Without his time attacks and sneak-up, Xuan knew he wasn't a match for a combustion stage 04, and the gap between them was highly obvious.
Xuan got thrown in the air, slamming his body against a tree. "Kweuk!" He coughed out blood as he fell on a knee.
Then the grinning assassin he was staring at immediately disappeared from his naked eye and appeared behind them.
"Xuan, behind you!!!" yelled Zhao Lan almost at the same time.
"Sliiish!"
Though Xuan reacted to her warning by jumping away, he still got a cut on his arm, bleeding profusely with his messed-up face.
"For a martial realm eight, you're the first to last this long, but come on, you're no challenge."
"Really?" Xuan smirked, cleaning the blood beside his lips. "Then why don't you pull off that charm of yours?"
Although the time freeze wouldn't work, those fast attacks Xuan could rewind five seconds back, then counter.
