Chapter 160: Dragon Stomach Cave
Having successfully stopped Baekgung Baek from burning them alive with hellfire, I silently began facing off against the White Dragon Sect members.
“……”
Just watching them, I could feel their growing impatience.
Soga Ju was captured, and I hadn’t even been able to confirm whether my comrades were alive or dead.
But charging into battle wasn’t an option either, with that Fire Demon King, Baekgung Baek, present.
However, this was the martial world, where anything could happen anytime, anywhere.
I could never let my guard down, so I gripped my sword tighter and aimed it at Baek Muha.
Just in case.
Well.
Pfft. Pssst.
Though I did occasionally make the mistake of lightly poking Bai Muha with the tip of my blade.
“What the hell are you doing?!”
“Whoa! You scared the hell out of me! I almost put a hole in your young master’s neck. Can’t you be more careful?”
“Kch…”
This is fun. Pfff.
“What are you going to do?”
Baekgong Baek asked with a bored look.
“I’ll wait.”
“Until when?”
“Until they send someone from the Seongju Palace.”
“……Annoying. Might as well just—”
“No. It’s not just the White Dragon Hall that could be destroyed; my master and I could be destroyed too.”
“I’ve always felt it, but your cowardice is your flaw.”
“Master is the one without fear. Most people live like this.”
Bukgung Baek shook his head and sighed.
“I suppose there’s no helping it.”
“What’s no helping it…”
He reached his hand toward the moon.
