"...Rebellion?"
Aside from Leo who was already aware of what would happen, anyone that was isolated from the outside world like Yeon could only feel confused when hearing such a word. No matter what, it was completely incompatible with how things worked in Murim.
There was nothing to rebel against, to begin with! Although the Murim Alliance as well as the sects and families behind it assumed a leading position, they couldn't enforce any form of rules outside of their territories.
Like a very large pizza pie, Murim was divided among the various powers according to their strength and greed, the united front was merely an illusion that only became a reality under the threat of humanity's extinction.
As such, there was only one last situation that could be the answer to that…
"Is someone trying to overthrow the Emperor?"
- Sorry for the lapse in release, but as you know, going back to something isn't as easy as taking a break from it, but I also kinda lost something precious to me and spent some time searching for it to no avail, so I wasn't exactly in the mood to write till now. >.>
- I will be trying my best to keep up at least a release rate of 1ch/day and work my way up to 2 or even more(depending on the degree of support xD). Anyway, hope you enjoy this chapter, and see you soon!
- P.S: I have recently started playing valorant as a way to relief my irl stress, so if anyone still plays that, you can hit me up on the discord server and maybe we can play together!
