He was only at the early stage of the True King Heavenly Venerable, and in a direct confrontation, Xu Yan was not someone he could handle. His only option was to stay hidden and launch a surprise attack.
"If I could injure Xu Yan and make a clean escape..."
Shen Kui became more and more excited.
Since Earth Shadow members were adept at stealth, they were naturally skilled in ambushing and escaping. This gave them the confidence that they could ambush Xu Yan and successfully flee with their lives.
"Here he comes!"
Shen Kui felt a bit of nervousness.
No matter how well hidden he was, facing a powerful adversary like Xu Yan meant that he would likely be discovered once he got too close.
He had to master the distance, launching a sudden attack before being noticed and ensuring the distance was close enough for the attack to occur in an instant, leaving no time for the opponent to respond.
Thus, the control of this distance was crucial.
