Sahin

Sahin, the Master of Blade Fist, is a Blade God Six Martial Clan infiltrator who adapts the Blade God's inhuman blade movements into barehanded combat. His raid on the Demonic Academy library becomes one of Chun Yeowun's first direct clashes with the hidden clan.

Biography

Library infiltration

Sahin enters the Demonic Academy as the senior fighter covering a younger operative's escape with remains stolen from the underground vault. He disables most instructors through a sound-based shock that damages their eardrums, snaps a Master-level instructor's neck, catches a sword's force qi between two armored fingers, and kills a fifth-floor guardian with a penetrating strike. Lee Hameng blocks the escape and recognizes that Sahin's fist formations use angles a normal body should not sustain. Once Hameng identifies the Blade God connection, Sahin names himself openly because he expects his opponent to die before reporting it. (Chapter 203)

Sahin overpowers Hameng's Flame Sword despite its defensive barriers and leaves him with severe internal injuries. Before the finishing blow, Yeowun arrives carrying the stolen remains and throws Sahin the severed head of his fleeing subordinate. The appearance of a confirmed crown prince contradicts the clan's intelligence and tells Sahin that the larger plan—to make Yulin and the Demonic Cult fight while the thieves escape—has failed. With cult forces closing around the academy, he first tries to kill Hameng and then decides Yeowun must become his hostage. (Chapters 203–204)

Duel with Chun Yeowun

Yeowun protects Hameng and sends him to alert the Lord, forcing Sahin into a direct duel. Sahin's greater internal energy and Blade Fist overwhelm the Twenty-Four Demon Sword. He attacks blood points from unnatural directions, modifies his sequence to counter the sword art's weakness, shatters Yeowun's cold-steel blade, and drives fist energy into his organs. Believing the prince incapacitated, Sahin offers surrender as the only alternative to death. Nano instead expels the fragments, repairs the wounds, and convinces him that taking Yeowun alive is impossible. (Chapters 204–205)

Sahin commits to his strongest formation, but Yeowun forms the Sky Demon Sword from the black wrist guard and releases the final Sword Force of the Sky Demon. Twenty-four black trajectories converge into one point, break both fist formations, and pierce a large hole through Sahin's chest. The later examination of his corpse lets Lord Chun Yujong recognize the sword trace hidden among apparent puncture wounds. (Chapters 205–207)

Appearance and personality

Sahin is a middle-aged man. He is secretive while an operation remains recoverable and boasts once he thinks witnesses cannot survive. He enjoys testing a strong opponent, but his confidence is tactical rather than fearless: as soon as the academy closes around him, he searches for leverage and changes the hostage plan into a kill order when Yeowun's healing makes restraint impractical.

Martial arts and abilities

• Blade Fist: Sahin translates Blade God blade formations into fist techniques. The joints and muscles follow trajectories considered unsafe for an ordinary body, allowing attacks to arrive from angles conventional defenses do not cover. The fist version preserves enough of the original sequence that Yeowun recognizes the Blade God's second formation even without a blade. (Chapters 203–205)
• Formation adaptation: He does not repeat a fixed kata. When Yeowun targets the known weakness in Blade God-derived movement, Sahin changes the line to exploit the Twenty-Four Demon Sword instead. This counter-analysis lets a fist formation erode Yeowun's sword barrier and shows that his title reflects technical mastery, not only altered physique. (Chapter 205)
• Force-qi coating and Fist Bullet Qi: Sahin coats hands or individual fingers in force qi, enabling him to catch another warrior's sword qi without losing the fingers and to penetrate a chest with a compact strike. He can also project Fist Bullet Qi at range, though Yeowun's Step of Wind God prevents him from using it to stop Hameng's escape. (Chapters 203–204)
• Internal energy and impact transfer: His cultivation exceeds Yeowun's at that stage. A counterattack adds Sahin's force to Yeowun's own momentum, sending damaging energy through the blocking sword and into the organs. Yeowun can purge it through the feet, but only after being driven backward and relying on Nano for repair. (Chapters 204–205)
• Cold-steel gauntlet: His metal glove protects the hand and supports direct collisions with blades. It is equipment, not the source of the Blade Fist's unusual movement or his internal power.

Relationships

• Lee Hameng: The academy leader who identifies Sahin's clan and survives the internal injuries he inflicts.
• Chun Yeowun: Intended hostage who defeats him with the cult's highest sword art.
• Chun Yujong: The Lord who examines Sahin's corpse and recognizes Yeowun's concealed sword trace.

Items

• Cold-steel gauntlet: A metal glove that lets Sahin reinforce hand-to-blade combat and catch a force-qi-coated sword between his fingers.
