Chapter 166
With the leader and members buried in his heart
Leader Yoo Jeong-hong had never been caught wearing the Dragon-Lion Armor under normal circumstances. But now, his opponent was unleashing the rare Flaming Demon Technique, leaving him no choice.
Master Hwa asked, his expression stunned.
“At your age, wearing armor? Aren’t you ashamed?”
It was beyond Master Hua’s comprehension. After all, Yu Zhenghong was regarded as a master second only to the Three Divine Stars in terms of skill.
Yoo Jeong-hong nodded.
“I’m not exactly ashamed.”
“Why?”
“Because the disciples are waiting for my return.”
Master Hwa shook his head with a sigh.
“How unfortunate. Even wearing that armor, you’ll still return as a corpse in the end.”
After all, the hands and face it fails to protect will simply be burned.
Yoo Jeong-hong nodded.
“It won’t be easy for either of us.”
Yoo Jeong-hong had conserved his inner energy, sparing it and sparing it again. He had hoarded it like a miser, forgetting the dignity of the Martial Arts Alliance Leader. He had used it as sparingly as the monthly stipend he received as the Alliance Leader.
If the contest among martial artists were judged solely by the depth of their inner strength, Yoo Jeong-hong would have already lost.
But for Yoo Jeong-hong, a contest was not about that.
Moreover, this mindset didn’t apply solely to combat.
Yoo Jeong-hong’s life was about enduring while always maintaining an upright heart. Even as the leader, he never slept in late, nor did he ever eat better meals than others. It was understandable why the demonic gentleman didn’t call him a hero. He was the leader, yet he strove to live as ordinarily as possible.
