"Playing hide-and-seek with me? Sorry, but hide-and-seek is what I hate most."
The corners of Ye Lin's mouth curled up slightly as he slowly raised a hand, countless strands of Sword Qi swirling around his palm.

Ye Lin snorted softly, then slowly pressed his palm downward.

"No... I can't move... I can't move at all."
