Selina was displeased and terrified by how Coleman gazed at her. Mandy was frightened as well, but with her brother around, she summoned the confidence to scold him. "What are you looking at?"
Coleman laughed with a vulgar expression still on his face. "You have such a big temper for a girl your age. I'm looking at how pretty you are. Can I?"
His companions laughed too. Finally, Sandra could not stand it anymore. She glared at Coleman and rebuked, "What a bunch of shameless men! Who are you to make trouble here? I'm Sandra, a Heavenly Dragon Sect disciple. Scram if you don't want to die!"
She thought that the Heavenly Dragon Sect was one of the most famous and prominent sects in the Cryolet Continent. She would just need to reveal its name, and the rogues would run for their life. However, she was wrong. Those men were notorious bandits. They were not easily scared.
'A Heavenly Dragon Sect disciple?' Marvin was stunned when he heard Sandra's words. However, then he sneered at her. "What a temper! So, you are a disciple from a famous sect?"
Coleman and the rest burst out laughing. "Heavenly Dragon Sect? So what? Do you think we will be scared?" He teased arrogantly. "Do you know who he is? He is the infamous River Dragon."
'What?' Sandra trembled and looked at Marvin with disbelief. 'He… he is the notorious River Dragon, Marvin Stallard?'
Marvin was just a bandit, and he was no match for the Heavenly Dragon Sect. However, that place was not the sect's base, and Sandra was only a female disciple. She could not defeat Marvin if they fought one-on-one. Despite that, Sandra did not back off. She could tell Marvin was injured, and his men were no one important. She was not afraid of them.
Sandra shouted at Marvin. "So. you are that scum. I'm going to exterminate you on behalf of the cultivators." She raised her hand and drew the sword she had carried with her.
Sandra's conduct piqued Marvin's interest, but he was not upset. "You want to fight me?"
Coleman also drew his sword with a cheeky look on his face. "What a spicy one. Come, I'll play with you!" He moved his sword to reflect light as he finished his sentence and fought with Sandra ferociously.
Sandra's sword continued to collide with Coleman's sword, causing a lot of noise. Sandra's confidence waned after a few rounds, and her delicate face took on a somber expression. Coleman was just Marvin's rogue, she assumed. She was not expecting him to be that powerful.
Coleman laughed at Sandra when she was stunned. After that, he twisted his wrist and slapped Sandra. The slap's angle was quite weird. Sandra could not avoid it, so she clenched her teeth, summoned her inner strength, and countered with her palm.
The air surrounding them vibrated as their palms connected in the next second. Coleman's cheeks flushed, and his body trembled, prompting him to take a few steps backward. Coleman was not Sandra's opponent when it came to internal energy because Sandra had been learning from a well-known sect.
Coleman felt the pain in his chest. He stood steadily and looked at Sandra in surprise. "Oh, wow, I didn't expect you to have such high internal energy." However, he did not panic. He called out to the others behind him. "The rest of you, come on. Let's play with this pretty girl!"
After that, five to six more men joined the fight. When Darryl saw that, he grimaced. 'Sh*t! Those bandits have no dignity at all. How dare so many of them fight a single woman?"
