Armor Guardians

Looking back at Xia Qianxue's small hand that was gripping her arm, Xia Qianmeng, unusually, joked, "What? Didn't you say you were going to be my older sister? Why are you so timid now?"

"Who's a coward?"

Hearing Xia Qianmeng tease her about this, Xia Qianxue was immediately displeased. To prove that she wasn't cowardly and to demonstrate her determination to be the older sister, Xia Qianxue let go of Xia Qianmeng's arm and stood in front of her.

"The younger sister walks behind, and the older sister walks in front."

"Okay."

Xia Qianmeng smiled as she looked at Xia Qianxue walking ahead, and then couldn't help but think of the past. They were twins, so they were basically the same age, but in the past, she was the one who protected Xia Qianxue. Now, she could finally let Xia Qianxue protect her as well.

This feeling of being protected... is not bad.

Actually, this wasn't just for fun. Xia Qianmeng's intuition told her that the probability of an enemy attacking from behind was higher in this dark environment, which is why she was willing to retreat to the back.

All this talk about protection is just a way to convince Xia Qianxue to willingly walk ahead and deceive ourselves a little, to make us feel more at ease.

Seemingly aware of Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue's formidable strength, the three sets of ferocious beast armor or anything else were not used, allowing Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue to reach the end of the corridor unharmed and then ascend the stairs to the second floor.

Since they had never been here before, Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue were not bored even though no enemies appeared. They kept a close watch on enemy attacks while examining the treasures and decorations around them, broadening their horizons.

Just then, Ye Ying's voice rang out again in Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue's earpieces.

"Qianmeng and Qianxue, listen up. The Jin Group members have started going in now. See if you can get the Beast Armor before them and leave. I'll have someone meet you outside."

"So fast? Okay, we'll speed things up." "Mm."

After the communication ended, Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue exchanged a glance, and then, without wasting any more time, summoned their respective armors and quickly moved forward, so that they wouldn't be afraid even if they were ambushed once.

On the second and third floors, just as Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue reached the fourth floor, they finally saw one of the three beast armors: the Chaos Armor.

Xia Qianmeng was somewhat surprised to see the other party appear openly, but she did not let her guard down: "Why aren't you hiding anymore? By the way, where are your companions? Why didn't you call them out? Or do you think you can beat us all by yourself?"

"They went to deal with the people below."

The Chaos Armor seemed to have no intention of fighting Xia Qianmeng, so its tone was completely calm and without any provocation: "I know you are very powerful. If it were a one-on-one fight, there would probably be no one here who could match you, so I have no intention of fighting you."

"Then why have you reappeared now?"

Xia Qianmeng pulled Xia Qianxue back behind her, and then stepped forward to confront the Chaos Armor face to face.

"I want to work with you."

"cooperate?"

“That’s right, we know what you’re planning to do. We can all come and help you when the time comes, but you shouldn’t meddle in other people’s business now.”

As it spoke, the Chaos Armor looked behind Xia Qianmeng and Xia Qianxue, then gazed into the distance: "Since they all want to absorb my power in order to draw upon the power of the greedy, it's only natural that I should also absorb their power, right?"
