Ye Yu was struck with shock. The handle of the knife was forged from insulated metal, making it nearly impossible to be electrified under normal circumstances. The only explanation was that the current was not traveling through the metal at all, but rather directly through the air!
It was akin to lightning under the starry sky, capable of breaking through the barrier of air and striking pedestrians in its path. The Electric Serpent had sent a jolt through Ye Yu, leaving him feeling completely numb. This demonstrated just how powerful the opponent's lightning abilities were!
The thought of potentially being turned into a pile of charred remains made Ye Yu instinctively pull away from Hua Ruru.
A crackling sound of electricity rang in Ye Yu's ears, and an intense burning sensation surged through his back, enveloping his entire body. The pain was so excruciating that even Ye Yu couldn't help but grit his teeth.
In that moment, he felt as if his soul had detached from his body, leaving him in a daze. Meanwhile, Hua Ruru's eyes sparkled with delight at having avenged a great grievance, her face adorned with a playful smile.
The electric net shook violently under Ye Yu's impact but showed no signs of damage. Ye Yu felt an overwhelming frustration; while the Silver Dragon Armor boasted incredible defense, it was utterly helpless against the Electric Serpent. The electricity could seep through every gap in his skin. At that moment, Ye Yu felt as if countless tiny needles were pricking him all over, a sensation so painful and numbing that he wished he could scratch his skin off entirely!
"Hmph, daring to take advantage of me, you're the first!" Hua Ruru paused her attack as she looked at Ye Yu's distressed expression, her eyes filled with ambiguous meaning.
"I... didn't mean to," Ye Yu wanted to protest but found himself at a loss for words.
A faint blush crossed Hua Ruru's delicate face as she recalled the slightly suggestive scene from earlier, her expression shifting to one of embarrassment and anger, making her even more enchanting.
"All men are the same; they speak grandly but their bodies betray them!" Hua Ruru showed no intention of letting Ye Yu explain himself and immediately categorized him as one of those "untrustworthy" types.
Ye Yu couldn't help but chuckle bitterly; what had started as a battle now felt more like a couple bickering playfully.
However, he knew that while she was indeed a woman, she was also extremely dangerous. At that moment, all of Ye Yu's Mental Power focused on the space between them; he could sense that she was gathering strength.
Since her previous electric ball attack had failed to defeat him, it was clear she wouldn't repeat the same tactic. Although they had exchanged several blows, not much time had actually passed.
At this moment, Qin Guan was entangled with three Blue Marked People. Relying on his superior speed, even though the three Blue Marked People were formidable and had reached Third Stage combat power, they could only manage to defend themselves.
One of them was clearly unsteady on his feet, evidently injured. However, at this moment, Ye Yu noticed a young man who had not made a move; he simply stood there quietly, seemingly unaffected by the battle around him.
This young man had an extremely ordinary appearance, so much so that anyone in a crowd would overlook him. Yet at this moment, Ye Yu felt a prickling sensation on his back. Although he could not gauge the young man's strength, he sensed something terrifying about him.
In such a situation, if someone remained so calm, there were only two possibilities: either the person was incredibly foolish or extraordinarily strong. Ye Yu believed that this young man belonged to the latter category; there was no reason for a person lacking intelligence to infiltrate the Federation's territory.
Determined, Ye Yu made a decision! In an instant, his Mental Power tightened sharply, and the next moment it shot forward like a solid line directly attacking Hua Ruru's eyes!
At that moment, a sharp pain surged through Ye Yu's mind. He felt as if he were a small boat in a raging sea, on the verge of being completely submerged by the waves.
Ye Yu cursed under his breath; continuously using Mental Power had placed an immense burden on him. His Mental Power was naturally not as strong as Huang Laowai's and could not be sustained for long.
"Hmph!"
Ye Yu bit down on his tongue, and the intense pain instantly pierced through his mind. The Psychic Power that had been faltering stabilized once again due to Ye Yu's stimulus.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Ye Yu's Mental Power gathered once more and stabbed toward Hua Ruru's mind.
This was an invisible wave, yet Ye Yu felt as if he could see it as he manipulated this intangible Psychic Power to penetrate Hua Ruru's consciousness.
As long as he could disrupt her control over Lightning Power for just a moment, he could take advantage of that opportunity to escape the electric net's constraints!
Suddenly, Ye Yu felt as if the invisible wave he controlled had crashed into a thick wall; it could not penetrate Hua Ruru's mind!
"Zzzz—" Ye Yu keenly caught the sound of electricity crackling in that brief moment! In that instant, he realized that Hua Ruru had created an invisible shield around herself using electrical energy!
Ye Yu sighed inwardly, realizing that this woman was indeed formidable, having quickly found a way to counter his Psychic Power attack. Clearly, after experiencing Ye Yu's first Mental Power assault, she had already taken precautions!
However, it was not Ye Yu's style to give up at this moment! Just as his Mental Power encountered resistance, he showed no signs of backing down.
At that moment, Ye Yu's previously youthful and fair face turned crimson, with the veins in his neck bulging prominently. The veins on his forehead throbbed, and his once handsome features now appeared somewhat ferocious.
In Ye Yu's mind, a storm was brewing as all the gathered Psychic Power surged forth at that instant!
A faint sound echoed between the two of them, yet their expressions were vastly different.
Ye Yu realized that the invisible energy barrier had been breached by him, while Hua Ruru understood that she was facing the imminent loss of her autonomy once again.
Everything happened in an instant. The moment Hua Ruru's expression changed, a powerful mental stimulus shot into her mind like a steel needle.
Almost simultaneously, Hua Ruru's delicate body went limp, nearly collapsing to the ground. At that moment, the seemingly sturdy electric net cage began to waver.
"Break!" Ye Yu seized the opportunity and released every last bit of his Mental Power. In that instant, Hua Ruru could no longer hold on; the electric net cage collapsed instantly!
A blurred figure moved swiftly as Ye Yu broke free from the cage!
