When Baek Mu-Gun arrived at Namgung Hyun-Ah’s residence, he found Namgung Hyun-Ah and Dan Seol-Young waiting outside, having heard the news about his return.0

“Welcome back.”0

“I am glad you’re safe.”0

The two greeted Mu-Gun with a smile.0

“How have you two been? You seem to have gotten prettier since the last time we met,” Mu-Gun responded with a smile as well.0

“Let’s head inside for now.”0

The three went into the room. Hyun-Ah then prepared and served Mu-Gun and Seol-Young tea.0

“Thank you. I missed the tea you make for me very much, dear.”0

“Thank you.”0

Mu-Gun and Seol-Young savored the cup of tea that Hyun-Ah personally brewed.0

“I heard about your accomplishments. However, I did not expect you to do something so reckless. Do you know how surprised I was when I heard about it?” Seol-Young, who waited until Mu-Gun finished drinking his tea, brought up the matters that transpired in Jiangxi Province.0

“It was not reckless.”0

“Are you saying that it is not reckless to fight alone in the midst of an enemy camp that had nine Absolute-Realm masters?”0

“It would normally be seen as reckless, I agree. However, I acted under the assumption that I had a good chance of winning. The result is as you have already heard.”0

“Fine, let’s say that you did it because you were confident. Fortunately, everything turned out well. However, as a result of that, not only did the Nine Celestial Demons Sect find out that you are the Thunder God’s successor, but it also made them realize how dangerous your existence is, my dear husband. The Nine Celestial Demons Sect will make getting rid of you the highest priority. You are the Thunder God’s successor, after all. Their nine factions will most likely unite for that purpose. It would not be an exaggeration to say that you are the factor that encouraged the nine factions of the Nine Celestial Demons Sect...0
