Chapter: 791

The condition stated that they could take it only if they could separate the core and the Blood from the Qilin’s body.

“Waah, they acted so cheap!”

Hu Bong, who’d been listening to the story, grumbled.

Hundreds of Masters and even the Great Lord had tried their best to do it, but it had all been in vain.

The problem was actually the core, and the Qilin’s Blood which burned with the flames of the Qilin’s body. The flames were so strong that they couldn’t be touched, there was no way that the Demonic Cult could separate them.

“The Great Lord tried many ways to separate them, but there was no way to cool the blazing Qilin’s flame, the blood or its core.”

Realizing that nothing else could be done, the Great Lord made a suggestion.

Since the Qilin’s Blood was now owned by the Demonic Cult, he said that it had to be protected by them until they found a way to separate it.

He had no intention of letting the Qilin’s Blood fall into the hands of the rest of Wulin.

“He had thus succeeded in preventing the Core from falling into the others’ hands, but the Emperor had added another condition.”

The Emperor stated that if warriors of Demonic Cult wanted to stay in the tomb of Qilin, they had to defend the Imperial Palace and pledge allegiance to the successive Emperors.

“There were a total of 12 Cult masters, including me, who stayed behind in this tomb because of that condition.”

Ran-yeong had come to the tomb along with 11 others.

All of them had been high ranking warriors who had great positions in the Demonic Cult.

“Hah?”

Hu Bong’s eyes widened whilst looking at a nameplate she displayed.

On it, a master’s name had been written.

“Mun Ran-yeong, Clan head of the Dragon Fist Clan?”

Hu Bong’s words had also attracted the attention of Chun Yeowun.

It was unrecognizable since her use of energy was different, but Chun Yeowun couldn’t shake off the feeling that her moves had felt similar to the martial arts of the Dragon Fist Clan.

“... Dragon Fist Clan?”

If it was the Dragon Fist Clan, then she belonged to Mun Ku and Mun Yu’s clan.

“Ugh! Well then, wouldn’t you be the great-grandmother of Mun Ku?”

Whilst Hu Bong was surprised, Ran-yeong was puzzled.

After leaving the cult to protect the Qilin’s Blood, she had lived in the Imperial palace for a hundred and ninety years, and had no understanding of the current situation of the clan.

‘Elder Mun and Mun Ku will be very surprised.’

Like Hu Bong had said, their ancestors had managed to survive for such a long time.

Even though they were related, the relationship would be awkward in the beginning.

“... what about the others?”

“They turned into the ashes of sanctification.”
