2256 Turtle Speed
That towering man's leg broke from the little lady's flying kick!
"Ow!" That man yowled and collapsed to the floor.
The little lady looked at him expressionlessly. She knitted her brows and made a grab through the air, bringing that bewildered and nervous youth to her.
"Y-You, what do you want?" That youth looked to be only 13 or 14. Because his face was beaten black and blue, she wasn't able to make out his features clearly from far away. She didn't realize he was actually so young.
Qiao Mu felt that this lad had some potential being an intermediate-level talisman practitioner at this age.
A talisman practitioner primarily had to rely on their own talisman energy when crafting talismans.
The strength of their talisman energy would affect the level at which they crafted talismans.
For example, Qiao Mu could make out from the talisman energy flowing through his body that he was indeed an intermediate-level talisman practitioner, but at this moment…
Qiao Mu furrowed her brow when she saw the black and turbid cloud at the area between his brows.
Could it be that this so-called Master Jiang Hong had used a curse to forcefully advance their talisman energy levels?
The energy from this curse had now disappeared, but the remnant energy was harmful to their bodies. If it was not removed in time, it would greatly affect their future talisman energy advancement.
These clueless dummies had thought their advancement was due to a secret technique?
It was merely due to a curse!
Qiao Mu stealthily took out a purifying talisman and waved it while sandwiching it between her fingers.
A streak of talisman energy with purifying properties darted into the area between the youth's brows and swallowed up the black cloud.
The youth jolted. Even though he didn't know what had happened, he felt that his spiritual conscious had cleared up in an instant.
He felt like there were several wisps of talisman energy suddenly flowing through his body.
"Hey, what are you still gawking for?" Qiao Mu tilted her head and looked at the youth. "Draw an intermediate-level defensive talisman for me to see."
Jiang Hong's face turned green from anger. She pointed at Qiao Mu and shouted, "What are you all still standing there for? Chase both of them out!"
Just anyone could stomp all over her, was that it?
She was a rare yellow-level grand talisman practitioner! It was only natural that she received everyone's respect, not their accusations and abuses!
At Jiang Hong's order, the shop assistants also ran aggressively toward Qiao Mu and them.
However, Mo Lian flicked them away with several bursts of energy before they could get close.
The shop assistants tumbled to the floor, unable to get back up.
On the other hand, Qiao Mu looked leisurely at that shocked youth. "Hey, why are you still blanking out? Hurry up and draw!"
"Ah, yes, yes!" The youth quickly nodded. He turned around and saw the short table at the foot of the stairs.
He jogged up to that short table, which had a talisman pen and blank talisman paper. He started drawing with devout concentration.
From his stance, it was evident that he was someone who could draw talismans.
After 15 minutes, the shop was silent.
Qiao Mu looked exasperatedly at the youth who was still completely focused on drawing the talisman.
After another half hour!
That lad had still not finished drawing a simple mid-rank defensive talisman!
Qiao Mu was totally speechless. She was shocked to no end.
With his speed, let alone going out right now to battle other people, even three days' preparation wouldn't give him enough time to produce a handful of attack talismans!
