Yi’s heart.

    Qin Yi quickly retreated, evading the fatal strike. Guan Xu pressed on, swinging the Fire Cloud Rod.

    The two clashed fiercely, their weapons creating sparks and thunder.

    News of Qin Yi and Guan Xu’s fight spread quickly, drawing waves of spectators.

    Suddenly, flames ignited on the Fire Cloud Rod, striking Qin Yi’s broken sword and pushing him back.

    "Attack!"

    Guan Xu seized the moment, swinging the rod at Qin Yi.

    An ice arrow descended from the sky, stopping Guan Xu’s attack. Qin Yi steadied himself.

    "Who’s there?!" Guan Xu roared.

    He had a perfect chance to kill Qin Yi, but someone interfered, enraging him.

    "Look there!" someone pointed.

    Everyone turned to see.

    "Ice Empress, Tang Qi Xin!"

    "Qixin, why are you here?" Guan Xu's face lit up with a bright smile upon seeing the girl in the blue dress.

    But Tang Qixin ignored him, leaving Guan Xu embarrassed. Onlookers couldn't help but chuckle.

    Seeing this, Guan Xu roared, "Quiet!" The surroundings immediately fell silent.

    "Qin Yi, you’ve finally returned!" Tang Qixin turned to Qin Yi.

    A red beam shot toward Qin Yi, and Guan Xu’s Fire Cloud Rod struck out.

    Phantom rod shadows emerged in front of Guan Xu, advancing aggressively toward Qin Yi.

    Qin Yi's expression turned serious. He swung his broken sword, and once again, they clashed fiercely.

    A deep blue spiritual energy emanated from Tang Qixin’s hand. Blue light flickered on her dress, transforming the energy into an ice arrow.
