In a state of panic, Jared narrowly dodged the sword energy which grazed past his cheek, leaving him with a slight sting of pain.
Just as Jared breathed a sigh of relief, having narrowly escaped the attack, he was immediately engulfed by an overwhelming rush of sword energy.
The sword energy surged forth like a tidal wave, carrying with it an earth-shattering aura, ready to tear Jared to shreds.
“It’s still coming?”
Jared’s brows furrowed, and with a swift motion, he swung Dragonslayer Sword, unleashing a golden beam of light.
Clang! Clang!
With just this one sword strike, the opponent’s flurry of sword energy was instantly neutralized.
It wasn’t until this moment that Jared finally saw the attacker clearly. Right before his very eyes, was a masked figure, brandishing a longsword and launching an attack at him.
The figure was masked, making it impossible to distinguish their gender. However, Jared quickly noticed the absence of clothing on the figure’s body, revealing that it was a woman.
Jared turned to the woman and asked, “Miss, I’m not sure why you suddenly attacked me. I don’t believe I’ve done anything to provoke you, have I?”
“How do you know that I’m a woman?”
The woman deliberately lowered her voice, asking in a rather husky tone.
“To be honest, it wasn’t my choice. It’s just unfortunate that your figure is too stunning. A single glance and I can’t forget it…” Jared said helplessly.
However, as Jared spoke, his eyes were anything but idle. He wasn’t doing it intentionally, but since the other party seemed to prefer not wearing clothes, it would be a waste not to look.
“Ah…”
It was then that the woman realized she hadn’t put on her clothes yet. With a gasp of surprise, she swiftly jumped behind a massive boulder for cover.
A moment later, the woman, having dressed, stepped out.
The longsword in her hand was pointed at Jared, her body seething with rising anger.
“You pervert. How dare you sneak in here and spy on me? I swear I’ll kill you!”
After the woman finished speaking, she once again lunged at Jared with her sword.
The woman’s sword energy grew increasingly fierce. Countless sword lights filled the sky in what looked like a relentless attack.
Jared was taken aback, quickly clarifying, “Miss, I think there’s been a misunderstanding. I didn’t come here to spy on you.”
“You were the one who wasn’t wearing any clothes, and I just happened to see it by accident. You can’t blame me for that…”
Jared was explaining loudly, but the woman simply wouldn’t listen.
Jared was at a loss for words. He hadn’t been spying and had merely stumbled upon the woman unintentionally. He had no idea that a woman resided there, let alone one without any clothes on.
He felt unfortunate that he was being accused of something he didn’t do.
Despite Jared’s attempts to explain, the woman’s attacks only grew faster and more ruthless. It was clear that she wanted to take his life.
Moreover, the woman possessed a cultivation level of Ultimate Realm Level One. Thus, her strength was not to be underestimated. Jared constantly dodged, not daring to fight back, fearing he might hurt her and complicate the situation even further.
“I stumbled upon you by accident. If you continue to be so unreasonable, I’ll have no choice but to fight back, alright?”
Jared issued a warning to the woman.
“Hmph, you’re just a Seventh Level Tribulator, yet you dare to make such bold statements? Don’t think you can run from me just because you’ve dodged my attacks a few times!”
The woman scoffed, her longsword instantly unleashing an array of sword flowers, each of them blooming as they enveloped Jared in their midst.
Jared’s brow furrowed as he realized that the woman’s swordsmanship was indeed impressive. His aura then burst forth as he said, “Since you keep pushing me, don’t blame me for what happens next… You’ve brought this upon yourself…”
With Dragonslayer Sword in hand, Jared made a swift leap, intending to dodge the flurry of sword flowers before launching his counterattack.
Just as he had leaped forward, the woman cried out, “Sword intent tracking…”
Suddenly, the flurry of sword flowers converged together, swiftly transforming into a ferocious beast. With its gaping jaws wide open, it lunged toward Jared with a ferocious bite.
