"You..."
Yuan Jue flew into a rage. "Miss Wan, are you threatening me? Do you know what doing this means?"
"Yuan Jue, cut the nonsense. Threat or not, you only need to do as I say!"
"Otherwise, I'll return to Queen City right now!"
Yuan Jue was utterly dumbfounded, his face full of fury yet completely helpless.
"Enough!"
"For idiots like this, just suppress them!"
"Why keep them around?"
At that moment, Li Yun spoke.
The moment he spoke, things escalated.
Cloud Cliff Saintess immediately attacked Miss Wan and Old Madam Wang. A powerful Divine Ability descended on the spot. Yuan Jue instinctively tried to stop her, but he simply could not.
Before he could fully make a move, he was blasted away by Cloud Cliff Saintess's divine might.
A wondrous palm seal descended.
Miss Wan and Old Madam Wang were instantly pinned beneath it. Miss Wan was somewhat better off; Cloud Cliff Saintess saw that she seemed to have some backing and intended to question her further, so she did not strike to kill.
Old Madam Wang, however, was doomed.
Under Cloud Cliff Saintess's Divine Ability, she was turned into a cloud of blood mist on the spot.
Dead beyond all doubt!
"Gasp... peak Divine Martial Realm..."
"Wait, don't kill her..."
Yuan Jue was horrified beyond measure and hurriedly shouted.
"Bastard..."
"You lowly maid, you actually dare attack! You dare kill Old Madam Wang! You are challenging the dignity of Queen City—you are courting death..."
Though already suppressed beneath the palm seal, Miss Wan showed not the slightest fear and continued to scream arrogantly.
The killing intent in Cloud Cliff Saintess's eyes grew so dense it was almost tangible.
She turned back to glance at Li Yun, clearly seeking his opinion on whether she should kill this utterly clueless
