"Fifth Elder! Why did you fail? Explain yourself!"
A terrifying voice infused with killing intent echoed through a vast cavern. The owner of the voice stood at the foot of a high altar, with hundreds of torches lining the stairs leading up to it, illuminating the darkness. A bamboo hat hid his face, but beneath the brim, countless scars crisscrossed his skin like a spider's web.
At the foot of the altar, the Night Emperor, who had fled from the Namgung Estate, stood with his head bowed like a sinner awaiting judgment.
"…There was interference," he replied.
"Interference? What do you mean, interference? Explain in detail."
"While I was fighting the Blue Sky Sword King, the bell sounds faded away and the Myriad Demons Nightmare Formation was broken. In the end, I was ambushed by a mysterious man who I suspect also killed the Bloody Spirit."
Despite answering the bamboo hat man's questions obediently, the Night Emperor's eyes held a dangerous glint, like a hunting dog about to chew off its leash and attack its master. Regardless, he kept his head down to prevent the bamboo hat man from noticing his rebelliousness.
"A mysterious man? Do you have any idea who he could be?"
