�This is crazy!�

�Is he suggesting that we all die together?�

They were three hundred feet underground.

Though this labyrinth-like underground cave was pierced with tunnels in all directions, there was only one vertical opening where air could escape.

To pour oil on such terrain and set it on fire.

It was nothing short of a suicide pact.

In fact, Gu Ja-hwang lit the fire with such determination.

It was clear that if time passed like this, only his men would die. So, he thought he might as well set the fire with the intention of dying together.

There was one more effect of setting this fire.

That was to completely block Pyo-wol�s hiding place.

No matter how skilled he was at hiding, he couldn�t stay hidden in such intense heat and flames forever.

As long as he was human, he would definitely jump out, unable to withstand the heat.

Gu Ja-hwang was also feeling hot. But he trusted his internal energy and physique.

He created a barrier to block the heat and smoke.

Unless his internal energy was infinite, he couldn�t hold out like this forever. But the same was true for his opponent.

While he couldn�t find Pyo-wol hiding in the dark with his abilities, he was confident that he wouldn�t lose in a battle of patience and internal energy.�

Through the searing flames, he squinted and looked ahead.

It was then.

Whoosh!

A black shadow descended into the middle of the blazing inferno.

It was the spot where the tents had been. There were many things to burn, so the heat was more intense.

Pyo-wol stood in the middle of the hellfire, looking at Gu Ja-hwang as if he didn�t feel the heat at all.

Even in the midst of the raging flames, there wasn�t even a hint of flush on his pure white face.

His still-pale face was like that of a real Grim Reaper.

He didn�t come out to avoid the flames.

If he wanted to avoid the heat, he would have escaped into the tunnel where the fire hadn�t spread yet.

Pyo-wol only revealed himself because Gu Ja-hwang blocked his own retreat and came to challenge him head-on.

Gu Ja-hwang must have thought he had a chance of winning, hence he made the challenge, but Pyo-wol planned to show him what a big mistake that was.

Pyo-wol moved towards Gu Ja-hwang. Then, the flames split to his left and right. It was as if the flames had a will of their own and were avoiding him.

Of course, it was impossible for the fire to have a will. JrNovels.com
