flying, but their speed is far inferior to that of the Nine Heavens. It's been so long since they dared to come to Jincheng."Hurry it up, all of you."Zhu Mingying cried out, her heart filled with ferv..."This..."

Lu Banxia picked up the small bottle, took a glance at the liquid inside. It was as crimson as blood, rolling ceaselessly and emitting an eerie red mist, which looked rather strange.

“Can you really drink this”

Being exposed to such strange and peculiar things for the first time, she couldn't help but feel a tinge of nervousness in her heart.

"Of course you can drink it, I had some last time." Joanna said, "Don't worry, this is just a love potion brewed by the Grand Mage. It's harmless to the body, and after drinking it, you'll feel refreshed and invigorated."

"Oh!"

Lu Banxia was still a little hesitant.

"My medicine has a time limit," Roario said, "This potion will be useless if you don't drink it within one minute."

"Banxia, don't hesitate any longer, if you wait any longer that man of yours will be gone. "

A strange light flashed in Joanna's eyes, and her voice was full of temptation.

At this moment, Ye Bufan's handsome face appeared before Lu Banxia. He then thought of Alice, the No. 1 beauty in M country, and the excellent women from China like An Yimo and Qin Chuchu. Each woman was better than the last.

In the end, she made up her mind and tipped the bottle back, pouring the liquid down her throat.

As the crimson liquid flowed into her mouth, a peculiar smile flickered across Romario's face, which was creased with wrinkles.

"Grand Mage, thank you. I'll be going now."

Lu Banxia put another bottle of clear liquid into his pocket and stood up to leave.

Before he could even take two steps, he felt a dizziness come over him, and then he fainted to the ground.

Miss Lu...

Rudolf and the others were astonished. They rushed over to help, but before they could take a few steps, each of them fell to the ground.

"This scent is poisonous!"

Only now did Rudolf realize something was wrong. He found his mental energy scattered, unable to summon any true qi at all.

After he had just entered the room, Zeng had cautiously checked his qi, finding nothing amiss. He hadn't expected the toxins in the scent to target not his qi but rather his mental fortitude, causing a state of numbness.

Whether it's a cultivator or a martial artist, they ultimately rely on spiritual power as support. However, cultivators' spiritual power is relatively stronger.

But for warriors, if their mental energy is scattered, they will be unable to mobilize their true qi and thus unable to exert their full strength.

At this moment, Rudolph and his companions were in such a state. They possessed immense amounts of true energy but were unable to use it. It was like an army without a command system, completely incapable of unleashing its full fighting power.

He struggled valiantly for a few moments, but ultimately slumped to the ground in defeat.

Johanna burst into a fit of triumphant laughter. "You puny things, daring to oppose potions crafted by the great Sorcerer You're dreaming!"

Rudolf gritted his teeth and said, "You woman, the master will not let you go."

Now he understands, this woman and the great wizard Romario were in cahoots all along, deceiving Lu Banxia together.

Joanna laughed, "Don't dream on, you'll all die in the end."

"Alright, stop wasting time with these trash."

Rorario waved his robe sleeve, black smoke billowed out, and Rudolph and the others instantly lost consciousness.

Then he clapped his hands again, and immediately a dozen or so black-clad samurai walked in from outside.

He ordered, "Take them all and lead them away."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a dark figure suddenly appeared in the room and dashed towards the door. It was Lei Hufa Xie Changsi.

Following Ye Bufan's instructions, he was responsible for following and protecting Lu Banxia. However, Rudolf and the others were in the open, while he remained hidden in the shadows.

This time is no exception, he's been following me secretly.

Just now, I saw Lu Banxia fainted, and Rudolf and the others were poisoned. He originally wanted to summon Thor to kill Roamario, but then he found that his mental power was in chaos and he could no longer control the power of thunder.

Xie Changsi immediately realized he had been poisoned. As a Saint-rank warrior, his cultivation and spiritual power far surpassed Rudolf and the others. Although he couldn't exert his strength, he still had the ability to escape.

He knew now was not the time to be reckless. The key was to get the message out, to Ye Bufan.

Because of that, he immediately fled out the door as soon as he appeared.

Both Romario and Joanna jumped in surprise, they hadn't expected there to be someone else hiding in the room.

"Think you can run It's not that easy."

A sinister smile crept across Mario's face, and then he reached inside his robe to draw out a dagger that was about a foot long.

This blade is blood red throughout, not forged from gold or iron, but a magical artifact crafted from human bone.

"Get out of here!"

Rio shouted, his bone knife instantly transforming into a red light, slashing towards Xie Changsi's back as if it were alive.

Xie Changsi has already tried his best, but now his cultivation level is less than one percent of what it used to be. Let alone flying, even running takes a tremendous amount of effort.

If this were any other time, even if the opponent's ancient sword was a magic weapon, a bolt of lightning would instantly turn it to nothingness.

But now he can't, he's lost his ability to summon lightning, and can only do his best to dodge.

However, this bone was unlike ordinary throwing knives. It relentlessly pursued him, showing no signs of stopping until it tasted blood.

Xie Changsi dodged left and right, dodging several times in a row, but was ultimately struck on the back by a bone knife.

Instantly, blood splattered, and a gash over a foot long was cleaved into his back, deep to the bone.

He was a ruthless character too. Gritting his teeth, he used the momentum of the strike to charge forward once more.

And that bone blade was extremely eerie; it absorbed the blood from its surface clean, no longer pursued, and transformed into a red glow flying back towards Roamario.

Joanna looked at Xie Changsi's retreating figure and said with some worry, "Elder, letting this person escape back might cause trouble."

"Rest assured, he's been poisoned by me and is seriously injured. He can't run very far."

“I'm afraid he'll spread the word and call for backup.”

"What difference does it make Whoever he sends, they'll die here," Riallo said arrogantly.

Joanna, thinking of the man's terrifying presence, quickly said, "The Elder is right."

Romerio said, "You've made a great contribution this time. When I report to the master, I will take you as an inner disciple."

Joanna immediately exclaimed with joy, "Thank you, Elder."

"Alright, you can go back now." Romanario waved his hand at her and then turned to the men in black behind him. "Tie all of them up and send them back to headquarters to be dealt with by the Master."

"Yes!"

The man in black agreed with a nod, carried Rudolf, Lu Banxia and the others onto the car and left the small valley. Joanna also returned to Apple City.

Xie Changsi fled for more than ten miles before finding that there were no pursuers. He then hid in a secluded place.

At this moment, his mental energy was waning more and more, the true qi he could control was dwindling. At the same time, a sharp pain came, that wound was simply too deep, excessive blood loss caused dizziness.

He pressed his hand on the acupuncture points on his back a few times, temporarily controlling the bleeding. Then he took out his phone and quickly dialed Ye Bufan's number. so he would not be misled by such trivial enchantments.He just glanced at the woman, then looked away, fiddling with the roast chicken in front of him and saying, “Not really, you should probably loo...
