After Xia You finished speaking, she waved her hand before everyone's eyes. An Earth Element Spell shot forth, and the entire bandit stronghold was instantly razed to the ground.
The bandits were stunned by the scene before them. Some whose legs had gone weak simply collapsed onto the ground. Since the Second-in-Command had personally driven the carriage, he did not make quite such a spectacle of himself.
