Langde seized the perfect opportunity and threw the bat short staff in his hand. With his strength, if Ai Wei were hit at the heart, she would be severely injured if not dead. Either way, it would be a bad omen for Ai Wei.
Ai Wei swung the Soul-devouring Blade in her hand with full force at the bat short staff. With a swish, the blade sliced through, and the bat short staff broke into several pieces, which clattered to the ground with a smooth-as-silk cut.
Although she severed the bat short staff, the immense force still pushed her back repeatedly. By the time she steadied herself, Langde's figure had already disappeared from sight.
Ai Wei frowned slightly, suddenly sensing danger from behind. But she was too late to react; Langde somehow appeared behind her, his massive bat wings opening and clutching Ai Wei's shoulders, sharp claws piercing into her arm muscles, locking her tightly.
