"As long as I drain you dry, this medicinal cauldron, I can enhance my aptitude and become a dazzling prodigy. It is a blessing from your previous life to die under a peony tonight..."
<...The two seemingly invincible sword energies that Mei Ruohua unleashed were shattered instantly, like fragile glass, and dissipated into the air. Her expression changed slightly, and a solemn look appeared on her originally cold face as she became secretly on guard.
Mei Ruohua looked up and her gaze fell on Zhao Wu, who was in the middle of the three.
She was not completely ignorant of Zhao Wu.
She had met Zhao Wu a few times when he was young.
She knew that although Zhao Wu had some talent in cultivation, he was only average and far from being a genius or exceptionally gifted person.
Moreover, no one realized at the time that Zhao Wu actually possessed the Green Wood bloodline.
The Aoki bloodline is an extremely rare and mysterious bloodline in the world.
Aoki, whose primary function is repair, is a bloodline that makes people natural-born geniuses in the medical field.
Legend has it that sometimes, even just a drop of blood from someone with the bloodline of Aoki can revive a severely injured and dying person, restoring their health. Even those who have already stepped into the gates of hell and are halfway to the underworld can be pulled back from the brink of death by them, truly achieving the miraculous effects of reviving the dead and restoring flesh to bones.
In retrospect, this is probably why Zhao Wu was able to become the prospective son-in-law of Prince Li Wentian, the commander of the Demon Suppression Army.
It is said that Li Wentian's adopted daughter, Li Qionghua, contracted an extremely rare and strange disease. Famous doctors all over the world were helpless, and only those with the bloodline of Qingmu had any hope of curing her.
It was precisely because of this that Zhao Wu received Li Wentian's great support and was able to rise from an unknown nobody in the Demon Suppression Army to a centurion, and even become Li Wentian's son-in-law in the future.
Just as Mei Ruohua was lost in thought, she keenly realized that the person who had shattered her sword energy was not Zhao Wu, but an old man holding a giant sword standing to Zhao Wu's left.
The old man was tall and robust, like a majestic mountain, giving people a sense of indestructibility.
He was dressed in heavy black armor, which gleamed coldly in the sunlight, as if radiating endless chill.
His aura was as steady as a mountain, like a thousand-year-old boulder buried deep underground.
To Zhao Wu's right was a middle-aged man wearing blue armor.
This person was also tall and upright, like a pine tree standing proudly between heaven and earth.
His eyes were sharp as an eagle's, revealing an extraordinary aura, as if he could see through everything in the world.
His blue armor emitted a faint blue light, as if blending into the surrounding air, giving people a mysterious and powerful feeling.
Mei Ruohua understood in an instant.
She knew perfectly well that the two heavily armored experts who came with Zhao Wu must be from the military.
Because these two men exuded a violent, murderous aura, carrying a heavy smell of blood and iron. Only those who had experienced countless life-and-death battles in the army and killed countless enemies could possess such a chilling aura.
Mei Ruohua knew the situation was dire, and she dared not be careless in the slightest. She immediately circulated her inner energy, preparing for the impending battle. She could clearly sense that the strength of these two military experts was likely far superior to hers. Facing two opponents alone, she knew she had absolutely no chance of winning.
As for the elders under her command, apart from the Second Elder Yelü Hong, who was of decent strength and might be able to help, the other high-level Martial Grandmasters were simply unable to participate in such a battle between experts.
If they act rashly, they will not only fail to pose a threat to the enemy, but may also lose their lives in vain.
"Zhao Wu, you've come back just in time!"
Zhao Banshan recognized the newcomer as Zhao Wu, pointed at Mei Ruohua, and said with a vicious look in his eyes, "This woman is incredibly audacious, trying to help the Fang family kill our entire family. If you had returned even a breath later, your father and I would probably already be in the underworld. Immediately have these two experts in the army cripple her, but don't kill her easily. I want to torture and humiliate her severely, making her wish she were dead. I want to possess her body, make her my plaything, and then turn her into a human pig, so that she can live in endless pain forever!"
Upon hearing Zhao Banshan's extremely vicious words, Mei Ruohua was immediately enraged.
Her eyebrows furrowed, her eyes burning with rage, and she roared, "Zhao Banshan, you're courting death! Have you forgotten how you knelt before me begging for mercy?"
“Mei Ruohua, times have changed. Before, you were the patriarch and we Zhao family members were the fish on the chopping block. But now, the tables have turned. My grandson Zhao Wu is the butcher and you are the fish on the chopping block.”
Zhao Banshan sneered, "You are the Valley Master of Divine Doctor Valley, can't you even figure this out?"
"General Zhou, please help me cripple this woman."
After hearing Zhao Banshan's words, Zhao Wu's face became even more gloomy. He immediately turned to the old man in black heavy armor beside him.
Those familiar with the Demon Suppression Army would recognize this person and the tall, middle-aged man in blue armor.
These two are no ordinary people, as they are two of the four divine generals who guard Li Wentian, the commander of the Demon Suppression Army.
The old man's name was Zhou Yun, and he was known as General Zhou.
The middle-aged man was named Cao Hai, and was known as General Cao.
Both of them were at the early stage of the Divine Sense Realm, and their strength was above that of Mei Ruohua.
Moreover, they are not just slightly stronger than Mei Ruohua, but far stronger by a whole level.
"Are you going to cripple your own cultivation, or do you need me to do it?"
Zhou Shenjiang, wielding a giant sword, began to approach Mei Ruohua.
