Rhudamanth Di Gardia stood frozen amidst the carnage looking at the scene unfolding before him.

Zhao Tian glimpsed at the broken body of Selena beside his feet.

Her body trembled and muscles twitched uncontrollably from the sheer trauma of having her cultivation forcibly shattered.

Zhao Tian crouched slightly as he reached out and took a fistful of her long, bloodstained hair.

Selena's scream tore through the air as she was dragged off the ground and her scalp burned as strands of her black hair were ripped from the roots.

Zhao Tian didn't slow his steps and pulled her along, her body scraping against the blood-soaked stones as they ascended toward the towering structure that loomed over the battlefield.
