Chapter 244: Culprit (4)
That was the answer Chun Inji gave to Chun Yujongs question on why he was chosen. It was curious as Chun Inji specifically said danger, but Chun Inji did not go into detail. After exining many things that the Lord should know and do, Chun Inji asked Chun Yujong.
The throne is not only power. It is a responsibility. You now bear the lives of 100 thousand cultists on your back. Ease your anger inside of you and think only for the future of the cult.
I understand.
Chun Yujong then swore an oath at the altar that he would serve his entire life to the cult. And with that, Chun Yujong became the Lord, and to keep the promise, he eased his anger. But the anger that already had ced within his heart didnt die out that easily. He took in wives from the six ns as a tradition but he couldnt love any of them.
I have to be strong.
The Lord Chun Yujongrgely lived in two ways. When he was done with his official duty as a Lord, he spent all of his time training martial arts. Chun Yujong was appointed as the Lord without any preparations, so he was weaker than the other elders and had to be protected by Great Guardian Marakim. Chun Yujong tried hard to train his martial arts. Thats when a change came into his life.
Oh no my Lord, howe you always mess up your clothes like that?
Everytime when he came out of training, a female servant greeted him with a sad look as she looked at Lords clothing that had turned to rags. He first thought she was amusing and exchanged a few words, and soon it evolved into almost a full day of conversation.
Wow. You didnt mess up your clothes today!
You always me me for messing up my clothes, so I took it off before I trained. Hwa Yun.
Okay, okay. Thank you so much for your generosity. Happy?
HMPH! How dare you.
Are you angry at me?
Uh- uh
Conversations filled with jokes andughter was something Chun Yujong had not experienced in his entire life. It was warm and happy. Chun Yujong fell in love with the woman who always smiled at him. Her every word and smile was like a bright sun light to Chun Yujong. After a few months, she was pregnant with Chun Yujongs baby and Chun Yujong proposed to marry her. Hwa Yun cried and said that it was against thew of the cult and that she would leave, but Chun Yujong did not allow her.
No I will protect you and my baby.
He couldnt leave his only hope and love. Chun Yujong opened a Great Meeting and dered that she was pregnant with his baby and pressed on with the marriage. All six ns rose up against it stronger than ever. It was so severe that Great High Lord, who was in his closed room training, had toe out temporarily to put a stop to it. And after all thatmotion, Chun Yujong was able to marry her but she had to stay outside the Lords pce.
However, Chun Yujong was always happy when he went to Hwa Yuns house outside the pce. Chun Yujong hoped this happiness wouldst forever. And with Chun Yujongs attention fully being given to a female servant and her baby, jealousy and hatred began to arise from the wives of the six ns.
Who is doing such a thing?
And there had been bad things happening near Hwa Yuns house. It was getting worse and worse so Lord appointed guard warriors and tried to protect Hwa Yun in all ways.
After a while, the Great High Lord who had left his closed room training suddenly went missing. Chun Yujong dispatched people to find him, but he was nowhere to be found. Adding to this problem, Power King Hang Yen took his forces of evil and invaded cult territory. The cult tried hard to keep Chun Inji missing as a secret but it seemed like the forces of evil somehow found out and attacked. The warsted over six months. And during those times, Hwa Yun became sick and didnt get well.
My Lord, dont worry about me. I will be fine.
Chun Yujong was worried about Hwa Yun, but he had to go. Power King Hang Yen himself was at the warfront and killed two elders and even Chun Yujing, so the Lord himself had to go and fight him.
I I will return as fast as I can.
Yes I will wait for you.
Even in her sick bed, Hwa Yun smiled at Chun Yujong. And that was thest smile Chun Yujong saw.
Lord Chun Yujong led a huge army of the Demonic Cult and fought Power King Hang Yens forces in the battle of the Sawon ins. Chun Yujong then fought Hang Yen on one on one fight.
Hahahahaha! To think man such as you is the Lord! You are just a kidpared to Chun Inji!
Chun Yujong was at the end stage of superior master level, but Power King Hang Yen was at the entry to supreme master level warrior level. Even though Chun Yujong was talented, hecked power so he couldnt win.
No if I lose, the cult Hwa Yun will
