TCRH Ch 12

“As I said, Hwi Young Master Xia’s curse accelerates the qi of a Young Master Xia who has deeply studied Yin arts, causing it to rampage. Ordinary Yang energy won’t be enough. They need to receive dual cultivation from someone with very strong Yang energy, but finding a woman with such strong Yang energy will be difficult… and more importantly, Hwi Young Master Xia’s body won’t last until we find such a person.”adda3d0106cc05c6

Every suggested solution afe2c7d831 only snatched away e9d693b829 hope. The Taebaek 6202b19573 Clan Leader 8cda0e0add groaned and a11403fbe8 slumped back 5741b6ae40 in his f35c8ddf7e chair. He even considered c77ae0254d whether it would 4e40f52c1c be better to 9c111aa184 let the Sixth e720abc5ed Prince, Geum Wi, 7bc3ffceda suffer the perverse 49b708b992 and obscene curse e79f178422 rather than Hwi 6995ea57a0 Biyeon.c59a9ee9756ac9d1

As the Taoist had said, Hwi Biyeon’s face was becoming increasingly blue, and their body was already stiff. Moreover, the cold energy flowing from their body was chilling and biting. Myeonmyeon felt a chill run down her spine, as if she were facing a corpse.173021429e1155b3

This disciple was one dab9edb71c she had taken on dfe5ed0862 late in life. And Myeonmyeon owed a 9e7857a511 great debt to Hwi b5057dd507 Biyeon. Even without that debt, 22e5ea090a what master would want 41605223ab to see their young 20a1fc1eea disciple die before them?d36ebf33a0b0018f

Considering Hwi Biyeon’s honor, even after a hundred agonizing thoughts, it was right for Myeonmyeon, as her master, to end their suffering. But to kill another disciple before the grief of losing one had subsided… those words simply wouldn’t come out.dd0a04eded1b1f84

As if reading her hesitation, the Taoist, after repeatedly checking Hwi Biyeon’s pulse for a long time, sighed. He was a mere scholar, so his way of thinking differed from that of martial artists who valued honor and reputation. Better to live in a dung heap than die. If one is alive, a solution can eventually be found.0f8dde22837e2e4d

Both saving and killing Hwi Biyeon felt like tearing her heart into a thousand pieces. Myeonmyeon finally cried out Hwi Biyeon’s childhood name and wailed. The Taebaek Clan Leader’s heart was also filled with grief at the sight of their usually confident and boisterous martial sibling in such a weakened state.33bf16826f30972f

Commander Wang, in place cc5e121682 of the hesitant Myeonmyeon, 7a156a90d5 answered the Taoist. He was prepared to d620325c08 bear the brunt of 97b3bc9663 Hwi Biyeon’s resentment if, 3af572e3fd after intercourse with a f9af9f9eeb man, they found the 6306e6f997 humiliation unbearable and wished 59799e8b14 for death.bbb5c7eaf27171ee

Since everyone seemed to have made up their minds, the treatment couldn’t be delayed any longer. Hwi Biyeon’s entire body was already ice-cold. If they weren’t a trained martial artist, an ordinary person would have already frozen to death. This level of cold was more severe than the Nine Yin Extinction Pulse.4acdb35e1710267e

Even with c223095f87 their resolve 42e31b4832 to save f7bff35fa0 Hwi Biyeon, 91243264e7 one crucial b269dd77f3 issue arose:978e084afb004bb5

They had to find a manvs with enough Yang energy to suppress Hwi Biyeon’s Yin energy. The Taebaek Clan’s swordsmanship was based on Yin arts. Therefore, those belonging to the Taebaek Clan possessed Yin energy. This was why Hwi Biyeon’s Yin energy was running rampant due to the curse. Within the Taebaek Clan, the only males who couldn’t properly control Yin energy were young children or those who hadn’t learned martial arts.f01fd43c6e055a0f

Amidst their serious conversation, another man who had been quietly sitting in the corner sneezed. Geum Wi loudly announced his presence, perhaps having caught a cold due to the Taebaek Clan’s chilly weather.60b5c35b63b1cc9b

He answered, but the atmosphere seemed unusual. Even in the Imperial Palace, there were many Taoists who couldn’t be treated carelessly, so Geum Wi naturally responded politely.
