Night of the Broken Gliph-Chapter 99 (1)

It was a successful escape, but Chor Shing Chit did not even slow down slightly. He sped towards the Engraved Village, trying to return to the inn as soon as possible so he could get Chui Yim to check on Wong Kwan who was seriously injured.

Chor Shing Chit was aware of how bad the injury was; Wong Kwan activated the gliph by overexerting her energliph, an action that would cause serious injury to ones wind chamber if careless.

He trusted Chui Yims medicine skills after all.

Seeing a man sprinting into the village with a woman and a child in his arms, the villagers werent exactly shocked. They had already learnt about the beast tide that took place now, twenty years after the previous one, too.

But Chor Shing Chit realised that something was out of place as soon as he entered the inn. Bak Wun, who sensed how anxious Chor Shing Chit was, came out of the room.

Whats with that kid again!? Bak Wun was left speechless upon seeing Chui Yim, who was on Chor Shing Chits back.

Chor Shing Chit immediately placed Wong Kwan on the bed and Chui Yim down to the ground. Chui Yim had his eyes shut tight; he had turned red like a shrimp and vapour was evaporating from his body just like the previous time!

After being placed on bed, Wong Kwan heaved a sigh of relief and released the gliph strings on her students. Cough! She couldnt hold back anymore and threw up blood again.

Her five students who had just escaped death rushed to Wong Kwans side. Some of them wept so hard that they could not even speak properly. They were only youths ultimately, and the previous event was too frightening for them to take.

Ha Yu Bing did not cry. Being a member of the Ha Clan, she started cultivating from a young age, making her the unyielding girl she was today. Even when facing death, she was the first to turn around with the determination to go all out to fight for her life.

Serves him right for being a glutton! Thus, she was able to reply fast and even stare at Chui Yim curiously.

Hearing Ha Yu Bing, Bak Wuns sight immediately landed on the huge bone Chui Yim held onto. He saw faint, golden gliphs on the bone. Bak Wun was dumbstruck. He was a knowledgeable person, especially when it came to food. However, even he was unable to identify what beast the bone belonged to. This bone alone was enough to faintly suppress Bak Wun, making him feel repressed. All he could tell was that the bone belonged to a high grade gliphic beast.

That kiddo ate something wrong! Bak Wun understood what happened immediately. The bone is from a powerful gliphic beast, and his body, which ha yet to breakthrough, cant digest it!

Chor Shing Chit looked at Bak Wun seriously. As a disciple of the Chor Clan, he grew up eating many g-food, and he knew that not every g-food was suitable for everyone. Unlike g-elixirsthat help children to grow, g-food brought about direct physical or energliph growth. If one were to consume a legendary grade six gliphic beasts meat, he would not turn into a powerful cultivator right away; instead, his body would explode and hed bid the world goodbye. This was why g-food were graded accordingly.

Just a bite of the grade six gliphic beasts meat was enough to blow up the wind chamber and kill a ten-gliphic or even hundred-gliphic gliphist of wind chamber explosion.

This was also the reason why Sit Ting chose seamouth as an ingredient for her soup, as it was suitable for people like Chui Yim and Lam Ming who had not even stepped into the one-chambered state.

Even though Chor Shing Chit had just saved their life, the Great Book Academy students only met him for the first time. There was none of them who cared about Chui Yims state; their attention were all on Wong Kwan, who was currently as pale as the moon and letting out blood coughs from time to time. Wong Kwan remained silent but only stared at Chor Shing Chit silently as if she could do it forever.

As the Ha Clans missy, Ha Yu Bing was a self-centred girl. She had been ordering people around from a young age, and only treated Wong Kwan respectfully because she sincerely did.

Shut up! What kind of attitude are you showing? Wong Kwans face fell instantly at Ha Yu Bings words. After yelling at Ha Yu Bing, Wong Kwan coughed blood again.

Im just very worried about you, miss Ha Yu Bing who was never ever yelled at by Wong Kwan replied dumbfoundedly.

Chor Shing Chit glared at Ha Yu Bing coldly and turned to Bak Wun. Take care of Chui Yim, Ill go take a look. Bak Wun rolled his eyes in response but said nothing and watched Chui Yim closely for changes. Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do.

After consuming g-food, it would turn into energy after digestion and spread to all parts of the body, unlike elixir in which the impact could be controlled after they took effect.

Out of the blue, Bak Wun stopped in his tracks. Chui Yims chest lit up in red colour, and the flush on his skin disappeared almost immediately, as if a spark of fire was being extinguished. After some time, he fell asleep and even started snoring.

Watching the scene and remembering that she was being scolded by Ms Wong whom she truly respected because of Chui Yim, Ha Yu Bing couldnt hold her dismay in anymore. This country bumpkin! Look at him, how could anything happen to him! Hes asleep now. It must be an act previously.

What are you saying! Wong Kwan pushed away Chor Shing Chit who was looking at her injury and gave Ha Yu Bing a slap in anger. What did I teach you? To be respectful and humble! Even if we were to put the fact that they have saved our lives aside, is this something you should say to strangers? Is this even reasonable?

It was a light slap as Wong Kwan was injured, but it was a heavy mental blow to Ha Yu Bing. She stood up and ran out of the room.

Senior sister! The other students ran after her, leaving only Bak Wun, Chor Shing Chit, Wong Kwan and Chui Yim who was fast asleep in the room.

Whats that for? Chor Shing Chit sighed calmly.

It reminds me of myself twenty years ago. Wong Kwan smiled wryly and vomited blood again.

Twenty? Its nineteen. Chor Shing Chit corrected her, unpertubed.

Ah right Wong Kwan laid on the bed, murmuring to herself. Its nineteen

Being too emotional and seriously injured, Wong Kwan could take it no more and fainted.

Chui Yim felt himself shrouded in a comforting warmness, as if he was laying in a pool of warm water. He opened his eyes to realise that he was lying on the bed. Hearing his movement, Chor Shing Chit sitting by the window woke up immediately.

Youre awake?

Chui Yim nodded in response. Even before checking his situation, he turned to Wong Kwan who was lying on another bed. Whats wrong with her?

She used up all the energliph in her wind chamber to block the lion pride, Chor Shing Chit replied gloomily while standing up to make way. She has the Snow Melted Ocean gliph tattooed on her wind chamber. But since she exhausted all her energliph, there are signs of her wind chamber breaking apart.

So serious! Chui Yim jumped up. Why did you not wake me up earlier?

He sprinted towards Wong Kwan, sticking out his index and middle finger to feelWong Kwans pulse.
