Keeper Ling and his companions are now panicking. They were able to take the upper hand earlier during the fight because they had time, but now their attention was all on the Celestial Palace and getting back. There’s way they could focus on this battle like this.
Di Cang didn’t miss this opening either. With a loud bang from his palm, he strikes at one of the old men from the rear and causes the person to spew blood from the injury.
Damn it! If we had time then this bastard won’t stand a chance against us, but we must get back now! The grumpy Keeper curses inside.
“Fight! Kill them!” Running over then and crying out that was none other than the old coot who’s been chasing in from the direction of Bai Yan’s side. He kept jumping and clapping his hands like a kid who couldn’t stop laughing.
“Hahaha! Hit them is good, hit them is good! Boy, you are good! If you kill these damn things then I will betroth my beautiful granddaughter to you.”
Frowning in his face, Di Cang didn’t understand where this old grandpa was coming from and couldn’t keep up.
Boy?
Is the old grandpa speaking to me?
“What the hell are you doing here you old coot!” Keeper Ling almost couldn’t keep his breath due to how outraged he was right now. He would strangle the other person if he’s within reach.
“Boy, hurry and kill these crazies!” Clapping his hand repeatedly and ignoring the outcry aimed at himself, “If you kill these crazies then I will give my beautiful granddaughter to you. I will also give myself to you. Buy one get one, a great deal right?”
Di Cang’s face instantly went black over that, Where the hell did this person come from? Just wait until I’m done, I’ll deal with him once I’m done!
Meanwhile in the back First Elder definitely recognizes this old coot though. First looking at Di Cang, then at the former number one Keeper of this realm, his old face subconsciously began to sweat.
How did he become like this? He was the number one Keeper of the Celestial Realm…. Furthermore, he used to hate the king to the core, what’s going on!
“Old Coot, you’ve really gone crazy! Don’t forget you’re also a member of the Celestial Palace! What good does it do you for aiding these demons!”
“Humph! You damn things killed my beautiful granddaughter! You’re the crazy one, all of you are crazy, I’m normal, I’m not crazy at all!”
Generally speaking, those that have lost their sanity would never admit to their own condition, which was the case here.
Seeing it’s pointless to let this argument to continue, Keeper Hyun decides to speak up after focusing back on his attack: “Keeper Ling, Keeper Zun, I’m afraid this demon king will not let us leave no matter what. If it was under normal circumstances, we can still drag this out and drain him till he’s weak. But what if those back at the palace doesn’t stop? If more of us dies in the process then it will be a huge loss for the Celestial Realm!”
He’s right on that point. With Di Cang’s weakened self, plus three of them attacking at once, they are bound to be on top if they continued to drag this battle out. However, the situation wasn’t going to permit them to dally around for that goal.
“So…” a flash of conviction flickers within the third Keeper’s eye over what he’s going to say, “the both of you leave now, I’ll keep him at bay here by myself!” That said, the old man didn’t wait and instantly charged at Di Cang’s figure to give his companions a chance to flee.
