Xiao Qixiu had an expression of despair on his face.
He knew the other man was not bragging at all. Since he knew who the man was, he could attest to the man's abilities better than anyone else.
Only those who truly knew the masked man would realize he was not acting pompous. He was merely stating the truth.
"Your sword is shaking."
The masked man pointed out casually. He looked at Xiao Qixiu, who was still in shock, and he continued.
"I see a swordsman who can't even hold his sword properly in front of his enemy. How could such a swordsman even think of protecting anyone else then?"
It should be something you must remember, especially when you stand in front of the man you fear facing the most."
Xiao Qixiu looked at Su Qianqian, who was still in his arms, and the look in his eyes hardened.
The masked man was right. Regardless of who the enemy may be, or how powerful they were, he should never allow his sword to shake.
