    • Chapter 48 – Encounter (2) Cover
      by Heavenly Cat — "Yeon-shin, we cannot leave that child like that." An old voice rang out. It was in the Desolate Sect sect leader's office. An old martial artist in purple robe and Ma Jin in black martial uniform sat respectfully before the Desolate Sect Lord. Sunlight draped on the completely open wall. There were pale green light clusters gathering in the Desolate Sect Lord's hair. Ma Jin glanced at his father. "The more we approach, the more he can withdraw. He seemed to feel no emotion toward blood…
    • Chapter 47 – Encounter Cover
      by Heavenly Cat — The next morning, mission preparations were complete. Jeong Yeon-shin received a travel pack containing various items, provisions, and travel expenses. As a blue warrior, they said he had to be responsible. Additionally, the characters engraved on the Desolate Sect martial uniform were covered with silk pieces. It was quite exquisite. "It's a place dealing with famous families. Since it's a dangerous mission, we don't change disguises." Do Yu-won from the General Administration Office nodded at…
    • Chapter 46 – Preparation (2) Cover
      by Heavenly Cat — The crown prince came closer. Jeong Yeon-shin stood still holding his sword. Sword song. At this moment, the foundation of an art that could handle groups was created. "Let's meet often." Crown Prince Zhu Lun-ming said. That was all. The crown prince showed no more emotion. He seemed to have lived that way. 'Does it mean don't die elsewhere?' Jeong Yeon-shin raised his head after making his courtesy. It was after the crown prince entered the armory. Cheong Myeong who slowly…
    • Chapter 45 – Preparation Cover
      by Heavenly Cat — Jeong Yeon-shin thought it wasn't good. The martial world was harsh. Arrogance was an emotion that encouraged early death. It wasn't a feeling to harbor even before eating the fruit. Just because many people treated him as a genius didn't mean he should really think that way. 'Just give me the fruit. I'll do anything.' He gave himself this suggestion. He recalled the deep green pupils set in the Desolate Sect Lord's curved eye-smile. A feeling like falling into an endless abyss. While…
    • Chapter 44 – Promotion (2) Cover
      by Heavenly Cat — The hierarchy of the murim was like the Yangtze River. It meant the upper and lower positions didn't change. No matter how strong one's martial arts, one couldn't stand above masters, senior uncles, and master uncles. Desolate Sect was different. They called it the Great Ming Empire's sword. The word "promotion" was alien. The term itself revealed Desolate Sect's unique aspect. They highly valued sharp swords. That's why they forbade master-disciple bonds and introduced promotions. "It's…
    • Chapter 43 – Promotion Cover
      by Heavenly Cat — The Seventh Apostle lost her left eye. Jeong Yeon-shin casually mocked her halved vision. His gaze moved to one side for a moment as he exhaled. Cheong Myeong, wearing a classical eyepatch, was handling five Blood Snake Swords alone. It was quite far away. He probably hadn't heard. Ma Jin beside him rarely stammered. "That, what was that?" "Demon Destroying Blue Steel Hand. A martial art to open the crowns of blood demons." Jeong Yeon-shin answered roughly. The Seventh Apostle was glaring…
    • Chapter 42 – Counter Martial Arts (3) Cover
      by Heavenly Cat — It was the middle-aged man who had emitted energy waves suspicious of being a Blood Swordmaster. Jeong Yeon-shin caught up to such a guy's back in one breath. Even if he had dug into a moment of carelessness as usual, it was surprising. The speed itself was different. He expected power of a completely new system. 'However.' The force wave emitted from his striking hand was different from expected. Even while delivering a fatal strike to the guy's head, it was puzzling. The martial arts he…
    • Chapter 41 – Counter Martial Arts (2) Cover
      by Heavenly Cat — The stream leaving the lakeside rippled holding the sun. The Deep Martial Alliance rising talents' boat continued forward without stopping. Only the owner had changed. Meanwhile, Jeong Yeon-shin heard Master Won Jong's story. It was a tale like wind streams meandering with the waves. "I was about your age. I was immature. With a body like a piglet. Unlike you who already stands tall as a martial artist." Early spring wind blew. The old monk's voice seemed to seep into the trees lining the…
    • Chapter 40 – Counter Martial Arts Cover
      by Heavenly Cat — "Dharma power martial arts! Really…!" Master Won Jong let out a shocked cry upon seeing Jeong Yeon-shin. His wrinkled eyes trembled as if greatly surprised. The Seventh Apostle seemed more composed in comparison. "Easy to handle? Looking at it, it seems to be martial arts at the level of Shaolin techniques, just strong against blood techniques. It's not enough to overcome the difference in our true martial prowess. You're still far below me. Quite cute." The Seventh Apostle said with a bright…
    • Chapter 39 – The Old Monk’s Grudge (3) Cover
      by Heavenly Cat — Shaolin fist techniques had magnificence and discipline as if imbuing even the soul's power. Though seemingly simple at first glance, they weren't. The principles entering the strikes were profound and complex. However, he had seen enough of Gak Jeong's fist and leg techniques. Jeong Yeon-shin didn't wait for an answer. He turned from his heel. Simultaneously he felt the flow connecting from his waist to his right arm. It was free and powerful. Whoosh! Though looking simple, he generated…
