Chapter 2376: Bullying With Numbers
The entire Monster World had actually debated just how strong this three-headed bird really was. In the end, their conclusion was that it wasn’t that much weaker than the Monster Lord himself. Quite a few people even believed that its strength was on par with the Monster Lord’s. Whichever side it was, however, that alone proved that the three-headed bird was a powerful creature with similar strength to the Monster Lord.
Additionally, as the bird had served as the Monster Lord’s mount for so many years, the two of them shared a strong connection. It was almost as if two Monster Lords were fighting against Zu An. Just a single Monster Lord had already placed Zu An in incredible danger; with one more joining in, that made the situation overwhelmingly one-sided.
Pei Mianman gritted her teeth and prepared to rush over, but Jing Teng stopped her, asking, “What are you doing?”
“I want to help Ah Zu, of course. Helping him buy some time would still be good,” Pei Mianman replied. She knew that doing so would be extremely dangerous, but she worried that Zu An’s life could be forfeit if she didn't.
“The gap in strength between us and them is too wide. You'd only be throwing away your life if you went up there.” Jing Teng paused for a moment. She knew that she couldn't convince Pei Mianman with just those words alone, and quickly added, “So not only would you be of no help, Zu An would even have to take care of you. You’d only be putting him in even greater danger.”
Pei Mianman finally cooled her head a bit when she heard that analysis, but she still protested, “But if we don’t do anything, he’ll still be in grave danger!”
“Trust him. He's experienced situations that were even more dangerous.” Jing Teng looked at the figure in the sky. A hint of gentleness appeared in her cold eyes.
Pei Mianman bit her lip. She felt really frustrated by the fact that she was still too weak. She was actually unable to help Ah Zu in the slightest!
Jiang Luofu seemed to have read her mind. She gently patted Mianman's shoulder and tried to comfort her. “Manman, your cultivation is already incredible for your age. Now that the worlds have been merged, your cultivation will only grow greater and greater. You must keep in mind that you can't rush things, lest you end up experiencing cultivation deviation.”
