Chapter 1387: Li Jingzhe's Decision
The Faceless Other King's uncaring laughter echoed throughout the area. Everyone's expressions changed as they could sense the frightening undulations of energy coming from it. They all scattered in a desperate attempt to flee.
The Faceless Other King's featureless visage squirmed as it locked onto Li Luo. "Brat, you're my target, so how can I let you flee?"
Being locked onto by a Dual Crowned King caused Li Luo to feel a chill. However, his face didn't betray any hint of fear as he tightly gripped the handle of his sword. The only reason why this creature would come specifically for him was the Genesis Seed.
Jiang Qing'e came to the same conclusion, but before she spoke, Li Luo glanced at her. This was the first time she saw Li Luo give her this sort of expression. She couldn't help but to feel a little sour in her heart. She understood what Li Luo was thinking.
He wanted to use himself as bait to attract unwanted attention away from her.
Jiang Qing'e's slender fingers were clenched into a tight fist as she knew that Li Luo wanted to protect her. However, the two of them were now one and inseparable. If something were to happen to him, she would ignite her Heart of Light and go down together in a blaze of glory rather than live alone. She did not wish to be by herself while bearing thoughts of avenging him.
"Protect Little Luo!" At this point in time, Li Qingpeng, Li Jinpan, and Ox Biaobiao rushed towards Li Luo upon hearing the Faceless Other King's words. One towering Duke Bergfried after another rushed into the skies, striking the Faceless Other King without hesitation.
They were terrified in their hearts, having to face a Dual Crowned King, but for the sake of protecting Li Luo, they were willing to give it their all.
Meanwhile, Qin Baiyan and the rest cowered in fear, unwilling to provoke a King.
