Far from them were Ming Yue and Qing Chai, the former having landed on her feet while the latter fell into the swamp water.
Ming Yue stood away from the edge and began to form dozens of lances, condensing them to the size of her arm. And then she waited. The surface of the swamp continued to ripple before bubbles climbed up. Suddenly, a hand shot out, grasping at the edge of the swamp before the Red Empress climbed out.
Her lovely robes were wet and ripped, revealing more of her body.
She panted heavily, a quiet hissing sound resonating with each breath. Looking up she glared at Ming Yue with a hateful rage.
"You... you killed my daughters. All of them! With the help of those other pathetic humans!" she spat out.
The young cultivator just stood and watched. Her silence and stillness only incensed Qing Chai even further.
"I'll kill you! I'll kill you!"
