Chapter 515: Deal with the Devil

Ji Yan stopped, her silver knife raised and just millimeters away from stabbing into Xu Wu Cheng. Not that she would have been able to, since his reactions were inhumanly fast. That said, the moment he focused his attention on blocking her thrust, I would have seized the opportunity to strike, so Ji Yan's hesitation caused the battle to grind into a stalemate. Both of my swords met ten of Xu Wu Cheng's blood blades, and I gritted my teeth as I tried to push them off.

Unfortunately, we were locked in the stalemate I mentioned earlier, neither one of us willing to give an inch.

"Don't listen to him," I warned, forced to back off as his ten blood blades curled and whipped at me like a striking serpent. I retreated to a safe distance, both of my swords still up as I stayed wary of the scheming snake. "He will only lie to you."

Unfortunately for me, Ji Yan was too obsessed with beating Zhao Yan to see the wisdom of my words.
