The man in blue trembled, too afraid to speak.
“Why……”
The man in blue let out a breath, his face ashen, but because of the immense pressure, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and walk back towards the stone platform.
With every step he took, his eyes kept falling on the two soldier statues, afraid that they would suddenly act.
However, the moment he stepped onto that stone platform—
Boom! Boom!
The two statues suddenly opened their eyes and slashed with their long swords!
Fuck!
The man in blue roared and frantically mustered all his spiritual power to defend himself.
However, its defense was as fragile as paper in the face of the statue’s attack, and it was instantly shattered into pieces!
“puff”
Blood spurted out, and the man in blue was knocked flying, falling heavily onto the ground. A terrifying wound opened up on his chest, and his aura was extremely weak.
“Why why did you only attack me?” he roared angrily and vengefully.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
Why does the statue only attack the man in blue and not David?
Tianci frowned, his gaze sweeping back and forth between David and the statue, before finally saying coldly, “It seems like the attack mechanism of these two statues is not based solely on gender or strength.”
“What’s that?” The white-robed woman frowned.
“Maybe… it’s about bloodline?” Tianci narrowed his eyes, looking at David. “This kid may have something special.”
David’s heart was pounding, but he remained calm on the surface, shrugging his shoulders and saying, “Maybe it’s just luck?”
“Hmph!” Tianci snorted coldly, clearly not believing it.
However now, the man in blue was seriously injured, and no one else dared to try. The only one who could approach the stone platform was David!
“Go and open the three dead chests!” Tianci ordered.
David glanced at him and said calmly, “Why should I listen to you?”
“You won’t listen?” Tianci’s eyes flashed with killing intent. “Then, I will kill you right now!”
Mo Qingyun nervously pulled Tianci’s sleeve and whispered, “Brother Tianci, don’t act impulsively.”
Mo Qingyun was afraid that Tianci would really attack David!
With Tianci and Elder Tong now together, David was definitely no match for them.
“I’ll try it” The white-robed woman glanced at Tianci disdainfully, then walked towards the stone platform!
The white-robed woman walked slowly, and every step she took caused ripples in the air.
