Before she finished speaking, the woman's face suddenly changed, and shock appeared in her eyes.
Because she didn't know when, the girl disappeared from the wooden barrel in front of her. She stood in this empty room, but she felt the pressure that made her tremble.
But the shock was only for a moment, the woman quickly calmed down, a scornful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She is a warrior in the Jindan stage and a high-ranking fifth-grade physician. It is simply a dream for a mere mortal to harm her.
The spiritual energy in her body was running wildly, and at this moment, silver needles that were icy to the bone shot towards her.
A sneer appeared on the woman's face, and her spiritual power suddenly burst out, instantly melting those silver needles without a trace.
The next moment, her spiritual pressure was contracting and releasing again, and soon a moan was heard from the corner.
Then, He Xi, wearing white pajamas, with a pale face and blood at the corners of his mouth, slowly appeared.
Seeing He Xi's miserable appearance, the woman smiled even more arrogantly, "You think you can hurt me with such a petty trick? You are really overestimating yourself!"
At this moment, He Xi's meridians were in excruciating pain all over her body, and her chest felt like it was on fire, but a cold smile appeared in her eyes: "Oh, really? You said you can't hurt me, so I can't hurt you?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the woman's face suddenly changed. She reached out and touched her left cheek, and a damp feeling spread across her fingertips. The skin on her face could already feel a burning pain.
"How dare you hurt my face! You - are looking for death!!" The woman was shocked and angry, with a crazy murderous intent on her face. The spiritual energy in her palms quickly gathered, and then she struck He Xi fiercely.
He Xi's internal energy was also running wildly. Although the woman in front of her was much stronger than her, it did not mean that she would surrender. Even if she would be injured, she would make the other party pay the same price.
Seeing that the woman's attack was about to fall on He Xi, her eyes fell on a certain part of He Xi's body, but her face suddenly changed.
The spiritual power that had already been used to attack was forcibly taken back. Because of the rebound pressure, she staggered back several steps before finally standing against the wall with an expression of disbelief on her face.
He Xi was also a little confused by this sudden change. He didn't understand why she suddenly stepped back and looked as if she had seen a ghost.
The red-dressed woman stood there for several breaths before she trembled and said, "How could it be... How could the master leave a mark on someone like you?"
He Xi felt her gaze on his head, and with a thought in his mind, he quickly took off the jade hairpin that bound his hair, with a hint of coldness in his eyes: "Did Nangong Yu send you here?"
The red-clothed woman's face was full of surprise and uncertainty. She looked at He Xi with eyes full of cruelty and jealousy, but she had to suppress the murderous intent in her heart.
Her name is Suzaku, and she is one of Pluto's personal guards. Her main responsibilities are to look after Pluto's body and to make elixirs and medicines.
Today the master went out and came back very late. Before she could pay her respects, Qinglong said that the master asked her to come to this wilderness to heal someone's wounds, and even asked her to take the precious Jade Muscle Pill.
Zhuque came to this remote courtyard with a heart full of unspeakable frustration and resentment, but what he saw was a mediocre-looking little girl, a waste without any spiritual power at all.
Zhuque couldn't understand why his master, who never took any woman seriously, would let her come all the way to this remote place just to treat the skin wounds of such a little girl. (To be continued)
