Descent of the Demon God Chapter 186

Chapter 186: Palace Lord (2)

“Father!”

Dan Young-soo, the Young Lord of the North Sea Ice Palace, cried aloud. He jumped from the ground at the sight of his father holding his neck.

He also sensed that sharp sound.

'No! No!'

A red line is clearly drawn on his father's neck. It felt like his father's head would fall off if his father let go of his neck.

Unable to contain his anger, Dan Young-soo yelled.

“What did you do?! My father fell on his knees despite having such high pride and honor!”

Chun Yeowun responded to him with an emotionless voice.

“I gave what he wanted.”

“What?! What nonsense is that?!”

The 2nd Elder Dal Chan asked.

Srng!

“Who gave you all the permission to stand?”

“Huh?”

However, Dan Cho-ja, who had his sword out, moved it with lightning speed and aimed it at his neck.

The coldness which spread from the sword wasn't normal.

'Cold Ice of Heaven!'

The 2nd Elder Dal Chan was shocked. Other than the Palace Lord and his kids, this was the first time he saw someone else master it.

When the 2nd Elder couldn't move, Chun Yeowun spoke again.

“Wasn't this what you wanted? Only the Palace Lord can learn it.”

“W-what are you even trying to say?”

“It is as I said.”

Dan Young-soo was still furious. Is Chun Yeowun saying that he was going to replace the Palace Lord?

He was terrified of the power Chun Yeowun had, but he couldn't stand back anymore.

“Regardless of the fact that we are a part of the Sky Demon Order, how can you change the Lord at your will...”

“You are a cheeky one.”

“Huh?”

Chun Yeowun moved his hand.

Crack! Thud!

“Kuaak!”

With that, Dan Young-soo knelt as both of his legs were broken at once. Only by looking at the bone poking through the skin, one could tell how terrible it was.

“Young Lord!”

The startled elders all stood up. They had deeper loyalty than fear. The 1st Elder Oh Yang-saeng, who was known to be strong, spoke loudly.

“This is excessive! Even if the Palace is under the Sky Demon Order, the laws of the Palace have been respected till now. How can you recklessly trample on our pride without a second thought?”

“Right! If you act like this, even we will…”

Woong!

At that moment, tremendous energy raged from Chun Yeowun's body. It was so strong that even those voicing their anger were at a loss for words.

'I-is this man really a human?'

It felt like their heart could stop at any moment. Still, they were Murim warriors who were known to be proud.

To them, Chun Yeowun said in an indifferent voice.

“Something is being misunderstood here.”

“Ugh..”

“Who do you think gave you what you have?”

The elders didn't answer the question.

It was because of the suppression, but they also had no idea what was being asked.

Then Chun Yeowun raised his hand up.

Jjkkk!

A strange coldness spread in the air as numerous Air Swords with Ice Qi were created.

The Palace guards who were forced to kneel looked at the Ice Swords in the sky with soulless eyes. The eyes of the elders trembled at the extraordinary sight.

All of them sensed familiar energy from the coldness.

“Cold Ice from Heaven!”

Clearly, this was the same.

Even the dead Palace Lord couldn't have done it so amazingly. Astonishingly, what Chun Yeowun was doing seemed like the best version of the technique.

'No!'

'How could this person come to know of this?'

The elders were dumbfounded. Looking at them, Dan Cho-jin clicked his tongue.

“You people did such a foolish thing. You mean you didn't even realize that you were deceiving people?”

“… What do you mean?”

“You people are in the wrong. I don't know when you started saying that you learned the technique, but it is the other way around.”

“Other way?”

“In the past, the ancestors said that those who recover the lost technique of the Cold Ice from Heaven technique will be the ones to qualify as the Palace Lord. Do you really not know where this technique came from?”

Everyone looked at Chun Yeowun.

Their faces hardened one after another—a man who had a better technique output than the Palace Lord.

'No!'

They all looked at him in disbelief. They were all aware of the story that came down from their ancestors, a story of how the North Sea Ice Palace went under the Sky Demon Order.

“N-No…”

The 1st Elder Oh Yang-saeng looked at Chun Yeowun with trembling eyes.

He was under the impression that Chun Yeowun was a new Chun Ma born in the Sky Demon Order. However, thanks to the hint given by Dan Cho-jin, he fully understood it.

'H-how did this happen… was the legend true?'

He also knew about the legend that came down from the Seong Mu-chun, but everyone dismissed it as a story that was passed down.

However, the thousand swords that are floating in the air…

'Sky Flash!'

The absolute technique of the Demon God Chun Yeowun, Sky Flash.

Realizing that, he reacted faster than anyone.

Thud!

“T-this insignificant man greets the Demon God of Sky Demon Order!”

'Demon God!'

When he said that and fell to the floor, the other surprised Elders fell and shouted.

“We greet the Demon God!”

Demon God Chun Yeowun.

Even if they were the North Sea Ice Palace which was eager to get out of the grasp of the affiliation of the Sky Demon Order, this was someone everyone acknowledged.

He is the Demon God who rebuilt the palace that was destroyed by the Turtle Dragon and restored the lost technique.

“Kuaaaa!”

Dan Young-soo, who had both his legs broken, was disconcerted by the elders' attitude. He thought they would side with him till the end. However, when Chun Yeowun's identity was revealed, everyone bowed down.

“So slow.”

Chun Yeowun clicked his tongue as he saw them lying down.

He spoke with a distasteful voice.

“I heard you wanted to be incorporated into Russia?”

“T-that…”

Silence fell with fear in the eyes of the elders. There was no excuse.

No, they had no choice but to keep their mouths shut because they knew they would receive punishment whatever they said.

“Well, you can't just pass….”

“Ahh…”

Surprisingly, Chun Yeowun let it pass easily, making them all exhale in response.

Chun Yeowund decided that these people entering Russia were very good for many reasons.

“However, trying to take down a clan by pushing them into the lava is like challenging my authority of the clan.”

Shh!

Chun Yeowun grabbed the sword and slightly stirred it.

Chachachacha!

At that, all the elders banged their heads on the floor.

Thud! Thud!

They kept hitting their faces again and again and screamed like crazy.

“Kuaaak!”

“Aack! My arm!”

The reason they were bowing and screaming was simple. It was because their left arm was cut off.

The elders, who thought that they were given a free pass, couldn't hide their shock when their arm was cut off without notice.

Chun Yeowun spoke to those who were in pain.

“Be grateful that I will end it with this.”

They couldn't speak back and bowed their heads in gratitude.

“Kuak.. D-Demon God, we thank you for the grace shown.”

“Thank you for being so graceful!”

With that, the punishment is done.

'So clean.'

Dan Cho-ja thought of the clean movement of the sword. Decisions were made in an instant with no second thoughts.

Chun Yeowun turned his head.

“And you.”

He looked at Dan Young-soo, the Young Lord of the Palace, who had his legs broken and barely supported his body. At the sight of the elders surrendering, he hurriedly said,

“P-please have mercy on me.”

It seemed like the anger for his father's death had gone down, he looked at Chun Yeowun begging, and the man looked at him with a firm voice.

“You and your father were quite a fussy bunch.”

“No! We just went to the palace…”

“I don't want to hear it.”

Before he could even finish, Chun Yeowun raised his finger slightly up.

And,

Crack!

Dan Young-soo's jawbone was crushed down, and his mouth went shut. It wasn't bleeding or anything like that, but it was a weird shape where it didn't seem like the jaw would work.

“Umumum!”

Dan Young-soo, who felt such pain for the first time in his life, shed tears and begged for his life.

'Ah…'

Dan Cho-jin couldn't hide his sadness at it. A little while ago, they were all angry at each other. However, when this man was pleading like this, his heart shattered.

He fell on the floor and begged.

“C-Chun Ma. Although the Young Lord might have sinned, please have mercy on him and spare his life.”

“Father, how can you?!”

Dan Cho-ja, the Young Leader, couldn't hide his frustration at his father's request.

The Palace people aimed to kill all of the clan people by trapping them on the island; it was absurd to show compassion to such a person.

Chun Yeowun looked at Dan Cho-jin's face and asked,

“Are you na?ve? Or just simple-minded?”

“Huh?”

As soon as the words finished, he drew the sword.

Slash!

Dan Young-soo's neck, which he constantly rubbed to release the jaw, got slashed, and he fell.

The body and head are both cut without any remorse. Chun Yeowun spoke in a cold voice to Dan Cho-jin, who stared at him blankly.

“Do you think those who betrayed you once will not do it again?”

“T-that…”

“You know what an incompetent leader means? You, people like you who are swept away by emotions.”

Chun Yeowun said that and looked at Dan Cho-ja.

“In that aspect, you are pretty good at this.”

'Ahh!'

Tak!

At the praise, Dan Cho-ja bowed down. His heart was pounding as the Demon God of the legends acknowledged him.

But then,

“Aaahh!”

With a shout, someone rushed towards Chun Yeowun. And he hurriedly tried to swing his sword when Dan Cho-ja moved in to stop him.

Chachacha!

At that moment, the coldness forming on the sword was stopped halfway. Dan Cho-ja looked at him with shocked eyes.

“H-How?”

Surprisingly, it was Dan Kyeong-gak, the Palace Lord. He, who was supposed to be dead with a throat cut, was staring at Chun Yeowun, wanting to kill him.
