I have a feeling we now know why Gao Ying was missing. Smart lad, that Shun.
I wonder if our victory here might actually amuse the Gods, after all if a Tang prince can do such gambits and stand even against the will of Heaven... dis gonna be gud.
If not, I say fuck them, start massive zoroastrian missionary work. Ahura Mazdra FTW, fuck those whimsy douches!
From some of the data the bros have unearthed,
Bandwagon is the best option here.
I'm not getting into a bone-melting claw close fight against a immortal. She prolly doesn't give a shit about us hitting her with a mean claw swipe, but if she hits us enough we die. Swords give us a distance advantage.
She's not going to go after Shun while we slash at her with two legendary swords and a wodao. One of them we can even swing with the silk so extra distance advantage.
Gah, we should't have let Cao'er go to the Sword Saint.
We have to defeat or delay her until someone else shows up to back us up. Gao Ying, Bai Jiutian, anybody. I would accept even Nie Wuxing right now.
