Chapter: 1077
Since it was nighttime, they couldn�t see the full appearance of the sect in detail, but thanks to the torches and moonlight placed here and there, they were able to at least distinguish the outline.
The place where Woo Pyeong led the group was a huge temple that seemed to have been built recently. The temple was called Qingliu Temple. It was built solely for the guests who would attend the birthday party.
Qingliu Temple was large and spacious enough to accommodate hundreds of guests at the same time. It was so vast that those who did not know of its internal layout would get lost.
Woo Pyeong gave the most isolated area in Qingliu Temple to Wu Jang-rak and his party.
The monks from the Shaolin Temple immediately went to their own lodgings. They wanted to protect the Buddhist scriptures themselves.
It was originally the mercenaries� job to protect the Buddhist scriptures. But now that the Shaolin Temple monks took over their roles, they had nothing to do.
Ko Il-pae and Seol Hajin thought it was better.
Now that things have led to this point, they can now terminate their contract with Wu Jang-rak and relax. They thought it would be better for them to just enjoy the birthday event in the Wudang sect.
So they went ahead and asked Wu Jang-rak to terminate their contract. Wu Jang-rak also easily agreed to their proposal since it was valid and reasonable.
The contract of the mercenaries was terminated, and they were paid their original remuneration.
Ko Il-pae had asked for an amount less than what was written in the contract since their job ended early, but Wu Jang-rak gave everything he had originally promised.
After� Wu Jang-rak�s unexpected consideration, the mercenaries went into their own dwelling.
Seol Hajin waved the pouch containing the money to Pyo-wol and said,
�What do you think? Would you like to go to Dazhou with me? Don�t you think you can live with me for a while?�
�Leave it. That�s not even enough.�
�Tch! You�re being expensive.�
Seol Hajin wrinkled her nose at Pyo-wol�s refusal. But it wasn�t a bad look.
In the first place, she did not even think that Pyo-wol would accept her offer. It�s just a little bit sad that her relationship with Pyo-wol will end like this.�
As soon as the Wudang sect event was over, she planned to return to Dazhou, where the Mercenary Guild was located.�
After they parted ways, she wasn�t sure when she would meet Pyo-wol again. If it was another man, there was a chance that he would come back feeling sorry for her, but Pyo-wol had little chance of doing that.
Pyo-wol�s not the type to feel sorry for a woman nor was he the type to have lingering feelings.�
To Pyo-wol, she was just a passing relationship.
Parting here at Wudang Mountain was likely to be their last meeting.
Seol Hajin stared at Pyo-wol for a while before speaking.
�If you happen to pass by Dazhou in the future, come visit me at the Mercenary Guild. You�re always welcome.�
�Okay.�
�Anyway, it�s been fun being with you.�
Seol Hajin waved to Pyo-wol and went into her room.
Pyo-wol looked towards the direction of her room for a while and then looked up at the sky.
