Chapter 1420: The Heavenly Enchantress’ Strength (2/2)

What Nubis said near the end seemed to have crossed the Heavenly Enchantress’ bottom line.

Ding!

Almost at the same time Nubis had finished speaking, the Heavenly Enchantress struck a string. There was only a single note, but it seemed like a thunderous explosion when Nubis heard it. His body and soul trembled.

Nubis’ face drastically changed. He stared at the Heavenly Enchantress as disbelief flooded his face. He was now a Saint Emperor; even though his soul could not be compared to the souls of human Saint Emperors, it was far more powerful, without any doubt, than his soul when he was still at Class 7. Yet right now, he had discovered that he still found it very difficult to resist the soul attacks of the Heavenly Enchantress even with his strengthened soul.

“Once I get you, I’d like to see how you play the zither!” Nubis made up his mind. Extending a finger, a strand of golden thread shot out with lightning-like speed, weaving into a net that loomed over the Heavenly Enchantress.

The Heavenly Enchantress’ face was icy-cold. Her eyes seemed to flicker with darkness, enough to cause people to shiver. With just a single hand, she strummed the strings of her zither. The music she created was extremely pleasant, but it also seemed to be as deep as the sound of war drums. The sound seemed to change. As she struck every note, visible sound waves spread into the surroundings.

As soon as Nubis’ net came into contact with the sound waves, it met a great resistance, unable to move any further after spreading out. It was even pushed back by the sound waves.

Nubis was thrown into absolute shock by that. The current situation was nowhere near the outcome he had expected. He had never thought that he would be at a disadvantage against the Heavenly Enchantress.

However, before Nubis could react, the Heavenly Enchantress’ playing posture changed. She played seven strings simultaneously, immediately producing seven pleasant but deep sounds. A sound wave formed with every string, kicking up ripples in the surrounding space.

When Nubis heard the seven notes, he violently jerked and immediately paled.

The seven notes seemed to explode in his head like thunder. When the fourth note exploded, he could not help but stagger back uncontrollably.

The fifth note made Nubis grunt. He became injured and had already staggered several dozen meters back.

The sixth note caused a stream of blood to flow from the corner of Nubis’ lips and caused him to stagger to several hundred meters away.

The seventh note caused Nubis to throw up blood. His body trembled as his eyesight became blurry. He found it rather difficult to stay standing.

The Heavenly Enchantress’ gaze remained icy-cold. Nubis had crossed her bottom line, so she clearly did not plan on letting him go so easily. She had already placed a finger on an eighth string and was about to strum it.

Jian Chen’s face changed. He knew that the Heavenly Enchantress was very powerful, but he had never expected her strength to be so great. Nubis suffered a complete defeat with his strength as a Saint Emperor, which took him by complete surprise. Seeing how the Heavenly Enchantress still did not plan on letting Nubis go, he immediately cried out, “Stop, don’t harm Nubis anymore!”

Jian Chen arrived before Nubis in a flash and supported him when he almost fell.
