Chapter 93
Namgung Family.
When the Blade Emperor Namgung Woo sleeps, the entire Namgung clan falls silent—such is the household where everything revolves around him. Though labeled overbearing, stubborn, and self-righteous, his prowess is undeniable.
Regarded as the most fiercely tempered among the Emperors, the Sword Emperor was also the man who demanded the position of Martial Alliance Leader be relinquished, earning him the enmity of Leader Yu Zhenghong.
The entire family, led by the white-haired old master, were disciples of Doje.
But today, even that Daeje felt a fresh sense of emotion.
Today marked the official day of stepping down from the position of family head, as well as Namgung Woo’s seventy-fifth birthday. Naturally, most of the masters from the Imperial Council had gathered to console him for his past labors and celebrate his birthday, filling the place with crowds. Some family heads came personally, while others sent their second-in-command as a representative. With the exception of the Hwa Clan, to which Hwa Eun-wol belonged, the entire Imperial Council was assembled.
Hua Eun-wol, not being affiliated with the Hua Clan, was the sort of man who would send a few subordinates bearing gifts, even if he knew it was the Grand Master’s birthday.
The crowd kept pouring in until late afternoon.
Consequently, it was impossible to tell who was who.
Many sent gifts. Caravans and merchants indebted to the Namgung clan, along with representatives from the postal service, the military, and the ironworks, also formed a continuous stream of visitors. It was difficult for the household staff to verify and return each one individually.
