Clang!
Just as Zuo Shi was preparing to break through the water and continue her fight against Ye Xuan, his Sword Qi struck again, precisely hitting her sword and sending her tumbling back into the depths.
"How about that, are you convinced now?" Ye Xuan inquired through a transmission while sending Zuo Shi plunging to the lakebed, with a trace of mockery in his tone.
"Not convinced!"
Zuo Shi's pretty face fell dark, utterly shocked that she would suffer such a crushing defeat to Ye Xuan. Yet the look on Ye Xuan's face made her refuse to concede no matter what.
"Not convinced? Do you believe I won't bury you under the earth, you stubborn girl?" Ye Xuan's eyes flashed with fierceness, showing not the slightest hint of pity for her.
"You!"
Zuo Shi was both embarrassed and angry; she commanded her long sword, and with the power of her Sword Qi, she shot up through the water, seemingly intent on breaking free from the lake's grasp first.
