Chapter 62: The Guest and the Bastard 3
When Seo Mun Dancheon remained silent, a brief stillness fell over the main hall. Baek Mu Jin glared at Seo Mun Dancheon, waiting for him to speak.
But unless Ximen Dantian was a fool, he wouldn’t speak carelessly to Bai Muzhen. Thus, the very act of remaining silent felt humiliating to Ximen Dantian. His insides were boiling with rage, yet his body remained rigid.
For that not-too-long period, Seo Mun Dancheon wrestled with his thoughts incessantly. Considering the pride of the Seo Mun Clan’s young master, charging at Baek Mu Jin immediately would have been the right thing to do. But to save his own life, enduring it was the right thing to do.
Seo Mun Dancheon was already strangely bothered by Baek Mu Jin’s fingers.
He had clearly seen the cold aura swirling around it.
But to freeze the entire table with a seemingly light finger technique? That was something Seo Mun Dancheon could never have anticipated.
Moreover, the white icicles extending beneath the table signaled that Baek Moo-jin’s internal energy level transcended the ordinary, reaching a realm beyond Seo Mun Dancheon’s grasp.
At that moment, the main hall doors creaked open. The Executive Council member entered and immediately unfurled an order document, as if to proclaim the leader’s command. It shattered the silence at a most exquisite moment.
Having been roaming various parts of the Northern Heavenly Alliance, the Executive Council member, without properly surveying the situation in the main hall, jumped straight to the main point.
