Bang!
The throne shattered with the impact and the king smashed hard against one of the hall pillars, breaking it around the middle. His body continued to roll for some more meters, stopping at a remote corner.
Qiao Duyi suddenly appeared beside him, with his fists shining with a golden hue.
The king was a Mana Perception peak-stage Realm cultivator and he would never be able to resist a hit from a practitioner like Qiao Duyi, one of the Eight Lion Guardians.
The Eight Lion Guardians were a powerful group responsible for protecting and doing important missions for the Lion's Pride Golden Palace. They were just like the Twelve Shadows; people that the Wu Martial Kingdom couldn't afford to offend. Other than the Eight Lion Guardians, the Lion's Pride Golden Palace had two Profound Mana Golden Lions as tamed beasts, under their command.
Cough! Cough! Cough!
