The Adventures of the Young Master 278 Courage

"This is nuts." Owner Bu could feel the danger looming above his head. He knew himself that with this kind of enemies in front of him, he wouldn't be able to survive. After all, he was now facing two Destinies and even one Ancient!

He was already struggling during his fight against Bluepeacock Destiny. What more for three stronger opponents? Because of this, he instinctively backed off several steps.

"Afraid?" Trueblack Ancient smirked and revealed a dense amount of killing intent,

"You will not escape from us again, Bastard Bu. Since you offer yourself in our front door, wouldn't it be a shame if we don't play as a host to receive your head?"

"You really think I'm that easy to push over? Do you think I am still the old Bu in the past?" Owner Bu was enraged. He summoned the World-Destroying Sword once again.

However, the sword didn't move an inch which confused Owner Bu. After a short while, the sword finally said, "Human, we can't defeat them. I just gauged their strength and calculated the possibility of us winning. And our chance on defeating them is a despairing 0.1%. You will die if you still keep this up."

Owner Bu was shocked to his core. Seeing this expression, the sword continued, "It is not shameful to run away now. You have already proven your power here. I still have enough strength for us to escape here safely. So let's call this a day and retreat."

The World-Destroying Sword was very concerned about Owner Bu right now. Though the latter was only an ant in its eyes, the former had acknowledged the perseverance and fighting spirit of the latter. In fact, it could see the determination in his eyes even he was facing this type of enemies.

It really wanted to urge Owner Bu to escape since they really couldn't win right now. After all, the sword's power is the same as the owner's power. It couldn't use its full potential due to the owner having insufficient cultivation and power.

Owner Bu looked pale, however, he shook his head and declined the sword's idea, "No, I cannot. I have ran once for my life already. I don't think I will be able to swallow cowardice again."

"Idiot!" The sword was annoyed and gave Owner Bu a smack by its hilt, "Escaping to preserve life isn't an act of cowardice. It's a strategic retreat. No one will mock you for running, I'm sure of it."

"But still, I don't want to run away." Owner Bu smiled wryly and shook his head, "I'm done running away. This time, I will fight to the death!"

"…" The sword was speechless because of its owner's stupidity. Why would he choose to die here over the chance of escaping? To preserve honor and dignity as a cultivator? When he was dead, all of this would be meaningless now. So what's the point?

It sighed and clicked its tongue, if it had one,

"Fine. Go and be heroic! If you want to die this way, then be it! I don't care anymore."

"Oh? Already done bidding good bye?" Trueblack Ancient smiled and asked, "So let's not waste time and offer your head on your own volition to make things easier."

"Trueblack Ancient, do you think it would be easy?" Owner Bu spoke coldly, "If you want my head, come and get it then!"

"Whoosh!" The World-Destroying Sword shot itself upwards and bombarded thousands of white-colored sword arcs!

"Activate!" The three didn't hesitate to use defensive measures for this. After all, they were fighting against a World Treasure capable of slaying enemies above its power!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Loud and terrifying explosions exploded all around the battlefield as it shook the land in a catastrophic manner. The sun lost its shine as the whole void turned dark. It was like death was coming their way.

"Release!" The sword knew that this wasn't enough to threaten these guys, thus, it used a power using its last reserve of energy.

"Clang!" Soon enough, a white shadow appeared. Particularly, it was a knight judging from its appearance. As it was only a white shadow, it didn't exclude something like a grand aura or whatsoever. The white knight shadow was now currently holding the sword.

However, Trueblack Ancient could sense this power and seriously said, "You two, stand back. You will die if you fight this thing. Let me handle the rest."

He could sense death in that white knight shadow. He could sense a danger that only beings on par with him could emanate.

"Amazing." Trueblack Ancient was truly amazed and found this a marvelous thing,

"You are capable of accumulating a power almost on par with an Ancient. You truly deserve to be one of the World Treasures everyone is seeking for. Is this your last ditch of effort?"

"Shut up, you bastard human." The sword spoke without any filter in its words. Its tone was filled with annoyance and arrogance, "Of course, I am the great World-Destroying Sword. Capable of destroying everything in my path. This King shall reign over the world, where you guys will be kneeling in front of me."

"Oh? What an arrogant sword. I like it." Trueblack Ancient chuckled and said, "How about you become my sword? If you want to dominate this world, you need a strong owner right? I am very qualified."

"You?" The sword sneered and mocked Trueblack Ancient, "With just a power of an Ancient, you think you can make me dominate this world? Not to mention Ancients, even Ethereals aren't worthy of becoming my owner."

"…" Trueblack Ancient was speechless. He didn't expect that this sword would mock him for the second time around! His expression turned dark and spoke with an ice-cold tone, "You, a mere sword, dared to mock me?"

"Boom!" After which, Trueblack Ancient revealed his full aura and it covered everything here in darkness. The darkness was suffocating enough even for the two Destinies, "Very well, let me see how capable a treasure of your level is."
