Chapter: 695
�What?�
�The real difficulty is figuring out his background.�
Jin Geum-woo�s eyes widened at Pyo-wol�s unexpected answer.
�Background? Are you talking about the Xiaoleiyin Temple?�
Won Ga-young clenched her teeth.
The wound on her ankle was still throbbing. It was a wound inflicted by Pyo-wol in their recent battle. The small wound made her feel as if a needle was piercing her ankle.
The wound itself wasn�t that serious. Even if it went through her ankle, the hole itself was so small that it was unlikely to leave a scar.
The problem was not the wound on her ankle, but her wounded pride.
�I couldn�t even properly unleash the swordsmanship I�ve been learning.�
If she had lost after a fierce battle, her pride would not have been hurt so much. She would have understood why she lost, and she would feel an unbearable sense of defeat.
She didn�t get the nickname Phantom Swordsman by doing nothing.�
After appearing in Jianghu, she did quite a bit of fighting and gained fame by punishing rogues and gangsters. As she acted fiercely like that, Jianghu recognized her feats and gave her the title, the Phantom Swordsman.
All along, she had naturally accepted her nickname as the Phantom Swordsman.�
But now, the nickname she had taken for granted had never felt so heavy. It was as if the weight was crushing her shoulders.
Won Ga-young only now realized the heaviness of the special title she had.
�I�m nothing special. I can�t believe I was satisfied with my reputation back then. I�ve put a dent in my Master�s reputation.�
Her master was the swordsman Han Yucheon.
As far as swordsmanship goes, he was a super powerhouse who achieved unparalleled status. He hasn�t allowed a single defeat in his life.
Won Ga-young thought that she would similarly walk the path of invincibility. It was something she thought of as normal and inevitable, so of course, she didn�t have a single doubt about it.�
But she ended up being defeated.
It was her first time to meet such a young and skilled warrior.
She was so scared that her teeth trembled.�
It wasn�t just a matter of her opponent being strong or weak.
He was like a snake. He hid himself in the grass while observing its prey.
Just as a snake induces a fundamental fear in humans, Pyo-wol also provokes a terrible fear in the warriors.
The human being, Pyo-wol, itself, is something that gives fear. Only those who competed against Pyo-wol directly would realize how terrifying he was.
It�s been two hours since their fight, but Won Ga-young still couldn�t get over the feeling of her defeat. Maybe because it was the first defeat in her life, so the feeling of defeat had lingered for so long.�
Still, Won Ga-young was faring better. Unlike her, Neung Soun could not stand the humiliation and hasn�t come out of the Four Sea Pavilion.
�Where did such a person come from?��
Whenever she would think about Pyo-wol, her face would contort. She shook her head and gritted her teeth. JrNovels.com
