Synopsis

The chapter opens with an alliance leader's resolve, while a battle highlights the strength of Joo Cheonmu, who neutralizes poison and has unique sword skills, forcing his opponent to rely on ice arts to overpower him. The fighting affects Hyling's reaction speed due to the ice. Meanwhile, the chapter reveals that the Unorthodox Faction is being undermined by poison: the third son was poisoned by medicine, the second by alcohol, and the first is seemingly next.
