Mighty Lord

Chapter 1190: Chapter 468 Cowhide Candy

Zhou Tian had maintained a clear advantage in strength from the start, the reason he had not subdued the Human Emperor’s forces was simply because the Human Emperor had the aid of other powers. If those forces weren’t interfering with Zhou Tian’s actions, at this moment it wouldn’t be Zhou Tian thinking about escaping, but rather the Human Emperor considering how to flee.

Given the situation at that time, if Zhou Tian had managed to escape and then launched an attack on those forces, there was no doubt that, with his strength, he would have severely damaged them.

For Monster Forces this might be manageable, but for NPC forces, if their strength were severely damaged, they wouldn’t be able to recover quickly. So, given the circumstances at the time, even if Zhou Tian had later returned to deal with the Human Emperor after inflicting heavy losses on them, those forces would not have had the ability to intervene and help the Human Emperor again.

It was precisely because he was acutely aware of his predicament that the Human Emperor dared not let Zhou Tian leave. Despite clearly being less powerful than Zhou Tian, he was still desperately trying to prevent Zhou Tian’s escape.

In reality, given the Human Emperor’s strength, it was not easy for Zhou Tian to leave when the former was trying to stop him with all his might. Essentially, every time Zhou Tian tried to flee, he would be blocked after only a short distance. Under those conditions, even Zhou Tian found it impossible to escape without being able to kill the Human Emperor.

So, although Zhou Tian had killed the Human Emperor several times due to his desire to leave, because of the immortal function of the Human Emperor’s body, he simply had no chance to escape under the latter’s relentless pursuit. From this perspective, Zhou Tian’s actions could be considered a complete failure.

However, Zhou Tian did not feel discouraged by the failure of his actions. It was as if he had anticipated that events would unfold in this way; seeing his actions repeatedly thwarted by the Human Emperor, Zhou Tian’s expression remained remarkably calm. From his reaction, it was clear that the failure did not affect him. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Perhaps it could be said that Zhou Tian’s actions had not failed at all! Just when the Human Emperor thought he had thwarted Zhou Tian’s strategy, successfully keeping Zhou Tian in front of him, Zhou Tian decisively took action at that moment.

"Die!"

Just as the Human Emperor had let out a sigh of relief, along with Zhou Tian’s shout of rage, an enormous explosion suddenly echoed through mid-air.

"Boom!"

With a loud noise, even with his strength, the Human Emperor had no power to resist. Barely having heard the explosion, he was ripped to shreds by it. Though he recovered quickly thanks to his immortal body, during the time it took to regenerate, Zhou Tian had already made his escape to some unknown location.

"Damn it!"

Thinking back to the sudden explosion of the cloned Beastman beside him, the Human Emperor’s face darkened. Clearly, Zhou Tian had planned all of this. When he had quietly withdrawn the cloned Beastmen earlier, he had given one of them something. Then, when he pretended to leave, forcing the Human Emperor to chase him, he used the weapon the cloned Beastman had to strike him hard.

Because he had placed too much faith in the immortal function of the Human Emperor’s body, the latter had not been sufficiently on guard against Zhou Tian’s tactics. In the end, although his immortal body did save his life as expected, the Human Emperor did not look the least bit pleased with the outcome, feeling nothing but frustration.

Just as he had feared, with the situation having turned out this way, it was certainly not good news for him. If Zhou Tian joined the outside battle situation, with his strength he could immediately turn the tide of the entire battlefield. Although the Human Emperor could do the same, compared to Zhou Tian, his forces simply could not compete.

It was precisely because he knew he could not match Zhou Tian that the Human Emperor had so fiercely blocked his way when Zhou Tian was preparing to retreat. Under these circumstances, seeing Zhou Tian about to escape again, the Human Emperor would never willingly let him leave.

Unfortunately, due to a moment of carelessness, Zhou Tian ultimately escaped from his clutches. Now, with Zhou Tian’s strength entering the outside battle situation, the Human Emperor could imagine the state of the battlefield due to Zhou Tian’s intervention.

If he could, the Human Emperor would certainly not have let Zhou Tian leave. But since Zhou Tian had already managed to shake him off, even unwillingly, the Human Emperor could only accept the result. Although he was somewhat unable to accept that Zhou Tian had thrown him off and joined the battle, upon realizing that events had turned out this way, he still reacted immediately.
