However, just as he had prepared himself to fight to the death to carve out a slim chance of survival for Alkaid, a Divine Sense reached him, unheard and unnoticed: "My attack will devour tens of thousands of miles of the starry skies around us. Take this chance to twist the Void and send Alkaid away. If you're quick, you might escape from Jiang Heavenly Venerable's pursuit."
"Master!?"
This sudden transmission made Li Hanqiu's heart jolt.
But Wan Liugui had already ceased responding to him; instead, he slowly raised his hand, and a terrifying devouring force began to brew at his fingertips: "A breath's time has passed, it seems you've truly chosen a path of death..."
"Master, actually, it might not be too late... What if Alkaid's talents match those of Jiang Heavenly Venerable not only in cultivation but also exceed in other areas, such as Artifact Refining and array setting!?"
Li Hanqiu, meeting Wan Liugui's gaze, also made up his mind.
