Chapter 237 Side Story 3. Goblin (3)
From the day he made up his mind, the Goblin moved without restraint.
It was a chaotic and turbulent era, which served as a blessing in disguise, granting him ample room to maneuver.
And no wonder—it was a world where it was hard to know where or who was dying.
Two beasts had sickened the world.
The fox, willing to do anything to fill its own coffers, and the dog son, dreaming of fame and fortune, were those two beasts.
Thus, it was an era where even the strongest swordsmen couldn’t survive a week without meeting a violent end. Yet, it was also a generation where martial arts sects flourished across the land.
The Namgung Clan, the Hebei Pang Clan, and the Zhuge Clan, which had hidden away for ages and now revealed itself.
And even the Murong Clan, which had established itself as a powerful force in the distant east, quietly stepped forward. It was the Western Jin Dynasty, seizing the moment when the Han Chinese’s influence was gradually waning.
Among them, the Goblin cultivated ties with the Murong Clan. This was possible because the Goblin’s roots lay in the east.
