Chapter 37
Dan Woo-sung waited silently until Baek Han-kyung calmed down before asking about the man across from them.
“…Could it be that he came here because he’s connected to Gu Yangsheng? He’s affiliated with the Emperor’s Association and is the young master of the So family.”
Baek Han-gyeong replied.
“I don’t know him. The Imperial Association has been expanding constantly lately. I wouldn’t know which family’s young master he is. He’s not here because of Gu Yangsheng; he’s probably gathered here for the Dragon Phoenix Grand Banquet. Sometimes people arrive early to build connections. It’s not common for late-stage cultivators to gather in one place like this.”
“Ah, the Dragon-Phoenix Grand Gathering.”
Dan Woo-sung chuckled softly.
Baek Han-kyung suddenly glanced at the building across the street. Fortunately, the fallen leaves were scattered about. Still, as if to be cautious, he lowered his voice and said,
“They might have come for the Dragon-Phoenix Grand Assembly. Or perhaps just to see the phoenix.”
Dragon referred to the male late-stage index, while phoenix meant the female late-stage index. He was implying they might have come just to see the beauties.
Dan Woo-sung smiled and said.
“In any case, it’s clear the Martial Alliance and the Emperor’s Association are not on good terms.”
“Well, it’s nothing new.”
I had heard about the Dragon-Phoenix Grand Assembly once from Gu Yangsheng. After Gu Yangsheng joined the Emperor’s Assembly, he had suggested to Dan Woosung that the Dragon-Phoenix Grand Assembly participate.
