Chapter 239 Side Story 5. The Goblin (5)
After the Blood Sect’s downfall.
The Goblin tore up all the letters sent by Palma and wandered the martial world.
During this time, the Murong Clan, which had established itself, sent a gold ingot as a token of gratitude, but the Goblin merely gave them a blank stare.
The era of the Han people was fading, and the age of the barbarians was dawning.
For them now, the gold ingots held no value whatsoever. Rather than accepting them to settle debts, it was better to leave them be.
“…Hmph.”
The goblin sneered upon seeing the Murong clan’s calligraphy had grown more refined than before.
They might be riding high now, puffing themselves up, but to a goblin who had seen hundreds of years, it was but a fleeting moment.
Flowers in full bloom would inevitably meet their moment of withering.
The true skill of a clan leader lay in delaying that moment. In that regard, Murong Bu was far too impetuous.
Confidence wielded before one’s position was firmly established would only appear as arrogance to others.
‘There’s no need for me to interfere.’
The Blood Sect was reduced to ashes, leaving only records behind. The relationship with the Murong clan faded into nothingness during that process.
Yet the reason for sending the Golden Yuan Treasure was still… a desire to maintain the friendship?
The goblin was deeply disappointed in Murong Bu.
To the Goblin, a man who bowed his head without a fight was less than colorless and odorless.
