Chapter 570: Naadam (3)
There exists a being known as Pangu.
The creator deity of Taoism.
A myth that the Yozoku came to love sharing after the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Said to have first been written in an old Wu Kingdom text called the “Records of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.”
A story in which the world was created from the death of a giant the size of the heavens.
Naturally, the northern Yozoku wouldn’t leave such a tale unused.
They too were large in stature and intended to found a nation of their own someday. Even their architectural style—“Sharp-Spired Houses,” with rooftops that jutted up like blades—spoke to this.
Even the Yozoku commoners who built their own homes were fiercely warlike by nature.
And that wasn’t all.
Blacksmiths of the North who knew only how to forge blades. Axe-wielding warriors who passed martial arts between each other under the term "schools" rather than sects. Vagabond fighters who refused glory under the Northern Kings and instead roamed the wilderness pillaging.
All beings who reveled in elevating themselves.
Even the nation names Mun Gok had prepared in advance were being widely used.
Jin. Daechung.
