Tang Yujae generally disliked three types of people. First, orthodox sect members. Second, those who went on about righteousness and justice. Third, people who talked too much. Unfortunately, his bride matched all three. If they had met in battle, Tang Yujae wouldn’t have stopped at simply killing him. He would have made it much crueler. Thud. The bride slumped into a chair with his head bowed low. “You mean… he’s dead?” Far from being dead, he was in the middle of a…- 253.5 K • Completed
- How much time had passed? When Seolyeong glanced down, expecting the child to be asleep, he found the boy wide awake, staring up at him. His pupils were black, almost no light reflected in them. According to the old folks, eyes like that belonged to beasts. Human eyes were supposed to carry a hint of brown. So Seolyeong became curious. Sometimes old beasts turned into spirit creatures and wore human skin. Could the boy in his arms be one of those? Before he could even question him, the boy…

- His first time? Mae Inyeong was at a loss for words, she just opened and closed her crimson lips. Hadn’t it been at least half a month since the Mad Bride entered the sect? Of course, she had already heard the rumors that he was rejected on their wedding night. But for it to last this long was hard to comprehend. Even to Mae Inyeong, who was used to being around renowned beauties, the Mad Bride was quite the looker. Surely Cheonsin would have been satisfied and taken him to bed by now. Inyeong…

- The Sect Leader is nearby. There was no doubt about it, and yet Inyeong still couldn’t find him. The streets were packed with people. Her sharp eyes glinted like a wildcat’s. Her glossy irises bore resemblance to her sister Mae Somyeong’s. A low voice echoed in her mind. –Too far. Stay calm. A flush spread across Mae Inyeong’s cheeks. –Sect Leader, what brings you here without a word? If I’d known, I would have taken more time preparing myself. She was a fanatic among…

- The old Cheonma Divine Sect’s headquarters, once established in Shingang, was now under the control of the Jipilgak Lord. In other words, what was once the central sect had now been demoted to a branch. Cho Woonrim, who acted as the sect leader’s proxy, was a man obsessed with the flow of money. He would turn a blind eye to any business as long as it generated profit, collecting massive kickbacks in the process. Because of this, Shingang had become a hub of illegal enterprises. It was no…

- When the new Demonic Sect rose to power, the foreign martial factions that had once contributed to the downfall of the old Cheonma Divine Sect quietly withdrew. Wasn’t it thanks to the active support of Podalap Palace and the Northern Ice Palace that the righteous faction had managed to win the Great War? The leader of the Murim Alliance even sent a handwritten letter, and at the very least, a scorpion messenger, asking for cooperation, but they received no reply. The new Demonic Sect did not…

- A physician must not pity their patient. It might sound strange, but Yuwon’s definition of medical ethics came from an old-fashioned belief: emotions should never interfere with medicine. That was why Yuwon also tried not to pity the camellia flower cast into such a tragic fate. When Seolyeong, whom she had nursed day and night for two days, finally recovered, she packed a hexagonal tea box with suyucha, a tea known for calming the mind. “Please make sure to drink it after meals, Sogyoju-nim.…

- There’s a limit to shamelessness. Seolyeong, who despised sexist drivel directed at women far more than sexual harassment toward himself, clicked his tongue. “I heard from the attendants the other day that the world you built is better than the one where men who treat women like dirt run rampant in the martial world. I suppose that was all a lie.” In the end, his chronic illness flared up again. The name of that illness was teacher complex. If there was even a sliver of something to correct, he…

- But the ruffian who had turned the entire martial world upside down and even abducted the pillars of the Nine Great Sects and Five Noble Clans showed no interest in the bride’s pleading. A breeze from the river stirred the silk curtains. Behind the soft fabric, the silhouettes of thickly grown maple trees flickered faintly. The robe worn by the Sect Leader looked smooth on the surface. An embroidered sash cinched tightly beneath his chest, and beneath the collar, which dipped especially low, his…

- Si Pungjae, who had just praised the Cheonsin, turned a cold gaze on Choseon. Sensing danger, Hwang Choseon quickly hid behind Seolyeong, then, as if propelled by recoil, darted out again. Come to think of it, Seolyeong was no longer the Baekseol he once knew. The elegant swordsman who used to soar through the air with a flurry of white sword Qi had vanished along with his shattered danjeon. Now, without his inner Qi, Seolyeong was no more than a sturdy-bodied mosquito brat. Choseon hated to think of…
