“So, what you are saying is that he attacked you guys first then tried to run away and you guys ended up here while trailing behind him.”
“Yes.”
The bandit leader, Cho Heon, sitting politely on the ground, nodded with respect at Wolryung. Understanding the situation, Wolryung turned his head toward Baek Musan.
“Why did you attack them?”
“...”
Musan looked a bit flustered by the question Wolryung asked.
“T-That... I just...”
Wolryung glared at him suspiciously. It looked like this bastard had some ulterior motives. What was it?
“Hey, what’s your name?”
“Uh! I’m Baek Musan. A second generation disciple of the Mount Hua Sect.”
With a respectful bow, Musan introduced himself.
Look at him acting all polite.
It was really pissing off Wolryung.
Weren’t you trying to drag us into trouble earlier just to save your ass? Now you’re acting like some good guy? You sly fox bastard!
‘Wait! Baek Musan?!’
That name rang a bell in Wolryung’s mind as he remembered something from the novel ‘Sword of The Dark Heaven’ all of a sudden.
Baek Musan.
A second generation disciple of the Mount Hua Sect. He will later become the next Plum Blossom Sword Saint and The 10th Leader of the Mount Hua Sect. And he is the person who brings back the previous glory of Mount Hua.
‘But why is he here playing attacking and running with some bandits?’
“...”
Uh! Right!
This bastard was someone who was too obsessed with shining.
So, the picture was becoming clear to Wolryung now. Maybe he got some news of some bandit crawling around here and thought ‘Oh, crap! This is the time to show off what our Mount Hua Sect got by catching some bandits.’
Yep. That’s right. That has to be the case here.
But...
Wolryung, who was confused by something, looked at Musan again and asked.
“Aren’t you a second generation disciple of Mount Hua? You could just beat these bastards with ease. So, why run?”
Indeed. That was really a valid question. Why run when you could just beat them up? They were some third class thugs after all.
“...”
Baek Musan looked a bit embarrassed to answer. So, he stood silently for a moment with a slightly red face before answering.
“I thought they were... The Green Mountain Bandits.”
Uh?
“...”
That was the reason!
“What bullshi...!”
Wolryung was about to say something with a ridiculous face but he stopped midsentence.
“...”
Didn’t he also think earlier that these bastards were the Green Mountain Bandits?
Now that it happened already, he couldn’t complain about it.
Wolryung slowly turned his head toward Cho Heon and gazed at him with cold eyes as if he was really gonna kill him now. It made Cho Heon’s back shiver.
Wolryung started gritting his teeth hard.
‘This bastard... It’s all his fault.’
If this bastard didn’t act like they were the Green Mountain Bandits, then it would’ve never come to this.
‘I want to beat this bastard again.’
Wolryung’s hands were itching to beat Cho Heon again. However...
‘Uh, curse this damn body of mine!’
His body was already exhausted that if he tried to beat Cho Heon up then Wolryung himself might be the one to die first out of exhaustion. And what was worse was that he couldn’t even ask someone to beat this bastard to a pulp.
‘Argh!’
God! Please help me to beat this bastard!
‘Cool. Junho. Cool. Act normal.’
“Huuuuuuu...”
Wolryung took a deep breath and let it out in the next instant to calm himself down. Then he cast a radiant look on Cho Heon’s way, smiling brightly.
“So that was the whole story, huh? Anyway, your base isn’t far from here, is it?”
That made Cho Heon’s forehead bead with cold sweat as he felt slightly uneasy.
Why was he asking about their base all of a sudden? What was he up to now?
But Cho Heon couldn’t just not answer him.
“Ummm... Yes, sir. It’s not far.”
“Is that so? Let’s go then.”
“P-Pardon?”
With a confused face Cho Heon asked Wolryung whose face still seemed as bright as ever.
“Go where?”
“Where else? Of course, to your base. Or...”
Wolryung’s face suddenly became all serious and with wide eyes he gave a cold look at Cho Heon.
“...do you want us to spend the night here? It’s already night time because of some bastards attacking us.”
“...N-No. I didn’t mean it that way. Please come with us, sir.”
Random people bullying mountain bandits? To think I had to see a day like this...
‘Whose face did I see this morning?’
Of course, it was your own face, Cho Heon. Don’t be too sad.
And just like that all of them were going to the Fake Green Mountain Bandits’ base.
But was it really ok?
It’s Wolryung we are talking about here. Taking him to your base just like that?
It’s like calling misfortune upon yourself.
Well, whatever.
Good luck, man.
