Chapter 1850 The Li Family Boss
Luoyang Military Governor's Office.
In An Tianzuo's office, a man sat opposite An Tianzuo with his legs crossed on An Tianzuo's office. The chair under his butt only had two legs supporting the ground, and he looked very lazy.
This man in front of him was probably the first one in all these years who dared to be so unruly in front of An Tianzuo.
"Have you thought it through?" An Tianzuo looked at the man in front of him with a frown.
"What's there to think about? Didn't I make the decision when I embarked on this path?" the man said with a smile.
"Maybe there's no need to be so risky." An Tianzuo said softly.
"Xiao Zuo Zuo, when did you become so steady? I have lived my life like this." The man curled his lips.
"So far, no normal human has been able to walk up there. Those two people can no longer be considered human beings." An Tianzuo ignored the man's teasing and continued.
"Then I, Li Xiao, will be the first normal human being to walk up." said the man.
"What if it fails?"
"Then die."
"What about the Li family?"
"The Li family still has the second and third sons. Over the years, the Li family has gotten by just fine without me. With the second son around, I'm assured of all the family matters, big and small. The third son is unreliable. He's always playing smart and self-righteous, thinking that no one else can understand him and that he's the only one who's most clear-headed. In reality, he's just a pitiful little thief trying to cover his ears while stealing a bell. But with the second son and the one from your family watching over him, I have nothing to worry about."
Li Xiao thought of the man who had stood at the city gate and stared at him when he left Guide Ancient City just now. He couldn't help but sigh, "Your guy is getting stronger and stronger. We are no longer as good as him. We have the same father and mother, so why are your personalities so different?"
An Tianzuo glared at him and said, "Don't say that. If Xiao Jing hears it, I will chop you down right now without you having to go to the Tianming Platform."
"You want to protect this one, you want to protect that one, but how long can you protect them? Sometimes, you should let go and let them grow up." Li Xiao said seriously.
"I'm just afraid that she will grow up. If she doesn't grow up, she will always be my sister, and I can protect her from the wind and rain. If she grows up, I don't know if she can still recognize me as her big brother." An Tianzuo sighed.
"It's a 50-50 chance, don't you want to give it a try?" Li Xiao said with a wicked smile.
"I won't risk her." An Tianzuo said in a deep voice.
"Are you getting older and more indecisive? If you don't fight, I will. If I can enter the end of the world, I may be able to fight that person in the future." Li smiled and walked towards the door.
"Li Xiao." An Tianzuo stood up and called Li Xiao.
"What are you doing?" Li Xiao turned around and asked with a smile.
"Come back." An Tianzuo only said two words.
"Of course I have to come back. This time, I walked ahead of you. You lost." Li Xiao turned and walked out of the office, disappearing without looking back.
"This time, you must win." An Tianzuo looked at the open office door and stood there for a long time without coming back to his senses.
The Rubik's Cube screen shone brightly, and the image of the ladder appeared again.
"Another human has broken through. Who is that person? Why have we never seen him before? Could he be another big evil?"
Now the people of the Federation are starting to feel a bit paranoid. The first person to go up, Wang Mingyuan, is the biggest traitor of mankind, and the second person on the list is the biggest devil in the history of the Federation. Both of the people on the list are not good people.
"I hope he's a good person, otherwise my faith is about to collapse. It makes me doubt whether only evil people can live a better life in this world."
"Don't be so pessimistic, we still have the Human Emperor."
"Yeah, I don't know what the Human Emperor is doing. Why didn't he come to challenge us?"
"With such a good opportunity, the Human Emperor shouldn't give it up. Even before he entered the apocalypse, he was already able to fight against apocalyptic creatures. Once he enters the apocalypse, who would dare to come and presume on those creatures from other dimensions?"
While people were talking, Li Xiao on the ladder had already moved.
The guardian appeared behind Li Xiao and turned into armor that wrapped around his entire body.
Seeing the Guardian appear, people couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
After all, the guardians are humans who rely on the power of other dimensions to become strong.
Can such a person be considered a strong human being?
Wearing the guardian armor, Li Xiao walked up the ladder step by step.
He didn't walk very fast, and every step seemed to use up all his strength, as if he was carrying a mountain.
"Old Zhou, do you think he can do it?" Li Xuan was sitting in front of the Rubik's Cube, feeling uneasy and even afraid to look at the Rubik's Cube screen.
"I don't know." Zhou Wen shook his head. He had never seen anyone using a guardian to walk up the Destiny Platform. He didn't know whether the rules of the Destiny Platform would allow such a person to reach the top.
"Can't you say something auspicious?" Li Xuan sat back in his chair like a deflated ball.
"If I say I don't know, it means there is still a chance. If I say there is no chance, then there really is no chance." Zhou Wen said.
"You..." Li Xuan didn't know what to say to Zhou Wen for a moment.
It sounds like that, but it does make people feel uncomfortable.
Li Xiao continued to move forward. Although he walked very slowly, he maintained this speed and did not slow down.
When he was about halfway there, the first stone step began to fall away.
Judging from the speed at which the stone steps were falling, if Li Xiao continued to walk at this speed, he would probably fall down along with the stone steps before he even reached the Tianming Platform.
Li Xiao took a deep breath and suddenly quickened his pace.
People were surprised to see that Li Xiao could actually speed up, and Li Xuan clenched his fists excitedly.
But Zhou Wen frowned. He saw some cracks on Li Xiao's guardian armor that were almost invisible to the naked eye.
The faster Li Xiao walked, the more cracks appeared on his guardian armor. Soon, even Li Xuan could see the cracks.
"Nothing will happen, right?" Li Xuan became more and more panicked.
If the guardian's armor breaks, how can Li Xiao walk onto the Destiny Platform?
Snap! Snap!
After walking for a while, Li Xiao's pace became slower and slower, and the cracks on the guardian armor on his body became bigger and bigger, and one could even hear the sound of the armor breaking.
Li Xiao is still dozens of stone steps away from the Tianming Platform, but it seems that the guardian armor on his body is about to collapse.
The stone steps behind were falling faster and faster, and there were only a few hundred steps left to Li Xiao.
"Old man, come on, we're almost there." Li Xiao raised his leg and stepped onto another step.
But all the armor on his body was cracking, and the armor on his calf was cracked and a piece fell off.
With every step Li Xiao took, some of the armor on his body fell off, and it fell faster and faster, and it seemed that it was about to collapse completely.
Li Xiao took another step forward. He still had more than a dozen stone steps to go to the Tianming Platform, and there were only a few dozen stone steps left that had not fallen off.
Bang!
The guardian armor on his body exploded completely, turning into fragments that fell all over the sky, leaving Li Xiao's body completely exposed, as if he was nailed to the stone steps and unable to move.
