"Senior, cover me for a moment."
"Don't let that madman Zhao Mou notice my movements."
Before the Azure-Eyed Evil Lord could ask for details, Xu Taiping's voice rang out in his mind once more.
After a moment's thought, the Azure-Eyed Evil Lord nodded decisively and said:
"Just don't die in the bamboo grove!"
With that, he shook both sleeves and sent out more than ten flying swords in one go.

The Azure-Eyed Evil Lord snorted coldly, then swept his hand and abruptly poured a great quantity of sword qi
