Chapter: 874

Everyone was puzzled by the serious attitude of Elder Cheong-su.

Most of them thought that the report was done.

However, Elder Cheong-su was still holding back something important.

The things which had happened after dealing with the Blade God Six Martial clan members, and taking down Admiral Lim and crown prince Zhu Taiyoon.

“Looks like Elder hasn’t talked about the main point yet. I hope the leaders here will listen to him for a moment.”

The man seated at the head of the table spoke.

Strangely, even with his eyes closed, the man was radiating a noble vibe.

This man, who looked like a civil servant of the Imperial Palace, was the Great Leader of the Forces of Justice, and one of Wulin’s Five Strongest Warriors, Yi Mok.

“Hmm, as said, we should let the Elder complete his report.”

As the crowd grew silent, Elder Cheong-su began speaking about what happened next.

People’s surprised reactions grew gradually into serious expressions.

“Is that true? Ugh... The emperor’s Guardian Escort, Lim Gyu-hwa.”

Lim Gyu-hwa, the Wave Sword.

At one time, more than ninety years ago, he’d been one of the Five Strongest Warriors and had been called the Sword Emperor.

There was no way that the people of Wulin wouldn’t know his name.

It was shocking enough to believe that he was alive, and even more shocking that he’d been working for the imperial palace.

But what was even more surprising was.

“WH-What did you say?”

“The Lord of the Demonic Cult killed him? With only three strikes?”

It was hard to believe.

He was an excellent swordsman.

The words which came out of Elder Cheong-su’s mouth were shocking, the leaders present couldn’t understand what they’d just heard.

As far as they knew, the Lord Chun Yeowun was just a kid who was still growing.

They’d heard that he was highly skilled, strong enough to make people bow before him and that he could be considered one of the strongest.

“Even if he was a skilled swordsman, to be alive till now means that he must have reached the peak right?”

“Uh, yes. He must be extremely skilled with all the experience he gathered, but to lose to the Lord of the Demonic...”

“God. In the past, I saw Lord Chun Yeowun within the Demonic Cult, but he wasn’t strong enough to be compared to the Five Strongest Warriors at that time. Could it be that Elder Cheong-su has made a mistake?”

People were reluctant to accept such unbelievable words.

They couldn’t accept that Chun Yeowun could do that. Besides, the only person who could vouch for Chun Yeowun’s skills was Elder Cheong-su.

‘What did he see to make him tremble like that?’
