Ye Jin tensed up when she saw Ye Shixiao's vicious expression. She kept her footsteps quiet and walked to the door. She reached out and gently placed her hand on the door latch. Then, she turned around and gave her father an inquiring look.
Ye Shixiao tightened his grip on the hammer in his hand and nodded imperceptibly.
Ye Jin, who had received the signal, immediately lifted the latch and opened the door. Almost at the same time, Ye Shixiao strode forward and swung the hammer in his hand at the figure outside the door!
Clang—
With the crisp sound of metal colliding, sparks flew in all directions. The hammer in Ye Shixiao's hand was also sent flying by a huge force. He took three steps back and only stopped when his back hit the forging table heavily.
On the other hand, the young man outside the door only swayed slightly before regaining his foothold. He held a saber as long as his forearm with one hand.
