Chapter 192: The Revealed Secret – Part 1
“You seem to be in the midst of training.”
Hae Cheong-yeon, who had been deep in meditation in the courtyard of her residence, slowly opened her eyes at the sudden voice.
Her residence was originally a detached house used by the elders of the Dianchang Sect, a spacious dwelling with a large courtyard that could serve as a training ground.
Seeing the Blood Demon standing before her, she opened her mouth.
“As you can see, that is correct.”
Her expressionless gaze and calm tone somehow conveyed a rebuke for the intrusion during her training.
Then, the Blood Demon smiled faintly and spoke again.
“My apologies for interrupting, young lady. I came bearing news I thought you might like to hear.”
At his words, Hae Cheong-yeon’s eyes lit up.
“Good news?”
Good news for her?
It sounded strange.
If it was good news for her, it must surely be bad news for the Blood Demon Sect.
Sure enough, Xue Ma smiled bitterly and spoke.
“Truthfully, it can’t be anything but devastating news for us. I don’t know about you, but the first place we took you was Aenoesan.”
“…Aenoesan?”
“That’s right. It’s where the Wuhuang Tomb is located. It’s also where the facility that produced the miners used to be.”
At those words, a look of surprise flashed across Hae Cheong-yeon’s face, which had been expressionless lately.
That place, known to have collapsed during the Wuhuang Tomb incident, was actually a production facility for demons? Even though he was captured, it was far too great a secret to reveal to an outsider.
