The Sword Saint felt the strong aura suppressing him instantly disappear as soon as he sat down on the chair.

‘What is it?

What is this aura?’

It was different from using internal ki to suppress the surrounding air because his martial arts level was high.

“You-”

The Sword Saint looked at Cale.

This feeble young boy...

“You, are you human?”

“Pfft.” He could hear the chuckle coming out of the young man’s mouth.

He sternly responded as if he could not believe what he was just asked.

“Of course I am human. What else would I be?”

“An immortal-”

The moment that the Sword Saint said that word... Chief Eunuch Wi and Elder Ho's eyes clouded over, but...

“No sir. I hate immortals and gods quite a bit.”

Their gazes returned to normal after hearing Cale respond so honestly and firmly.

“My wish is to not get involved with those sides at all if possible.”

Cale’s face, which looked as if he had eaten some extremely unripe fruit, was full of sincerity.

“…….”

That was why the Sword Saint could not ask anything else and closed his mouth.

‘At least one thing is clear now.’

The clear truth that he had realized with his body...

‘I cannot defeat this person.’

Young master Kim was able to suppress him by changing the air around him without even using any internal ki.

‘...He is beyond the Profound Realm. Is he in the Nature Realm?’

The leader of the School of Carnage... He felt as if he could understand why the Carnage Demon was shocked.

The Nature Realm.

That realm was something they only heard about in legends.

Of course, there were talks about how the original owner of the Sky Sword Martial arts, the one that the Sword Demon Choi Jung Soo had on him right now, had been at the Nature Realm, but...

The Sword Saint had thought that he would never see the Nature Realm while he was alive.

The realm where a person became close to nature...

Reaching that level seemed difficult for humans who lived in the secular world.

However, a person whose strength could only be explained by being in the Nature Realm had appeared in front of his very eyes.

‘...In that case, young master Kim should actually be quite old.’

Although he looked like a young man, young master Kim should be quite old.

‘He should be older than the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.”

Since he had the golden plaque, he should have some sort of close relationship with the Imperial family.

‘He might be the eldest senior of the Imperial family.’

Numerous thoughts instantly filled his mind. However, there was not much he could do.

The Imperial family and the Nature Realm.

To go against young master Kim, who had both of those things and for the Namgung Clan to do something to oppose him?

‘The Five Great Clans will shun us. The Martial Arts Alliance will definitely cast us aside.’

The Martial Arts Alliance.

Although they claimed this grand purpose of protecting the justice of the Martial Arts world, they were an organization focused on benefits as well.

Only the people of the Namgung Clan could protect the Namgung Clan.

Furthermore, the Sword Saint knew.

He knew how the Namgung Clan was seen in the Martial Arts world.

‘They will happily accept it since it looks like our Namgung Clan, whom they think are arrogant bastards, are about to fall.’

It was obvious.

“Mm.”

He couldn't help but groan.

He felt frustrated.

‘If I don’t go against young master Kim’s wishes and do as he asks to confirm whether Namgung Tae Wi is a living jiangshi...’

If that happened, regardless of whether it was true or not, the view of the Namgung Clan would become bad.

‘But more importantly, if Tae Wi is-’
