Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up-Chapter 495 - 397: The Frustrated Protagonist!

The Golden Peacock was very dissatisfied.

But unfortunately.

Zhao Yi and the protagonist were not the kind of people who could listen to others’ opinions.

Especially when it came to dealing with captives.

After Zhao Yi rebuked the Golden Peacock, he put away the Nine Dragon Seal and turned to look at the protagonist.

"Since you want this thing, you handle it yourself, I won’t intervene."

The protagonist’s mouth twitched slightly.

He suspected Zhao Yi did it on purpose, and he had evidence.

Zhao Yi had dealt with him so many times, it’s impossible that he didn’t know his strength.

The protagonist was at the eleventh stage of the Returning Void Realm.

If in the Cultivation World, he is undoubtedly the number one expert.

But in the Magic World, it’s somewhat lacking.

The Magic World’s ceiling is not sealed by the Spirit Realm and Three Thousand Small Worlds, mages and magic beasts can train as they please.

Without understanding how to use the Law of Buddha Light, even a top-notch mage like Hertz is no weaker than the protagonist.

The magic power fluctuations of this Golden Peacock before his eyes are not below Hertz’s, plus its robust magical beast body, the protagonist is fundamentally no match for the Golden Peacock in a one-on-one fight.

Zhao Yi knew his strength, having just exchanged blows with the Golden Peacock, was very aware of the gap between the two, yet he still let him confront the Golden Peacock.

This made the protagonist suspicious.

Zhao Yi likely wanted to embarrass him on purpose!

The protagonist cared about his dignity, unwilling to concede.

Especially in front of Zhao Yi.

To make him say a humble word to Zhao Yi was almost more uncomfortable than death.

So he nodded, then turned to face the Golden Peacock.

The protagonist was not someone rash and unprepared.

As he observed the Golden Peacock, he asked the Treasure Tower Spirit in the Divine Sense Space.

"Do you have a way to tame beasts?"

"No."

The Treasure Tower Spirit answered straightforwardly.

She said in a strange tone, "I’m just an artifact spirit, how could I possibly know that?"

The protagonist paused, momentarily speechless.

This was a reflex reaction.

The protagonist had always been thinking about the Tower Spirit’s schemes and how she previously helped him solve various problems, unconsciously treating her as an equal.

Now hearing the Treasure Tower Spirit’s words, the protagonist suddenly realized.

Although the Treasure Tower Spirit had a grand origin, being from a top-notch Divine Artifact, after all, she’s just an artifact spirit, not omniscient and omnipotent.

Thinking of this, the protagonist didn’t feel disappointed but rather relieved.

It’s better for the Tower Spirit not to be omniscient and omnipotent.

If she had no weaknesses, that wouldn’t be good for the human cultivators.

"I was presumptuous."

The protagonist smiled apologetically and then looked up at the Golden Peacock, his tone calm: "As I said earlier, I am the Sect Leader of the Mahayana Buddhism of the Buddhist Sect, are you willing to serve as a Protector of my sect?"

Although the Golden Peacock had a hot temper, it wasn’t stupid.

Upon hearing the protagonist’s words, it did not rush to respond, instead, it sized up Zhao Yi with its small mung bean eyes.

Seeing that Zhao Yi indeed had no intention of intervening, the Golden Peacock was mentally invigorated.

Then it let out a shrill cry.

"I’ll take your mom!"

The Golden Peacock cursed angrily, raising its massive bird claws, sharp talons slashed through the air creating powerful gusts, whistling down towards the protagonist’s head!

"Die, you bastard!"

The Golden Peacock was also a tyrant on the Pegasus Grassland, used to flaunting its power, never having endured such humiliation.

Despite never having heard of the Buddhist Sect or Mahayana Buddhism, it knew what a Protector meant.

"Protector" sounded nice, but isn’t it just a magical pet?

Living well on Pegasus Grassland, with endless fresh beef and mutton every day, why should it become the magical pet of some random person?

And this person doesn’t even seem strong!

Thinking this, the Golden Peacock’s claws swiped down with even greater speed.

The violent gusts blew the protagonist’s clothes wildly, almost tearing him apart.

The protagonist’s expression remained unchanged, instinctively about to use the Law of Buddha Light.

At this moment, the Treasure Tower Secret Realm suddenly reminded: "Are you sure you want to use Buddha’s Light? The roots of the Nether Tree should have already penetrated into the Land of the End. Once you use Buddha’s Light, it will definitely discover you, and you won’t be able to stay in this world any longer!"

Hearing this, the protagonist’s actions came to a halt.

His movements stopped, but the speed of the Golden Peacock didn’t slow down at all.

While the protagonist hesitated, the dark golden bird claws had already reached his face.

The protagonist’s expression changed, raising both arms instinctively to block.

Bam!

Without suspense.

After the Golden Peacock’s claws struck, the protagonist trembled all over, instantly losing control and flying backward uncontrollably.

He retreated hundreds of steps before he could barely stabilize his body.

Both his arms were fractured and could no longer be raised.

His arms were torn by the fierce gusts, light golden blood kept flowing out.

Seeing this, the protagonist couldn’t help but frown.

"Why is this happening?"

The reason Zhao Yi didn’t intervene was he also wanted to let the Golden Peacock test the protagonist.

The last time Zhao Yi saw the protagonist take action was when Spirit Realm creatures first invaded the Cultivation World.

The protagonist at that time used the Law of Buddha Light, almost in the blink of an eye, annihilating all Otherworld monsters.

After half a year, Zhao Yi was curious about how far the protagonist had progressed.

The result puzzled Zhao Yi greatly.

What puzzled Zhao Yi was not that the protagonist was too strong and could resist the Golden Peacock with physical power alone.

What surprised him was that the protagonist was too weak!

The protagonist is a child of destiny.

Now it’s on the eve of the great calamity of the Nether Tree.

Logically, the protagonist’s strength should have been rapidly improving.

But this is it?

After half a year, the protagonist’s cultivation hadn’t improved at all.

Now he couldn’t even defeat a mere bird.

Although that Golden Peacock didn’t seem ordinary, it still wasn’t a reason for the protagonist’s failure.

The protagonist has destiny on his side.

Logically, he should be getting stronger against strong opponents.

Now his cultivation couldn’t even beat back a mere peacock.

This was a stark contrast to his lightning-fast progression, breaking ten stages in a day, in the Cultivation World!

"Could it be that the protagonist left the Cultivation World?"

Zhao Yi had a vague suspicion.

The protagonist is the child of destiny in the Cultivation World.

He left the Cultivation World and came to the Magic World.

The Magic World has its own child of destiny.

The will of the Cultivation World cannot influence the Magic World.

This could explain why the protagonist’s cultivation is slow.

Thinking about this, Zhao Yi said from the side: "Zhao Jing, why don’t you use Buddha’s Light?"

Zhao Yi, knowing the protagonist’s cultivation progress, started inquiring about his law progression.

Although most of Buddha’s Great Dao resides in the Nether Tree, the probability of the protagonist seizing Buddha’s Light from that monster is minimal.

But without seeing it with his own eyes, Zhao Yi was still uneasy.

When the protagonist heard Zhao Yi’s words, the corner of his mouth twitched.

If he could use Buddha’s Light, he would have used it long ago, does Zhao Yi need to gesticulate from the sidelines?

Raising his head to glance at the murderous Golden Peacock, the protagonist sensed his numb hands, a hint of coldness flickering in his eyes.

"I don’t want that beast anymore, you handle it yourself!"
