Just as Song Ziming's big ladle was about to smash onto the Bone Burning Taoist's head, Yang Xiao made his move. He manipulated the Mirror Ghost, appearing instantly one meter to the left of the Bone Burning Taoist, while simultaneously swinging the chef's knife down.
This distance completely blocked the Bone Burning Taoist's instant teleportation spot, making it a calculated prediction.
Moreover, this slash wouldn't kill him outright. After all, the Ghost Chef's Knife was rusty and not sharp, but as long as it wounded the opponent, it would establish a position of invincibility.
Yang Xiao didn't want the Bone Burning Taoist dead just yet. He wanted him severely injured and captured to interrogate for secrets.
But the next scene again exceeded Yang Xiao's expectations. The Bone Burning Taoist did not instantly teleport away but was instead accurately struck on the back of the head by Song Ziming's big ladle.
