Held within the ghostly howls and demonic cries, was the sound of the blade’s edge cutting apart the air. Bai Li Shu hung down his eyes, and the long eyelashes covered up his emotions, and also covered up the shower of blades that filled the sky.

(料敌先机, 算无遗漏)

(妖瞳之刃, 寒鸦如刀)
When the black-robed youth said this, the surroundings immediately turned into sounds of whispers.

(指点一二, 天下美色)

(并未退缩, 阴阳折扇)
“Senior Bai Li, what kind of task did Elder Qin delegate to you?”

(金唐京陵, 俗世蓬莱)
When they turned around, at a time unknown and a place not far from them, an elder appeared out of nowhere. A deep-black robe draped over that elder, with no decorative patterns whatsoever on the robe.
