Mighty Lord

Chapter 1191: Chapter 468 Cowhide Candy_2

Engaging in a war of attrition with Zhou Tian, the Human Emperor knew from the beginning that he could not possibly be the opponent. Therefore, it was out of the question for him to engage in such a contest. Now, based on the situation at the time and after some thought, the Human Emperor made the decision to seek out Zhou Tian again and stall him.

Compared to a slowly unfolding defeat through a war of attrition with Zhou Tian, the Human Emperor would rather reset the battle situation to its original state. Although it was possible that Zhou Tian had already struck his forces a blow in the time it took to seek him out, the Emperor found the prospect of accepting some losses due to his own error more acceptable than the result of defeat.

Given the sensing ability between Human Emperors, locating Zhou Tian was not a difficult task. Thus, after making his decision, he immediately set out towards Zhou Tian’s position. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

With the Emperor’s speed, it did not take long to find Zhou Tian. In that time, Zhou Tian had successfully killed nearly a million enemy soldiers. His intervention had turned the tide of the entire battle situation, and his Beastmen had gained the upper hand in the area he attacked.

Originally, having successfully reversed the situation in that area, Zhou Tian was preparing to move on to the next. Unfortunately, due to the Human Emperor’s decision, before he could take action, he sensed the approach of his enemy.

"What a sticky situation, unable to shake him off!"

Shaking his head in resignation, although understanding the Human Emperor’s actions, Zhou Tian still felt frustrated that just as he had managed to lose his foe, the Emperor had so easily caught up with him. However, despite his frustration, knowing the Emperor’s strength, Zhou Tian did not hesitate to act.

Leaving was definitely necessary; otherwise, if he were to engage in combat there, Zhou Tian did not want to lose the hard-won battle results so soon after his efforts.

Running away was also not in Zhou Tian’s thoughts, simply because, based on the Emperor’s current sensing ability, whether Zhou Tian ascended to the heavens or burrowed into the earth, the Emperor would be able to lock onto his position. Therefore, no matter how Zhou Tian fled, the Human Emperor could always find him by following his aura. Under these circumstances, Zhou Tian could not put any distance between them unless the Human Emperor changed his decision. Instead of engaging in futile efforts, Zhou Tian was better off preparing to face the challenge head on.

Of course, Zhou Tian didn’t waste even the slightest opportunity that could be utilized. As the Human Emperor was about to catch up, Zhou Tian thought for a moment and then flew towards a certain area.

"Scoundrel!"

Zhou Tian’s deliberate move towards a specific location was certainly not good news for the Human Emperor. If Zhou Tian did so, it meant he had another plot up his sleeve. Indeed, the Emperor felt that Zhou Tian’s destination was one of his supporting lairs, and Zhou Tian’s current action was highly disadvantageous.

If they were to battle in that area, it would certainly cause considerable damage. Even without deliberately targeting it, after some time fighting with Zhou Tian, the entire force might face annihilation as a result of their battle.

As it happened, even though the Emperor was aware of Zhou Tian’s intentions, he still found himself unable to refuse Zhou Tian’s arrangement, despite knowing full well the impact of a battle in that territory. Seeing Zhou Tian head towards the area, he had no choice but to follow suit.

Since the Emperor had already made the decision to tolerate some degree of loss, Zhou Tian’s actions at the moment were not going to render him helpless so easily.

Yes, a battle in that region would definitely cause great damage to that force. But the Emperor understood that if he did not pursue Zhou Tian, the latter’s direct attack on that area would only result in greater destruction. So, even knowing what the impact of their battle would be after he caught up, the Human Emperor still had no choice but to follow Zhou Tian’s arrangement.

Rather than letting Zhou Tian destroy that force out of hand, the Emperor was willing to sacrifice it to achieve his aim of entangling Zhou Tian. Although this decision was extremely unfair to that force, given the current progression of events, sacrificing it became an acceptable outcome for the Emperor. freёwebnovel.com

As a result, guided by such thoughts and knowing his actions might have adverse effects on him, the Emperor, without a second thought, rushed to that territory and directly faced Zhou Tian.
