Chapter 344: The Crimson Lotus Sword
The Four Kings’ defeat and death.
The shocking news sent the martial world into uproar once more.
The master of the Four Kings Alliance—a figure ranked among the world’s top two and one of the three great powers—had been defeated and killed.
No recent news, no matter how sensational, could have shocked the martial world as much as this.
What was even more shocking was that the one who defeated him was not one of the Fifteen Absolute Masters.
Hai Qingyan, daughter of the Sword Saint Hai Yunbai.
The absurd fact that she, still in her twenties, had defeated the Four Kings’ Gui Gexian, could not help but send shockwaves through the entire martial world.
Now, martial artists everywhere began discussing her with everyone they met.
“Hae Cheong-yeon? The daughter of the Sword Saint, now twenty-two years old? There was such a young lady? And that she defeated the Four Kings? Does that even make sense?”
This was the common reaction shared by everyone upon first hearing the news.
To fill in the gaps, martial arts enthusiasts eagerly began investigating the circumstances of the time and the person known as Hae Cheong-yeon.
As a result, information about her filled in at a rapid pace.
“She’s the third daughter of the renowned swordsman, Grand Master Haeunbaek! Apparently, she was famous from a young age as both a genius and a beauty! Her talent and looks were so extraordinary that she deliberately avoided public appearances and wore her bangs down to cover her face?!”
