Mighty Lord

Chapter 3079: Chapter 1019:

In this way, holding the thought he had at the time, after sensing Zhou Tian’s aura, that Divine King didn’t retreat immediately. Instead, he rushed to Zhou Tian and questioned Zhou Tian about his invasion action at the time.

However...

At that time, the Divine King thought quite well, using his status and strength to pressure Zhou Tian, making Zhou Tian feel that annexing that world was not worthwhile, so he would voluntarily withdraw. But the problem now is that for that Divine King to achieve his goal, the first prerequisite would be that Zhou Tian was truly wary of his strength, and that at the time of the invasion, Zhou Tian truly did not know that such a ruler existed in that world.

But in fact, at that time, Zhou Tian not only did not fear that Divine King’s strength at all but also, before the invasion, Zhou Tian already knew that world had an "owner." However, even in that situation at that time, Zhou Tian still dared to act that way, which naturally meant that the Divine King’s idea of forcing Zhou Tian to retreat with just a word was simply impossible to achieve.

Thus, when that Divine King suddenly appeared and questioned Zhou Tian about his actions, Zhou Tian behaved as if he hadn’t heard the other party’s words. He faced the Divine King’s questioning, completely ignoring him.

"Bastard, what do you mean by this, do you want to start a war?"

Given that Zhou Tian was facing another Divine King at that time, such a dismissive attitude made him feel extremely angry. As a result, after watching Zhou Tian angrily for a while, that Divine King even shouted a threat to start the war.

However, it was very obvious; since Zhou Tian already knew his identity and still acted the way he did, it wasn’t easy to say how effective that Divine King’s threat could be.

In fact, Zhou Tian didn’t pay attention to that Divine King at all, as if the other party simply didn’t exist. Whatever Zhou Tian was doing before, he continued to do even after the Divine King appeared. Seeing Zhou Tian’s response firsthand, the face of that Divine King certainly changed immediately.

Zhou Tian’s lack of respect surely made that Divine King very angry. However, while feeling angry about Zhou Tian’s behavior, there was also a sense of unease in that Divine King’s heart.

That Divine King wasn’t stupid, and it was impossible for Zhou Tian not to sense his aura when he appeared. Yet, knowing full well that he was a Divine King and that Zhou Tian was invading his territory, Zhou Tian’s attitude in the face of his threat suggested that he wasn’t acknowledging the existence of him as a Divine King.

If there was no confidence, that Divine King did not believe Zhou Tian would have the courage to behave as he did. Since Zhou Tian showed a posture that completely disregarded him, it naturally meant Zhou Tian was confident in dealing with his threat. Thus, irrespective of Zhou Tian’s thoughts at the time, having such confidence was certainly not a comforting thought for that Divine King.

Zhou Tian didn’t care about his existence, so surely Zhou Tian would continue his current action. Whether or not he could drive Zhou Tian away, letting Zhou Tian continue like this, that Divine King already had little confidence in whether he could keep his territory.

Of course, regardless of Zhou Tian’s thoughts, since he had already shown that attitude, that Divine King certainly couldn’t remain indifferent.

In any case, Zhou Tian’s attitude had already clarified his position, and since Zhou Tian had confirmed himself as an enemy, that Divine King surely couldn’t live in peace with Zhou Tian anymore.

As a result, there was nothing more to say. When he found out that Zhou Tian completely ignored him, in his anger, that Divine King no longer cared who Zhou Tian was. Almost at the first moment when Zhou Tian exhibited that attitude, that Divine King directly launched an attack on him.

"Die!"

When facing an opponent of equal strength, Zhou Tian could disregard him, but that Divine King wouldn’t dare to underestimate Zhou Tian as an opponent. Thus, at the moment he decided to attack Zhou Tian, that Divine King indeed considered Zhou Tian to be a rival of the same level. Therefore, after making that decision, he immediately used his rule ability.

Attacking with full strength, not to mention whether he had the ability to defeat Zhou Tian, at least at that time, that Divine King’s attack was launched in pursuit of victory against Zhou Tian. Regarding that Divine King’s strength, if Zhou Tian did not resist his attack when he launched his rule abilities with full force, there really might be a possibility of being defeated by that attack.

However, it was quite apparent, although at that time Zhou Tian indeed did not truly consider that Divine King as an opponent, he wouldn’t underestimate that Divine King like he did so-called Divine Race experts. After all, considering his status and strength, when that Divine King could pose a threat to him, Zhou Tian didn’t dare to underestimate the other party.

As a result, even though Zhou Tian outwardly seemed to look down upon that Divine King, he did not give that Divine King a chance to defeat him. Even if he hadn’t gone all out, when facing that Divine King’s attack, Zhou Tian still made some preparations.

There was no visible action from Zhou Tian, but just as at that time, when that Divine King launched an attack at him, his expression suddenly changed, and then, as if encountering something terrifying, he immediately prepared to flee from that world without a word.

"From the moment you entered this world, you decided your future. I won’t let you leave, so you shouldn’t expect an opportunity to leave." Regarding that Divine King’s reaction at the time, Zhou Tian didn’t think it was surprising; although he didn’t have any special display, based on the situation, from all aspects, that Divine King was already doomed.

There was no reason why that Divine King would suddenly flee unless something significant had occurred, even if Zhou Tian’s strength was truly above him. Without an actual battle, admitting defeat before being defeated at Zhou Tian’s hands, even if the Divine King realized his strength was not as good as Zhou Tian’s, it was unlikely he would easily admit that fact.

Therefore, even if Zhou Tian possessed enormous strength, that Divine King surely wouldn’t consider himself inferior. In that situation, not defeating Zhou Tian meant the Divine King wouldn’t surrender.

And at that time, when the Divine King suddenly fled without actually battling Zhou Tian, unless there was a problem with his mind, it must mean he discovered something that convinced him he could no longer be a match for Zhou Tian under those circumstances. Otherwise, considering the arrogance of a Divine King, even knowing he was outmatched, it was impossible for him to just flee without engaging in a real fight.

What really happened?

Considering the strength of that Divine King at the time, although Zhou Tian wasn’t afraid of the other party, if Zhou Tian wanted to defeat him, it wouldn’t have been an easy task. Therefore, in that situation where Zhou Tian’s strength wasn’t necessarily dominant, unless there was a reason, that Divine King would never have retreated.

The reason that Divine King retreated at the time was that Zhou Tian, faced with that Divine King, displayed such confidence entirely due to one reason. That reason was, with the help of Zhou Tian, the Abyss World had already begun annexing that world. Furthermore, at the time that Divine King appeared, that world had almost fallen completely under the control of the Abyssal Consciousness. (To be continued.
