### Summary
Following a three-year time skip, Jin Mu-Won is consolidating the power of his re-established Northern Heavenly Sect. A significant development is the sect's absorption of the Black Moon organization, with the recent reveal of its master's identity providing crucial explanations and connecting past events. This strategic growth is complemented by an emotional revelation: a surviving loyalist from the original Four Pillars has emerged, confirming that allies, acting on their loyalty to Mu-Won's late father, Jin Kwan-Ho, had been secretly protecting him and his guardian, Hwang-Cheol, all along. This full-circle moment underscores that Mu-Won was never truly alone, solidifying his transition from a solitary avenger who executed the traitor Jo Cheon-Woo to a charismatic leader. While his physical appearance has changed, prompting discussion among followers, the central mystery of his amnesiac companion Eun Ha-Seol's fate remains a major unresolved plot point, even as the sect prepares for a larger war against the manipulative Heavenly Alliance.
