Chapter 187

Hu Bong then pointed toward the back of the parade . Yeowun and his members became surprised at the ones following from behind . They wore different clothes, and the letter the flag showed was clearly who they were .

[Yulin Clan]

These people were from the Yulin Clan, the largest group from the Forces of Justice . It was the first time in the Cult’s history where members from Justice walked into the castle . Crowds began to grow noisy .

‘What is this?’

‘Yulin clan?’

‘Didn’t the ambassadors come last time?’

And unlike the last time, there was a large number of them entering the gate . Crowds then began to boo and taunt at members of Yulin clan .

“Booo!”

And warriors from Yulin clan too looked very nervous and tense . Within them, there were multiple other clan flags from the forces of justice . At the center, there were two carriages covered with golden clothes, that showed that important members were in it .

“Oh, it’s very interesting, I see . ”

“UGH!”

Hu Bong was surprised by the sudden voice coming from his side . It was Huan Yi, the 11th Elder who appeared . Huan Yi had many spies over all places of the world, so it seemed he had a guess of who and what these were .

“Do you know what’s going on?”

Yeowun asked and Huan Yi shook his head .

“It’s not clear… but maybe we might side with the Yulin clan this time . ”

“Side with the Yulin clan?”

Lee Hameng asked back surprisingly . For the past fifty years, the Cult had waged fierce war against the Yulin clan . There was no severe fight in recent five years, but they were still very hostile against each other .

“Well, we’ll hear what’s really going on at the palace . ”

Members of the Yulin clan were allowed to enter the castle in front of every cultist . It was sure that the Lord’s palace was going to announce something to the cultists . When everyone got into the castle, the castle gate closed and the crowd followed the parade into the Lord’s palace .

But things turned out differently from expectation . Members of Yulin clan were escorted inside to the guesthouse at the inner palace, and First Elder, Mu Jinwon got up on the stage and shouted .

“Greetings! Fellow cultists of the Demonic Cult! It’s me, First Elder Mu Jinwon . ”

Cultists became confused when Mu Jinwon, instead of the Lord, got up on the stage . When the crowd became silent, Mu Jinwon shouted in a large voice .

“I first want to thank all of you who cheered for our, and our Lord’s return . The Lord is very exhausted from the long trip, so please gather back here tomorrow afternoon for his announcement . For the ambassadors from the Yulin clan who entered the castle, please consider them as our guests — they were formally invited . It is the Lord’s order . ”

Mu Jinwon then bowed and walked down the stage . So, the announcement of what was going on was postponed to tomorrow .

‘What is going on? Why did they invite the Yulin clan here?’

‘Dammit, he didn’t say anything!’

Cultists noisily talked about their speculations and soon scattered . There were multiple questions but there was no way to find out until tomorrow . And when people began to return to their homes, short horns sounded three times, signaling the summoning of all elders, leaders of clans, and guardians into the palace .

“I guess we have the Grand meeting first . ”

Huan Yi spoke and Yeowun nodded . He was now allowed to enter the Grand Meeting formally, and sit together as equals with the other elders .

“We’ll wait at the restaurant near the palace . ”

Only elders, guardians, and clan leaders were allowed so Yeowun’s members weren’t allowed in .

“Okay . Please take care of this . ”

“Yes, master . ”

The inner palace required weapons to be left behind, so Yeowun asked Hu Bong to carry his White Dragon Blade and the sword created from cold steel . He then walked into the inner palace with Lee Hameng and Huan Yi .

Inside the inner palace, there were many large buildings, and across from the Lord’s residence, there was a large building made just for the Grand Meeting . The building was a lavishly decorated hall, with chairs placed so that people could sit down in ranks . The throne at the farthest inside was the Lord’s throne that sat toward the crowd, and there were twelve elder seats that placed down to look at each other . Other clan leaders were located towards the outside . 7 elders who just returned were already in their seats and clan leaders began entering to sit down in the empty seats . All leaders from high ranking clans sat down in front row seat, and the other clan leaders sat behind .

“9th Elder, entering the hall!”

When the elders entered, guards at the entrance shouted to alert everyone .

“Welcome . ”

“It’s been a long time, Elder Sama . ”

All clan leaders got up and greeted 9th Elder Sama Yi . The Grand Meeting didn’t happen that often so it was a good chance for clan leaders to get a chance to talk with the elders . After a few minutes, most clan leaders got in and sat down on the chairs . And with the Lord who was going to enter with the three guardians, everyone else was now here . The only one that hadn’t arrived yet besides the Lord and three guardians, were the 10th, 11th, and 12th elders .

“Three elders are late . ”

“Well, he won’t be happy, so we’ll have to understand . ”

Hang Soyu, the 5th elder and leader of the Lust clan spoke with frown, and the fourth elder, and leader of Loyal Clan, Ja Kinkeng laughed and responded . Ja Kinkeng was talking about Baek Oh . Baek Oh was a member of the six clans, but was pushed down to the 12th elder, and couldn’t join the trip . That’s when the guard at the gate shouted .

“10th Elder, 11th Elder, 12 Elder, entering the hall!”

Three elders entered at once and Hang Soyu shook her head .

“Hmph . Does he made friends with low ranking elders while he’s there?”

And with the gate being opened, three men walked in . Everyone then turned to the three elders coming in .

“huH?’

“What?”

All elders who sat on the high ranking chairs frowned . They expected Baek Oh to be walking in with his staff, and the one who entered instead, while having two other elders on both sides, was Chun Yeowun .

“H-how can he?!”

Hang Soyu knew Chun Yeowun’s face clearly . She had seen him in the first test in the Demonic Academy years ago . Yeowun had turned into an adult, but he still had the same face from when he was a teenage boy . Yeowun then walked up to the elders who were lost for words and bowed .

“Greetings, elders . I am new 12th elder, Chun Yeowun . ”
