Cui Chongxiao used a divine talisman to retreat several miles back; this was a precious treasure given by his teacher, capable of immediately escaping critical situations.
"Li Qingyue from Fangwai Heaven Pure Land, what is your intention?" asked the great grandmaster of the Esoteric Buddhism, who was Cui Chongxiao's senior disciple brother.
His eyes emitted two silver beams, staring at the Eight Trigrams Furnace liquefied into armor on the girl in white.
"Battle, exchange," Li Qingyue responded.
Cui Chongxiao frowned, looking unhappy. He was burned, not severely, but being forced to retreat by a girl younger than him was humiliating.
In the distance, a woman clad in a Nine-Colored Battle Robe appeared, slowly rising, standing high amidst the night fog, and gazing down at the scene.
"Jiang Ran from Immortal Soil?" The great grandmaster's expression returned to calm. He realized they weren't alone here, possibly watched by others.
