Synopsis

Gwang Hyeolchang returns, displaying the heads of those who dared challenge him. However, he is confronted by a group from the Jinse Escort Establishment who broke their agreement. Instead of execution, their leader offers four reasons why they should be spared, including the potential to damage the Aso Stronghold's reputation, and revealing they put out a critical fire. The chapter ends with the leader being taken for a walk as a test, and the question is posed whether Gwang seeks the Green Forest Strongholds leadership.
