Chapter 30 The Child of Heavenly Scourge
Namgung-woo felt the surrounding gazes converge on them as he observed the man approaching.
Martial artists often retained youthful appearances due to their cultivation, making most of them look younger than their years. Yet, this man seemed to be around thirty.
It wasn’t just his looks; it was an intuitive feeling Namgung-woo had.
‘The Young Clan Head of the Peng Clan.’
His spiritual aura was indeed extraordinary. It was even more stable than Peng Mu-ho’s, who was in the transitional phase between Peak Transcendence and the Peak Transcendence Extreme Realm. He perfectly contained the energy subtly leaking from his body.
‘Peak Transcendence? It’s a bit ambiguous.’
He seemed to be, yet not quite. If he was a Peak Transcendence Master, it was likely he had only just barely reached that level.
While Namgung-woo pondered Peng Ja-ryeong, the man conversed with Peng Ha-ryeong.
“How did you come all this way?”
“You overcame a great crisis and returned, so how could your older brother just wait idly? Besides, our Benefactor, who saved you, is also with you, so it’s only right that I come out to greet them.”
Peng Ja-ryeong meticulously checked his sister’s condition, and only after confirming she was truly unharmed did he shift his gaze around.
“So, where are they? I must offer my thanks first.”
Namgung-woo and the Yang brothers stood beside Peng Ha-ryeong, but Peng Ja-ryeong unconsciously excluded them, assuming they couldn’t be the one.
The Yang brothers, who hadn’t even reached Peak Transcendence, were an obvious exclusion. However, his failure to recognize Namgung-woo was not only due to his lower Cultivation Realm but also largely because Namgung-woo’s Aura had changed to be indistinguishable from that of ordinary martial artists.
