Lightning Is the Only Way

"Are you going to attack?" a red-haired girl asked the red-haired guy beside her.

They both wore red armor, which increased their defense by quite a bit. The girl wore a saber while the guy wore a long, single-edged sword. The guy's sword didn't have the typical thick back to give the sword more weight. The sword was made for finesse rather than power.

"Maybe, but I'm not sure," the guy said. "The Unrestrained Sect is still very powerful, even if several Sects are attacking them. My Battle-Strength is not as powerful as yours, sis."

"Hmph, pussy," the girl said with a sneer. "Your fear is precisely the reason why you're still weaker than me, even though you're older than me."

"I'm only a single year older than you, sis," the guy said with an awkward smile. "That barely counts at our age. Also, you only need to defend against the weaker disciples while I have to attack the stronger ones. How about I defend the resource point, and you go attack one?"

"Pfft," the girl spat. "Now you're searching for an external reason to rationalize your cowardice. You know exactly that it's impossible to switch spots like this."

"I'm only using a hypotheti-"

The guy stopped speaking as both of them turned their heads to the east.

"Who's that?" the guy asked.

"No idea, but he's too weak," the girl answered. "He is only a Late Minor Circulation Immortal. Maybe he is searching for a resource point to attack?"

Some seconds of silence passed.

Then, both of them broke into laughter.

"Could you imagine that?" the guy said between laughs. "The guy doesn't even have a weapon on him, which means that he isn't a Weapon Cultivator. Could you imagine some Elemental Cultivator attacking a resource point? Weapon Cultivators would lose all face if he somehow manages to achieve that."

However, the girl stopped laughing as she remembered something. After that, her brows furrowed as she watched the approaching Cultivator.

The guy looked at his sister with confusion. Normally, she enjoyed laughing at overconfident, arrogant people. "What's up?" he asked.

"Do you remember that new Ascender of the Unrestrained Sect?" she asked.

The guy nodded. "Yeah. You think that's him?" he asked.

The girl narrowed her eyes. "Maybe," she said. "I don't know why, but he somehow feels a bit dangerous to me. Try to ignore your preconceived notion and carefully feel his power."

The guy was a bit confused but did as his sister told him.

Lightning, suppression, danger, control.

That was what he felt when he analyzed the Cultivator.

The guy took a deep breath. "That's definitely him," he said. "Somehow, I feel like a fight between him and I would go 50/50."
