Xiao Ran watched this scene, tightening his grip on the greatsword in his hand.
He held the greatsword across his chest.
"My heart is iron, unbreakable and indestructible!!"
Li Xuanxiao raised an eyebrow.
Xiao Ran stomped down heavily, his body soaring high like an arrow loosed from its bow as he charged straight at Su Wan.
So what if she was a Nascent Soul cultivator!!
Su Wan's sword suddenly came down.

Those lightning spears blazed with dazzling light.
Xiao Ran's figure vanished into the lightning.

The white light faded into nothingness.
So powerful it was practically outrageous...
Li Xuanxiao could not help clicking his tongue.
He could only feel his own weakness.
He could not help touching the sweat on his forehead. What kind of heaven-defying monstrosity was this?
The standoff lasted for a full half incense stick's time.

One figure swiftly flashed forward. Lu Ziyin caught Su Wan as she fell from the sky with one hand.

He then landed firmly, his chest heaving violently.
Lu Ziyin stared at Xiao Ran in astonishment.
Golden Core... breaking through to Nascent Soul!?
Within that lightning just now, Xiao Ran had actually completed a breakthrough in cultivation.
A blessing in disguise—the lightning filling the sky that Su Wan had gathered had aided Xiao Ran.
