The Last Transcendent of the Black Lotus Union: Sonam@@novelbin@@

Sonam, the last remaining transcendent warrior of the Black Lotus Union, realized the gravity of the situation.

At some point, communication with the other two transcendents had been severed. Their lives were likely extinguished as well.

Though he had anticipated reinforcements from the righteous sects, their timing was far swifter than expected.

“It must be the Namgung Clan.”

Before coming to Hangzhou, he had heard that the Namgung Clan didn’t have many masters remaining.

He never imagined that those few would respond so quickly, nor that his comrades would fall in such a short time.

How could they be taken down so effortlessly, without even realizing it?

“I have to gamble.”

The ship they arrived on had either been destroyed or commandeered. The sea route was no longer an option.

Crossing through the territory of the righteous sects to return to the Black Lotus Union was nearly impossible. Though not entirely unfeasible, the odds of escaping safely were abysmal.

“Using hostages is the only viable option.”

Yeo Woon-jeok of the Sea Wall Sect would likely hesitate due to the reinforcements. Those reinforcements were almost certainly from the Namgung Clan.

Judging by their tendencies, if he took civilians as hostages, they wouldn’t attack recklessly.

“They’re fools obsessed with appearances.”

The answer was clear: take hostages and demand a ship.

A transcendent wreaking havoc in the middle of the city would cause catastrophic damage, so there was a decent chance they’d let him go.

Sonam immediately put his plan into action.

"Prepare a ship immediately! If you let us leave peacefully, I promise not to harm them!"

Sonam anxiously watched the situation unfold. What would their response be? His eyes darted around, and then he noticed the encirclement parting.

A figure strode through the newly opened path, unhurried and indifferent.
