In an instant, Gongsun Zhishui's heart began pounding wildly.
He could no longer remember how many years it had been since he had experienced something like this. When was the last time he had felt such unbearable fear...?
Was it the first time he had stepped onto the arena for the cadre's "Golden Sword General" trial, or the first time he had entered the Xuanyuan Palace battlefield and faced an enemy he could not defeat?
His memories instantly disrupted Gongsun Zhishui's will beyond his control. Yet the moment he regained consciousness, the breathtakingly beautiful woman before him was already holding a burning Black Flame Cross Sword.
As she moved, her gorgeous skirt billowed in the air. Her speed was not especially fast, but after losing focus, Gongsun Zhishui had only just come to his senses when he managed to swing the Ancient Sword in his hand to block.
He blocked it!
To Gongsun Zhishui's surprise, he had easily stopped the woman's strike. Judging from the impact transmitted through the Ancient Sword, it was still within the range he could withstand.
Though the web between his thumb and forefinger had gone slightly numb from it.
However, before Gongsun Zhishui could think about his next move, an unexpected force suddenly struck his wrist. At the same time, an unbearable, violent power erupted from the blade!
There was a second burst of power after contact!
The ancient, unadorned sword was knocked straight out of Gongsun Zhishui's hand. His arm was dragged aside by the sword as it slipped free because he could no longer hold on.
In that split second, the beautiful woman before him suddenly lowered her body. The Black Flame Cross Sword changed angles and swept horizontally across Gongsun Zhishui's front!
This was her real speed!
Gongsun Zhishui's pupils rapidly dilated.
