After the violent trembling, the sky began to brighten again, and the black aura dissipated along with it.
People could see that though Yu Sha appeared uninjured, she was currently half-kneeling in midair, her appearance looking somewhat wretched.
But when they looked at Linghu Hongfei, not only was he completely unharmed, but the Haotian Mirror emitting white light still hovered before him.
However, Yu Sha's sky-obscuring black aura had already dissipated between heaven and earth.
Who was stronger and who was weaker between the two had already become clear.
"As expected of the Taboo Haotian Mirror — its power truly lives up to its reputation."
"It's too powerful — it actually shattered that kind of force with a single strike. Taboo martial techniques really are formidable."
People had clearly felt the might of Yu Sha's earlier attack.
It carried an aura so fearsome that even many of the veteran figures present, even peak Venerables, felt a chill from it.
Yet that very attack was blasted apart by Linghu Hongfei's Haotian Mirror.
This truly proved the might of the Taboo Haotian Mirror.
Hearing such praise, not only was Linghu Hongfei pleased with himself —
even Linghu Zhishi, lofty and supreme as the current strongest expert of the Ancestral Martial Star Domain, wore a triumphant smile on his face.
After all, the Taboo Haotian Mirror represented not only Linghu Hongfei but also the Linghu Heavenly Clan.
"I told you — you've lost."
"Do you believe it now?"
Linghu Hongfei gazed at the half-kneeling Yu Sha and repeated what he had said before.
"Damn it."
At that moment, Yu Sha gritted her teeth, trying to stand up.
But despite her body appearing uninjured on the surface, she struggled even to rise.
This made people realize that Yu Sha's injuries were actually quite severe — it was not merely her body that was hurt, but rather her very soul.
Yu Sha was truly gravely injured, though she had managed to struggle to her feet.
Yet after standing, she could barely keep her balance.
Just as Yu Sha was about to collapse, a powerful hand suddenly grabbed her arm and steadied her.
It was Chu Feng. Chu Feng now stood before Yu Sha.
Not only did he stand in front of Yu Sha, but confidence had returned to his face.
"Let go of me — I'll deal with him."
Yu Sha struggled fiercely, and through her struggle, Chu Feng could feel her rage.
"Girl, that's enough."
"Leave the rest to me."
Chu Feng said to Yu Sha.
Hearing this, Yu Sha paused for a moment.
But for reasons she couldn't explain, when she looked at Chu Feng now, her turbulent heart actually calmed considerably.
So after a moment's hesitation, she glanced at the already-opened Spirit World Gate behind Chu Feng, and with his support, she slowly made her way forward, step by step, until she finally passed through the Spirit World Gate.
Whoosh—
Once Yu Sha had entered the Spirit World Gate, Chu Feng let out a long breath of relief.
That was close — far too close.
Moments ago, the power of his bloodline had launched an assault on the Divine Tree Seed, causing Chu Feng's cultivation to regress.
Although Chu Feng had concealed the change in his cultivation and gone unnoticed, he himself knew full well that in that state, he stood no chance against Linghu Hongfei.
But most fortunately, the bloodline power had, just now, unexpectedly ceased its assault on the Divine Tree Seed, restoring Chu Feng's cultivation.
Had his cultivation not recovered at this moment, Chu Feng would still have been no match for Linghu Hongfei.
And with Yu Sha's temperament, even if she lacked the strength to stand, she would still have fought Linghu Hongfei.
Chu Feng knew all too well what that outcome would be.
Linghu Hongfei, that beast, would never show mercy just because Yu Sha was a woman.
