Li Zhongnan stood silently on the side, observing the battlefield with a faint smile. He hadn't expected the tide of battle to turn so quickly. Initially, Lu Xingkong had been at a disadvantage, but with an Ascended Sanctum Realm cultivator willing to self-destruct, the situation was instantly reversed. Not only was the eldest prince, Lu Xingyun, severely injured by the impact, but even the mighty Grand Elder was dragged down by it.
The old crone's eyes unexpectedly flashed with panic. Seeing Lu Xingkong charging at her, she raised her walking stick to block him, but she was still a step too slow—Lu Xingkong struck her squarely with a punch.
With a muffled groan, the Grand Elder's face instantly turned deathly pale.
