Swept aside by a blast of Sword Qi, branches fell to the ground. The Great Sword Master charged toward Ling Xiao without hesitation, his clothes whipping wildly in the wind.
Ye Wen Ni was still hesitating. Ling Xiao calmly watched the blade speeding toward him, a disdainful smirk playing on his lips. Before his journey to the Great Snow Mountain, an attack of this level might have given him some trouble. But after the life-and-death trials there, he had broken through the rank of Sword Attendant to become a Sword Master. His reflexes and power were now on par with a Tier Three or Tier Four Sword Master. With the Nine Swords of Dugu at his command, this Great Sword Master's attack was no threat at all.
But Ling Xiao didn't move. He was waiting for Ye Wen Ni, who stood beside him, to make a move.
That's right. He was training her.
