Just in that glance, a piercing and intense murderous intent suddenly came from beside him. Almost entirely out of reflex, Xie Guangying's pupils constricted as he turned his head, his waist-borne longsword ringing out from its sheath.
The blade was now meeting the cold tiger-like pounce of Xiao Tingshu.
He had not been unlocked from the Mysterious Qi seal, so his speed was still very slow. At that moment, Xie Guangying should have controlled the sword and stabbed, nailing him to the stone column behind.
But he was Lotus Heart Pavilion's most junior and the only Tuan Shen, but this powerful and authoritative face had never so heart-thumpingly pressed down before his eyes, but he was not fighting alone, a mere step back and others would immediately react....
In short, he had countless reasons not to meet this instant of solitary combat, and without knowing what card the man had up his sleeve, Xie Guangying abandoned his sword and leapt back.
A fatal mistake was thus made.
