"Do you think you can just run forever?!" Li Huan shrieked then laughed, feeling like a cat, chasing, playing with a mouse before finally eating it. Li Huan does not even need to move from her position, she only just needs to raise the sword with both hands to slice the air so the flame can attack Gao Lan Mei! Her goal is to seal all escape path for her opponent.
Each attack leaves flames on the arena"s floor, and everyone seems to understand that the flames will not stop burning so soon, giving another hurdle for Gao Lan Mei as she may not be able to approach Li Huan for close combat attack because of the blazing flame around.
Li Huan continued to strike continued to leave flames to now almost all of the arena.
Gao Lan Mei still continued to avoid it, more concerned for the flames do not reach her paper cranes. She does not even care if a part of her white robe is already burning, probably her skin under it as well.
"Mei"er be careful!" Gao Qi shouted in worry, as the places that Gao Lan Mei can run without the burning ground is getting smaller.
Gao Lan Mei"s breathed hard showing her exhaustion from running away, drops of sweat from her forehead is running on her face. Add to the high temperature inside the arena due.
"This will be over soon." Huang Ying commented with a smirk, "Do you think they will cut her legs or just allow Gao Lan Mei to kill herself?" he added. "Oy! Gao Shen what will you do to your niece later? Just kill allow her to die at least she will be reincarnated!" then he laughed.
Gao Shen just gritted his, his arms are cross around his chest but his fists are clenched tightly as he ignored the taunting and just focus on the fight. While the others looked at Huang Ying silently with a death glare.
"Just be thankful you are from the Immortal Domain!" one of them thought with hostility. If Huang Ying they have already done something to make the man shut up!
The place that Gao Lan Mei can run is getting limited, but she still persisted to evade every single attack from Li Huan, until she has no other choice but stops at the edge of the arena.
"Wait!" Gao Lan Mei called out before Li Huan, as she continued to catch her breath because of exhaustion. She has both her hands with the paper cranes raised on top of her head as she tries to avoid the flame from burning them.
Li Huan laughed evilly, "Nowhere else to run? Let"s get this over with!" she exclaimed mercilessly as she raised her large sword with both hands condensing her spiritual energy. The sword released a spiral of flame around it.
"Huh. I did tell you to wait. Do not blame me." Gao Lan Mei uttered as she smirked. She then untied the main knots of ropes swiftly and threw one rope of paper cranes towards the concubine, high enough for the flames do not reach them until it is three steps away from Li Huan.
Seeing the action, Li Huan laughed at Gao Lan Mei"s feeble attempt to attack as the force may not strong enough for the entire thing to even reach her.
Li Huan smirked, "Waste! Weak!" she exclaimed, as she used her sword, flame bursting stronger from it, intending to not only to burn the paper cranes but to also roast Gao Lan Mei alive.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!
To Li Huan"s surprise, as soon the flame touched a paper crane, it exploded then the rest followed simultaneously, the sound and intensity much stronger than the previous one.
Because of these the flame from her own sword suddenly burst with no specific direction, making it uncontrollable even for Li Huan to control.
