Deathly silence!
At that moment, the entire world fell into a deathly silence!
Whether they were the battle-hardened fighters inside the abandoned steel factory.
Or the members of the Eight Great Clans and the Military Headquarters bigwigs watching through their screens.
Everyone's mind went blank.
What had they just seen?
A god!
A living man who had descended like a god, instantly killed the second-ranked fighter on the [Dark List] with a flick of his fingers, unlocked the [Second Stage of the Gene Lock], and wielded [National Authority Level] power!
Yet a mysterious woman who had suddenly appeared had knocked him down into the mortal realm with a single glance!
And severed his arm with one slash!
How was this possible?!
This was no longer a battle!
It was an attack from a higher dimension!
The most merciless, unreasonable domination at the very level of the rules themselves!
"Hiss-!"
After who knew how long, sharp gasps rang out one after another.
"That woman... who on earth is she?!"
"Illuminating All Things... wherever her gaze falls, all powers fall silent... that's the legendary power of the secluded Ning family!"
"The Ning family? The family that hasn't appeared in the world for a hundred years?!"
"Could she be... Ning Hongye?!"
Inside the estates of the Eight Great Clans, some old monsters privy to countless secrets cried out in disbelief!
For the first time, their faces showed a terror far greater than when they had seen the Sun King!
The Ning family!
It was a family that stood above the Eight Great Clans, a family truly worthy of myth!
And to those old men, the very name Ning Hongye was taboo!
Because from the moment she was born, she had been hailed as a prodigy seen only once in five hundred years!
