This time, Zhao Shuning didn't let Mo Bai step in.
Anyway, she was already a fourth - rank spirit pharmacist. It was just the right time to test her skills and see the power of the magical tool condensed by a fourth - rank spirit pharmacist.
Under the effect of that magical tool, the bodies of the three people were shrinking at a visible speed.
But just at the last second before they were about to breathe their last.
"Ding~"
The protective shield of Zhao Shuning's magical tool was broken.
The thing she had been worried about finally happened. Ling Hui and Xu Mei were really cunning. They actually had a backup plan.
Following that, a group of spirit pharmacists, also at the fourth rank in spiritual arts, landed in the courtyard of the Ling family one after another.
Seeing this, Ling Hui and the others immediately crawled in front of them, but were kicked away.
"Sir, sirs, you've finally come."
"Ling Hui, don't forget your promise to our Nan family."
Ling Hui and Xu Mei nodded repeatedly.
"Sir, as long as you kill this little girl, all the assets of our Ling family will belong to the Nan family. From now on, we'll be the dogs raised by the Nan family. You tell us who to bite, and we'll bite."
It turned out that when Ling Xu was lying at the door watching earlier, he had sent a servant to secretly slip out of the back door to look for the Nan family. The Nan family was the ruler of Qingning. If they could come to rescue them, they could at least keep their lives.
Unexpectedly, they didn't die at the hands of Huang Sandong but almost died at the hands of a little girl.
The people who came this time were much more powerful.
When they faced Zhao Shuning, their eyes were full of disdain.
"Ling Hui, isn't your Ling Xu also a spirit pharmacist? How come he can't even deal with a little girl?"
Ling Xu endured the pain and supported himself with his hands and said, "Sir, this little girl is not ordinary. Earlier, Huang Sandong died at the hands of the young man behind her. That young man was following her orders."
"Huang Sandong is dead?"
"Yes, he's dead, and all his subordinates are dead too."
Huang Sandong was a fifth - rank spirit pharmacist. How could he die so easily?
Could this girl know some kind of sorcery?
"Are you from the Nan family?"
"You'd better know. Since you do, little girl, we won't make things difficult for you. You should know what to do. If you leave obediently, maybe our Nan family won't pursue this matter."
If these spirit pharmacists hadn't heard that Huang Sandong had died at Mo Bai's hands, they probably wouldn't have said that they wouldn't care if Zhao Shuning left. They might not even have let Zhao Shuning out of the door of the Ling family.
"Do you think I'll let you people out of the courtyard of the Ling family?"
Zhao Shuning's tone was teasing. The next moment, an extremely solid protective shield was formed above the courtyard.
"Mo Bai, strengthen this protective shield. None of them can get out. Do you understand?"
Mo Bai nodded.
He could understand Zhao Shuning's words.
"Little girl, you do have some skills, but you're too arrogant. We're from the Nan family. Not only can you not hurt us with your ability, but even if you're really lucky enough to hurt us, do you think the Nan family will let you go? Our family head will surely make it impossible for you to get by in the Eastern Swamp Wilderness."
"How's Nan Tianyuan?"
"What?"
The spirit pharmacists were stunned. How dare this little girl call their family head by name directly?
"By the way, Nan Feng's leg should still be unable to get out of bed, right?"
"Who on earth are you?"
Their young master's leg was injured south of the Huai River. The Nan family had always kept this matter very secret, for fear that the Wang family would find out and deprive Nan Feng of many benefits as an inner - sect disciple.
How did this little girl know such a confidential matter?
"I'm the one who broke your young master's leg."
It was so quiet. There was a long period of silence. Then the spirit pharmacists on the opposite side began to laugh loudly.
"Little girl, do you think we spirit pharmacists are just for show? You? At most, you're just a yellow - ranked fourth - rank spirit pharmacist. Do you think you can deal with our young master? It's really ridiculous."
"Really?"
Zhao Shuning clasped her hands.
In the enclosed space of the Ling family courtyard, thunderous sounds began to appear, and lightning flashed continuously.
"What's this? Is this the Frost - Condensing Finger? No, it's the Fire Fox Curse. It also seems a bit like the young master's Star - Falling Concealment."
"What on earth is going on?"
"She's not only a spirit pharmacist! She's also an alchemist! And her rank is not low."
The people on the opposite side immediately began to defend themselves. Compared with their previous expressions, their current ones had completely changed. Now they were careful and cautious, and tried their best to keep a distance from Zhao Shuning.
Could it be that what this little girl said earlier was true?
At this time, a finger stretched out from the space of the protective shield. There was a thick layer of frost on that finger.
The frost was shining with a sky - blue light.
Zhao Shuning was quite satisfied with this move. After advancing to the fourth - rank spirit pharmacist, the cooperation between her spiritual power and mental power had become stronger and more harmonious.
The huge finger was falling down.
The spirit pharmacists had no choice but to mobilize all their strength to form a new small protective shield.
The space was slowly distorting.
Under Zhao Shuning's powerful force, her Frost - Condensing Finger was directly pressing towards the protective shield of those people.
When the finger touched the protective shield of the spirit pharmacists, it began to make harsh crashing and scratching sounds.
Suddenly, sparks flew everywhere.
The spirit pharmacists inside the protective shield were dazzled for a moment and couldn't see anything around them.
"Now's the time."
Zhao Shuning smiled faintly.
Then her hand gestures began to change, forming new spiritual seals. Then she combined her right hand with her left hand, and the huge finger broke through all the protective shields created by those spirit pharmacists.
"Bang!"
The protective shield shattered.
The spirit pharmacists felt a sweet taste in their throats, and the smell of blood came.
"Puff!"
Those spirit pharmacists half - knelt on the ground, with blood in their mouths.
"You're not just a yellow - ranked one."
Zhao Shuning put her hands behind her back and said calmly, "I am a yellow - ranked one."
However, in her body, there was the Red Lotus Karma Fire left by her master. When she used her spiritual power and mental power, with the additional boost of the Red Lotus Karma Fire, she wouldn't be short of power like before.
Her master's Red Lotus Karma Fire was really powerful. It could not only protect herself but also have such an effect.
Zhao Shuning was just a little girl.
At this time, she slowly walked towards the spirit pharmacists, step by step. Each step was like a ghost messenger coming to claim lives.
"So scared?"
Zhao Shuning sneered.
Then she said, "You can go."
"What?"
The spirit pharmacists looked at Zhao Shuning in disbelief.
Was she not going to kill them?
"If I really killed you, then I would be no different from those bandits. Remember, the reason I killed Huang Sandong and the reason I'm going to kill these villains of the Ling family is simply because."
Zhao Shuning's voice rose a few decibels: "They deserve to die!"
