Night of the Broken Gliph

Chapter 51

Chapter 51

Send me to heaven? Kan Hang snickered despite wearing a serious expression on his face. Youre thinking too highly of yourself. 

Despite Kan Hang's words, Mo Yung Kwong wasnt angered. He smiled at him politely. Our status might be different; Mr Kan is the Emperor Lams strongest imperial guard, while Im just a nobody. But due to our similar style and state of cultivation, our names are always put together. 

Saying this, Mo Yung Kwong turned around to look at the blazing sun slowly rising in the sky, smiling even wider. Of course, Mo Yung does look up to Mr Kan. Thats why I spent the whole night chasing after you, but only attacked at dawn. Mo Yung is aware of how Mr Kans ability is stronger at night while Mu Yungs ability is stronger in the day. 

But how much energliph are you left with after chasing me with the Feather of Light Gliph after the entire night? Kan Hang asked emotionlessly. Forty or thirty percent? 

What about yourself Mr Kang? Not even twenty percent, right? Moreover The smile didnt vanish from Mu Yung Kwongs face as he looked down at Kan Hangs hands which Kan Hang had been hiding behind his back all the time. The black serpent blossom poison If you dont drive out the poison in time, Im afraid even as a four-chambered glipher, Mr Kan might not feel too good too.  

Lam Ming Sum might be timid, but she was a clever girl, or she wouldnt constantly rank in the top two during examinations with Chui Yim during school. She would be a pig if she was still unable to tell that the person in front of them was here for her life. Hearing Mo Yung Kwong, her eyes trailed down to Kan Hangs hand. 

Only then did she realise that his hands were as black as soot, just like how her mothers was

Obviously, Kan Hang would like to expel the poison if he had the time. But due to the chase, he didnt have any time to do so as he spent the time escaping with Lam Ming Sum. It took about half a day to expel the poison, and it was too much time for him, who was racing against time. Now, the poison had already seeped into his veins, and his hands had started to turn numb. But this didnt bother him as all he wanted to do was to send Lam Ming Sum back to the palace, even if he had to sacrifice himself. 

Shut your eyes, Kan Hang said to Lam Ming Sum slowly. Lam Ming Sum shut her eyes tightly. As soon as she did so, the smile disappeared from Mo Yung Kwongs face as his wings appeared. He created an energy ball and charged towards Kan Hang. 

Kan Hang remained still, but his chest, stomach and both feet lit up. He had not broken through his arm chambers. Thus, the injury in his hands didnt really affect his strength. 

As soon as his chambers lit up, dawn broke. However, part of the sky that was still dark was torn down and turned into an embroidered cloth, shrouding Kan Hang and Lam Ming Sum. 

Szz! Mo Yung Kwongs figure dashed past Kan Hang. 

The Feather of Light Gliph was a gliph, but not his method of attack. His gliphility was to  make use of the speed the gliph gave him to make his Feathers of Light as sharp as knives. 

His gliphility was known as the Breaking Space Wings. 

His wings turned as tough as a knife as he flew towards Kan Hang, slicing everything in front of him. However, there was only a ripple of black energy when the tough Feather of Light knife cut the embroidered cloth of the sky. 

The rumors are indeed true. Mr Kan Imperial Guard Nightwalker Hangs most famous gliphilities, Embroidered Cloth and Nightwalk are indeed amazing. This is the first time I have ever come across something the Breaking Space Wings failed to cut! Mo Yung Kwongs hearty laughter rang out while his intent to battle soared! It seemed like a practice fight instead of a deadly one. But Kan Hang was clear of how strong the other partys killing intent was.

The cheerful Mo Yung Kwong was determined to kill him and Lam Ming Sum. Not only that, he was sure that Mo Yung Kwong was sent by the mastermind behind all this. 

The entire space turned weird as Mo Yung Kwong sped up. He was so fast that he ended up looking like rays of light revolving around Kan Hang. It looked like there were several Mo Yung Kwongs attacking Kan Hang. 

Unlike Mo Yung Kwong, as the Emperors shadow, Kan Hang was better at defending and speed compared to attacking. Embroidered Cloth was a defensive gliphility, while Nightwalk was a movement-attribute gliphility which gave Kan Hang the ability to protect Emperor Lam even when encountering a five-chambered glipher. 

But one cannot make an omelette without breaking an egg, so Kan Hang didnt have many attack skills while Mu Yung Kwong was fast and good at attacking, perfect for overcoming Kan Hang. 

Just like how Sit Tings death was perfectly planned. 

Kan Hang gritted his teeth and turned into a ball of shadows before disappearing into thin air. The next minute, he appeared a hundred meters from where he originally stood. The sun has just risen, Mr Kan Hangs Nightwalk is a lot less powerful now, right? 

Kan Hang didnt respond. He dodged instinctively as another ray of light shot past him. Mo Yung Kwong didnt stop just because of this. He turned his body mid-air instantly as light flowed out of his shoulders, chest and stomach, and the thin wings changed into the shape of eight spears. 

Go! 

Buzzzzzzzzzzzz! 

Four rays of light landed on the embroidered cloth and disappeared under the embroidered cloths ripple. Kan Hang managed to dodge two of them while the last two passed through the cracks of the cloth and stabbed into both of Kan Hangs legs. 

Hmph! 

Kan Hang groaned and fell to the ground, together with Lam Ming Sum who was wrapped up in the cloth. She knocked onto her nose and had a nosebleed. 

Seeing that his attack landed, Mo Yung Kwong heaved a sigh of relief. Precisely as they mentioned, both parties didnt have much energliph left after the night-long chase. Both had given their all in the previous battle, but now that Kan Hangs legs were injured, he was unable to fight anymore. 

Mo Yung Kwong didnt spare Kan Hang a look as he focused on Lam Ming Sum. He was clear that he was ordered to kill Lam Ming Sum. As soon as Kan Hang didnt stop him, hed let him go, but not the child. 

He walked towards Lam Ming Sum but stopped in his tracks. He turned around to see Kan Hang grabbing his ankle with his pitch-black hands. 

Hah Mo Yung Kwong sighed. The world views us alongside, Mr Kan, so please stop your embarrassing actions. As soon as he finished his words, a light spear appeared and shot through Kan Hangs wrist, nailing his hand to the ground. 

Kan Hang released his grip due to the pain, and Mo Yung Kwong continued towards Lam Ming Sum, who was screaming her heart out in fear. The scene unfolding in front of her was too bloody for a ten-year-old. 

Mo Yung Kwong walked towards Lam Ming Sum with a poker face. She was curled up and kept her hands in front of her chest, looking like a shrimp while screaming incomprehensible sounds.

What a pity

Mo Yung Kwong mumbled to himself as a light spear appeared right behind him. 

Take good care of this. When youre in danger, the mechanism in it will protect you. I wanted to name it, but my naming skills are So yeah, youll be the one to name it. 

Leave with this man, and survive no matter what. As a girl, you need to be meticulous in everything. 

Lam Ming Sum felt her hand turn warm. The blade of the knife that was supposed to be cold felt warm, making her clear-headed instantly. 

Brother Chui! 

She grabbed onto the handle and felt a button below. From the appearance, nobody would realise the existence of the button. It could only be felt with ones hand due to its small size and hidden location, yet it was rigid enough to eliminate the possibility of pushing it on accident. 

When Lam Ming Sum felt the button, she pressed it without hesitation. 

At the same time, the light spear behind Mo Yung Kwong arrived in front of her chest. 

Buzz! 

Two rays of light shot out from Lam Ming Sums chest. One was light yellow and the other one dark blue. 

The lights were flowing yet liquid at the same time, twisting continuously. Just right before the spear reached Lam Ming Sums chest, it was tangled by the two rays of light and couldnt move. 

What is this? When Mo Yung Kwong came back to his senses, he realised that his spear was shooting back towards him. 

Whoosh! 

Mo Yung Kwong reacted quickly as he dodged subconsciously, making the spear land on his shoulder instead of his heart. 

Ahhhh! Mo Yung Kwong screamed. 

Similarly, Mo Yung Kwong was injured on his shoulder too, but compared to Kan Hang who didnt have any arm chambers, it caused great damage to Mo Yung Kwong. The attack destroyed his Feather of Light gliph on his left shoulder. 

The construction of a gliph was complete and perfect. Due to this, the locations where gliphs were tattooed tended to be extremely fragile. That was what the gliph covers were for, and better gliphers would even use armour, just like the white coloured robe on Mo Yung Kwong currently. 

However, the spear coming towards him now was his own attack. How would he perform his gliphility if his robe was blocking it? 

Now, this attack, albeit unintentionally, caused a severe injury to Mo Yung Kwong himself. Once a gliph broke, it was never perfect again. 

Broken gliphs in turn caused a backlash to the gliphers body, so being a glipher was a dangerous career. There was currently no backlash from the broken Feather of Light gliph, but it was like a poorly tattooed gliph which caused Mo Yung Kwongs chamber to crack and resulted in a huge loss of energliph. 

At the same time, Kan Hang, who was nailed to the ground, had his eyes lit up as he let out a growl. 

He exerted energy from his feet to stand up and pluck the spear out of his arm. Zzzzz!  Three pitch-black knives with black rays of light trailing after them stabbed into Mo Yung Kwongs chest in a triangle. 

All three knives were grade two weapons, and they were known as the Soul Chasers. 

As the strongest Imperial Guard, why would Kan Hang not have any attacks? It was just that nobody knew about it as he had spent his years protecting Emperor Lam. Night Soul Chaser was this gliphility. 

Three of the Soul Chaser Knives disappeared into Mo Yung Kwongs chest, and the black energliph destroyed all of his vitality. Kan Hang gritted his teeth, enduring the pain and used his hands to make a wave, summoning all Soul Chaser Knives back into his sleeves. It was unknown where he hid them initially either. He then grabbed Lam Ming Sums collar and disappeared once more, leaving the terrible looking corpse to welcome the day alone.
