Chapter 530 This is too difficult

"It's Jed!!"

"The first guardian of the Divine Realm, Jed?!"

A Shapeshifters leader recognized Jed, and the news frightened everyone else from taking another step forward.

Jed Carlson, the Guardian of Light, had been a deterrent in the Divine Realm for tens of thousands of years, considered an invincible existence below the level of Supreme Deity.

What does being at the Supreme Deity level imply?

Drakaina stood by William's side, her smile somewhat peculiar as she asked in a low voice, "Jed, you know who that is, right?"

She still had a trump card up her sleeve, which, in her view, should be just right to deal with Jed, then she would take the opportunity to rescue Hydra.

Assuming no other powerful figures from the Divine Alliance were drawn in, there should be no problem.

But now, with William's forceful intervention, it all depended on whether William had the strength to confront Jed.

"Guardian of Light, Jed?" William looked at the figure, faintly recalling some memories...

"Yes, Jed, the first guardian of the Divine Realm. Can you beat him?"

Drakaina looked at William with a teasing smile.

She now seriously doubted that William was hiding his true strength.

After all, Jesus had renounced his divine power in front of William, and seeing how eagerly the ancient dragon sought to please him, Drakaina even thought that William might possess the power of a Supreme Deity...

If that was the case, it couldn't be better.

"Reverse psychology?" William glanced at Drakaina, his look alone imposing a strong sense of oppression on her.

Drakaina suddenly dared not speak anymore.

Really just a Mortal Deity level of power?

Thinking about it now, Drakaina felt she'd have to be a fool to believe that.

At this moment, she even suspected that William might actually be the sea god Poseidon himself...

"You all step back!" William said, "I will bring out Hydra."

The ancient dragon and Jesus, knowing the extent of William's power, naturally did not consider Jed a threat. Hearing William's instruction, they stepped back.

Jed?

How strong could he be?

In the presence of William, claiming to be powerful might just mean a misunderstanding of what true strength is.

"Did you come here to rescue Hydra?" Jed smiled knowingly, "I remember back in the day, Hydra always accompanied you. It seems your bond is truly deep."

Jed, appearing to understand everything, proudly said, "I've wanted to challenge you to another sword fight for years but couldn't find you. So, when I learned Hydra was sealed, I volunteered to guard this God's Tear Ridge, and sure enough, I waited for you!"

"How do you think I've spent these years?"

Jed grew more and more excited.

William tentatively asked, "Hardcore Gamer?"

Jed looked puzzled, "What's a Hardcore Gamer?"

"Oh, nothing, just reminded me of you." William hadn't expected someone to wait for him for hundreds of thousands of years, especially a man.

And this man seemed to believe that William would inevitably come to save her...

It was hard to know how to respond.

Jed didn't care about William's thoughts and said, "Rescuing Hydra is simple, you just have to beat me."

William initially wanted to say it indeed sounded simple, but after a thought, he reluctantly said, "This is too difficult."

Jed drained the jug of wine, tossed it aside, and with a grand gesture, summoned a sword of light into his hand, excitedly staring at William, "Come on! Let me see if, after all these years, your swordsmanship remains as strong as ever!"

William raised an eyebrow, "I don't have a weapon. I gave my sword away."

"..."

Jed looked as if he had been turned to stone.

A warrior obsessed with swordsmanship practices his sword day after day, solely to have a match with the opponent he admires in his heart. After finally waiting for the day to compete in swordsmanship, the opponent says, "I didn't bring a weapon, just stab at me directly..."

Where's the fun in that?

What was all the preparation for?

"You... how could you give your sword away? Who did you give it to?" Jed's eyes were bloodshot, his expression a mix of excitement and a sense of loss.

"My wife, well, she's also my student."

"..." Jed clenched his fists, his teeth gritted in anger, "A woman?! Yet another woman! Do you realize? Women only slow down your swordsmanship!"

"And she's your student?" Jed's face showed rage, "Your student became your wife?"

"You, as a teacher, took action towards your female student?"

"And you have the audacity to say it out loud? Disgusting! You could've solved it with money! Spend a little, even if it's to visit the red-light district, how much could it cost, even if you sneak into the red-light district. And yet you openly talk about it! Absolutely vile!"

Upon learning that William had given his divine sword to someone else, Jed looked like he was about to break down mentally without even starting the fight, appearing on the verge of a mental collapse.
