Pfft!
As soon as the fist mark appeared, the elder woman from the Eternal Mountains spat blood and was flung backward, barely able to stay aloft in the air.
However, she was far too panicked to care about the pain in her body. Without hesitation, she turned and fled, using every secret technique she knew, even those that would cause great harm to her.
Although her body had just taken a heavy blow and she had not died, she could still feel the power that surpassed that of a celestial god!
That person just now—it was really the War Goddess!
If not for the War Goddess viewing her as nothing more than an insignificant ant and not being intent on killing her, she would have been annihilated with just a glance!
As the elder from the Eternal Mountains fled in terror, the other mages who had just arrived above the imperial capital looked at her in confusion.
She had been the most eager to act earlier, so why was she now retreating so quickly?
