Getting Stronger By Fighting-Chapter 641 - 639: Reunion_1

But now, Xiang Tian had completely transformed. Even people in the fifth war zone were well aware of his metamorphosis. And all of this was entirely because of Wang Zhan. At this moment, Xiang Tian showed no signs of fear on his face, clearly ready to face death.

"Enough, stop with the nonsense. Do as I told you, or I'll get angry."

After glancing at Luo Xue beside him, Xiang Tian clenched his fist and rapidly advanced towards the beast.

He knew very well that he had to use his trump card to compete with the beast before him. Only then could he create an opportunity for Luo Xue to escape.

However, just as Xiang Tian engaged the beast in combat, Luo Xue, who was standing to the side, showed no intention of leaving. Xiang Tian quickly turned his head and yelled at him, "What are you standing there for? Do you plan to watch me sacrifice myself in vain? If so, you'll be letting me down, and even more so, letting Brother Wang down. Leave now!"

"But…"

Luo Xue wanted to say more, but after seeing Xiang Tian's expression, he gritted his teeth and finally headed off into the distance. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

As Luo Xue left, Xiang Tian's eyes gradually became fierce. After all, he no longer needed to hold back. As long as he could defeat the beast before him, it would be a net gain. Considering his severe injuries, killing one was definitely a gain.

The beast, on the other hand, was extremely ferocious. Despite Xiang Tian using his trump card, he still couldn't defeat it.

"BOOM!"

With a loud noise, Xiang Tian's figure was sent flying backward. As the beast rushed towards him, Xiang Tian slowly closed his eyes. No one could save him now. They were far from the fifth war zone, and Wang Zhan wasn't by his side. Still, his eyes showed no fear. This day was bound to come sooner or later, wasn't it?

"Brother Wang, I'm coming to join you."

A faint smile touched Xiang Tian's lips, but the next second, a powerful force suddenly blocked his path. The beast was sent flying backward, while Xiang Tian quickly opened his eyes. Recognizing the person standing before him, he was stunned for a moment before he rushed into that person's arms, saying, "Brother Wang, I thought you were..."

"How could I be killed so easily? Let alone by a demonic beast. It's not that simple."

Indeed, the person standing before Xiang Tian was Wang Zhan. It was a pure coincidence. Wang Zhan had been flying swiftly in one direction and hadn't expected to encounter a man and a beast in combat, only realizing it was an old acquaintance as he drew near.

"That's great! I knew you'd be all right!"

Xiang Tian excitedly clenched his fists.

Wang Zhan scanned his surroundings, then asked, "Weren't you with Luo Xue?"

At the mention of Luo Xue, Xiang Tian suddenly snapped back to reality. He quickly pointed in the direction Luo Xue had gone and urged, "Quick! When I first encountered the beast, I told Luo Xue to leave temporarily. He must be quite far away by now. You two need to catch up quickly. After all, it's extremely dangerous on the Star War Battlefield. I'm worried something might happen to him."

As he spoke, Wang Zhan immediately grabbed Xiang Tian's arm, and they swiftly flew off into the distance.

「Several minutes later, two streaks of light landed in front of Luo Xue.」

Luo Xue instinctively stepped back, his eyes filled with caution.

However, when he clearly saw the two people in front of him, his expression changed once again.

Luo Xue looked as if he couldn't believe his own eyes. He quickly ran to Wang Zhan's side, hugged him tightly, and said, "Brother Wang, am I dreaming? How can you be here?"

Wang Zhan shrugged, then smiled and said, "It's a long story, but I've fully recovered now, and my strength is now stronger than before by a great deal. Even if we encounter Luo Tianhong, we still stand a chance. So, you don't need to worry about anything. Why are you two still here?"

They weren't far from the ruins; otherwise, Wang Zhan wouldn't have encountered them so quickly. This made Wang Zhan a little puzzled.

He had initially assumed Xiang Tian and Luo Xue would return to the fifth war zone right away. After all, that was their home, and without Wang Zhan by their side, the Star War Battlefield was extremely dangerous, with peril lurking at every turn.

After Xiang Tian and Luo Xue exchanged a glance, Xiang Tian finally said, "When we emerged from the ruins, Luo Tianhong abandoned us and left us to find our own way out. As you know, I was severely injured at that time and couldn't travel far. Luo Xue had to stay close and accompany me while I recovered."

Wang Zhan nodded, then said, "I knew that guy wasn't reliable, but it's good enough that he let you two leave."

Given Xiang Tian's and Luo Xue's strength, even escaping the ruins was a difficult feat. And indeed, if they hadn't encountered Wang Zhan, they both still would have died here. So, ultimately, one needed to improve their cultivation. After all, no one could rely on others forever, could they?

"By the way, do you know where Luo Tianhong is?" Wang Zhan looked at the two again and asked.

He needed to find Luo Tianhong as soon as possible. After all, the old man had once said that this was the best time to eliminate Luo Tianhong. If he couldn't do it now, Luo Tianhong would become a huge problem in the future, and dealing with him wouldn't be easy. So, whether for himself or for everyone in the fifth war zone and on the Star War Battlefield, he had to deal with Luo Tianhong as soon as possible. The Spirit Devouring Beast was truly too terrifying.

However, Xiang Tian replied uncomfortably, "How would we dare to inquire about his whereabouts? We were too busy trying to avoid him."

Back then, the two of them had only wanted to improve their cultivation as much as possible, solely so they could avenge Wang Zhan. So why would they have cared where Luo Tianhong had gone?

Luo Xue suddenly looked at Wang Zhan, then said, "Brother Wang, I suddenly thought of something. I remember when Luo Tianhong separated from us, he went in the opposite direction to ours."

"That means Luo Tianhong should still be in that direction. If you want to find him quickly, we should head that way. What do you think?"

There wasn't a trace of fear on Xiang Tian's or Luo Xue's faces. Obviously, neither of them feared Luo Tianhong. After all, Wang Zhan was back by their side now; they felt that as long as Wang Zhan was with them, he could hold up the sky for them.

Wang Zhan just patted their shoulders and then said with a smile, "All right, Xiang Tian is still injured, and your strength isn't that great. The most urgent thing is for you two to return to the fifth war zone. That way, you'll also reduce some of the pressure on me, and I can deal with Luo Tianhong without distractions."

"But rest assured, once I've dealt with Luo Tianhong, I'll immediately return to the fifth war zone to find you. Then we can continue to roam the entire Star War Battlefield. Wouldn't that be great?"

However, Xiang Tian's and Luo Xue's expressions quickly turned grim. Truthfully, both knew their strength was insufficient, but at this moment, they didn't want to return to the fifth war zone.

Xiang Tian cupped his fists and said, "Brother Wang, I know I might hold you back, but I hope you can take me with you. I also want to improve my strength. Once I return to the fifth war zone, I'll just go back to living the same old life, and I won't gain anything."

Luo Xue, standing by his side, lowered his head and spoke quietly, "Brother Wang, I feel the same way he does. Believe me, I'll definitely do my best to improve my strength. I absolutely won't cause you any trouble. Just keep me by your side and give me some time."

Seeing the two of them, Wang Zhan shook his head helplessly. Truthfully, their ages weren't that different, only a year or two apart. Compared to them, Wang Zhan was merely a peer, just a year or two older. Yet, he now felt as if he were taking care of his younger brother and sister.

Especially Luo Xue; at this moment, his eyes were gradually growing moist, and he began to choke up, clearly on the verge of tears.

Wang Zhan sighed in resignation and finally said, "But I still need to lay down three conditions with you."

"I know, Brother Wang, you don't have to say more. No matter where we go or what situation we encounter, we'll definitely listen to you first. Just like in the ruins, when you told us to leave, we didn't act stubbornly out of a sense of loyalty, did we?"

Clearly, Xiang Tian had come to understand Wang Zhan quite well.

Luo Xue covered his mouth and chuckled.

Wang Zhan shook his head helplessly and finally said, "I'm really at a loss with you two. But there aren't many benefits to staying by my side. You must be prepared for hardship. If you're not careful, we might suddenly die, and we wouldn't even know where."

"But didn't Brother Wang survive a calamity? And I see your strength has improved immensely. Isn't that like snatching life from the jaws of death?"

Xiang Tian drew near, a slight smile on his lips. "But I am quite curious, what exactly happened that allowed you to come back from the dead?"

After all, Xiang Tian and Luo Xue had personally witnessed Luo Tianhong defeat Wang Zhan.

When this matter was brought up, Wang Zhan squinted his eyes slightly, then slowly said, "It's a long story. Let me start with the Heavenly Dragon Armor…"
