Chapter 76 Infinite Assault
Namgung-woo’s breath hitched for a moment, caught off guard by the unprecedented situation.
Until now, no one who had witnessed the Thirteen Lightning Sword Strikes had ever associated it with the Namgung Clan. Dongbang Hwa was the only one who had seen through the origins of the martial arts Namgung-woo practiced. Not even Peng Hu-sang, a Peerless Master and the Clan Head of the Hebei Peng Clan—a prestigious family with a history as deep as the Namgung Clan’s—had managed it.
It was from that moment that Namgung-woo began to lend credence to the hypothesis that Chullok Murim and this world’s Martial Arts were different.
Even if the oral traditions and principles of the martial arts etched into Namgung-woo’s mind applied in this reality, Chullok Murim and this world were distinct. Just because they shared the name ‘Namgung Clan’ didn’t mean their martial arts had to be the same.
But it seemed that assumption was wrong.
Dongbang Hwa’s voice, laced with a mix of shock and bewilderment, rang out.
“It’s been twenty years! The accursed Namgung sword still lives on!”
When the Namgung surname was exposed, Namgung-woo instinctively thought of the Dokgo Clan.
Dokgo Bin, whom he had coincidentally met at Ouye Manor. His questions about the Namgung Clan back then. And the Assassination Order the Dokgo Clan had issued against the Namgung surname.
Namgung-woo had tried his best to avoid getting entangled in this. He had hidden his name, even his age, to steer clear of such a predicament.
