"Snowball isn't a guard dog, he's my spirit beast companion, and I'm grateful for the offer but I'll politely decline it." Li Meirong countered, her eyebrows drew into a frown as she glanced askance at her fellow student from the same division.

Xiong Mei's eyes narrowed down as she peered at the so-called "Snowball" with undisguised mockery, "Right. Of course he is…"

After speaking thus, Xiong Mei immediately reached Li Meirong's side with a single flying leap, bypassing the hostile fox with incredible ease.

Bai Yu who had been pretending to be Snowball had only managed to turn his head back around and face the opponent before freezing on the spot. Every fibre of his being itched to transform at once and protect Her Ladyship from this terrible entity, however, he grew terrified upon realizing that he was unable to do so much as budge a paw!

During the time this "Xiong Mei" jumped over him, she managed to block his acupoints, therefore rooting him immobile to the spot!

Worse yet, this girl hadn't even touched him when she pressed on his pressure points.

Bai Yu contemplated the situation at hand with a terrible dread. He was unable to tell when this enemy had first approached and couldn't measure her level of cultivation, which meant that this person's strength had far surpassed his own.

Additionally, to be able to paralyze a warrior god from the Heavenly Realm without so much as lifting a finger could only pinpoint to one thing, and it was that this Xiong Mei was terrifyingly powerful. So powerful, in fact, that Bai Yu assumed no one in the fox clan would be able to take her down in terms of sheer strength.

The fates surely enjoyed abusing Bai Yu, for if that was not enough, his keen senses had already picked on the reptilian scent emitting from the girl. She smelled strangely like a lizard, and therefore her identity could only be…

'Oh, no!' In his deadened state, Bai Yu only managed to inhale a sharp intake of air.

His almond yellow orbs stared at Xiong Mei's back with a fierce, piercing look, willing himself to burn a hole into her chest with his eyes alone.

'Run, My Lady! This is one opponent even your Lord Husband would be unable to overcome!' He wanted to inform Her Ladyship of the danger but was unable to speak, his voice had been thoroughly muted!

Heck, he couldn't even warn Li Meirong with his eyes, the damned girl's height and shoulders completely concealed the dainty frame of Her Ladyship from his view!
