Chapter 460: Heavenly Motion (4)
The two sat on a roughly woven straw mat.
A tall, youthful boy and a stocky middle-aged man. The corner of the brown hemp mat repeatedly lifted and fell with the wind, making a dull, rhythmic sound as it slapped against the ground.
“...Why won’t it budge?”
Mount Hua’s Hidden Dragon, Yu Hyeon, murmured as he pulled one knee toward his chest.
At his waist hung a sword adorned with a plum blossom engraving, adding an enigmatic air to him.
Though still a boy, he exuded a sharp presence, as if he were a sheer cliff cut with a blade. He was the embodiment of Mount Hua’s thousand-year swordsmanship.
Yet even Mount Hua’s Hidden Dragon could not draw Yeorae.
Despite having fully absorbed most of the Jaso Pellet, which had greatly lengthened his limbs, and despite making significant strides in Mount Hua’s secret internal cultivation techniques, it was all in vain.
The sword remained utterly immovable. That was the reason for Yu Hyeon’s deep sense of frustration. Yeorae was like the embodiment of its former master’s unyielding will.
“A divine sword that finds the right master often becomes a sacred treasure. Sometimes, it even manifests miracles,” said a man with a neatly groomed beard.
He was a middle-aged man who wore a smooth, green long robe that suited him perfectly.
Poison Commander, Tang Unhwang.
