This Hidden Power had quite a history.
Sixty years ago, Qiu Hanyan accomplished a great deed by escorting an important figure to the Supreme One Heavenly Palace.
At the time, she received a reward from another Heavenly Commissioner of the Supreme One Heavenly Palace. That reward was this Hidden Power.
Most Hidden Powers only took effect when one was trying to save one's life, but Qiu Hanyan had activated it on her own initiative this time!
The instant the Hidden Power activated, Qiu Hanyan's soft voice reached the ears of every Academy Disciple. "Don't... resist..."
With a single squeeze of her hand, she pulled all the Academy Disciples nearby toward her.
Luo Zheng also felt that invisible force. His entire body flew sideways toward Qiu Hanyan, and when he was still fifteen meters away from her, the Hidden Power above her head suddenly split open.
"Whoosh..."
After leaving Qiu Hanyan, the Hidden Power unfolded like an umbrella, enveloping Qiu Hanyan, Qiu Shengshui, and the Academy Disciples within it.
Qiu Junshan watched this scene and sneered coldly. "Childish! You think this thing can stop me?"
With that, he abruptly pointed a finger at the "umbrella."
"Swish!"
A colossal sword shadow descended through the air, stabbing toward the Hidden Power.
Qiu Hanyan looked up at the ever-approaching sword shadow, her expression unchanged.
"Boom!"
As a deafening roar rang out, dazzling light blotted out the sky and earth.
When the light faded, the "umbrella" had barely moved.
A trace of mockery surfaced between her brows, and she immediately said, "This is the Qian Wu Umbrella bestowed by Lord Hechi. How could you possibly break through a Hidden Power like this?"
"Lord Hechi..." Qiu Junshan's expression tightened slightly when he heard those words.
Lord Hechi was a figure as renowned as Qiu Yinhe within
