Trash of the Count's Family

The Harmony and Silence Pavilion.

This was the building where Chief Advisor Zhuge Mi Ryeo resided and completed her duties. People were currently gathered in the Harmony and Silence Pavilion’s secret underground area.

These people were the representatives of the Orthodox faction for the negotiations with the Demon Cult.

As a result, Cale was not here.

Cale was not officially a part of the Orthodox faction.

“Hoho, my goodness. I never expected to see such a day in my life.”

The person laughing was the Wudang Sect’s daoshi Baek San.

He was a collateral relative of the leader of the Wudang Sect and a martial sibling who trained under the same master.

“Mm.”

The person who groaned but was sitting up straight was Elder Ho Song Yi of the Beggars’ Gang.

The Beggars’ Gang and the Wudang Sect…

These two factions were the ones within the Nine Sects One Gang who said that conversation and cooperation with the Demon Cult was necessary.

Daoshi Baek San looked at someone and started speaking.

“I had no idea someone from the Namgung Clan would be here?”

He was smiling but a blade was hidden within his smile.

“…….”

The person who received Baek San’s gaze was Namgung Ma Hee, patriarch Namgung Ma Hyuk’s younger sister who currently resided in the Martial Arts Alliance.

She spoke with a stoic gaze as she had received information regarding this matter in advance.

“Our Namgung Clan moves according to the will of young master Kim-nim.”

She stopped talking after saying that.

Her face was saying that there was nothing else to say.

“Groan.”

Next to her was the Hebei Peng Clan’s Peng Yu, who was standing there looking frustrated.

The Hebei Peng Clan and the Namgung Clan were close, which was why, despite not hearing the reason behind it, they also agreed when the Namgung Clan suddenly agreed to the Nine Sects One Gang’s push for negotiating with the Demon Cult.

“Ha!”

Daoshi Baek San scoffed in disbelief at Namgung Ma Hee’s comment while Elder Ho just sat straight and let everything go in one ear and out the other.

‘As Namgung Ma Hee mentioned, we just have to follow young master Kim around.’

The answer would be in the path traveled by Young master Kim, the path to peace.

Although the Beggars’ Gang’s Gang Leader had given him a secret mission to gather information about young master Kim on this trip…

‘That is beyond my abilities. I just have to do grunt work.’

He would ignore that secret mission and just conform to whatever young master Kim said.

“…I am curious to know about this young master Kim person.”

Baek San said that and looked around but nobody said anything. He had no choice but to look at his superior.

“Chief Advisor. You have no intention of answering my question?”

“You will naturally find out once you arrive in Kunlun.”

Baek San’s eyebrow slightly rose at her response.

The Harmony and Silence Pavilion. Baek San nonchalantly asked after hearing the proclamation that implied that she could not say it even in this stealthy location reserved for the Chief Advisor.

“Is there a need to be cautious with what we say within the Martial Arts Alliance?”

“Yes sir.”

Baek San crossed his arms and leaned against the chair at her immediate response.

“Then I will wait a little longer.”

Despite grumbling and being very sharp with his words, Baek San did not like fights. That was why he was the type who was extremely patient and preferred stability.

Zhuge Mi Ryeo started to speak.

“Let us reorganize everything about this and start the meeting.”

The other rooms of the Harmony and Silence Pavilion except this one had the members who would head to the Demon Cult being guided around.

“The Martial Arts Alliance has decided to move the Justice Corps, Chivalry Corps as well as some of the top executives and a portion of other departments.”

“Mm.”

Peng Yu groaned. Baek San also had a stiff expression on his face as he asked.

“Isn’t that too many people?”
