Chapter: 717

Crash!

“Kuakkk!”

“Puhk! Bang!”

“UGH!”

As they were thrown onto the floor, its impact on the wounded court maids was undetectable. The force he used to throw the maid made the stone floor crack that was beneath the point of impact. They all felt helpless against Chun Yeowun.

Wheeing!

It was then that Yeongwol, who was waiting for a gap, struck him. She let her burning red arms covered with scales out of her sleeves.

“Take this!”

Phat!

Her flame Qi emanated a force that wanted to burn down everything that surrounded her. It was the moment that she had been waiting for.

However, it didn’t go as planned.

Tap!

She thought that when she attacked him from behind, Chun Yeowun would turn and block her. But Chun Yeowun moved away.

‘Shit!’

Thanks to that, her flame Qi couldn’t reach Chun Yeowun. However, Chun Yeowun, who felt the rising energy behind him, jumped and moved in the opposite direction in the yard.

‘It can’t be!’

Step! Step! Step! Step!

Chun Yeowun’s hand held a sword imbued with black Qi as he narrowed the distance between the both of them. With the black sword blazing, Chun Yeowun struck her side. He was aiming for her hands that held the flames.

‘I need to avoid it!’

Normally, she would trust that the scales on her body could protect her. But the energy from the black Qi sword instilled fear in her.

‘I- I need to avoid it at all costs!’

Shocked, she tried to force herself to stop. Though exerting more energy than she had could cause her internal damage, she felt that internal injury was a lot better than getting her arms cut off.

Flinch!

Seeing the blood gush from her sides, she pulled her arms away.

“I did warn you in the beginning,”

Yeongwol’s eyes looked at Chun Yeowun who spoke frigidly. Cold metal passed through her wrists before she could even regain her composure.

Slash! Thuk!

Yeongwol’s eyes widened as she realized what happened. She screamed so loud that veins began to pop on her neck and face.

“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”

Just like the other court ladies, Yeongwol couldn’t feel any pain. But how many people could be composed seeing their hands cut off and fall onto the floor right in front of them? She was expecting for the black sword to stop, but her hands were cut in a single strike.
