Spurred by her expression, Lin Heng hurriedly pulled out the Nine Heavens Sword and withdrew to Jiang Caiyan's side.
Something was strange!
Never mind how powerful his sword strike had been, it had been aimed straight at the dantian in her abdomen. Even a "divine infant" would have been pierced through.
