Chapter 2650: Double Agent
Zu An knew that now that they had acquired annihilation power, Zhao Yuan and the others couldn’t be underestimated. They would have made troublesome foes anywhere else. But he held the World Law Beacon of this world, making him the true god here. He could even alter the laws of this world.
He could have altered the world laws anytime to cancel the Marks of Annihilation’s weakening effect. Similarly, the elite assassins’ deaths siphoning away his life force didn’t pose a problem to him either. He could easily regenerate it with his Primordial Origin Sutra.
He'd only been entertaining Zhao Yuan and his subordinates to gather more information about the path of annihilation. Now that he had gotten what he wanted out of them, it was time to draw the curtains on this farce.
Sensing Zu An’s aura swiftly recovering, Zhao Yuan and the others descended into despair.
He was toying with us all this time!
As the Shadow Group Master, Zhao Yuan had never tasted despair no matter how strong his opponent was. He knew an assassin’s true strength didn’t lie in direct confrontation; he simply had to engineer the most advantageous circumstances to eliminate his target.
Even so, this time, he collapsed into true despair.
After acquiring annihilation power, he'd thought he was strong enough to dominate the world, not to mention that he had the aid of the Shadow Group’s top ten elite assassins. They had also grown by leaps and bounds after acquiring annihilation power. He'd thought, Surely we can bring down a mortal with the power of a true deity?
He hadn’t expected the world to be so cruel. Is a true god’s power inferior to that of a mortal?
With his elite assassins losing their fighting spirit, he knew it was pointless to continue this fight. So, he gritted his teeth and said, “Concubine Bai and the imperial grandson are in my hands. Are you going to abandon them?”
