"Gao Xian!"
Withered Leaf and White Brow, the two Heavenly Lords, recognized Gao Xian at a glance. Even if they had never met him in person, they had seen him countless times through water mirrors.
That figure in white robes with a sword at his waist was all too familiar to them.
There were countless cultivators in the world who wore white and carried swords, yet no one could imitate Gao Xian's bearing and grace.
And within Bright Heaven, before the Three Lives Bright Mirror, it was even less possible for it to be anyone else.
Heavenly Lord Withered Leaf and Heavenly Lord White Brow withdrew their attacks at the same time. Gao Xian was sinister and vicious, and loved nothing more than launching sneak attacks from behind. In such circumstances, continuing to pursue a female sword cultivator was far too dangerous.
The two seventh-rank Buddhist Heavenly Lords had cultivated for tens of thousands of years, yet they remained exceedingly wary of Gao Xian.
Their guarded posture was so obvious that Gao Xian could easily read the two old monks' emotional state, even see what they were thinking.
Gao Xian was slightly surprised as well. The powerful figures of the South Sea Nine Sects were actually this afraid of him?
For seventh-rank Heavenly Lords to show it so plainly and directly struck him as rather strange.
Gao Xian recognized the two old monks as well. He knew the powerful figures of the South Sea Nine Sects quite well, after all—they were all his enemies.
Withered Leaf was gaunt and withered, clad in black, his body thin and dry. White Brow's long white eyebrows were also striking and easy to identify. More importantly, the two old monks possessed deep mana, and the techniques they employed bore distinct characteristics.
