HISS—
The massive tail of the giant black snake swept out, deflecting Wan Xuegui's sword strike and preventing it from finding its mark.
The entire aura of that sword strike scattered onto Fang Qingxue.
Fang Qingxue paid it no mind, smirking as she said, "Of course I knew you knew. But I went along with it anyway. Do you know why? You thought you could make me attract the Black Water Profound Snake's hatred and attention so you could seize the Creation Ice Blood Lotus. At the same time, you'd wait for me and the snake to cripple each other, allowing you to defeat it and capture me. You planned to perform Refinement on the trace of Dragon Blood in the Black Water Profound Snake, refine the Creation Ice Blood Lotus, and capture me for dual cultivation to achieve Yin Yang Balance, completing your final transformation and breaking into the Sword Void Realm in one fell swoop.
Your calculations were perfect. A pity..."
