Chapter 204 - Appearing in the Nick of Time (2/2)

Other than those two, there were also a great many renowned, top-tier fighters out there.

“Other than those two who’re definitely huge troubles, there is also Matsuda Juuzaburo from the Amaterasu-gumi of Japan, and the strongest Taekwondo master of South Korea, Kim Min-jin, here, eh.” That old man was able to identify all those noteworthy fighters. However, the more he was able to identify, the more intense the chill he felt running down his spine. He knew very well what all those people were capable of, after all.

Any single one of them would be able to cause a huge commotion throughout a nation.

That disciple of his, who was by his side, behaved a lot meeker by then. She had seen too many capable fighters on her way there.

She would not have had any chance of meeting fighters of such caliber otherwise, and the rare chance of meeting such figures made her feel as if she was already among the strongest to be had in the world. However, she shuddered at the thought of it at the moment instead.

But then again, no one knew that there was a master and his disciple outside, and their existence was deemed pointless. Everyone had their eyes on the center of the lake, after all.

There was an even smaller island at the center of the lake, and there was a divine tree that glittered with rainbow lights and was dazzlingly bright at the center of that island.

There were two peaches about the size of a person’s hand on that divine tree.

The tree and the peaches were none other than the Peach Tree of Immortality and the Peaches of Immortality.

A man and a woman were sitting not far away from the tree itself. It was apparent that they were mending their injuries using the mystical wood qi emanating from that tree.

Both of them felt chills running down their spines constantly from being glared on by so many pairs of eyes at the moment.

“I never thought we’d meet again here, Dragon.” Adam wore a cold expression. He looked like he was some sort of emissary from hell walking among humans. He looked at both the Dragon and Ming Yueyao, who was patching up her boss. A hostile look was seen on Adam’s face.

Other than Adam, the leader of the Ark of Heaven, Saint Peter, was eager to try his hand out as well. The gaze with which he shot at the Dragon was one of intense killing intent.

The Dragon’s power was such that no common Invincible Vajra, even there were to be several of them, would have been able to injure him. Even if the Dragon were unable to win, he still would have been able to escape unscathed.

The ones who almost killed the Dragon and made him look so bad were none other than Adam and Saint Peter, as well as their subordinates.

If it had not been for Ming Yueyao and the agents of the Special Task Force putting their lives on the line, protecting the Dragon as he escaped, the Dragon might have perished quite a while ago.

While he was apparently not dead at the moment, he was evidently gravely injured.

That was why he was found sitting cross-legged from the Peach Tree of Immortality at the moment, relying on the qi emanating from the divine tree to heal himself.

However, he never thought that Adam, Saint Peter, and the others would find him there all the same.

Even Ming Yueyao looked rather despaired at the moment. No one would be able to save them during such a time, after all.

In that very tense moment, a man and two women seemingly appeared out of nowhere all of a sudden, standing near the lake.

“Huaxians!”

Everyone looked at the trio. The three of them were none other than Lu Xuan, Lu Shanshan, and Lin Miaoyi.

“She’s alive?” Adam looked at Lin Miaoyi. He vaguely remembered having taken her down, and, according to conventions, she should have been dead. Yet, there she was, alive and well.

Everything just looked too messed up at that moment.
