Zhang Yuan's pupils contracted slightly. As he stared at the fair, delicate hands that had caught the [Primordial Form-Converging Sword], disbelief flashed in his eyes.
Had she merely caught the [Primordial Form-Converging Sword], he could have understood it. But right now, the [Primordial Form-Converging Sword] carried Sword Qi he had accumulated over an entire month.

"Hah."
A cold scoff suddenly came from
