Chapter 608: Three Swords (1)

Jeong Yeon-shin had lived through an intensely condensed span of time.
He had never wasted a single moment. Every experience held meaning, and the martial arts that arose from them were deeply entwined with his life, like a radiant wheel encircling his heart.
Given enough time, there was no opponent he couldn’t defeat. The same went for cornering an enemy into desperation.
“You’ve locked the gate. I’ve lost.”
The Lord of Cheongeuk finally raised both hands. At some point, as if it had all been a lie, he had already returned the Child’s Dream Sword to its scabbard.
It was only natural.

With Spatial Void completely sealed—
There was no chance he would abandon his beloved sword infused with his spiritual energy and risk a life-or-death duel with Jeong Yeon-shin. This was the very definition of a dead-end. To the Lord of Cheongeuk, it seemed absurd and bleak beyond anything he’d experienced before.
“Well now, living long enough, you really...”
And yet, there was a certain cheerfulness in the voice that came out from beneath his bristly beard.
