He only thought his enemies were the six clans, so it was hard to believe that the Lord had ordered this. He was also frustrated that he didn’t know what was going on outside. If they were arrested like this, it was likely that sothing happened to the other elders who sided with Chun Yeowun.
‘The Crown Prince might be in danger.’
That concern also was shared by Right Guardian Subng. Subng had lost an eye and had taken internal damage that made him stay at ho to ditate, but he was arrested nonetheless so he was certain that sothing wasn’t going right.
‘Whew.. whew…’
Subng spent four hours focusing on his energy to pull out the giant needle stuck in his body that sealed his blood point.
‘Again…!’
Subng focused on the blood point with all of his might. But it wasn’t easy. After failing another attempt, Subng let out a large sigh and panted.
“Aaaaaah… hu…”
“What? What are you doing?”
A palace guard found this out and shouted as he tapped on the iron bar. Lee Hang knew Subng was trying to pull out the needle already, so he shouted loudly, “You call yourself a Guardian when you can’t even stay quiet while being tied down?”
“What? Ugh… hah… you red haired idiot. Think where we are before picking a fight with .”
“Just go to sleep if you can’t stay still.”
“You!”
Subng understood what Lee Hang was trying to do, so he played along. With two of them arguing, the palace guard sighed and turned away. He had seen the two Guardians arguing with each other ever since they were imprisoned so he didn’t think it was anything strange.
“Whew.”
Lee Hang sighed in relief.
‘Try to be careful, you fool.’
It was good that Subng was trying, but he kept on making mistakes that made Lee Hang beco afraid. But he was also astounded by Subng’s persistent tries. Lee Hang tried few tis before he gave up, but Subng was trying hard to the end.
‘I should try it again.’
It was then that he heard a small whistling sound from outside the prison. The palace guards then grinned as if they were waiting for that signal and pulled out their swords.
“W-what? Wait… what are you-!”
Subng shouted frantically as he saw these warriors readying to strike. It seed they were going to kill them. One of them tried to open the cell door. Lee Hang realized he shouldn’t stay still and tried to at least get him out from the rope, but it was no use. His internal energy was sealed so he couldn’t use any energy.
“Ugh!”
He regretted that he had not tried harder. Even if it was an order made by the Lord, he thought he should have tried to get the seal out. And it was when the cell door was almost unlocked.
“W-who are you!”
A large bodied man burst into the underground floor and charged toward the prison guards. The man moved quickly and struck his fist wielding blue force qi into the guards.
“Argh!”
The power strike threw the prison guard away to the prison wall. Lee Hang beca dumbfounded when he saw the large man with a long beard.
“Ko Wanghur?”
The man was Ko Wanghur. Palace guards tried to attack Ko Wanghur when another man jumped in and kicked them. It was Bakgi. Bakgi stord in upon them to push the guards away. His kicks were too fast for the palace guards who swung their swords in the small prison corridor and they couldn’t react to it.
“S-since when-?”
“We were waiting for a while now. Hah!”
“Argh!”
Ko Wanghur and Bakgi quickly overpowered the palace guards. And with two of them arriving at the right mont, the two Guardians sighed in relief as they were saved.
“Do you not see what it ans for the elders of the three clans to help ?”
“What?”
Yi Burwi beca surprised. The Lord had sent Yeowun’s mbers to be appointed at the groups owned by the four clans purposely. This removed Yeowun’s mbers to be out of the picture. But with four clans siding with Yeowun now, then it ant his mbers were free to move.
“Do you think I would leave the two Guardians without any help?”
“N-no! You’re just bluffing!”
“Well, you can believe what you want.”
Yeowun spoke casually and Yi Burwi beca shocked. If Yeowun really sent his mbers to the prison, then Yi Burwi failed with every plan that he made.
“You should be worried about yourself.”
“Ugh… YOU!!!”
‘I have no choice.’
Yi Burwi then made a choice. The reason he was left alive was because Yeowun was thinking about finding out who Yi Burwi was working for. He still had the Blood God’s Reversion Art activated, so Yi Burwi decided to kill himself by increasing the reverse flow even more.
“HAH!”
Yi Burwi focused on the energy and his body began to expand more, as if it would explode.
“Hahaha! It’s no use! My Blood God’s Reversion Art changes all blood points so you won’t block from doing this!”
This was why Yeowun couldn’t stop Yi Burwi from using Blood God’s Reversion Art. Yi Burwi did not want to die, but it was better to die than to survive and suffer from torture.
His body had expanded twice as large and veins popped up all over his face, making him look disgusting. Yi Burwi then spoke while holding on to his sickness coming up from inside.
“Ugh… don’t be too excited that you’ve won here. Our clan’s power reaches not only to the Demonic Cult, but beyond… ugh!”
But Yeowun wasn’t focusing on him. Yeowun’s hand passed through Yi Burwi’s face, and Yi Burwi noticed so kind of faint light. Yeowun then quickly swept through his body, unclear as to what he was trying to do.
“Ugh.. I don’t know what… ugh… you are trying to do… but- Ugh. Nothing will work…!”
Yeowun then placed his palm below Yi Burwi’s right ear and placed his right palm over Yi Burwi’s chest. Yi Burwi beca shocked and tried to speak.
“What are you trying to… Gaaagagagagagagaga!”
With electricity coming through his body, Yi Burwi trembled and scread. The electric shock made him feel like his entire body was twisted. It was so painful that Yi Burwi scread before he passed out. But he didn’t stay that way for long.
“ARGH!”
Yi Burwi woke up from the pain coming from his cheek.
“W-what? Why am I…?!”
He didn’t die. His body should have exploded after all his veins expanded beyond limits, but his body turned back to normal, just like when Chun Yujong was stopped from going mad. Yeowun then scoffed at Yi Burwi and spoke.
“That worked, didn’t it? So, let’s talk about your clan now.”
‘…D-dammit!’
