As soon as he finished speaking, the Pope's Scepter took shape in Bibi Dong's hand.
She said nothing more. She thrust the scepter forward, and the gem at its tip glowed deep purple beneath the moonlight.
Xiao Yun had already drawn the Wishful Soul-Controlling Staff from his storage space as she attacked. He raised it over his head with one hand and caught the first blow of her scepter on its middle section.
