Chapter 304 Why Is He Here

Did they truly mention… the Ghost Sect?

That name carried an ominous weight, casting shadows upon her thoughts. Initially dismissed as hyperbole by the caregiver lady, it now loomed ominously real.

The man’s movements were swift as lightning. Before Milly could fully grasp the peril, his fist surged towards her with lethal intent. Swiftly, she sidestepped, narrowly evading the blow.

The force was palpable; the wind of its passage grazed her cheek with savage urgency. Her reflexes, keenly honed, spared her from a dire fate.

Her adversary, taken aback by her agility, narrowed his eyes. “I didn’t anticipate such skill.”

Their struggle remained balanced, a contest of wills and wiles.

Injured hand and limited mobility compromised, she found herself at a disadvantage. Her adversary, relentless and tireless, pressed on.

Milly embraced the thrill of
