Protector Cheng Yun's expression changed. This flying knife came with less brute force than the Blood Serpent Spear, but it was harder for him to evade or guard against it. It was all due to the flying knife traveling inside the Mirage before suddenly appearing right in front of his eyebrows! Even when Xue Ying was attacking with his Blood Serpent Spear, his attacks were not so explosive, and Protector Cheng Yun could somehow defend against them. When the spear came, Protector Cheng Yun had protected himself with numerous hair strands. He was also focused on defending, diminishing the offensive power significantly before it could even reach him. In the end, the Blood Serpent Spear only left some bleeding cuts on him.
However, Xue Ying's attack with the flying knife was entirely on another level. With a deeper understanding of the 'Dao of Slaughter', there was no way for Protector Cheng Yun to withstand this attack.
