Chapter: 1043

And when Chun Yeowun pointed it out, he was too flustered to answer.

“I am grateful that you brought us news about our former Lord. However, I don’t understand why the North Sea sent one envoy to us expecting that we would trust the words of one person. Besides, this isn’t even a formal request.”

‘... maybe we look easy to him.’

Of course, he knew that such a request would be a bit unreasonable in normal circumstances, but he thought that since he brought the slate along, the Demonic Cult would help him.

“Do you think that any man from the palace can come down to Jianghu alone, without an official request and ask us to dispatch people just because we are loyal to our former lords?”

Baekhyun’s face hardened at those words.

Wooong!

“Huh?”

Baekhyun’s body, which had been lying face down, was raised by force.

Shocked, he tried to rebel against the force which was raising him in the air, but he couldn’t even move.

Chun Yeowun spoke to the man, who was flustered.

“Since I am no idiot, I can make two guesses. You came here by yourself thinking you can represent the North Sea.”

‘!!!’

Gulp!

Baekhyun gulped his saliva with a nervous face.

While Chung Yeowun continued to speak to him.

“Maybe you judged that there is an enemy inside, so you are asking for our help personally, this is not an official request from the North Sea, right?”

Baekhyun couldn’t help but be shocked.

He only talked about the related events to the Dragon Turtle and what happened in the North Sea Ice Palace, but that information was omitted.

‘His intuition isn’t normal.’

Indeed, he was the lord of the forces which moved the Wulin.

He heard the rumors, but he thought that they were exaggerated because of the age of the Lord, however, Baekhyun was wrong.

‘I can’t hide it anymore.’

If he guessed so much, a couple more guesses and the Lord would probably figure out everything.

Baekhyun nodded and apologized.

“I never meant to deceive you. I couldn’t tell you right away because I was scared that the Lord would turn down my request right away.”

From Baekhyun’s point of view, there was nothing else he could do.

The reason he asked for the help from Demonic Cult alone was because it was a matter related to the internal problems of the North Sea Ice Palace.

He couldn’t just reveal such matters to outsiders casually.

“Explain everything.”
