‘Fake Sky Demon Sword? This woman must have lost it!’
Baek Jong-so was so confused at Huan Xia’s words.
Baek Jong-so, who considered it an insult to Chun Yeowun, shouted at her, at the woman who couldn’t recognize the real sword at once as he did.
“Fake Sky Demon Sword! What rude words are you spouting!”
Despite his urging, Huan Xia didn’t lose her ground and spoke.
“Baek Jong-so, no, clan leader Baek. You are being deceived. I don’t know who that person is, but that sword is definitely a fake!”
“Do you even understand what nonsense you are spouting? I know who this…”
“Enough.”
Chun Yeowun cut his words.
Baek Jong-so wanted to yell at her in anger, but Chun Yeowun stopped him.
Seeing his cold eyes, he knew that the man wasn’t pleased with the situation.
Chun Yeowun walked towards her.
“D-don’t you dare come closer.”
Huan Xia took a step back.
She had just witnessed Chun Yeowun’s strength with her own eyes, so she was aware of the huge difference between them.
“You need to learn to take responsibility for your words.”
Chun Yeowun pretended to lift something with his hand.
The body of the woman, who tried to step back, floated in the air.
“Ahhh!”
She tried to raise her energy, but nothing helped her.
In two steps, Chun Yeowun was right in front of her.
“Hmp!”
Terrified, she closed her eyes.
Until she heard Chun Yeowun’s voice.
“Why did you say that my sword is fake?”
“Huh?”
She, who thought that the man would harm her, opened her eyes.
“I asked you why you said my sword is a fake.”
Chun Yeowun didn’t like hearing it.
He thought that despite being a member of the cult, the woman wasn’t aware of the Sky Demon Sword.
Judging from her appearance, the woman seemed to be in her late twenties.
Considering the period in which the Sky Demon Order was dissolved, she might not know about the real sword.
But the answer she gave was unexpected.
“I-Isn’t that obvious? The Sky Demon Sword is now in the hands of the executive director Chun Woo-kyung. How could you try this with me? You must be on the side of director Chun Yu-seong, right?”
“What?”
Chun Yeowun couldn’t understand it.
‘Chun Woo-kyung was holding the Sky Demon Sword?’
Even Baek jong-so, who was glaring at the woman, couldn’t hide his confusion.
At first, it was thought that she wasn’t aware of the sword and acted as such.
However, when they heard that the Sky Demon Sword was found, he couldn’t understand it.
“I don’t know a lot because they don’t let information pass, but we know… ugh.”
Huan Xia couldn’t move her lips.
Her lips trembled, but they couldn’t be moved, as if someone shut them.
“Successor of the Ghost Illusion Clan, from now on, you only answer when I ask. Do you understand?”
‘W-what pressure…’
Huan Xia’s eyes trembled in fear.
Chun Yeowun’s power was suppressing her.
It was like being a prey in front of a tiger.
“About these factions, which one are you supporting?”
He asked her with a cold voice.
Huan Xia, who was shaking, spoke.
“I need to move my jaw… to speak.”
“if you spout on more useless things, I will pull your tongue out.”
“Hik! H-how can you say such things to a woman… ahhh!”
Keuk!
Her tongue was forcibly being pulled out.
The pain spread to her throat where her tongue was connected. She then believed that Chun Yeowun wasn’t just threatening her, but serious about every single word he’d uttered.
“It doesn’t matter if you are a woman.”
His eyes were proving it…
Normal men would be shaken by a helpless woman, especially if the woman was a beauty, but Chun yeowun’s eyes were cold.
‘He is really going to pull it out.’
Gulp!
She was slowly getting terrified.
She was too scared.
“Speak.”
At some point, he was going to run out of patience and actually do what he said.
Huan Xia spoke with tears in her eyes.
“W-We the Ghost Illusion Clan, support Chun Yu-jang.”
And the side they chose was revealed.
The second son.
“You said that Chun Woo-kyung possessed the Sky Demon Sword. How does a different faction know about it?”
Chun Yeowun was more curious about the Sky Demon Sword than the factions.
The future in which he shouldn’t exist.
Since the sword was never actually passed down, he wanted to know who was responsible for spreading the rumors about possessing the Sky Demon Sword.
“W-we were sent a video by the spy we planted…”
“Video?”
“it is in my smartphone.”
When she tried to reach out, Chun yeowun reached out his hand, and the smartphone around her wrist was pulled into his hand.
She spoke in urgency.
“You need a password to open it.”
A pin had to be pressed for the phone to unlock.
After the pin, there was an iris recognition that should be done. But she didn’t speak about it.
“The pin is … huh?”
Tch!
However, as Chun Yeowun’s hand touched the screen, the pin was automatically written.
‘Wh-what did he do…’
Even a professional hacker wouldn’t be able to do it without a computer.
But this man did it by holding the phone. It was ridiculous to look at.
The automatic format function would be initiated if the iris didn’t match, but then the video began to play.
‘No way!’
Click!
The screen on the phone showed a seminar room that could hold a large number of people.
As the video was taken secretly, it shook a lot.
— Bring it.
In the video, a man standing on the podium in his mid-sixties gave an order, and four men dragged a wheeled table.
A black cloth was over it.
— The members of the cult who believed and followed me. Today you will see the revelation of the Demon God.
— Woaw! Chun Ma! Chun Ma!
People in the video cheered and raised their hands.
“Is that one Chun Woo-kyung?”
“Y-yes.”
Huan Xia quickly answered Chun Yeowun’s question.
Shhh!
Chun Woo-kyung made a gesture to silence the audience.
Once he gathered everyone’s attention, he took off the black cloth on it.
And on the wall of the room, the beam project was showing the contents on the table. Shockingly, it was the Sky Demon Sword and White Dragon Blade.
“haa!”
Chun Yeowun was thrilled.
He wasn’t sure who made it, but if only the appearance was to be considered, the difference would be unknown.
In the video, Chun Woo-kyung pointed to the screen behind him.
And something came up.
The excavation site, old bone fossil-like fragments around, and both swords were found with the jade plate.
The image was enlarged on the jade plate.
[Sky Demon Order’s 24th Lord Chun Yeowun]
The jade plate had the exact same phrase as the one Chun Yeowun currently had.
And the same seal of the Chun Ma on it.
Rather, the plate in the video was made to look old, as it was more genuine.
‘Is he now replicating my plate too?’
Chun Yeowun’s eyes were turning angrier and angrier.
In the video, the man went close to the screen.
— You saw it. The executive director has found the lost history of our cult.
— Chun Ma! Chun Ma!
— Do you know what this means?
With those words, the man raised the Sky Demon Sword and the White Dragon Blade and shouted.
— It means that the Demon God has chosen me to be the next Chun Ma!
— Woah! A new Chun Ma is born!
Everyone in that room seemed to be insanely excited.
The shaking video ended, even the person who filmed it seemed surprised.
— Damn it!
The video even recorded the cursing the man kept giving.
Crack!
As soon as the video ended, the phone cracked.
‘M-my phone!’
Huan Xia looked at the cracked phone.
Fortunately, it wasn’t entirely cracked.
Chun Yeowun, who stayed silent, opened his mouth as his voice clearly showed anger.
“Doesn’t matter.”
Chun Yeowun has decided.
It was pathetic to have internal conflict, but even more when people were making fake claims by replicating his swords.
“Are the three factions aware of this video?”
“ah, the higher ups seemed to know.”
“Higher ups?”
“If this information was released everywhere, then normal members of the cult will be shaken.”
“Huh!”
Chun Yeowun snorted at her words.
The influence the name Chun Ma had on the members was absolute.
In terms of legitimacy, the eldest son would be right, but if the title of Chun Ma was brought into play, then it didn’t matter.
It was natural that the clan leaders didn’t want this information going out.
“This was exposed on purpose.”
“Huh?”
“This was released on purpose to get people to see this.”
Chun Yeowun knew that the video was intentionally exposed.
No matter how good the spy was, it was a high probability that he wanted this to happen and brought in too many people to the room.
‘Father said the same thing too…’
Huan Xia was shocked.
Her father, the clan leader of Ghost Illusion clan, was of the same opinion.
Actually, she didn’t have the right to access the information as well, but Chun Yu-jang, the faction she supported, had let her know.
They didn’t want their people to be shaken by what the executive director was saying.
“Lord Chun Ma.”
Baek Jong-so called him, worried.
He didn’t fall for the video as he saw the absolute power of Chun Yeowun.
But his anger and disappointment were growing.
‘After seeing that video, you’re still calling him Lord Chun Ma?’
Huan Xia thought.
At her father’s order, she kept an eye on Baek Jong-so, the clan leader of Pure Kick clan, to bring him into the Chun Yu-jang faction.
She couldn’t understand why the person who stayed away from these matters was showing such loyalty to this man.
‘If I stay here, all the information will be taken.’
But the person in front of her was a monster.
And he was holding her down, so how could she escape…
‘Ah!’
At that moment, something flashed through her mind.
The words of her father, Huan Myung-oh.
[There is no chance of encountering a strong warrior, but just in case, there is one way that the members of the higher clans use.]
She didn’t use it till now, so she forgot it.
Thinking back, she began to release the hidden power in her dantian.
Goooo!
Black haze rose from her body as her hidden power was revealed.
It was gloomy and dark.
At that moment, Huan Xia’s body, which had been suppressed by energy, didn’t feel restricted.
Pak!
‘Success!’
She didn’t think that it would actually work.
Only the clan leaders and the higher people in the clans inherited this demonic energy for generations.
The demonic energy was different from normal energy. It was based on destructive energy, so it expelled other forms of energy.
‘I need to get out of here!’
Phat!
Without thinking, she tried to move away.
But she took only three steps.
“Kneel down.”
Thud!
“Kyak!”
A voice ordered her, and she fell.
She fell so bad that her knees were bleeding.
‘What the hell!’
She couldn’t understand it.
The moment the voice was heard, her body obeyed the command.
It was done voluntarily.
‘I need to get up! Get up! Get up!’
She tried her best to use the demonic energy, but nothing happened.
On the contrary, the demonic energy in her body made her feel uncomfortable.
Chun Yeowun, who approached her, said.
“How stupid. Ghost Illusion clan…”
“H-How…”
“Demonic energy… Even after I disappeared, the command was followed well.”
“What are you?”
“Who do you think has passed down that demonic energy?”
Wooong!
At that moment, an energy that transcended one’s imagination soared from Chun Yeowun’s body.
It was as close to an abyss that encroached on everything.
“Ugh!”
Huan Xia began to feel suffocated at the energy soaring around.
“Any kind of demonic energy has no choice but to succumb in front of the Sky Demon Energy.”
“Sky, Sky Demon Energy?”
She heard about it.
It was said that it was the power that the second generation Chun Ma had created.
‘It can’t be! I never heard of any clan that could master the Sky Demon energy…’
Her mind denied it, but not the body.
She could feel the demonic energy in her body getting terrified.
“W-who are you?”
Shh!
Chun Yeowun met her eyes and said.
“I’m the one you call ancestor and Lord, I possess the title of Second generation Chun Ma, I’m the Demon God you should worship.”
