Chapter: 129

“Here, drink up.”

“...Thank you.”

Bakgi drank the medicine and Jongmeng said, “You must be angry, but aren’t you still lucky?”

“Yes?”

“Thanks to the 7th cadet, it wasn’t too late. If it was, then you really would have died.”

“Oh!”

Bakgi realized he had not shown his gratitude to his lifesaver. Bakgi got up and bowed to Chun Yeowun.

“I-I’m sorry. Thank you for saving my life. I really am thankful.”

Chun Yeowun waved it off. “Don’t thank me too much. I don’t want to see anyone dying from that disgusting poison. And... I was looking for the culprit behind it.”

Chun Yeowun’s last words showed that he was furious. It was deep hatred that came from his vengeance.

Bakgi was at a loss for words. He had expected it, but Yeowun’s hatred was beyond his imagination. Jongmeng then opened the curtain of the bed and spoke to Bakgi.

“How about you rest here in the medical room today?”

“Huh?”

“You will heal in seven days, but if you go back to your room, you will be targeted by the poison again.”

Bakgi frowned.

‘He’ll poison me again?’

If it wasn’t for Baek Jongmeng, Bakgi was going to go to Chun Jongsum and unleash his vengeance. But there was a chance that Chun Jongsum would poison him again when he was asleep.

“Dammit!”

It was irritating. Chun Yeowun agreed, “Yeah, stay here like the doctor said. I know how you feel, but you must heal first.”

“Ugh.”

“Leave Chun Jongsum to me.”

“What?”

Bakgi became shocked. Baek Jongmeng hesitated as he asked Yeowun, “What are you trying to do?”

“...I think I need a word with him.”

‘A word?’

However, seeing Yeowun’s eyes filled with hatred didn’t seem like he was just going to exchange some words with the prince. Jongmeng sighed.

“I heard rumors that you’ve become strong, but can you handle ones that use poison?”

Fighting against poison users wasn’t an easy thing, even for experienced martial artists. Even the leaders of the six clans said the Poison Clan was the hardest to deal with.

“Thank you for your concern, but I’ll be okay.”

Yeowun then began walking out and stopped. He then spoke to himself before going out.
