Chapter 286 Yangju Dongga-1
The main hall stood empty after everyone had left.
The Four Kings, Gwae Gal-hyeon, sat alone and still upon the dragon throne.
With his eyes closed and one hand propping up his head, he looked as if he were sleeping from exhaustion.
But he wasn’t actually asleep.
Rather, he was maintaining a clearer sense of awareness than anyone else within the Four Kings’ Hall.
His mouth, which had seemed to be in meditation with his eyes closed, suddenly curved into a smile and murmured quietly.
“Not bad. Isn’t that so?”
Then, suddenly, a voice echoed from the empty space where no one had been.
“At that level, he should be more than capable of handling those at the bottom of the thirty-six states. He holds a definite advantage over the Guojingqi Prince, and I suspect he’d be evenly matched with the Guochangqi Prince.”
Sawang Gwaegalhyun sat in his seat, observing the events unfolding within the Sawang Hall.
As the second-strongest man under heaven, his martial prowess allowed him to see outside the Four Kings’ Hall as clearly as the palm of his hand, so this was hardly difficult.
The problem was that the figure lurking in the darkness was also observing the successors in another space, just as the Four Kings were.
Even though he was the Shadow of the Four Kings, utterly unknown to the world.
The Four Kings smiled faintly and said.
“Hwiyeom, so that’s how it appeared to your senses.”
Then, the shadow of the Four Kings called Hwiyeom quietly observed the successors for a moment before speaking again.
