The bald man coughed, and his chest suddenly bulged. He hopped to his feet and his beard glowed an even more fiery light.
However, just as he was about to attack, a pair of heavy double doors opened.
A woman with long legs and a river of flames for hair strolled in. She was dressed in a black military uniform and her lapel was adorned with countless achievements, so many that they seemed to overlap and form a complex array all on their own.
She swept a glance over the room and the bald man froze, no longer daring to reach for his ax. The aura of an Omniscient Sky God wasn't something they could ignore.
The gaze of the woman paused when she saw Ryu, and she frowned when she sensed the sparks of Lightning Chaos Qi in the surroundings.
Also… blue lightning? This was the first she had seen of such a thing. It was only Sovereign Lightning Chaos Qi, but it felt so much more powerful than that.
