Chapter 112
Lord Kwon, Carry Me
Danwooseong and Baekyak walked hand in hand along the mountain path. The day was clear and bright. He had finished discussing matters concerning the Jipyamyeong with Jeonbirang, and entrusted the continued surveillance and reporting of the Jipyamyeong’s activities to Mokryongdang Leader Ho Taejun and Cheonguidang Leader Do Jinkwang.
He planned to contact the Martial Arts Alliance next and send an inspection team to the Southern Black Path.
Since the Jipyameng had pledged unconditional obedience to the Mingwang’s will, they could no longer be hostile toward the Martial Arts Alliance.
Dan Woosung intended to personally oversee the balance and coordination between the two organizations. It could be said that the Martial Arts Alliance was held in check by the formidable figure of Yoo Jeonghong, while the Hidden Blade Alliance was under the watchful, almost menacing gaze of the rugged Dan Woosung.
Thus, Dan Woosung and Baek Yak, setting out on the road once more, couldn’t help but feel a rare lightness in their hearts.
Above all, Dan Woo-sung felt a renewed gratitude toward Baek Yak.
Since descending to the Southern Black Path, Baek Yak hadn’t particularly exerted himself or run wild like Dan Wooseong.
Most of the time, he simply practiced qigong or stayed quietly by Danwooseong’s side. But just having Baekyak nearby was a great help to Danwooseong. Even if something more dangerous had happened, he could have gotten through it thanks to Baekyak. Because Baekyak showed, mostly through quiet silence, that he trusted Danwooseong no matter what he did. That trust was building into mutual confidence.
