Watching the battle, Liuyun saw the sword's dazzling light and instinctively raised his palm to counterattack. His palm became a giant golden hand that aimed to intercede in the fight.
Seeing this, the rival player didn't intend to face it head-on.
His initial choice to attack Liuyun's eyes was purely to exploit the predictable reaction.
As Liuyun reacted, the rival quickly evaded the path of Liuyun's force, and his sword turned towards Yang Buhui instead.
The mission from his sect was clear from the beginning - to apprehend or kill Yang Buhui.
So, any attacks he launched at others were just diversions.
Yang Buhui was his true target!
And Liuyun —having just made his attack— was in no position to provide immediate assistance.
Seeing this scene, Ye Weiming reflected an expression of cunning satisfaction at the corner of his mouth.
This rival really couldn't keep themselves contained!
