Chapter 236 Side Story 2. Goblin (2)
The next day.
The Goblin began climbing Mount Jongnam, his hat pulled down tightly over his eyes.
“……”
But the Goblin’s complexion was different from usual.
His unusually neat attire was one thing, but his eyes were clear because he hadn’t touched a drop of alcohol.
Anyone who knew the goblin’s true nature would have been utterly shocked.
A man who would go berserk if he went a single day without getting drunk, properly dressed in formal attire!
The goblin couldn’t help but sneer, then gazed at the sunrise over Mount Jongnam.
The fiercely blazing sunlight scorched the mountain’s edge.
The growth of a new day began with the dew clinging to the leaves.
Zzzzt.
At the sound of a flying insect’s cry, the goblin waved his hand as if annoyed.
For just a moment, he closed and opened his eyes.
A bearded sage stood within the newly opened view.
“Where might you be from, noble stranger?”
“……Well.”
The goblin tilted his head and chuckled softly. It was an encounter reminiscent of the first time he had met Yeo Dong-bin.
Yet, no overwhelming power emanated from him. Only a presence as natural and serene as the environment itself hinted at his extraordinary nature.
Heavenly Dullness.
Ye Dong-bin called his sword Heavenly Dullness. As he had said, the Heavenly Dullness Sword Technique was indeed a sword art equal to the heavens.
But the Taoist before him seemed far removed from such grandiosity.
