Everyone was dumbstruck after hearing the ear-splitting thunder roar. They stared, astonished, at the hill-slope that was burnt in an instant, their minds not believing what they saw.
On the hill-slope, those aggressive men, who were originally after their lives, were similarly startled. They froze in their positions after seeing the majority of their squad collapsed on the ground.
They have not yet understood where the ferocious lightning came from.
"Ha? Still not dead? I've got to kill all of you! How dare you guys strike me with lightning! Me, who is the master at using lightning!"
Seeing a few men still alive after her Five-Blow-Thunderstruck, she tore another part of her clothes right away, and again, used her blood to write the symbol for Five-Blow-Thunderstruck quickly. Just like last time, she tossed it into the sky and wielded the sword.
Rumble!
The second wave of thunder was even more deafening. Almost instantaneously, the lightning streaked across the sky, accompanied with a dense thunder roar.
It took only a split second!
On the hill-slope, there was no longer any sight of people standing. The only thing remaining were scorched corpses collapsing to the ground.
The entire surrounding became unusually quiet and there was a burnt smell wafting through the air from the hill-slope opposite to them.
Ji Fengyan squinted her eyes, as if to determine that her Five-Blow-Thunderstruck had completely exterminated everyone in its path.
Thus, she had not noticed that the bodyguards behind her were completely stunned. Each of them had opened their jaws so wide as though they had seen a ghost.
"Just… Just now… What happened?" one of the bodyguard asked in a tremulous voice. If he had not witnessed it himself, he would never believe that his Miss had easily sent a few hundred of killers to their deaths just by waving a sword in midair.
"I, I am also not sure…" the burly man gulped. Even though he was standing the closest to Ji Fengyan just now and watched the entire process with his own eyes, he still could not understand what had occurred.
He only saw that using her blood, his Miss drew some random symbols on her clothes, then threw it up and cut it using the sword. Afterwards, the area opposite was promptly struck by lightning and everything turned to ashes.
After Ji Fengyan was certain that everyone on the hill was definitely dead, she then satisfyingly threw the sword back into the burly man's arms. She wiped the bloodstain on her finger clean before turning to the bodyguards and asked quizzically, "Why are all of you still in a daze? Shouldn't we be moving quicker, or do you guys intend to stay overnight in this wilderness?"
The burly man hugged his sword in trepidation; he had never felt treasured his sword so much as he did now.
"Miss, what were you doing just now?" the burly man asked carefully.
Ji Fengyan said, "Killing people, what don't you understand?"
The burly man simply looked at Ji Fengyan, flabbergasted. Of course he knew that she was killing people, but how did she do it merely by using her blood and waving the sword to summon those frightening thunderclouds? No, could it possibly be—
Their Miss's blood, was it perhaps poisonous?!
At such a realization, the burly man's gaze at Ji Fengyan was filled with a deep sense of respect.
"Deal with those who were injured, and get ready to set out." Ji Fengyan brushed the dust off her clothes, her thoughts had already drifted away. This body still carried some original memories; The reason why they were being attacked was because she had inherited her father's World-Termination-Armour.
World-Termination-Armour was an extremely rare item on earth. Anyone who donned it would possess extraordinary powers and the wielders of such armor were known as terminators. A terminator was the main battling force of a kingdom and had a high social status. Just like the original owner of this body.
Even though she was only a 14-year-old child, she was directly assigned the role of a City Lord at such a young age after she had inherited her father's World-Termination-Armour, making her the envy of everyone around her.
Unfortunately, because her parents were not around to take care of her since a young age, she was the constant target of bullying from her siblings and cousins. Enduring such treatment for a long time, she naturally became very weak. Despite being known as a Miss, her life was worse than the servants in her family clan.
This time, after her father died on the battlefield and left the World-Termination-Armour to her, her uncles forced her to hand over the World-Termination-Armour. Being used to bullying and oppression, she did not have the courage to fight back at all, and agreed to handing over the World-Termination-Armour to her uncles after her succession ceremony is over.
However, someone must have been unable to wait!
The burly man looked at Ji Fengyan with reverence. While instructing those bodyguards who had less severe injuries to carry the ones who were badly injured, he hugged the sword that was used by Ji Fengyan. Then, when Ji Fengyan was not looking, he felt around the place where she originally collapsed, secretly picked up the cloth she used to clean her wounds and carefully hid it.
A bodyguard at the side was perplexed as he watched his chief pick up a piece of bloodstained cloth and hid it as if he found a treasure.
"Chief, why did you pick up this useless cloth?" asked the bodyguard.
The burly man froze, turned covertly and said softly, "What useless cloth! This is a treasured object because it is stained with Miss's blood!"
"…" The bodyguard was stunned. He thought, had his chief's brain been struck by lightning too?
The burly man saw that the bodyguard did not understand, so he decisively whispered to him and told him about Ji Fengyan being able to summon lightning by drawing symbols using her blood.
The bodyguard was instantly shocked and he no longer mocked at the burly man. Then, he kept the sword he was holding at the side of his waist and started to bend down and search among the crushed rocks too.
"Chief don't just think about yourself. Help me find one piece too!"
"As if! I only managed to find this piece after so long," the burly man muttered.
"Then share a bit with me!"
"Scram!"
…
Ji Fengyan did not notice what they were doing. Her mind was already preoccupied with figuring out ways to retry her immortal cultivation in this new world.
Even if she had a replacement of body, it did not diminish her determination for immortal ascension!
The bodyguards were all almost done packing up. Luckily, their horse carriage could still be used, although it was already badly damaged from the explosion. The burly man let Ji Fengyan get onto the carriage, while the others walked outside towards their destination.
After Ji Fengyan entered the carriage, the burly man could not help but sigh.
"If Master had known that Miss was bullied in the family during those days when he was away protecting the nation who knows how heartbroken he would be."
All these bodyguards had followed Ji Fengyan's father to the battlefield and fought alongside together. Only after her father died did they come looking for Ji Fengyan with the World-Termination-Armour according to the Emperor's decree.
