The ghost face mask lunged and easily enveloped his head, but in just an instant, the mask flew away again, taking with it a head that had been cleanly severed.
The Extra Staff member flinched in shock, then looked at Xu Huo, who hadn't even turned his head, silently swallowing back his words.

He stepped back, drove the Black Blade into it, and unexpectedly, the blade passed through easily. He pressed down, and a thin slit appeared in the barrier wall. Though it healed quickly, the space on both sides was no longer completely separated.
