Chapter 629: Forced Quiet.

A few minutes before attention was returned to Melinda and Rowan, Lan had hefted his shield and stared at Hal with intensely focused eyes that caused Hal to chuckle.

Then Lan charged right at him with his shield at his side and his spear facing Hal.

The speed of his movement was Impressive and very much worthy of a Cosmic Pagoda realm expert but Hal was able to follow his movements enough to block the spear with his Sword Cosmic Armament.

The contact of the sword blade and spear stem gave off a metallic clang sound just before Lan then moved his shield to bash Hal who easily grabbed it and pushed it aside.

But Lan had never really planned to hit Hal with his shield and even when Hal pushed the shield aside, he merely lifted his leg to kick him in the chest and send him sliding a few steps back.

As Hal slid, he narrowed his eyes at the force behind that hit. A force that Lan had not shown so far.
