Chapter 28
“What a remarkable outburst. Remarkable indeed. It strikes me as the most memorable thing I’ve ever heard in my life. The words of a man without manners or scruples. But save such talk for when you’ve earned the right to say it.”
The retort finally slipped from Gu Yang-saeng’s lips. Returning to a calm expression, Gu Yang-saeng said.
“Let’s go inside and finish this conversation.”
As Gu Yangsheng headed toward the Galaxy Trading Company, Dan Wuseong called out to him.
“Gu Yangsheng, I never told you to leave. You can’t outrun me with your lightness skills, nor can you escape back to your family estate. Take responsibility for the words you spoke here.”
Gu Yangsheng could have entered the Galaxy Trading Guild to take hostages or carry out a massacre to keep his word.
Gu Yangsheng turned around.
“Didn’t I tell you? The Imperial Council stands behind me. I’ve already made my destination clear—I’m going to invite you. If things escalate, whose loss will it be?”
“You.”
“Why?”
“Because you’re weak.”
Dan Wooseong spread his arms wide to the left and right in front of Gu Yangsaeng. A popping sound echoed from his forearms. Dan Wooseong kept his gaze fixed as he cracked his neck back and forth.
Dan Wooseong smiled.
Gu Yangsheng asked.
“Why are you laughing?”
“I’m no saint. Beating scum like you is my greatest pleasure. A hobby I simply can’t give up, I suppose.”
