Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Swoosh!
The golden trident that fell from the sky yielded 300,000 combat power. To the 12 Temple Guardians, they firmly believed that this attack could at least kill a dozen of Demonic Beasts, and they could end the battle within ten minutes.
“Look there! It seems the Demonic Beasts Horde have come to a stop!”
Those who were watching the fight were filled with excitement.
“The 12 Temple Guardians are so damn powerful! The Demonic Beasts Horde could be put to a stop after only one attack just now! I believe that they will be able to eliminate all of them in no time!”
“Ain’t that right?! This is why the 12 Temple Guardians are the personal bodyguards of Ninth Young Lord! Of course, they are powerful enough to annihilate those Demonic Beasts!”
“We are so lucky! The Ninth Young Lord has just protected us! From today onwards, I will stay loyal to him no matter what!”
“You are right! All hail the Ninth Young Lord! All hail the Ninth Young Lord!”
Seeing that the situation had made a quick turn, all the people started to give praise to Ninth Young Lord. It was as if they could hear victory knocking at their doors.
“Hehe… didn’t I tell you guys earlier. This is just a Demonic Beasts Horde! It’s not scary at all! It seems like the battle will end in ten minutes!” said Ximen Dingjun.
Upon hearing that, the crowd praised him even more. Even Old Meng could finally let out a sigh of relief. He too believed that the 12 Temple Guardians would win in this war.
“Such is life…”
Wenren Muyue let out a sigh of disappointment. It seemed like she had no reason to believe that the 12 Temple Guards would lose in this fight. In other words, she would never be able to get her hands on the Golden Purple Succulent Herb! To make matters worse she was only left with five months to live. Taking it away from her would mean sentencing her to death.
After knowing that, Miao Yiyue and Dong Xiaowu were left in a depressing state as well. They wanted to help Wenren Muyue but there was nothing they could do. At that moment, everyone thought that the 12 Temple Guardians has won the fight. Chen Xiaobei was the only that had noticed an inevitable threat approaching the 12 Temple Guardians.
Swoosh!
A shadow that moved as fast as lighting moved among the Demonic Beasts ten meters before the golden trident landed on all those Demonic Beasts. It moved so fast that not even Chen Xiaobei could have a clear look on it.
But!
Chen Xiaobei had already knew that the Demonic Beasts didn’t come here to lose the battle. They must have had an organized plan with them! They were here to annihilate all the humans, leaving none behind!
Rumble…
Seconds later, the golden trident clashed with the shadow!
The force generated by the clash had managed to shake the ground and wind that was strong enough to shake off all the leaves from the trees around them. One could only imagine how powerful the being was. At that moment, Chen Xiaobei could finally see that it was a Crystal Armor Rhinoceros charging at the golden trident.
Clearly, this rhinoceros was at the pinnacle phase of diamond tier and its combat power was 220,990. Logically speaking, it was actually weaker than the power of golden trident.
But!
It had a whopping 300,000 health! It must have triggered its Special Ability when it came in contact with the golden trident.
There was a rainbow colored halo surrounding its crystal horn. Seemingly, it helped with increasing its health. This fight was like a sharp spear trying to penetrate a tough shield.
Shinng!
Just as expected, the Crystal Armor Rhinoceros had managed to break the golden trident. And, it seemed like it had no intention to stop its attack. It leaped into the sky and prepared to toss itself at the 12 Temple Guardians.
“Oh god… How could there be such a powerful Demonic Beast hidden amongst the Horde?!”
Seconds ago, the Temple Guardians thought that they had won the fight. Now, all of them were left in a paniced state. All these while, it would seem that those Demonic Beasts were just acting weak in front of them. They wanted to make the Temple Guardians let their guard down. This was to make sure that they could launch their powerful surprise attack without any hiccups.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Before they recovered from their shock, there were another seven to eight shadows charging at them. Judging from their speed and strength, it seemed that they were the Crystal Armor Rhinoceros. Surely, this surprise attack would be powerful enough to kill all the Temple Guardians since they had no time to setup their defense.
“Run! Everyone! Run!
The leader of the Temple Guardians let out a scream of desolation and started to shove his allies hard to run for his life.
Rumble…
Seconds later, the Crystal Armor Rhinoceros landed on head of the Temple Guardian and two other Temple Guardians. This lethal attack had instantly turned them into minced meat.
“BOSS!!!”
The rest of the nine Temple Guardians were screaming their lungs out in sheer terror. They would have been killed if their leader did not shove them aside earlier on.
“Stupid humans! You bunch of trash are not even worthy of blocking our path! How naïve!”
None of the Temple Guardians could understand what the Crystal Armor Rhinoceros was trying to say. The first thought that crossed their mind was to run for their lives.
“Are you guys trying to run away from me?! Dream on!” the Crystal Armor Rhinoceros put on a smirk and said.
Before the Temple Guardians realized it, the rest of the seven powerful Demonic Beats had already attacked them.
“Help… Help us!”
While running for their lives, all nine of them were screaming for help in a hysterical manner. Seconds later, the seven Demonic Beasts had caught up with them.
Some had their throats ripped open.
Some had their chests slashed.
In a blink of an eye, seven of them were dead.
There were only two Temple Guardians left alive.
“What is going on? Why did the Temple Guardians cease their attacks on the Demonic Beasts?”
The crowd was left in a puzzled state.
“Ninth Young Lord! The Temple Guardians have been defeated! Please… allow me to go and rescue them!” shouted Old Meng in desperation.
