Chapter 209: The Sovereign’s Journey
Baek Moo-jin sat alone at the table in the main hall, drinking tea. Neither his family nor Seo Moon-geuk or the kings were present.
Time had passed, and Baek Moo-jin was now over thirty, yet his appearance remained unchanged from his twenties.
Suddenly, Baek Moo-jin noticed the teapot on the table and recalled teasing Seo Moon-geuk back in the North Heaven Alliance. Of course, his brief connection with Ju Ja-woon remained vivid in his memory too.
Suddenly, Baek Moo-jin, still holding his teacup, infused it with an extremely subtle chill.
Today, feeling particularly restless, he intended to drink it cool and refreshing when the main hall door quietly opened and the steward announced.
“Master, everything is ready.”
Baek Moo-jin nodded, his expression sour as he looked outside.
It was not what he had wished for.
He had no desire to prolong it.
But Baek Moo-jin was in a position where he couldn’t just live as he pleased in the martial world.
‘I suppose I should experience it at least once.’
As Baek Moo-jin set down the tea he was about to drink and infused it with the extreme yang energy imbued with the essence of the Emperor of Fire, the water in the teacup vanished in an instant. He had never been lazy in his training, not even for a single day. Rather, Baek Moo-jin was practicing martial arts in every situation of his daily life.
Baek Moo-jin stepped outside the main hall.
It was a spring day with a refreshing breeze blowing just right.
