Chapter 207: Like a Flame
The Sword Emperor briefly lowered his sword, and the Sect Leader slammed his magic staff into the floor with a thud, gazing at Baek Moo-jin.
Both men exhaled simultaneously.
The only man here who had fought against Jin Cheon-yeong of the Heavenly Lord Sect was Baek Moo-jin. Suddenly, the Sword Emperor wondered how great the gap in martial prowess was between Jin Cheon-yeong and themselves.
The Sword Emperor asked.
“Jin Chenying… How does he compare to us? Since you defeated him, you should know.”
The Sect Leader nodded and added.
“I’d like to hear your honest opinion.”
By now, Baek Moo-jin could barely tell who was the Sword Emperor and who was the Sect Leader.
Baek Moo-jin smiled and clicked his tongue.
“Tsk. Soon, I’ll send you to where the former Heavenly Lord resides. There, you may settle your differences…”
The Sword Emperor’s forehead veins bulged at Baek Moo-jin’s endless arrogance. Baek Moo-jin, still wearing a cold expression, watched the Sword Emperor’s emotional shift.
He sensed an opening.
Baek Mujin looked at the Sect Leader and said.
“Have you run out of options? You seemed to be trying very hard to save the Sword Emperor.”
The Sect Leader chuckled.
“How could that be?”
“Huh? Are you saying you haven’t run out of options… or that you never intended to save the Sword Emperor? That’s ambiguous.”
Baek Moo-jin pointed this out, and the Sword Emperor retorted.
