Chapter 217 Jin So-eun-5
Jin So-eun’s eyes were fixed on that man.
Somehow, it felt like she had to.
He was someone with a strange, magnetic power that drew the gaze.
And in the next instant, the man’s figure vanished from the mast as if erased.
Swish!
Jin So-eun was startled.
It felt like she had seen a ghost.
“?!
But she soon realized he wasn’t a ghost.
He had vanished from the mast, only to suddenly appear at the bow of the ship she was on.
Standing on the bow as if he had materialized out of thin air, he asked in a low voice.
“Are you the pirates of Baekgyobang?”
Only then did Baekgyobang’s Four Heavenly Kings recognize his presence. They hurriedly drew their swords and shouted.
“Who are you?!”
“What are you?!”
Then he gave a sly smile and asked again.
“Aren’t you going to ask if we’re pirates from Baekgyobang?”
Jin So-eun stared blankly at him.
Beneath the darkening sky stood a man in dazzlingly white robes, as if they might glow, and his handsome features seemed to radiate even more light than the robes themselves.
‘Baekgyobang?’
Jin So-eun repeated the name silently to herself.
The four peak masters now wore flustered expressions just from hearing that name.
As the man in white had said, they seemed to be members of Baekgyobang.
‘If it’s Baekgyobang, then surely…’
It was a name I had heard just yesterday from my younger sister, Jin Ga-in.
A sect in the middle ranks of the sects that had recently grown rapidly and become the second most powerful force in Gwangju after the Jin Family Sect.
