The Snake Bone Whip suddenly lashed out, winding around Lan Xiaodie's Long Sword.
Ah Duo's withered face flushed with an eerie redness: "Go look at the bottom of the coffin, then you'll know how your father died!"
Lan Xiaodie channeled strength to shake the sword, but felt a surge of sinister, poisonous Inner Strength travel along the blade, her tiger's mouth instantly going numb.
In a flash of inspiration, she tapped the ground with her toes and leapt into the air, executing "Butterfly Shadow Step" to circle behind Ah Duo.
"Take this!" Lan Xiaodie thrust the sword tip toward Ah Duo's back heart.
But Ah Duo suddenly turned, opening a mouth riddled with toxic sores and spat out a mouthful of foul, black blood!
Lan Xiaodie swung her sword to block, the black blood splattering on the blade and actually hissing corrosively.
Ah Duo seized the moment to lash out the Snake Bone Whip, the barbed tip hooking her skirt hem and yanking hard!
