The old sliding door made a creaking sound as it closed. As Jeong Yeon-shin stepped inside, the scent of aged wood hit him sharply, mingled with the faint, distinct fragrance of incense typical of a temple where rituals are held. This temple was quite a distance from Shaolin. Those seated around the large, round wooden table turned their heads toward him. With just that small movement, the air in the room rippled translucently. Even though no one emitted a particularly strong…-

There is a saying: “All martial arts under heaven originate from Shaolin.” Even now, if you trace back the countless branches of martial arts, all the various martial lineages, you eventually reach the rugged slopes of Mount Song. Not even the Sima Evil Path can deny this. Mount Song, the Central Sacred Mountain. This is where Shaolin Temple was founded. It was also the place the youngest of the Jeong family in Henan once dreamed of climbing. To pray for his mother’s repose. Back then,…

Footsteps echoed quietly on the earth. Step. Jeong Yeon-shin slowly descended to the ground, lowering his eyelids for a moment. Perhaps because it was a summer forest, the humid heat pressed against his skin, while the sensation beneath his feet felt peculiar—damp and tough. This was Jeong family land. More precisely, it was the back mountain, the burial ground for the retainers of a great landlord family. ‘Strange rumors were circulating in Dengfeng County.’ Previously, he had…

For a while, Divine Sword Group Leader Yong Hui-myeong quietly gazed at Jeong Yeon-shin before slowly opening his mouth. “That’s not quite right.” “…?” Jeong Yeon-shin’s head tilted slightly to the side. Yong Hui-myeong’s eyes glimmered with a hint of laughter. The Divine Sword Group Leader, whose dismissal had been postponed due to the chaos of the times, seemed like an eldest brother who enjoyed the arts but understood the ways of the world. He spoke slowly. “The…

Chapter 420 – Martial Lineage
Dengfeng County, Henan Province. A vast and vibrant city. It enjoyed peace beneath the scenery of Mount Song, which rose as if gently carving the sky. Despite the severe famine, there were no Sima Evil Path practitioners committing atrocities. That's why it flourished. A land where the renowned monk disciples of Shaolin modestly nourished the earth energy. Most commoners had at least some food to put in their mouths. They showed no particular envy toward the mansion situated like a…-

The Crown Prince commanded silence among the assembled ministers. It was conduct difficult to attribute to someone so revered, but immediately many ceased their criticisms. Not all of them, however. A group gathered on one side of the red carpet bisecting the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The scholars of the Hanlin Academy were like this. "Please reconsider, Your Highness." An elderly scholar opened his mouth as if he hadn't heard the Crown Prince's words. From the beginning, they only…

The Imperial Guard Deputy Commander's eyes widened. At this moment, only two things were reflected in his eyes: the leather shoes of the young man standing on the reed and the black trouser hem flowing down like ebony. This was because the Deputy Commander was looking up from beneath the massive body of the human-faced spider. Wasn't he on the verge of death, impaled by the spider's legs? Nevertheless, he recognized who it was. This was because he had assessed the intruder's physique with the…

A rough roar echoed. Kwakwakwak—! Jeong Yeon-shin shot up through the roof of the golden palace. At this moment, he was holding a reed that was the same color as the tile fragments that were shattering and scattering. Thanks to the Fan Dragon Treading Lotus Technique, the reed had been imbued with the principle of the Mind-controlling sword. Just holding it made sword flight possible. Because it carried the weight of an adult, it couldn't match the speed of the Ten Li Gentle Light lightness…

Chapter 416 – Heavenly Silk Robe
The noble city of Beijing. Jeong Yeon-shin paused as he was walking. He had just met with the Chief Eunuch and was on his way back when he felt a gaze intently focused on him. The night in Beijing was bright. Lantern light flowed hazily from the straight, long streets, illuminating the marketplace. Naturally, the figure of a young man staring blankly at Jeong Yeon-shin while accompanied by two servants in the distance was clearly visible. He appeared to be about 15 or 16 years old. His…-

Chapter 415 – Beijing (7)
Thus, two wine cups were placed facing each other. One cup reflecting the complete full moon, and another with the full moon split in half by an extremely delicate and refined energy strike. They belonged to the Chief Ceremonial Eunuch and Jeong Yeon-shin respectively. Across the simply set drinking table, the Chief Eunuch's pale face twisted into an indescribable expression. "...You truly are his grandson." She tapped the table lightly with the finger that had touched Jeong Yeon-shin's cup.…-
