Su Jiu understood the man's expression, but she could not grasp what was going through his mind.
She could sense that this was merely a probe, yet she could not understand what purpose it served. Was he testing the extent of her strength?

First, he truly was a demon, not a human, because only a demon's attacks could remain entirely unaffected by her own ice spiritual qi.
Yes, Su Jiu had added no innate origin qi to her first Ice Wall. Only the second had been formed entirely from pure innate origin qi.
But... a demon... a demon?
How could a demon have been active in the Azure Realm for ten thousand years without ever being discovered!?
