Clench.

Namgung Dowi tightened the sheath at his waist and looked down at his sword.

Srng!

The sword drawn glowed in the sunlight, and as he put it back in its sheath, he checked himself.

The sky-blue robes and the cloud pattern on his chest, the characters for ‘Blue Heaven’, stood out.

Phew.

He took a short breath and smiled. A handsome man with an arrogant expression could be seen.

“Didn’t I tell you to be careful of your expressions?”

At that moment, Namgung Dowi shook his head at the voice which came from behind.

“Father.”

His father, Namgung Hwang, was the current head of the Namgung family.

“People don’t care whether you are arrogant or not. But as soon as you show it to the world, your followers will turn to your enemies.”

Namgung Dowi bowed his head at his father’s words, who continued,

“To stand on top, you need to know that.”

Every word, and every expression, had a weight attached to it.

“People close their eyes to the large flaws that they see, but they cannot stand the small flaws of those above them. That is why those who stand above others need to behave properly to dominate those below. And that is the attitude that those born in the Namgung family must have.”

“I will keep that in mind, Father.”

Namgung Hwang nodded his head, but then his expression changed right away as if he was annoyed.

“But those Nine Great Sects are using the same tricks. They are doing the same fixing, and soon they will make you drop down.”

Namgung Dowi nodded his head.

“How about it? If you want, even now I…”

“Father.”

Namgung Dowi shook his head and smiled,

“Be it Shaolin’s Hae Yeon or Chung Myung from Mount Hua. They are just people I need to defeat to win. What is the difference if they bring out a strong person right away?”

“Right. That is how a child of our family needs to act.”

Namgung Hwang smiled.

‘Anyway, this must mean that Shaolin has nothing to lose if either my son falls or Chung Myung from Mount Hua falls.’

Those wicked old bastards.

“And…”

Namgung Dowi opened his mouth,

“Even if there is dissatisfaction about this decision, Mount Hua hasn’t raised any questions over it, so we of the Namgung family cannot be the ones to do that.”

“True.”

Namgung Hwang nodded his head at his son’s words and asked,

“So? Are you confident in winning?”

At this, his son smiled,

“Chung Myung from Mount Hua is strong.”

“Yes.”

“But with such light-moving sword techniques, he cannot handle this sword of ours. Today, I will prove that the best sword sect is us, not Wudang or Mount Hua.”
