Chapter: 1024

“If that is the case, then I must be from the North Sea Ice Palace too, right?”

“...”

Asking something like that, left the man speechless.

Baekhyun, who was dumbfounded for a moment, opened his mouth while stuttering.

“H-how... do you have so much Yin energy?”

“Is that important? I don’t think that showing your identity to prove that you were from the North Sea Ice Palace was such a tough thing.”

Baekhyun was embarrassed.

In the beginning, he did seem suspicious.

He came in with the identity slate of the former Lord, so it was very hard to believe that it wasn’t a trap. Especially from the Lord of the Demonic Cult‘s perspective. It seemed like Baekhyun was trying to isolate him.

“Lord, isn’t there an easier way than to do all of this?”

Hu Bong asked with a sneaky smile.

He knew that Chun Yeowun had something he liked using to clearly tell if someone was lying or not.

Seeing that uneasy smile, Baekhyun spoke out.

“Wait a minute! You must know this right? Those who have mastered the martials arts in the main palace have silver hair due to the influence of the internal energy in their body.”

“... your hair is black.”

It had a faint in it grey, but still, it was of black color.

“It is because I still haven’t mastered it yet. However, if the 5th level could be reached out of the 8 levels, silver hair will start to appear once one uses cold energy.”

At those words, Chun Yeowun looked at Great Guardian Marakim.

However, even Marakim, who was the most aware of martial arts, shook his head as if he wasn’t familiar with it.

The North Sea Ice Palace had practically little to no interaction with people of Jianghu, except for the incident that happened many years ago.

And with the Demonic Cult being in the south of the Yellow River, there was no chance of them encountering or interacting with the people of the north, so it was practically impossible to know the details of the Cold energy, the techniques or the martial levels they used.

Elder Huan Yi, who was the type to gather information, might have known about this.

At that time, Marakim remembered a person who knew about this.

“Maybe Wang Jing might know.”

“Ah... that could be.”

Chun Yeowun nodded as if it felt reasonable.

Martial Dual Sword Wang Jing was living in secret after he became one of the five strongest warriors of Wulin, right after annihilating the pirates.

And 30 years ago, Wang Jing was a member of the Wulin, so he could know about it.

“Hu Bong. Bring Wang Jing.”

“Yes, my Lord.”
