Just as Rus Wang had expected, the Demon Empress had indeed been injured, but the wounds were not serious for her.
The Demon Empress touched the claw marks on her armor. Countless streams of blood that should have burst from her abdomen were wrapped in Soul Power.
Under the purple-gold orb's light, her wounds were forcibly healed. Rus Wang's earlier attack had indeed been lethal.
But that didn't mean that, as the ocean's undisputed ruler, she would die from a single desperate counterattack by her prey.
