"What's going on!?" Wang Yueheng narrowed his eyes, and the hand holding the pill paused. Mind-Control Worms were expensive and rare; if Lin Hui had not been valuable enough, he would not have taken one out to control him.
Most crucially, to control someone with a Mind-Control Worm, the target had to be unable to move and stripped of all power to resist.
If he accidentally got one killed without controlling the man, he would suffer a huge loss.
But what Wang Yueheng had not expected was that a mere Internal-Force Martial Artist could still have some trump card to resist the control of superior Void Force.
"Among Internal Force users, only Zhou Tian can contend against Void Force. Could it be..." Wang Yueheng looked around suspiciously, wondering whether a concealed Zhou Tian expert had arrived nearby.
But he had moved extremely quickly this time, personally rushing over the instant he received the news.
It was unlikely anyone from the other factions could have been faster than him. After all, he had obtained firsthand intelligence directly from the Hundred Flowers Sect.
"Could it be that the Hundred Flowers Sect has spies from another great lineage!? The Liu Family!?"
Wang Yueheng's heart tightened.
He worried that once he released the Mind-Control Worm, a hidden expert would immediately destroy it.
"Or else..." He put away the Mind-Control Worm, a vicious glint flashing through his eyes. "Cripple him outright!"
At once, his Void Force surged. The immense invisible power instantly solidified and stopped spinning, transforming into a new cubic seal that came crashing down upon Lin Hui's head.
And at the instant the Void Force descended.
Lin Hui, who should have been frozen in place, made the sword in his hand tremble.
Hummm...
A thread of barely audible sound spread from his side
