Gu Ye was indeed a terrifying figure, but Qin Yu never knew just how strong he was when he went all out. Tonight, she finally understood.
A single sword strike revealed the truth.
"Why is he so strong? His abilities should only be about twenty to thirty percent higher than mine, and when it comes to reaction time and such, I am even better. I thought the only area where I was lacking compared to him was inner strength."
But now it was obvious that wasn't all.
——The sword is merely a tool to you, but to them, it is a path, that's the difference.
Hmm, Qin Yu barely understood, but she knew she hadn't reached that state, so she stopped dwelling on it, not having the time to anyway — she could feel Gu Ye catching up from behind.
Calculating the time and distance, she knew she'd be caught and assassinated by Gu Ye before even escaping Qiwang Mountain.
What to do?
Qin Yu changed her escape route, heading straight for the lake at the mountain's summit!
