“Even I cannot handle that monstrous fellow, so how can those youngsters possibly win?”“Pardon?”Stunned by the shocking words uttered by Eunuch Beom Jeung from the Western Depot, Scholar Jang Chan from the Hanlin Academy wore an expression of disbelief.Although he had not been assisting Prince Gyeongjin for very long, from what he had heard, Eunuch Beom Jeung was known to be an exceptional master, ranking among the top five of the eunuchs in the Eastern and Western Depots who had cultivated martial arts.While he couldn’t accurately understand their terminology, he had heard that Eunuch Beom’s internal energy had reached the pinnacle-stage of Transcendent Realm, and even among martial artists, there were not many masters who could rival him.Yet, for someone with such outstanding martial prowess to say that he couldn’t defeat that opponent, what on earth did he mean?Moreover, the late-stage disciples were merely young individuals around their early twenties, weren’t they?“Eunuch

Early morning.The Embroidered Uniform Guard Training Barracks’ Head Instructor’s office.A middle-aged man in his late forties with a stern face and a scar on his chin bid farewell to a man in a blue officer’s uniform who was leaving the office, his hands clasped together in a polite gesture.As the man left, the middle-aged man plopped down into the chair behind the office desk.Then, he let out a deep sigh.‘Hoo. I can’t stomach this nonsense anymore.’The middle-aged man’s name was Seok Jeonwoong.He was the Head Instructor in charge of educating the Embroidered Uniform Guard trainees and also served as the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.As Seok Jeonwoong recalled the officer who had just come and gone, he couldn’t help but snort.‘It’s truly a predicament on how to handle this.’The officer who had just visited was a man named Jang Chan, who held the 6th rank government post of Reader at the Hanlin Academy.The reason for his visit was to make a request regarding the

On the way back to the inn,The attitudes of Gan-yang and Ok-gi from the advance party changed.Originally, they were already wary of the rear party, but after witnessing Mok Gyeong-un’s true colors as he dealt with even Lady Seo, one of the absolute rulers of this nation, they treated him completely like a superior.In fact, what was most deeply imprinted in their minds was the image of the traitorous Yoo-bong, who had been split in half and turned into a cold corpse.‘Let’s not provoke him.’‘Who knows what might happen if we get on his bad side.’Even Ok-gi, who had once vowed to take revenge, had long since abandoned such thoughts.He just hoped to avoid irritating Mok Gyeong-un until the mission was completed.As they were heading towards the inn, Mok Gyeong-un spoke to them at a fork in the road.“I have a brief errand to run, so you all go ahead first.”“My lord, I will escort you,” Seop Chun stepped forward to guard Mok Gyeong-un.But Mok Gyeong-un shook his head.“It’s nothin

“From today onward, this child is my formal disciple and a new member of our clan. Treat him like your own younger brother.”‘!?’Everyone was unable to hide their bewilderment at Poison King Baek Sa-ha’s words.‘Formal disciple?’In the case of his second son, Baek So-gang, he had never imagined his father, Baek Sa-ha, would make such a statement.That was because the Baek Clan had always valued the bloodline of the family for generations and never accepted outsiders as disciples.His father, Baek Sa-ha, had also maintained that tradition, so he hadn’t expected him to suddenly accept an outsider as a disciple.‘What exactly happened inside?’He had been continuously wondering what had occurred inside that led his father, Baek Sa-ha, to undergo a complete metamorphosis.It was unlikely for his father to show such favor to this child without something happening.Could it be that he had given him a clue to enlightenment?At that moment, Baek Sa-ha spoke.“Why aren’t you answering?”“Ah,

“But what exactly was the item the Ghost Blade gave you?”The Ghost Blade had given it to Baek Sa-ha, saying there was no longer a reason for them to fight.What did he give him?At Mok Gyeong-un’s question, Baek Sa-ha let out a soft sigh and answered:“Whew. It was the Society Leader’s token.”‘!?’The Society Leader’s token?Upon hearing this, Mok Gyeong-un furrowed his brows.Based on Baek Sa-ha’s words, he had thought that the Ghost Blade might not be related to the Heaven and Earth Society, but if that was the case, the story changed.“…If he gave you the Society Leader’s token, does that mean the Ghost Blade is connected to the Society Leader?”“I don’t know for certain either.”“What do you mean by not knowing for certain?”“It means there’s no way to tell what kind of connection he has with the Society Leader or what instructions he received from the Society Leader.”It was a somewhat ambiguous answer.At this, Mok Gyeong-un asked:“Then did you deliver the token to the Societ

Fssst! Crack! Crunch!As cracks formed, his skin peeled off like a shell, and his muscles twisted and contorted.Upon witnessing his transformation, Cheong-ryeong clicked her tongue and remarked:-Why did you give him a clue to enlightenment?Her desire was for the current Heaven and Earth Society to crumble.However, thanks to the words Mok Gyeong-un had spoken, the Poison King Baek Sa-ha had gained some sort of enlightenment.As a result, he was now able to break through his bottleneck.This also meant that he would become significantly stronger than he was now.-You did something unnecessary. Tsk, tsk.Cheong-ryeong was not pleased with this.Yet, there was no response from Mok Gyeong-un.He was someone who had mastered telepathy and would always provide answers unless it was a special case. Why wasn’t he responding now?Puzzled, she looked at Mok Gyeong-un’s face.“……”‘This guy?’Mok Gyeong-un was intently staring at Baek Sa-ha, who was undergoing a complete metamorphosis.It was
