Oh my god, this is a bolt from the blue! A true heiress of metaphysics!

Chapter 238 Drawing Talismans in Mid-Air

Shi Xiaxia's smile widened, and she said slowly, "But looking at your face, you're clearly lying!"

Du Zhengming: "......"

Du Zhengming was speechless. He opened his mouth but couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

He quickly glared at Shi Xiaxia and said through gritted teeth, "No means no! As a fellow metaphysician, how do you have the ability to read my face? It's utterly absurd!"

"But you! Quickly explain who helped you. I don't believe you could escape from Zhu Chen and even capture Liu Shang!"

Upon seeing this, Yi Huan immediately retorted, "Du Zhengming! Xia Xia is incredibly capable; she can indeed see our faces clearly! Besides, how can you be so sure that others can't do what you can't do?!"

Shi Xiaxia showed no anger whatsoever; instead, she smiled gently.

She looked at Du Zhengming slowly and deliberately, a slight smile playing on her lips: "Whether it's my achievement or not, it seems to have nothing to do with you, right?! Are you too idle for anything else? How dare you steal the minister's job?!"

Could it be that you want to...?

"Shi Xiaxia!"

He immediately shouted at Shi Xiaxia, "If you keep talking nonsense like this, I'll... I'll..."

As Du Zhengming spoke, he raised his hand, seemingly wanting to hit Shi Xiaxia.

However, the scene of being hurt by Shi Xiaxia last time involuntarily surfaced in his mind.

Du Zhengming's expression instantly turned somewhat ugly. He quickly lowered his hand, a hint of fear and hesitation flashing in his eyes.

Upon seeing this scene, Yi Huan chuckled softly.

Meanwhile, Yue Mingzhu, who had been keeping a straight face, slowly revealed a faint smile.

Du Zhengming's face turned bright red as he witnessed the two men mocking him.

He knew that his actions just now had been utterly humiliating, and he clenched his fists tightly.

Shi Xiaxia bluntly said without any mercy: "After saying so much nonsense, aren't you just trying to force me to say that I have no fellow disciples, and then take the opportunity to interrogate me about who my master is?"

After going through all this trouble, they're probably trying to frame me as an 'undercover agent,' right?

"You're talking nonsense!"

Upon hearing this, Du Zhengming's expression changed drastically.

He almost immediately retorted loudly, "I absolutely did not have that thought!"

At this moment, Yi Huan slightly raised her chin and said sarcastically, "Hmph! That's right! Someone went through tremendous effort to reach the gold level!"

Just because he was promoted slowly, he felt that everyone else should be promoted slower than him. Sigh, to be honest, we did make some mistakes.

We really shouldn't have been promoted faster than you! We accidentally touched someone's fragile ego!

Her veiled insults caused Du Zhengming's face to change color like a palette, sometimes green, sometimes white.

"Whether I'm an undercover agent or not, you'll find out when you see it."

Shi Xiaxia curled her lips slightly, then her demeanor changed.

Immediately afterwards, she reached into the cloth bag at her waist and pulled out an ordinary rune pen.

She raised the rune pen in her hand and waved it gently in the air, and a golden light instantly flowed from the tip of the pen.

The people around stared wide-eyed, mouths agape, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.

They had never seen runes drawn directly in the air before!

Some people even rubbed their eyes, trying to confirm whether it was a hallucination.

Even Du Zhengming, who was closest to Shi Xiaxia, took a step back, staring blankly at the scene before him, unable to recover for a long time.

"This...how is this possible?"

In the crowd, a metaphysical master said in a trembling voice, "Using air as paper, drawing runes directly, and completing it in one go."

Shi Xiaxia is just a little girl... how could she possibly be like that?

"Who exactly is Shi Xiaxia?"

"Her strength is incredible!" a young metaphysical master exclaimed excitedly, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

The crowd began to discuss amongst themselves, their voices rising and falling.

As the last rune was completed, Shi Xiaxia's rune pen suddenly stopped, her eyes became even sharper, her hands quickly formed hand seals, and then with a flick, the golden rune entered Du Zhengming's body.

"Shi Xiaxia!"

Du Zhengming's legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground. Touching the spot where the talisman had entered, he cried out in a panic, "What did you do to me?! What did you do?! There are so many people watching! You can't kill me!"
