The man rushed behind Elder Life Crane in an instant. The steel blade coiled around his thick tail was as wide and heavy as half a door, and he swung it viciously at Elder Life Crane's neck.
As if clearing the stage, the gale from the blade blew away the surrounding blood mist, instantly revealing a thirty-foot radius around the two of them.
But even as the powerful, heavy blade was about to fall upon Elder Life Crane's neck, he made no move. Instead, He Tou abruptly turned its head, its eyes filled with a crazed killing intent.
"My dear eldest disciple, who are you trying to kill?"
BANG!
The steel blade ultimately stopped just a foot from Elder Life Crane's neck, as if it had struck an invisible barrier, unable to advance another inch.
"Master… you are both my good masters! It's all the same who I kill! If I can kill you both… then grant your disciple's wish!"
"Die!"
