810: Chapter 370: Making a Coback_2 810: Chapter 370: Making a Coback_2 Hu Fei had miscalculated the balance of power between the two sides.
In her view, although Zhou Tian might suffer so losses at the hands of the divine beasts initially, once Zhou Tian regained the feeling from before, not to ntion defeating those divine beasts, it wouldn’t be impossible to kill them all.
In fact, the war between Zhou Tian and the three-headed divine beasts ended in total defeat.
If it hadn’t been for the divine beasts acting separately, Zhou Tian might not have been able to defeat even the first Qilin he had slain.
Another crucial point was that Hu Fei, having underestimated the strength of the divine beasts, did not anticipate they would continue to destroy Zhou Tian’s territory.
And with their strength, they would devastate Zhou Tian’s land so thoroughly.
If Zhou Tian hadn’t ultimately survived the encounter with the three-headed divine beasts, the continent under his control might have been on the verge of complete annihilation at their hands.
Although she had intended to use the divine beasts, Hu Fei had never thought she would pay such a heavy cost to achieve her goals.
So, when things had progressed to this point, to say that Hu Fei didn’t regret it would clearly be impossible.
However, regardless of her regret, Hu Fei didn’t say much at the ti.
The plan was her own decision, so no matter how things turned out in the end, she had to face the consequences.
After all, the three-headed divine beasts did not have the ability to occupy their territory, nor did they know the locations of Zhou Tian’s other holdings overseas.
Therefore, Hu Fei need not worry that these three formidable enemies would truly bring about the annihilation of Zhou Tian’s forces.
Moreover, even though the situation was sowhat unexpected, Zhou Tian had not co to harm.
Thus, with the thought of pushing the responsibility onto Zhou Tian, there was no need for Hu Fei to be too anxious at that mont.
Indeed, Zhou Tian was fully prepared to shoulder the pressure brought on by the three-headed divine beasts alone.
While it could be said that Hu Fei was the one who caused all of this, firstly, Zhou Tian wasn’t aware of it, and secondly, Zhou Tian knew that without stepping in himself, the monsters under his command would be utterly ineffectual in the matter.
So even though Zhou Tian had recently suffered a setback at the hands of the three-headed divine beasts, once he had recovered, he imdiately and quietly headed towards the location of the divine beasts.
Because Zhou Tian had deliberately concealed his aura, as he approached the three-headed divine beasts, they were ultimately unable to detect his presence, allowing him to get close without the divine beasts noticing the enemy closing in.
Upon closing in on these formidable opponents, Zhou Tian didn’t rush to retaliate.
Although he didn’t want to admit it, he was very much aware that the three-headed divine beasts were not weak — especially when they joined forces, their combat power far exceeded his own.
Unless he could retrieve his Demonic Slaying Weapon, the most he could hope to do in the face of the three divine beasts was to flee; defeating them had beco an improbable feat.
Therefore, instead of rashly exposing himself to be defeated, it was better for Zhou Tian to stay hidden in the shadows and wait for an opportunity to counterattack.
After all, the three-headed divine beasts were unaware of his whereabouts, and without their guard up, they might carelessly reveal a weakness at so mont.
At that ti, Zhou Tian wouldn’t need to do anything else but wait for them to expose their vulnerability, seize the chance to reclaim his weapon, and then he would not be entirely without hope in the battle.
As it turned out, Zhou Tian waited nearly a full day.
Having suffered a disadvantage against Zhou Tian earlier, the three-headed divine beasts showed no intention of splitting up and were extrely cautious in their actions, leaving Zhou Tian without an opportunity to strike, so much so that he couldn’t help cursing them inwardly.
Ultimately, it was the prolonged destruction that caused the divine beasts to let their guard down for a mont, affording Zhou Tian the chance to recapture his short sword.
Being able to exploit an oversight and directly reclaim his weapon was excellent news for Zhou Tian.
He was well aware that the divine beasts had given him this chance only because they did not understand the weapon; otherwise, once in Zhou Tian’s hands, he believed that no matter how strong the enemy was, they could not easily steal the short sword from him through such ans.
Firstly, the three-headed divine beasts were unaware of the sword’s chanisms, so they had no way of sealing off the special energy within the short sword, which not only limited their strength but also made it impossible for them to secure the sword.
Thus, they could only leave it out in the open.
