Huff! Huff!
After Venerable Yanjin's aura erupted and broke through Li Xunhuan's blade intent pressure, he immediately took several heavy breaths, fear flickering in his eyes.
In that instant just now, he had only felt a terrifying Divine Intent Blade Light slash directly at his soul.
Had he not reacted quickly, that blade's divine intent would likely have cut away half his soul, turning him into an idiot.
Li Xunhuan was only one minor realm above him, at the late Celestial Phenomenon Realm. Why, then, was the intent of his soul so ancient and sharp?
As the scene fell silent, a crisp metallic ring sounded.
"Li Xunhuan of the Prince of Qin's Manor greets the Venerable. I believe Venerable Yanjin should be a man who understands courtesy!"
A trace of coldness lay in Li Xunhuan's eyes, and his tone carried no emotion whatsoever. His right fingertips played with a Bintie Flying Dagger. From time to time, his fingers curled slightly, flicking the dagger and making it ring with endless dings.
The mere sound of that cold blade made everyone around them shudder, their hairs standing on end.
Venerable Yanjin, whom Li Xunhuan had been staring at all this while, saw a faint phantom of blade light on that flying dagger. The Blade Intent Heavenly Might capable of cleaving through all things had already locked onto him.
Venerable Yanjin's pupils constricted. Li Xunhuan had killing intent!
"Venerable Yanjin of the Five Elements Heavenly Sect greets the Prince of Qin!"
At this point, Venerable Yanjin could no longer afford to maintain his pride. He turned sideways and cupped his hands toward Chu Xuanao in greeting. Though his tone remained somewhat indifferent, none of his previous arrogance could be sensed any longer.
Mm, he was not confident he could deal with Li Xunhuan.
