Zhang Yuanqing had just ridden the wind out of the building when the sword light neared the intersection.
He immediately realized flying would not be enough to make up the distance. He promptly used the Star Escape Art and barely caught up with the tail end of the sword light.
The next second, the sword light reached the intersection.
