Chapter 556: Five Swords, Six Stars (3)
The city at the base of Guanghon Mountain, built entirely of ashen stone walls, was called Soul Extinction.
The townspeople who had fearlessly watched the standoff between the Four Kings of Dragon Resonance and Jeong Yeon-shin had vanished without a trace.
Only the curved rooftops of the houses, rising sharply like hooked blades, split the winter air with a faint rustle.
Black roofs atop blindingly white walls. With every person suddenly gone, the contrast between black and white became stark.
Somewhere in an unseen stable, the sound of restless thoroughbreds snorting occasionally blended with the cold mountain air.
"The kings of the southern Demonic Realm have gathered."
The Shame King laughed, stroking the side of a horse slung over her shoulder. She hadn’t taken a single step from where she stood, her own city behind her.
"Rarely does something like this happen. Whatever the reason, it's worth remembering."
The Northern Martial World, the Ming Dynasty's martial arts sphere, and the military stationed along the Great Wall—
All would respond in their own ways. The eyes focused on Guanghon Mountain in this moment were too many to count.
The meeting of the four Northern Kings was an event with the power to shake the world.
Yet Jeong Yeon-shin only gazed silently at the scene unfolding before him.
