"I was struck by the Heavenly Sheath?"
Gu Shen's heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat.
Even though his body was covered in iron-scale skin, he was still hit.
The silver lining in this misfortune was due to the nature of "Chi Huo," Gu Shen possessed an exceedingly vast amount of stored elemental energy within, tens of times more than others of the same level... Thus, in the initial stage when these Heavenly Sheath fragments pierced him, he could still bear the strength of the curse.
If the woman hadn't warned him.
He might not have realized it until later.
All nine Law Enforcers saw Gu Shen's act of protection... Had Gu Shen not blocked the recent "explosion," they would have been the ones struck by the Heavenly Sheath.
They were immensely grateful, yet equally fearful and guilty.
As one of the top leaders of this major extermination, Gu Shen took the strike from the Heavenly Sheath to protect them?
"Mr. Xiao Gu..."
The woman wanted to step forward to check the injury.
