Chapter 30
As Danwooseong and Murongbin conversed, the sound of rain continued. Then came thunder, followed by heavy raindrops pounding the roof and eaves.
As Dan Woo-seong looked outside, Murong Bin spoke.
“If you’re not leaving immediately, why not join us for a meal?”
Since we’d been marching relentlessly on just one meal a day, it wasn’t a bad suggestion.
Danwooseong said.
“I eat a lot.”
Moyongbin burst out laughing at the bold request for more rice and replied.
“I’ll prepare plenty.”
After ordering his attendant to prepare the meal, the two men locked eyes again.
Dan Woosung spoke.
“Have you heard any news about Father clashing with the Demon Path or anything like that?”
Murong Bin replied.
“Neither the Black Path nor the Demon Path… I hear it’s been over twenty years since they’ve been quiet. If the Demon Path had risen, it wouldn’t be this peaceful. It’s also strange that they specifically targeted only our father. There’s no particular instance where our family suffered harm either.”
Dan Woo-sung nodded.
He had no personal grudge against the King of Power either. It wasn’t a fight born of hatred; rather, he sensed they were individuals seeking out the strong.
Moyong Bin, who had been speaking, tilted his head slightly and looked at Dan Wooseong with a somewhat serious expression.
“I heard the Sword God entered seclusion for training half a year ago. I wondered what martial arts a senior belonging to the Heaven Beyond Heaven sect could possibly need to refine further to warrant such seclusion… In any case, there’s been no news since.”
