Zhang Ping did not think much of Situ Shibai's plan.
So far, the Coiling Dragon Venerable had used only two abilities.
One was Black Curtain, which had spatial properties; the other was the outrageously powerful Light Cannon.
Those two moves alone were enough for the Coiling Dragon Venerable to deal with the vast majority of Awakened. No one had managed to force him to reveal anything more.
Zhang Ping did not know whether the Coiling Dragon Venerable had other abilities in reserve. That might depend on whether Situ Shibai could put up a fight. If Situ Shibai forced him to reveal more, Zhang Ping would be glad to see it—he wanted to know what trump cards the Coiling Dragon Venerable held.
Next, the tail of the giant python made of water spun at high speed, stabbing toward the Coiling Dragon Venerable in the sky like a drill.
But the Coiling Dragon Venerable still paid it no mind. Only as the python's tail reached him did he open Black Curtain. Once the tail entered it, he closed it again.
The python's tail was severed cleanly, then sent who knew where.
Rain kept falling. The giant python rapidly replenished its water, then its body suddenly split apart into a dense swarm of little snakes. Like so many whips, the water snakes attacked the Coiling Dragon Venerable from every direction.
At the same time, Situ Shibai's flesh appeared out of thin air. His skeleton, muscles, and nerve fibers regenerated in orderly fashion, swiftly rebuilding his body.
The Coiling Dragon Venerable was caught in a dilemma. If he attacked Situ Shibai, the little water snakes would surely strike his body. If he cleared away the snakes around him, he would give Situ Shibai an opening.
Zhang Ping watched the Coiling Dragon Venerable without blinking,
