"Xie, it's called Evil Fiend."
"Evil Fiend..."
The words stirred memories in Mo Xie, and a wave of nostalgia washed over him.
The next instant, his eyes narrowed. He swung his right arm, and the black blade wrapped around it sliced through the air, sending a black arc of light straight ahead.
The gleaming silver-white floor split at once. The crack raced to the far end of the palace walkway before the arc struck the solid wall, throwing up a cloud of smoke.
When the smoke cleared, a terrifying crack stretched from Mo Xie's feet to the far end. A huge hole had been blasted into the wall, leaving it caved in.
But in the blink of an eye, a crystalline glow flickered across the wall and floor. Tiny lights hovered over the cracks and the hole like fireflies.
As the intertwined golden and blood-red lights sank into them, the floor and wall returned to their original state, as though nothing had happened.
Mo Xie paid no mind to the strange sight. His eyes shone as he studied the black blade on his arm, delighted with it.
He had barely used any force, yet the strike had been terrifying. If he channeled his Magic Energy into it, it might be even stronger.
"Yes, that's right. It's called Evil Fiend."
Seeing how reluctant Mo Xie was to put it away, the Queen of the Spider Lily beamed. She pressed her red lips together and explained with a smile.
"Evil Fiend can also be called Shadow Fiend. It's a special ability of the Shadow Scion. As the Shadow Descendant King, you naturally possess it, but in your hands, it has become Evil Fiend."
"With Evil Fiend, your shadow can become your weapon. You can shape it however you wish with your mind.
