Chapter 38

Yun Ya’s eyes turned bloodshot; the final thread of his restraint had snapped. His father had died on the night the Lu family was wiped out, his body covered in sword wounds, not a single part of him left intact. That night, when he had asked his father who was responsible, his father only spoke of owing a debt to his mother and made him swear a blood oath to protect his younger brother. Just then, he had received an assignment from the leader at the time and had left the capital. When he returned, he could not find his brother in that slum courtyard. For all these years, beyond searching for his brother in secret, he had believed his father died from wounds sustained during a mission. Consequently, in every mission that followed, he had been ruthless, slaughtering without hesitation—not just to complete his tasks, but to avenge his father.
