Chapter 14893 The Golden-Armored Man
Chapter 14893 The Golden-Armored Man
Zhang Maoran's face turned extremely ugly. The terrifying aura sent him flying hundreds of meters away, and the Holy Rune Brush in his hand also flew out.
He struggled to get up from the ground, spitting out blood repeatedly.
He was clearly seriously injured.
After all, he was the core of the Holy Rune Array, and he bore the greatest pressure, ultimately suffering the most severe injuries.
Zhang Maoran was filled with utter despair at this moment.
Just how strong is this woman in the white dress? With such a light and effortless strike, seemingly without any force, she completely destroyed all their defenses.
That's way too outrageous.
How could anyone possibly resist? He's a monster!
The woman in the white dress glanced at Zhang Maoran with disdain, then her gaze returned to Ji Mingkong and the others, a hint of amusement in her eyes.
Perhaps to her, these were just four lambs to the slaughter, whom she could easily kill if she wanted to.
"You four are lucky, so many people are risking their lives for you! But unfortunately, they are too weak and can't protect you at all. You should just... die obediently!"
The woman in the white dress spoke calmly, but her calmness concealed a powerful killing intent.
She gently raised her hand, preparing to deal with Ji Mingkong and the other three before leaving, because she was just too bored. She even felt like she was bullying these weaklings.
Faced with this terrifying pressure.
Weiwei was so frightened that she trembled all over, her face turned as white as paper, and she subconsciously shrank behind Momo, tightly gripping Momo's sleeve, not daring to even breathe.
Momo's face also turned slightly pale, but she still gritted her teeth and protected Weiwei behind her. Her eyes were full of fear, but she stubbornly refused to back down.
Zhao Tieshan suddenly drew his heavy sword from his back, gripped it tightly with both hands, and the blade gleamed with a thick, earthy yellow light. His honest face was devoid of any smile, only resolute determination remained as he stared intently at the woman in the white dress, ready to fight to the death at any moment.
Only Ji Mingkong remained at the forefront, firmly protecting the three of them behind him.
She did not back down, even though she knew the disparity in strength between the two sides was enormous and that she was powerless to resist.
Her back was ramrod straight, her face remained aloof, but her eyes were unusually firm, showing no fear whatsoever.
"senior."
Ji Mingkong's voice was unexpectedly calm, without trembling, without pleading, only with composure:
"We have no grudge against you, why do you want to kill us?"
The woman in the white dress tilted her head slightly, seemingly surprised by the question, a hint of amusement flashing in her dark eyes:
"No enmity or grudge?"
Does murder need a reason?
There should be at least one.
Ji Mingkong raised his eyes to meet her gaze, his eyes showing no fear, only calmness:
"With your strength, there's no need for you to target us young people who have just entered the chaotic martial world."
"Who ordered you? The Silent Court?"
The woman in the white dress chuckled softly, her laughter cool and tinged with sarcasm.
"You're clever, but unfortunately, you guessed wrong."
She shook her head slightly, her tone laced with mystery:
"No one instructed me; it's just that you shouldn't have stepped into the Chaotic Martial Realm at this time."
"Shouldn't have stepped into the Chaotic Martial Realm? I don't understand!"
Ji Mingkong shook her head. She really didn't understand who the four of them had offended that such a terrifyingly powerful expert would come to intercept and kill them.
This time, I'm afraid I'm really going to die.
The woman in the white dress ignored Ji Mingkong. She knew that Ji Mingkong was stalling for time, so she needed to resolve the issue as soon as possible to avoid any unforeseen complications.
In any case, this place is already close to the sphere of influence of the Holy Rune Academy. Although there is no one in the Holy Rune Academy that she fears, those Holy Runes are really a headache.
Thinking this, her attack was complete, and another black streak flew out from her palm: "You didn't offend me, but your friends did, so you deserve to die!"
The black snake transformed into a black lightning bolt and flew towards Ji Mingkong and his companions.
Zhang Maoran tried desperately to stop it, but to no avail. He was seriously injured and had no time to react. He could only watch helplessly as the attack got closer and closer to Ji Mingkong and the other three.
The others are even less capable.
Their current situation is even worse than Zhang Maoran's; let alone trying to stop them, they'd probably die if they went over.
This despair left Ji Mingkong and his companions with nothing but a helpless sigh.
Can't stop!
It's completely unstoppable!
Therefore, they didn't even make a move to resist; maintaining their posture before death was the only thing they could do.
However, at this critical moment...
A sound tore through the sky.
"You can't kill these four! I'll protect their lives!"
As the sound rang out, a golden light pierced through the void, instantly shattering the black snake that was about to hit its target.
The woman in the white dress's expression suddenly changed drastically.
She was a master, so she could sense just how terrifying the person who came was.
A golden figure descended through the air with astonishing momentum; each step seemed capable of tearing the sky apart.
He was clad in golden armor, which shone brightly.
It was as if he were a king ruling the world.
His face was obscured by a helmet, revealing only his black eyes, which radiated the absolute confidence of a powerful individual.
The woman in the white dress became increasingly nervous.
This person put immense pressure on her, just as she had put pressure on Zhang Maoran and others.
Such a powerful figure could never be an unknown person.
"Who are you, and why are you meddling in this?"
The woman in the white dress glared angrily. She was about to complete her task when someone suddenly interfered. No one could accept this.
The man in golden armor glanced indifferently at the woman in white: "You are not worthy to know my name! I have come here on the orders of my disciple to rescue these four outstanding individuals!"
"On orders from your disciple? Stop talking nonsense!"
The woman in the white dress was somewhat angry, because she felt that the man in golden armor was toying with her.
Does it make sense that such a powerful man would claim to have received the favor of his disciple?
The man in golden armor ignored the woman in white. He wasn't there to kill; he was there to save people. As long as Ji Mingkong and the other three were safe, he would consider his mission complete.
Seeing that Ji Mingkong and the others had escaped unscathed, he breathed a sigh of relief: "At least we weren't too late, otherwise that little guy would have torn me apart..."
He then looked at the woman in the white dress and said, "What are you standing there for? Get lost! I have no interest in killing you, but that doesn't mean I'm afraid to!"
"You think you can kill me?"
The woman in the white dress was also a very proud person. Although she sensed the power of the man in golden armor, she still could not tolerate anyone looking down on her like that.
Her temper flared up, and black energy surged around her, almost tangible.
Seeing this, the golden-armored man laughed: "You're really biting the hand that feeds you! I kindly spared your life, and you're still not happy? Since you want to fight, I'll fight you!"
The golden-armored man chuckled and said nothing more. He simply raised his right hand, and a soft golden light quietly gathered in his palm.
The light wasn't dazzling, yet it was so pure and flawless, so condensed as to be almost tangible. Even just its presence in the palm of one's hand caused the surrounding air to tremble slightly. (End of Chapter)
