"...Eh eh!"
When Xun Lingrui woke up from the shock-induced stupor, she opened her eyes to find the King's head directly in front of her, seemingly pressing down on her and bending down to bite, nearly frightening her into screaming. She reflexively slapped the head, sending it flying.
Huh? How could the head fly away?
Xun Lingrui regained her senses, sat up straight, and focused her gaze. Fortunately, she was covered in dust and smoke from the explosion, making her clothes tattered and dirty, revealing her white legs. But beneath, her layers of clothing were still neat; her many heavy vestment robes and talismans absorbed the damage, and her inner strength and protective true Qi were full, leaving her internal organs without major harm.
Looking up, she realized that the King was not actually assaulting her but had his head and spine pulled out, made into a human skull staff, casually stuck into the soil beside her, only to topple over... Wait, something isn't right...
