The long halberd suddenly swung towards the man's... roots on his head.
"Ka!"
The long halberd sliced through the roots on the man's head like cutting through tofu. Xu Xin didn't feel any resistance at all, and the roots were already severed.
A strong surge of vitality transmitted from the halberd handle into his body, invigorating him.
Meanwhile, as planned, Li Wenxi pulled the trigger of the crossbow in her hand, targeting the man's arm holding the weapon with a precise shot.
At such a close distance, she wouldn't miss!
The man, now devoid of the treehouse's restraint, let out a strange cry and fell to the ground. The iron crossbow bolt immediately pierced his arm, breaking his bone and going right through it!
"Ah—!" The man let out a pitiful scream, and the intense pain made him unable to hold onto his long knife, which dropped from his hand. He clutched the arm pierced by an ordinary crossbow bolt, writhing on the ground in agony.
