A gale erupted from within the stage.
The smile on Su Lin’s face turned from complacency to viciousness as she stared at Gu Ruoyun who was being engulfed by the vortex.
She could already envision the pristine and delicate woman dead from a thousand cuts…
However, Su Lin did not get to remain complacent for very long. A ray of light suddenly sliced through the vortex with earth-shattering power, cutting the vortex in half.
Crack!
The arena stage was also split into two because of the gigantic beam of light from the blade. The white light lit up Su Lin’s sinister features and the disbelief in her eyes was clear for all to see…
A flash of green robes slowly walked out from the light. The woman’s robes were torn and tattered as though they have been sliced apart by numerous knives. However, no matter how wretched she looks, her appearance did not conceal her delicate and pristine figure.
“You…” Su Lin was so shocked that she was speechless.
She simply could not understand how this woman had managed to split the vortex into two!
However, she soon regained her senses and a sneer hung on her lips. “Gu Ruoyun, I’ve truly underestimated you, you’re more powerful than Leng Shang! However, so what? You wouldn’t be able to evade the rest of my attacks!”
This time, Su Lin was not being overconfident.
Instead, everyone knows that a cultivator at the late-stage of the exceptional state would never be able to defeat a cultivator in the early-stage of the refined state! Unless that person has a spiritual weapon!
Except…
When Su Lin noticed the broken sword in Gu Ruoyun’s hand, the disdain in her eyes increased.
On what grounds would she be able to defeat me with this damaged sword which only has its hilt and no blade?
Whoosh!
Gu Ruoyun did not bother with speeches as she attacked Su Lin instantly!
She waved the broken sword in her hand and a sharp light instantly slashed across the sky. It whirled like a cyclone around Su Lin.
When Su Lin, who had been absolutely complacent, sensed the power of the sword’s light, her expression finally showed a sign of change. She no longer dared to act arrogantly and quickly pulled out her sword. A loud clang sounded as the sword light released by Gu Ruoyun clashed with a longsword before disappearing from sight!
“Has Su Lin… Drawn her sword?”
In contrast to the dissipation of the sword light, the even more shocking thing was that Su Lin had drawn her sword!
“If my guess is correct, this sword is the middle-class spiritual weapon possessed by the Su family! What abilities does Gu Ruoyun have to cause Su Lin to draw her weapon?”
“No, that can’t be right, Gu Ruoyun’s power is not that great but that sword in her hand is a different thing altogether. It has substantially powerful spiritual energy! It’s likely that this broken sword of hers must also be a spiritual weapon! No wonder she had managed to escape from that vortex!”
“It seems that this competition is going to be even more interesting. I don’t know who Gu Ruoyun is to be able to possess such a powerful spiritual weapon! Could it be that she had also stolen this spiritual weapon from the Underworld?”
…
Su Lin clutched her sword in a tight grip as her chest rose and fell continuously. Her eyes were filled with a deep hatred!
It was obvious that having to draw her weapon was a humiliating thing to her.
The cause of her humiliation was this woman before her…
“Gu Ruoyun, I won’t allow you to humiliate me anymore!” She contained the fiery rage in her heart as she stared haughtily down at Gu Ruoyun. “I will defeat you in three strikes!”
Once Su Lin had finished speaking, she no longer wasted any time and charged towards Gu Ruoyun like a bolt of lightning.
At that moment, the crowd felt as if their vision had blurred and the white-robed Su Lin had vanished. When she reappeared again, she was already in front of Gu Ruoyun. The longsword in her hand released an ice-blue light as if a blue dragon had surged out from within, aiming to swallow Gu Ruoyun whole!
