Chapter: 1763
Tarha�s eyes already gleamed with malice.
The lengths the members of their sect had gone to in search of the Demonic Soul Blade were beyond measure.
They had killed and tortured every smuggler, trader, and bandit in the West before they�d learned that Demonic Soul Blade had been taken out of their territory, and that the ship carrying the blade had departed for somewhere in the Central Plains.
At that time, dozens of ships had left the Western Region to go to the Central Plains. They had meticulously confirmed the routes of all of those ships, and in the end, the only one remaining was a ship that came near Haimen.�
However, upon arrival and confirmation to this place, they found out that there was no such ship. That�s why Tarha was at a loss. But to think he would hear the name, Phantom Fleet, here in this distant land.�
�Where could they be hiding? I�ll go and check myself.�
Tarha was ready to rush in immediately.
�Calm down.�
�How could I calm down?! It took us almost a year to come all the way here. A whole year�!�
�I know. I was there with you. But acting like this would only violate the principles of the Taoist tradition. Besides, there�s no guarantee that the Phantom Fleet is indeed the culprit.� We need to find out more to be sure.�
�Well��
Yul Ayeon�s calm words left Tarha with no choice but to extinguish his anger.
It was then.
�Ack!�
Suddenly, someone screamed from the outside.
The first person to react was none other than Tae Musang.
�Geomyeon!�
Tae Musang quickly got up from his seat and rushed outside.
There was no way he couldn�t recognize the voice he had known since childhood. Although it was only a short scream, Geomyeon�s voice was unmistakable.
Tae Musang, who had rushed out of the inn, looked around and spotted Geomyeon leaning against a wall.
�Geomyeon!�
He hurriedly ran towards Geomyeon.
�Brother?�
�What happened, are you okay?�
�Argh!�
Geomyeon�s face suddenly contorted in pain.
Tae Musang quickly examined Geomyeon�s entire body and found the stab wound on his shoulder. Blood was pouring from the deep gash on his shoulder.
Tae Musang quickly wrapped a cloth around Geomyeon�s wound.
�Damn it!�
�There were� some suspicious individuals lurking and waiting for an opportunity.� JrNovels.com
