Chapter 72 — Dropped into Murim with an Instant Kill Skill

Chapter 72

A contingent of two hundred martial artists, led by Yi Yu-baek and Yeon So-wol, arrives at Eunpyeong County's northern gate, initially alarming local guards until Yeon So-wol produces official writs from Governor-General Seo Myeong-eum. The magistrate quickly convenes the leaders of the rival Mujin Sect and Baekha Sect. Upon learning that the Guangdong Martial Alliance offers significant profits through Heavenly Road Mountain logistics backed by official authority, the sect leaders engage in a bidding war for admission fees, ultimately joining the Alliance to ensure their faction's survival against extinction. With Eunpyeong secured, the group splits into five routes toward Naryong County. Yeon So-wol, assigned a northern route with twenty-nine members including Noh Huideok, travels smoothly, enjoying hospitality and local admiration for his heroic deeds, including beheading Yong U-seok and his role in founding the Alliance. During the journey, Yeon So-wol questions the members about their motivations for joining the Jianghu, receiving a unified answer about seeking freedom and wealth. Noh Huideok introduces the Demon-Severing Sword, a gift from Seo Myeong-eum, explaining its capability to repel true demons rather than mere human criminals. Noh Huideok defines demons as non-human entities, contrasting them with the Black Path or Demonic Sect. Upon this revelation, the Demon-Severing Sword vibrates violently, signaling an imminent threat. Yeon So-wol and the group halt and prepare for battle. Yeon So-wol draws the sword, which hums loudly, and suddenly perceives a crouching figure in a light yellow robe with dangling ornaments who speaks a cold voice, identifying Yeon So-wol and claiming he can smell him. The chapter ends with the stranger revealing crescent-moon eyes and addressing Yeon So-wol directly.
