Chapter: 1918
The power of the three factions was remarkable enough to warrant such attention. But in just two days, two of the three factions had been destroyed.
The reputation of the Sword Blossom Pavilion plummeted, while Cheolsan manor had lost its leader and drifted away.
And it was all because of one person.�
Pyo-wol.
A man who appeared in Lake Tai one day and out of nowhere.
Since his arrival, the once solid order of Lake Tai crumbled.�
Even the Shadowless Order in Kunshan, that had been at odds with the Nanjing sect, ended up being humiliated after their attempt of subduing Pyo-wol.�
Bok Seong-wan couldn�t find it in him to comprehend the series of events.�
Had he known that the three sects would be so easily defeated, then Bok Seong-wan would not have gone to such lengths and effort in maintaining relations with them.�
The fact that the entire martial world of Lake Tai and Jiangsu Province was shaken to the core because of a single person, caused Bok Seong-wan to be greatly conflicted.�
�Is this a crisis? Or an opportunity?�
The three sects were either collapsing or faltering.
This was the perfect opportunity for the Changjiang Fortress to expand its influence. There was no telling when such an opportunity would arise again, once the collapsed or faltering factions manage to recover from their condition.�
However, the only reason Bok Seong-wan was hesitating in making a move was that Pyo-wol had yet to leave Lake Tai.�
�The heavens would sometimes send beings that people can�t understand with their common sense. It�s rare to see good things come out of getting involved with such individuals.�
With his appearance alone, Bok Seong-wan might look like the type who would charge forward without thinking. But in truth, Bok Seong-wan was as cunning and deep-minded as a fox.�
He was the type that was most cautious when making a move. He rarely moves based on emotions.�
�What should I do?�
He continued to ponder, but no decisive answer came to mind.
In the end, he decided to postpone making a judgment.
It was then.
�Lord Bok!�
One of Bok Seong-wan�s subordinates rushed over.
�What�s wrong?�
�Something terrible has happened!�
�Terrible?�
�Yes! The patrol boat that went out to the outskirts of Lake Tai has sunk!�
�What?�
Bok Seong-wan�s eyes widened in surprise.
There was only one situation where a boat would sink in the calm waters of Lake Tai. JrNovels.com
