## Summary

The children approaching the Northern Heavenly Sect were Shim Won-Lee(Age 19), son of Shim Mu-Wae also known by his epithet Crimson King's Demonic Might, a member of the Nine Skies and Deceitful Heavens. Shim Mu-Wae's daughter, Shim Soo-Ah(Age 14) and the granddaughter of Nine Skies member, Seo-Moon Hwa, Seo-Moon Hye Ryung(Age 20).

A big convoy of people led by these three kids approach the Sect and stop outside the gate. A general of the Deceitful Heavens, Mok Eun-Pyeong wonders if anyone is present in the Sect. The gate to the Sect opens and Jang Pae-San, Seo Mu-Sang and another member of the Third Mercenary Group come out and welcome the convoy. The three people bow down and show their respects to the general and the convoy. Jang Pae-San introduces himself and tells his position as the Captain of the Central Heavenly Alliance's Third Mercenary Group. Mok Eun-Pyeong asks if they have prepared rooms for the convoy.

Jang Pae-San says that he has personally prepared the rooms for them and addresses them as lords. He says that it must have been a long and difficult journey and asks their permission to escort them to their rooms.

All this while, the three members of the Third Mercenary Group are bowing out of respect and as Jang Pae-San is speaking, Seo Mu-Sang notices a familiar face in the convoy. The person Mu-Sang is looking at notices him and exclaims out loud that he is Seo Mu-Sang. He is astounded by this and starts talking to Mu-Sang saying that he can't believe that they are meeting here. Seo Mu-Sang looks away and acts as if he does not know the man. At this, the man asks Mu-Sang if he doesn't remember him and says that he is Yeop-Wol and tries to get his attention.

After exchanging greetings and such, the convoy moves into the Sect and as they are walking through the Sect Seo-Moon Hye Ryung remarks that it's quite unfortunate that the once highly esteemed Northern Heavenly Sect is now in ruins. Shim Won-Lee replies that it is just how the world functions, If you lose your strength, you will die. A good example is a hunting dog. After the hunt, it serves no purpose. To this, Shim Soo-Ah says that her older brother's choice of words is always so crude.

At this time, Jin Mu-Won and Eun Ha-Seol are walking through the Sect and as they turn a corner, they run into the convoy. As the convoy and jin and Ha-Seol look at each other, there are a few moments of silence. Jang Pae-San and Seo Mu-Sang are alarmed at the fact that Jin is accompanied by someone else. After some time, Seo-Moon Hye Ryung says that the boy must be the descendant of the Northern Heavenly Sect. During this awkward situation, Eun Ha-Seol starts thinking that there are many unfamiliar people here and she wasn't able to detect a single one of them. Her senses are getting dull. She is getting too lax. She sikes herself up and tells herself to focus and not let her guard down.

Shim Won-Lee says that he can tell that Jin is the Northern Heavenly Sect's descendant and introduces himself. He then introduces his younger sister, Shim Soo-Ah and Seo-Moon Hye Ryung as the granddaughter of the Seo-Moon family. Then Jin introduces himself and introduces Eun Ha-Seol as a distant cousin who is temporarily residing at his place. Jang Pae-San and Seo Mu-Sang start whispering to each other at this announcement. Jang is shocked by this and asks Mu-Sang if he checked who that girl was and asks him what the hell he has been doing all this time. Mu-Sang apologizes and says that the Third Mercenary Group was too focused on repairing the palace and he is then cut off by Jang who says that the can find out who she is tomorrow.

Shim Won-Lee asks Jin if he knows who he is. Jin says that he has heard stories before and says their name are also known all throughout Murim. Shim Won-Lee then proceeds to disrespect the Sect by calling it a "shitty place" before correcting himself and saying that he is surprised even the far north have heard of their names. He says that they can skip the formalities and they can talk some more later. Seo-Moon Hye Ryung whispers to Shim Won-Lee asking him to be more respectful. Jang Pae-San is outraged at the fact that Jin brought someone into the Sect without the Mercenary Group's permission. He deems it necessary to teach Jin a lesson. He then addresses the Shim Won-Lee and the rest as lords and escorts them to the Hwancheon Palace saying that the Mercenary Group has prepared some very nice rooms for the convoy.

As the convoy is escorted to their rooms, Eun Ha-Seol thinks that Jin is not as dumb as she thought and thinks there are times when he can act this way. Being able to lie without even blinking once. She finds him an intriguing kid. Jin lets out a sigh of relief as the encounter comes to an end. As they walk away, Eun Ha-Seol wonders why Shim Won-Lee is acting like the owner of the Sect when Jin is in fact, the owner.

That night, Shim Won-Lee and General Mok Eun-Pyeong are on the top floor of the renovated Hwancheon Palace and Shim calls for General Mok. General Mok answers the call and addresses Shim Won-Lee as his Lord. Shim says that he came to the Sect in order to relish in the former glory of it but the Sect is more pathetic than he thought. General Mok stands quietly and listens to Shim. Shim says that the peace that is perceived in the mainlands are merely illusion created by the "old geezers" of the Central Heavenly Alliance. They don't want the system that they have built to be destroyed. If they could, the would want to live forever in order to reap the benefits of the corruption that they have put into place.

To this,General Mok replies that he shall do whatever he can to assist the future master of the Deceitful Heavens. Shim says that General Mok will need to wait a couple more decades before he can inherit the Deceitful Heavens. however, he doesn't plan to wait that long and says that this Sect shall become the start of his foundation as well as the beginning of something quite spectacular. He says that before all that he needs to deal with something that has been bothering him.

Jin Mu-Won is in his forge blacksmithing when Shim Won-Lee suddenly says that he never realized that the sound of a hammer could be this pleasant. Jin is disturbed by Shim's introduction as he has been sensing the entire area the whole time yet was unable to detect Shim. Just when Jin is about to ask Shim why he entered the forge, Shim says that for someone who has no internal energy, Jin is doing a good job withstanding all the heat inside the forge. He says that the place is too dull. It feels as if time has yet to move on.

Shim asks Jin how he is able to live in a place like this and picks up a blade from the bunch of blades on the wall and asks if he can take a look at it. Jin nods and consents. Shim then proceeds to examine the blade and says that it is a fine blade that can be sold for a high price in the mainlands. He then suddenly points the blade to Jin's neck and Jin is pushed back towards the wall in surprise. He nervously asks Shim what he is doing. Shim says that the fact that the Descendant of the Northern Heavenly Sect has not learned any martial arts is "bullshit". If Jin truly gave up, then he wouldn't have stayed alive for so long.

Jin starts to worry about what Shim is going to do. He wonders if Shim is trying to test him and wonders what to do. If He fights Shim now, then the situation can get worse. Not to mention that Shim is the son of one of the Nine Skies of the Central Heavenly Alliance. Jin can't reveal his strength yet. If he does, everything that he has been enduring will all become meaningless. Jin does not know what to do. Shim then says that if Jin wants to live, he has to show him what he's got. Jin fully realizes that Shim is not messing around and senses his killing intent. In a state of panic and anger, Jin releases some of his qi and Shim falters.
