Finally the bigger, overarching plot has started becoming more and more obvious. "The former heaven master suddenly aged really badly and became sick" interesting, wonder if it was not actually his time to die.
Love when a protagonist defeats an opponent that has an unfair advantage or is plainly cheating. Jiwoo's victory over Duke is borderline overwhelming and very satisfying! Also, finally the results of having more than one force control have become obvious enough for others to realise. Wonder how that will play out in the future regarding Jiwoo's prowess but mostly how others will react when they realise that Jiwoo has multiple people teaching him their force control.
And now we know why the Penal Law Hall master said something along the lines of "we're the same" during an early chapter. Of course an orthodox spy would recognize an orthodox assassin. Not that he knows it's Chun Hajin, just that he's not quite from the Demonic Cult. I wonder if he'll confront the 3rd young lord about it next!
Anyway you see Tang Bo and Chung Myung's relationship, it's such a beautiful depiction of love (be it platonic or romantic). Extremely rare and precious.
Been wondering for ages when and how the intelligence stat would play a role, finally it has become relevant. I hope it affects a little more than that (read chapter 197). Anyway, the modern setting plot has become really good, I ~almost~ don't miss the murim world lol
From illegal cliffhanger to illegal cliffhanger. This is becoming kinda annoying but I can't stop craving for more ┗( T﹏T )┛
The initial plot (a.k.a Demon Lord jk) might have won me over but I gotta admit the art and story have only gotten better with each chapter. Also, this is one of the few murim manhwa that have so many handsome male characters with some serious sex appeal, I can't help but sense some romantic tension between the protag and them (looking at you Demon Lord, and no it's not because everytime you appear on a panel your massive, tight boo... pecs are always on display). It is kinda cute that he seems to be opening up because of our MC, no? And now the Ice guy came to baffle me even more, because if it was like most martial arts webtoons, he would be an ice princess or something. Which I'm very surprised by, because ice=yin="feminine" energy.
Well, the ice princess is coming and I'm not pleased coz mc is about to save her. Aaargh, a female is not really necessary
Oh, I did not expect the sincerity of the interaction between Cheongmyeong and the Tang guy (Zhan?). And then, by the last few panels, it was explained. I don't know how deep his connection with the Tang clan used to be, but it was a rare sentimental moment by Cheongmyeong. I enjoyed it (though the chapter felt extremely short).
that Tang guy who ask him to protect the clan is his friend who is a Leader a century ago and they battle together so on and so forth
He's always been such a menace, I love it! To the senior he bit half his face off, "trying to save face" and "pardon my cheek" is diabolical lol (kuddos to the translator, I chuckled).
