Chapter 679: The King's Guard

The man who stepped into the hall with a group of guards was King Yang Qiu, and he had himself tightly wrapped in a black cloak, showing only his face.

Wu Qi nearly burst out laughing when he saw who was coming. Perhaps frightened by the fact that someone was able to abduct and take him out of Yu Gu's Supreme Tower, King Yang Qiu was now surrounded by dozens of exceptionally strong warriors and Oracles.

Behind him stood thirty warriors in heavy armors of the same design: a dark full-body armor and a helmet shaped like a bell. The helmet had two long curved horns stretched out upward from its top, and a mask fashioned after the face of a ghost, which made it look extremely ferocious. The body armor was about half an inch thick, with a layer of dragon scales densely inlaid on its surface. Complex three-dimensional rune formations were engraved between the scales, giving the set of armor a very strong defensive strength.
