Completely stunned everyone present.

That Jade Liquid Great Elder who had lorded over the Seven Counties for decades had failed to withstand even a single move. With one casual grab, he had been lifted into the air like a captive?!
"This level of strength is simply horrifying beyond belief!"

The Great Elder struggled to raise his eyes. A trace of venom and mockery flashed through his cloudy pupils as he gave a hoarse, cold laugh.
"Heh heh, this old man advises you not to waste—"
Bang!!
Zhang Chu struck the Great Elder's head with a backhanded palm. Crimson blood mist instantly sprayed backward.

If they were useless, it was enough for them to die.
