That night, we returned to the villa. I learned why Jin So-wol lived in the villa instead of the Sowol Pavilion. It was because of the sound. She, whose five senses were extremely sensitive, couldn't stand the sounds of lovemaking and moans that leaked out of the brothel all night. For her, who had to sleep during the day when the sun was out and be active at night when others were sleeping, it was nothing short of torture. The reason I followed Jin So-wol to the villa was not to see her off. I…-

The rings that had spread out in the air intertwined to form a net. The Heaven-Severing Sword cut and cut at the nets. But my Heaven's Net, which restored its shape like water cut by a sword, relentlessly tightened around him. In the meantime, the lightning that erupted from my iron staff continuously flew at his vital points. If even one of them hit directly, he would not be able to avoid a catastrophe. The face of the Heaven-Severing Sword, who had lost the initiative at some point, contorted…

Jin So-wol read my mind. "Are you planning to avenge him?" I affirmed with silence. Jin So-wol frowned. "You heard from my father that Lady Buyong joined the Hyeon family, right?" "Yes." "Shin Pil-ju used his daughter as a bridge to trade with the Hyeon family. And over the past twenty years, he has built up a legendary achievement. From being a mere head spy of a remote Black Gate, he has become a wealthy man known throughout the Central Plains. He is currently the Great Merchant of…

The Ten-Complete Martial Artist was the former moniker of the Martial King, Gyeon Sa-hwi. He was my father's idol and also the person my father urged me to pledge my loyalty to. Not wanting to make the Martial King the topic of conversation, I moved the story forward. "So, did he succeed?" It was a question that didn't need to be asked. "Of course not. Shin Pil-ju's ambitious plan ended in failure. Of course, he did his best. He also had considerable success. He even managed to arrange a secret…

The villa was not far. After walking along the path for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, I saw a light. As I approached the light, a quiet tiled house appeared. It was a villa with no gate or wall. In the not-so-wide courtyard, a shadow stood. I narrowed my eyes and examined the figure. Although she was six feet tall and had a sturdy frame, she was a woman. Her full breasts bulged as if they would burst out of her martial arts uniform. The woman was far from being a beauty. She had a…

I parted ways with the Eccentric Immortal in the mountains. The Eccentric Immortal left for the Valley of No Return, the site of his duel, to face his 'lifelong rival' in a 'once-in-a-lifetime battle.' He invited me to accompany him, but I refused. It wasn't to participate in the remaining matches. I no longer had any interest in the martial arts tournament. The successor of the Taegeuk Sword Sect, who was said to be the strongest among the participants along with the rising star of the Hundred Blades…

I stood up from my chair. It wasn't to show respect to the middle-aged man. My body had reacted on its own. The middle-aged man limped on his right foot, and his left arm remained stuck to his torso, not swaying even with his unsteady gait. He was short and had a small build. Someone I knew was also like that. My father. But that wasn't the only reason my heart had stopped in shock. The middle-aged man's appearance was also strikingly similar to my father's. Skin as white as paper, delicate…

In the middle of the tiled house's courtyard stood a bald old man with a ferocious impression. I recalled the moniker, name, and history I had heard from the Eccentric Immortal. Bald-Headed Ghost Blade, Oh Sung. Oh Sung was a self-made man in his own right. Oh Sung, who had been nothing more than a mediocre swordsman until his mid-forties, suddenly became a master of the highest level, as if he had encountered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He then went on a spree, defeating the renowned…

Regret clouded the old man's eyes. "At the great hero Go's request, I intentionally approached your sworn brother. The great hero Go's tip that your sworn brother longed for friendship with a learned scholar was true. He treated me with such utmost respect that I didn't know what to do with myself. As my friendship with your sworn brother deepened, my worries grew. You don't know how much I agonized. But in the end, I couldn't refuse the great hero Go's plea to help him just once. That day, I…

It was past the third watch, but the Okcheong Pavilion was as bright as day with lanterns hanging everywhere. Finding the Hundred Blades Alliance's residence was easy. Although there were few people on the streets at this late hour, it didn't hinder my inquiries. I learned the name Okcheong Pavilion and the way there from the second passerby I encountered and came straight here. Despite the old man, the Eccentric Immortal's, attempts to dissuade me, I chose the direct approach to show my strength to…
