Seeing that the sound waves, like surging breakers, were about to engulf both her and Xu Taiping, Jiang Zhi summoned her Life-Bound Flying Sword with a ringing clang.
Boom...!!
But before she could strike, a tremendous collision rang out, and the sound waves formed by the ghost servant's belly rumbling actually burst apart one after another under the impact of Xu Taiping's fist force.
Jiang Zhi was utterly shocked:
"He blocked Ghost Servant Belly Drum's belly rumbling... with fist force alone?!"
But just then, the instant the sound waves shattered, Ghost Servant Belly Drum suddenly slammed all four arms against his great belly again.
Thump! Thump-thump-thump...!!
This time, Ghost Servant Belly Drum did not release rumbling sound waves the instant his great belly sounded. Instead, as though drawing breath, his belly inhaled with every strike.
Thump-thump-thump...!!
For a time, the belly-drumming boomed incessantly, yet no rumbling sound waves appeared.
Jiang Zhi's heart tightened at once:
Belly Drum must be gathering power, waiting for Xu Taiping to strike!
She had seen Belly Drum use this method to build up the killing power of his rumbling sound waves before.
So she immediately warned Xu Taiping:
"Taiping, he's building up the power of his belly rumbling!"
Xu Taiping, who had already accumulated enough fist force, gave a slight, expressionless nod. Then he drew a deep breath and said, his eyes filled with murderous intensity:
"Just as well. Otherwise, I feel this punch might kill him."
Jiang Zhi's heart gave a sudden tremor.
Then she heard Xu Taiping send a voice transmission across the distance to Blade Ghost and the others:
"Everyone, make absolutely sure you don't kill the ghost servants you're facing. Otherwise, not only will their fighting strength double again after they revive, but Yuyangzi behind them will probably grow far stronger
