Thankfully, the flow of time had already ground to a halt at the Sword Qi Great Wall, or else the tall woman's words would have shaken the sword hearts of a great many sword immortals.
Of course, the nearby Zuo You and the slightly further Hidden Official and Dong Sangeng could remain unrestrained, but they were still unable to detect what was going on around Chen Qingdu. If anyone dared to wantonly challenge the barrier erected by Chen Qingdu, that would essentially be an act of challenging the old great sword immortal to a sword duel. Chen Qingdu never went easy on other people, and the number of sword immortals who had died at his hands was more than just the solitary Dong Guanpu from ten years ago.

Chen Qingdu nodded and replied, "Focusing on just myself, I do indeed have many regrets.
