His first disappearance went unnoticed by Xi Duofu who was under the influence of the Seven Sounds Burst, his mind a blank slate. But this second time felt incredibly real. In a flash of light, Ye Yinzhu had vanished, and Xi Duofu, along with a branch, swept past where Ye Yinzhu had been. The sensation of misdirected force carried the Zi rank Great War Master ten meters away before he could stabilize himself, a sense of constriction in his chest. Yet as he was still carried by his momentum, the cutting Sound Blades had already reached his back.
Asis and Li Sha had the clearest view; Ye Yinzhu's disappearance lasted only an instant. But it was during that fleeting moment that he evaded Xi Duofu's attack, reappearing just behind him as another set of Sound Blades shot forth from the Desolate Dragon Yin's Zither.
