Chapter 148 Wan Tong-ja (1)
A few days later.
Upon arriving at Huashan Sect, Gu Yang-jeok and Yu Jang-myeong sought permission from the welcoming disciples and headed straight for Baek Dan-hyeon.
“After arriving at Shaolin Temple, that guy didn’t send a single messenger. What’s going on?”
Baek Dan-hyeon tilted his head, scolding Gu Yang-jeok with a slightly disappointed tone.
But it had been unavoidable.
He had intended to relay what happened at Shaolin Temple via a messenger, but if it were intercepted along the way—who knew what consequences that might bring?
Especially if it involved the former Guardian Monk, Master Wuxing…
Gu Yangjie shook his head as if the thought alone was unbearable.
“The situation was too urgent to send a messenger.”
Yu Zhangming nodded solemnly, seeming to agree with Gu Yangjie’s words.
Seeing the unusual reactions from the two senior brothers, Baek Danhyun inwardly guessed something had happened at Shaolin.
“I hoped Shaolin hadn’t plotted some sinister scheme even as I sent you there…”
Seeing Baek Dan-hyeon’s deep disappointment, Gu Yang-jeok immediately spoke up.
“Shaolin did nothing wrong.”
“……?”
“It seems the monk who sent the letter, Master Musung, was actually a demon cultivator who practiced demonic arts.”
At those words, Baek Dan-hyeon naturally recalled the incident at Cheolgum Mountain and frowned.
Then, he couldn’t contain his shock.
This was even harder to believe than learning Cheolgeum Mountain was a demon cultivator.
