Chapter 460: Chapter 460 Tomb Guardian of the Holy City
Inside a vast city near the Qian Family, Jiang Xiaobai and his two companions had shed their black cloaks and were now wandering the streets.
It was an incredibly enjoyable time. Jiang Xiaobai had returned to his original food-loving self.
Walking and eating, his hands full of skewers of meat.
He was not only eating by himself, he would also feed Ao Yan, his beloved wife!
Confronted with Jiang Xiaobai’s excessive attentiveness, Ao Yan couldn’t help but laugh and accept Jiang Xiaobai’s feeding.
While the two were blissfully munching on roast skewers, Ao Cheng started to feel a bit uncomfortable.
“Damn it, I shouldn’t have tagged along.”
“Is this a trip for fun or a show of your love? Are you guys bullying me because my loved one is not by my side?”
Ao Cheng muttered resentfully, walking ahead with his head down, eager to get to the tavern and visit the Floraltower.
Experience exotic customs.
Just when he was thinking about it, Ao Cheng accidentally bumped into someone.
He was about to raise his head to curse, but suddenly felt an icy cold sensation overtaking his body, leaving him unable to breathe.
Filled with fear, he lifted his head and found a young man standing in front of him, looking as if he were dead.
“Ao Cheng, not bad, your dragon lineage abilities have improved.”
The young man smirked with contempt, flipped his wrist, and lightly touched Ao Cheng’s shoulder.
All of a sudden, Ao Cheng was sent flying backward, caught by Jiang Xiaobai behind him.
With that, the suffocating sensation of cold eventually disappeared, leaving Ao Cheng in a fit of rage.
“Who the hell are you to lay hands on me? Are you courting death?”
Ao Yan immediately stepped forward, exuding an invisible and dangerous aura as though ready to fight the man in front of her.
Jiang Xiaobai then extended his arm to stop her.
“Hehe, my brother, we seem to have never met before, have we?”
“Why are you standing in our way? What do you want?”
Creepy Dude turned to look at Jiang Xiaobai, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips: “Jiang Xiaobai, just an ordinary mortal who rocketed up in power after being taken to the Dragon Valley by Ao Yan. You’ve caused quite a stir, making many people extremely afraid of you.”
“Hiss? Did you come here just to say those two sentences?”
Jiang Xiaobai squinted his eyes, this guy was somewhat fishy.
Not only did he look like a dead man, his way of speaking was incomprehensible as well.
Just as he was pondering, a black stone appeared in Creepy Dude’s hand. The moment he saw the stone, Jiang Xiaobai’s eyes widened.
World Stone!
“Let me introduce myself, Tomb Guardian of the Sacred City, Creepy Dude.”
“You should be familiar with this item. You got one from the market; the rest should have been given to you by the Qian Family.”
“Be smart and hand it over. I can reward you. In this storage ring here are ten celestial stones. I trust that I don’t need to explain what celestial stones do.”
Creepy Dude spoke, a cold smile appeared on his face: “How you choose is up to you.”
“The outcome could be to everyone’s satisfaction, or it could be your demise.”
“Maybe you’re not afraid of death for yourself, but what if the people around you were to die? It would hurt a lot, wouldn’t it, hahaha!”
As he spoke, Creepy Dude began to laugh maniacally, seeming to have lost his mind.
Upon hearing his words, Jiang Xiaobai’s expression darkened significantly.
Threatening him was one thing, but threatening the people around him.
Absolutely unacceptable!
“I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I’ve already used the things you want.” Jiang Xiaobai replied indifferently, shrugging his shoulders, implying he was telling the truth.
Just as expected, Creepy Dude stopped laughing all together, staring at Jiang Xiaobai in disbelief.
“That’s impossible, you couldn’t possibly have used it!”
“Are you lying to me?”
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, flipping his wrist to produce a world stone, constantly tossing it up and down in his hand.
Even though the abnormal man in front of him was at the Late-Stage Merge Realm, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t take him seriously at all.
“You seem to understand what this stone can actually do, tell me, what could it do?”
Realizing that he has been played, Creepy Dude’s face twisted in a ferocious manner.
Almost instantly, ten or more dark figures appeared from all directions, their faces obscured by darkness, completely surrounding Jiang Xiaobai and the others.
On their cue, these people conjured horrifying white lights in their hands.
The next second, the three of them found themselves in a strange graveyard, surrounded by nearly a hundred people, all in the Late-Stage of Fusion!
Seeing this terrifying scene, all three of them were shocked!
What kind of method was this?
“This is your last chance, hand it over. I’m not very patient, I’ve already wasted enough time on you.”
Creepy Dude scoffed, “Don’t think that with Ao Yan near you, a Fusion Mid-Term, you can stand up against us. Even if your dragon lineage is fully activated, you still can’t withstand us.”
“Don’t waste your energy. Give me the stone and I’ll spare your life. It’s fair.”
Jiang Xiaobai felt like laughing in contempt.
Fair?
“You inhumane creature, has your brain been tarnished by the ashes? You think it’s fair that you casually threaten me?”
“Let’s fight then, you can’t scare me!”
Jiang Xiaobai snapped back at him.
“Your insolence will cost you; since you don’t want to take what’s offered, let’s start with an appetizer.”
Creepy Dude chuckled coldly, clapping lightly.
The hundreds of dark figures around them instantly opened up a path, showing behind them, three terrifyingly huge wolves charging towards them, as big as houses and smelling of raw meat, their eyes glowing a sinister red.
Roar!
The colossal wolf roared and instantly lunged at Jiang Xiaobai’s neck.
Late-Stage Merge Realm creature!
“Die!”
Jiang Xiaobai roared back, the Rainbow Abyss in his hand bursting with power, the starlight emanating from the blade illuminated the graveyard.
The blade radiated a torrent of energy, aiming directly for the wolf’s head.
This was a sword technique that pushed Jiang Xiaobai to his limits, with the comprehension of the second layer of the Nine Heavenly Stars Sword Technique and coupled with his tempered skills from training for five days straight in the war god’s realm, this was his most formidable sword technique yet!
Furthermore, Jiang Xiaobai now possessed a primordial spirit, making it even more powerful than before!
Under such a powerful blow, Gu Heng, who was also at the Late-Stage Merge Realm, might have been decapitated on the spot by Jiang Xiaobai.
This was the increase in combat power brought about by the war god’s realm. It improved combat power without regard to one’s level!
In a split second, the blade hit the wolf’s head, stopping its movement.
The terrifying roar echoed again, and after the blade disappeared, a massive and ferocious wound appeared on the wolf’s head, oozing with a thick, black liquid.
Seeing this, a spasm flickered across Jiang Xiaobai’s face.
Such a powerful strike just cracked open its skull?
No substantial damage was caused, even worse, it had only aggravated the wolf.
The next moment, the wolf let out a deafening roar, its speed tripling from before!
