At Zhang Tie's words, Bai Suxian's eyes finally revealed a flash of alarm. She turned to look around. "You mean...?"
"An enclosed space, metal floors and walls, everything difficult to damage, and sculptures resembling puppet battle dolls. If this place were sealed off, think about what the consequences would be."
"You think these sculptures are puppet battle dolls too?" Bai Suxian pointed at the terrifying winged serpent stretching over a hundred meters along the wall beside them and asked in surprise, seemingly unable to believe it. As she spoke, she flicked a finger, and a stream of Battle Qi shot from her fingertip, striking the serpent's head.
Apart from a dull sound, Bai Suxian's attack left only a shallow fingerprint on the serpent's head.
