Chapter: 710

Yeongwol, the leader of the Imperial Palace Guardians, couldn’t share the same ideas and thoughts regarding the Wulin. From her point of view, they would only judge the entire situation as the Wulin clans acting rudely towards the Imperial Palace and the family.

“I knew that the Wulin too had to be brought under the control of the Emperor.”

Moreover, she was someone who was loyal and in support of the Imperial Palace. The hostility she showed was understandable.

‘She has to be knocked down.’

Persuading her didn’t seem to be helping. It looked like it would be more efficient to suppress all the court ladies of the Imperial Palace Guardians.

“Well, there is nothing more that I can do. I tried to warn you.”

With those words, Chun Yeowun began to take slow strides towards Yeongwol, who flicked her finger and said.

Snap!

“Forget about the fame and titles you were given in the Wulin. This is the Imperial Palace. Throw away the illusion that you’ll be able to leave from a place filled with Guardian warriors.”

Swwosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The court ladies began to gather at the snap of her finger.

Due to the numerous battles that transpired in the courtyard, their number had decreased by a lot, but more than 50 of them still survived.

Two of the inspection maids, who overpowered those beastly men also walked towards her with stained swords dripping with blood. The fact that these women vanquished those men who used Blood Reversion meant that they were extremely skilled.

Hweeing!

The sleeves of Yeongwol burned with the flames. Ashes formed where her sleeves previously touched revealing red scales. Like a shield, the red haze began to wrap around her arms and legs.

“It will be different from before. This time, make sure to be on guard. Oh, arrogant and cheeky Wulin warrior. You will have to fall alone.”

With a numerical advantage on their side, Yeongwol couldn’t help but feel confident. She judged Chun Yeowun as someone who was equal to her in terms of power, but with her subordinates by her side, she was sure that the intruder could be taken down.

But it was strange. Despite being alone, Chun Yeowun didn’t seem afraid. Rather, he muttered unexpected words.

“Alone...”

“What are you talking about?”

At Chun Yeowun’s words, Yeongwol couldn’t help but ask.

“Who told you I was alone in this?”

“What was that?”

It was then,

From the eastern wall and the roof of the main hall of the Guest House, three humans dressed in full black appeared. Yeongwol couldn’t help going stiff at the sight of the people whose energy couldn’t even be felt by her!

‘He wasn’t alone?’

Looking up, she saw one man dressed in a junior officer’s uniform, his face was full of scars. The moment she tried to look at other’s face:

Slash!

The other one disappeared in an instant. She tried to move her gaze to find out where the other was positioned, but it seemed like her naked eyes weren’t of much help. Giving up on her sight, she concentrated on hearing his movement. The sound she heard made it felt like the entire court ladies were surrounded by an unknown force.

‘Unbelievable? How could I miss an enemy’s presence?’
