Armor: Shura appears at the beginning

Chapter 149 Meeting

At the dock of City D, Xizhao and Bing'er were hastily planning their evacuation, and the atmosphere was filled with tension and anxiety.

At this critical moment, a figure silently blocked their way.

Xi Zhao looked closely and found that it was a mysterious figure wearing strange armor. His eyes revealed an unquestionable determination, which made Xi Zhao immediately tense up.

"You can leave freely, but she must stay." A steady voice broke the silence around them. Jiang Zhong stared straight at Xizhao, and his finger gently stroked and pointed at Bing'er who was standing next to Xizhao.

"What do you mean? Who are you?"

There was a hint of anger and confusion in Xizhao's voice. He instinctively held Bing'er tightly behind him, as if he wanted to protect her from all threats.

Bing'er also had a bewildered look on her face, her eyes wandering between Jiang Zhong and Xi Zhao.

"Sigh..." Jiang Zhong sighed softly, and then the armor was removed, revealing his true face.

"How... could it be you!" Xi Zhao was shocked, but he also recognized the opponent who suddenly appeared. He recalled the happy times he had played basketball with Kun Zhong. At that time, Jiang Zhong was still so friendly and easy-going, but now he stood on the opposite side of him.

"Brother Jiang Zhong!" Bing'er shouted in surprise at this moment. She pushed Xizhao's protection away regardless of everything and ran towards Jiang Zhong excitedly, as if all her doubts and fears disappeared at this moment.

Xi Zhao was stunned, his eyes full of confusion and doubt. He didn't understand why Bing'er had such strong trust and dependence on this sudden enemy.

But the scene before him undoubtedly made the already complicated situation even more confusing.

......

Xizhao's gaze was like the sharp edge of a sword, fixed firmly on his childhood best friend Jiang Zhong.

Many years passed and he never expected that when they met again, the other person was no longer the same as before, which made him feel mixed emotions.

"Jiang Zhong, what on earth have you been through these years?" Xi Zhao thought to himself, but his face remained expressionless and his vigilance was evident in his words.

"Xi Zhao, please go. Bing'er, I can't let her go back to that dangerous place." Jiang Zhong's voice was filled with helplessness and determination.

The brutality of the "Lightning King" was enough to scare anyone. Bing'er was not suitable to stay in the shadow world full of conspiracy and killing. As for Xizhao, he had strong resistance to electricity.

"No! Jiang Zhong, you must tell me your true purpose!"

Xizhao's tone was filled with unquestionable firmness. He couldn't just hand Bing'er over to a friend whom he hadn't seen for many years and whose identity was a mystery.

Jiang Zhong sighed, his eyes flashing with tenderness and determination: "Xi Zhao, I am doing this for Bing'er's good, and for your good. The shadow world is a place that devours humanity and distorts the soul. I hope you can all break free from its shackles and regain your freedom."

His words were full of sincerity and expectation, and he hoped that Xizhao could understand his difficulties.

"Brother Jiang Zhong, I..." Bing'er hesitated to speak. She felt Jiang Zhong's care and protection, but at the same time she was reluctant to leave Xi Zhao and was dependent on him. She didn't know how to choose and could only look at the two of them helplessly.

"Bing'er, you don't have to make a decision right away." Jiang Zhong interrupted Bing'er, his tone full of unquestionable determination.

"But please believe that everything I do is for your safety. If necessary, I will take necessary measures to protect you."

"Ah!" Bing'er's cheeks flushed when she heard this, feeling both shy and grateful. She had never thought that she would be valued so much by others, which made her both moved and terrified.

Xi Zhao stood there, struggling internally. He knew Jiang Zhong's strength very well, and he also knew that he couldn't easily stop him from taking Bing'er away. But how could he be willing to give up Bing'er like this?

Seeing this, Jiang Zhong took two steps forward again, staring at Bing'er with sharp eyes, as if giving her strength and courage in his own way.

He knew that the decision at this moment was crucial to Bing'er, and all he could do was to try his best to guide her onto the right path and avoid repeating the tragic ending!

"Bing'er, considering that you were once King Kai's right-hand man, and as a righteous armored warrior, I have the mission of eliminating evil and protecting the innocent. In theory, I should regard you as an enemy and eliminate you."

"But thinking back to the time we spent together in the orphanage, those days of innocence, of mutual support, of you and I being such close friends, it fills me with conflict and struggle, and I don't want to point the sword at you so easily."

"Therefore, I have decided to return the power of fate to you. Your future will be written by you."

"Decide for yourself?" Bing'er was stunned for a moment when she heard this, her eyes full of confusion and puzzlement.

"Yes, Bing'er, you need to make a choice between me and King Kai. If you choose to stand on my side, then from now on, we will be partners fighting side by side."

"And if you choose to continue to follow King Kai, then unfortunately, confrontation between us will be unavoidable, and I may have to take some necessary measures." Jiang Zhong's words revealed an indescribable complex emotion.

As for the actual action plan, Jiang Zhong thought to himself that perhaps it would be more appropriate to adopt a more gentle yet strategic approach.

For example, knock him out and tie him up.

? ? ? ?

"From now on, you will follow me." Jiang Zhong's words were gentle but firm.

Xi Zhao's face suddenly changed when he heard this.

Jiang Zhong, I haven't seen you for many years, and you have become so disgusting!

It is simply absurd to make such a request so bluntly here!

You have no regard for other people's feelings!

The two options given by Jiang Zhong actually left no room for choice.

If he chooses the second option, given Jiang Zhong's strength, the consequences are self-evident.

Therefore, of these two options, only one is actually safe. Any rational person can easily make the choice! "

Bing'er struggled internally. She was not a dull person and naturally understood the interests involved. She had intended to be honest with Jiang Zhong and was eager to break free from the constraints of the film industry, but many concerns made her hesitant.

"Do you really not mind? How can someone like me, who is covered in stains, stay with you?" There was a hint of bitterness and inferiority in Bing'er's voice.

Jiang Zhong smiled gently, stretched out his hand and tapped Bing'er's forehead, pretending to be stern but full of doting: "Silly girl, how could I dislike a beauty like you? In my heart, you are always that innocent and kind girl."

He asked gently again, "Are you willing to come with me? As for the Kage and the King of the Realm, you don't have to worry about it as long as I'm here."

Although Bing'er felt a slight pain on her forehead, the warmth in her heart quickly spread throughout her body, and the pain instantly became insignificant.

Her eyes were moist, tears welled up in her eyes, and finally turned into a firm strength. She suddenly stretched out her arms and hugged Jiang Zhong tightly, as if she wanted to treasure this warmth forever.

"Well, I will listen to Brother Jiang Zhong in everything." There was a hint of shyness and trust in Bing'er's voice, and she snuggled tightly in Jiang Zhong's arms.

Jiang Zhong smiled, patted Bing'er on the back, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

However, this reverie was quickly pulled back by reality. Jiang Zhong turned his gaze to Xi Zhao, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Xizhao, as an important force in the shadow world and also the summoner of the golden armor, has great potential and value. Jiang Zhong sincerely hopes that Xizhao can make a wise choice.

"Xi Zhao, you can actually choose to join us to fight against evil and safeguard justice." Jiang Zhong's words were full of sincerity and expectation.

However, Xi Zhao's response seemed resolute and helpless: "No, King Kai... I have my own difficulties and responsibilities." After saying that, he left without looking back, leaving behind a lonely and determined back.

Jiang Zhong looked at the direction where Xizhao left, feeling mixed emotions.

He understood that everyone has their own path and choices, and they cannot be forced.

But he also believed that one day, Xizhao would see the truth and make the right decision.

......

"Look, isn't that Brother Jiang Zhong who's back? We've known each other for a long time. Let me explain the situation to everyone." Wang Jianan looked at Meizhen and her group, and explained the previous misunderstanding in a soft voice.

It turned out that after the battle subsided, she was unfortunately mistaken for a member of the Shadow World camp. No matter how earnest her words were, she could not dispel the doubts of Meizhen and the others.

At this moment, Jiang Zhong took Bing'er's hand and walked into the crowd. Bing'er's appearance was like a magnet, instantly attracting everyone's attention and triggering new curiosity and discussion.

"Brother Jiang Zhong, you finally showed up!" Wang Jianan happily stepped forward, "Help me clarify all this..."

As Jiang Zhong told the whole story, including Wang Jiannan's experience, everyone present gradually understood the context of the matter.

"Jiang Zhong, so you are..." Kun Zhong's voice was filled with incredible excitement. He never expected that Jiang Zhong, whom he was familiar with, was actually the summoner of the mysterious armor. This change of identity was astonishing.
