Chapter 62
A heavy silence filled the Great Elder’s hall.
The palace lords of the Six Palaces were all puzzled by the inexplicable summons of the Great Elder.
“I have gathered you all because I have a request to make of the palace lords.”
At the words of Great Elder Yunhak Jin, the palace lords exchanged confused glances.
Did that not mean there was some urgent matter requiring a collective decision?
“How urgent must this matter be? You summoned us separately right after the Cheongmu Tournament ended.”
At the question from the Hyeonmu Palace Lord, Great Elder Yunhak Jin briefly closed his eyes, then opened them and spoke.
“It concerns the very essence of our sect’s inner current. I could not delay the summons.”
“...?”
“I’ll speak plainly. I wish to make a decision regarding the disposition of Daoist Hyeonmu of Three Spirits Palace.”
In that instant, all the palace lords swallowed hard.
Truthfully, each of them had already been secretly trying to figure out a solution.
