Armipotent

Roman turned toward Lulu, shaking his head as much as he could. He did not want to live under someone else\'s sacrifice, not especially Lulu. However, the latter pretended not to notice it, meeting with Guild Master Gortham\'s gaze.

Guild Master Gortham looked at Roman on the ground, then toward the blade next to Roman\'s neck, and then toward Tang Shaoyang. He was calculating whether he could save the three of them, but he realized it was unrealistic to save three of them from Tang Shaoyang\'s hand. If he tried, he could save one of the three, but one of the three would also die for sure.

\'But if I take Roman with me, there\'s still a chance for Lulu and her brother to keep their lives.\' The old man let out a sigh. The bad feeling bothered him and added to Lulu\'s words. It made him hesitate even more to fight Tang Shaoyang. \'Can\'t I really kill him if I want to? He could even escape from three God Ranks. What can I do?\'

With a heavy heart, Gortham made the decision to take Roman with him and said in a heavy tone, "You can leave but without Roman."

Tang Shaoyang\'s smile returned as he put back his weapon and picked up Roman. He then whispered to Roman\'s ear, one last poison for the pitiful guy, "You are quite lucky, huh. Once more, Lulu saved your life. If not for her, you should be dead by now. I can tell the Guild Master does not want me to leave, and he is ready to sacrifice you and Lulu. However, Lulu is quite amazing in convincing the Guild Master to save your pathetic life. But again, can\'t really blame you for this. After all, you are just a shrimp that gets swept into a predator\'s battle. If only Guild Master Gortham did not betray my trust, this would never happen to you. What a pitiful little guy."

"I am going to bring Roman with me, and you can pick him up in ten minutes. You can find him in five hundred meters in the direction I go," Tang Shaoyang waved his hand the moment he noticed Guild Master Gortham was about to cut him. "Don\'t worry. I am different from you, and I have made a deal with Princess Lulu that I will not kill Roman. It\'s just I don\'t trust you anymore, Guild Master Gortham."

Guild Master Gortham looked toward Lulu, looking for confirmation. Lulu confirmed with a nod about the deal that Roman would not be killed.

"You can order Eril to follow us if you really don\'t believe me. If it\'s just Eril, then I don\'t mind." Tang Shaoyang grinned.

Following Tang Shaoyang would put her in danger for sure. Guild Master Gortham should be aware of that, but before he could say anything, Eril spoke first. "I will follow them, Guild Master." She met with Guild Master\'s eyes and smiled, "You should know that it should be easy for me to escape if I want to, right?"

Guild Master Gortham was uneasy about letting Tang Shaoyang leave with Roman, but it was the same even if Eril followed Tang Shaoyang. If Tang Shaoyang could beat four Primordial Ranks, then Eril was like walking in the park for Tang Shaoyang. But again, he believed that Eril should be able to escape if she wanted to. He knew something about Eril\'s skill that could ensure that.

"You can follow him, but immediately send me a message if he is up to something bad." He allowed Eril to trail Tang Shaoyang. "Make sure to maintain a safe distance from him."

After the brief talk between the two, Tang Shaoyang left with Roman and Young Master Mistovel while Lulu followed him voluntarily.

Tang Shaoyang met Guild Master Gortham\'s eyes and smiled, "I have a feeling that we will meet again in the future. Let\'s have a good fight next time."

Guild Master Gortham had a complicated expression as he watched Tang Shaoyang\'s back recede into the distance. He planned to build a good relationship with Tang Shaoyang, who had potential, but it bit him in the back. Of course, it was his fault because Tang Shaoyang showed something he had never seen before.

Tang Shaoyang was just an Ancient Rank, but he had the power to overcome the Myth Rank, which was one rank above him. If it was a close fight, he would still understand it, but the fact that Tang Shaoyang overwhelmed the Myth Rank made him curious. He could not hold his curiosity anymore and used the council to pry into Tang Shaoyang\'s window status. He wanted to know everything about Tang Shaoyang. From the class, talent, and bloodline, he wanted to know everything. He could share the information with the God Ranks in the Adventurer Alliance, and he might get a good impression from them. That was the plan; he did not intend to fight Tang Shaoyang. He just wanted the information.

However, his little trick could not fool Tang Shaoyang, and he did not expect Tang Shaoyang would be so daring to oppose the whole city just to hide the window status. He understood that, and he would do the same if he was in Tang Shaoyang\'s shoes. It was just his greed that overlooked that scenario because he thought an Ancient Rank would not dare to fight the whole city just for that.

"Should I really kill him before he could pose a threat to the guild?" Guild Master Gortham muttered by himself.
