Chapter 180: Show Me the Martial Arts (3)
CRASH! CRACKLE.
Eun Jin-san, the Grand Elder of Baek Eun Mun, slammed his fist down on the table.
Perhaps because it was hastily made from broken wood, it split cleanly in two.
“You insolent fool! How dare you…….”
“……Even if you dislike it, you must endure until the competition ends.”
At the advice of his eldest daughter, Eun Hyeongseol, Eun Jinsan sighed and suppressed his anger.
“Hmph.”
This merger had been distasteful from the start.
To be told outright to unite with Baekseom Sword Sect.
Moreover, Eun Jinsan could not contain his rage at the subsequent proposal from Baekseom Sword Sect’s leader.
The marriage of his eldest daughter, Eun Hyeongseol, to Baekseom Sword Sect’s rumored leader, Baek Jucheol.
On the surface, it seemed unproblematic, but Baek Ju-cheol already had two wives.
In other words, he intended to take Eun Hyeong-seol as a secondary wife.
Eun Jin-san was furious, but he had no choice but to obey the stern command of the main family.
He had to maintain the position of Grand Elder, bestowed as if it were a favor from above.
However, even that patience had now reached its limit.
He could no longer tolerate the Baekseom Sword Sect’s behavior: summoning him for meetings only to deny him a voice, or openly disparaging the Eun Clan’s warriors to his face.

“As long as they exist, there is no way.”
“Where did those bastards even come from…”
