Chapter 1298 Fighting No God (2/2)

No God Emperor unsheathed a sword. Out of his head.

The sword was dull, sullen, and almost unremarkable to look at it with its lack of sheen and reflection. It was as if it chewed up all the light that sought to rest on it. When the sword was fully drawn, a new power seemed to manifest inside No God Emperor. It made Han Sen feel queasy when he tried to comprehend it.

If what had just transpired was the image of a calm sea, now it was one in a typhoon of epic proportions.

Han Sen now knew he had made a mistake by trying to join in. Looking back, he thought it'd be obvious that No God wouldn't show all his cards and reveal the true extent of his power at the beginning. But now he was, and Han Sen knew they were all in peril.

No God Emperor swung his sword towards the drum beast.

More accurately, it was aimed at Han Sen who was still crouched behind it.

Han Sen saw this attack, but he could not sense any power in its weight. If anything, that just added to his concern.

Suddenly, the creeping of pain began to overwhelm his shoulder from behind. The pauldron of his armor was cut-off. Han Sen then saw what had happened to the drum beast: it had been cut in two. It died.

But strangely, even after understanding the extent of such power that had been unleashed from that one strike, Han Sen could not feel it.

”I can't believe he killed a ten gene lock super creature with one strike.” Han Sen was in utter disbelief.

”Go!” Lotus Empress grabbed Han Sen and placed him on her lotus platform and then took off in flight, abandoning Evil Lotus Shelter.

Before Han Sen could understand what had happened, he woke up as if he had been restored to consciousness. He was in the mountains someplace.

Han Sen saw Lotus Empress and asked, ”Was it okay to just leave like that? Can't he take your spirit stone?”

Lotus Empress responded by saying, ”It's not my shelter. It is a copy of my mother's shelter that I occupy for show.”

Han Sen felt relief, knowing they had gotten away. He didn't want Lotus Empress to get killed on his behalf.

”I wanted to help you, but I just made it worse,” Han Sen told her.

Lotus Empress comforted him and brought ease to these thoughts, saying, ”It wasn't your fault he wanted all the fruit for himself. I wouldn't have allowed him to take it, anyway, and a battle such as that was bound to take place, no matter what.”

”All that poor fruit,” Han Sen said.

”That's fine. No one can eat more than nine, anyway. After that, your body doesn't receive any benefits,” Lotus Empress explained.

Han Sen patted the silver fox, telling him, ”I might not have been able to eat them, but this guy could.”

As they spoke, the space before them cracked. Like a vortex that had just opened in the fabric of the dimension, No God Emperor came stomping out.
