"If you want to join forces, then come. I have never been afraid of anything. I want to test if this body you speak of so highly is truly as miraculous as you claim. From my perspective, this body does not even need to be preserved further. Once this battle is over, it will merely be raw material."
Li Yao was utterly fearless at this moment, fully in control of this body. Although he lacked a Divine Grid or divinity, the sheer power of this body alone raised his usable strength by several tiers.
Now, he could advance or retreat with ease, and his presence here wasn't very significant, so he had fewer reservations and naturally acted slightly more arrogant.
Of course, the main reason was the Divine King's displeasure. To have fallen to this level and still fail to recognize the situation was truly pitiful.
Though the Salary Kings were slightly dissatisfied with the Divine King's decision, they had to move forward and back together to preserve the pyramid.
