She smiled slightly as she said this, her expression both poignant and resolute, clearly indicating that she was prepared to die.
At this moment, the mosquito Taoist in the tree cackled: "What a touching scene! People say that husband and wife are like birds in the same forest, flying away separately when disaster strikes. I never expected that the affection between you two is even deeper than that between husband and wife."
Hearing her description, Qiu Honglei's cheeks, which were already pale from nervousness and fear, flushed slightly.
Seeing her shy and bashful appearance, even the picky Mosquito Taoist had to admit that this woman was truly a peerless beauty.
Unfortunately, the more this happened, the more jealous and angry she became: "Unfortunately, I love breaking up loving couples the most!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed towards the two of them.
Having learned from her previous experience, she knew that Zu An was as slippery as an eel and would be difficult to catch in a short time. Rather than that, it would be better to deal with Qiu Honglei first.
Given their previous relationship of rescuing each other, she knew that if she attacked Qiu Honglei, Zu An would inevitably come to her rescue, thus reducing the effectiveness of his ghostly movements by at least half.
As expected, seeing the other party attack Qiu Honglei, Zu An gritted his teeth and stepped forward to help her defend.
Mosquito Taoist snorted and took a step forward, moving so fast that Zu An couldn't react at all.
She suddenly appeared beside Zu An and struck him in the ribs with her palm. She saw through his thoughts; he was taking advantage of her fear of killing him to make her feel restrained.
Even if I can't kill him, surely I can disable his mobility first?
The force of this palm strike would likely render even a peak sixth-rank soldier completely incapable of fighting, let alone a fifth-rank soldier.
Zuan coughed up blood and fell to one side. He felt that he didn't know how many ribs were broken, but the "Primordial Chaos Scripture" was running rapidly, constantly repairing his injuries.
Mosquito Taoist ignored him and continued his attack on Qiu Honglei.
"Ah Zu!" Qiu Honglei exclaimed in surprise, but she had no time to look at him now. She hurriedly summoned the Changxin Palace Lantern, and the pale yellow light spread out and enveloped the Mosquito Taoist. Her movements were obviously much slower.
Mosquito Taoist remained calm: "Hmph, your strength is too low to unleash the power of this lamp."
The first use was the most effective. Now the lantern's energy seems to have weakened considerably, unable to restrain the Mosquito Taoist's figure, only able to slow down her movements.
Only then could Qiu Honglei barely keep up with her speed. The two exchanged several blows in an instant. However, while Mosquito Daoist's body could be restrained, a Grandmaster's eyesight and experience could not be restrained. He quickly seized an opening and struck her shoulder with a palm.
Qiu Honglei screamed and flew backward. Just as Mosquito Daoist was about to take her life, Zu An's voice came from the side: "You want to touch my woman? Did you ask me first?"
