Chapter: 842

The attack was supposed to strike her vertically, cutting her into two.

However, even as he approached, Ran-yeong didn’t move a single step.

‘This energy?’

The energy his sword exuded seemed familiar to her.

However, she knew that she couldn’t move from her position.

Wheeeing!

As she raised her right hand, a wall of flames soared into the air.

Despite his attack being so sophisticated, the sword rays disappeared immediately when blocked by the defensive wall made of flames.

‘You think that can stop me? How naive!’

Baek Jagi knew that her trick wouldn’t work.

His treasured Noble Warrior’s Sword cut through the flames, inching towards her neck.

Clang!

Ran-yeong used her experience to catch the Supreme Commander’s sword that was covered in bluish-black energy between her palms, which had been strengthened with internal energy.

‘Are you stopping it with your hands? Indeed, how monstrous!’

It would be a difficult fight, he had competed with her several times before but had never been able to defeat her.

However, the purpose of the Supreme Commander wasn’t to suppress her.

His goal was something else.

Baek Jagi spoke as he used his qi to push the sword.

“Guardian! Don’t you remember this technique? Didn’t you make it for His Majesty who carried this sword?”

Right.

The sword technique which the Supreme Commander had used, had been created by her.

By showing it to her, he wanted to make her remember the loyalty she had towards the Imperial family.

“Remember that moment.”

With those words, Baek Jagi’s eyes met with Ran-yeong’s.

The trembling sword in her hand stopped.

“Ah!”

Baek Jagi’s eyes lit up thinking that he had achieved his goal.

At that very moment,

Crack!

‘Broke... Ah!?’
