Armor Hero: The Return of the Underworld

"Go and put him down, let him rest for a while."

The Realm King said to Bing'er.

Bing'er hurriedly went to untie Xi Zhao's handcuffs.

"After resting for a bit, I'll go teach that piece of trash Shadow King a lesson and show him the consequences of disobeying me!"

King Kai turned around and spoke to the two people behind him, then left...

"are you OK?"

Bing'er and Xi Zhao stood on the beach, looking at the sea, and said...

"It's nothing, I'm used to it."

Xi Zhao clasped his hands in a fist salute and said.

Have you ever thought about why we are different from ordinary people?

"We don't have anything to do for King Kai?"

Bing'er became more and more excited as she spoke, and turned to look at Xi Zhao.

“He raised us; he has a debt of gratitude to us for raising us.”

Xi Zhao, still with his fists clasped and eyes slightly narrowed, spoke.

“I think we have done enough to repay him.”

"He wants to rule the world, but I have no such ambition."

"I just want to be a normal person walking in the sunlight."

Bing'er's excitement returned to its initial calm.

"It's not that simple."

Xi Zhao patted Bing'er on the shoulder and said something before leaving. He still had a mission given to him by the Realm King to complete.

"But I will try my best."

This is the second half of Xi Zhao's thought...

At this moment, Mo Fan was looking down, pondering how to improve the strength of the Earth Tiger Armor.

Bang! Bang!

Suddenly, the cave shook, and loud footsteps echoed outside.

"How did you..."

As the footsteps drew closer, Mo Fan finally recognized the person: the Snow Mastiff Armor!

Mo Fan was about to ask Xi Zhao what was going on when the Snow Mastiff Armor suddenly leaped up in front of him and grabbed him by the neck, rendering Mo Fan speechless.

But Mo Fan did not resist. His intuition told him that Xi Zhao would not hurt him.

"No, he won't hurt me."

Mo Fan spoke to the person beside him using his mental energy; the sound emitted by this mental energy was inaudible to others.

"I'll be waiting for you in the grove at nine o'clock tonight."

Sure enough, the snow mastiff armor grabbed Mo Fan and brought him in front of it, whispering something to him.

After saying that, the Snow Mastiff Armor threw Mo Fan to the ground.

"I'm just teaching you a lesson today! If there's a next time, don't blame the King of the Realms for being ruthless!"

Xi Zhao said to Mo Fan, and then turned into a wisp of white smoke and disappeared from the spot.

"Are you OK?"

After the Snow Mastiff Armor left, Little Yuzu appeared in front of Mo Fan, still holding the Soul-Severing Twin Blades. Clearly, Mo Fan's words were directed at Kula.

"It's okay, he didn't touch me."

Mo Fan stood up, brushed the dirt off his clothes, and said.

"What's wrong with this mad dog today?"

Kula said coldly.

"It's nothing, we're going to have a big helper again."

Mo Fan said with a slight smile.

It seems the time is right to subdue Xi Zhao.

It was nine o'clock in the evening, in the grove where Mo Fan had followed Xi Zhao last time...

Xi Zhao was still waiting for Mo Fan at this place, leaning against the tree with his hands clasped together.

Suddenly the ground shook, and Mo Fan appeared.

"You finally came."

Upon seeing Mo Fan appear, Xi Zhao stood up.

"Is there a problem?"

Mo Fan smiled and asked Xi Zhao.

"I don't even know your name yet."

Xi Zhao asked Mo Fan.

"Me? You can call me Bakuru, or you can call me Mofan."

Mo Fan emerged from Ying Bawang's body with a forceful effort.

“The name Bakuru sounds so alien, so I’ll just call you Mofan.”

Xi Zhao smiled.

"Okay."

Mo Fan smiled as well.

"Thank you, Mo Fan."

Xi Zhao suddenly spoke to Mo Fan with a serious expression.

Mo Fan knew that Xi Zhao was referring to the fact that he had helped save Kun Zhong, so he gladly accepted Xi Zhao's thanks without refusing.

"If it's just this, you shouldn't have called me out, right?"

Mo Fan looked at Xi Zhao and asked.

"King Kai is starting to get a little impatient with you."

Xi Zhao said to Mo Fan.

"I'm afraid it's not just about me, or rather, it's the same for you?"

Mo Fan smiled, and this time the smile was genuine.

Mo Fan is now certain that Xi Zhao has definitely been subjected to electroconvulsive therapy upon returning this time, and the Realm King's attitude towards him has become increasingly cruel, which has made Xi Zhao determined to escape from the Realm King.

King Kai has finally become so arrogant that he's lost his mind.

"What do you mean?"

Xi Zhao asked in surprise, "Could this Mo Fan possibly read his mind?"

"If you want to escape King Kai, we are friends, and I can help you."

Mo Fan said to Xi Zhao.

"But King Kai is, after all, the one who raised me."

Xi Zhao shook his head and said.

"Did King Kai take you in? He only took you back because you were of use to him. Think about what kind of life you had at the Sunshine Orphanage, and then think about what kind of life you had with King Kai. It was a life worse than that of pigs and dogs."

Mo Fan was speechless for a moment. Why was Xi Zhao so stubborn? Wait, a snow mastiff? A dog?

Mo Fan understood; Xi Zhao possessed a certain dog-like loyalty.

"You even know about the Sunshine Orphanage?"

Xi Zhao was shocked once again.

The Sunshine Orphanage disappeared after a fire, and few people know about it.

“I know what’s not the point. The point is how the King of the Realm has treated you. Besides, you’ve done a lot for him over the years, and you’ve already repaid him for everything you owed him.”

Mo Fan offered his advice once again.

"This……"

Xi Zhao hesitated.

"If it is true gold, it will not be afraid of the fire. As long as you are true to your conscience and have a clear conscience, that's enough. As for the temporary storms or difficulties around you, you can treat them as challenges to yourself."

Mo Fan borrowed a line from the old man of the sacred mountain, which was also a line the old man of the sacred mountain said to Xi Zhao in the original story.

It seems Xi Zhao won't be able to see the Old Man of the Divine Mountain this time, so Mo Fan spoke on behalf of the Old Man of the Divine Mountain.

"It's easier said than done, but the inner struggle is really painful."

Xi Zhao gave a self-deprecating snort.

"Only by enduring painful inner trials can one achieve a true transformation."

"You must rely on your heart, for the heart has an infinite capacity; as the saying goes, you can have a clear conscience."

Mo Fan then spoke to Xi Zhao.

Old Man of the Sacred Mountain: Who the hell logged into my account? And even called out my quotes?

"I……"

Xi Zhao wanted to say something more, but his phone rang.

Xi Zhao glanced at it; it was a call from the Realm King, so there must be a new mission.

"I'll think about it carefully. Thank you so much, Mo Fan. I have to go now, bye-bye."

Xi Zhao said to Mo Fan, then ran off...
