Chapter: 896

He nodded in agreement.

[It seems like His Majesty wants us to show our capabilities.]

Peng-gyu could show his skills, but it was much better for Yeon Buso, who was stronger than him to do so.

In order to fulfill Great Leader Yi Mok’s order and to satisfy the Emperor, they had to show overwhelming force. However, the task they’d been given wasn’t easy.

That was when the emperor opened his mouth.

“Can’t do it?”

His subtle look of disappointment was clearly visible from afar.

Yeon Buso was wrapping his head around the concept of victory.

‘This man is quite clever. It was never my intention to showcase a power which could instil fear in the Emperor’s mind. Is this an opportunity given by the Emperor?’

Yeon Buso strongly believed that he and Chun Yeowun, the Lord of Demonic Cult, must have some fated relationship.

In the future, if he became the Great leader of Yulin and led his faction, he would be known as a warrior who had competed for the sake of Yulin in the Emperor’s eyes.

‘I cannot lose to him.’

Pak!

Yeon Buso placed his hands together and said.

“Of course we can, Your Majesty! However, I will show you something different, because my pride doesn’t let me copy someone else’s performance.”

“Something different?”

Yeon Buso looked at the Emperor who was puzzled.

That was when swords hidden in the belts of the three eunuchs nearby got pulled out.

Srrrrng!

“Ugh! How-how did my sword...?”

“My sword!”

The three eunuchs couldn’t hide their embarrassment when their swords got pulled out.

No matter how skilled the man from Yulin was, they should have felt at least some kind of energy around them.

Float!

“Ugh!”

The Emperor’s eyes lit up.

The three swords floating in the air moved as if they were alive.

Among the eunuchs, the three people who’d lost their swords were shocked.

“Air Sword!”

Air Sword.
