At the same time Mu Guiqing was dueling Qi Yaotian, news of the situation reached both the Puyang Clan and the Yuchi Clan.
The attitudes of the two royal clans were surprisingly unanimous:
"It seems Mu Guiqing's relationship with Jiang Feng is anything but ordinary. She actually dared to duel a fourth-level True God Realm expert for Jiang Feng's sake!"
"Inform the spies: do not act rashly. This is an opportunity to probe the forces behind Jiang Feng!"
Clearly, they all believed that Mu Guiqing was absolutely no match for Qi Yaotian.
Once Mu Guiqing was defeated, Qi Yaotian would certainly make a move against Jiang Feng.
At that point, the hidden experts behind Jiang Feng would inevitably reveal themselves.
Only after determining the true strength of this hidden force behind Jiang Feng would they dare make further plans.
In the air, the sword radiance and the saber shield remained locked in a stalemate.
Within the countless saber shields, Qi Yaotian sensed a threat.
He had not expected Mu Guiqing to drive the power of a divine skill to such a degree!
He frantically channeled his divine power. Endless saber radiance intertwined, constantly replenishing the saber shield's expenditure.
Urged on by him, the saber radiance tore at the sword radiance that had already pierced into the saber shield.
As the sword radiance continued to press forward, tearing through layer after layer of saber shields, it too was rapidly being depleted.
The two powers steadily canceled and weakened each other amid the constant attrition.
By the time the sword radiance completely tore through the saber shield and pointed straight at Qi Yaotian, it had already weakened to its limit.
The saber shield shattered. With a thought, Qi Yaotian raised a divine power barrier, blocking the sword radiance that had reached him.
