Chapter 181 Unexpected Title OvO

Finally, when his body reached its limit and could no longer support itself, he collapsed to the ground as if all his muscles and bones had been pulled out.

At that moment, it seemed as if time had stood still, and the fireball in his hand instantly dissipated, turning into countless star-like points of light and disappearing into the air.

He was breathing heavily, his chest rising and falling violently, like the rough sea in a strong wind. Sweat soaked his clothes like a flood, clinging to his skin.

Just like that, Ling Tian silently watched Buggy train the power of Grace Sun. His eyes were full of admiration and expectation, and his gaze never left Buggy.

That look seemed to witness a new star struggling to rise in the darkness, emitting a dazzling light. He knew that Bucky was going through a painful tempering, but this tempering would surely make him stronger.

After watching Bucky lying down exhausted, Ling Tian jumped into the pit without hesitation.

His figure was light and agile, like an arrow shot from a bow, drawing a graceful arc in the air, like a meteor across the night sky, with determination and firmness.

He landed steadily next to Bucky. The moment he landed, a small cloud of dust was raised. The dust danced in the faint light around him like a golden elf.

Feeling someone coming, Bucky immediately turned his head to look, and a hint of vigilance flashed in his originally tired eyes.

His body instinctively wanted to react, but he was unable to move due to excessive fatigue. But when he saw that the person coming was Ling Tian, ​​a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face.

The surprise was like a beacon in the darkness, instantly dispelling the fatigue and vigilance in his eyes.

"Brother Lingtian! Why are you here?" Buggy shouted excitedly, with a slight tremor in his voice. The tremor was a mixture of excitement and weakness caused by excessive fatigue.

His eyes lit up instantly, like fireworks suddenly blooming in the night sky, full of surprise and disbelief.

He struggled to get up, as if he wanted to show Ling Tian his growth and progress as quickly as possible.

Ling Tian hurried forward, his steps quick but steady. He stretched out his hands and pressed down on Bucky's shoulders. The strength and warmth from his hands instantly calmed Bucky down.

"Don't move, take a good rest." Ling Tian's voice was deep and powerful, with unquestionable concern. His eyes were fixed on Bucky, full of worry and care.

Bucky was breathing heavily, his chest heaving violently, and every breath seemed so difficult, but his eyes were still firm and burning.

"Brother, I have been practicing hard and want to become stronger!" Although his voice was a little hoarse due to fatigue, the determination contained in it was as hard as steel.

"These days, I've been working day and night, thinking that one day I can truly stand by your side and face all challenges with you." Bucky looked into the distance, as if he saw the difficult yet hopeful road ahead.

Ling Tian smiled and nodded. That smile was as warm as a spring breeze, full of encouragement and praise. "I saw it all. You did a great job, Bucky. But be careful not to tire yourself out."

He patted Bucky's shoulder gently and said, "Increasing strength cannot be achieved overnight. It needs to be done gradually. I will be worried if you work so hard." Ling Tian's words showed both recognition of Bucky's efforts and concern for his physical condition.

Buggy grinned, with a hint of stubbornness and fearlessness in his smile. "Brother, as long as I can become stronger, this little bit of fatigue is nothing!"

His gaze returned to Ling Tian again, "I know the road ahead is still long, and there will be more difficulties and challenges, but I am not afraid. I don't want to hide behind you anymore, I want to fight alongside you."

Bucky's voice became more and more passionate, as if he was taking an oath.

Ling Tian looked at Bucky's determined eyes, and his heart was filled with relief. He knew that the Bucky in front of him was no longer the little brother who needed his protection all the time.

After Buggy rested for a while and recovered some strength, Ling Tian squatted down gently, said with gentle and firm eyes: "Bucky, come on up, I'll carry you back." His voice was not loud, but it was full of reassuring power.

Bucky's face flashed with hesitation, and he looked a little embarrassed. After all, he was a strong-willed person. But at this moment, his body was so exhausted that he was unable to walk. After hesitating for a long time, he slowly lay on Ling Tian's back.

Ling Tian felt the weight of Bucky leaning over him, held Bucky's legs firmly with both hands, and then slowly stood up.

His movements were smooth and natural, without the slightest hesitation. After standing up, he took a deep breath and walked steadily towards the direction of the Buggy Pirates.

His eyes were firm, he looked straight ahead, his steps were steady, and every step was solid and powerful. It seemed that the weight on his back was really insignificant to him, and it seemed that he was not carrying a person, but a firm responsibility and trust.

Along the way, Ling Tian's breathing was steady and even, and his steps always maintained the same rhythm. The sunlight shone on his body, outlining his resolute outline.

When Ling Tian walked to the entrance of Jiaotu, the guards' originally tense expressions suddenly turned pale with fear. Their eyes were as big as copper bells, and their mouths were wide open, as if they could fit an egg.

"How...how is this possible?" A guard stared at Ling Tian, ​​who was carrying Bucky, with wide eyes. His voice was trembling, full of shock and confusion. He took two steps forward, trying to see more clearly, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.

Another guard stammered, "He... not only was he able to survive in that scorched earth, he was able to carry Lord Buggy out on his back! This is simply beyond imagination!" His hand unconsciously pointed at Ling Tian, ​​his fingers trembling slightly.

"Scorched Earth was created by Lord Buggy for training. The temperature is terrifyingly high. How did he do it?" Another guard couldn't help but exclaimed. His face was full of confusion and awe, and his eyes moved back and forth between Ling Tian and Buggy.

They looked at each other in disbelief. For a moment, the entrance of Jiaotu fell into silence, with only the sound of the breeze blowing gently.

Ling Tian seemed to have not heard their words of surprise at all. His expression did not change, and his eyes were still looking straight ahead. He just continued to walk forward steadily with Bucky on his back. His steps were firm and powerful, without any pause or hesitation.

As Ling Tian moved forward step by step, his and Bucky's figures gradually became smaller, slowly moving away from the group of stunned guards at the Jiaotu gate.
