Chapter 177: Turmoil
Baek Moo-jin stared at Jinbi’s corpse for a moment.
Preparations were necessary, as war was imminent. Looking down the hill, he saw it already lit up as bright as day. If Jinbi had acted alone, it was highly likely that Bicheon’s men had already left. After all, if Jinbi failed, they would surely be slaughtered by Baek Moo-jin.
‘Jinbi wouldn’t be that stupid.’
Baek Moo-jin’s position was exposed.
On the other hand, Baek Moo-jin didn’t know the location of the ‘Celestial Gate,’ didn’t know who had joined Bicheon, and had no idea how Bicheonju and his sons would respond.
Simply hiding somewhere temporarily to gauge the enemy’s strength would be meaningless.
It would have been easier if Bicheon had appeared in full force to engage Baek Moo-jin in a decisive battle, but the fact that he commanded the White Path was inconvenient.
Or resort to stratagems.
Or incite them.
He could have used all of this while simultaneously sending the masters of the Baekdo sect first.
The more he thought about it, the more infuriating it became.
‘They’re clearly formidable bastards.’
While Baek Moo-jin was deep in thought, Jin So-hye and the others, using their lightness skills, scanned the area and discovered him, rushing over in a swarm.
It was a relief to see Baek Moo-jin unharmed, but the moment they discovered the youngest son of Bicheon lying cold and lifeless, they all realized what the next crisis would be.
Kwonwang clicked his tongue and said.
