The reason Song Shuhang's ba— scalp went numb was that this attack was aimed at his private parts, and if a man got hurt there, their life would be over.
As if that wasn't enough, the Great Northern Emperor had just sent him outside the forbidden area. Song Shuhang had yet to return to his senses, and he was totally caught off guard by this attack.
The enemy had seized the opportunity to launch a precise and ruthless attack.
Still, even if Song Shuhang was caught off guard, the virtuous lamia was protecting him 24/7. As such, she immediately made her appearance as the enemy attacked from below. She wrapped her tail around Song Shuhang and threw him away. Then, she raised the blood bone and met the sharp sword of the enemy.
"Clang~"
That sword imbued with spiritual energy the assassin had used was sent flying after the collision with the blood bone as cracks appeared on its surface.
