Murim Recurve

"It was hard," Re'Kha said, panting. Now, she felt a bit safer with the presence of the Elder. Thankfully, she hadn't used the storage ring in front of him. Though, she didn't know if he could already determine the truth of the ring.

"Stand back now, Burkurel Re'Kha. I'll take care of it from this point." The Elder said and immediately slammed another lightning bolt on the Blinded Ghost, causing it to focus on defending first. After all, he was aiming right onto its shell.

Moreover, his attacks were precise to the extent not even a hair on the girl was damaged. But, the moment he attacked once, the girl began to run away in fear. But, she didn't run towards Re'Kha to hide behind but was rather running away.

Upon seeing her actions, at the fact that she was blind, but had her head covered by Ghost Qi, the Elder looked at Re'Kha, "Chase after her!"

When he tried to chase her, the Blinded Ghost blocked his path, attacking him nonstop. He immediately knew that it was able to influence and control the girl somehow.

"Those eyes in its centre are mine. Don't damage it," Re'Kha said and gave chase, dodging a couple of attacks flying her way as the Elder covered for her. Upon realising that the Elder was privy to her identity, she wasn't shocked.

After all, to a Martial Master, the clues were enough to figure out her identity. Moreover, even if they seemed secluded, they were updated about everything that happened in their lands. So, with a couple of clues, such as her stature, age, and the brightness of her Tikka jewellery's gem, he could easily narrow in on her identity. After all, she was pretty famous in Burkurel City.

There weren't that many individuals like here in their state. So, it was pretty easy. That was why she just told him to be careful about her eyes as she chased after the girl, all the while replenishing her reserves by inhaling the Water Qi—that her Water Qi Essence continuously emitted.

As they were bound to fight, she had to remain in an optimal condition. And, as she chased after the girl, Re'Kha could hear intermittent screeches on her west, immediately feeling that the mysterious organisation still had some cards up their sleeves.

'They are just supposed to be a branch. But just they alone possess such a frightening foundation. Then, what about the remaining branches. Where are they located? What is the strength of their entire organisation?' Such thoughts plagued her mind as she caught up to the girl, shouting, "Stop, I'm here to save you."

"No, you tried to kill me just now!" The girl screamed as she ran. But, Re'Kha was faster, arriving before her as she cursed, intending to play the bad guy, not having the patience to prove herself to the girl, "If you don't wish to die, hand over your Tikka jewellery."

"No, I won't!" The girl screamed as she tumbled down to the road, crying as a result. Even though she didn't wish to hurt the other party who was in a similar situation as her, Re'Kha had no other choice. After all, the longer she delayed, the harder it would be to destroy the Blinded Ghost that was close to maturity now.

Followed by a flash, the Blinded Ghost appeared, slamming her with its fist, sending her flying. Even though Re'Kha had negated most of the Elemental Qi in the attack using her armour, she was still sent flying from the force.

And, no sooner was she sent flying did the girl run away, behaving as if her earlier cries were just an act. She sprinted with all her speed, making a couple of turns as she tried to throw off her chasers. Moreover, she was returning to the place with the messenger birds, intending to do something.

The Elder burst with an almost transparent white glow as he sprinted through the road with tremendous speeds, covering thrice the height of a person with each leap, soon colliding into the Blinded Ghost that was about to attack Re'Kha once again.

He slammed repeatedly with his hammer Magic Artifact, wounding the Blinded Ghost, forcing it on the defensive thanks to his flurry of attacks at speeds beyond what it was capable of reacting timely.

Re'Kha quickly got up and sprinted, chasing after the girl after activating her Wind Qi perception. Upon figuring out her destination, she returned to using her Water Qi perception while recovering her expended Water Qi.

The girl arrived at her destination and slammed on the door, screaming at the top of her lungs, "Dad, open the door!"

The door flung open as her father exited with a flustered look, worried about her safety as he pulled her in immediately, shouting, "Where were you? It is dangerous to go outside."

"Someone's trying to kill me!" She screamed, breaking into tears immediately, "I ran away because of her. Dad, save me!"

"Prepare our weapons," One of her father's colleagues shouted as everyone in the place armed themselves immediately. The girl only had her father to rely on, so she spent most of the day in their office.

So, almost everyone working in the place knew her. Moreover, thanks to her chirpy personality that didn't vanish even after she had lost her eyes, her willpower spurred them to work harder for a brighter future. So, without any suspicion, they armed themselves by grabbing hold of any weapons they came across.

Even though she was panting from all the running, Re'Kha couldn't stop. Her legs hurt because of the couple of hits she had endured. But even then, she was raring to go, unwilling to relent on this opportunity to kill the Blinded Ghost and reclaim her eyes.

Soon, she arrived before the postal office and kicked open the doors in her hurry, immediately noticing the girl scream at the top of her lungs while pointing at her, "It was her!"

"How dare you try to harm my daughter?" The girl's father bellowed in rage and charged at her, wielding a metal bar he had picked up.
