Fu Yuqing saw Xu Cuo suddenly make a move, and was instantly both shocked and furious, shouting, "Stop!"
The people coming out behind him, including Senior Sister Wei, also let out an exclamation, followed by looks of anger all over their faces.
However, Xu Cuo did not cease his attack, folding his arms and laughing playfully, "If you defeat me, of course I'll let them go, but if you can't best me, then you'll be my defeated opponent, and why would I need them?"
Fu Yuqing stared at him intently, saying heavily, "Very well! A duel between you and me, let's not involve others — life and death, each to their own fate."
Xu Cuo chuckled lowly and, without responding, shook his body. A white light soared from behind him, aiming directly to strike down on Fu Yuqing's head.
