Prince Tsuku helped Xi'ai up and asked,
"I-I'm fine... I just underestimated her strength."
Xi'ai barely managed to stand steady, but he felt awful... It was as though all his internal organs had been knocked out of place.
And that was while he was wearing this "invincible" suit of armor!
"It doesn't matter. Her fate won't change."
Prince Tsuku drew his weapon. Looking at the bound Fu Hua before him with an icy expression, he stabbed straight at her.
"What?"
When his weapon successfully pierced Fu Hua's body, he suddenly realized something was wrong. There was no sensation of hitting anything.
"Where are you looking?!"
Scarlet feathers appeared one after another, and Fu Hua's voice suddenly rang out behind him.
Prince Tsuku's expression shifted slightly, but he did not panic. He swung behind himself again, but Fu Hua was faster. In the next instant, her fist smashed into his face.
Prince Tsuku was sent flying by the punch.
"It's over! Hiyamaru, take them away first."
Fu Hua turned and called toward Princess Kaguya and the others.
"Yes, Big Sister!"
Amid Princess Kaguya and the others' puzzled gazes, a nine-tailed fire fox suddenly appeared beside them.
Fu Hua had summoned Hiyamaru from the very beginning and had her hide near Princess Kaguya and the others. Her main task was to protect them in case these people attacked Kaguya.
However, it seemed Fu Hua had worried too much. This group of Moon People did not seem intent on attacking Kaguya.
Perhaps they believed that once Fu Hua was taken down, Kaguya and the others would be utterly helpless!
After Hiyamaru appeared and heard Fu Hua's order... she did not hesitate. She directly curled the people beside her up with her massive tail, then turned and ran in the direction opposite Fu Hua.
