Severing the Western Wilderness, Barring All Passage

Shi Xuan showed neither despondency nor indignation. Instead, he gave a bitter smile. "If Rakshasa Divine Lord attacks the Shangqing Shenxiao Realm, I have more than a sixty percent chance of severely wounding her. Unfortunately, she will not do so."
