The conversation had ended, and Gu Qingshan didn't wait any longer.
"Go!"
At his quiet command, three black shadows leaped away.
Sword shadows filled the air.
The Heaven Sword, Tide's Roar, and Six Realms God Mountain Sword slashed through the air in succession, only to be knocked flying by the Light Flame Skeleton's massive axe.
