Chapter: 1177
King Gujin was confident he had finished Soma off so he had eased his guard. At that time, Pyo-wol had secretly approached King Gujin and took advantage of the gap in his defenses. After that, he issued the Soul-Reaping Thread to distract him, and then performed the Turtle-Breathing Technique.
The moment Pyo-wol saw King Gujin for the first time, the former felt a strong sense of danger.
It was the first time since meeting the Wind Saint that he had felt such a strong sense of crisis.
King Gujin was not someone he could deal with while taking Soma away.
Soma could have died, but Pyo-wol decided to trust him.
The Soma he knew was not a child who would lose his life in vain. Pyo-wol believed that Soma would be able to get out on his own one way or another.�
When Pyo-wol used the Soul-Reaping Thread to attract King Gujin�s attention, Soma moved then immediately went into hiding.
Before confronting King Gujin, Pyo-wol was not just hiding comfortably.�
Pyo-wol observed Soma and King Gujin�s fight closely, and as a result, he noticed that there was a strange quirk in King Gujin�s movements.
His gait, resembling that of a wolf, was not straight. It was slanted slightly to the left. Pyo-wol didn�t know if it was just his way of walking or if it�s because his body was slightly out of balance.
But nonetheless, Pyo-wol used this information to predict the path he would move in advance and moved there. Then, he executed the Turtle-Breathing Technique and went into hiding.
From then on, it was a battle of patience.�
King Gujin ran out of patience first, and in the end exposed a loophole to Pyo-wol.
As a result, Pyo-wol was able to insert a phantom dagger into his waist.
It wasn�t a fatal wound. It didn�t even cut off King Gujin�s limb.�
All Pyo-wol did was to stab his back with a dagger.
But Pyo-wol was still satisfied.
In the first place, what he was aiming for was not a fatal wound.
It was virtually impossible to attack and inflict fatal wounds on a master at King Gujin�s level from the start. If he had been such a weak being then he wouldn�t have earned his nickname of Wolf King.�
The phantom dagger stuck in King Gujin�s waist was similar to a thorn stuck under his fingernail.
It�s not a fatal wound, but it continues to cause him pain. Above all, it was stuck in a position that was not easy to pull out.
King Gujin glared at Pyo-wol with fierce eyes.
He didn�t even think about pulling out the phantom dagger. He knows that a huge amount of bleeding will occur the moment he draws the phantom dagger.
King Gujin looked at Pyo-wol with calm eyes.
It was the first time for someone to hurt him in recent years.
It was the first time for someone to dare attempt an ambush against him since he was nicknamed the Wolf King.�
�Are you an assassin from the Hundred Wraith Union?�
Pyo-wol did not reply.
He didn�t even hide.
He stood at a distance, barely out of reach of King Gujin. JrNovels.com
