Li Sushang leaned down, bent her left knee just merely inches from the ground, and lightly touched the ground using four to five fingers. If someone noticed her appearance at that moment, they would’ve found it hilarious right? But, with the speed of Li Sushang body, the vision of a normal human simply can’t capture the strange starting formation.

This move wasn’t from Edge of Taixuan, but rather a secret technique passed down by the Li Family:

[Fleeting Swallow].

In an azure flash, Li Sushang dashed and hit “Eagle.” She was the first to strike, the attack being a palm blade.

She hit “Eagle”'s wrist with her right palm, shooting down [Xuanyuan],

Then she slapped the man’s heart with a lightning quick backhand, shaking them away.

At the same time, her left hand accurately caught the falling sword.

A familiar sense of peace flowed through her heart.

As she touched her sword, she felt really great.

Li Sushang shook the sword, then gave “Eagle” a smile: [Thanks.] Her tone was sincere and cute, but it was a huge humiliation to “Eagle.”

For many years in the Northern Desert, he never suffered a defeat like this.

“Eagle” felt a sudden urge to kill, along with the surging desire of vengeance.

Not only did he want to kill Li Sushang, he wanted to give her a miserable death.

Maintaining the posture for facing an enemy,

The leader of the Golden Sand Gang cautioned himself,

He genuinely branded the girl in front of him as a [strong enemy].

This was war.

Not a match, not a duel, but a war.

Though the scale was small, the goal was simple, but it was war.

Therefore,

This place was a battlefield where “Eagle” was the best in,

Now it was war time that “Eagle” was most used to.

Within a few seconds, his mind ran wild, and he already calculated the disadvantages, advantages, and variables.

There’s one disadvantage, it was the [Strength Difference].

“Eagle” understood it very clearly, also wasn’t ashamed to admit it:

The little girl in front of his eyes, was far above him in terms of both external and internal strength.

Even stronger than any person from the Jianghu Society he knew.

The sheer power gap is like heaven and earth, the end of a match would be laid out from the start

—If only, it was just a match.

There were two variables, some [Unknowns].

Those two palm blades didn’t use internal force, is the [Binding Dust] still in effect?

Two people escaped from the dungeon, is the [Raksha] still here?

These two unknowns could affect the outcome of this fight,

if the worst possibility is considered, “Eagle” would have no chance of winning even if it’s a gamble

—If only, he really ends up in the worst case scenario.

…The situation was so horrible, the chances of winning were nearly zero.

But “Eagle” had absolute confidence in victory.

Because, he has yet to count his [advantages].

There are three advantages. [Hahahahahaha—] The man let out a cheerful laugh, [Amazing! Little girl, good work!]

[It should be said that I’ve underestimated you; when I’m old, I should serve the old…

Snatching stuff from my hands, hehe, not even 100,000 Rakshas could do it.]

[Oh… thanks, but this was mine originally.

I didn’t rob you of anything, it’s called returning to the original owner.]

[Hehehe…] The man couldn’t help but laugh. [Since it returned to its original owner, why aren’t you leaving?] [I haven’t beaten you yet, so I can’t go.] [......] [So… you’re here to kill me.] [No no, I haven’t figured that out yet… you could be killed or not. But you still owe me two slaps, so I have to get those fair and square.] [Heh.] "Eagle" sneered.

Advantage Number One: [Experience].

Compared to his long time in the Jianghu Society, Li Sushang social experience was near nothing.

She didn’t find the hints buried in “Eagle”’s words at all,

only walking into the trap step by step unknowingly.

Advantage Number Two: it’s [Character].

Eagle had tasted defeat before. In order to win, he would do anything.

Li Sushang is really an honest and stupid idiot,

things such as justice and fairness still occupy a high place in her heart.

If he utilizes the full use of these two advantages,

And relies on the third advantage.

Making another bet on the variables.

“Eagle” believes he can tip the balance of victory to lean towards him.

[Fair and square… Good, I want that as well.

How about this, little girl, let’s gamble.]

[Gambling isn’t good… but do speak, I’m listening.] [Haha, yes.]

[Let’s do as you wish, and we’ll compete in an honest and fair manner. Just fists, no using weapons.

If I lose, you can have my head. If you lose, the sword stays.]

[That won’t work.] The girl shook her head,

[I promised my mother to never let this sword leave my side.

How about this, if I lose, you can also have my head. Is that fair?]

[......] “Eagle” was stunned, then he laughed: [It’s fair! Hahahahaha, very fair, really fucking fair!] [Uh… it’s a deal?] [It’s a deal.] [Mm.] With a toss from Li Sushang’s hand, the Xuanyuan Sword plunged straight through the ground, leaving only the hilt standing abruptly on the ancient green rocks. [Why don’t you let me go first? I’m younger than you.] While talking, Sushang activated her Blade Mantra, her heart was Still Water.
