Chapter 2860: Hiding in the Shadows, Ashamed to Show Himself?

Facing Carson Flores’s reminder, Snow Zane smiled faintly.

"Don’t worry, with me here, he won’t harm you in the slightest."

Carson Flores immediately eased up and said with a smile, "Thank you, Senior."

Snow Zane smiled slightly, "No need to be so polite, this is what you deserve."

The hood concealed the Black Robed Man’s face, but everyone could feel that he was staring intently at Snow Zane, and the murderous intent on him kept rising.

"I ought to test and see if you can withstand me!"

The Black Robed Man’s aura surged, pointing a finger at the Green Ancient Bell. It emitted a halo that rapidly expanded towards them, followed by a bluish mist that seemed ethereal but exuded an extreme sense of danger.

Domain Power!

Carson Flores immediately understood that the Black Robed Man was frantically unleashing Domain Power, trying to suppress Snow Zane with it. Once the domain is suppressed, divine skills are hard to cast, and their power greatly reduced.

He’s competing with Snow Zane from the root, and if Snow Zane’s strength is insufficient, if the domain is suppressed, then the Time Divine Ability won’t be so miraculous, leaving one helpless.

Snow Zane furrowed her brow; the Time Divine Ability is unfathomably mysterious, the most enigmatic existence among divine skills. However mysterious, it doesn’t bypass the principles of divine skills.

If the domain is suppressed, the Time Divine Ability becomes difficult to wield and very passive.

Snow Zane crossed her hands, and the aura suddenly transformed, with invisible ripple spreading from their location, like ripples in water, radiating outward.

Snow Zane didn’t recklessly expand her domain, just protected the area around the group, safeguarding them.

The blue halo desperately tried to invade the invisible waves, yet although the waves were invisible, they possessed mystical abilities. Wave after wave of halos crashed into the waves as if disappearing into the Star River, leaving no trace.

Simultaneously, the Token in Kaelithra Nixon’s hand shone increasingly bright.

The interlacing of Domain Power lasted several breaths. Although the halo had approached very close to the group, it was blocked by the waves and couldn’t advance any further.

The Black Robed Man got somewhat irritated, once again wielding his black rod, smashing down with destructive force.

The invisible waves around Snow Zane suddenly surged, like a flood rushing directly at the black rod.

Perhaps the collision of Domain Power had consumed most of Snow Zane’s energy, and this time, the black rod didn’t disappear outright but smashed down heavily.

A miraculous thing happened; this mighty swing crashed into the waves, and as the waves continued to break down, the overwhelming energy on the black rod also continuously collapsed.

This swing, despite its disproportionate strength, couldn’t unleash its true power, like sinking into a muddy swamp, possessing ferocious power but unable to exhibit it.

Seeing this, the Black Robed Man waved his hand to recall the black rod, glanced at Carson Flores, and turned to leave.

He had already probed that although the other side hadn’t attacked, their defense was impenetrable. If he wanted to best the opponent, he could only rely on a war of attrition.

However, he couldn’t afford to waste time; after all, this wasn’t his home field. Once his identity got exposed, endless trouble and danger awaited, and the most crucial point was if caught, how could he complete his mission?

Just as he was about to move, ripples suddenly appeared above the group, and like a canvas torn open, Halvion Ward stepped out from the middle.

Seeing Halvion Ward arrive, Kaelithra Nixon’s eyes immediately lit up with joy, shouting, "Senior Brother, this Black Robed Man is a Quasi-Saint, he wants to kill us!"

Halvion Ward, seeing Kaelithra Nixon and Carson Flores unharmed, relaxed slightly, but his previously gentle eyes turned fierce.

The Black Robed Man, seeing reinforcements arriving, didn’t say a word and turned to leave!

Halvion Ward coldly said, "Is your hidden self so shameful that you can’t show it? Why not stay and chat?"

The Black Robed Man ignored Halvion Ward, turned to run, and Halvion Ward, transformed into Golden Light, disappeared instantly, leaving his words hanging in the air.

"I’ll be right back, I’ll find you later."

The Black Robed Man and Halvion Ward disappeared in an instant, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally survived.

Even though Jorren Jaramillo and Grayan Darlington were Peak Great Land Prime Immortals, they had never encountered such a dangerous situation. After all, Quasi-Saints are prominent figures, who would act recklessly against them?

Even when needing artifact refining help, it’s always with courtesy, never directly kidnapping, threatening to help with artifact refining, and then killing to silence them!

Snow Zane withdrew her hand, looked at it, and her face showed joy.

Seeing this, Carson Flores happily asked, "Senior, are you recovering well?"

Snow Zane nodded, "Better than I anticipated. Give me some more time, besides recovering peak physical condition, my control over time might reach a new level."

Carson Flores laughed, "That’s excellent news, congratulations Senior."

Snow Zane turned to Carson Flores, smiled gently, "I must thank you after all; without you, I would have died long ago. Even if not dead, I would be a wrinkly old woman instead of enjoying such good times now."

Listening to their conversation, Jorren Jaramillo and Grayan Darlington exchanged glances, seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.

This stunning Quasi-Saint actually resides in Carson Flores’s magical treasure, accompanying him, and she claims Carson Flores is the key to her survival?

Carson Flores is indeed unfathomable!

This kid being valued by True Sage Grand Void is no coincidence.

Originally thought to be a talented newcomer appreciated by True Sage Grand Void; now it seems far from simple.

Their lives this time entirely owed to Carson Flores; without this beautiful Quasi-Saint, even if they managed to escape, a grim fate awaited.

"Thanks to Fellow Carson Flores for saving my life!"

"Skyfire Sect Deputy Sect Master Grayan Darlington, I will fully support you in whatever you instruct us in the future."

Snow Zane waved her hand, "Don’t thank me, thank Carson Flores. It’s his doing to save my life, now merely repaying the favor."

Carson Flores smiled, "You two seniors don’t need to be so polite, you’re my mentors, not outsiders, we’re in this together. Just don’t blame me for not mentioning this earlier, as Senior Zane was recovering from injuries. A single day’s delay aided her recovery somewhat..."

Jorren Jaramillo and Drystan Darlington nodded, expressing their understanding, grateful to be alive, who would complain?

Jorren Jaramillo, recalling the conversation with the Black Robed Man, furrowed his brow, "I deceived him into thinking I knew his identity, he seemed very nervous, and wanted to kill us to silence. What identity makes him so anxious?"
