In fact, one could tell from the atmosphere of Su and Saine's exchange.
Su regarded Saine as an equal, and there was even a faint hint of wariness.
She had taken notice of the "great melee of Level-9 Beings" between the Flowing Light Retrospective World and the Material Star Realm of the present time-space.
She also knew that Saine's peak combat power after merging with the God of Machines was at the Level-9 Mid-Stage.
That was power even greater than Su's true body!
Strength was the foundation of everything. Looking at Su, who stood before him and refused to let him proceed any farther, Saine asked curiously, "Do you want to fight me?"
Su's expression turned unpleasant again.
She said to Saine, "If you refuse to stop advancing and insist on destroying the rules in this stretch of time-space under my charge, then I can only take action."
Su stared fixedly at Saine.
Saine, on the other hand, did not carry such a strong smell of gunpowder. He was still lowering his head, pondering something.
"The destruction of the Decayed Civilization is the trend of the times. Have you ever considered that this is the inevitability of history's course?" Saine said.
Su lowered her eyes. She seemed determined to prevent Saine from doing anything at all in this time-space.
Just as Saine and Su were locked in confrontation, a Level-8 Peak Being descended here.
It was Nan Yang, the Level-8 Peak Dominator of the Curse Descent Civilization.
This was a strange powerhouse wearing a Pumpkin Mask and holding a stalk of straw.
When it had just arrived, even Su had failed to notice it. Saine had been the first to notice its presence through the Faceless Mask.
In terms of strength, Nan Yang was clearly far inferior to the Half-Nines
