Chapter 792 A King with Seventy-Two Wives (2/2)
Han Sen knew there would be no point in running. If he ever met someone in real life who could make his body shiver like this, he knew he wouldn't be granted the opportunity of flight.
Han Sen was simply glad he had only encountered this person here in the virtual Skynet, and he wasn't a real enemy of his.
”Why have you convinced Qin Xuan to learn that skill?” Qin Taixuan coldly asked.
”Because I think it suits her,” Han Sen said, not looking to hide anything. Although he did not compel Qin Xuan to learn it, he hoped that she would learn it due to how well it suited her.
”Then let me see if you have what it takes to even think about it.” Qin Taixuan stepped forward and his hands became blades. Without pause, he slashed towards Han Sen.
In this virtual world, when Han Sen saw the strike come, he felt as if the world had gotten smaller. It was like the entire space was taken by this attack, and he could neither move nor dodge. He felt as if he would just have to stand and wait there, anticipating the moment he would be broken by his opponent.
Han Sen knew that it wasn't the power gap between the two that prohibited him from fighting back, it was just the feelings he was suffering from, as a result of going against someone of a much higher tier. It stifled him.
Han Sen's heart was tough, and he had frequently found himself triumphing over life or death moments. Thinking this over, he became determined not to lose over the strength he perceived someone else to have.
He cast the Dongxuan Sutra, which resulted in his body shaking. But still, his eyes shone bright with determination, devoid of any glimmer of a desire to back out. All he did was stare at the hand that approached him.
He did not move back nor forward. Instead, he moved horizontally.
Pang!
When the attack landed, he felt as if his chest was about to be torn open. One of his arms and half a shoulder were sliced off. The system simulated the appearance of gushing blood, as his HP bar was brought down to a sliver.
But the opponent's attack did not defeat him right away, and he still had a single-digit amount of HP left.
Qin Taixuan's eyes looked strange. He could tell that his opponent was not some leader in an army and was instead just a young man.
But for a young man to have such a reaction towards his attack was special, and even here in a virtual community, it surprised Qin Taixuan a great amount.
If Han Sen backed off, then that would mean his mind was lost. If he went forward, then that would imply he was reckless under pressure.
No matter which way Han Sen went, he'd have been defeated.
But under such pressure, Han Sen could still use his best judgment and heed his own advice. To this, Qin Taixuan was surprised and in great admiration of him.
Qin Taixuan thought it was incredible to see a young man such as this.
”If you have convinced Little Xuanxuan to learn this skill, you must be responsible.” Qin Taixuan merely looked at Han Sen now, foregoing a desire to attack.
Han Sen was preparing to fight back, but put away his attempt upon hearing him speak. His heart could properly take-in what was spoken, so he asked, ”Responsible? Responsible for what?”
”If a powerful sword lacks a proper scabbard, then it will inevitably harm the wielder. If you have suggested that she learn Empirical Sword, then you must be her scabbard,” Qin Taixuan said with calm gravitas.
