Chapter 67
Even in the warm sunlight, the extreme Yin Qi made my back damp.
Despite being a tiny seed, it germinates from time to time, causing some of the energy to spiral out of control.
Yin Qi like Bamtol, combined with poisonous energy, was so stubborn and tenacious that no amount of energy could push it away. Nangong Yue gazed at it, feeling the absurdity of it all, and yet she did not push it away, even though it had become so familiar.

“Farewell, and please don’t get sick.”
He smiled at me, his smile as generous as the sunlight.

Han Il-sang jumped to his feet, his face pale with the news. He was just about to complete his master plan when he was interrupted.
