Chapter 2589: Counterattack
The rainbow and golden light intertwined now and then, only for the chase to resume shortly after. It didn’t take long for Zu An to incur injuries.
Emperor Jun was the future Celestial Emperor, after all. Even with just a sliver of his soul in a Golden Crow Prince’s body, he was still not an opponent Zu An could deal with. His only concern earlier had been that Xihe and Zu An would join forces against him, but in a 1-on-1, Zu An had no chance of turning the tables on him at all.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you die so easily. I’ll rip off your flesh bit by bit, and your soul shall eternally suffer in the Myriad Souls Banner!” Emperor Jun spat threats through clenched jaws while chasing after Zu An. He wanted to see Zu An suffer a mental breakdown.
But Zu An didn’t show the slightest fear. Instead, he calmly replied, “You said such words earlier too, but I’m still prancing around here. As a Celestial Emperor, you need to do more than running your mouth.”
Emperor Jun’s cheeks twitched. He'd wanted to erode Zu An’s willpower, but the latter had turned the tables on him.
You have successfully trolled Emperor Jun for +600... +600... +600...
He had no idea why he easily lost control of his emotions whenever he was dealing with Zu An. Someone of his level of cultivation was supposed to have far greater control over their emotions.
However, a smile soon formed on his face. Zu An was fleeing toward the South Celestial Gate. Despite his calm exterior, he must be panicking inside to flee to the South Celestial Gate of all places. Did Xihe not tell him that Zhao Lingguan and the celestial soldiers stationed there are all my people?
He couldn’t wait to see the look on Zu An’s face.
However, when he saw Zu An’s appearance changing into that of his original body, his smile suddenly stiffened up. “What is that bastard up to? Who does he think he's fooling with such cheap tricks?”
In the meantime, the two of them reached the South Celestial Gate. Zhao Lingguan and the celestial soldiers had long noticed the commotion and rushed over.
