Chapter 105
“Hahu Gon is dead?”
“Yes, I’ll relay what I gathered from the survivors. The Black Dragon Sect and the Blue Robe Sect joined forces under one man, and that man killed Lord Ha Hoo with a single strike. After killing him, he reportedly said something like the Jipya Myeong wasn’t much to worry about either.”
Upon receiving the report, Sang Ye-pung, leader of the Cheolsi Dan (Iron Jackal Corps) of the Jipyamyeong, clutched his jaw.
“In one blow…”
Sangyeop-pung Danju pinpointed the core of the report. Though the report contained many details, the only words Sangyeop-pung paid attention to were that the leader had been killed in a single blow.
Sangyeop-pung asked.
“Did the entire White-clad Corps go?”
“Yes.”
“The leader was killed in one blow, yet if any survived, it means only the chiefs were singled out for death. Order all the leaders to assemble here immediately.”
The chiefs to be summoned were the direct-command hundred-man unit led by Sangyeop-pung, the unit leader.
“Understood. Should I tell them to bring troops as well?”
“No, just tell them to come alone.”
“Yes.”

At the gathering of the Daejus, Sangyeop-pung Danju spoke.
“I’ve never fought Xiahou Kun myself, so I ask: among you, is there a great general capable of killing Xiahou Kun with a single strike?”
The grand masters exchanged glances. They were already aware of the situation, as rumors of Ha Hoo-gon’s death had spread during their journey.
