Chapter: 2015
He inwardly ridiculed Pyo-wol, judging his reputation as overblown and overrated. As a result, he decided not to continue tracking Pyo-wol and instead return to report to Yeom Hee-soo.
But at that moment, Pyo-wol disappeared into thin air.
�Did he just quickly return to the inn?�
It was then.
Suddenly, a chill ran down his spine.
At the same time, he felt an intense sense of crisis.
�Ah!�
Wol Gwi exhaled sharply and looked around. However, all he could see was the reed field rippling like waves under the moonlight.
�No way! Have I been spotted?�
The worst-case scenario flashed through his mind.
He chewed his lip hard.
There was only one person who could make him feel this close to death. Only he could put pressure on him while concealing his presence so skillfully.�
It was then that Wol Gwi realized that Pyo-wol hadn�t spared him because he couldn�t detect his presence.�
It was evident that Pyo-wol had been aware of his pursuit all along. Yet, he had let him go, judging that he didn�t pose a significant threat.
Although it wounded his pride, Wol Gwi understood that his opponent was someone who possessed the ability and qualifications to warrant such treatment.
Whoosh!
At that moment, a strong gust of wind blew.
Reed leaves scattered in the wind, disturbing his vision.
�Ugh!�
Wol Gwi�s face contorted.
He felt a sharp pain in his shoulder.
A single reed leaf was lodged in his shoulder like a dagger.
Only then did Wol Gwi realize that the wind had been caused by Pyo-wol.
A look of terror appeared on Wol Gwi�s face.
He had a vision. He saw that within this vast reed field, every reed leaf seemed to have become Pyo-wol�s weapon.
