The golden eye lit up, and the cone-shaped ripple reappeared.
But this time, it was far stronger, far faster, far more ruthless than before. There was simply no time to react, no possibility of dodging, no room to resist.
Lightning flashed. Shi Tiexin leaped forward to rescue them, risking his life to block the attack. But before that cone-shaped mental ripple, Shi Tiexin—normally peerless in speed—moved as slowly as a sloth. He did not even qualify to see the attack's trajectory clearly before the ripple brushed past him and shot straight toward Shi Yuwei.
Only one person had time to step forward. It was Chu Feiyan.
