Sword Qi tore through the air, crisp and sharp.
The moment it appeared, it carried a piercing shriek that ripped through the air, splitting to strike everyone in the field.
Feeling the incoming Sword Qi, Li Piaoyue narrowed her eyes. This Sword Qi felt as plain and unremarkable as ever, yet her instincts inexplicably filled her with unease.
Especially when the corner of her eye swept over Su Shi'er's figure ahead, Li Piaoyue blinked, and that unease deepened all the more.
Something seemed slightly off with Senior Brother Su.
He had definitely not taken those few strands of Sword Qi lightly just now.
But why had he...
Before she could make sense of it, Xu Yang's impatient voice rang out beside her.
"Hmph! You pretentious fool, and you dare flaunt such petty tricks to make a fool of yourself?"
With a disdainful snort, Xu Yang gathered his True Yuan to the fullest. Without even activating his flying sword, the Sun Seal between his brows flashed, and a vast aura erupted from his body.
With a wave of his hand, surging True Yuan transformed into several waves of force, crashing fiercely toward the fierce wind and Sword Qi flying at him and his companions.
Xu Yang had seen clearly how Su Shi'er had taken the attack just now.
In his view, the Sword Qi within the wind had been utterly plain and unremarkable. This was clearly no more than the opponent's probing move.
Otherwise, Su Shi'er could not possibly have received it so easily.
Had the opponent used an ultimate move, he might not have dared to underestimate them.
But a probing move... he believed that whether in cultivation realm or strength, he was no weaker than Su Shi'er.
What Su Shi'er could do, he could naturally do as well!
