Chapter 371: 186
Cloud upon the Sea sneered coldly and waved his hand. The three Throne powerhouses beside him immediately surrounded Logan.
The three of them had just joined forces to kill the demon beast and exhausted quite a bit of their divine power. They hated Logan, the mastermind behind it all, and wanted nothing more than to grind him to dust.
Logan retreated four or five steps, not wanting to be surrounded. This way, once reinforcements arrived, his plan to sow discord would fall apart, and his sweet talk would be of no use.
Seeing Logan’s fear, Cloud upon the Sea chuckled, “Logan, weren’t you quite arrogant before? How come you don’t even have the courage to take action now? It seems that your lie has been exposed, and there’s no reinforcement coming, especially in this Ancient Road Illusion.”
If it were outside, the Lord might appear to help Logan, but not here. Even if the Lord had extraordinary abilities, he would not be able to teleport from Capital City to the Illusion realm.
Logan remained calm and confident, “My reinforcements will arrive soon, within three minutes at most. If you, Cloud upon the Sea, have the guts, you might as well wait and see if my words are true or false.”
“You’re just trying to buy time. Do you think I can’t see through your little trick? However, I don’t recommend playing along with you because I want to see your most desperate moment before killing you myself.”
Cloud upon the Sea laughed arrogantly and waved his hand to let his three bodyguards retreat. He wanted to see what tricks Logan would play. Of course, to prevent Logan from escaping, the three bodyguards also occupied different positions so that they could react and take action at any time if Logan tried to flee in any direction.
In his heart, Logan calculated how to stir up trouble between the two parties once the Great Complete Throne arrived. He had tricked Cloud upon the Sea several times before, so it would not be easy to deceive him again.
The situation was disadvantageous for Logan. After all, he had to face enemies from both sides, fighting four Thrones alone. Even with his great strength, it might be hopeless. If he could not make the two parties fight each other, he might really fall here today.
Time passed, and the Great Complete Throne arrived, enraged at the sight of Logan. The grudge for killing the Young Master must be avenged today. Logan must not be allowed to leave the Illusion realm.
Logan immediately reacted and took the initiative to approach the other party, “Finally, you are here. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. How could I deal with Cloud upon the Sea and others without your help?”
At these words, the other party was dumbfounded. Weren’t he and Logan enemies? Why was Logan blaming him instead? Shouldn’t enemies be red-eyed at the sight of each other, different from his thoughts?
Just as he was about to speak, Cloud upon the Sea preempted him, “So you really have a helper. Your momentum is quite strong, just like a master, but you want to fight against my three bodyguards with just one person?”
At this moment, his three bodyguards had a dark expression on their faces. This was because Cloud upon the Sea could not see the strength of the other party. Although they were Thrones as well, the difference between them and the other party was not small. The other party had reached the Great Complete Throne, while they were only at the ordinary Throne level.
Although they had an advantage in numbers, their strength was vastly different. Even if the three of them teamed up and fought to the death, they would end up losing and injuring each other. It would definitely not be a favorable outcome.
“Young Master, that elder’s strength is not simple. Unless it’s a life-or-death battle, I’m afraid we’re not quite confident about dealing with him, let alone with Logan’s assistance. If the two of them join forces, they might be even stronger.”
One of the bodyguards approached Cloud upon the Sea and quietly analyzed the situation, suggesting that Cloud upon the Sea should make a decision. It would be best not to fight if possible. It wouldn’t be too late to go out and find help before counterattacking.
Of course, the decision was up to Cloud upon the Sea. If he insisted on going his own way, the three bodyguards would definitely take action, even if it meant perishing together with the elder.’
Cloud upon the Sea was stunned. He thought he had everything under control, but the bodyguard’s words slapped him in the face and made him grit his teeth. How come Logan could find a Great Complete Throne to back him up?
He shouldn’t have hesitated earlier. If he hadn’t given Logan a chance to wait for reinforcements, Logan might already be dead in his hands. However, once again, his arrogance caused him to miss the best opportunity.
Seeing Cloud upon the Sea’s face turning blue and gray, Logan thought for a moment and understood the pros and cons. The three bodyguards must have advised Cloud upon the Sea not to take action.
This was not what Logan wanted to see. If Cloud upon the Sea and his men left, how could he deal with the Great Complete Throne? Only when both parties are exhausted could he find an opportunity. In the next moment, he came up with a countermeasure, which was to provoke Cloud upon the Sea’s anger.
“Cloud upon the Sea, I didn’t expect you to be a coward. Even without any reinforcements, I can win alone, while you brought three Throne bodyguards and now want to escape with your tail between your legs. I believe that once this matter spreads out today, you will become a laughingstock for everyone.”
As soon as these words of ridicule came out, Cloud upon the Sea exploded with anger. Logan dared to talk to him like that? It was only after weighing the pros and cons that he decided to leave. It wasn’t that he was really afraid of Logan. He originally intended to let Logan go today, but Logan was too arrogant and hateful.
“Three bodyguards, I have a bottle of Qi and Blood pills in my hand, left to me by my father for a life-saving purpose. It can temporarily increase a person’s strength three times without side effects like ordinary elixirs.”
Cloud upon the Sea took out a bottle of elixir from his arms and threw it to a bodyguard. It was clear what he meant: since the three bodyguards could not be defeated together, their strength would be increased three times, and then they would be able to face the opponent’s Great Complete Throne, who would certainly be no match for them.
Facing this precious elixir, all three were surprised. They knew of its existence but never thought the Young Master would bring it out before the situation became extremely dire.
One of them stepped forward and declared, “With this elixir, the three of us will definitely be able to kill the Great Complete Throne. Even if Logan joins forces, I’m afraid we won’t cause any trouble.”
They were already at the level of the Thrones, and after taking the elixir, they could naturally compete with an average Complete Throne. Moreover, there were three of them, so their strength and realm grew exponentially.
The pursuing Complete Throne was initially confused, but after their conversation, he now understood that those few people were not Logan’s helpers, but rather his deadly enemies.
