Chapter 3 - 1 Desperate Struggle_1
The heat is most unbearable in June and July.
The vicious sun and scorching weather seemed to turn the entire earth into a massive furnace.
「Iron Bull Town.」
It was noon, the Furious Sun blazing high overhead.
"PANT!!"
On a long flight of stone stairs, Qin Feiyang ascended step by step, his body drenched in sweat, gasping for breath.
The stairs inclined upwards at a forty-five-degree angle, nine hundred and ninety-nine steps in total, leading to an immense palace.
Under the scorching sun, each step had become searing hot.
Sweat dripped and evaporated instantly with a SIZZLE.
Qin Feiyang was only a fifteen-year-old youth, yet he possessed a maturity and composure uncommon for his age. He stood one meter seventy-five tall, his frame slightly thin, and his features handsome. However, his face was pale and bloodless, giving the impression of a frail young man afflicted by illness.
No, not an impression.
