In front of the Yongchun Group.
An emergency meeting was conducted because of the sudden appearance of over 1,500 people in thick fur. It was a situation where all the cult members were dispatched, thinking the people were enemies.
But they weren’t enemies. They were none other than the people of the North Sea Ice Palace and clan.
“Huh.”
Yongchun Group’s Chairman Chun Yu-jang was at a loss for words with the people who filled the entire front ground.
‘So many.’
Because the entire crowd came there and not just the heads of the palace or clan, there was bound to be a large crowd.
And there were so many people watching one place.
“Ooh! Lord!”
North Sea Ice clan’s Dan Cho-jin and his son Dan Cho-ja were in tears as they bowed their heads and looked at Chun Woo-jin.
“Please punish us for leaving our home and running away without telling you.”
Dan Cho-jin was weeping out loud. It was the same with Dan Cho-ja.
Chun Woo-jin held up by holding their shoulders and spoke in a heavy voice.
“It happened because I was lacking; how can I blame you all? Even if it was like this, I am glad I get to see you back.”
“Lord!”
All the executives looked at it with delighted faces. As a result, all the scattered people of the Sky Demon Order gathered at one place.
For 27 years, everyone waited for something like this to happen.
‘What is this! Why am I in tears!’
At first, Dan So-young was just watching them. However, she also began to cry after a few moments, so she bowed her head.
“This looks so good. Lord Chun Ma.”
Mun Ran-yeong was satisfied with the cult’s descendants all back in one place.
When she woke up from hibernation, she was distraught when she heard of the Sky Demon Order being collapsed.
“It would be great if this continues. Hehe.”
Hu Bong smiled with a nod. In any case, they too met after many hardships.
The joy of this moment could be the starting point of another history of the Sky Demon Order.
“Huh.”
Chun Yeowun was at the back and looked at them. He had no expression on his face, but they all knew he was feeling the same as them.
‘Is this all organized and well?’
Chun Yeowun felt like the task at hand was finished. He considered it to be fate that he fell into this time zone.
Maybe it was for him to help.
‘The remaining variable is MS Group?’
The Sky Demon order was no problem.
But the MS Group was something that his descendant might have done or created to bring Chun Yeowun back to the original timeline.
And only by solving that would he be able to reach an answer. As the people kept talking, Chun Yeowun moved.
“Huan Myung-oh.”
“Yes.”
At his call, Huan Myung-oh came out right away. At that, Chun Yeowun looked at the people of the North Sea Ice Palace and clan and said,
“Find a place for them to live.”
Huan Myung-oh took a deep breath and said,
“I obey the orders of Lord Chun Ma!”
As soon as the answer fell, the people of the North Sea Ice Palace and clan burst into cheers.
“Woahhhh!!!”
Not only them, but even the leaders of other clans too cheered for them.
“Thank you for showing such grace.”
“You are so considerate despite us not doing anything.”
They were worried about this part since they came here in a hurry. Because the Russian Defense Ministry soldiers had died, they rushed off because of the orders that were given to kill them.
Amid such cheers, Huan Myung-oh asked Chun Yeowun.
“My… my lord. But, has their identity and nationality issue been handled well?”
“Ah… right. Take care of that too.”
“Ah.”
Huan Myung-oh let out an empty catch and sigh. Not one, but he had to create a nationality change for nearly 1,500 people.
‘The merger hasn’t even been finished yet.’
Will he ever be able to get home on time? But what could he do?
Even if he weren’t an executive, he would still have to take the clan's responsibility till the end, as he was a proud member of the Sky Demon Order.
“Everyone, silence.”
A short word, but everyone went silent at once. As the place turned quiet, Chun Yeowun continued.
“I heard that the North Sea Ice Palace had been divided into factions for various problems.”
Dan Cho-jin, Dan Cho-ja, and the elders of the North Sea Ice Palace nodded their heads at those words.
Everyone knew that this issue would be discussed at what happened in Russia.
“From now on, the clan and Palace will be one. To be precise, in accordance with the cult’s system, the palace will be incorporated into the clan.”
‘Ahh.’
At that, the elders all sighed a little. They had foreseen this to some extent; this was because it was the moment that their history of the Palace would end when they returned to the Sky Demon Order.
‘Ancestors.’
They all felt sorry for their ancestors, but Chun Yeowun wasn’t done yet.
“And Dan Cho-ja!”
“Yes, Lord Chun Ma.”
When he was suddenly called out, he stepped out with a puzzled expression.
“I appoint you as the head of the unified North Sea Ice clan.”
‘!!!’
Everyone was shocked at it. Naturally, they all thought that Dan Cho-jin would be their leader.
However, Chun Yeowun appointed someone else.
“H-How can I…”
The surprise was short-lived. He was conscious of his father.
Even his daughter looked at her grandfather with worried eyes.
‘Will they two fight now?’
Contrary to their concerns, Chun Yeowun’s following words resolved it.
“Dan Cho-jin has worked hard as the supreme leader and will continue as an elder, so now you will fulfill your responsibility as a Senior Executive and Elder of the cult.”
“Ah!”
Traditionally, the leader and elder had the same roles. However, Chun Yeowun decided that Dan Cho-jin didn’t have the experience to lead the clan.
Instead, he considered it better to hand it over to his son, who was rational with his judgments.
“Why is there no answer?”
Pak!
The two men knelt at the same time and shouted.
“We follow the orders!”
After answering that, the father tried to relieve his son’s concern.
[Cho-ja.]
[Father]
[It's your time now. Your father will focus on the Sky Demon Order, so don’t worry and work for the clan.]
Hearing that, Dan Cho-ja was relieved. And felt gratitude towards Chun Yeowun, who recognized his true worth.
After the processing of the North Sea Ice clan, which returned into the Sky Demon Order, all the people were dispersed.
After they left, Chun Yeowun also went somewhere. Baekgi, Mun Ran-yeong, and Hu Bong were also about to go, but they stopped.
It was because someone approached them; it was Baek Jong-so, the current head of the Pure Kick clan.
“Oh, right on time.”
Hu Bong, who noticed him, called him.
“Jong-so!”
“Teacher!”
Hu Bong was a teacher of Jong-so by the orders of Chun Yeowun, and that shocked Baekgi.
“Who is teaching whom?”
Hu Bong frowned at the words and grunted.
“What? I teach well.”
At that, Mun Ran-yeong shook her head.
‘Ugh, they are back at it again.’
Of course, although Hu Bong was usually a funny person, it was hard to see him as a teacher with talent, especially as he was teaching Illusion Sword to Bi Mak-heon.
It was because Bi Mak-heon was quite skilled already. And teaching martial arts of the same form were taught to earn.
But that is different for Baek Jong-so. Hu Bong wasn’t a suitable teacher for him.
“Enough. Baekgi.”
“Yes?”
“Even so, I wanted to introduce him to you.”
At Mun Ran-yeong’s words, Baekgi looked at Baek Jong-so puzzled.
Mun Ran-yeong smiled and said.
“This friend is Baek Jong-so. He is the current leader of the Pure Kick clan.”
“Pure Kick clan?”
At those words, Baekgi’s expressionless face changed.
He did want to meet people of the clan in this era. Baek Jong-so, who didn’t seem to know about Baekgi, thought it was right to introduce and bowed his head.
“Baek Jong-so, the leader of Pure Kick clan.”
“Leader?”
Baek Jong-so frowned.
Seeing that this man was with Mun Ran-yeong, he thought that this man was of a high position and felt a bit uneasy.
‘Who is he?’
As Baek Jong-so was puzzled, Baekgi suddenly swung his foot towards him. At the sudden attack, Baek Jong-so crossed his arms to block the kick.
Pak!
“Kuak!”
Woong!
It looked like a light kick, but the moment he blocked it, his body flew 10 meters away. Due to the throbbing pain in the wrist, he couldn’t even move.
‘He is strong.’
A single blow yet the difference was clearly felt. The person in front of him was a warrior he couldn’t even compare with.
Baek Jong-so spoke when his pain subsided a little.
“Excuse me. Why are you suddenly…”
Shh!
At that moment, Baekgi who was far seemed to have moved since the form turned blurred. Baekgi was ready to slam this man down into the ground.
It was really simple, but the force could be felt.
“Shit!”
Flustered, Baek Jong-so hurriedly rotated his body and got up and used his feet. When their feet collided with each other, a pounding sound came out.
Pang!
Baek Jong-so’s supporting foot in the ground was pushed back and dug into the floor.
Push!
“Kuak!”
A groan escaped from Baek Jong-so’s mouth.
It felt like thousands of pounds were crushing him down. Baekgi spoke in an arrogant way.
“Now you are using your feet.”
“W-why are you doing his… kuak!”
At that time, Baekgi moved and aimed for Baek Jong-so’s chest.
Baek Jong-so was hit with a kick. Again, his body bounced back. He couldn’t even hold his form and rolled on the ground.
Thud!
“Euk!”
It took a long time for him to stabilize himself. At first he was disconcerted by the attack, but he was surprised by the kick which came in.
‘This is shocking. Were there any clans that used their feet other than the Pure Kick clan in our cult?’
He really thought this man was amazing. The simple yet strong movements were inspiring.
And then a voice said.
“Ha! What greatness in a thousand years.”
Before going into hibernation, Baekgi was told by his son that his clan would flourish well for a thousand years. However, coming here, he felt disappointed.
He didn’t know the clan would break down this badly. Instead of evolving, it seemed like the clan regressed.
‘Why is he so disappointed?’
Baek Jong-so couldn’t understand the man in front of him.
That was when Hu Bong spoke.
“To kick your descendent the moment you see them. Baekgi, seriously. Tch.”
“Descendant?”
Baek Jong-so was shocked at what he heard.
Come to think of it, there was a story he kept hearing whenever he had classes with Hu Bong or Mun Ran-yeong.
[If Baekgi was here, he would teach you right.]
[It might be better to ask your ancestor to teach you later.]
At that time, the story didn’t strike him. Baek Jong-so, who was shocked, didn’t know what to do.
“B-By any chance, Ancestor?”
Baekgi leaned back and spoke in a dissatisfied voice.
“Unfortunately, yes.”
‘!!!’
Baek Jong-so was startled at how Baekgi answered and fell flat on the floor.
‘How did this happen!’
He couldn’t stop his beating heart.
In front of him was Baekgi, the 14th Leader of the Pure Kick Clan, the legend of the clan!
