Chapter: 1196
Chongjin looked around the rock peak and opened his mouth.
�Is he gone?�
�I�m alone so of course he already left.�
�I asked a useless question.�
�How can you become more sly as you get older?�
�Isn�t that what you learned from you, senior brother?�
�This guy!�
�Oh, I�m disappointed.�
�What do you mean?�
Il-gum glared at Chongjin. Despite being the target of those ferocious eyes, Chongin only replied calmly,
�That sake. Why did you give him everything even though I begged for just one sip?�
�Tsk! You won�t feel the effect even if you drink it, so why would I give it to you? I gave it to him because it was worth giving. A treasure has its own owner. You weren�t it, while he deserves it. That�s all.�

�By the way, is this child going to be my disciple?�
Chongjin looked at Soma in his arms.
Il-gum snorted.
�Hong! What do you mean disciple? If you do that, there�ll be a big fuss because of the unusual recruitment. Regardless of the Wudang sect, you�re just teaching him a few tricks, so don�t be greedy.�
Chongjin smiled bitterly.
One of the problems of a sect with a long history like the Wudang sect is that it is difficult to expect a big change.
Numerous customs and traditions have solidified and built a resilience in itself.
Because of that, it was difficult even for a sect leader such as Chongjin to make unconventional decisions.
