“Ugh!”

Namgung Tae Wi’s groan became louder.

His body jerked back.

As the Sword Saint’s body was about to stagger as well since Namgung Tae Wi was holding his hands…

“Oh my, senior. You need to snap out of it.”

It was a tired yet oddly rushed voice.

“!”

The Sword Saint snapped back to his senses after feeling that pull.

He saw the pained Namgung Tae Wi as well as one other man.

“You are finally back to your senses?”

Sui Khan. He walked past the Sword Saint and approached Namgung Tae Wi.

Was this really something that could be created in this world?

It felt as if he was in a place out of this world, a place where immortals were said to reside.

“…I was foolish.”

The Sword Saint started moving.

He did not release any internal ki.

However, he helped the Fist King and Sui Khan.

“Sword Saint. It’s effective.”

The Sword Saint bit down on his lips at the Fist King’s comment.

“Ahhhhhhhhhh—!”

Namgung Tae Wi’s voice was slowly getting louder.
