Chapter 2248 — Deeply Unwilling
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
His five viscera and six bowels were utterly shattered, his meridians broken beyond repair. In such a state, no amount of miraculous elixirs could save him now. Yet he worried for his disciple's safety, and with deep unwillingness he lifted his head—only to see a scene of utter horror!
From the direction of the Grand Protector and Wei Zhao, a thunderclap of world-shaking force suddenly erupted, and amid the flying sand and stones, a mushroom cloud rose into the sky!
The Heaven-Rank Madman did not know what had happened, but he guessed that Wei Zhao must have devised some method to take his enemy down with him. Could the boy have carried a nuclear weapon up the mountain?
He could not make out the situation over there. Anxious at heart, yet his body would not move an inch...
The thick smoke... finally dispersed. The trembling of the Ulanhot Mountain Range ceased, and the sand and stones that had filled the sky were blown away to who knew where. Where the fighting had taken place inside the great hall, a colossal crater now gaped.
Though Wei Zhao had spent every ounce of his energy and was gravely wounded, he still forced himself to walk toward the crater...
When he reached the crater's edge, Wei Zhao was astonished—astonished that the Grand Protector was actually... still not dead, even under an energy blast of such magnitude! This thing really did have some ability!
Yet Wei Zhao was not worried, for the Grand Protector could no longer be called a man! His arms and legs had long since vanished, a huge hole gaped in his abdomen, and his head was a mass of blood and gore. He was likely holding on by a thread of true qi alone—death was only moments away.
"Old dog, how does it feel? Pretty comfortable, isn't it?" Wei Zhao looked down at the Grand Protector in the crater with a cold sneer.
The Grand Protector stared at Wei Zhao, and through his clouded eyes flashed unwillingness and incomprehension! He could never have imagined that Wei Zhao, an expert of the middle Earth-Rank, could unleash such a powerful move! What kind of move was this?
Though bewildered, though shocked and furious, he dared not open his mouth to speak; he feared that the moment he did, his true qi would escape and he would drop dead on the spot! He dreamed that someone might come up the mountain to save him, that his fellow sect members might arrive—he absolutely had to pass this crucial news on to them!
This middle Earth-Rank expert before him—by whatever means necessary, he had to be eliminated!
Too monstrous, too powerful. If he were allowed to grow, the whole martial landscape of the cultivation world might be turned upside down! This boy could not be left alive.
"A fine early Heaven-Rank expert like you, beaten like a dog by a mere middle Earth-Rank boy—doesn't that feel great?" Wei Zhao looked at the Grand Protector before him with deep satisfaction: "Oh, that's right—you're not even as good as a dog. My family's dog could crush you under one paw right now!"
The Grand Protector's chest heaved. He stared at Wei Zhao in shock and fury, yet did not open his mouth.
"Feeling stifled, are you? Dying to know how I could beat you, aren't you?" Wei Zhao asked with a cold sneer. "Tell me where you come from and what your connection is to the Tagan family, and I'll tell you how I beat you!" (To be continued) RQ
