Chapter 545: Register of the Martial World (11)
The Great Marshal’s command tent.
A secret meeting was underway between the Great Marshal of the Ming Empire and the Acting Division Leader of the Divine Sword Division. A sight to make any power-holder tense.
Jeong Yeon-shin studied the map of the northern territories and, in that very moment, recognized the one who resided in the Zaning Palace of the Forbidden City. More precisely, he sensed her spiritual presence woven into the wind.

I almost failed to notice it.
Was it the price of unleashing Yi Gi Yu Geom, of letting the Divine Dragon Transformation run wild?
No.
Jeong Yeon-shin’s senses remained sharp as ever—refined to a peak that permitted no ambush. Even with his body heavy from the destruction of Hocheonseong, his perception remained intact.
It was simply that the Grand Empress Dowager’s gaze had been absurdly natural. The wind that stirred the flap of the tent—that alone had been her eyes.
A method of manipulating the spiritual will of natural forces as if they were one’s own limbs.
Senior Shin’s element was earth, wasn’t it...
The former Division Leader, Shin Cheon-hwa, had wielded martial arts that overwhelmingly dominated the Five Elements.
