Chapter 837: Spring

The Scorpion King's entire right arm, shoulder and torso looked like it had been dunked in acid, which ironically would have only have made him stronger.

He cryptically pointed in the direction he had just jumped down from, "The dark...is alive."

That was the second time Hao Xuan had seen such a human-like emotion on his face, one that would be closest to primal 'fear' in humans.

Hao Xuan forced himself to look up, holding his breath and ready to jump aside at even the faintest sign of conflict.

But as expected, the first and only thing his eyes saw was the shroud of darkness that was inching closer to him by the second. He noticed that it was the light coming off of the barrier which was created by the Orcs that was keeping the dark at bay.

And while he was looking at it, the darkness suddenly flicked closer as if it was alive. Hao Xuan took a few steps towards the doorway with the Scorpion King following closely behind.
