Hu Long was in a panic and hurriedly exerted all his strength to resist.
"Zhu Haotian, help me!" he shouted, fearing that his strength alone was inadequate to hold his ground.
Zhu Haotian naturally understood the principle of "if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold"—although Hu Long's combat power was far from adequate to be an asset, he was nonetheless a companion for now, and certainly could not be left to perish.
Thus, he immediately strived with all his might, launching a beam of light toward Shi Hao.
Shi Hao smiled, activated Instantaneous Movement, and appeared behind Hu Long.
Hu Long, deeply fearful, yet being a descendant of an Immortal King, did not react slowly. Though startled, he did not panic, and immediately swung a sword in counterattack.
Clang!
The clash of sword and blade produced a deafening sound that could burst eardrums. Hu Long, though sent flying, was not severed in two.
