Zhong Ming was not weak, but Xie Yuzhu was simply stronger.
She was at the mid-stage of Qi Cultivation and had been tempered by Heavenly and Earthly Treasures. This allowed her to control seven flying swords at once, each moving with incredible speed and immense force.
Each time, Zhong Ming had to use his full strength just to parry her attacks.
What frustrated him even more was that she had seven such swords.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
The seven flying swords crisscrossed to form a net of blades, threatening to trap and kill him.
WHOOSH…
It was only because Zhong Ming's Swordsmanship, Stepping Technique, and Breathing Skill had all reached the Third Realm of Refinement that he could endure. He could also rely on his Flow of Water to conjure Mist and Illusion Techniques; otherwise, he would have been completely overwhelmed.
But even so, Zhong Ming was struggling to defend himself.
However, Zhong Ming's performance had already satisfied Granny Lan, who had accompanied Xie Yuzhu.
