The Jade Cutting Saber drifted gently downward, seemingly devoid of power and slow in speed. Yet it was like the gloom within one's heart. Unless one recognized it and walked out of it by oneself, it would follow one forever, impossible to escape or resist. One might think one had already forgotten it, but at a particular time and in a particular place, the sight of something would stir old feelings, returning one to the past.
The assassin raised his head coldly and looked upward in confusion. Meng Qi's body loomed like a hill, blocking the sunlight shining down.
