Sheng An held the dark figure tightly, her voice soft:
"Did you think I was dead?"
The one truly facing off against the Time Otherkind had always been Sheng An. She had remained quiet, but she had never been there merely for show.
The superpower within her had all but run dry, especially after she had used it once.
But she was still time.
She gripped the dark figure's wrist. She could neither use her own superpower nor restrain the figure's power, and its undying body meant she could not kill it, either.
But the figure could not subject her to time, either. If it wanted to travel through time, it would have to take her along!
They had already realized this when they discovered Wu Buyu could not read Sheng An's mind. True, she could not use her superpower, but her level and the concentration of special factor within her remained.
When the Time Otherkind's time collided with hers, Sheng An might not fall under its temporal control.
Her first attack just now had confirmed it.
If this creature had not possessed an undying body, Sheng An's strike would have killed it.
The dark figure stood there, enduring attack after attack from Wu Buyu and the others.
Li Xin and the others had changed their approach, too.
Can't kill you?
Fine, then I'll pound you flat!
Every attack they made now aimed to turn the dark figure into a puddle of mush.
The dark figure stared at Sheng An's hand, growing increasingly agitated.
It seemed unwilling to take Sheng An through time, so it remained where it was without moving again.
A moment later, the dark figure calmed down and gave a mocking laugh. "Restraining me? So what..."
The dark figure murmured, "Don't you hear that sound?"
Sheng An
