Synopsis

The chapter opens with the Qingcheng Sect being pressured by the Murim Alliance to hand over the Venom Dragon and Yoohwa, but their leader, Mu Am, refuses due to his feelings for Yoohwa. The sect elders realize their precarious position and decide to abandon their mountain stronghold, while Mu Am chooses to stay behind. They suspect that the Murim Alliance leader's assassination was a self-inflicted wound by the leader himself to create internal discord and then reorganize. The sect prepares to scatter across Jianghu, while also spreading a rumor that Yoohwa has been imprisoned to justify the appearance of unorthodox sects.
