Yang Jian, who was nearby, was extremely anxious. He wanted to rush forward to help, but he was apprehensive of Darryl's Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. Those people in the pagoda had ganged up on him in the previous battle. Even though he was not injured, he had used up much of his internal energy.
Yang Jian was also highly conceited. Many people had criticized him when he had attacked Darryl so suddenly the last time. If he were to attack the man again, everyone would probably mock him throughout the Nine Mainland again.
"Argh…"
His enemy was right in front of him, yet he could not kill her. Zhang Jue's fury continued to rise by the moment. He roared angrily toward the skies before he glared at Darryl. You had better not end up in my hands. Otherwise, I'll make sure you'd wish you had never been born."
He chuckled.
Darryl did not panic even when he felt Zhang Jue's resentment. Instead, he chuckled lightly and said, "Take care of yourself first."
Bang!
Right at that moment, Megan took the chance to go behind Zhang Jue and ambushed him. Zhang Jue's attention had been on Darryl. He could not react in time. He let out a muffled grunt and flew more than 10 meters backward before he landed on the ground; he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Swoosh!
Zhang Jue's face was extremely pale. He glared at Megan and was so livid that he almost passed out. He thought that he could kill the woman to repay for what she did to him previously. However, he did not expect that not only did he not manage to kill her, but she managed to injure him in front of everyone as well.
That was utter humiliation!
Zhang Jue was an egotistical person. At that moment, he had been injured by Megan. He was embarrassed; that was why he was angry.
"Senior."
Megan hovered in mid-air. She was incredibly calm when she faced Zhang Jue's loathing glares. She said gently, "I'm sorry for tricking you in Lu Bu's ancient tomb. It was my fault, and I should have sought your forgiveness. But you are currently helping the North Moana Army to invade my homeland. Forgive me, but I can't just sit back and do nothing."
"You—"
Zhang Jue's expression darkened, but he was speechless.
Swoosh!
Yang Jian quickly moved in front of Zhang Jue. He said worryingly, "Military adviser, are you alright?"
