LEGENDARY GUARDIAN 248 Chapter 248: Kill Them...

Is the difference between the mid-grade and the low grade in the gold realm this vast?

No matter how much they tried to perceive Derik's cultivation level, they couldn't see a thing, it was like trying to see the bottom of the ocean from atop a boat. They just couldn't see a thing and this made them feel anxious, at this point, they began having second thoughts and regretting making a move against Derik and Cyrus, they are only safe right now because Cyrus who has always been the calm one is yet to make his move. Should Cyrus join hands with Derik now, they are not sure they will be able to defeat the two guardian spirit hosts.

"Truly the life and death guardian spirits are the most powerful amongst all the other guardian spirits… But that does not make them invincible!!!" Ahika was the first to make a move.

He let out a resounding roar and his body lit up, completely shrouded in flames! Instantly his body size began to increase as well, doubling, tripling, it got to a stage where even a ten-meter tall giant would need to look up to gaze at his demonic fiery face. Utilizing his power of nature, Francis sealed off the location, wrapping buildings his vines to prevent the scorching heat exuding from Ahika's body to harm the civilians.

At this time, the giant molten lizard, wielding a flaming trident was literarily looking down on the unfazed figure shrouded in black aura. He raised his hand wielding the trident high and immediately hacked down at Derik.

"AND WHO SAID YOU CAN ACT WITHOUT MY PERMISSION!!!"

Suddenly a majestic voice echoed and from nowhere a ma.s.sive golden broadsword appeared and shot towards the lizardmen chief.

Roar!!!

Retreating by a step, Ahika twisted his ma.s.sive body and with his golden trident, he parried the golden broadsword, retreating by a few more steps. While this happened, Francis literarily uprooted buildings from the ground and moved them out of the way in a bid to prevent the death of innocent civilians.

Woooos.h.!.+

A figure wearing a golden sleeveless robe and his face covered with a white hood appeared beside Derik. His face was well hidden with the hood, with only a pair of blazing golden eyes and some of his long golden hair visible. At this point, Cyrus was more like a deity and not a human, his body was literarily golden in color, while his body exuded a very strong life force. His cold gaze remained fixed on Ahika as he began muttering what seemed to be like an incantation, releasing almost invisible golden waves to a.s.sault the fire guardian spirit host. The power of his word path has increased tremendously and with just a single word he could effortlessly destroy mountains. The ability was strange and almost impossible to defend against. When faced with this, Ahika could only endure the golden waves while taking large strides towards Cyrus with his weapon held high above his head, if he is able to put an end to Cyrus' life, his suffering will end as well.

While Derik stood there and watched, he felt annoyed that he could not join in. He could feel Francis eyes locked on to him, preventing him from moving rashly, also should the nature mage abandon his current activities and stop protecting the civilians with his power, even though Cyrus and Ahika are intentionally reducing their ability to minimize damage, without Francis effort a lot of people will still die. For this reason, reframed from acting against Ahika. He could only stand there and stare at Francis coldly, not caring to bother about the battle going on, he was pretty sure Cyrus will defeat this lizardman.

"Kill him…" Derik said casually after giving the matter some thought, not directing it to anyone in particular.

"That's the plan… I intend to kill them all! We will settle this grudge with blood" Cyrus replied coldly while staring at the approaching Ahika and Francis.

Hearing the short conversation between Derik and Cyrus, Ahika and Francis felt a bit scared for the first time. They were banking on the fact that their lives as top tier masters will matter to Derik and Cyrus since the invasion is near, they never expected these two would have the intention of killing them. They too are hosts of nature and fire guardian spirits, they were aware of the situation and the war about to happen. Right now the world requires more top tier experts than ever! In their minds, if they are unable to subdue Derik and Cyrus, they will end up using this as a bargaining chip, that way Derik and Cyrus would not dare kill them.

Its only natural for them to feel fl.u.s.tered by Derik's words and Cyrus' reply. They didn't expect these two to be so decisive and hasty in making such an important decision. No! Francis refused to believe Derik and Cyrus would be so bold as to make a move.

"You intend to take our lives? Do you think you can defeat us?" Francis asked while glaring at them coldly.

"Yes…" Derik answered indifferently, still gazing at them as if they are not even worth his attention.

"b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! And when you succeed in killing us, who will fight against the invaders…" Francis's voice was a little shaky now. His body was trembling, but no one knew what he was feeling. 

Fear or anger…

"You will still fight for me as an undead and maybe after we kill off every single one of you responsible for this nonsense, Cyrus and I will break into the peak grade of the gold realm after using your souls and life force as nutrition for our realms" Derik remained emotionless and answered.

"You see… we will rather have an undead partner than have a living partner who doesn't understand what loyalty means… even in an important hour like this, you all have the time to play politics and squabble for more authority in the empire? What power is greater than the one you have now? Personal strength will always overshadow other forms of strength, that's why you all will always be inferior to Derik and I" Cyrus wore a disgusted expression on his face as he spoke.

"Hehehe… weaklings like yourself dare try to suppress us? Hehehe… Don't blame us for being ruthless" Derik chuckled wickedly.

"Yep…" Cyrus nodded in agreement.

Hearing them speak, Francis and Ahika could only feel a chilled, just from the facial expressions of Derik and Cyrus, they were sure those two were planning to end them here and now. They couldn't help but feel anxious.
