Pata's flaunting of the Leakless Golden Turtle in front of Zhou Wen was equivalent to sending himself to his doorstep. Regardless of whether the Leakless Golden Turtle was one of the three Companion Beasts from Small Buddha Temple or not, a Companion Beast that could withstand taboo powers was extremely rare. There was no reason not to take it.
Pata clearly didn't think so. He had traveled extensively over the years and entered countless dangerous dimensional zones. The Leakless Golden Turtle's miraculous performance had constantly accumulated his confidence. He was very certain that as long as he wore the Leakless Golden Turtle armor, no one could stop him if he wanted to leave.
Furthermore, he had a Companion Beast that could teleport instantly. He could instantly teleport thousands of kilometers away. Coupled with the Leakless Golden Turtle, Pata was confident that he could leave safely, so he was rather fearless.
Seeing Zhou Wen extend his palm and strike at him, Pata didn't feel his strength being affected by the taboo power. He imagined that Zhou Wen's taboo power was useless against him.
"I'll show you what a true excellent-grade Companion Beast is." Pata wasn't in a rush to teleport away. He wanted to showcase the Leakless Golden Turtle's strength in front of Zhou Wen and company.
From his point of view, even if Zhou Wen was at the Calamity grade, it was unlikely that he could break through the Hell grade Leakless Golden Turtle's defense. Taking a step back, even if Zhou Wen could break through it, it was impossible for him to kill him in one strike.
Apart from Human Emperor's freakish Companion Beast, Pata wasn't afraid of anyone on Earth. Even if he fought Karoman, who had powerful offensive strength, he would dare stand still and receive three punches from Karoman.
Of course, the reason why Pata did this was mainly to make Zhou Wen understand how powerful the Leakless Golden Turtle was. Finally, he could make a deal with him. After all, lending a Companion Beast to Karoman gave him limited benefits. Thirty percent of Guide Ancient City's profits was a huge and endless amount of benefits.
"Come on, I'll stand here and let you hit me. I'll show you what a true top-notch defensive Companion Beast is." Pata straightened his back and stood proudly on the spot. He looked as if he did not care about him at all, which was quite imposing.
Zhou Wen slapped Pata, but it didn't hurt him at all. He was secretly feeling smug. The King of Thieves is nothing much after all. After all, he's only an expert before the Spokesperson appeared. Compared to the current Spokesperson, he's still lacking in strength. If not for the taboo power restraining Kaloman, Guide Ancient City would have long been demolished by Kaloman. Now, it was just right for me. Wasn't 30% a little too little for me? That's right, now that you've hit me with your palm, if you want to ask me for help, then it won't be a problem that can be solved with 30%. At least 40% … no … 50% will do … "
Pata was still imagining Zhou Wen and company pleading with him in horror, preventing him from lending his Companion Beast to Colloman no matter what.
Just as he was thinking about it, Pata suddenly felt a chill on his body. That feeling was similar to being stripped naked and thrown into the snow in the middle of winter.
"A little cold? Does Zhou Wen have ice-elemental powers? This bit of frost is useless against me … "Just as Pata was thinking, he suddenly felt that something was amiss. He couldn't sense the Leakless Golden Turtle's consciousness.
"No … Impossible …" Pata thought of a possibility, but he couldn't accept it at all. Or rather, he refused to accept it.
When he looked down at his body, he was horrified to discover that the golden armor on his body had vanished. All that was left was the clothes he usually wore.
Leakless Golden Turtle … Where's the Leakless Golden Turtle … Pata couldn't accept it at all. He repeatedly summoned the Leakless Golden Turtle, but there was no reaction.
Zhou Wen was somewhat surprised. This was because he had used the power of Universe Reversal from the beginning to steal the Leakless Golden Turtle, but to his surprise, the power didn't take effect immediately.
It was unknown if it was because the Universe Reversal was only at the Human stage, preventing him from stealing a Hell-stage Companion Beast, or if it was because the Leakless Golden Turtle's abilities were so freakish that it could even withstand the power of Universe Reversal.
Only then did Zhou Wen activate the Teacher Domain, hoping to figure out the laws of the Leakless Golden Turtle's powers. To his surprise, the originally useless Universe Reversal came into play under the Wizard Pagoda, allowing him to steal the Leakless Golden Turtle back.
Zhou Wen could only slowly study the principles behind it in the future.
Zhou Wen's torment gave Pata some time to imagine. He had also experienced heaven and hell in such a short period of time.
"You … What did you do to me …" Pata looked at Zhou Wen in horror. Up to now, he still refused to believe that the Leakless Golden Turtle was gone. He even hoped that Zhou Wen had used some taboo power to seal it.
It was no wonder Pata wasn't willing to believe it. The reason why he had his present achievements and status was basically because of the Leakless Golden Turtle. Once it was gone, he lost most of his strength.
"I heard you describe the Leakless Golden Turtle so well. Let me play with it." Zhou Wen extended his hand and beckoned. The Leakless Golden Turtle appeared in front of him. Its golden body was motionless like a statue.
"Play?" Pata instantly felt a lack of oxygen in his brain as his mind instantly went blank.
"You … You … You … Return the Leakless Golden Turtle to me …" Pata was overwhelmed with anxiety as he spoke incoherently. When he snapped to his senses, he hurriedly added, "Mr. Zhou, it was all my fault. I was just joking with you. On account of Lance, please return the Leakless Golden Turtle to me. I'll leave immediately. I guarantee I won't lend it to Kaloman … No … Kaloman is nothing … You don't take him to heart at all … In the future, if you have any errands for me, I'll definitely be at your beck and call …"
Li Xuan nearly burst out laughing. "Didn't you ask about Zhou Wen's nickname before coming? Do you think he's called King of Thieves for nothing? Haven't you heard of thieves never leaving empty-handed? Besides, you delivered yourself to me. You still want to take it back? Are you dreaming? "
"On account of Lance and the Ultimate Family Clan, I'll spare your life. Leave," Zhou Wen said casually.
"I …" Pata refused to give up. The Leakless Golden Turtle was his everything. He was about to go crazy.
"Why? Do you still want to leave your life behind?" Li Xuan interrupted him coldly.
Pata's heart chilled. Only then did he realize that without the Leakless Golden Turtle's protection, he was no longer absolutely safe. If Zhou Wen and company really wanted to kill him, he might not have a chance of escaping.
Pata steeled his heart as he turned and flew away. No one stopped him, allowing him to successfully leave Guide Ancient City.
Zhou Wen had indeed let him leave on account of Lance. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let him leave Guide Ancient City alive.
After Pata left Guide Ancient City, his mind turned adrift as though he was dreaming.
