Chapter 1573: Chapter 1573: He is now at the end of his tether
Beiting Huangâs move was an ambush. His strength was already greater than everyone elseâs, and when the Gale Giant Dragon let out a dragonâs roar, it shook heaven and earth. Before the crowd could react, a tremendously powerful Energy Wave cut across them at waist level. Immediately after, an attack heavy as mountains crushed down upon them. Many didnât even see what hit them before they were dead.
Ying Xian and Lan Yinshui, much stronger than the companions they had brought with them, narrowly dodged the attack. Looking up, they saw Beiting Huang descending from the sky, hovering midair above the battlefield. The two felt a surge of anger; Lan Yinshui especially couldnât control his temper, âLord Huang Jiu, what is the meaning of this?â
At this point, Zhuu Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief. Not waiting for Lan Yinshui to finish speaking, he coldly interjected, âLan Yinshui, what then was your purpose just now?â
Lan Yinshui wanted to speak, but Ying Xian, seeing Beiting Huangâs dark and stormy expression, feared they might have bitten off more they could chew; he quickly held back Lan Yinshui and bowed to Beiting Huang, saying, âLord Huang Jiu, Iâm afraid there might have been some offense just nowâŠâ
âOffense? How can you speak of offense? You clearly wanted to steal the Jade Ganoderma I was offering to Lord Huang Jiu. You killed several of our people!â Zhuu Shuâs face turned green with rage, incredulous that these people would claim it was a misunderstanding.
Beiting Huang swept his gaze over them â although there were less than ten survivors from the Dark Demon Domain, Ying Dragon and Blue Phoenix clans, along with Ying Xian and Lan Yinshui, amounted to barely three to five people. These few, not even daring to lift their eyelids, shrank back, feeling his gaze and instinctively stepping backwards.
âFair enough!â Beiting Huang raised his hand to stop Zhuu Shu, then nodded at Ying Xian, as if agreeing with his statement, âIndeed, it was a misunderstanding. Let bygones be bygones.â
At these words, the survivors were stunned. Even Zhuu Yun, not particularly close to Beiting Huang, sensed that this might not be in Beiting Huangâs usual manner. But Zhuu Shu, not thinking too far, took comfort in his masterâs decision not to pursue the matter further.
Ying Xian, on the other hand, was greatly relieved. The sheer power of Beiting Huangâs recent move had almost shattered his divine soul. Even if Beiting Huang had not ambushed them, and had instead fought openly, he wouldnât have been able to withstand that move. For Huang Jiu to let bygones be bygones was more than he could have hoped for.
Lan Yinshui, however, saw things differently. He speculated that perhaps Lord Beiting Huang had spoken such conciliatory words because he had overexerted himself in the skirmish with the magical beast that had tried to steal his treasure.
Considering this, Lan Yinshui couldnât help but be tempted, knowing that Huang Jiu possessed a treasure of the demon god. They had come into this space and hadnât come away with anything else yet, otherwise why would they covet a single Jade Ganoderma?
On seeing this, Lan Yinshui couldnât help but gather a ball of energy in his hand, ready to strike, but was forcibly held back by Ying Xian, who telepathically said to her, âIf you want to throw your life away, I donât care, but if you think Iâll help you, youâre deluding yourself!â
âWhy? Heâs at the end of his ropeâŠâ
âWhether heâs at the end of his rope or not, I donât know. All I do know is that even if he is on the verge of death, heâs still capable of crushing us to death!â Ying Xian was furious, unable to understand why the Blue Phoenix clan would send such a fool on this mission.
