Although Zuo Xiao dearly wished to personally kill the Ancient Heavenly King, he was not someone who failed to distinguish right from wrong. He gave a bitter smile. "It's nothing. I no longer had the ability to chase down and kill the Ancient Heavenly King just now. It was only right for you to step in and stop him. It's just..."
"There's no 'it's just'!" How could Yang Chen not understand what Zuo Xiao was thinking?
Having failed to kill him, Zuo Xiao inevitably felt somewhat disappointed, as though he had not truly defeated the Ancient Heavenly King.
"Zuo Xiao, you already won. The Ancient Heavenly King's final strike was no longer enough to contend with you, which was why he fled in such a miserable state. Had the fight continued, his death in battle would only have been a matter of time. Victory and defeat are not necessarily determined by life and death. If that were truly the case, then you still haven't lost to me, hahaha," Yang Chen said with a laugh.
How could Zuo Xiao not know that Yang Chen was comforting him?
Even so, warmth still rose in his heart, and he could not help being won over by Yang Chen's magnanimity. Yang Chen had clearly defeated him. If it had been an ordinary person, he would certainly have treated such a matter as capital worth boasting about. Yet Yang Chen did not take it to heart in the slightest, and instead used it to comfort him.
His recognition of Yang Chen rose another notch.
Just like that, the war gradually drew to a close.
There was naturally no need to mention the victor. Their side had won. The Giant Beast Clan members were either captured or killed.
Quite a few people came forward to report
