Chapter 687

Smooth and smooth.

“...”

It was generally a good feeling to see a bright face.

Of course, some tactless people didn’t understand the mood and ruined it by laughing when they shouldn’t. But at least for now, no one could see that it was such a situation.

However....

‘Can a person look this gentle? I thought he was the Buddha himself...’

‘He looks more round.’

It shouldn’t have been a strange thing.

Hae Yeon, one of the scariest people in the world when using martial arts, could look this round and cute.

His once exhausted and caved-in face had gained weight, turning much brighter, which made those who watched him happy.

There was just one thing that bothered him a little...

Jo Gul said with an extremely shocked face.

“But even though he is a monk, doesn’t it mean that people can look this kind and soft because they had meat....”

“Uh!”

“Shh!”

“Shut that mouth!”

Jo Gul pointed at the words that came from around.

“No... if he had meat alone, I wouldn’t have spoken. But yesterday at the alcohol table, he even drank all the alcohol in Mount Hua by himself.”

“...”

“Can a monk do that? He still gets called a monk, so how can he?”

“Can you be called a Taoist then?”

“... if you put it like that, then I have nothing more to say.”

Jo Gul touched his stomach and frowned.

“I am saying it because it is odd because it is strange. I feel dizzy from the alcohol I had yesterday.”

“... actually, I do too.”

“One hit, and I will puke it all out.”

“Ughh...”

The disciples of Mount Hua, whose faces had turned dark and dead, looked lost at the people of other sects who were moving to and from their training hall.

“How did it end up that all these sects gathered together...”

Not just Hae Yeon, but they were all strange, too.

Mount Hua’s disciples were also confident in their ability to drink alcohol. Wasn’t Mount Hua, where Chung Myung had turned drinking into a character trait due to his own influence on them?

But the problem was that the other sects that drank against Mount Hua didn’t take it easy either.

First, the Tang family.

The Tang family was a sect that dealt with poison and assassination. Therefore, it was right for them to learn how to expel toxins from their bodies. It was unlikely that these people, who had engaged in the dangerous task of creating poison from a young age, would get drunk on a little alcohol.

And then came the Nanman Beast Palace.

Those people didn’t even need a reason. Anyone who saw the warriors from that place would think, “Ah, those people probably drink cartons of alcohol and eat pounds of meat as sides.”

But what shocked the Mount Hua disciples even more wasn’t those two sects.

Looking at those two sects alone, they were the warriors who would do that, but it was the warriors of the North Sea Ice Palace who surpassed them.

-This is alcohol?

-In the North Sea, even a 3-year-old kid wouldn’t drink such weak alcohol!

-Bring us alcohol, not water!

“... truly amazing.”

“Is soy sauce made of iron then...?”

“I heard that in colder areas, the more alcohol they drink, the warmer their bodies are, but I didn’t think they would be this bad...”

In front of the Ice Palace, both the Tang family and Nanman Beast Palace warriors raised their hands in surrender.

They already looked cold and indifferent, but their faces didn’t change even after drinking the strongest alcohol, which made others feel sick of them.

“If you think about it, didn’t Palace Lord Seol also have a strong drink?”

“... I thought so, too. I saw him yesterday, and he was going against the Beast Palace Lord.”

“Well, he does look like an innocent child...”

“Uhuh! Palace Lord! Call him like that.”

“...tsk. Until recently, he was just a younger brother.”

Jo Gul licked his lips with regret. Then he frowned and mumbled again.

“Anyway, uh... my stomach doesn’t feel good.”

Mount Hua’s disciples had to drink twice as much as the other sects.

As the drinking intensified, the Tang family, the Beast Palace, and the North Sea Ice Palace grew closer and drank heavily together. However, initially, they had no choice but to find many of the Mount Hua people they were familiar with.

Baek Cheon also constantly received and refilled his glass with alcohol, and by the end, he lost consciousness.

“So, what are the others up to?”

Normally, there were several people here who would have scolded him, but no one had the luxury of doing it. This isn’t to say that he screamed wrongly, but it felt like something else would happen.

Tang Gunak had a lost face.

“Alliance leader... say something.”

Hyun Jong, who was looking at the disciples from the podium, spoke weakly. But he couldn’t say anything, so he covered his mouth with his hand and turned back, crouching his back like a shrimp.

Tang Gunak mumbled quietly.

“... I am sorry. I cannot do anything...”

At that, Meng So shook his head, too.

“Speak my ass... let’s just go home.”

“... the disciples’ condition doesn’t seem that good, why not rest for another day....”

“If I smell the alcohol which is coming from around, even a sane man would get drunk....”

... everyone nodded at the words of Meng So.

Meng So continued with a pale look.

“Just because we go now doesn’t mean we will not see each other again, and we will see each other again soon, so let us not waste time now.”

Tang Gunak nodded, and he immediately added.

“Don’t forget about what we talked about yesterday. I will proceed with the matter you mentioned in consultation with Mount Hua Sect.”

“I believe so... euh.... Ahh, I believe.”

Thud.

“Oh my! So-Baekkkk!”

“P-Palace Lord! Come to your senses now!”

“Soso! Where are you?”

At that time, Seol So-Baek finally lost his strength and collapsed. As the noise began to rise, Hyun Jong took advantage of the chance to put his head behind the podium and gag a bit.

Baek Cheon grinned as he looked at the scene.

“That shithole.”

Kuak! Kakakak!

No. The real shithole was one of you people! Why on earth would they bring dogs into Mount Hua! Dogs!

So messy, troublesome, chaos, those wayward dogs....

No matter what words were used, it felt like everything fit this situation well.

Many people took advantage of the tragedy unfolding on the podium to sit down. In Baek Cheon’s mind, Heavenly Friends Alliance’s future felt dark.

After much confusion and mess, the three sects that visited Mount Hua began to pass through the gate. Where did they step in with such confidence? I was now feeling like an extremely despair filled road.

“Well then, good time everyone! I will meet you again!”

“Go back safely!”

“May the luck be with you!”

“Travel safely!”

They didn’t forget to say nice words. But those warm words, warm expressions, and internal feelings were entirely different.

‘Never piss in Mount hua again.’

‘I will not come next time. I have to send others.’

‘If possible, I won’t come here.’

‘This is going to be a hard time.’

Everyone had a very work-like smile and made promises in a very odd way. Tang Gunak and Meng So, who were leading the way, waved their hands, and Seol So-Baek, who was being carried down by the cart of Mount Hua, raised his shaking hands, unable to even raise his head.

Baek Cheon mumbled as he watched them go down slowly.

“But... can everyone go down Mount Hua with such a body?”

“...”

“I need to climb down the cliff.”

Jo Gul, Yoon Jong, and Yu Yiseol looked at the three sects that were leaving with a subtle look.

“... they might die?”

“Right?”

Baek Cheon nodded slightly and turned his head.

“Let’s go in.”

“...”

“First, take the sect leader to his residence. Gul, go and bring some honey water, too.”

“... yes.”

Following Baek Cheon’s command, Jo Gul ran, and some others hurriedly moved to support Hyun Jong. Baek Cheon sighed.

‘This is quite an event...’

Kikikik!

“Ah, they left a dog behind! Ah, fuck! I am going insane with these people!”

Baek Cheon’s screams echoed around Mount Hua.

Whether or not the world changed after the alliance, Mount Hua was still Mount Hua.
