Chapter 358: Who’s Afraid?
Baek Eung-ji was a place I could reach fairly quickly using light footwork, though it would take quite a while on foot.
That’s how fast my light footwork had become. If I ran like a madman with my mind set, I could easily outrun carriages and even the finest steeds.
It wasn’t exactly normal.
I was probably now within the top ten in Jianghu when it came to light footwork ranking. Surprisingly, it was all thanks to Dark Fragrance Drifting.
I’d tested my body’s limits using Dark Fragrance Drifting.
Could I sustain it repeatedly? How quickly did it drain my internal energy? How much burden did it place on my body afterward?
I returned while studying the combination of newly devised martial techniques and my physical form.
Whenever I overexerted myself and my internal energy couldn’t recover properly, I would intentionally climb a quiet mountain, perform breathing exercises, and only then come back down.
Because I’m naturally suspicious.
Strangely, I couldn’t sleep at all when I tried to rest at an inn.
After my senses sharpened, I even started assigning meaning to the footsteps from the floor above.
I’d drift into a shallow sleep only to wake at the sound of footsteps in the hallway, or even imagine the patter of footsteps blending into ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ the rain on the roof.
