"Got it, got it!"
Although Lin Buyan sounded thoroughly impatient, there was a trace of guilt in her eyes.
She could actually have neutralized the Young Palace Master's sound-wave technique earlier, but she had wanted to see just how thoroughly Xu Taiping's body had been tempered, so she had chosen to stand by with folded arms.

"She's proficient in sound-wave techniques too?!"
The Young Palace Master of Cloudview Palace looked stunned.
Just then, Lin Buyan's flute sounded again.

By the time he realized that the overlapping waves of sound had abruptly become a tsunami spanning heaven and earth before him, it was already too late.
"Boom!"
An ear-piercing collision of sound
