Chapter 30
“Aaaaaaah!”
“You crazy old—!”
A vicious gale shrieked past his ears.
‘Damn it!’
In truth, a cliff of this height was nothing Yang-hwi couldn’t handle. Even if his current martial arts were merely at the Third-rate level, he retained the instincts and mastery of his past life; surviving the fall itself would hardly have been an ordeal.
The real problem was something else entirely.
“Aaaah! Aaaaaah!”
With every shriek that tore from Jegal Seol-ha’s throat, ripples of Peach Blossom Energy surged violently outward.
“Seol-ha, be quiet!”
“Aaaaaaah!”
Expecting a frail girl who had spent her entire life locked away in isolation to hold her tongue while plummeting off a cliff was apparently asking far too much.
He switched to his backup plan without hesitation.
The moment he struck her unconsciousness acupoints, Jegal Seol-ha’s eyes fluttered shut, and Yang-hwi desperately began circulating the Harmonious Heavenly Dual Origin Art.
True to its nature of embracing all creation, his Fire Heaven Energy seamlessly melded with the Peach Blossom Energy running rampant through his meridians.
‘It worked!’
Now he just needed to drive something into the rock face to arrest their descent—except he had no sword.
Left with no choice, Yang-hwi was about to thrust his bare fingers into the stone when—
Fwip!
Something plummeted past them from above, hurtling down at blinding speed.
Yang-hwi snatched it out of the air in a flash.
