Chapter 53: The Palace Master’s Sword, Wind and Cloud
Learning the Yongcheon Sword Art was enjoyable.
Discovering a field he had known nothing about was deeply interesting in itself, but more than that, the beautiful and captivating movements performed by Gi Seoran and Po Eunryeong were more than enough to seize Jincheon’s attention.
Drinking tea together, asking questions, and listening to their answers — it made him forget the passage of time.
Thus, after spending a satisfying three days, Jincheon departed from Nanzhou.
The kindly, rotund Commissioner offered to see him off, but Jincheon declined. Without any fanfare or ceremony, the party safely left Nanzhou and headed toward Seoan.
Clack, clack.
Jincheon gazed out of the carriage at the passing scenery.
As soon as they left Nanzhou, the atmosphere shifted noticeably.
The road from Jucheon to Nanzhou had been barren to the point of desolation, but beyond Nanzhou, green mountains and forests began to occasionally reveal themselves.
It was a landscape familiar to Jincheon, which naturally lowered his sense of alertness — and made him feel even more bored.
“Maybe I should review the forms of the Yongcheon Sword Art?”
Jincheon slowly closed his eyes.
