"You are really... full of surprises."
In the abattoir-like scene, Yasui Tokiyuki stepped over the bisected colossal corpse in front of him, staring at the blood-soaked Fu Qian.
The massive fractured blade, covered with filthy blood, was slowly retracting into the wielder's hand.
Just a moment ago, the other had traversed space with an incomprehensible technique.
Like before, the prepared deadly blow meant to decisively execute the monster had unexpectedly struck right in front of him.
Initially, he thought this guy had a natural bloodlust, purposely creating that spectacle of a beheading from the ground, but he was actually being misled all along.
The change was so abrupt that Yasui Tokiyuki had no time to materialize any shields and had no choice but to use the monster's physical body to take the blow.
Even so, some of the blood on the blade still came from him.
