Their hiding place was exposed.
The Two-star Giant King threw a punch at Green Pearl.
The destructive force of the domineering punch was enough to shatter Green Pearl’s body into pieces.
And he was too close to Green Pearl, striking too suddenly.
There was no time for Green Pearl to react!
By the time Green Pearl saw the punch, she didn’t even have a chance to dodge with Instantaneous Movement!
Her pupils shrank drastically, feeling death’s shroud cover her, her whole body went ice cold.
Just as the fist neared, suddenly, her collar was tugged, and the next moment, she flew backward uncontrollably.
It was Jiang Fan, being flung away, realized the danger, and hurriedly used the Void Fishing Rod, instinctively reeling Green Pearl away with him.
Bang!
The punch hit empty air!
The space where Green Pearl had been standing collapsed with a crash.
If it had hit her, Green Pearl would have turned into a cloud of blood mist by now.
Surviving a near-death experience, Green Pearl’s heart thumped wildly, just about to express her gratitude.
Suddenly.
The missed punch bizarrely swelled several times its size.
Green Pearl was still struck by the edge of the fist.
Puh!
In an instant, Green Pearl’s delicate body was flung sideways, spraying blood, crashing heavily toward the ground in the direction of the Void Fishing Rod.
"Green Pearl!" Jiang Fan hurried to catch her, but as soon as he touched her.
The terrifying power inside Green Pearl erupted, shattering his arm into a mist of blood on the spot!
"Don’t touch her!" True Word Venerable’s face changed drastically.
Quickly pushed Jiang Fan aside, catching Green Pearl with her own hands.
Bang bang bang—
A series of muffled rumbles spread from True Word Venerable’s arms into her body.
Crimson blood seeped from the corner of her mouth at an alarming rate.
A wisp of pain spread across her pretty face.
"Such strong power!" She looked toward the faintly discernible figure in the Yin Qi, her expression extremely grave.
Jiang Fan, on the other hand, looked at Green Pearl with concern.
Seeing she was still breathing, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This injury was much lighter than when attacked by Ari Shura King.
Hurriedly, he took out some Revitalizing Pills, swallowing a handful himself, feeding another to Green Pearl.
Only then did he look at the attacker.
Noticing the Original Star on their forehead, he couldn’t help but be shocked:
"Two-star Giant King? How is that possible?"
The giant king before him was only the size of an average Human Clan member!
How could there be such a giant king?
Typically, a giant king stood at least twenty feet tall.
Even the Giant Emperor’s daughter, Princess Zi Jiang, was eight feet high.
How could this giant king be similar in size to a Human Clan member?
But that wasn’t what shocked Jiang Fan the most.
He was astonished by how the giant king came to Central Earth!
It was known that the Connecting Sky Black Pillar of Taicang State had always been in Black Cloud Village.
According to the Heavenly Realm’s laws, Ancient Giants couldn’t enter the village until the Great Hunt Day—how did this Two-star Giant King descend?
He recalled the previous worries expressed at the Great Wine Sacrifice.
It was mentioned that there was an aura of Ancient Giants on Taicang State.
Then Jiang Fan didn’t pay much mind, thinking it was remnants from a thousand years ago, such as the Cold Mountain Giant King, with little power left, not a concern.
Yet, this Two-star Giant King, at its peak strength and imposing, clearly just descended from the Heavenly Realm!
Could it have descended through the Connecting Sky Black Pillar in another state and traveled all the way to Taicang State?
While Jiang Fan was bewildered, Green Pearl also struggled to lift her head.
