Behind her back, a figure appeared and caught her easily.
Jungkook lowered his head and looked down at Lisa, noticing that there was a trail of blood by her lips that contrasted greatly with her sickly pale skin.
Her cheeks had only barely started filling with color through the past few weeks of nutritious eating, and now it was as pale as a piece of paper and back to how frail and weak she looked back when he first met her.
He reached down and wiped off the trail of blood gently before his eyes suddenly squinted, and he sent a piercing gaze at the clearing nearby. There wasn’t anyone there, but he stretched his arm out and drew a strange pattern in the air, making it distort slightly.
Eight figures appeared again on the clearing, and it was the eight people that were sent to a pocket in space by Lisa!
Seeing them, Jungkook’s gaze became colder. He wasn’t as lenient as Lisa was, and he couldn’t even muster even the slightest bit of pity as he picked up a branch and snapped it in half.
Then, he created an array around those men without any mercy, and in a single moment, their very essence of life started to be stripped away from them. These people didn’t know about arrays in the first place, and they couldn’t have escaped even if they were in a clear state of mind.
Adding onto that was the fact that Jungkook had created another array of killing within the bigger array, and the eye for that array was the thin tree branch that he had picked and snapped earlier.
He looked at the eight people that were in the array, before looking back at Lisa and raising his eyebrows slightly.
“The protection of the heavenly dragon corresponds with the natural law, and under the heavenly merit and virtue, all evils shall not prosper…No wonder, no wonder.” Jungkook muttered as he looked at her, before chuckling softly.
Seeing as she had great fortune and heavenly merit, even the regular demonic entity couldn’t even come near her, lest these wisps of demonic chi that were in the forest.
More surprising was the clear aura of an ancient martial artist that she had.
Then the air rippled, and the two of them disappeared from the scene.
Meanwhile, in the city, a middle-aged man in Taoist robes suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, and it didn’t even seem as if it would have been strange for him to even cough up his organs, but he didn’t seem to care about it at that moment.
Instead, he was staring aghast at the northwest direction, the jade tools he used to cast his spells that were glowing faintly a moment ago all turned into ash and dust.
—
The bright sun filtered through the curtains and shone onto the clean floor, and the petite figure in the bed fluttered her eyelashes and opened them to reveal a pair of clear eyes. Then, she got up defensively and looked around at the familiar room before she let her guard down again.
Lisa rubbed her temples before she grabbed her phone that was on the bedside drawer, and looking at the time, it was already eight in the morning. She had always woken up earlier than that, and who knows if the old man would wait for her to go practice martial arts in the morning.
She only remembered the events of last night vaguely and didn’t even know how she got back. She furrowed her brows slightly as she tried to remember how she passed out in the first place.
The last thing she remembered was how she cast the array and passed out…
She asked about what exactly happened while they were having breakfast, and Jungkook flipped a page before looking at her calmly. “I got a call from your friend the day before yesterday, so I located your phone through GPS and found you on a hill. You were already passed out when I got there.”
