Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up

Chapter 680 - 583: The Same Goes for You

The protagonist has always been dissatisfied with the way the Forbidden Lord speaks, but he knows he never lies. He can only obediently accept the advice and watch the drama unfold from the side.

He reveals a smile of pride, feeling triumphant that just three summoned beasts have pushed Zhao Yi to the brink of desperation.

If he could summon twenty beasts at once, Zhao Yi might perish here without him needing to lift a finger.

The Forbidden Lord, now in mental harmony with the protagonist, quickly spoke up to remind him of these thoughts.

"The summoned beasts are indeed formidable, but they also have their own wills. Summoning too many might lead to backlash or resistance.

In the end, they might even devour us instead."

To persuade the protagonist, the Forbidden Lord provided a series of bloody and miserable examples.

The protagonist felt all his hairs stand on end, finally declaring he would never do such a thing, causing the Forbidden Lord to stop speaking.

Meanwhile, on the battlefield.

Zhao Yi and the Nine Dragon Jade Seal communicated within the Spiritual World. The Jade Seal was puzzled as to why Zhao Yi hadn’t summoned the Human Emperor Bell.

"Stupid boy, do you think I don’t want to? But his arrival needs more time. Be patient and persevere."

At this moment, Zhao Yi envied the protagonist’s Space Law, as possessing such a Law would allow him to easily deal with these beasts.

Just as Zhao Yi was about to exit the Spiritual World and continue fighting the beasts, the sudden appearance of two little boys startled him.

He wasn’t sure how the two boys managed to reach here. One of them introduced themselves as the beasts involved in the ongoing battle.

"We come from the Exotic Beast World and truly do not wish to fight you. Yet, that fellow used the Prohibition Law and some strange talismans to bind us.

We have no choice but to obey him. We hope you can save us."

As for how they managed to appear in Zhao Yi’s Spiritual World, the other boy provided the answer: their frequencies have synchronized.

"This is the first time I’ve heard of such a thing, but you can be assured, I will do my best to rescue you."

As Zhao Yi’s words fell, the two boys vanished, and Zhao Yi returned to the Cosmos.

At this moment, the Human Emperor Bell had arrived, swaying above the crowd and emitting a sound both distant and peaceful, instantly suppressing two of the beasts.

Zhao Yi seized the opportunity to suddenly summon a Magic Scroll, encircling the two beasts. Zhao Yi knew well that to break the contract, he must first seal them and then find a solution.

Otherwise, they would be retracted by the Gate of Space as before. The protagonist, witnessing Zhao Yi’s actions, promptly summoned the Gate of Space to devour the two beasts, but Zhao Yi’s swift movements resulted in one beast being retracted and the other sealed by Zhao Yi, angering the protagonist to no end, prompting him to launch an attack.

This was precisely what Zhao Yi hoped for. A cold gleam flashed in Zhao Yi’s hand, slicing towards the protagonist’s throat, causing him to quickly retreat and summon a Forbidden Weapon.

Engaging Zhao Yi in physical combat, their speeds accelerated, transforming into rays of light within the Cosmos, colliding repeatedly, while the remaining two beasts broke free from the planet.

They directed their attacks at Zhao Yi and the Human Emperor Bell. Though the Bell wasn’t a living entity, it had long developed its own consciousness. Upon seeing the beasts approach, it gently swung, opening the Gate of Space, into which the beasts, unprepared and unsuspecting, plunged.

Another beast and the Nine Dragon Jade Seal clashed head-on, their collisions echoing continuously throughout the Cosmos.

"I never thought you had such a treasure. If I’m not mistaken, this should be the Human Emperor Bell."

"I didn’t expect you to have such a formidable weapon and such magical Laws."

Zhao Yi and the protagonist praised each other, yet their tactics grew more ruthless, with their power steadily increasing.

After half an hour of struggle, they remained evenly matched, neither able to overpower the other. The protagonist’s growth somewhat provoked Zhao Yi.

Meanwhile, Zhao Yi’s growth also surprised the protagonist, though it left him feeling somewhat let down.

What disappointed him more was that the Prohibition Law seemed to have little effect on Zhao Yi.

Resentment flickered in his heart, as the Forbidden Lord warned him in the Spiritual World.

"Zhao Yi’s power is too great, and with the Time and Life Laws, attempting to curb his strength won’t be easy. My suggestion is to retreat."

"You previously swore you could definitely kill him, yet now you’re speaking such discouraging words."

The protagonist grumbled against the Forbidden Lord.

At this moment, he suddenly sensed some anomalies in his body.

Once he realized it, Zhao Yi had already bound him with a stream of water, the power within absorbing his Spiritual Power.

The protagonist was shocked. They had been battling without ever seeing Zhao Yi secretly laying out anything.

"Is it surprising to you? Are you shocked?"

"You forgot I possess the Time Law, which allows the me from an hour ago to fight you while the current me sets these traps."

"You wish to kill me, but you should know if you do, Zuo Xiaoluo will never return."

The protagonist remained fearless.

He knew mentioning Zuo Xiaoluo would cause hesitation in his opponent.

Indeed, as Zuo Xiaoluo’s name appeared, a pang stung Zhao Yi’s heart.

His eyes flashed with murderous intent, his powerful killing aura stirred a whirlwind causing the protagonist’s face to warp, and the piercing pain made him quite uncomfortable.

Yet, he continued to provoke Zhao Yi.

"I’m giving you a choice. Do you want your hundred thousand troops and the Underworld, or do you want Zuo Xiaoluo?"

"You’re as despicable and shameless as ever."

Zhao Yi was extremely furious. The choice placed him in a dilemma.

If he chose the hundred thousand troops, Zhao Yi wasn’t sure what the protagonist might do, knowing well that he was full of jealousy.

Yet, choosing Zuo Xiaoluo and neglecting the hundred thousand brothers was something he couldn’t bring himself to do.

He was the king of the New World, the hundred thousand troops were his subjects, his brothers; he couldn’t abandon them.

Zhao Yi fell into silence.

The protagonist looked smug.

"Are you angry now? Are you feeling very sad?"

"I can offer you another choice. Slap yourself, then I’ll return your hundred thousand troops to you, and promise not to harm Zuo Xiaoluo."

The protagonist gloated arrogantly.

"One day you’re going to end up in my hands, and I’ll tear you apart."

The Nine Dragon Jade Seal hovered continuously in the air, enraged, yet dared not act recklessly.

Zhao Yi stood immobilized, but his eyes gradually brightened, focusing on the protagonist’s weapon.

"Everyone holds something dear. For me, it’s Zuo Xiaoluo. What is it for you?"
