Chapter 64 Black Dragon Hall (3)
* * *
Meanwhile, Black Dragon Hall, located at the center of Houguang City, was utterly still.
Not a breath of wind stirred, and only numerous footprints were imprinted on the vast grounds of Black Dragon Hall.
Yet, there were no footprints returning.
Only the hurried footsteps of departure remained, along with the trail of a sword being dragged along the ground.
Baek Un-hwan, the master of the Black Dragon Hall, left it be.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t stop them.
He simply loathed the sight of those wretches and had bellowed for them to get lost.
“To leave without a moment’s hesitation just because a little crisis has come?”
A hollow laugh escaped him.
Normally, someone would have responded to such a meaningless laugh, but now, only silence hit him hard.
Baek Un-hwan rose from the chair finished in ebony, snapping the armrest.
The crack that started there spread across the entire chair.
Crack, crack, crack…
Watching the chair collapse, Baek Un-hwan felt no lingering attachment.
He pondered why not a single thought arose, despite having guarded this seat for over a decade.
The answer was simple.
‘Isn’t this seat meaningless now?’
Letting go of what he had felt bittersweet, yet in some ways, liberating.
Soon, while Baek Un-hwan was managing the game, the sound of a bird reached him from outside.
Tweet, tweet!
The moment he heard it, Baek Un-hwan unleashed his inner energy, snatching the bird with an invisible hand.
Snap.
With a light twist of the bird’s neck, Baek Un-hwan removed the letter tied to its leg.
