The girl seemed to have a heart of innocence within her Spiritual Realm, which is generally cultivated from a young age under the guidance of a major power.
Before confirming her origins, he dared not act rashly to kill her, for if he happened to attack someone with significant backing, it was likely they'd be protected by a deep national fortune. Should he kill her, he might incur a heavy burden of sin.
Though he was under the protection of the Twelfth Prince, and the Heavenly Punishment Department could maneuver to give him time to escape from Jingzhou,
even if he did escape, he would need to slowly accumulate merit to dissolve the sin, which would be too time-consuming.
Yu Shiqi looked at the opponent strangely, "If you want to fight, then fight, why do you need to know me? I don't know you, and if you dare to rob me, I won't be merciful when I fight back."
"Oh? You don't know me?" Wind Monarch narrowed his eyes.
He knew it was hard to lie with a heart of innocence.
He was a mighty figure on the Divine List, known by countless people, and yet this girl didn't recognize him?
Could it be she truly knew nothing about the gravity of the world?
With a cold snort, Wind Monarch transformed into a ferocious gust, rushing toward Yu Shiqi with terrifying speed.
Regardless of her background, she surely wasn't one of the significant figures closely associated with saints like Princes or Dukes; otherwise, he would almost certainly know them.
He would first break her limbs, then force her to hand over the White Night Flower!
Yu Shiqi blinked, and rapidly chanted in her mind, "I am fast too... I am fast too..."
Then she swung her stick, and its shadow moved at a speed almost invisible!
"Clang clang clang clang clang—!"
In an instant, the shadow of Yu Shiqi's stick had exchanged blows with Wind Monarch's metallic-colored prosthetic limbs dozens of times.
The ferocious wind receded, reverting to Wind Monarch.
He sized up Yu Shiqi, gave a slight nod, and said indifferently, "You have some skill, barely matching three-tenths of my speed?"
His self-invented Ultimate True Skill was all about speed, but it consumed greatly and would injure himself, so he was reluctant to use it. Just now, he had only used his Ultimate Killing Skill from before.
Logically, his performance should have been sufficient to deal with those Cultivators who had won five consecutive victories on the second layer of Tianxia Building, yet this girl proved to be quite strong?
Yu Shiqi was surprised, then said, "Then wait a moment, let me get ready."
"Hm?" Wind Monarch furrowed his brows. Was she planning to use some trump card?
Without hesitation, he activated his Ultimate True Skill, turning into a dusty whirlwind and launched an even more fearsome attack at Yu Shiqi, not giving her any time to prepare!
"Hey! Wait a second!"
Yu Shiqi felt somewhat aggrieved, but she had no choice but to use the Mind Forbidden Technique and swing her stick to counter.
But after just one block, she felt a sharp force strike her abdomen, sending her uncontrollably flying backward.
"What a sturdy Vestment robe..."
Wind Monarch was somewhat surprised; his strike hadn't injured her at all and was completely blocked by the robe.
With his strength, even a First-Grade Magic Treasure vestment wouldn't likely withstand the blow, let alone True Treasures, which Four Symbols Practitioners could not use.
"Ouch, that really hurt..." After stabilizing herself, Yu Shiqi knitted her brows tightly and couldn't help but hold her stomach.
"Hmph, even if your Vestment robe is sturdy, your physical body won't hold," Wind Monarch's gaze was icy as he transformed once again into a dusty whirlwind and charged at Yu Shiqi.
Wind Monarch's expression suddenly changed, and his figure instantly redirected, a blur speeding past and plunging into the ground.
He retreated dozens of feet and couldn't help but frown.
He had barely caught a glimpse of the object that flew past—a Short Spear traveling at tremendous speed.
"Lucky, aren't you... Wind Monarch?"
A low chuckle sounded, and a man with flower-white hair and a mask descended from mid-air.
The few people nearby were taken aback.
Was there another expert?
