Synopsis

The chapter opens with the besieged group preparing to descend Gingcheng Mountain under the cover of darkness, as their supplies dwindle. Simultaneously, the Murim Alliance strategizes, realizing their opponent used poison dust not to kill, but to instill fear and create a one-on-one scenario. A separate character, seemingly aware of the situation, discusses how they will get their desired revenge, and an antagonist makes a direct assault toward the mountain while shrouded in poison dust. Finally the protagonist's group discusses recent events.
