Side Story 47. The Touching Moment Was a Bit Diluted (2) Jin Cheon, who had defeated Murong Gang. He arrogantly pointed his sword toward the Murong Clan and spoke.
“Well, who’s next?”
Jin Cheon, ready to take on anyone. However, no one from the Murong Clan stepped forward. Now that Murong Gang had been defeated, there was no one stronger.
“What? Is no one coming out?”
Jin Cheon provoked them with an indifferent expression, but no one stepped up. In fact, they tried to avoid even making eye contact with him. Jin Cheon spoke to them in a solemn voice.
“So that is your choice.”
No one answered. There were only those whose faces reddened with shame.
And then…
“Fine. Then I’ll just take what’s rightfully mine and be on my way. Moojong.”
“Yes, Brother!”
At Jin Cheon’s call, Peng Moojong appeared. But he did not appear alone. Beside him was Murong Ji-hye, dressed in a red bridal gown.
Seeing her dragged along without knowing what was happening, Jin Cheon said, “Well, you don’t look half bad.”
“What is going on?”
“It’s a hassle to explain…”
Jin Cheon approached Murong Ji-hye, lifted her chin, and said, “The Murong Clan has given up on you, so from now on, you are mine.” Is this the righteous path? No matter how you looked at it, those were words befitting a leader of the unorthodox alliance.
Murong Ji-hye, too, was stunned and said, “Are you saying you’re going to abduct me?”
