Chapter 516: Twilight (7)
The futile strokes of a brush scattered, sending droplets of blood flying.
In the briefest moment, a shimmering haze of red erupted from the body of the Seventh Apostle, and the drops of blood were forcefully swept down to the ground, not a single drop touching her skin.
"Disgusting."
She muttered under her breath.
Meanwhile, Im Jin-myeong, watching her with a peculiar gaze as the Blood Demon, who so disdainfully rejected others' blood like vermin, politely passed a message to Cheocheong.
-- It's over now. Thank you.
There was no reply from her.
Only the brief shake of Im Jin-myeong's view, once connected to the white swallow, was felt. Cheocheong gently stroked the head of Baek Yeon before she suddenly dissolved into the air.
A tremendously swift movement of her personal energy.
Perhaps because she had poured her full strength into a single strike, her body slightly wavered, and the direction of her movement became somewhat predictable.
To the east of Ipwang Fortress. In the direction where Mong In-wol had infiltrated, it was also the place where the Golden Phoenix had been snoring in a deep sleep, its snout dripping.
Cheocheong was now preparing to return, packing the spoils as if nothing had happened. The pace was too quick for the usual defenses of the Central Guard Division to intercept.
