Chapter 121: White-Robed Demon Emperor 2
The commander leading the procession raised his hand to halt the movement, then respectfully knelt with both hands pressed together and reported to Dokgo Ryu.
“Master, Baek Moo-jin and his party are present. However, they are currently facing off against two groups that appear to be forces of the Dark Sect.”
At those words, Dugu Liu looked down at the commander and said.
“I have business with Lord Baek of the Snow Mountain Hundred Families. Cut off the knees of anyone who interferes.”
The commander, who had been about to retort with a “Huh?”, quickly regained his composure and replied respectfully.
“Understood.”
Then, the chief steward of the Dugu Clan stepped forward and addressed the assembled crowd.
“Lord Baek Mujin of the Baek Clan of Seolsan has business with the Dokgo Clan. All others, withdraw. Should anyone interfere, their knees shall be severed. This concludes the message from the Lord of the Dokgo Clan.”
“·········.”
A heavy silence fell over the Private Society and the Ghost Spirit Sect.
Then, one by one, they began to smile, and soon, roars of laughter erupted from all corners.
“Hahahahahahaha.”
They knew that no matter how they counted, the number of Dugu Clan members who had gathered did not exceed fifty. Everyone stood silently behind the Dugu Clan Master.
They knew the Dugu Clan’s reputation.
But there were rules in the martial world. For the Dugu Patriarch, who hadn’t even stepped down from his carriage, to demand they cut off their knees without even knowing who they were… it was utterly ridiculous.
