Chapter 288 Yangju Dongga-3
Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province.
Nestled right beside the Yangtze River, this place had long developed as a hub for transportation and logistics. For nearly a century, it had been ruled by the Yangju Dong Family.
Moreover, the Yangjudoong Clan had been a place that produced generations of individuals possessing outstanding martial arts skills and strategic acumen since the time of Dong Cheon-woo, the cold-blooded demon general of the founding Tongcheonbang era.
Thus, from the Tongcheonbang era to the Four Kings Alliance, it had never relinquished its position as the second-strongest faction.
At least, that was the case until about twenty years ago.
Dong Jung-seo, the current head of the Yangju Dong Clan, was a man of exceptional martial prowess.
He was currently strolling through the garden, reading a letter sent by Gweojeonggi, the eldest son of the Four Kings.
Though he had read it several times already, he read it again and again, as if determined to commit it entirely to memory.
The letter read as follows.
– A man calling himself Seolpung, claiming to be a descendant of the Seol clan, will go there. Remember this: how you treat him will determine your future and that of the Yangju Dong family. I trust the Dong family head.
Dong Jung-seo, who had been reading it with cold eyes, suddenly muttered as if spitting it out.
“Arrogant bastard.”
Though Gwejeonggi was the most prominent candidate for the next Four Kings, he still held no position within the Four Kings Alliance.
