Chapter 775: Lian the Wise

Suyin fought with the desperation for survival that Arthur hoped she would have. But, although the two were evenly matched, trading one wound for another, Suyin seemed calmer the longer it went.

Arthur sat far away, ready to intervene at a moment's notice. Although a spiritual contract couldn't be dissipated, Arthur might be able to heal her. Of course, the clone might do the same and get healed, but it was better than letting her die.

'She needs no safety net but a survival instinct,' thought Arthur as the woman received another wound on her leg, making her fall to the ground. The clone took the chance to jump her, bringing her sword down, but Suyin pierced with her blade.

At long last, the blade pierced the clone's neck. It struggled for a moment as blood filled her throat before it dissipated, turning into a small sphere that entered Suyin's body.
