Chapter 2241: Bunch of untrustworthy
At this moment, Delma was in a very sorry state. If he were facing one great expert, even a very senior one, he would have various ways to cope. Even if he could not win, he could still withdraw with ease.
As a high-ranking successor of the Reina Star people, he certainly possessed that much ability.
But just now, he and his guard, two great experts, had been facing several times their number of enemies. Even one strike from each of them would have been enough to wear them down. He now had several wounds still bleeding, and internally, he felt a burning, searing pain. A sign of severe injury.
Yet under such adverse conditions, Delma keenly noticed that when he thought he could no longer hold on, the several great experts of the Huo'er Star people suddenly reduced the intensity of their attacks.
This discovery revived Delma's heart, which had already begun to despair.
He quickly found the reason why these people had acted this way.
Delma thought of two possibilities. First, the Huo'er Star people did not want to be the ones to personally kill him, so that if the matter were ever exposed later, most of the blame could be shifted onto the Su Clan.
Second, they might want to take him alive. After all, the Reina Star people's main force was about to arrive, and they might not want to go all the way.
Either possibility was good news for him.
