Baek Sang let out a low sigh as he looked at Mount Hua.

‘I feel like the atmosphere is rather restless lately.’

To be more precise, it felt like something was floating around.

Thinking about it, the atmosphere had been strange ever since Chung Myung entered Mount Hua, but it suddenly got worse after Chung Myung, and his party returned from Nanyang recently.

It was clear that the elders were excited about something.

‘Well, he must have done something great.’

None of the second-class disciples would deny the power Chung Myung had. After two years of experience under him, they had no choice but to understand it, even if they didn’t want to know.

Besides, he also received something from Chung Myung.

Quite frankly, how could the days when all they had to eat was grass, and all they had to wear were worn-out uniforms even be compared to now when they wear fine clothes and eat meat until they’re tired?

No matter how hard they trained, even masters couldn’t sustain themselves on dew alone. It couldn’t be denied that these days were a hundred times better than when the sect was suffering from financial difficulties.

But…

Sometimes, he missed the silence of the past Mount Hua.

At that time, Mount Hua had a feeling of purity.

“Maybe I am thinking too—”

Rumble.

Baek Sang looked up at the sudden sound.

“Is it about to rain?”

There was thunder…

Rumble.

‘What?’

Baek Sang, strangely, felt like it came from the side.

Well, it wasn’t out of the ordinary to hear thunder nearby when they lived so high up on the mountain…

Rumble!

Baek Sang turned his head.

No. I don’t think it’s thunder…?

Baek Sang’s eyes opened wide as he looked around for the source of this sound.

“W-what is that?”

Dust was rising from the residence of the sect leader.

It wasn’t just an expression; dust was literally rising.

“T-this…”

Rumble!

As the thunderous sound rang again, the entire residence shook.

‘Uh? I can’t just go there, right?’

It was definitely coming from the residence of the sect leader.

And…

“Achhhh!”

“No. What’s going on!?’

“Please! Please, don’t overdo it! Please!”

Baek Cheon, Yu Yiseol, his juniors, Hyun Jong, and an elder escaped from the residence at the speed of light. Baek Sang was stunned by the unexpected sight.

“… What now?”

He didn’t have much time to think.

Rumble!
