The short-haired woman was an expert at the Mid Earth Realm, and not a single move from the four, including Guu Jianfei, would succeed against her. Thus, seeing her take action, Ye Wutian immediately threw a Silver Needle he had prepared earlier, targeting the short-haired woman. His sole purpose was to halt her movements.
He had considered catching her off guard and using a big move like Flicking Thunder to take her down in one strike, but after careful thought, he decided it was better to try to reason with her first. If they could resolve the issue through negotiation, that would, of course, be the best outcome.
Sensing the hidden weapon coming from the side, the short-haired woman quickly halted her charge and swung her sword to block.
"Ding!~"
Amid the grating sound of metal clashing, she effortlessly deflected the Silver Needle.
