Faced with this thunderous strike, Lu Jiuxiao neither dodged nor retreated. Instead, an even more frenzied, savage grin spread across his face.
He swung his own claw to meet the attack, intending to trade injury for injury, to meet force with force!
CLANG—!
As claw met palm, a deafening roar erupted!
The Scale Armor on Lu Jiuxiao's chest instantly shattered and blood sprayed from the wound, yet he seemed to feel no pain. Harnessing the force of the impact, his other claw became a crimson afterimage as he lashed out with a backhand strike at the puppet's throat!
However, just as his claws were about to touch the puppet's neck...
HUM!
A crimson layer of Gangsha Armor suddenly materialized around the puppet's neck!
Lu Jiuxiao's claws scraped across the surface of the Gang Sha, kicking up a long trail of blinding sparks with a grating screech, but failed to penetrate any deeper!
'This puppet... it's really in the Gang Condensation Realm!'
