Chapter 168 News-1
The first thing I did after Am Hyeol-hyang died was to find the three ronin warriors.
My body wasn’t fully recovered, and I was drained from the tremendous battle, but that didn’t matter much.
Without a moment’s hesitation, I set out to find them.
‘Please, please!’
I knew full well that realistically, it was unlikely they were still alive.
Given the skills Am Hyeol-hyang had demonstrated, she could have easily killed all three of them before meeting me again.
But I threw all such rational judgment aside.
I just prayed desperately in my heart, over and over, that they would be alive.
– Master Jang! Master Jong! Master Gong!
When I searched for them, shouting with all my might, the first to answer was Master Gong.
“Master Seonwoo?! Is it truly you?”
He appeared completely unharmed, likely having not yet encountered the Dark Cave Sect.
It was a tremendous relief.
Seeing he was unharmed, my heart swelled with relief.
“Master Gong! You’re safe!”
“Young Master Seonwoo! Why did you come here?! How are you…?!”
“I’m fine! Everything’s fine now!”
It was such a relief that he was alive.
Tears threatened to spill over.
But I couldn’t relax and talk with him yet.
I had to find both Master Jang and Master Jong.
I hoisted Master Gong onto my back and began dashing like a whirlwind in the direction he had indicated.
It was the direction Master Jang and Master Jong had fled.
But knowing the direction alone made finding people anything but easy.
