Chapter 57: The Young Master of the Ximen Clan 2
As Gu Yang Mengzhu and Xumun Danchun began their conversation, Bai Muzhen briefly observed Xumun Geuk’s elder brother as if he were an observer.
‘Is that man the one destined to lead the Xumun Clan into the next era?’
The Xumun Clan, as Xumun Geuk had said, was one of the Five Great Clans of the era. Yet his first impression of Xumun Dancheon was peculiar.
For one thing, his tone was just as arrogant as Xumengu’s.
‘To subtly mix in a rebuke like, “Don’t speak that way to the North Heaven Alliance Leader”?’
While Seo Mun-geuk might seem irritating, he had an endearing quality that made him hard to dislike. Seo Mun-dancheon, on the other hand, appeared to be a man tightly wound with pride in the Seo Mun Clan.
As Baek Moo-jin looked at him, Seo Mun Dan-cheon glanced at the blood-stained Baek Moo-jin and offered a greeting.
“Pleased to make your acquaintance. I am Seo Mun Dancheon.”
Baek Moo-jin recalled his previous greeting with Seo Mun-geuk and smiled in response.
“Baek Moo-jin.”
After introducing himself, Seo Mun Dancheon waited briefly for Baek Moo-jin’s response. When Baek Moo-jin said nothing, he cleared his throat and walked over to stand beside Gu Yang-hu. His demeanor was identical to Seo Mun Gyeok’s.
Pointing toward the North Heaven Alliance, Seo Mun Dancheon said to Gu Yang-hu.
“Let’s go, Lord Alliance Leader.”
“I wish to discuss matters, but we must first return swiftly to the Alliance to sort out the situation.”
