Chapter: 1269
Of course, Chun Yeowun had no intention of letting Dan Jucheon gather supporters.
Until he could trust him.
Still, in order to save Dan Jucheon’s face, around a hundred of his supporters were allowed to follow him.
However, there were two other people besides the ones from the Ice Palace.
[Miss. What are we supposed to do?]
It was Moyong Yuu, son of Moyong Kang, who sent the telepathic message in an anxious tone.
The person he sent it to was Jegal Sohi, the second head of the Yulin contingent, who was standing next to him.
Why were they staying in the palace instead of returning back with the Yulin troops, which left the Ice Palace three days ago?
[Don’t worry too much. Lord Moyong. As long as we are being considered hostages, no one will harm us too easily.]
[... that cold-blooded person?]
Moyong Yuu shuddered.
They were being held as hostages of the Yulin while letting the rest of the contingent leave.
At first, Chun Yeowun tried to deal with those who tried to take the core of the dragon, but then he decided that clashing with the Yulin wouldn’t do any good and decided to take hostages from them.
‘Because the Blade God Six Martial clan still has to be dealt with.’
Moyong Kang was humiliated, yet he accepted it.
To save his troops.
Fortunately, Chun Yeowun said that he would decide whether to release the hostages or not after discussing it with the Great Leader of the Forces of Justice.
[Miss Jegal. I think that we should escape when the chance comes. We don’t know when that cold-blooded monster will change his mind and decide to cut our arms off or kill us!]
With all that happened, Moyong Yuu was extremely scared of Chun Yeowun.
Even in their first meeting, he knew that Chun Yeowun was stronger than him, but now he was plain terrified.
[... do you think you can escape?]
Jegal Sohi responded with a question.
She understood Moyong Yuu’s feelings, but how could they escape from the monster’s hand?
[Do not give up! Miss Jegal! It’s said that even when the sky falls, there will be an opening for us to rise, but when an opportunity arises, should we at least try...]
“Lord Moyong,”
“Eik!”
Even before he could complete it, someone had called for Moyong Yuu.
The one who approached him was Baekgi, one of the Six Swords, who stood with a calm face.
Moyong Yuu, who was trying to come up with plans to escape, stuttered.
“Wh-what is it?”
