The speed of the Fire Lotus Sword was just too fast; Li Xiu didn't even have time to dodge before it struck his abdomen, the blade disappearing in an instant up to the hilt.
"It's over! Am I just dead like this?" Li Xiu felt unwilling but resigned himself to his fate, thinking, "This time I can finally reunite with Bai Qiuyi. Unexpectedly, the world's two best Magic Armor Masters both died because of the Trial Gate."
"Strange, why doesn't it hurt? Is it because the sword is too thin and fast, that it pierced through my body without me noticing? The wound is still tightly sealed, just waiting for me to move, then it will open up and my intestines will spill everywhere?" Li Xiu thought, suddenly sensing something amiss. He looked down and found that the Fire Lotus Sword hadn't pierced his abdomen at all.
