Chapter 49: Top-Tier Sword Technique-1
Military Report of the Martial Arts Alliance.
Zhuge Zhijiang reviewed the report submitted by Xue Wuxin.
It stated that Hae Cheong-yeon had been dealt with, but due to her powerful allies, all other team members had been lost.
Particularly noteworthy in his report was the high praise for Shufeng, the leader of the Thirteenth Division, Seventh Squad.
“Hm, Shu Feng. He single-handedly killed two at the threshold of the peak realm and seven top-tier masters?”
He then reviewed the routine report from the front lines.
It reported that Hae Cheong-yeon had been abducted by the Blood Cult. After reviewing the report, Je Gal Ji-gang nodded. He then inquired about Seol Pung.
“So his background and sect are unknown. This one is also a target for assassination after the war ends. What a waste. It won’t be easy either.”
Zhuge Zhijiang briefly pondered whether someone of that caliber could be persuaded somehow.
He thought it might be worthwhile to visit the front lines personally once more. He could kill two birds with one stone: verify whether Seolpung was indeed a talent worth recruiting and check on the disposition of Haecheongyeon.
But there was no time for prolonged deliberation.
A servant rushed in to report.
“Your Excellency! Lord Hae Un-baek, the Sword Sage, has come to see you.”
Zhuge Zhijiang, slightly startled by his name, asked.
“Sword Saint? What was it about?”
“I don’t know. He just looked extremely angry.”
