The wind stopped the gunfire

His gun only fires when he takes a hit. Her wind can see everything, but it cannot block everything. Two months before the unified special abilities exam in their final year of high school, Shen Yan and Su Wan cross paths in the river valley of Qinglan Wilderness. She shields him from the fangs lurking in the dark; he cuts down the threats closing in on her. Trust grows out of a wound, and after a bloody battle comes the words “I believe in you.” In the thorn-filled wilds, they watch each other’s backs, and by the moonlight of the spiritual spring, they make each other a promise. Over two months of traveling together, they fill in each other’s last weaknesses, becoming the sharpest blade the other has.
