Chapter 35
“The Martial Alliance has sent a summons.”
Dan Woo-sung took the letter Lee Hwa-eon handed him and read it. It had been over ten days since the dissolution of the Red Eagle Alliance.
The letter’s content was simple.
The Imperial Council demanded that Dan Woo-sung, who was at the center of the situation, personally attend the Martial Arts Alliance meeting because they needed direct witnesses regarding Gu Yang-saeng.
Li Hua Yan asked with a worried expression.
“Hmm, I suppose I must go?”
Dan Woo-sung replied.
“It’s right for me to go. They must be having trouble reaching a verdict. Being a tripartite organization, the Imperial Council would face even greater difficulty. But I won’t go now.”
“But it’s the Martial Arts Alliance. Is that acceptable?”
“Send a reply first. Say that a threatening incident has occurred at the caravan and you cannot leave your post. Especially if the Gu family comes in force, the caravan’s forces will struggle to counter them. If they insist I must attend, tell them to send the top-tier martial artists of the Martial Alliance here. Then convey that I can attend while the top-tier martial artists guard the caravan.”
Only then did Yi Hwa-eon’s expression brighten.
Having a First-Class Martial Artist present wouldn’t block every master in the martial world. But a First-Class Martial Artist held symbolic meaning. Touching a guild member would mean declaring hostility against the Martial Alliance.
