Chapter 640: Burnout
Zi Zhongtian's expression darkened. "Why now of all times?"
If they hadn't just learned that Li Pin might possess tier nine combat strength, his arrival wouldn't have been much of a concern. Plenty of people here could have dealt with him. But now that they had, his arrival made them tense. A tier nine combatant was enough to tip the scales.
"Could Li Pin have... already joined forces with Ai Sa. Is he planning to eliminate the Aristocratic Alliance first? Otherwise, how could his timing be this precise?"
Yuan Xiangguang's fluctuating mental spirit carried a hint of malice. He wasn't the only one with such thoughts. Many others shared the same suspicion.
"Regardless of whether he has allied with Ai Sa or not, our situation has definitely worsened. One thing is certain. We cannot allow Li Pin and Ai Sa to launch a joint attack. Otherwise, there will truly be no hope left for us."
Zi Zhongtian shifted his gaze to Shang Jinzhao and said, "Lord Shang, I'll have to trouble you to stop Li Pin. Equipped with the full set of thirty-three Divine Weapons, your Power Level is at 410,000. You're the only one here who can confront him head-on.
"Of course, it would be ideal if you can convince him to switch sides. If not, stall him, at the very least. Once we take care of Ai Sa, we can deal with Li Pin afterward."
Shang Jinzhao nodded. "Leave it to me."
In the next instant, he stepped into the air and shot toward the Divine Treasury Hall Judiciary Department's flying vessel.
Meanwhile, Ai Sa frowned. "Li Pin?"
On top of the Aristocratic Alliance, I now have to deal with Li Pin too? According to the clan's intelligence, Li Pin is a Supreme Divine Being with combat strength rumored to be at the ninth tier. If this is true, things have just become troublesome.
With things having reached this point, his appearance can only mean one thing. He has already allied himself with the Aristocratic Alliance.
