Chapter 320: Hyeon Won (15)
The grand city stretched endlessly, a forest of tiled roofs covering the landscape.
The core leaders of the Blood Sect, including Salhyup, were scattered throughout Taiyuan.
They had all mastered martial arts that allowed them to sense the size, distribution, and gaze of the surrounding crowd.
It was called Hogum Sense Technique—a supreme skill known across the martial world.
“Have those monsters really disappeared? Just a few days ago, the city was in chaos.”
“Who knows... Either way, it’s best not to go out after dark. I heard that all the children of the Zhang family, who run the fabric store near the well, vanished. Let’s finish delivering this and get back home quickly.”
“Yeah, yeah. If we hold out, sooner or later, the military or Ipwang’s swordsmen will step in. Before we see the full moon three times, at least. That’s how it’s always been, according to my father.”
“To be honest, even if they do come, I’m ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) worried. The other day, I caught a glimpse of someone leaping across three rooftops at once. Ipwang’s warriors aren’t invincible, after all. These days, warriors are dying all over the place... No matter how skilled a single swordmaster is, one treasured sword can’t beat a hundred iron ones.”
“Who knows? Maybe even Prince Nezha of Ipwang will come. The whole city of Pyeongyang was in an uproar recently. Zhuge Cheonsang, the Reincarnated Dragon, is dead.”
“Hah! The Lotus Prince? Dream on. You’d be lucky just to meet one of the White-Clad Warriors and be able to bow to them.”
“Don’t act like you wouldn’t do the same.”
This conversation drifted through the streets as a group of merchants pulled a cart stacked with straw.
