Chapter 316: Battle Against Elis
Twiing!
As Aldrian plucked the string, a piercing sound erupted, causing Elis’s ears to ring with such intensity that her eardrums began to tear and bleed. Desperately, she placed one hand on the string to halt its vibration while stretching her other hand toward Aldrian’s face in a swift palm strike.
This man was using her own guqin against her! Had he also comprehended the sound element and mastered sound laws?
Noticing the incoming palm strike, Aldrian calmly grabbed her wrist. Anticipating his reaction, Elis swiftly snapped her fingers right in front of his face.
Snap!
The snapping sound reverberated in Aldrian’s ears, but his expression remained calm and unmoved. Without hesitation, his other hand reached out and gripped Elis’s neck firmly.
Elis was stunned—her snapping sound, which should have caused immense damage, had no effect on Aldrian, even though he was directly in front of the sound’s source. Refusing to give up, she quickly devised another move.
Her free hand, still holding the strings of the guqin, channeled all the energy she could muster in a single surge and swept across the strings in one powerful motion.
The resulting sound created a shockwave so intense that even Aldrian frowned slightly. He sensed the overwhelming strength of the sound—powerful enough to instantly kill anyone below the viscount stage who remained within its area of effect.
Fortunately, Aldrian had anticipated this move. The formations he had set up earlier effectively isolated the sound technique, ensuring it wouldn’t travel beyond a four kilometers radius around them.
He attempted to inject his energy into Elis, aiming to incapacitate her. However, Elis suddenly exhaled something from her mouth. Reacting swiftly, Aldrian dodged it, but he was forced to release his grip on her neck and let go of her wrist for a split second.
