Chapter 140: Weeds and Lilies
The blade of the katana and the gleam of the Electronic Longsword slashed through the raindrops, clashing violently with an explosive, ringing crack.
The impact jolted Elizabeth's arm so hard she could barely maintain her grip on Sword Treasure. Lorna Ludd's next strike was already sweeping in at a vicious, tricky angle—if the blade connected, both her legs would be severed.
But Sword Treasure guided her arm into a counterattack. Clang, clang, clang! Stroke after stroke parried the katana's edge.
That katana was not a Wondrous Item. Despite its fine craftsmanship, a few heavy impacts left its blade cracked and chipped.
The sword-aura data that Sword Treasure unleashed simultaneously interfered with Lorna Ludd, dragging down her speed. Several times, had Lorna failed to dodge in time, a single strike would have sliced off her left hand.
A single exchange, one clash of blades, was fraught with lethal peril, sending the onlookers on the street into a frenzy of cheering and pumping fists.
The Seth Security personnel stood with wooden expressions, unable to defy their orders. Ayako and Xiaomei could only watch.
"Not bad. You've got some skills." Lorna leaped back slightly and switched the sword to her right hand. "Time to get serious."
Over on the sidelines, Gu He watched nervously, his grip tightening around his scabbard. Why hadn't Xingtong brought Miss Caiyin out yet?
