Chapter 1890 Scolded The Sacred Sovereign

"So you are willing to use your life to activate the defensive array?"

Atlas cast a cold glance toward Maria.

He was well aware that, once the array opened, the Snowy Region's defense would be incredibly powerful.

However, it would cost Maria's life to open the array.

"If you insist on killing Darren, I'll open it without hesitation," Maria warned with a serious expression.

"That's interesting..." Atlas' eyes narrowed with great interest, as he added, "Tiffany must value this boy so much that you are willing to sacrifice yourself for his sake."

Maria looked back at Atlas with calmness in her eyes and answered, "You're mistaken. I decided to do this myself, and it has nothing to do with my master."

"Well, far be it from me to stop you. Go on. Activate the defensive array! If you don't do it, I will kill you myself!"

What Maria had done was risky, and Atlas figured that she must have a good reason for doing that. He was quite curious about her motives, though.

After all, it was important to note that training a Holy Maiden took a lot of time and resources.

If Maria was all it took to activate the array, coming here would have been worth Atlas' time, even if he couldn't kill Darren.

Maria could save Darren today, but she wouldn't be able to protect him forever.

"Ha-ha. Do you think I'm bluffing?" A blue icy flame slowly slid through Maria's body, covering it fully, as she leveled an ugly sneer toward Atlas.

Whoosh!

At that moment, Darren dived down and landed beside Maria.

He quickly unleashed his power to keep

ll be coming for you!"

With that said, Atlas turned away and stepped into the void.

He was furious with how Darren treated him, but, unfortunately, he couldn't deny that Darren had a point.

The dragon blood's secret could only be found in Gael's hands.

If he wanted to obtain the real dragon blood, he had to get all the necessary information from Gael.

"Phew! That was so scary! Are you okay?"

Maria asked as soon as the coast was clear. She looked like she was still in a state of shock.

"I'm fine. I'm sorry I got you into trouble," Darren immediately responded.

"It's okay. We are all friends here, so there's no need to apologize. What's important is that we are both all right," Maria reassured him with a relieved smile.

"Well, you can go and get some rest. I'm leaving for now, but I'll come over again once your master returns." The truth was that Darren didn't want to bring any more trouble to the Snowy Region, so he thought that it would be best to leave.

"You don't have to leave. I don't think he will return anyway since you scolded him so badly just now. Ha-ha! I've never seen a Sacred Sovereign humiliated like that! It was so funny!"

"Yeah, he was so stupid." Darren couldn't help but smile in the face of her sweet laughter.

Bang! Bang! Bang.

Less than an hour after Atlas left, an intense earthquake suddenly occurred in the Snowy Region.

A stout man, who was only about a foot tall, walked amid the ice and snow. Every step he took shook the earth to its core, and even the space beneath his feet was wrecked.
