1116 Lightning and Nothingness

The fading sword-light evaporated into nothingness as an enormous beam of lightning burst from within the mist, its power pushing aside Ji'Han's remnant power like it was dust. The arena flashed a brilliant blue, its brightness causing many to raise their hands to shield their eyes. 

His instincts flaring with grave warning for the first time in years, Ji'Han's confident expression vanished, replaced by a grim yet firm expression. 

"Tch," he clicked his tongue, silently chastising himself for allowing John to unleash his Kirin-God Extinction. He had made the bold claim to Lilian just days ago that he would never allow John to unleash this long-channeled attack, but that boast had been shattered just minutes into their battle. That failure alone caused Ji'Han to feel a slight anger he rarely felt, the anger of failure.
