Unexpectedly, the woman did not engage Huai Nanzi in direct combat but instead maneuvered her body strangely in mid-air, evading Huai Nanzi's blow with the ease of a fish swimming in water. Simultaneously, she kicked out, striking Huai Nanzi in the ribs.
With a shriek of pain, Huai Nanzi dropped precipitously from the air, slamming hard onto the floor of the hall. His face turned ghastly pale; wrinkles lined his face in an instant, and he doubled over in pain, unable to even groan, resembling a cooked shrimp.
The woman, unfazed by her successful attack, narrowed her distance from the man in black within the blink of an eye, now only two meters away.
Surprise finally flickered in the eyes of the man in black. He tossed Xiao Qiang aside and quickly formed a sword spell with his fingers. Three flying swords, slithering like snakes, clashed with the woman.
