"We're in trouble."
The thought flashed through Zhu Qingya's mind, but her body reacted faster. Stepping into the Seven Star Steps, she frantically attempted to escape.
But Su Jie wouldn't let her escape so easily.
"Darling, please turn around."
He slapped the red and gold Sword Nourishing Gourd at his waist, and a white beam of light shot out.
The White Bone Sky Slaying Sword sprang forward, rapidly approaching Zhu Qingya.
"Watch my Vajra Bracelet, hit!"
Hearing the noise behind her, Zhu Qingya shook her delicate, jade-like wrist, and the golden bracelet on her left wrist flew out, expanding in midair and knocking the White Bone Sky Slaying Sword away.
With that impact, the White Bone Sky Slaying Sword actually fell to the ground, its spirit light fading as though it turned into a mundane object.
But it only took two or three seconds for the spirit light to surge out again, the sword vibrating as it prepared to launch itself once more.
