Chapter 233 One Punch

Joanna was quick enough to notice that those weaklings had business with Su Ping, not her. And of course she didn’t want to help him. Besides, as far as she could see, Su Ping didn’t need her assistance to get rid of the lot.

Still, she feared that there would be an unknown “administrator” looking after the shop, who might be displeased if she didn’t follow Su Ping’s orders through.

Su Ping made a sour face when Joanna didn’t move. “Do you plan to keep your rating or not? You’re obliged to maintain order in the shop. It’s written in the agreement. Now here’s a bunch of yelling thugs... It’s time to do something.”

Joanna remembered the said clause and reached the grim conclusion that she had just become a lowly bouncer for the shop, and there was nothing she could do about it.

She didn’t want to get her hands dirty just to deal with pathetic humans!

“... Gah! What do I do, kill them, throw them out, or what??”

Su Ping humphed. “Kill anyone who intends to kill. Otherwise, teach them a lesson with several punches.”

Joanna directed her frustration at the intruders by glaring at them. “Hear that, worms? Scram before I sentence you to death with my divine power!”

The offenders didn’t quite understand how this seemingly defenseless girl would talk to them like that.

“Divine power? She’s crazy, man,” someone mumbled.

Yuan Tianchen’s face turned gloomy as he no longer hid his thirst for violence. In his life as a legendary warrior, it had been decades since somebody had dared to humiliate him so. Perhaps this woman didn’t know who he was, but that wasn’t enough for him to forgive her.

“Very well... Let me find out what kind of failure has raised such an ill-mannered scum.”

Yuan Tianchen still believed that Su Ping’s “teacher” was hiding somewhere in the building. He was planning to draw that man out without minding those two younglings.

He began gathering a huge amount of astral power at a terrifying speed, causing the street outside to quake slightly. In a matter of seconds, every last bit of astral power in a large area had been concentrated in his hand.

By using the gathered energy, he hurled a gigantic ethereal fist in Su Ping’s way.

Su Ping did his best to keep his poker face, much to Joanna’s irritation. Su Ping’s careless attitude had just convinced her that she should stay put and watch what would happen next.

But again, she was worried that watching her “boss” get beaten would leave a bad mark on her resumé, even though Su Ping couldn’t die for real. At least she had not realized that Su Ping was no longer invincible in this world.

“Argh! Filthy humans!!”

Joanna teleported herself in front of Su Ping and dispelled the approaching astral fist away with a hand, just like slapping away a mosquito.

Yuan Tianchen saw how his attack had been so easily deflected and could only give Joanna a look of disbelief.

Similarly, the other titled warriors behind him, including Venerable the Blade, were stunned by the sudden turn of events.

But she looks only 16 or so. Could it be another old geezer who keeps that young look with some kind of forbidden art?

That was the only viable explanation they could think of.

Venerable the Blade recognized the young man he had saved back at the dragon tower as soon as he arrived. Back at the tower, he had detected an unbelievably strong power coming from Su Ping; it should have belonged to a titled battle pet warrior. He thought it was a mistake at first, but then changed his mind when he learned that it had also been Su Ping the one who made it to the final floor of the tower.

He didn’t tell this matter to anyone then, since nobody would believe him anyway. How outlandish would it be if he claimed that a random young man was a titled battle pet warrior? Even Yuan Tianchen’s daughter still had a long way to go before reaching that level, when her father was one of the strongest warriors across the continent.

But right then, Venerable the Blade was no longer concerned about Su Ping’s strength because this strange girl was even mightier than titled warriors. She blocked off Yuan Tianchen focused attack like it was nothing!

“Now, die.” Joanna lifted a hand and also began gathering energy. Not astral power, but golden, fulgent energy that sent a subduing aura over the room.

Yuan Tianchen went wide-eyed when he noticed the girl’s strength growing rapidly until it reached the rank of legendary, just like him.

She’s also a legendary warrior??

Those behind Yuan Tianchen had not reached that level yet, though they had spent enough time with Yuan Tianchen to know what a legendary warrior felt like. And they just couldn’t believe that they had found such power from this... girl.

Crack, crack!

Joanna moved her glowing hand forward, creating several fissures around it as if the very space had been frozen solid.

“This cannot be!” Yuan Tianchen yelled out.

Something told him that he could not afford to hold anything back right then. After fully revealing his true power, he quickly drew a series of complicated runes in front of him and created several round, energy shields that stacked against each other to increase their effectiveness.

However, the shields were soon destroyed one by one, as if someone were peeling an onion. Before Yuan Tianchen could do anything else, his body was hurled away by a giant force, together with all of his companions; all of them collapsed on the street outside.

Unlike the others, Yuan Tianchen managed to stay upright without falling down thanks to all the combat experience he had gained in his life. Though he still stumbled a good distance away from the shop, and it didn’t look pretty.

She’s truly a legendary warrior... But how?? I should know every legendary warrior living on this planet! Yuan Tianchen almost screamed when countless questions piled up in his mind.

What was that power? It was almost... magnificent! Magnificent, and deadly. Unlike the astral power we normally use.
