Lust shortened the sharp blade formed by her fingers, stabbing the tip towards the Boundary Line.
Lust couldn't sever the Boundary Line, but she could pierce through it; the Spear of the Strongest was not just a name.
Zzz—.
Su Xiao retracted the Boundary Line, knowing it might be pierced through.
Though Lust missed, she regained her freedom.
Once free, Lust turned and fled, not even glancing back.
Su Xiao couldn't use an Alchemy Bomb now; leaving traces would be troublesome, so he straightened up and followed.
Lust wasn't fast, and before getting far, Su Xiao slashed her back.
The blade cut through muscle and simultaneously severed Lust's spine.
Even though Lust was a homunculus, losing her spine meant she couldn't move.
With a thud, she fell to the ground, her face covered in blood as she looked at Su Xiao.
"Why, your aura is unfamiliar, we've never met."
Su Xiao didn't speak, only walking slowly towards Lust.
