three days.

During the remaining time until the great meeting, Xue Longhui visited several families in the Beihai Ice Palace..

“Are you already trying to win the hearts of those below you??”

Seol Soo-ryeon must have thought that this was an action to secure Seol Ryong-hwi's support base before he became the lord of the small palace, and even provided a seat for him, saying that it was amazing..

But in reality, something completely different was happening than she thought..

“Grandfather…….”

The heir of the Han family, who had been in bed for several months and had been completely deprived of food or drink, woke up and woke up..

The boy smiled brightly with a pale face..

“I don't feel any pain anymore.”

“It's Hyun!”

Han Songbaek hugged his young grandson..

A miracle really happened.

How would the grandfather feel as he watched the boy growing weaker day by day due to addiction to poison?.

How many times have I thought about going to Seolsuryun, getting down on my knees, and asking to cancel my contract?.

It might have been that way if a few more months, or even ten days, had passed..

“There is nothing to worry about now. You'll never be sick again.”

“yes… … . I want to sleep a little longer.”

Although the poison was detoxified, it was inevitable that his physical strength would weaken..

Han Songbaek laid the sleeping boy down on the bed and turned his head to look at Seolryonghui..

There were tears in the eyes of the old man. The two eyes were showing a firm resolve..

“Thank you. I won't forget this grace of mine even if I die.”

“Don't pay me back with something strange later..”

Seolryonghui smiled and nodded..

Han Songbaek, who personally witnessed the miracle, also secretly contacted elders from other families..

Families whose successors were held hostage by the poison written by Seol Su-ryeon.

Because of this, there were many people who had no choice but to swear allegiance to the Xue family and swallow their anger..

“Poison, can you detoxify poison? Is it true??”

“If that's true…….”

“I will do anything!”

Han Songbaek obtained a promise from them..

“But we need you to join us..”

Dissatisfaction with the Xue family, which had ruled the North Sea for decades, was already widespread..

Everyone was surprised for a moment when they heard that they were going to hold a Lunar New Year song, but after much thought, they decided to join the plan..

“……All right.”

“That's right!”

“Three days later, the competition... … . I will remember.”

All of this was happening without Seol Su-ryun’s eyes..

Seolryonghui went around the family, treating the poison, receiving thanks, and chatting briefly with the elders who agreed to participate in the plan..

[What if there is a traitor among them??]

Baek Soo-ryong shrugged his shoulders at Changryong Shingeom’s concerned words..

‘The Grand Elder said he only contacted people he trusted. I have no choice but to believe that part..’

There was no such thing as a perfect plan in the first place..

I had no choice but to take some risk with it..

However, the Changryongshingeom trembled as if it had been waiting for those words..

[So I cast a spell.]

‘what kind of technique?’

[If any of them come into contact with the Seol family, I will be the first to know. I'll let you know right away.]

“you…….”

White Water Dragon looked at the Changryong God Sword with an admiring face. I couldn't say anything because there were people around me listening..

‘It's a really useful sword.?’

[Didn't I tell you? you need to respect me a little more.]

A boastful tone. When Baeksu-ryong swept the sword body of Changryongshingeom, Changryongshingeom trembled as if it was in a good mood..

After treating all the poisons, I went to see Eunhwiryeong..

Eunhwiryeong spent time wandering around his residence and reflecting on his own martial arts skills..

She was meditating with her sword on her lap, and it looked like a general waiting for a big battle..

dripping-

When Baek Soo-ryong knocked on the door and came in, Eun Hwi-ryeong, who was sitting cross-legged, opened her eyes..

“……Is it okay for me to come see you so carelessly??”

“It's okay now that he completely trusts me. And I have something to show the palace lord..”

“show me?”

White Water Dragon drew his sword without hesitation..

Eunhwiryeong, who flinched for a moment, placed his hand on the blade of the Bingbaeksingeom, but soon realized that it was not meant to attack him and stopped his hand..

“what…….”

“Take a good look.”

Baek Soo-ryong performed the Shinwol Bingbaek dance in front of Eun Hwi-ryeong..

Although it wasn't under the moonlight, the sword dance he performed was enough to steal Eunhwiryeong's soul..

The wind created by the sword brought in the north wind, and the pure white air currents that wrapped around the body dispersed according to the body's movements, creating cold snow. Countless ice particles swirled around him..

After performing all the movements of Shinwolbing Baekmu, Baeksu-ryong slowly struck a lead sword..

“Shinwol Bingbaek Radish. The five principles of the Bingbaeksingongong created by Bingwol Shinnyeo in her later years..”

“…….”

Looking only at the accomplishments of Bingbaeksingong, Eunhwiryeong and Seolsuryeon were better than Baeksuryong..

This was because the period of training for a single martial art was more than several decades apart..

Nevertheless, Baek Soo-ryong showed Eun Hwi-ryeong the Shinwol Bingbaek dance..

It may seem immature in her eyes, but on the contrary, she is an expert who can find the mystery in that immaturity..

After a short silence, Eunhwiryeong opened his mouth..

“……It's not much different..”

“You already said that Bingbaeksingong is a completely flawless martial art. You said that what has changed is your mental image. If you put a ray of warmth into the cold, the martial arts you have learned so far will look different..”

“It's a mental image…….”

Eunhwiryeong, who repeated several times as if realizing something, closed his eyes..

Ugh-!

The ice white sword on her lap vibrated slightly..

[It's a new sword. I saw that it responded to the owner's will..]

As if it couldn't lose, the Changryongshingeom also trembled. Baek Su-ryong saw that and sighed softly..

After a while, Eunhwiryeong opened his eyes and opened his mouth..

“From generation to generation, the Bingbaekshingeom was passed down to the palace lord, and the Bingbaekhwan was passed down to the small palace lord. The first palace lord decided and divided it that way. But the two gods are most effective when they are together..”

“……I'm asking for an ice cream pill.?”

When Baek Soo-ryong frowned and asked, Eun Hwi-ryeong shook his head..

“I have no right to ask for it. However, can you lend me it for a moment??”

Eunhwiryeong added the reason before Baek Soo-ryong asked..

“It's frustrating, but my martial arts skills are half as bad as those of Seol training..”

“…….”

Baek Su-ryong also guessed it..

That is why he showed the Shinwolbingbaekmu to Eunhwiryeong..

In the hope that she would gain at least a little insight before the fight begins..

“However, I really want to kill that traitor with my own hands. We will avenge our ancestors and establish the strict laws of the North Sea. I will declare that the lords of the blood religion will not dare to invade this land..”

Whiiing-

Eunhwiryeong’s short hair swayed in the flowing wind. I could feel the strong will in her eyes..

“……I understand. I'll lend it to you.”

Baek Soo-ryong released the Bing Baek Hwan and handed it to Eun Hwi-ryeong. She carefully fastened it to her wrist..

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

The Ice White God Sword and the Ice White Ring resonated, and a white energy like snow arose. For a moment, it seemed as if Eunhwiryeong’s whole body was covered in armor made of white frost..

The energy slowly sank into Eunhwiryeong’s body..

“Whoa whoa…….”

Eunhwiryeong, who had gathered his energy, calmed his breathing. And she looked at Baek Su-ryong with a strange gaze..

“And I want to ask one more thing.…….”

“I won't play oxbow.”

“Are you really not interested??”

Baek Soo-ryong flatly refused..

A small archer from the North Sea Ice Palace..

I couldn't handle the courage I had now..

“Please suggest it to your nephew later. I think it would suit him well..”

I was talking about women. However, Eunhwiryeong answered with a cold expression..

“Even if that child is really my nephew, if he is not up to the level, he cannot become a oxbow master..”

Baek Soo-ryong chuckled at the word “level.”.

If Eun Hwi-ryeong meets Yeo-min in the future, he will definitely be surprised..

“If you're talented, there's no need to worry. If it's limited to ice balls... … Because I'm better than you and me.”

“Are you serious??”

“of course. Who is it?.”

“Could you tell me a little more about that child??”

“I don't know much about my childhood. now… … Ah, I tend to spend a lot of money..”

“Also, money?”

As we talked, the sun was already setting..

Baek Soo-ryong got up from his seat..

“If I stay too long, Seolsu-ryeon might get suspicious, so I'll just leave now..”

“It's finally tomorrow.”

Eun Hwi-ryeong’s expression as he saw Baek Soo-ryong off was calm..

No matter what the outcome was, I had already made up my mind..

* * *

The day of the competition that will decide the fate of the North Sea Ice Palace has arrived..

Early in the morning, the door to the palace was opened..

The family elders gathered there one after another..

“Lord Taesanggung has arrived!”

At that word, most of the dancers who had come and sat down first stood up..

Ku-ung!

The door opened wide and Seol Su-ryun stepped inside..

I usually like flashy clothes, but today I really dressed up to the fullest..

Behind the Seol training, the senior masters of the Seol family followed, spreading out like wings. Everyone had bright eyes. The number was over thirty..

‘It seems like they came for a demonstration of force, not a debate..’

That is how great the power of the Seol family was. The energy given off by the warriors weighed heavily on the atmosphere inside the palace. It was a takedown..

Seol Su-ryun said after looking around..

“everyone please sit down.”

Arrogant words and actions that do not know who owns this place.

Eunhwiryeong's eyebrows twitched as he sat on the throne, but he didn't say anything..

At this place, more than half of the warriors of the Seol family and their following families were present..

It is no exaggeration to say that all the strongest warriors in the North Sea are gathered together..

“Seolryonghwi…….”

A soft voice full of life rang out..

Seolmugeol, the oxbow lord of the North Sea Ice Palace.

As it was an important event, I broke my long absence and attended this event..

Grumbling.

Seol Moo-geol's gaze was fixed on Seol Ryong-hui next to Seol Su-ryun..

Everyone gathered in the palace hall could feel Seol Moo-geol's life..

“It's an important position. Can't you take care of yourself?.”

“…….”

Seol Moo-geol bowed his head at Seol Soo-ryun’s cold words. However, it was clear that he was barely holding back his anger as he gritted his teeth..

“It looks like we're all here, so let's start the meeting..”

The meeting began with the declaration of Eunhwiryeong..

As expected, Seol Su-ryeon pushed the palace owner from the beginning..

“I won't talk too much. I told you last time that this was an ultimatum. If the main palace rejects the alliance, the blood religion will turn the main palace into an enemy as well..”

“Are you saying that the main palace is afraid of blood religion and has to form an alliance??”

“Palace owner. Face reality. The Blood Cult is a force that can fight the Central Plains alone. If we help, the odds of victory will become more certain, and we will gain fertile land in the central plains and countless riches. This means that our descendants will no longer have to grow up in this harsh environment..”

The quiet voice contained enormous energy that shook the ceiling..

Seol Soo-ryun quickly made a winning move..

“If the palace lord cannot make the right decision in the end, I will cooperate with the blood cult with only my family and those who follow me..”

“…….”

A threatening warning that the North Sea Ice Palace may split into two..

Seol Su-ryeon thought that Eun Hwi-ryeong would turn red with anger and shame at these words. He might get angry and pull out his sword..

Even so, I wouldn't dare swing it..

Since the North Sea is already under the control of the Xue family,.

All Eunhwiryeong could do was sit helplessly on the throne and accept defeat with an indignant look on his face..

‘Try your best to the end.’

however.

“……okay. I understand well what the former palace lord said..”

Why are you so calm??

Seol Su-ryeon was inwardly taken aback by the completely unexpected reaction..

‘Have you finally given up??’

I thought that might be the case. Eun Hwi-ryeong has nowhere to retreat anymore, so it would be best to quickly compromise with reality..

Although it was different from the personality of the Eun Hwi-ryeong he knew, that face was a face that had put everything aside..

At that time, Eunhwiryeong said.

“…… I would like to hear the opinions of young people who will lead the future of the main palace. What is the opinion of the former palace lord??”

“young people?”

As if they had made a promise, their eyes naturally turned to Seolryonghui. Seolmugeol saw that and gritted his teeth..

Seolryonghui naturally stepped forward and took the gun..

“Regarding the alliance between the main palace and the blood cult, if you will allow me, I would like to give you a few words of my opinion..”

Everyone's eyes were focused on him..

Polite yet confident attitude. Seol Su-ryun was very satisfied with that and laughed..

“okay. Young people’s opinions are also important. Please speak comfortably..”

“We must exterminate everything we see..”

sweet.

I heard the door being locked outside..

However, no one paid attention to it because of Seolryonghui's presence..

“……what?”

Not only Seol Soo-ryeon but also the elders of the Seol family tilted their heads at the incomprehensible words..

Seolryonghwi looked at them without any change in his expression and continued speaking..

“Sixty years ago, they kidnapped the lord of the North Sea Ice Palace and tortured him severely. Thirty-five years ago, they hid their identity and attacked the main palace and kidnapped children..”

“what are you saying…….”

Seol Soo-ryun looked at Seol Ryong-hwi with wide-open eyes..

Why is there a bitter sneer on the lips of the grandson who was believed to be the rock of the family?!

“And the accomplice in all of this is the former palace lord, Seol Su-ryeon right over there..”

“……What kind of crazy talk are you talking about?!”

Seol Su-ryun screamed. At the same time, a terrifying force rose from her body..

But she didn't notice.

While Seolryonghui was buying time with shocking words, the formation surrounding them was completed..

“Be patient with the leaders of the blood religion.!”

With a roar, Eunhwiryeong immediately attacked Seol Su-ryeon. White frost was left behind like a tail where the ice sword passed..

Damn it-!

With that as a signal, the warriors of the Beihai Ice Palace set out for Xuejia..

Cold air swirled and blades flew out. There was a lot of screaming and yelling. The blood froze in an instant. Gungjujeon quickly turned into chaos..

“Seolryonghwi-!”

Seolmugeol, whose white eyes turned black, rushed towards Seolryonghwi, the culprit of all this..

“I'll kill you!”

As if he had been waiting for this moment, black magic energy overflowed from his whole body..

“Mughal! stop!”

Seol Su-ryun shouted from behind, but Seol Moo-geol did not hear..

At that moment, all Seol Moo-geol could see was Seol Ryong-hui’s face..

‘Kill! The guy who dares to take my place!’

The demonic energy of the magician secretly cultivated even invaded the bone marrow. Due to the presence of Seolryonghui, he was unable to control his anger, and eventually lost his temper and went berserk..

“Hahahaha!”

Seol Moo-geol, who entrusted himself to the magic attack, rushed at Seol Ryong-hwi at incredible speed. It seemed to be twice as fast as before. My whole body was filled with a sense of omnipotence, as if I could do anything now..

“die-!”

The distance gets closer in an instant.

However, Seolryonghui just looked at Seolmugeol with indifferent eyes..

“This is also called Sogungju..”

He wasn't interested in things like Seol Mu-geol in the first place..

There's something disturbing on the way, so I'll just clean it up and pass by..

The two people's new forms intersected and the sword light flashed..

behindhand.

Fuwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Blood spurted from Seolmugeol’s neck. The headless body fell to the floor helplessly..
