Old Devil Ma Teng's face also became incomparably solemn. He was no longer as calm as before. He exclaimed, "This old woman is too strong. Even if the two of us work together, we are still no match for her. Quickly retreat!" Old Devil Ma Teng didn't have time to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and immediately retreated.
The sudden change of events greatly surprised the three old men at the Fifth Heavenly Layer. The two old men who charged toward Bi Hai and Jiede Tai also stopped. The three of them immediately gathered together in the air. If the old woman wanted to attack them, they would be able to block one or two moves at the very least, even if they were not her opponent.
The two Sixth Heavenly Layer Saint Rulers quickly retreated. Their bodies fused with the surrounding space as they used Spatial Force to retreat to the back with lightning-like speed. They gathered with their three companions at the Fifth Heavenly Layer. They were all stern as they cautiously stared at the old woman with the dragon-headed staff.
"Who are you? What's your relationship with the Flame Mercenaries? " Situ Teng's face was rather pale. He stared at the old woman closely as he asked with a deep voice. He wanted to know her identity.
The old woman was stooped, but her eyes shone brightly. She said, "The five of you don't have the right to ask about my origins. As for my relationship with the Flame Mercenaries, that has nothing to do with you. If the five of you know what's good for you, leave immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."
Old Devil Situ and Old Devil Ma Teng's expressions were somewhat ugly. They looked at each other and Old Devil Situ said, "Although the other party is very strong, the five of us are not weak either. If the five of us work together, I don't believe that we can't deal with that old woman."
"That's right. If we want to complete the mission easily, we need to repel that old woman and then take control of this place to threaten Jianchen. As long as we have the Flame Mercenaries as a bargaining chip, I refuse to believe that Jianchen won't obediently hand over what we want," Ma Teng sneered.
"Alright, I agree with that suggestion. Let's work together and fight to the death." The five of them quickly came to a consensus and charged toward the old woman. They didn't hold back in the slightest as they fought the old woman with all their might.
Jiede Tai and Bi Hai stood up with pale faces. They looked at the sky at the same time and let out a sigh of relief inside. Although the two of them had no idea when the old woman had arrived, they were familiar with her. They knew that she was a peak expert at the Eighth Heavenly Layer of Saint Ruler and that she had the terrifying backing of an ancient clan.
Nubis transformed back into his human form and hovered in the air, watching the battle from afar. He felt very fortunate. "Fortunately, there are experts from the Tianmu Clan. Otherwise, who knows what kind of consequences we would face today."
The old woman had already engaged in an intense battle with the five powerful Saint Rulers in the air. Both sides had gone from a thousand meters high to over ten thousand meters high. The battle caused the ground to crumble and the sun to dim. Pitch-black spatial cracks would appear from time to time in the azure sky.
The old woman blocked three Saint Rulers at the Fifth Heavenly Layer and two at the Sixth Heavenly Layer. Not only was she at ease, but she also possessed the upper hand, firmly suppressing the five Saint Rulers.
The battle did not last for very long. In around ten minutes, the five Saint Rulers had all been injured by the old woman. They all vomited blood and fell from the sky, heavily injured.
The five of them were shocked. The old woman's strength had completely exceeded their expectations. They originally believed that they could defeat her if they worked together, but they never thought that not only would they fail to achieve victory, they would not even be able to touch a hair on the old woman's head. Instead, they were all heavily injured.
"That old woman must be at the peak of the Eighth Heavenly Layer or even the Ninth Heavenly Layer. God dammit, why is there such an expert in the Flame Mercenaries?" An old man at the Fifth Heavenly Layer could not help but curse.
Old Fogey Situ managed to control his falling body in midair. He glared at the old woman in the sky and said through gritted teeth, "Let's go!" As soon as he finished speaking, Old Fogey Situ immediately fled into the distance.
Behind him, Ma Teng and the three other old men all stabilized their falling bodies. They followed behind old man Situ with their heavily injured bodies, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
The old woman slowly descended from the sky. As soon as her feet touched the ground, the seductively dressed Tianmu Ling arrived beside her. She asked in concern, "Granny Wang, are you alright?"
The cold expression on the old woman's face instantly disappeared. She looked at Tianmu Ling with a gentle gaze and said with a benevolent smile, "Silly girl, how can Granny Wang have any problems dealing with them? It's not like you don't know Granny Wang's strength."
"Ling 'er is just worried about granny!" Tianmu Ling sweetly smiled and hugged the old woman's arm affectionately.
The old woman could not help but chuckle when she saw how Tianmu Ling was behaving. This granddaughter of hers was the apple of her eye. She loved her dearly.
"Thank you for your assistance, senior." Bi Hai and Jiede Tai walked over from afar, their steps a little shaky. At the same time, they cupped their fists and thanked the old woman. Both of them knew that if it wasn't for the old woman's help today, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Not to mention the fact that both of them would have been captured by the enemy, even Bi Lian and the others would have been seriously threatened.
The old woman calmly glanced past Bi Hai and Jiede Tai. She said, "I never thought that there would be people who would come looking for trouble with the Flame Mercenaries. Looks like they don't know about the relationship between Jianchen and the grand elder of Mercenary City. I really wonder what kind of trouble this kid has caused outside for so many experts to come looking for him. Alright, go heal up. I'll watch over here, so you don't need to worry about your safety."
Bi Hai and Jiede Tai expressed their thanks once more and went to tend to their injuries. Afterwards, Bi Lian and You Yue ran out of the discussion hall and thanked the old woman profusely.
"There's no need for the two of you to be so courteous. I've come this time to discuss something with Jianchen. I've saved you this time, so Jianchen owes me a favor. He has to return this favor." The old woman smiled meaningfully.
