The Sword Qi actually passed straight through the violet qi as if it was just a shadowy illusion. Ling'er, who had been corporeal just moments ago, was now enveloped in violet qi, and unexpectedly turned into the same ethereal body.
But the Sword Qi seemed to be not entirely ineffective. A deep gash slowly appeared on Ling'er's face, running from her chin to her forehead, almost destroying one eye and ruining her once beautiful visage.
"Oh?" Lin Xin was somewhat surprised. "So she had already anticipated that I would attack her?"
He turned to look at Mr. Qing's corpse.
This fellow's body had been halved, with all internal organs, including the brain, split by a single sword strike. Only now was he slowly falling to the ground, but even in death, the corners of his mouth were slightly curved upwards.
