Ever since Ling Hua joined the Awakener Guild and became a guardian, he'd never been chased this hard! He recalled how, when he first joined the guild, he'd agreed to the guild leader's unreasonable demands, knowing he wouldn't kill him. But now, it was different. This little thief was really going to kill him! He was injured and no match for this little thief.
Ling Hua panicked and flew towards the sea. Wang Xiaohai was not slow either, following behind like a meteor, gradually closing the distance.
There's no escape!
Ling Hua gritted his teeth and stopped, turned around, grasped the stick, and prepared to fight to the death.
Unexpectedly, when Wang Xiaohai saw Ling Hua stop flying, he also stopped, kept a distance, and looked at the other party quietly.
"Let me go, I'll tell you a secret." Ling Hua said to Wang Xiaohai in the air, "In the world of smart people, there is no hatred, only interests and exchanges."
"Do I look like a smart person?"
Wang Xiaohai slowly lowered the golden sword. He was not afraid of the protector Ling Hua playing tricks. The other party didn't have much fighting power anymore, but he still had to be careful. No one knew if the other party would have some hidden means, just like Wang Xiaohai himself, so he kept his distance and left himself some room to respond.
"You don't look like it, you are." Ling Hua said, "I'm talking about the president's secret, the secret of his immortality!"
The secret of immortality! Its value is hard to say, perhaps priceless, or perhaps not very valuable, depending on the intelligence, but it is enough to exchange for the other party's life.
"Tell me, and take me to the location of the Awakener Guild, and I will let you go."
Wang Xiaohai thought about the fact that every nation on this planet had Awakened members. Could it be that they were all promoted by their own generals? He thought that at least most of them weren't, because he had heard that after someone Awakened, they would immediately be called up by the Awakened Guild and become a member. Once you become a member of a guild, you definitely won't have much freedom.
"Are the country's elders or worshippers appointed by the Awakened Guild?" Wang Xiaohai asked Ling Hua, "or are the country's Awakened ones staying in their hometown?"
"Both. It's no secret. As long as you pay half of your annual tax revenue to the Awakener Guild as protection money, the guild will send people to this country to ensure that no Awakener or above can casually participate in the war between the two countries, unless one of the Awakeners takes action first." Ling Hua replied, "Some people want to return to their own country after Awakening. As long as the amount of protection tribute is sufficient, they can be guaranteed."
As expected! Wang Xiaohai understood that all the countries on this planet were merely working for the Awakener Guild. So, by robbing the national treasury, he was essentially robbing the Awakener Guild's money. That was why the Guild was so angry and sent the Vice President and the Guardian to eliminate him!
It seems that most of the wealth of this planet is in the Awakener's Guild. There is no need to search for it in each country. He can just go directly to the Awakener's Guild. Wang Xiaohai has little time left and can no longer slowly search the national treasury. However, the Awakener's Guild is full of martial saints, and it is not easy to rob it!
Why was this planet so much smaller than the Evil Spirit Continent, and why were there dozens of times more Awakeners, or Martial Saints, than on the Evil Spirit Continent? Wang Xiaohai didn't understand this, but he had a hunch that he would find the answer when he arrived at the Awakener Guild.
"What is the secret of your guild leader's immortality?" Wang Xiaohai asked.
"That's not a pleasant answer," Ling Hua said. "The leader of the Awakened Guild has a special martial art. I don't know the name, but it can absorb fifty years of a person's lifespan to extend his own. Of course, this technique only works on Awakened people, because those who haven't awakened will die instantly if they're hit, and it can't absorb the lifespan at all!"
"Is this your president's secret to immortality?" Wang Xiaohai said, "Stealing someone's life? That's much more ruthless than me. I only want money, he wants his life!"
Guardian Ling Hua nodded and said painfully, "He always has a way to detect every newly awakened person on the continent, and then send a guardian or a master who is in the middle stage of awakening to bring that person to Quan Island so that he can absorb their life. Each person can only withstand the president's martial arts once, so he needs the continent to constantly produce awakened people. War is the fastest way for warriors to increase their strength, so he stipulates that awakened people cannot interfere in wars at will. If he kills those who can awaken, he will have no backup life!"
Wang Xiaohai felt that the guardian's statement was somewhat plausible. A martial art as defiant as Life Draining must have limitations. If it could be used on ordinary people, wouldn't he be immortal? However, despite its limitations, this move was still a rare and defiant martial art. After all, if there were enough Awakened Ones, it could also achieve immortality. Only when all Awakened Ones died would he slowly die!
"You're just going to give your lives to him willingly?" The breeze blew the corners of Wang Xiaohai's clothes, making them feel a little cold. "Won't you unite and resist?"
Guardian Ling Hua laughed and cried, shaking his head. "It's impossible to defeat him! The Guild Master is a master at the pinnacle of the Awakening Realm. His combat skills and experience have been cultivated for over a thousand years, and he has long since reached the theoretical limit of this realm. No matter how we unite, we are no match! Also, he has drained our lives once, and his mark is etched in our bodies. Within a certain range, he can cause the mark to explode with a single thought, killing the bearer. That's why the Guild Master is unbeatable on this planet!"
"The limit?" Wang Xiaohai said, "How do you think I would perform against him?"
Ling Hua looked at Wang Xiaohai and answered seriously, "To be honest, you are the only person I have ever seen who can surpass the limit. There have been people who have been able to challenge those who are higher in level before, but they were all between unawakened people. Those who have crossed the level challenged weaker people of the higher level. You should know that the theoretical limit of a low level is to challenge a stronger person of a higher level and be equal to him in strength. But you are not awakened yet you can kill an awakened person. This is beyond the theoretical limit!"
It has to be said that Ling Hua's words made Wang Xiaohai feel a little inflated.
"Although you are very strong, in my opinion, you are still no match for the president." Ling Hua immediately attacked Wang Xiaohai after praising him, "Because you haven't awakened yet, you haven't experienced the awakening skills of a truly powerful awakener. Those who haven't awakened are simply unable to resist."
"Awakening skill?" Wang Xiaohai said, "Use it, and I'll see if I can resist it."
"Only the legendary awakened masters have it." Ling Hua said, "Of course I don't have it. The vice president of that guild also has it, but he was seriously injured before he could use it, so you won't see him use it."
Wang Xiaohai thought that the awakened one was the Martial Saint. He thought of Qin’s bamboo world moves, which were extremely powerful and should be awakening skills!
"Take me to Quan Island," Wang Xiaohai said, "and then you can leave."
"Do you really want to fight with the president?" Ling Hua couldn't believe it. He thought Wang Xiaohai would just find a country on the mainland and live in hiding. As long as he didn't awaken, he wouldn't be found by the president.
"I want to give it a try. After all, not everyone has the opportunity to fight against the strongest person." Wang Xiaohai said in a firm tone without any hesitation.
"Okay, since you want to commit suicide, I won't stop you!" Ling Hua turned his body and flew away.
Wang Xiaohai followed closely behind.
