Chapter 6626: With What Will You Guard It? Her voice was pleasant with a hint of charm. Hearts would flutter if it had come from another woman. Alas, the mere sentence suffocated listeners like a mountain pressing down on them. She spoke as if this was already settled, a command. Some men would give anything up to please a beauty such as herself. It was just that she wasn’t asking for permission. Although Light God held Time Stopper, it belonged to Staff Ancestor now. This displayed the power and authority of an overlord. Her words alone conveyed the gap between her and the primal ancestors - an uncrossable chasm. Pride had to be set aside if they wanted to live. Dugu Yuan and his rivals froze upon hearing this. They dared to fight but knew their limit. Self-awareness wasn’t false humility. To go against her only prolonged the process and wouldn’t change the result. All eyes were on Light God since he served as the judge. However, she also scanned the crowd, causing weaker members to kneel to the ground. Primal ancestors and heaven-slayers felt a great pressure but didn’t kneel with the help of their dao and merit laws. As for Light God upon receiving her gaze, he felt something pressing down on his chest. “Buzz.” Light pulsed outward as he strengthened his grip on Time Stopper. The treasure itself seemed to want to fly away. No one could fault him for giving it up right now to an overlord. The situation was rather unfair even for an apex primal ancestor. “Must I take it myself?” Staff Ancestor asked, leaving no room for negotiation. Listeners understood that she wouldn’t show mercy if he forced her to make a move. “I’m afraid I must disappoint you, Staff Ancestor.” Light God bowed and said: “I have been entrusted with safeguarding Time Stopper until there is a clear winner.” His tone was neither humble nor arrogant, stunning the crowd. Although he was keeping the artifact for the competition, anyone else in his position would have handed it over to her. “Light God lives up to his reputation.” Many secretly praised him or gave a thumbs-up. They admired his exceptional courage and decisiveness. Most importantly, Time Stopper didn’t belong to him. There was no need for him to risk antagonizing a supreme overlord. “Safeguard it, I see.” Staff Ancestor didn’t become furious. “It is my responsibility.” Light God said without hesitation. “With what will you guard it?” She asked.
