Pei Ling immediately steadied his mind and spoke in the same icy, booming voice: "Reverse!"
His bent body straightened halfway through the motion.
The Liulan Dynasty Cultivator was likewise affected by the reversed law. His body twitched against his will, but in the end, he only stiffened slightly before quickly raising a finger and pointing it at Pei Ling.
