Chapter 205: Hae Cheong-yeon’s Faith
“What?! What happened?!”
Zhuge Jigang couldn’t hold back and shouted back.
It was because he simply couldn’t believe what he had just heard.
Then, the Black Dragon Commander and Black Wolf Commander, their expressions utterly ruined, returned and trembled as they spoke again.
“T-there was a… a monster there.”
“It… it was an immortal. When that old man danced like an immortal, no one survived.”
“It, it must be the return of the Sword Saint! The Sword Saint has become a vengeful spirit to punish us! AAAAAHHH!”
“It… didn’t seem like the Sword Saint. His appearance was closer to an immortal than a vengeful spirit.”
Zhuge Jigang gritted his teeth.
What on earth had he been through? The Black Wolf Lord, a veteran of every battle imaginable from the Shadow Squad, was utterly terrified, his mind gone.
The Black Dragon Lord seemed somewhat more composed, but even so, the notion of an immortal was utter nonsense.
Anyway, whether that guy was a monster or an immortal, that wasn’t the important part.
What mattered was that the Black Tiger Corps had been annihilated, and only half of the Black Dragon and Black Wolf Brigades had returned alive.
Of the three hundred elite warriors who had set out, only a mere hundred had returned.
“What the hell is this…”
Zhuge Jigang suddenly realized his hands were trembling uncontrollably.
His ambition to rebuild his forces while enduring hardships on the front lines and reclaim the position of overlord was slipping away.
