Grim Demon's name spread throughout the world. Many people were studying Grim Demon's abilities, but due to the lack of information, they failed to figure anything out.
Zhou Wen finally heaved a sigh of relief when no Guardian continued challenging him.
However, Grim Demon wasn't happy at all. He sat by the side dejectedly and drew on the ground with a small branch. As he drew, he muttered softly, "Why isn't anyone challenging … Why isn't anyone challenging …"
Zhou Wen pretended not to hear him. This fellow was locked in the sword by Demonic Neonate, so it was normal for him to come out to take a breather.
I hope no one will challenge me in the remaining twenty hours, Zhou Wen prayed inwardly.
Ice Maiden secretly sized up Grim Demon and was extremely shocked. Previously, she had imagined that Grim Demon could only be considered an accessory and that his abilities weren't very strong. Otherwise, how could he be willing to be a Companion Beast's Guardian? But from the looks of it, Grim Demon was actually a genuine Terror-grade existence. This shocked her even more.
Even a Companion Beast's Guardian is at the Terror grade? Ice Maiden had never heard of such a thing before, nor did she know how Zhou Wen had done it.
Time ticked by, but no one challenged Grim Demon again. When it was almost forty-eight hours, someone finally challenged Grim Demon again. However, the challenger was Ya.
"Someone is challenging me!" Grim Demon stood up excitedly and was about to rush into the cube.
"After entering, immediately admit defeat and come out," Zhou Wen said lightly.
Grim Demon immediately deflated like a balloon as he looked at Zhou Wen with a look of resentment. "Why? Don't you want to get first place? "
"No, do as I say." Zhou Wen wasn't completely uninterested in first place, but he still didn't know what the benefits and drawbacks of becoming first place were.
Wang Mingyuan had once told him not to take first place, so Zhou Wen still hadn't made up his mind.
Furthermore, it wasn't that easy to obtain first place. He didn't know if there were any Terror-grade Guardians fighting now. However, Night Thearch and the person from Forbidden City who hadn't fought were definitely at the Terror grade. In the final Infinite Battle, perhaps such a terrifying existence would take action.
It probably wouldn't be easy for Zhong Ziya to maintain first place.
"I guarantee that as long as you let me fight, I'll definitely obtain first place." Grim Demon looked at Zhou Wen with anticipation.
"Yes, I'll seek your help when I want to get first place." Zhou Wen looked at Demonic Neonate. Demonic Neonate seemed to understand Zhou Wen's intentions as she glanced at Grim Demon.
Grim Demon immediately obediently walked towards the cube. Zhou Wen exhorted again, "Pay attention when you go up. See if Ya will secretly send you a message."
"Got it," Grim Demon replied listlessly as he entered the cube.
Ya didn't send any news. All he did was take back first place. If Zhou Wen had known this would happen, he wouldn't have sent Grim Demon. It would have been more straightforward to give up.
When the Federation citizens saw that the first position had changed and returned to Ya's hands, they naturally understood that they were in cahoots.
Ya is already a Guardian. It's impossible for Grim Demon to be his. Then, who does Grim Demon belong to? If we can find Ya, we might know who Grim Demon belongs to. "
"Which family are these people from? With so many Mythical Companion Beasts, there's actually a Guardian like Ya and Grim Demon. It's too terrifying. "
"Did you notice? Second place became Grim Demon, but after the Mythical Companion Beast admitted defeat, it didn't obtain a ranking. This is too discriminatory."
"What can I do? In the future, it will be the era of Guardians. Existences like Ya and Grim Demon aren't something ordinary humans and Companion Beasts can deal with."
"Instead of thinking about this, why don't we think about where to contract a powerful Guardian like Grim Demon?"
Zhou Wen saw Ya make a gesture before he disappeared. It was the gesture Ya made every time they played cards together.
Only then did Zhou Wen feel relieved. Although he didn't know what Ya had done, it looked like he had succeeded.
He unsummoned Ice Maiden and Grim Demon and was about to find Li Xuan and Feng Qiuyan when his phone suddenly rang. It was a message from The Thearch.
"You contracted Grim Demon?" The omniscient The Thearch seemed to be puzzled for the first time.
"I have nothing to do with Grim Demon. Why do you ask?" Zhou Wen replied.
"It's fine. Will he cooperate with your Companion Beast to stall for time? If it's fine, will he give first place to Ya? "The Thearch said disdainfully.
"It's really fine." Zhou Wen didn't wish to explain anything. The more he said, the more mistakes he would make. With The Thearch's shrewdness, it was very easy for her to deduce something from his words.
"Although Grim Demon is very strong, contracting him is definitely not a good choice." The Thearch seemed to believe that Zhou Wen was related to Grim Demon.
Zhou Wen was somewhat surprised. From the meaning behind The Thearch's words, she seemed to know Grim Demon. Furthermore, Grim Demon was the first person The Thearch said was very strong.
Is Grim Demon really that strong? Zhou Wen had always felt that Grim Demon wasn't that strong because he was too cowardly in front of Demonic Neonate.
However, Zhou Wen now felt that what Grim Demon had said in the past wasn't purely bragging.
"Then who's the best choice? You? "Zhou Wen replied.
"You aren't qualified to contract me," The Thearch answered arrogantly.
However, her words seemed to admit that she was also a Guardian, but he couldn't be sure. It was also possible that The Thearch had deliberately said so to mislead him.
"However, if you do me a favor, I can consider giving you a chance." The Thearch sent another message.
"What chance?" Zhou Wen was alarmed, but he asked despite knowing the answer.
"A chance to contract the strongest Guardian," The Thearch said.
"Don't tell me the strongest Guardian you mentioned is yourself?" Zhou Wen replied.
"Guess."
"I'm not interested in guessing." Zhou Wen didn't wish to play guessing games with her. He said bluntly, "If the strongest Guardian you mentioned is you, I can consider it."
The Thearch didn't continue Zhou Wen's topic. "Let's continue talking after we obtain the Dimensional Wheel."
"If I can obtain the Dimensional Wheel, I'll be the lord of Earth. What's there to discuss with you?" Zhou Wen probed.
"Don't tell me you really think that you're the lord of Earth after getting first place?" The Thearch replied.
"Didn't she say that the Dimensional Wheel will bestow immense power? With absolute power, one is naturally the lord of Earth. Don't you also want the Dimensional Wheel? "Zhou Wen asked.
"Let's talk about it after you obtain the Dimensional Wheel," The Thearch replied before going offline. She didn't reply to Zhou Wen's message.
What is she trying to do? Zhou Wen was somewhat puzzled.
