### Summary
Following their recent victory, the new alliance between Jin Mu-Won and Dam Soo-Cheon is immediately overshadowed by controversy and a new, overwhelming threat. Readers express intense frustration that the "blood user" antagonist, though defeated and disarmed by the sentient sword "Snow Flower," was not killed. This failure to secure a definitive end for the villain is seen as an injustice to the sword spirit's quest for vengeance and a frustratingly repetitive plot device. Before the heroes can even process this incomplete victory, the situation escalates dramatically with the arrival of a powerful new adversary, identified by readers as Seomoon Hwa, one of the legendary "Nine Skies." His appearance implies a devastating conspiracy, suggesting the Nine Skies are collaborating with a revived "Silent Night," transforming Mu-Won's rebellion into a war against the world's most powerful entities. This development sets the stage for a potential battle of wits between the knowledgeable Seomoon Hwa and Mu-Won's own brilliant strategist, Ha Jin-Wol, even as the heroes are left reeling from the relentless and increasingly intense onslaught of enemies.
