Armipotent

Tang Shaoyang scanned the person to his left first. Because the person seemed to be standing on the opposite side of the big group. Despite the absence of hostility, the single person who held the force alone was amazing. The person was wearing a straw hat with black clothes attached to it, covering the face. Wearing all black clothes, it looked like equipment instead of normal clothes. Of course, he did not forget to use [Detection] on the person.

[Name: ??? | Faction: ??? | Rank: Legend]

He saw something that he had not seen in other Legend Ranks, not even in Moonsong and Marshal Alton. The energy in this person was much wilder than theirs, overflowing like a storm. The flow of the energy from this person was ferocious, even more terrifying than Lulu’s brother who was a Demi-God Rank. That made him curious about the identity of this person as he believed this person was stronger than the rank shown on Detection.

On the opposite side, was a man, leading the two hundred knights behind him. He estimated there were two hundred knights behind the man. However, his attention was attracted to the leading man only because of the energy he saw in the man. He did not bother to find out where they came from because the man had stronger energy than the person to his left.

[Name: ??? | Faction: ??? | Rank: Demi-God]

He had to admit that these two were the strongest individual he had met if he counted out all the God Ranks. This made him put up a guard more after knowing how strong they were. He signaled Rosalie and Lu An to get ready for a fight.

“Grandpa!” Darlene dashed out of the group, rushing toward the man who led the two hundred knights. The man turned toward the voice and opened his arm for his granddaughter. It was an unexpected outcome that the man was Darlene’s grandfather.

What threw Tang Shaoyang off was the man’s appearance. The man looked like in his mid-thirties, the late thirties at most, yet he was a grandfather of a twenty-year-old princess. It was really hard to adapt to this, but he knew it was possible with the high attributes to look young. The man might be in his seventies or maybe eighties, but he was also God Rank, the reason why he looked so young.

“You have gotten your dear granddaughter back, why don’t you leave, old man?” The person spoke, and it was a female voice. The voice was coarse and toneless, it was unknown to find out what happened between the two based on that single sentence. But one thing is for sure, the woman did not want the Xevia Kingdom to be here for an unknown reason.

“Do you think so? But I still have something with this young man here,” Darlene’s grandfather pointed at Tang Shaoyang.

The woman let out a chuckle as if she found it funny, “Are you sure, old man? Can you take the responsibility for meddling in my faction’s affairs?”I think you should take a look at

When the faction was brought up, Darlene’s grandfather’s expression changed for a moment, but it returned to normal quickly. It was just a brief, but Tang Shaoyang noticed. It seemed the woman came from a faction that even Darlene’s grandfather was wary of. He quickly realized that he really needed to be careful with the woman.

Darlene’s grandfather shrugged, “It has nothing to do with your faction. It’s not like your faction can control what I do, and it’s not like I am opposing your faction either. It’s just a normal business.” He then met with Tang Shaoyang’s eyes, “What do you think of joining my faction, young lad? I can protect you from the Mistovel Family, and my God Alliance will protect you from the other alliances that are after your life. I can guarantee that.”

That was an unexpected offer from Darlene’s grandfather for sure, a tempting one. But that was the same as he became the Xevia Kingdom’s vassal. After what he had gone through this far, he was not going to be someone else’s vassal. The answer was obvious, a resounding no.

“I am not interested in becoming someone else’s subordinate, so you can forget about it,” Tang Shaoyang’s answer was straightforward, immediately rejecting the offer without a second thought. He had not forgotten the reason he built his Empire, because he wanted to hold his fate in his hand anymore, not live under the mercy of someone above him.

“Tch, it’s a pity, but my offer is always on the table,” Darlene’s grandfather still looked at Tang Shaoyang after the rejection, as if he had another business, “Now let’s talk about the real thing. How are you going to answer me after kidnapping my granddaughter?” His voice went deeper as he unleashed the terrifying aura to suppress Tang Shaoyang and his group.

It was just the old man who chose the wrong opponent if he wanted to intimidate Tang Shaoyang with his Aura. Tang Shaoyang had so many aura skills with him. The aura was easily dispelled by Tang Shaoyang’s Dragon Aura. That was enough to fight off the Demi-God Rank’s aura, not needing to use his Slayer Aura.

Tang Shaoyang licked his lips, “Your granddaughter talked about the God Shards earlier, and I wonder if I can steal your God Shards for myself. That will help me a lot when I try to transcend to the God Rank, no?” He was tempted by this. If Darlene’s grandfather wanted a fight, then he would fight. He did not know how to steal the God Shard, but he could figure it out after he defeated Darlene’s grandfather.

“That’s a tempting idea. I can help you with that,” The unknown woman suddenly joined the conversation, “I don’t want to meddle with your business old man, but now you are trying to disrupt my job. I have no choice but to step in.”

Based on the woman’s words, she had a business with Tang Shaoyang, but Darlene’s grandfather seemed to try to stop that by taking Tang Shaoyang with him. From the look of it, Darlene’s grandfather tried to use the kidnapping to get Tang Shaoyang with him, that was why the woman stepped in.

Tang Shaoyang was clear now that the woman came for him, but the Xevia Kingdom came for Darlene. However, her grandfather now had another motive aside from ensuring her granddaughter’s safety.𝗇𝗈𝒱𝐄𝓁𝑛𝗲xt.𝔠𝑂𝔪
