"Using a live bait?"
"Ka-cha."
Razor-sharp blades ejected out of Chao Long's arms like machinery. Under the moonlight, they reflected a cold, cruel glint.
"Swish!"
The two of them moved lightning quick at the same exact instant.
Saber and arms drew arcs of black light in the air as they crossed paths with each other.
"Ultimate Crimson—Divine Might!!"
With a flip of his saber, Lu Sheng brought it down in a cleaving movement towards Chao Long's head. A crimson glow radiated off his saber blade, turning into a large dense crimson saber web in the blink of an eye, enveloping the entire courtyard and coming down on Chao Long.
"There's no need for us to fight each other. This is meaningless."
Chao Long rapidly retreated, leaping clear of the range of Lu Sheng's saber. Even then, however, a corner of his robe had been caught by the crimson glow, instantly lighting up into a small ball of flame.
