Sun Shangxiang defeated, Da Qiao draws her sword

"Terrible news! Terrible news!"

Mother Sun was resting in the palace when she suddenly heard someone shouting.

"What has you so frightened?"

Even her dreams frightened her these days. Since her husband's death, her fear had grown stronger by the day. Could something be about to happen to her children?

She had never expected someone to actually come running in a panic.

"An immortal has come!"

Huh?

An immortal? Was it that Yu Ji again?

The old woman did not particularly mind Daoist priests, but Sun Ce could not stand them.

Hadn't he died?

Oh, apparently he had come back to life.

She rose and headed toward Sun Shangxiang's quarters. Before long, she heard the metallic clash of weapons.

She stepped into the courtyard.

There she saw Sun Shangxiang fighting a woman wielding a Fangtian Huaji.

"Excellent swordsmanship!"

Sun Shangxiang fought Lü Lingqi with a sword in each hand.

"There aren't many women in this world who can match me!"

Sun Shangxiang thrust both swords at once.

"What good is your swordsmanship, however strong it is? Can you cleave mountains and sever rivers?"

Lü Lingqi exerted just a little strength, and as though by immortal magic, rendered both of Sun Shangxiang's swords useless.

"You really do use sorcery!"

Displeased, Sun Shangxiang drew her sword and fought her way into the room. Lü Lingqi smiled, and only then did Sun Shangxiang realize she had fallen for a substitution trick.

Sure enough.

When she looked back, she was already standing in the Cloud Palace.

"What is this place?"

"Haven't you heard of the Heavenly Palace?"

Lü Lingqi pinned Sun Shangxiang in place with her Fangtian Huaji, while Sun Shangxiang's eyes filled with resentment.

"Were you sent by that Yu Ji?"

"Whether we were or not is none of your concern."

Lü Lingqi
