The Myriad Manifestations Umbrella in broadsword form wasn't bright, and its shape was so strange that it was laughable. But when it came plummeting down, carrying a strong gust of wind, even Zhou Zekai couldn't laugh. 

Ye Xiu didn't dodge, didn't retreat. Just like this, he met the attack head on. Under the rain of bullets, Lord Grim slashed forward with a Collapsing Mountain. 

With Zhou Zekai's level of control, he could easily change the angle of Cloud Piercer's attack to land many shots upon Lord Grim's body. But so what? 

He could damage Lord Grim, but he couldn't stop the fall of Lord Grim's Collapsing Mountain. In terms of attack priority, long-range attacks were no match for close-range, this was a design that Zhou Zekai couldn't change. Even if he could use the Level 75 Thunder Snipe and blast Lord Grim's head again, he couldn't force Lord Grim back. 

Ye Xiu understood this point extremely clearly. To defeat a long-range class, he could only advance, and could not retreat.
