Chapter 1129: More Useless Than I Thought

“Do you think it’s like you? Stupid as a pig?”
“What do you mean?”
The man grabbed Zhao Xi as he ran. She was still very indignant.
She was not stupid. She just did not expect the guardian beast to follow them through the teleportation portal.
After all, the probability of that happening was very low. Moreover, the people from Jun Lin Hall had also arrived. They were the ones with more people, so why was the guardian beast still chasing after them? “Why didn’t it chase after the people from Jun Lin Hall?”
“Are you really stupid?”
Realizing that the guardian beast was about to catch up to them again, the man no longer grabbed Zhao Xi and instead dragged her away.
“Don’t you know that An Jiuyue is the Demon Heart? Why would the guardian beast chase after them?”
Zhao Xi was dumbfounded. She could not even realize that she was being dragged by the man.
That’s right! An Jiuyue was the Demon Heart. Why would the guardian beast chase after her?
The guardian beast would even automatically recognize the people around her as one of their own. Why would it attack them? She had miscalculated, but she had never expected the guardian beast to enter the teleportation portal with them.
“I can’t. I can’t run anymore.”
After a while, the man stopped running. It was especially tiring to drag Zhao Xi along in the Demon Heart Vortex.
He really could not run anymore. He also stopped because the guardian beast was about to catch up to them—running away was useless.
“Zhao Xi, if you don’t think of a solution, we’ll die here. I don’t want to fight anymore,”
‘You…”
Zhao Xi’s anger caught in her throat as she glared fiercely at the man.
She knew he meant that he wanted her to use the demonic energy she had painstakingly gathered. Only the Demon Heart’s demonic energy could restrain the guardian beast.
“No. I can’t use it. No…”
“Why not?! We can still think of a way if we run out of that demonic energy. But what can we do if we’re dead?” the man shouted at her.
Zhao Xi wanted to argue with him.
However, it was not the time to argue. The guardian beast pounced on them again.
“Ah!” She screamed and took out An Jiuyue’s demonic energy without hesitation to cover her body.
The guardian beast, which was initially about to attack, paused when it smelled the familiar aura. It leaned closer to Zhao Xi and sniffed her carefully. Although its eyes were still full of doubt, it retreated slowly.
After a long time, the guardian beast left. They heaved a sigh of relief.
The exhausted man saw that the danger had been eliminated and fell to the ground. He looked up at Zhao Xi and panted heavily.
“I really don’t know why I followed you here. Zhao Xi, you’re more useless than I thought!”
“Pft.” Zhao Xi sneered.
Useless? How was she useless? Could he reach the Demon Heart Vortex without her?
He should be able to find many good things even just being here. This trip would not be a waste to him. He was acting coy after getting a good deal!
“You make it sound like you’re very useful. If you were, you’d be able to defeat a guardian beast, right?” That was only a demonic beast, not a human.
“Can you defeat it?”
The man rolled his eyes. The guardian beast had been toying with them..
