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…- 253.5 K • Completed
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.…- 253.5 K • Completed
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…- 253.5 K • Completed
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…- 253.5 K • Completed
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…- 253.5 K • Completed
“Agh, my head…” Seolyeong regained consciousness, he tried to understand why someone like him, who rarely dreamed, had such a vivid and realistic dream. As a mere creature, there was no way he could fully comprehend the will of the heavens, but after some reflection, he came to a rough conclusion. It must be Wonsi Cheonjon encouraging me not to give up. Saying, Didn’t you already recover a ruptured danjeon twice before? This time too, the light will shine on you. Seolyeong once more…- 253.5 K • Completed
A fateful encounter is both wondrous and unfair. Those chosen by destiny stumble upon it like they would a stone on the road. Those who are not, no matter how hard they pray until their knees wear out, may never meet it. So Seolyeong was a martial artist not just chosen by fate, but favored to a ridiculous degree. When he came to, he was sprawled out on the cold floor of a limestone cave. He groaned, rolled over and looked around, dazed. ‘…Where is this?’ Large stalactites were…- 253.5 K • Completed
It wasn’t ordinary strength. Just the grip of a hand had completely overpowered him. The fool screamed inwardly in frustration. ‘Let go! How dare a wench mock a man! Let go this instant! I won’t say it again. While I’m still being merciful, release this hand!’ In reality, he couldn’t say a word and just flailed in midair like a fool. While their skin was touching, Seolyeong realized the other person wasn’t the Madu. Their body was far too weak for someone who supposedly devastated…- 253.5 K • Completed
Someone more precious than life itself. Someone he would risk his life to protect. To Seolyeong, that someone was Seolhyeon. That was why, on every one of her birthdays, he would make the same request: ‘Be born as my little sister again in the next life, Hyeon-ah. If you do, this brother will give you an even more amazing present than today’s.’ Seolhyeon was what kept Seolyeong alive. Others criticized him for fussing so much over a sibling who was barely younger, but Seolyeong…- 253.5 K • Completed
The first to sense the strange atmosphere drifting through the estate was the sharp and perceptive First Young Master. It had been ten full days since Murong Jeongui went into seclusion. The date of his engagement was fast approaching. At this rate, the daughter of the Peng clan would arrive in Yonyeong within the month to meet her fiancé. Murong Jeongui, who had stubbornly refused the marriage by claiming he was in love with someone else, would have to come to his senses by then. Murong Wi…- 253.5 K • Completed
