Chapter 96
As the Western Wind Caravan set out again, Dan Wuseong mounted his horse and took the lead. Though three days remained until the Martial Alliance, no significant incidents occurred. Aside from Cheol Myeongho continuing to wield his Heaven-Shattering Spear from the rear and running errands for Gwangshin, it was a quiet journey.
From atop his horse, Dan Wooseong recalled the remaining adversaries in the White Path…
Suddenly, as if some premonition had awakened within him, a thought struck him. He sensed that if the Western Wind Caravan’s procession to the Martial Alliance remained safe until the end, the calamity would likely unfold at the Emperor’s Assembly.
It didn’t seem likely that the Mado would go to such lengths to target the Murong or Seo families.
If he were to target anyone, it could only be the heir apparent of the Nangong family.
If that were to happen, could the disciple handle it?
Dan Woo-sung recalled the Twelve Demon Swords and the two leaders he had fought in his past life, and mentally substituted the disciple for himself.
The apprentice would also be doomed to defeat.
Even if he could fight longer than the Sword King, the outcome would be the same.
Especially since the apprentice, unlike the Sword Master, wasn’t the type to flee. Danwooseong sensed he would have been cut down by the Sword of the Immortal and died right there.
While Dan Wooseong was making these imaginings and predictions, the disciple was already dead. The reason Dan Wooseong could accurately predict the situation was because he understood his enemies and knew the nature of the masters in the martial world.
