"Get lost!" Because Zu An's fate was now unknown, Yun Yuqing was obviously in a bad mood. When she saw the fat man rushing over with a ferocious expression, she directly raised her hand and drew a talisman in the air.
The obscure and mysterious runes glowed with a purple light, and a transparent film seemed to have appeared out of thin air around them.
A hint of contempt flashed in the eyes of the short, burly man. Not to mention something that looked like it could be easily punctured, even the heavy shields used in military formations couldn't withstand his full-force hammer blow.
He continued to strike with the hammer, and, worried that the rune might actually have some significance, he added three points of force.
In his decades-long military career, nothing was unbreakable with a single blow; if it was, he would simply strike again.
The expected loud noise and cracking sound did not come; he felt as if all his strength had been thrown at a ball of cotton.
His eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, because he saw that his hammer had dented the membrane to its limit, but the membrane still wouldn't break.
He exerted all his strength, and the membrane continued to indent, almost touching the woman and Zu'an's bodies inside, before it could go no further.
"Watch out!" came a shout from his companion.
The short, burly man also sensed something was wrong and instinctively tried to back away, but as he withdrew his strength, the thin membrane that had previously resembled a ball of cotton suddenly changed.
Like a spring compressed to its limit, it bounces back violently as soon as it gets a chance.
He felt an overwhelming force surge towards him, and since he had just used up almost all his strength, he couldn't withstand it. With a "poof," he coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground like a broken sandbag.
He struggled to get up, but after struggling for a long time, he still couldn't get up. Instead, he convulsed all over and kept spitting out blood foam, which even contained some fragments of internal organs.
Zuan was incredibly surprised. What was the meaning behind her move? It was both beautiful and powerful.
At this moment, the man holding the gold and silver rings and the red-tasseled spear hurriedly came to his companion's side. The man with the red-tasseled spear half-squatted down and quickly checked his condition:
"At least 60% of the bones in his body are broken!"
"Internal organs were also damaged."
"Even if they are saved, they probably won't be able to return to their peak condition."
The golden and silver rings' pupils contracted as they stared intently at Yun Yuqing: "You little bitch, what vicious methods you have."
Yun Yuqing snorted: "It's all your fault, your companion brought this upon himself. The power of this talisman is to reflect. The extent of the counterattack he suffered depends entirely on how much force he used to attack. If he hadn't been so ruthless, how could he have injured himself like this?"
Zuan secretly admired her, never expecting it to be a skill like "using their own methods against them." Why are all my confidantes so outstanding?
"A runemaster?" the other man with the red-tasseled spear asked, frowning.
The atmosphere among the group immediately became solemn. It should be known that there are many cultivators in this world, but rune masters are extremely rare. In the army, weapons, armor and military formations all require rune masters to inscribe formations for them; the imperial palace and the residences of princes and nobles all have defensive formations set up by rune masters. The higher the level, the more it reflects the status and position of the owner.
Low-level rune masters are one thing, but high-level rune masters are not like other cultivators who can be mass-produced. They are mainly concentrated in the National Royal Academy and are treated like treasures. They are strategic resources publicly recognized by the state, so much so that those guys are arrogant and sometimes don't even give the court any face.
The woman in front of me just so easily formed runes and severely injured a seventh-rank expert, so she is obviously a high-level rune master.
But aren't all the rune masters in the National Academy old men? Is there such a beautiful and vibrant woman among them?
The man with the gold and silver rings also changed his attitude, speaking in a gentler tone: "Master, we have no prior grudges against each other. Let's just let this matter drop. We won't pursue the matter of you injuring our companion, and you..."
He was speaking when he suddenly raised his hand, and the two bracelets, one gold and one silver, swiftly attacked Yun Yuqing.
Previously, he clearly only had two rings in his hand, but in this instant, those two rings split into countless gold and silver rings, which appeared almost instantly at Yun Yuqing's vital points on both sides.
Zuan almost opened his eyes in anger and cursed loudly. This guy was too shameless. He would agree to the terms on the surface, and then take advantage of your distraction to launch a sneak attack.
Fortunately, Yun Yuqing managed to leap to the side and escape in the nick of time.
The countless gold and silver rings continued to pursue her like maggots clinging to her bones. So many gold and silver rings overlapped together, just like two long yellow and white snakes.
They even sent out many "small snakes" in advance to wait in various places where the other party was most likely to land and use their strength, forming a net that stretched out towards her.
But to everyone's surprise, Yun Yuqing didn't land at all. Instead, she lightly touched the air with her toes, and shimmering runes appeared under her feet. She walked in mid-air with graceful movements, like a fairy emerging from the water.
Seeing that his attack and sneak assault were ineffective, the man with the gold and silver rings flicked his wrist, and countless afterimage rings flew back to his wrist, eventually transforming back into two bracelets.
The man with the red-tasseled spear was both shocked and furious: "Are you crazy? You've offended a runemaster?"
The man with the gold and silver rings looked grim: "Do we have any other choice now? If we can't kill her to silence her, none of us will survive."
The man with the red-tasseled spear sighed, "Fine, it's all or nothing. Let's all charge in!"
The words had barely left his mouth when a flash of cold light appeared first, followed by a spear thrust out like a dragon!
