Shinbeop Amyeong (暗影)一 He is the person who founded Sacheondangga and is the martial arts teacher of Muyeonggaek, who was once the world’s greatest killer. In terms of stealth and close-quarters mobility, it was one of the best in the world. After Muyeonggaek, there were not many people who reached Daesung, so it is not very well known.
Yeon Yeon-myeong was unable to fully unfold the secret spirit of the divine law due to the lung veins, but it was still enough to surprise Sang Myeong-il.
“…The accomplishment of the divine law is amazing. Even though the eye method is in operation, my eyes cannot keep up with it.”
Guhwan District Prosecutor Sang Myeong-il broke the silence and spoke with admiration. He wasn’t just saying it. It was unbelievable considering his age, but even he, the so-called Sado Yujon, missed the movements of Tang family Sogaju Yeon Myeong several times. It appears that the secret nature of the divine law itself is unusual.
Of course, this did not mean that Sang Myung-il was wary of Yeon-myeong. Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean you can’t deal with it. No, rather, in the final battle between the experts, there were many cases where neither player could properly see each other’s movements. Eyesight is only an auxiliary means, and in the end, the opponent’s movements are understood through the sense of energy that has been forged through the senses.
However, that was only the position of Sang Myeong-il, who was on top of the flower and possessed an overwhelming spirit. There was a stir among the participants of the Sacheon branch, which still relies heavily on the law.
‘..Three people died in the blink of an eye.’
“It’s a terrible new law. That Song Yeon-jeok was taken away in an instant. How can we accept that the fire fighter of Cheonjinbang, who was good at close combat, died without even being able to swing the long technique properly….”
“I thought that a small-scale interpersonal battle would be at a disadvantage to the Tang family Sogaju, but that is not necessarily the case. There is no need to memorize martial arts, and all you have to do is get close and stab with a feather needle using the new method, so it does not seem like it will take a lot of internal energy.”
“…Rather than that, is there anyone who has properly captured the author’s movements? I don’t know anything else, but I think that the home appliance method of the main house is not much inferior to that of the prestigious school, but honestly, it doesn’t move until you stab it with a feather needle. “I was completely missing it.”
“Even the Guhwan High Prosecutors’ Office approves it….”
“At this point, will there be anyone who will make the next life-or-death decision? They may face a dog’s death. In addition, the prestige of the branch they belong to is at stake. Think about it. If a rumor spreads throughout Sichuan that he died without even being able to launch properly… even the common people would find it funny. Wouldn’t this be the case?”
“It would seem that Tianjinbang is completely over. I heard that Song Yeonjeok killed quite a few of his disciples during the succession struggle. He disposed of all potential threats and joined the Sichuan Branch.”
“I covet the interest of the capital, but Tang family Sogaju’s skills are beyond imagination. I’m starting to think that the rumors may not be exaggerated.
Wouldn’t it be wiser to preserve one’s life rather than indulge in foolish greed?”
“It’s not a military affair, it’s a matter of life and death. If you don’t have an enmity with the Tang family, there’s no reason to step forward. The Taeeulmuk Sword Sect and Cheonjinbang, who faced life-or-death situations earlier, have a grudge against the Tang family at Gonggongsan Mountain… Wait, Mokyeong Palace. “Don’t you have a grudge against the head of the Tang family? I heard that Prince Jang Tae-cheon passed away while chasing some Taoist monks.”
“This person here is the master of Mokyeong Palace.”
“Be quiet before I tear your mouth open. How dare you murder someone!”
While the participants continued to argue, Sang Myeong-il once again acknowledged Yeon-myeong’s victory and promised him an interest in the territory of Cheon-jin-bang.
“I guess you won’t need a bit of rest this time either…?”
“Yes. There wasn’t much movement.”
To Sang Myung-il’s formal question, Yeon Myeong answered calmly. In fact, it didn’t feel like bragging because he didn’t break a drop of sweat and wasn’t breathing at all.
‘This guy’s inaction is better than I thought. As expected, Gaga deserves to be hit.’
Yeo Seol-ryeon thought as she bit her lower lip so that it could not be seen. She began to feel that something was not going well. She had only been through two life-and-death battles, and it seemed like she no longer had any participants who were willing to face life-and-death battles with her name. The words that she heard at first glance were often mixed with things like that she couldn’t stand it or that she had to preserve her life.
It was a disaster.
I thought that if a waterway were to be opened, the proud successors, who would be greedy for the saints’ interests, would constantly lose their stamina and endurance by putting themselves in a life-or-death situation. Only in this way can the tomb of the wheel be saved.
Yeo Seol-ryeon gestured with her hand and ordered the provincial governors to remove the bodies of the Cheonjin-bang people.
Sang Myeong-il spoke again, casting his gaze at the Sacheon branch participants.
“If there is anyone who is in a life-or-death situation with the Tang family’s Sojiazhu, please come forward.”
“Is there anyone?”
Sang Myung-il asked again, but no one came forward. In some ways, it was a situation where the prestige of the entire Sado Bangpa was greatly damaged because the enemy could not withstand a single attack, but those who walked Sado originally tended to value practicality. Isn’t that kind of temperament reflected in the martial arts that one learns? Trying to gain force efficiently and quickly.
These are people who deliberately shorten the process of true teaching, abandon purity, and aim for rapid accumulation of inner strength. In addition, even though the connection between herbivores is not as natural as water, they prefer to practice only one powerful, single-shot herbivore. So there were not many masters in Sado Bangpa. That is, until Yoo Gil-jun, the Heuksaryeonju, appeared and created and modified numerous apostolic martial arts.
Anyway, even after counting to ten, no one spoke about life or death. It appears that each person is trying to protect their lives.
At that time, Yeon Myeong opened his mouth.
“If the Guhwan High School Prosecutor allows, I would like to deal with Yeo-rit at once. Of course, in a life-or-death situation.”
“…Are you saying you will tolerate the joint venture?”
Well, it was originally a joint venture, Sang Myung-il continued, muttering like that.
“If the person involved is okay with it, then it doesn’t matter. It will save time. It doesn’t look like there is anyone who wants to decide life or death with you as it is anyway. So, how many people are you willing to deal with at the same time?”
“It may sound arrogant, but honestly, I don’t mind if all the participants give in.”
“what…?”
Sang Myung-il asked back, as if he was dumbfounded by the confidence that Yeon Myeong showed. He also knew through rumor that Yeon Myeong had once killed hundreds of people with his incredible memorization and lack of knowledge. However, those gathered here are the descendants of each faction. It is not uncommon for people to have accumulated a considerable amount of energy for their age by receiving bee-washing from a young age and drinking all kinds of elixirs. This is because they have a precious status in their own way, and they were raised with the Sacheon branch in mind in the first place. If you combine the young elite guards and servants of each faction, it could be said to be a huge force comparable to most Bangpas. Will I be able to handle that kind of power alone…?
‘Is it forbearance? No matter how you look at it, it’s not that bad.’
Sang Myung-il narrowed his brows and once again measured Yeon Myeong’s accomplishments. From his sense of accomplishment, he simply seemed to be at a superior level for his age. No matter how much he uses memorized martial arts that increases his lethality by using extreme poison, everyone here is expecting that. There was no way he would be treated so gently. There were space limitations here, so it was virtually like being surrounded. Against this number of people, the strategy of approaching using new methods is useless.
The other participants, who were avoiding a life-or-death relationship with Yeon Myeong, also spit out one word at a time, perhaps because their pride was greatly damaged this time.
“Do I want to die?”
“I heard you were unlucky from the start. But you ended up making a mistake.”
“You’re just making an absurd claim to be superior to the new law. You’re not seeing anything.”
“Could it be that they thought there was no way such a number of people would really join forces and provoked it? Since they have already secured the interests of the two factions through a life-or-death decision, it appears they are becoming more greedy.”
“Then what if we all really step forward and share the interests of the saints among ourselves…!”
“Well, since he spit it out with his mouth, unless you have a very thick face, you probably won’t be able to bite it.”
As the participants of the Sacheon branch talked among themselves, the opinion that it would be better if they really joined forces began to gain strength. That was the atmosphere. Wouldn’t it be worth a try at this level? Since the martial arts learned by the successors of each faction were diverse, the means of attack would also be diverse, and hopeful remarks were made several times that even if one’s martial arts skills in memorizing Tang songs were excellent, they would not be able to exert much power against those who had spread out.
But then.
Simhwa Ark Yeo Seol-ryeon came forward.
“Dangga Sogaju. Regardless of whether you have the capabilities or not, the Ark cannot tolerate you changing the rules of life and death in such a way. In particular, isn’t your martial arts specializing in mass murder?”
It is a self-evident fact that a lot of blood will be shed regardless of victory or defeat. Yeo Seol-ryeon continued speaking as she glanced at the faces of the Sacheon branch participants.
“You, too, think about it. What was the reason for the Sacheon branch to start a fight for power through life-and-death issues and secret duties in the first place? Graciously, Lord Ryeon gave us the martial arts that he created himself or changed the martial arts of the Bangpa under his command, and it is here today in Sacheon. The power of the apostles has become so strong that it can be safely called the world of apostles. This is something that has been unprecedented for hundreds of years: a realm that is neither righteous nor demonic, but solely our apostles…!”
“What the Ark said is true.”
“It’s definitely the blessing of the Lord.”
Most of the participants shook their heads at Yeo Seol-ryeon’s words.
“In the future, in the hope of maintaining the Sado world as it is now, each faction agreed to fight for interests by holding a kind of proxy war through succession in the Sichuan branch. The request for the natural name of the Tang family’s Sojiaju runs counter to the spirit of the Sichuan branch. Therefore, as the host of the Sacheon Branch, we once again ask you to adhere to the rules of life and death.”
Yeo Seol-ryeon said, “Please, please take into consideration the Guhwan High School Prosecutor,” and sat down next to Heuksahwa Yoo Yeon-hee again.
“Of course, there is truth in what Ark said.”
Sang Myeong-il said while looking at Yeon Myeong.
“Your request will not be granted.”
Looking at Yeon-myeong, who was silent for a moment, Yeo Seol-ryeon smiled in remorse. I don’t know why, but she felt like her natural name was very active in her life and death. Why? Is she coveting the interests of other Bangpas? Or maybe she had some other purpose, I didn’t know, but in any case, she followed her intuition and disrupted things from going as planned.
Sang Myeong-il, the Guhwan District Prosecutor’s Office, who presented an appropriate justification, also sided with her. As she felt a sense of relief as if she had been punched, she thought about Yeo Seol-ryeon. Now, what should we do now? Memorized martial arts capable of mass murder is now useless…!
It was then.

Yeon Myeong’s lips were soft.
“It’s a rule,” he said longingly, and glanced at Yeo Seol-ryeon with a strange look.
Yeon Myeong opened his mouth again.
“Clearly, you said that a person who has been assigned a life-or-death decision has no right to refuse.”
Is it because of my mood? The descendants of each Bangpa somehow felt a sense of relief.
A calm voice continued.
“From now on, I will nominate the person who will determine my life or death.”
As he added, “Following the rules,” the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
