Chapter 194 Yemla (1)
Frankly speaking, it wasn’t a situation he could take lightly.
Not only had he been completely absorbed by Namgung Cheon until just moments ago, but now enemies had closed in right before his eyes.

If I could, I wanted to chase him down and kill him. My fists itched to punch Namgung Cheon’s face.
