Xiao Qiushui instantly lowered her head, only to see Jiang Ning slightly raising his head to look at her, his gaze exceptionally sharp. At this moment, Jiang Ning gave Xiao Qiushui no time to react, suddenly exerting force on her ankle.
Boom——
With the explosion of his power, Xiao Qiushui was pulled down like a piece of cloth and heavily slammed into the ground.
With this slam, the floor tiles shattered, and the scattered debris shot in all directions like cannonballs.
The nearby walls were instantly blasted with various-sized craters.
Faced with Xiao Qiushui, the Heavenly Human Grandmaster, Jiang Ning dared not give her any chance to recover.
Seizing the opportunity, he tightly locked her ankle, repeatedly lifting her and slamming her onto the ground as if handling a sandbag.
In his heart, there was no thought of cherishing beauty or tenderness.
Jiang Ning only knew to fully seize this rare opportunity, never giving Xiao Qiushui any chance to recover.
Boom——
Boom——
Boom——
...
The continuous rumbling echoed incessantly.
The ground around kept shaking, and the pits beneath grew deeper and deeper.
The rumbling quickly spread through the entire Water Moon Sword Palace, instantly awakening the disciples who were in slumber.
In just a few breaths.
Xiao Qiushui was heavily thrown to the ground by Jiang Ning.
rate further.
"Truly remarkable!" he murmured to himself.
Then his figure vanished from the great hall, entering the tunnel below.
In an instant.
He appeared before the towering stone gate below the tunnel.
The oil lamps on both sides of the tunnel ignited instantly as he appeared.
The sizzling, leaping flames lit up the previously pitch-black tunnel.
Jiang Ning glanced at the stone gate before him, and immediately slashed out with his knife.
Clang clang—
As the blade struck the stone gate, a piercing screech sounded, sparks dancing wildly like fireflies on the stone wall.
Jiang Ning held the long knife, his tiger’s mouth numbing slightly, an expression of surprise flashing in his eyes.
This slash had not produced the scene he imagined.
The stone gate was not split open, leaving only a knife mark that was several dozen centimeters long and three to five centimeters deep.
Instead, the shock numbed his tiger’s mouth.
At the next moment.
He took a deep breath.
Slashed again, unleashing an explosion of sword intent.
Scratch—
With the passage of sword intent, the stone gate broke with a sound.
He instantly felt the airflow moving through the gap he had created.
This indicated that his slash had already split open the thick stone gate.
Afterward.
Several crisscrossing slashes followed.
Before this sword intent.
The originally incredibly hard stone gate seemed ordinary, instantly severed by him.
Afterward.
He placed his palm on the stone gate and pushed with force.
The fragments of the stone gate, weighing a thousand pounds, were pushed out by him, landing heavily in the secret chamber behind the stone gate.
Jiang Ning bent down and slipped into the secret chamber.
From his previous observations.
This secret chamber wasn’t very large.
Nor were there many things inside, only the treasures of the Water Moon Sword Palace that were truly precious.
As for the other visible sect treasury.
He had already discovered.
There were many things, the treasury was large.
But most of the items were quite ordinary.
To him, they were far less valuable than this treasury.
After all, he was alone at the moment and had only two Sumeru Rings, which couldn’t carry much.
At this time.
He didn’t have time to look carefully, quickly looting the treasury.
In less than the time of two breaths.
The treasury was cleared by him.
Afterward.
His figure flickered and reappeared outside the stone gate.
Relying on the coverage of his divine sense.
The entire Water Moon Sword Palace was under his watch.
Everyone’s movements were perceived by him.
Moments later.
He returned from the tunnel to the great hall.
Arriving in front of Xiao Qiushui.
At this moment, Xiao Qiushui’s clothes were torn, her white dress stained with blood and dirt.
Gone was the demeanor of a grandmaster.
Even with exposed skin, the previous beauty was absent.
In his mind, he couldn’t help recalling Xiao Qiushui from before.
Her appearance was beautiful, cold as ice.
Seemingly possessing the majesty of a goddess.
But now, how did she resemble her previous self in the slightest?
"Forget it!"
"Let me let you depart with some dignity!"
Jiang Ning sighed.
Raised his hand and beckoned.
A long curtain floating in the great hall flew into his hand.
He covered Xiao Qiushui with the curtain, then the curtain wrapped around and enveloped her entire body.
At the next moment.
Flames appeared in the void.
The temperature was extremely high, far surpassing ordinary flames.
Instantly igniting Xiao Qiushui who was enveloped by the curtain.
As the flames danced, the empty great hall was instantly illuminated.
And Jiang Ning’s figure vanished from this place.
