Chapter 367 - Qiangu’s Persistence (2/2)
“Well, see you at the arena!” Lyu Liang took a deep breath. After slightly cupping his fists, he was gone.
“Qiangu… why are you doing this? You still don’t trust me, do you?” Wen Xiaojing said softly.
“No, I trust you even more than myself! But, regarding Lyu Liang, I must test his strength myself!” Lin Qiangu said firmly. “I’m very clear about your purpose! So, I’m also doing this for you!”
“I know. Thank you, Qiangu!” Wen Xiaojing held Lin Qiangu’s hands with gratitude. Then she said with a complex expression, “There is really no need to use all your force in the fight later. In this situation, he won’t be a match for you. But, please trust me, if we were facing a battle concerning life and death, I’d say you would never defeat him!”
“That’s impossible! He’ll not be a match for me, no matter when!” Lin Qiangu was surprised to hear that. She replied with disaffection, “Even though he could trigger the power of Divine Prohibition, I also haven’t used my own trump card. There is no chance for him to defeat me! Do you have a reason for saying that?”
“If we were attacked here, who would you protect?” Wen Xiaojing asked a seemingly unrelated question.
“Of course I’d protect you!” Lin Qiangu was confused by her words, but answered her without hesitation anyway.
“If Lyu Liang heard this question…” a light was shining in Wen Xiaojing’s eyes, “he’d say that he would protect the entire Mu Family!”
“… I kind of understand what you mean. Interesting!” Lin Qiangu pondered for a while. Then her fighting intent grew much stronger. She smiled and said, “No one else in this world would be valued so much by you. I’m just looking forward to fighting with him! But, as you wish, I won’t push too hard. As long as he can take the power of my Limitation Bounds of Blood, he’ll pass my test!”
…
In the meantime, in the core secret realm in the branch of the Pan Gu Heavenly Alliance, the conversation between father and daughter was coming to the end.
“Dad! It’s settled! Without him, I would have been a dead person now! He is not Zhu Yu! Even if you don’t care about the desperate fight between them before, he saved my life. That’s something that makes him deserve the title of a high-ranked alien minister!” Fairy Purple Phoenix pouted, shaking the sleeve of God Ancestor Night Dragon and protesting.
“OK! OK! OK! I’ll do as you tell me. Ah, my daughter has grown up and doesn’t take my side anymore!” God Ancestor Night Dragon shook his head bitterly.
“Thank you, Dad! Don’t worry, I’ll always be on your side!” Fairy Purple Phoenix exclaimed, just like a joyful rabbit. “I have to meet with Yan’er from the Ning Family. I have to go now. Don’t forget what you’ve promised me!” After that, she jumped her way out.
With another bitter laugh, God Ancestor Night Dragon returned to a calm state again. He coughed slightly, whereupon a tall, thin youth dressed in silver armor appeared after a flash of light.
He was handsome on some level, but a terrifying red scar stretched from his forehead to the corner of his left eye! And the expression of indifference on his face was exclusively owned by a Man of Sacrifice. It was interesting that he just nodded to God Ancestor Night Dragon out of politeness, but no respect could be seen on his face.
“Xiao Yi, is there any message from You Mang? It’s been a long time…” God Ancestor Night Dragon said softly without turning his head, “Lyu Liang is coming finally. About the task for Dark Wing, I’m afraid that you need to finish that for me now.”
“You Mang is indeed not that strong, but it’s still unreasonable for him to be delayed so long. In my opinion, he might have gotten into big trouble.” The youth nodded and said, “Lyu Liang is not a threat to me. As long as Wen Xiaojing doesn’t come, in consideration of his intelligence, he will not be a problem at all! I’m on it! Anyway, we’ve been at your service for some time. It’s time for my guys to do something for you! I just hope that Lyu Liang is not a total loser!”
“Actually, I hope that I’m worrying too much, because if it’s really necessary for you guys to take action…” God Ancestor Night Dragon paused with a complex expression on his face. Then he sighed and said, “Well, by that time, I will not be the only one feeling disappointed…”
“OK! Just let me find out who he is going to disappoint!” The youth sneered, with a flash of sharpness in his eyes. “Is it the Divine Auspice Cave? Evacuate all the people from the Dark Wing. I’ll send my guys to guard that place. But, I will only send the second and the third squads there, as the first squad has gone to the Chaotic Heaven Realm for a more interesting thing!”
“Are you against Zhu Yu, too?” God Ancestor Night Dragon was surprised by that fact. Then he said deeply, “Are you aware of the situation there? If possible, I don’t want to hear anything about Zhu Yu!”
“That’s my own business. Answering this kind of question is not included in our protocol. As for whether or not you will hear news about Zhu Yu… Haha…” The youth gave him a mysterious smile and disappeared.
“That’s really… a bunch of crazy people! Why did they come to me? Forget it. If only my goal can be reached, nothing else really matters!” God Ancestor Night Dragon nodded, turned around, and walked to the front of a blue wall deep inside. After a sigh, he vanished into the wall…
After one hour, at the junction between the Chaotic Heavenly Alliance and the Pan Gu Heavenly Alliance, the youth with the scar appeared after a flash of brilliance. He glanced around, and his single eye became sharp when he faced east.
“You’ve perceived it?” A buzzing sound that was clearly converted from a normal voice was heard.
“Yeah! Don’t worry, the time is just right!” the youth said with a confident smile.
“Still be careful… We cannot afford to lose…” The sound was fading away. Before the sentence was finished, it was gone already.
“Puff!” The youth closed his eye and took a deep breath. When he opened his eye again, it looked very sharp. Clenching his fists, he said, “Old friend, you’re finally here… Don’t worry. Except for you and me, no one is going to survive this!”
