This gaze instantly sent him plummeting to the depths of despair.
"Are you still going to obstruct me?" Ao Yuan's voice was exceptionally calm, as if he had not expected this.
"Hmph!"
A clear voice exploded from all directions.
Though there were no excessive words, it fully conveyed their intentions.
He!
Would absolutely not give up now.
"Since that's the case, I'd like to see how many more times you can persist!" Ao Yuan roared.
As he spoke, Ao Yuan's figure turned into a streak of light and shot towards Micius.
Immediately, giant hands extended from the void, constantly obstructing him. Every time Ao Yuan's attack was about to hit Micius, it was blocked.
In response, Ao Yuan's body began to emit increasingly brilliant beams of light, blasting outwards.
The giant hand also resisted with all its might, creating a stalemate where neither side would yield.
The two were locked in a fierce battle!
However, this was agony for Micius!
Every collision between Ao Yuan and the giant hand caused his heart to involuntarily tremble.
This was entirely gambling with his life!
If the giant hand could no longer hold on, then only one path awaited him.
That was death!
As the battle intensified,
Micius discovered that the giant hand, which had initially appeared extremely solid, was becoming increasingly ethereal.
At first glance, it looked as if it were about to shatter into a million pieces.
This sent a tremor through him.
If any mistake were to occur, his life would be forfeit!
Bang!
"Dragon brat, are you sure you want to fight me?"
After a while longer, a shocked voice suddenly echoed from the vibrating void.
"No one can save him today! I, Ao Yuan, say this." Ao Yuan stopped, his voice steady, appearing as if he had exerted no effort.
His words sent a jolt of fear through Micius.
Before, in his despair, he could face death calmly, but now that a glimmer of hope had appeared,
He truly did not want to perish!
A dignified main god!
Second only to the highest authority, if he were to fall, all would be lost.
Boom!
Just then, a world-shattering explosion occurred.
"Dragon brat! If you insist on killing Micius,"
"Then I will have no choice but to drag others down with Micius to accompany him in death!"
"Accompany him in death?" Ao Yuan paused, somewhat bewildered by Odin's meaning.
At that moment, Ao Yuan suddenly heard faint whispers drifting into his ears.
"Dragon God, Master!"
"Dragon God, Master, we've arrived!!"
"Daidal, Daidal!"
...
As these voices reached him, Ao Yuan's heart tightened.
He immediately turned his head and saw a group of tiny black dots on the ground not far away, rushing towards them.
This group was none other than the demonic beasts of the Demon Court and the humans of Blue Star!
Upon seeing them, Ao Yuan's expression instantly darkened.
At this point, he understood Odin's intentions.
This was clearly an attempt to use them to threaten him!
"What do you say!"
Seeing that Ao Yuan had stopped attacking, the voice from all directions gained a hint of smugness.
Clearly, he believed that he had Micius cornered.
Of course, this was also evident.
Ao Yuan's strength was indeed formidable, and if this continued,
He would undoubtedly be no match for Ao Yuan.
But during this time, he could abandon protecting Micius.
And instead, attack others.
With his own abilities, even in front of Ao Yuan, he was confident in killing others!
As for Micius shattering, well, Micius was already dead.
Why would he care if Micius shattered?
Meanwhile, Micius's heart clenched tightly.
His life, and the lives of those below,
Were now in Ao Yuan's hands.
If Ao Yuan refused, then he would have no path but death!
"Agree, agree, quickly, quickly agree!" Micius kept shouting in his heart, venting his tightly strung nerves.
At one point, Micius even considered shouting out loud to alleviate his stress.
"Well! What have you considered?"
The voice from all directions once again reached Ao Yuan's ears.
"If you still haven't made up your mind, I can help you make a decision!"
It was strange, although this voice was loud, Daixiaomei and the others below seemed unable to hear it.
They continued to rush towards them rapidly.
Ao Yuan could see that in this short time, Daixiaomei and her group had gotten even closer.
"There isn't much time left for you to consider."
At this moment, the giant hand's cold voice once again exploded in Ao Yuan's ear.
Ao Yuan suddenly raised his head, his gaze chillingly fixed on the giant hand.
"Have you considered?"
The ethereal voice sounded: "Since you've considered, I'll take Micius and leave."
He didn't ask Ao Yuan for his thoughts.
Instead, he seemed to have divined Ao Yuan's every intention.
"How are you so sure I will let Micius go?"
"That's right!"
The calm voice sounded again: "Seeing that you haven't been in this world for long."
"These people must be important to you."
Ao Yuan nodded slightly in agreement.
Seeing this, Micius's heart eased.
It seemed he had a chance to survive today.
But the next second, Ao Yuan's voice suddenly turned cold and sharp: "But who gave you the confidence."
"To force me to choose between them?"
"Do you think you are qualified?"
These simple words seemed to bring time to a standstill.
Micius's expression froze, his recently relieved heart shot back into his throat, as if it were about to leap out.
Rumble!
The giant hand in the void suddenly moved violently, clearly infuriated by this.
"Dragon brat, you said this!"
As the voice sounded, the giant hand swept through the air towards Daixiaomei and the others below.
Judging by its momentum, it intended to utterly annihilate the group below!
"Hmph!"
Ao Yuan frowned and let out a cold snort, and a surge of spiritual energy erupted.
Rumble!
A ball of green light suddenly erupted from the ground, and numerous vines surged outwards, instantly shielding Daixiaomei and her companions.
After an initial moment of shock, Daixiaomei and her group, upon realizing it was Ao Yuan's doing,
All calmed down, remaining in place, neither making noise nor causing trouble.
In their eyes, no matter what Ao Yuan did, he would never harm them.
They believed in Ao Yuan unconditionally!
Having done this, Ao Yuan's figure flashed and he shot directly towards Micius!
This time, the giant hand seemed to know that even if it tried to intervene, it would ultimately fail to protect Micius, and so it no longer guarded him.
Seeing this, Micius's face turned deathly pale!
A desperate desire to survive made him want to dodge wildly.
However, with his current severely wounded body, how could he easily evade?
After dodging once, he was struck squarely by Ao Yuan the second time!
"Damn it..."
Micius froze, his face contorted in fear.
