Zu Wan's new form was giving them a chill. They couldn't move nor think of what they should do at this certain moment.
Their whole bodies were covered with intense fear. Zu Wan's dark onyx eyes felt like an endless hollow. They could only see danger and… death!
Zu Wan was not yet leaving his spot but they could already feel the massive pressure coming from him. The dark aura of the demon god scattered around the mountain peak. It was like they were being suffocated.
There was a hint of malice and an intent to kill. If they would not clear their minds right now then they might be devoured without even putting up a fight.
No one among them dared to move. They were assessing the situation first. If one of them would charge in without a plan then his or her life would be put in great danger.
They were torn in between fighting Zu Wan altogether and trying their luck or they should just flee and escape to save their lives.
By looking at Zu Wan's expression alone, they could tell that he would not show them any mercy! He was ready to kill someone right now.
Who would have thought that they would be put in this desperate situation? The demon god was able to turn the table around.
They were full of themselves, thinking they could eliminate the demon god easily. This monster fought their ancestors- guardian lord, head shaman, and other strongest warriors. But here they were, only four of them facing the evil beast known as demon god!
Could they survive this? No one knew for now. It would depend on Zu Wan's next move.
Meanwhile, Zu Wan didn't leave his spot yet since he was busy talking to someone in his subconscious.
"Master! You are alive! Welcome back!"
Zu Wan's lips curled up into a smirk hearing the voice of his core power.
"Black fire! Or shall I call you… FaMo?"
FaMo felt some warmth when the demon god called him by his name.
"I should welcome you back as well! My daughter has been waiting for your return!"
FaMo was also awakened as he recovered his power. He became emotional at the mention of Zhen-Zhen. This only meant that Zhen-Zhen and the demon god had already reunited!
"Thank you, Master! Thank you for staying alive and for coming back to Zhen-Zhen."
"I should be the one thanking you for protecting my daughter on my behalf. You did a good job, FaMo," Zu Wan praised and commended his black fire dragon.
"Now, we have something important to do." Zu Wan glanced at the guardian warriors one after another. FaMo had understood him.
Zu Wan finally moved his attention to each guardian warrior. Riyu and others got ready as well, anticipating Zu Wan's move.
"FaMo! Secure Titania and Ella first! Protect them while I am fighting these so-called righteous guardian warriors." There was a hint of sarcasm in his voice when he mentioned their group.
"You said you want to protect people from me. But you, yourselves, are using innocent people just to defeat me. Hypocrite! You are no different from me as you are willing to hurt innocent people just to get your goal!"
Riyu and others couldn't refute that. They might be at fault for involving Titania and Ella but they had no choice. This was the only way to lure him.
"You will never understand us!" Calec snarled at him. He hated the way the demon god was insulting them right now.
"Yes, I will never understand you. Because you are crazier than me! You will regret coming here. I am already living in peace but here you are trying to be a hero again." Zu Wan's warning look was intimidating them.
"Attack! All at once!" Riyu finally gave them her command.
The other guardian warriors attacked Zu Wan together using their different powers.
Too bad for them, the paralyzing effect of poisonous vines didn't affect Zu Wan's body at all. He could still move and dodge their attacks!
"Roar of the dragon!"
"Lightning strike!"
"Tornado whirlpool!"
Each of them began attacking Zu Wan from different directions. But he was faster than them. Before they knew it, Zu Wan was able to get near them in just a blink of an eye.
Zu Wan attacked Calec first. He grabbed his hands and set his body on fire.
"Arrghhh!" Calec screamed in pain as he felt his body getting burned. It was so hot. His hands were covered by dark flames.
"Calec!!"
His comrades got worried about him. They immediately attacked Zu Wan to separate him from Calec.
"Damn! At this rate, this is gonna be a one-sided fight against the demon god!" Shiba cursed under his breath.
Riyu quickly responded to Calec, extinguishing the dark flames.
They hadn't recovered yet from that surprise attack when Zu Wan targeted Shino. He was a fire-element wielder so Zu Wan decided not to use his fire.
He grabbed him by his neck, pinning him down on the ground.
"You are the one who fought my daughter before. You tried to kill her. Now, allow me to punish you."
A sound of bone cracking was heard along with the shrieking scream of Shino. Zu Wan just broke his arms, including his two legs. He was about to snap his neck to kill him but Shiba interfered, saving his comrade.
Zu Wan's focus was transferred to Shiba.
"Riyu! Prepare the dimension-hopping spell. You have to leave here and escape together with Calec and Shino. I will buy time. I will keep him occupied!"
Shiba already knew that they couldn't win against the demon god even if they combined their powers. Their hostages had been secured. They couldn't use them to threaten Zu Wan.
The best option for them right now was to flee!
Shiba was a wind element wielder. He was faster than the three so he was the best decoy to divert Zu Wan's attention while his comrades were preparing to escape.
"You should have gone back to your world! Blame yourselves for this stupidity!" Zu Wan said before attacking Shiba with his giant black fireball.
