Wang Ruoxie stood up somewhat disheveled, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and silently gave a bitter smile in his heart. It seems he had underestimated Xiahou Wei's strength.
He originally thought that by using the Blood Burning Technique, and burning as much as fifty percent of his Qi and Blood, he could at least hold his own against the opponent. Even if he couldn't win, he should be able to retreat completely.
However, he didn't expect Xiahou Wei to be significantly more powerful than he estimated. His Upper Grade Spiritual Artifact Longsword was actually broken by a single palm strike from the opponent.
Clearly, even though Xiahou Wei only had the Cultivation of the First Layer of the Meridian Passage Realm, his strength far exceeded that of ordinary people of the same level.
This meant that even using the Blood Burning Technique, he still couldn't contend with the opponent.
