Chapter 121
A bolt of lightning shot toward a man.
Hong Jagyeong, the vice sect master of the Hwar yeong Sword Sect, barely twisted his body. As the blue lightning grazed his hair, dozens of strands, scorched black, scattered to the ground.
“...So this is the Thunderbolt Heart Technique... It’s truly impressive.”
The blue lightning surging from Song Euigyeong’s sword writhed as if alive.
It was only because it was Hong Jagyeong that he could endure even this much. Had it been anyone else, they would have long departed this world.
Hong Jagyeong’s face was deathly pale.
“...How... did you know?”
“I didn’t figure it out.”
As lightning scattered from the blade, Song Euigyeong stared coldly at Hong Jagyeong.
“It was Lord Seol’s command. That’s all.”
“...Lord... Seol?”
“You still don’t understand.”
