im a what!?{Hua Blossom Sect}

chapter 9

Mount Hua was in a state of turmoil.

Seven days had passed since a third-class disciple had suddenly disappeared from Mount Hua. This was a huge thing.

Of course, when Mount Hua collapsed, there were more than just one or two who escaped at night. But this wasn't something common anymore.

Thanks to that, the atmosphere in Mount Hua was horrendous.

"... could he have been in some kind of accident?"

"Accident?"

"It doesn't seem like he is going to come back no matter how long we wait. But, I don't see any reason for him to abandon Mount Hua, right?"

"Right."

Yoon Jong nodded his head.

Jo Gul had said it. Chung Myung had no reason to leave Mount Hua. If he had even the slightest intention of doing so, then he wouldn't have given away that pill.

Did he give away such precious medicine just to leave Mount Hua immediately after?

Rather, maybe he gave them poison and left before it could take effect.

But....

"If Chung Myung doesn't have a reason to abandon the sect, but he still hasn't come back after all this time... doesn't that mean something bad happened to him?"

"Gul."

"Yes, Sahyung."

"No matter how hard I try, I just can't imagine him getting into an accident."

"..."

"Can you imagine it?"

"I can—"

Chung Myung's smiling face flashed through Jo Gul's thoughts. Of course, not a warm smile but a wicked one.

'Ehh. No way.'

Even if he was thrown down a cliff and then an even bigger cliff, Chung Myung would find a way to survive even in hell. It was impossible for him to not come back.

"Then, what happened?"

"It would be nice if it was something which could satisfy the elders. They seem quite angry."

"Yes..."

"Sasuk Un Geom has been summoned to the sect leader's residence again. I'm worried something bad is going to happen."

"Sigh."

Yoon Jong frowned and turned his side.

'What the hell is going on with him?'

Even though he thought everything would be fine, Yoon Jong was strangely worried about Chung Myung,

"Isn't he too arrogant!"

Hyun Jong frowned at the sharp voice.

"It has been seven days and nights already. This is the first time a third-class disciple has been away for such a long time without permission."

"Hmm."

"This isn't something we can overlook. Now, the sect is finally re-establishing its foundation, what will others think!?"

When the head of finance, Hyun Yeong, raised his voice, everyone nodded. Clearly, this wasn't something to overlook.

It was then that Hyun Sang, the head of Martial Arts, spoke.

"Now now, calm down, Sahyung."

"How can I be calm now?"

"Why are you thinking about it like that? What if the child has gotten in some accident? He might need help right now."
