Dingxing stared blankly in the direction Zhao Hai had vanished, and it took him a long time to come to his senses. Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, completely furious at Zhao Hai.
Jin Ben and the others were also looking dejected; they realized they had lost this time, utterly defeated. They no longer had any chance to deal with Zhao Hai.
Seeing Dingxing swaying unsteadily, Jin Ben quickly supported him. He was no longer as angry at Zhao Hai; to be precise, he couldn’t afford to be angry at Zhao Hai anymore.
When you encounter an evenly matched opponent, you might get angry because you can’t defeat him or because he used a cunning conspiracy to defeat you. But when you discover that your opponent is not someone you can defeat at all, that he is on a completely different level, you can no longer feel anger.
If one word could describe Jin Ben’s current state of mind, it would be “resignation!” Jin Ben had resigned himself to his fate!
After a while, Dingxing finally caught his breath. He turned to Jin Ben and the others and sighed, “It’s over. We miscalculated. I never expected that Zhao Hai would be so strong. Our divine race has been destroyed by him.”
Xie Yu, with red eyes, exclaimed, “No! We must deal with him; we must deal with him! Dingxing, we can offer ourselves as sacrifices and ask the supreme deity to act against Zhao Hai.”
Dingxing forced a smile and said, “Forget it, Xie Yu. Don’t you know Zhao Hai by now? If the supreme deity could deal with Zhao Hai, he would have acted long ago. Would he just sit back and watch the divine race be wiped out one by one by Zhao Hai? Don’t forget, he still wants us to provide him with faith power. Besides, do you think Zhao Hai’s Darkness King is from where? It was taken from the supreme deity.”
Xie Yu, feeling frustrated, asked, “So what do we do now? Are we just going to wait?”
Dingxing shook his head, saying, “It’s too late for us to ask for help from the divine race now. However, there is a way to leave a last trace of our bloodline.”
Jin Ben and the others were stunned, looking at Dingxing in confusion. They didn’t understand what he meant by that. Now that it was too late to go back for help, how could they preserve the last trace of their bloodline for the divine race?
Dingxing looked at them and said, “Didn’t you listen carefully to what Zhao Hai said just now? Although his tone sounded like he had already exterminated our divine race, he still revealed a bit of information. He said he was dealing with the Gemini Clan and the Aquarius Tribe. How difficult do you think it is to deal with these two races? I don’t need to say much; these two races can at least delay Zhao Hai for a few days. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be entangled with us here.”
“But he also mentioned another thing that you didn’t pay attention to: he said that the otherworldly divine race is currently dealing with the Lion Clan.”
Upon hearing Dingxing say this, Jin Ben and the others suddenly reacted. They understood what Dingxing meant. After fighting against the otherworldly divine race for so many years, they naturally knew the level of the otherworldly divine race. It was impossible for them to capture Lion Continent so smoothly, especially since before they came, the people there were harboring a grudge. Now that the otherworldly divine race approached, they would become a punching bag for them. It was unrealistic to think they could deal with the Lion Clan in a short time.
As for Zhao Hai dealing with the Gemini Continent and Aquarius Continent, they didn’t need to think about rescuing them; it was too far, and they couldn’t do anything about Zhao Hai either. However, they had many methods to deal with the otherworldly divine race.
Jin Ben and the others looked at Dingxing, unsure of what he meant. Dingxing said firmly, “Now, dealing with the Winged Horse Tribe is meaningless. We need to go out immediately and make a good turn at the Otherworldly Divine Continent. As long as we attack there, the reinforcements from the otherworldly divine race might come back to help. Once they arrive, we’ll head back to Lion Continent immediately to defend it. Whether it’s Zhao Hai or the otherworldly divine race, it won’t be that easy to deal with our joint forces. As long as we hold off their attacks, Lion Continent can be preserved, and the last trace of our divine race’s bloodline can also be saved.”
