Dust burst in every direction, and shattered stones flew through the air.
A small crater appeared in the ground, with a little purple sword embedded in it.

Fang Yuan took a deep breath and brushed the dust off himself. Then he saw Xu Junzi, whose face was forever wreathed in a smile. "It seems... you two are in cahoots. This isn't your first time robbing and killing people, is it? Aren't you afraid Dao Ancestor City will punish you?"
