Chapter 85: Life-and-Death Struggle 1
The oldest act in human history was likely not killing others, but loving them.
If one were to name the next oldest act, it would likely be murder.
Killing and being killed.
It happened a thousand years ago, ten thousand years ago.
The Northern Heaven Alliance and the Nine Heavens Alliance were already engaged in preliminary skirmishes. Barely half a day’s journey from there, Baek Moo-jin and Jin So-hye stood on the brink of a fierce battle—and on the brink of something even older in human history.
Of course, Baek Moo-jin and Jin So-hye weren’t the first lovers to share their passion by a waterfall or in a valley.
But for these two, it was their first time.
It was a thrilling and exciting affair.
As Jin So-hye looked around nervously like a frightened cat, Baek Moo-jin spoke as if to tease her.
“There’s no one around, Your Highness.”
If Baek Moo-jin said no one was there, then no one was there.
Baek Moo-jin watched Jin So-hye, who was fidgeting restlessly. The moonlight made her look even more beautiful. Still, Baek Moo-jin felt he understood Jin So-hye’s feelings and added one more thing.
“Just wait a little longer. I’ll keep watch next time.”
Stand watch for me…
Wasn’t that an expression used when children were up to no good?
Baek Moo-jin meant he would wash first, so Jin So-hye could wash afterward.
Jin Sohye watched Baek Moo-jin submerged in the water. It was embarrassing, but it was also a romantic thing to do with a lover.
