Chapter 362 - 363: Wang Cai’s Battle
In the end, when the light flashed beneath the two assassins’ feet, signalling their elimination, Xu Liang laid flat on the platform, was thus set down, and the terrifying injuries that appeared before vanished without a trace, as if he had never been attacked at all.
Mu Can did not request to help the two brothers restore their sealed memories at this moment, because even if he helped restore memories, it would certainly be selective. Mu Can could not judge the character, or the good and evil of these two assassin brothers, and he always had an innate dislike towards assassins. He always felt that these cultivators, who lurk in the shadows, always carried ill intentions.
"I’m sorry, I always drag you down," Xu Liang said, lowering his head with a bit of embarrassment.
In these three battles, apart from casting a Rejuvenation Technique for Mu Can in the second one, Xu Liang basically played no part at all, entirely absent from the action.
"It’s okay, you’ve done well. If they hadn’t targeted you, these two assassins wouldn’t have exposed themselves. If they had attacked me, I reckon I would’ve been in a panic too."
Was Xu Liang weak? Compared to Mu Can, slightly, but compared to others, Xu Liang was not weak at all. However, when faced with those daggers flashing with cold light, he had no ability to resist and was instantly killed; this sort of powerful attack, in front of Mu Can, was simply reduced to a slight fluster. The disparity between a Martial Arts Sect and a Martial Saint was just this vast, Xu Liang thought to himself.
"What would you have done if his dagger was aimed at you?" Xu Liang suddenly asked, curious about how Mu Can would have responded to that sort of sudden attack.
"What to do? If he had really chosen me as his target, then he would have truly been seeking his own death," Mu Can chuckled.
If the two assassin brothers had targeted him, not to mention the Ice Shield Mu Can could form instantly, even without the shield, Mu Can was confident that those two daggers wouldn’t have been able to harm even a hair on him. As soon as he realized that there was no one opposite him in the arena, Mu Can had secretly mobilized the power of the Reincarnation Pearl to protect himself.
