Chapter 2554: Mastermind
Concern appeared in the Goddess of Wu Mountain’s usually cold eyes. She intended to step forward to help Zu An when a sudden flash of seven-colored light caused the furious Nuba to vanish into thin air.
The Goddess of Wu Mountain’s mouth opened so wide that one could fit a chicken egg into it. Thinking that Nuba had hidden herself using a special movement skill, she quickly scanned the surroundings with her ki, but Nuba was truly nowhere to be found.
Even the heat and dryness were beginning to recede. Nuba had truly vanished.
Xingtian and Kuafu exchanged relieved looks. Whew, we aren’t the only ones who fell for that.
Yumen Beiqing was shocked and intimidated. His Seven-Colored Divine Halo is capable of subjugating Nuba too! I must only make a move when I’m confident of victory, or else there won’t be a second chance.
He’s just a normal human. Other than being taller, more handsome, and more muscular than average, there are hardly any strengths to him. How did he obtain such a ridiculously overpowered ability?
Another seven-colored light flickered around Zu An, and a disoriented Nuba fell to the ground. Zu An looked at her and said, “It was the Celestial Emperor who sentenced Gu to death based on the celestial laws. If you agree to not go after the goddess and the others, I’ll spare your life in light of the fact that you're still grieving over your son.”
Nuba coldly spat, “What if I refuse?”
“Then I’ll kill you right now,” Zu An calmly replied, as if it was something insignificant. He had weathered many storms and had been in a position of authority for a long time, so he naturally exuded an air of intimidation.
Nuba fell silent. She sensed that it wasn’t an empty bluff. She was ill-tempered, but she was no fool. The other party’s Seven-Colored Divine Halo was incredible. If she obstinately marched down this path, only death awaited her, but she needed to stay alive to avenge her son.
“I promise you.” She harrumphed before taking her leave.
