Xun Wei vanished.
In a blur, her sword snapped back into her grasp—clenched between her teeth, just as Chu Piao once had during the Black Paradise Sect's tournament. In the same heartbeat, one of the soldiers was cleaved cleanly in half.
"Defense formation!" someone screamed.
Xun Wei became a ghost, her figure flickering through the trees.
Although her Qi was depleted, and her body was fatigued, her spirit was still very much alive and stronger than ever.
At the same time, the boy's tear-filled eyes followed her movement with terrifying clarity when no one else could.
'I can see,' he thought, but then he saw something alarming.
He didn't question his vision, he simply sprung into action.
Gritting his teeth, he grabbed his father's sword again and moved.
Just as Xun Wei descended to strike, the boy appeared exactly where she intended to be.
