1309: Thoughts of Retreat

Thoughts of Retreat

"You're the one who has been spouting nonsense!" With this declaration, Qiao Mu epitomized the ideal of angering someone to death without taking responsibility for it. Subsequently, she launched off Qingluan's back with the tip of her foot.0

She sprung into the sky and flung out 18 sparkling six-cornered snowflakes.

Once the snowflakes flew to the Six-Winged Goshawk, they exploded instantly.

An enormous amount of spiritual energy gushed out in the blink of an eye, nearly knocking the four people off the goshawk's back.

This included that elder who had been closing his eyes to rest—Pundit Zhao.

He abruptly opened his keen, aged eyes and stared coldly at Qiao Mu with a hint of disbelief. "Water spirit."

Not only could this little fellow before his eyes, a weakling from the Lower Star Domain, control the water spirit, she could do it so adeptly: condensing ice from water and melting ice into snow?

Only those great spiritual cultivators could possess such capability in controlling the water spirit, and even they might not have such talent in freely switching between states of matter.

It was impossible for this girl to be from a small, normal clan in the Lower Star Domain!

"Who are you!"

However, Qiao Mu flung her vine whip at the elder in answer.

"Go ask on your way to the Yellow Springs[1]." Qiao Mu narrowed her eyes as she swiftly swiped out a ferule from empty space. After she quickly encased the ferule with wood spiritual energy, which gave it a lustrous green shimmer, she smacked the Six-Winged Goshawk's head with it.

The onlookers beneath them gave a shudder.

Savage! Too savage!

This was their young crown prince consort!

Once you became the young crown prince consort's enemy, she, who had taken good care of her teammates during the entire journey, would just attack without bothering to speak any superfluous words!

"Wood spirit!?" The elder's eyelid jerked, and he hastily threw out a spiritual energy defensive barrier that encapsulated everyone on the goshawk's back.

*Boom!!* Unable to stabilize itself from the immense energy fluctuations, the Six-Winged Goshawk plummeted toward the ground.

Upon seeing this, Qingluan, who had coordinated well as an assist, immediately whirled over and sprayed out the freezing ice that it had charged up for a long time at the Six-Winged Goshawk's skull.

"Shriek!!" Although the Six-Winged Goshawk was able to dodge several icicles, it couldn't dodge all of them.

Qingluan's combat prowess was not something it, a tiny goshawk, could resist. However, a goshawk's combat prowess was nothing to sneeze at either.

But as the saying went: comparisons were odious. Ultimately, the Six-Winged Goshawk was only a high-ranked mystic beast.

It had no chance of victory against a spiritual beast, let alone the heavenly bird Qingluan.

Two icicles skewered the Six-Winged Goshawk through from its head to its wings, causing it to plummet straight to the ground.

Qiao Mu looked down icily at them from above as Qingluan spiraled in the sky.

"Cough, cough. Cough." Guan Yiying choked on the dust, her eyes revealing a look of disbelief.

The little lass she originally thought she could deal with using a single finger actually controlled the water spirit and the wood spirit?

Were their eyes playing tricks on them?

"Who are you exactly." Slight alarm flitted across Guan Yiying's eyes, and she was even having thoughts of retreat.

They were reckless this time for coming here and humiliating themselves without finding out about the situation.

But even if they wanted to beat a retreat, it was dependent on whether the other party was willing to let them leave!

Pundit Li's aged eyes narrowed incisively. "Was it you who killed Pundit Li and Gong Yang inside the Mystic Beast Forest?"

The life lantern miniatures that Pundit Li and Gong Yang transmitted back were extremely blurred. It seemed that both of them were inside the thick smoke from a firearms explosion.
