At the center of the shattered arena, Li Yun remained standing with sword in hand, yet many present now believed his fate had worsened drastically.
Before Huang Chen's arrival, Li Yun still had backing from major forces. Now the strongest spear of Boundless Martial Palace had entered the scene personally. The pressure upon Li Yun multiplied at once.
Whispers spread in every direction.
"It is over for Li Yun now."
"No matter how monstrous he is, how can he compare to Huang Chen?"
"Huang Chen can suppress Xian Li with one finger. I fear the same will be true for Li Yun."
"Even major forces give face to someone like him."
Li Yun looked upward at the man in black robes suspended in the sky.
His eyes remained calm as he studied Huang Chen's posture, the stillness around him, and the terrifying control hidden beneath that quiet exterior.
Then he smiled faintly.
That smile caused Yan Luo's eyes to narrow once more.
