Just as his cry of alarm left his mouth, the Empress's phantom behind Tang Yurou had already dissipated into specks of light, merging into her body.
As a result, Tang Yurou's aura within her body climbed another notch and faintly surpassed Xu Ming, making her half a step stronger than him.
Including Tang Yurou's previous injuries, all were completely healed, her consciousness awakened, and her eyes abruptly opened, emitting a fierce cold gleam. She struck out with her hand towards Xu Ming…
"Boom!"
"Pfff…"
Xu Ming's complexion drastically changed; it was too late for him to dodge. Accompanied by the roaring sound, he was sent flying backward in the air, spitting out a Blood Arrow, clearly heavily wounded.
