Chapter 819 - Uncommon (2/2)

As soon as she finished speaking, she waved her palm at Ghost.

Her cultivation was at the Great Martial Master level. Quickly funneling her True Inner Force, a massive gust of energy surged to her palm. Like a forceful gust of wind, she moved to slap on Ghost’s shoulder.

Ghost snorted, and without even thinking, she responded with a palm technique.

BAM!

The palms collided in the air and reverberate with a muffled boom. Instantly, the girl felt a powerful recoil spreading through her entire body along her arms. Her internal organs felt traumatized, and when she opened her mouth in surprise, a mouthful of blood gushed out. The girl lost control. The impact from Ghost’s hit flung her back some three to four meters, and she crashed to the ground.

The counterattack happened within a fraction of a second. It was less than five seconds from the moment Ghost defended herself until the end of the exchange. Many people did not know what was going on.

Chen Feng and the other three who were with him had their eyes wide-opened as they stared at Ghost. It was inconceivable that a girl with no True Inner Force had easily defeated their companion, who was at the Great Martial Master level.

“Humph. Nobody said you could scold Xiao Luo!” Ghost flicked the tip of her nose and snorted.

“Good job. Excellent display of power…”

Duck Emperor cheered her on while still in her pocket, giving Ghost a massive thumbs up. He dared not speak aloud because Xiao Luo had imposed a rule on him—to hold his tongue and be discreet in public.

“What are you guys doing over there? If you wish to fight, please leave. The God Weapon Conference does not welcome troublemakers!”

Two stern-looking dwarven soldiers came over and scowled at Xiao Luo, Chen Feng, and the others in a chilling tone. Ghost’s dispatch of the guy and the girl had caused quite a commotion.

“We are sorry for the offensive conduct. But we were not fighting. We are just learning from each other,” Chen Feng hurriedly replied to the soldiers and greeted them with a smile.

“We do not allow dueling as well. We are holding a God Weapon Conference here, my friend. You may not disrupt public order while in here,” a dwarf soldier retorted.

“Yes, yes, yes, you are right. We will not create any more chaos in the Conference,” said Chen Feng, lowering his posture.

With that assurance, the two dwarven soldiers turned around and left.

After the incident, the injured guy and girl returned to the group. They did not dare to look directly at Ghost. Even when they peeked at her discreetly, their eyes were full of fear. They never once thought that the girl could be so vicious.

“Brother Xiao, young lady, I am sorry. We are the ones in the wrong. I apologize to you on behalf of my two friends!” said Chen Feng. He apologized sincerely and made a deep bow to Xiao Luo and Ghost.

“I already told you. We are not acquaintances. This is unnecessary,” replied Xiao Luo calmly.

Then he gestured Ghost with a glance and walked away. There was no need to get too close with people like Chen Feng and his group, let alone waste time talking gibberish with them.

“Senior Brother Chen, the girl sure is spooky.”

“Yeah. The girl is holding an umbrella under broad daylight. She is not only spooky but also a weirdo.”

“There is no trace of True Inner Force on her body, but yet, she possesses such brutal strength. If I did not witness it with my very own eyes, I would never believe it.”

The group gossiped amongst themselves as they watched Xiao Luo and Ghost disappear into the crowd.

Chen Feng raised his hand to stop their chatter, and said, “We live in a massive world. Many things defy common sense. If we delve into each one of them, there is no way we can get a perfect answer, even after we exhaust our lifespan. Besides, did you guys not realize? The blade in the hand of that guy she called Xiao Luo does not seem like a common item?”
