Chapter 165
The Overlord, the man who stands at the highest position
Kwang-shin, having received Dan Woo-sung’s gift, smiled.
Because on the day he first met Danwooseong, Gwangshin had torn the leader of the Gold and Silver Assassins to death in that manner.
Gwang-shin nodded toward Danwooseong and said.
“I received the gift well.”
He even mimicked catching the pouring blood on his face—how could one not be astonished?
It meant that even while facing the masters of the Swordless Blade, the junior of the Sword King had been keeping a close eye on his own appearance.
To others, Danwooseong’s actions were incomprehensible, so this gift was solely for Gwangshin. Ultimately, it could be said that Cheolmyeongho and Danwooseong each offered their own unique consolation to their master in their own way.
It was as if he were saying this:
You are not mad.
The situation was simply that way.
Cheol Myeong-ho sent his tribute to the master with laughter, while Dan Woo-seong did so in a cruel manner. Watching this, the Master of the Ten Thousand Horses Palace chuckled and remarked.
“That’s cruel.”
Contrary to his words, he showed no surprise at all.
The reason was obvious.
The Demon Palace Lord believed his lightness kung fu was the best in the land. He even thought he could outrun that formidable Demon Lord in that one skill alone.
Believing he could flee at any moment and go anywhere, he couldn’t help but act with ease.
Dan Woo-sung returned to his seat with a calm expression.
