I Became an Evolving Lizard in a Martial Arts Novel

Of course, Dan Hwa-Yeon did put up some resistance.

Even if she looks like this, she’s still the sect leader — she argued that in a situation like this, with such a major incident just having happened, how could she possibly leave her post?

She said she had to purge the remaining forces and rebuild the fallen Odukmun, so she couldn’t follow the Great Hero.

She had a point.

But... I didn’t think anything would go better just because Dan Hwa-Yeon stayed behind.

So her opinion was overruled.

Instead, Mother-in-law and the other poison beasts would remain here.

Anansi had been at Odukmun far longer than Dan Hwa-Yeon anyway.

And, frankly, she seemed a lot more competent.

Better to leave things to a professional than have a novice sect leader fumbling around.

Also, it didn’t look good to bring a massive group to the Beast Palace, so Jeoksa, Cheongsa, and the other poison beasts were staying behind too.

Not permanently, of course — after negotiations at the Beast Palace are done, I’ll bring them back.
