, by all means, do it now. If you don't you are going to regret it until the end of your time.”
With that, the sword aura raged wildly and even the wind around turned sharper than a blade.
But Nike didn't even bat an eyelid.
She raised her arm and the clash began.
They fought wildly and as they exchanged strikes one after another, Nike felt like her whole understanding is subverted.
After half an hour, Ling Tian is standing with his whole body covered in blood.
There are several tears, wounds, bruises, and many more injuries.
He is extremely weak and he is only supporting himself with the sword.
Half of the castle is destroyed. Nike is still standing strong, but there is a scar on her abdomen tearing through her golden robes.
She is extremely angry. The surroundings started shaking. After all, how dare a mere immortal who didn't even touch the boundaries of the godhood injure her? In her opinion, such existence should even be possible and if it existed she wanted to eradicate itself.
Right before she was about to make a move, she felt a tremor around the whole realm.
”Not so fast Nike.”
Space started tearing apart in the sky as the Gambler arrived.
”Trying to kill my close subordinate? Did you have my permission?”
”Permission, you guys are in my realm, my residence? How dare you come here and swing your weight?”
”I don't have to swing my weight around. My presence is enough. Is it not right Zeus?”
He looked into the horizon as a lighting streak flew through it and came forward, a man whose aura could suffocate the whole realm is hovering in the air right in front of Gambler.
Both of their auras clashed and the lesser level creatures felt suffocated and started puking blood.
”Get out of here.”
Zeus said as purple lightning streaked around.
”Is it any way to treat your guests?”
”Guests? You are not invited here. I am telling you once again, get out of here.” Zeus insisted.
”Gambler waved his hand and the spatial energy enveloped Ling Tian carrying over.”
”I will leave, but before that, let's make an arrangement. I will come back in a few years along with Ling Tian, this time, he would finish what she started and do remember Zeus if you want to follow the path of Indra and Hou Yi. I don't mind. But I will say what I said to them. Be careful what you choose, as you have to pay for the consequences.”
With that, both of them disappeared, but the space crack that appeared created spatial turbulence which is the only sound that dared to come out from the whole planet.
As soon as they left, Nike spat out a mouthful of blood and the wound of the abdomen opened up even more as she clutched it tightly. Someone levels beneath her left her in this state. Zeus couldn't help but contemplate his actions once again.
