With a flap of her wings, Lady Butterfly shot out dozens, even hundreds, of Flying Needles. They whistled sharply through the air, but Lü Zhong blocked them all with his Cloud Dragon Wind Tiger Barrier, producing a series of sharp clinks. A moment later, with the roar of a dragon and the howl of a tiger, the Spiritual Barrier broke apart into illusory images of a dragon and a tiger that charged toward the completely naked Demon Cultivator.
In a few flashes of her butterfly-like form, she bypassed the illusory images and appeared directly in front of Lü Zhong.
A short, vermilion-lacquered blade with gold accents appeared in Lady Butterfly's hand. This blade was named "Zhuanghong." It was two feet long with a blade no wider than two fingers, and it was a Middle-grade Spiritual Artifact. She had obtained it by killing a True Disciple of the Celestial Blade Sect, one of the Seven Southern Barbarian Sects. It had been a protective artifact bestowed upon the disciple by his sect elders.
