Chapter 208: Haenam Sect Head Meeting – Part 2
Ultimately, the meeting could only conclude with Jin Taedo stepping down.
Even Miao Qingzhu, the head of the Miao clan who had tried to mediate somehow, could do nothing more now and demanded that Jin Taedo yield. In response, Jin Taedo stated he would reconsider his position on the naval forces, forcing the meeting to be postponed for a week.
As soon as the meeting ended, Jin Taedo, unable to contain himself any longer, stormed out of the conference room first.
Bang!
His departure was a stark contrast to his usual demeanor, where he would stay until the very end, smiling as he saw the other heads off.
An unbearable rage seemed to emanate even from his retreating figure.
Startled by his actions, the heads of the Chukga, Mika, Sulga, and Haega clans hurriedly called out to him and rushed after him.
“Hey, Headmaster!”
“Master Jin!”
“W-wait!”
Once they all vanished outside the conference room, leaving it quiet, Oh Ik-deok, who had been holding back laughter, finally couldn’t contain himself and burst out laughing.
“Hahahahahaha! I’ve never seen that snake lose his temper and reveal his true colors like that before! Among my recent meetings, today’s has been the most satisfying! It feels like a weight has been lifted off my chest, brother! Hahahahahaha!”
Shin Du-wol, the head of the Shin family with his small but sturdy build, joined in with a hearty laugh.
“Kekekekekeke! I feel exactly the same! Utterly exhilarating! I must return at once and hammer the iron! If I forge a sword while maintaining this feeling, it should become a truly remarkable blade! Kekekekeke!”
