Bang!
The door slammed shut. Lin Qian turned the tables, pinning her against the corner with a hand braced on the wall.
He had seen everything that had just happened. The reason he had held back was that the time had not been right. Now...
It was time!
Gu Yuena was stunned by the young man's actions. She had never expected a mere human to dare turn heaven and earth upside down and restrain her!
Before resorting to force, she offered courtesy first, voicing her question. "Aren't you afraid of me?"
Lin Qian smiled. "The Silver Dragon King is a split soul of the Dragon God, the Soul Beast Co-Ruler. If you really attacked, how could I stop you? I might as well enjoy myself thoroughly before I die~"
Thump!
No sooner had he finished speaking than Gu Yuena sent him flying with a palm strike, leaving him sprawled on the floor.
This woman really was trying to kill me. Fuck!
Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. Half leaning against the table, Lin Qian struggled to prop himself up. "The Dragon God's might certainly lives up to its reputation. A pity your hidden injuries limit your strength, or I'd already be in the ground!"
He even knows about my hidden injuries!
A trace of wariness flashed through Gu Yuena's beautiful eyes. Before she knew it, she had raised her hand again. "My strength is not for a human like you to question..."
"Stop!"
The Emerald Swan, Bi Ji, emerged from the Sea of Consciousness, crying out as she shielded Lin Qian.
Gu Yuena frowned. "Bi Ji, she took your Soul Ring and brought about your death and the end of your cultivation. Why are you still speaking up for him?"
That was where Lin Qian's efforts came in.
