Synopsis

The chapter begins with the protagonist, Zaha, now posing as a handsome escort, preparing for a solo mission to deliver the Black Rabbit Sword to the Lunar Cloud Brothers. He uses this mission as an opportunity to dismantle the influence of the Supreme Sword Association, and the corrupt merchants under it, by making threats against them. Zaha also reveals he is the one who killed the Great Rakshasa and half of the Twelve Heavenly Generals, demonstrating his immense power and that he is a force to be reckoned with. He concludes by forcing the merchants to choose a side in the impending conflict or face his wrath, while also offering to reward information about his enemies, the Swift Whirlwinds.
