Chapter 58 Extermination (3)
Just as he finished his training at Huashan and was about to descend the mountain.
“Senior Brother Gu Yang, are you heading out this time?”
He was stopped by a young disciple with wide eyes and a small frame.
It seemed the boy had sensed his intention to leave and clung to him.
‘Relying on me isn’t bad, but there’s a saying about too much of a good thing.’
Gu Yang Jie pondered briefly how to shake off Zhao Hun, then realized his worry was unfounded.
Someone else had already set their sights on Zhao Hun.
“Hun, let go.”
“But… Senior Brother Gu Yang.”
“Oh.”
As soon as he sternly urged him, Zhao Hun released the robe he had been holding.
Judging by the sweat stains on the robe, he must have rushed over after training.
‘This isn’t good.’
Gu Yang-jeok looked at Jo Hoon with pity.
At that very moment, a low voice escaped from Yu Jang-myeong’s lips.
“Not only did you slip away while studying and training with the sword, but how dare you grab Senior Brother’s collar?”
“Senior Brother…”
“I won’t listen to your nonsense.”
Yu Jang-myeong’s face grew icy as he spoke, showing no sign of softening no matter how much Jo Hoon whined.
But it couldn’t be helped.
After Ha Jin-ak fell ill, Yu Jang-myeong was the most likely candidate to become the next senior brother. It was practically a foregone conclusion.
On top of that, he was a senior brother renowned for taking sword techniques seriously.
“Do not underestimate the sword of Huashan.”
