You'd Be Better at Suppressing the Baleful Aura!
On the blood-stained ground, the members of the Treasure Hoarders and the Fatui slowly walked over.
"Sir, if you help us get rid of this demon, our Treasure Hoarders is willing to serve you."
One of the leaders of the Treasure Hoarders spoke respectfully to Hammer Bro of the Fatui.
"Um."
Hammer Bro nodded in relief.
Although the Treasure Hoarders wasn't particularly skilled, their sheer numbers made up for it.
They're perfect for acting as our eyes and ears.
We, the Fatui, just suffered a crushing defeat at Liyue Harbor; in fact, Liyue's inquiries have been sent to Snezhnaya. Snezhnaya can hardly provide much support to their base here, so they now need to fend for themselves.
Hammer Bro led his men slowly over.
Their eyes were fixed on Shenhe.
"This person seems very strong."
Hammer Bro did not rashly send anyone forward.
Be careful, you must be careful.
This is what their leader, Tartaglia, kept reminding them of after he returned.
"You guys go and test the waters first."
"Hammer Bro said to the members of the Treasure Hoarders."
"Grown ups..."
Seeing the hesitant members of the Treasure Hoarders, Hammer Bro shouted sternly, "Why aren't you going yet!"
Circumstances are more powerful than people.
Several members of the Treasure Hoarders drew daggers from their waists and charged at Shenhe.
Seeing these people rushing towards them,
Shenhe frowned.
I've suppressed myself to the extreme, but I want to suppress it a little more.
She sprinted forward to the Treasure Hoarders and swung her fist, giving one of them a 'light' punch.
The Treasure Hoarders immediately flew more than ten meters away.
He collapsed to the ground, temporarily losing his fighting ability.
The Treasure Hoarders was horrified when they saw this.
Their gaze fell on Hammer Bro.
Brother, we can't handle this situation.
It's up to you now.
At this moment, even Hammer Bro felt his scalp tingle.
The woman in front of me looks thin and frail, but she must be much stronger than me.
How do we fight this?
"Us..."
He swallowed hard, intending to leave.
As for the agreement?
What agreement?
We, the Fatui, are just out for a stroll. Don't come here trying to scam us, you Treasure Hoarders!
Hammer Bro of the Treasure Hoarders on the shoulder and prepared to leave.
They've slipped away, they've slipped away.
"Us..."
Just as they were about to leave, Hammer Bro discovered something interesting.
The girl was frowning, as if she was trying to hold on.
Is she already at her last gasp?
Upon thinking of this, Hammer Bro immediately perked up.
Maybe,
It's not that we can't fight?
"Come on, you guys and the Treasure Hoarders, come at us together."
He commanded the few Fatui and members of the Treasure Hoarders behind him to charge.
A group of people rushed forward again and surrounded Shenhe.
Shenhe frowned as he looked at the people rushing towards him.
Slightly clench your fists.
"Why..."
Shenhe took out a handful of talismans from his waist.
"Imperial Edict!"
She waved the talisman around herself once.
Freeze!
The bodies of the Fatui and the Treasure Hoarders who rushed forward were all frozen in place.
Shenhe threw another punch, shattering the ice shards.
These people were knocked to the ground again.
"Ah..."
"Ah..."
"Ah..."
They lay on the ground groaning.
At this moment, Shenhe He felt that his will had reached its limit.
Real,
I can't hold on any longer.
Don't lay a hand on me again.
I really can't control myself anymore.
Just then, Hammer Bro saw Shenhe's current state.
He was secretly delighted.
Have we finally reached our limit?
This victory still belongs to us, the Fatui.
For Her Majesty the Tsaritsa!
He raised his hammer, ready to smash it down on Shenhe's back.
Shenhe caught a glimpse of Hammer Bro's attack out of the corner of his eye.
The suppressed malevolent energy could no longer be contained.
The red rope behind his head snapped instantly.
His entire aura changed instantly before Hammer Bro's attack arrived.
The malevolent energy began to gather.
Sensing this aura, Hammer Bro immediately put his hammer away.
"We can say this is a misunderstanding."
He said it with a mocking tone.
Hammer Bro realized he was wrong.
This woman wasn't trying to push herself to the brink; she was simply suppressing her murderous intent. But now, he had successfully provoked her to unleash her full killing intent.
Lord Tsuko!
I was wrong!
He instinctively wanted to back away.
But it was too late.
Shenhe's eyes were cold as he approached Hammer Bro in the next second.
He swung his fist and punched him.
Hammer Bro gritted his teeth and crossed his arms, trying to rely on his own elemental power and the hardness of his armor to resist.
But,
This is nowhere near as good as Shenhe's punches.
One strike,
Armor fragments.
Hammer Bro felt a jolt in his body, followed by a gust of cold wind.
Upon closer inspection,
His armor was smashed to pieces.
Shenhe remained silent.
He still raised his fist, ready to strike Hammer Bro a second time.
The second punch landed.
He was about to die.
Your Majesty, I may no longer be able to serve you.
Hammer Bro closed his eyes and waited to die.
At this time,
He felt a pulling force coming from his waist.
Then his body suddenly moved backward.
It landed on the ground at high speed.
Thank you.
Hammer Bro looked at the two people who had saved him and kept expressing his gratitude.
However, he also found it somewhat strange.
The beautiful, mature woman in front of me, with her short hair and an iron box behind her, seemed out of place.
Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his leg.
He couldn't help but kneel down.
His body suddenly became shorter.
Silently, Bai Ye put her Handheld Crossbow away.
"This guy actually tried to hurt Sister Shenhe, we absolutely cannot forgive him."
He began to explain to the Cloud Retainer was looking at him.
"Yes." Cloud Retainer nodded.
"You can handle this guy when the time comes. I just don't want Shenhe to commit any murders."
Killing can be addictive for someone whose malevolent energy has accumulated.
"I know."
With Bai Ye hand, a net appeared, binding Hammer Bro completely.
Then he looked at Shenhe was clearly out of control at this moment.
"True Lord, what should we do next?"
The two of them rushed over as fast as they could after receiving the news, but it seemed they were still a step too late.
At this moment, Shenhe was filled with murderous aura, and his eyes seemed to be out of control.
Even with Cloud Retainer present, she only hesitated for a moment.
Looking at the others lying on the ground, she seemed ready to launch another attack.
"This situation is not good; the red string has broken."
Cloud Retainer held his chin.
"It seems we must find something else to suppress Shenhe's malevolent aura."
"Anything else? Did you bring it with you, True Lord?"
"No." Cloud Retainer shook his head.
"Then what should we do?"
Both of them had a headache.
He scratched his Bai Ye, trying to think of a solution.
Then,
He then saw Cloud Retainer looking down at him.
His eyes lit up with surprise.
"True Lord, what are you going to do?"
"You seem capable, and I estimate you're much stronger than that red rope."
"What!?"
