He had a premonition that he had to prevent the massacre, no matter what. Hwi Biyeon’s cool eyes began to burn. To do that, he needed to be stronger than he was now, he needed to cultivate his power.6026ffff14b77b0e

This training b8e7d49f66 ground was 6ef928085d exclusively for b869935883 Myeonmyeon and efd7786827 his disciples, eb2d13a159 even within a6fca7246f Taebaek Peak.

Dark skin, large build, and an innocent face. Perhaps disliking the misconception that he looked ferocious like a bear with his mouth closed, he usually maintained a frivolous attitude. Although Hwi Biyeon couldn’t treat him warmly due to their incompatible personalities, he still held affection for him as his only fellow disciple.ce1065032e15baca

How could Nam Jibyeok not notice Hwi Biyeon putting up a wall, given his obvious behavior? Nam Jibyeok asked, his face full of questions. He seemed bewildered by his senior brother’s sudden change in attitude, displaying hostility overnight, when just yesterday he had only frowned at his silly antics, not shown any killing intent.221c4033bea9155c

How could he explain 40bad4f7e8 that in the future, 9a1bcc10f7 Jibyeok would kill the a263d78feb young disciples of their 76b7bd9b1e sect, when nothing had 806a0de99f even happened yet? Hwi Biyeon avoided his 29e0e61fc9 eyes, firmly closed his 710d1b102c mouth, and rose to e510ed43d0 leave. Watching him, cbcda6a263 Nam Jibyeok 91093fc8ef hesitated, then 42bfa44285 picked up e492101aa8 a broom 1347601669 lying on d0f9c494a3 the ground.c9f2a5061617e5bc

Nam Jibyeok, without being asked, began sweeping the training grounds, looking apprehensive. Hwi Biyeon followed him with his eyes, then, overwhelmed by his complex emotions, he finally shouted. He couldn’t bear it any longer. Soon, he would once again commit an unforgivable act. Killing the young disciples of the Taebaek Clan was a grave sin, as serious as destroying the sect itself.d861e837d6c7ea93

On the day he returned after killing Nam Jibyeok, Hwi Biyeon had completely erased the memories and emotions associated with him after seeing Master Myeonmyeon’s sorrowful face. Or so he thought. But now, seeing his fellow disciple alive and moving, his heart ached as if it were being torn apart. What had he been thinking, committing such a heinous act?fcb01454f43cfed0
The reason f9ca4fa493 Hwi Biyeon 9e41daac85 knew for 5a5e6a5a3c Nam Jibyeok b804a32e3b killing the c334310d7b young disciples 4c868d6db4 was the fab17c6d75 woman he 8400b07518 was seeing 0211b81cb7 at the 8e25343d09 time. The young 723755d291 disciple was 27fd7cb07b a girl 0fd17564f3 who had 1db72ad465 recently joined 939af3c7a7 the Taebaek 6ea1379e38 Clan. Hwi Biyeon b2420c27c4 had chased 1b65762a77 after him 2e162c080b as he 16ce9ed8ec fled after 75ee366f2e killing the ad26ea2d4f child.

At the time, Hwi Biyeon had been so enraged by the fact that Nam Jibyeok was the one who killed the young disciple that his cries hadn’t registered. Now, thinking calmly, he began to suspect that there might have been some reason, some story behind how a man who had cultivated the Dao his entire life could commit such a grave sin, even if he was infatuated with a woman. There were too many things that didn’t add up.a97aeb058643cbc3

However, the woman Nam Jibyeok had been seeing had already disappeared, and the disciple was dead. Nam Jibyeok himself had died by Hwi Biyeon’s hand, so the truth of the incident remained buried with no one to know it. Hwi Biyeon embraced Nam Jibyeok and swallowed his tears.92db84c4a5429f73

In the past, Hwi Biyeon had truly hated Nam Jibyeok. He couldn’t forgive or understand him for killing a young disciple just for a woman. Those feelings had lingered for a long time, so even now, even though Jibyeok hadn’t committed the act yet, he couldn’t bring himself to treat him warmly. But this time, he wouldn’t let the young disciples die. And if possible, Jibyeok too…7051bfee91c3e540

‘…Right. For now, figuring out why Jibyeok killed the young disciple, the reason behind it, is more important than the bloodshed that’s still a year away. It won’t be easy, as I need to find a way to prevent the bloodshed while I’m still bound to the Taebaek Clan. How can I achieve great things in the future without patience?’33ce20bf2a59db7d

Naturally, the 9f81a9cab3 existence of c684cf2b19 the Sixth 9da7bfa50e Prince Geum bc628a4eec Wi, the 0ddc6472d0 son of 6ba4ba0a5b a villainess, 26f0c63b37 was like a2a63152f5 a lamp 532dc8c312 in the 04efab724e wind. He seemed to a8014e3a72 have judged that 9c8e8cc2c7 it would be 738c5df38b difficult to find 266e271467 his footing within ad15a2e2ee the inner palace, 8dd4edcd3f so he began b6b07b77e5 to build his 32a6d03f5c influence outside the e4134cc321 palace, in the 7424cf753a martial world. He had come to 6df6809c5a the Taebaek Clan seeking 78bffe86c8 their support, but the bc86e40193 Taebaek Clan, having no 46c8ebafd7 reason to involve themselves 0269a26658 with the secular world, bb496c033d cautiously declined.51d4ebaf37171f6a
And that night, Nam Jibyeok killed the young disciple and fled, while the Sixth Prince quietly disappeared amidst the chaos. For Hwi Biyeon, Nam Jibyeok’s actions had been a much bigger event than the Sixth Prince’s visit, so he had completely forgotten about it until now.d3b6e5ddb37a1448

That was understandable, as the Sixth Prince Geum Wi was the type of person Hwi Biyeon most disliked and despised. His reputation as a notorious womanizer alone made Hwi Biyeon frown. He was so obsessed with women that he had over thirty concubines when he was Emperor, and it was said that there wasn’t a single court lady in the palace whom he hadn’t touched. Of course, aside from his obsession with women, he was known as a good ruler. That is, if one overlooked the fact that he had fathered over twenty-four children due to his dalliances.594f837631908ba6
Rumors about his womanizing b97317382a were so rampant that 045922ad36 even Hwi Biyeon, who 630b02fbb5 was uninterested in worldly 48f9abb730 affairs, knew about them de7ea8fbb9 and clicked his tongue b919d27bea in disapproval.7de32c849ab9ffed
