Chapter 36 Turmoil in Beijing
A fierce wind raged, churning the air as if a typhoon were brewing. Yet, this was no natural phenomenon. It was the powerful gust left in the wake of a group of people sprinting at an unbelievable speed.
They ran, pushing off the ground, sometimes leaping by merely touching the tip of a blade of grass.
At the head of this group was Namgung-woo.
Even amidst a display of various Light Body Techniques, each boasting its own special ability, his speed and stability were undeniably superior. His Thousand Li Home-Court Footwork, which allowed him to traverse a thousand li as if it were his own backyard, was truly a Crane Among Chickens.
“Benefactor! You’re too fast! The others can’t keep up!”
Peng Ha-ryeong, having pushed off the ground with all her might, drew close to Namgung-woo and shouted.
Her Divine Wind Qi Movement Light Body Technique was comparable to the Thousand Li Home-Court Footwork. Unlike the Thousand Li Home-Court Footwork, which generated Internal Force Waves with each step to block incoming attacks, the Divine Wind Qi Movement focused solely on speed and breakthrough power. Thanks to this, Peng Ha-ryeong, despite her lower Martial Prowess, was able to keep pace with Namgung-woo.
Even that, however, was only possible because Namgung-woo was considerate of them.
“The horses?”
His voice was low, but carried by his Aura, it reached Peng Ha-ryeong’s ears with perfect clarity. It was a testament to his further developed Internal Energy Control.
