The ghoul woman simply put forward her palm as she caught the man's metal first before it could strike her face. And to Damien's astonishment, her dainty hand managed to stop his heavy metal fist while only moving a single inch backward.
Seeing her stop an attack from a man twice her size and a level stronger than her just seemed a bit surreal.
And before he knew it, dark blue flames blazed from her palm, which began to heat up the man's metal fist, making it appear red hot.
"Argh!!" The man howled as he stumbled back while holding his wrist. It seemed like she actually managed to hurt him despite fortifying himself so well.
If one could see his face behind his mask, they would see his eyes shaking in shock. He was no ordinary cultivator and had practiced a special cultivation art that would allow him to deal with fire without letting it cause any serious injury to him.
