A little girl no older than five, she was just a tiny bundle when sitting.
Yet, she maintained a stern little face, her chubby hands forming complex hand seals, a talisman clutched between her fingers.
Her appearance was nothing short of adorable, inspiring genuine smiles from anyone who saw her.
However, Lou Jusheng, at this moment, couldn't manage a smile at all.
For he felt a terrifying fluctuation of spiritual energy from that chubby, fair, little hand!
It was a power he absolutely could not resist!
Lou Jusheng's expression shifted from surprised shock to a terror that made his liver and gall tremble.
The Maybach was directly blown to smithereens under the powerful attack!
Lou Jusheng used all his life-saving means, barely managing to defend against Jian Sheng's strike, and that was only to the extent of not dying.
The blood flowing from his mouth proved he had already suffered severe internal injuries.
Seeing Jian Sheng conjure another talisman out of thin air between her fingers, Lou Jusheng's eyes were about to split.
"You're a cultivator!!!"
And a cultivator with spatial treasures and precious talismans capable of attacks comparable to a Golden Core!
How was this possible!
"So your capture was just a scheme! Your ultimate goal was to cut off all our escape routes and eliminate future trouble?!"
Jian Sheng paused her movements, shaking her little head and saying very earnestly.
"Being captured was real; back then, due to the car accident, I truly had no spiritual energy at all."
"It's just that you wanted to take me abroad. Knowing you had contacts overseas, I could only play along with your plan."
Lou Jusheng threw his head back and laughed, but his laughter turned into a violent cough as the blood from his throat choked him. He paid it no mind.
"Hahahaha, I never imagined that I, Lou Jusheng, would fall into the hands of a little brat like you!"
"Who is your master? Tell me, and let me die a swift death!"
Jian Sheng shook her head, "I don't have a master."
The little girl's voice was soft and sweet, her clear eyes showing no sign of lying.
Her chubby little hand launched the talisman in her grasp. Unlike the previous talisman, this one was for sealing.
Sealing away all spiritual energy within a cultivator.
"Grandpa Lou, I'm sorry."
Along the way, Lou Jusheng's kind storytelling, his buying her snacks, toys, and new clothes, flashed through her mind.
But these brief memories were quickly replaced by the chilling stories Lou Jusheng had told, and the cruel truths revealed when Lou Jusheng and Cheng Zhixian exposed each other's secrets.
Jian Sheng's gem-like eyes were filled with determination. She placed her palm on Lou Jusheng's Dantian, gently channeling her spiritual energy.
Lou Jusheng let out a pained howl, his eyes about to burst.
"You vile creature! How dare you cripple my cultivation!"
Jian Sheng pursed her lips, her spiritual energy continuing to rampage within Lou Jusheng's body.
Beyond his Dantian, his meridians were also cracking under the impact of the spiritual energy.
Lou Jusheng stared intently at Jian Sheng, filled with unwillingness and resentment.
As if to say, even if I die, I will not let you off as a ghost!
Jian Sheng's gaze dimmed slightly. She had to deal with Lou Jusheng quickly before she could go and help the people who came for her without worry.
Just then, a shout interrupted her actions.
"Miss Jian Sheng! Please wait a moment!"
Jian Sheng's movements froze, and she looked at the buzz-cut man running over.
After looking up, he realized that a crowd had already gathered in the distance, but due to the explosion of the vehicles, no one dared to approach.
The lean man with the buzz cut still had shock lingering in his eyes. Fearing that his slow explanation would cause the little girl to misunderstand, he quickly shouted:
"I was sent by Young Master Qi Suibai!"
"He has been observing remotely, waiting for an opportunity to rescue you!"
"Just now, Young Master Qi gave his latest instructions, and he told me to take over Lou Jusheng."
"Young Master Qi said he doesn't want your hands stained with blood!"
As he spoke these words, the buzz-cut man himself found it unbelievable.
Someone capable of creating such a terrifying explosion through uncanny means, and surviving it, to counterattack Lou Jusheng – could they be afraid of killing?
Even if the person in front of him was just a doll-like little girl!
But looking at Lou Jusheng, who was howling under her palm, it was clear that beneath the little girl's angelic exterior lay a devil!
Sensing her fear, Jian Sheng lowered her eyes and softly said, "Oh."
"Then he's yours. I'll go up and check first."
Lou Jusheng had already been crippled by her, so there was no need to worry about him harming ordinary people.
She was more concerned now that her delay here might cause the people looking for her to be killed by Cheng Zhixian.
After handing Lou Jusheng over to the buzz-cut man, Jian Sheng quickly ran towards the hotel.
However, the surroundings were already crowded with foreigners with blonde hair and blue eyes. Seeing her approach, they not only showed no fear but erupted in excited cheers.
Pushing through these people to enter the hotel, even taking the elevator would take quite some time.
With Cheng Zhixian's cultivation, dealing with an ordinary person, he could have killed them countless times by now.
Jian Sheng directly called out to the buzz-cut man, "Have Xiao Bai help me deal with the aftermath here."
With that, she took out a flying artifact from her spatial storage, stepped onto it, and then applied a concealment talisman to herself.
Faintly, the buzz-cut man seemed to see the residual image of the little girl soaring into the sky.
He stared dumbfoundedly, and after a long while, he dazedly uttered a single word.
"Yes."
Jian Sheng, standing on the flying artifact, sensed Cheng Zhixian's presence.
Then, she flew directly to the top floor of the hotel, crashed through one of the glass windows, and rushed into the room inside.
As soon as she entered, she saw the horrific scene within.
The young blonde man lay sprawled on the luxurious carpet, his eyes bulging, his limbs hanging limply.
Blood, from where it originated, was unknown, had soaked through the blonde man's clothes and the carpet on the floor into a vibrant red.
The room was filled with a pungent smell of blood, and Jian Sheng instinctively covered her mouth with her little hand and gagged.
Cheng Zhixian looked in the direction of the window, his eyes narrowing.
Jian Sheng still had an invisibility talisman, produced by Fu Jue, the peak master of the Formation Talisman Peak in the cultivation world, affixed to her. With Cheng Zhixian's cultivation, he couldn't see through the talisman's effect.
However, Jian Sheng's involuntary gagging sound let Cheng Zhixian know her location.
Cheng Zhixian said solemnly, "Which esteemed Daoist friend? Please reveal yourself!"
While asking, he was already prepared for attack and defense.
Seeing the tragic state of the blonde man on the ground, Jian Sheng directly took out a pile of talismans from her spatial storage, activated them, and hurled them all at Cheng Zhixian.
A torrent of spells, covering the sky and earth, surged towards Cheng Zhixian. The defensive spells he had hastily erected proved completely useless.
Under this countless barrage of spells, Cheng Zhixian didn't even leave a trace of ash.
The blonde man's vacant eyes twitched twice, also startled by the scene.
The monster he thought of, was easily killed by another, invisible monster?
Jian Sheng ran quickly to the blonde man's side and rummaged through a pile of small medicine bottles taken from her spatial storage.
As she searched, she anxiously asked, "How are you? Can you still speak?"
The bloodshot eyes of the blonde man widened even further.
The new invisible monster spoke with the voice of a little girl?
Were all monsters these days impersonating old people or children?
