Ning Cheng originally did not intend to interfere, but upon seeing that the person was the desert queen, he immediately changed his mind. The desert queen's cultivation level should be equivalent to the peak of the Eternal Realm, while the woman riding the aquatic beast had already reached the mid stage of the Shaping Dao. Even if a martial practitioner were exceedingly powerful, it would be unlikely for someone with the cultivation of the Eternal Realm to confront a mid-stage Shaper.
Facing the woman's command to kneel, the desert queen simply pressed her lips tightly together, not uttering a single word.
A hint of mockery appeared in the woman's eyes as her whip cracked down again.
If the previous lash was merely to cause the desert queen physical pain, then this one could definitely break her arm. A lash containing Dao Rhyme rules striking a practitioner merely at the level of the Eternal Realm and not breaking an arm would indeed be strange.
