Chapter 120
##120fury. way of blood religion (5)
“……I told you everything I know…….”
Sosalgui muttered with a blank face..
The pupils were wide open, and white foam flowed from the mouth..
Baek Soo-ryong looked at him blankly and thought..
‘If I leave it like this, I'll become an idiot..’
But I didn't even feel sympathy.
Among the things Sosalgwi said was that children were kidnapped under the orders of a blood cult and a village of slash-and-burn farmers was annihilated for magical experiments..
“O Lord. Please place me at the forefront of conquering the Murim. I will become your sword and slaughter my enemies, offering my beating heart to the Most High.…….”
Sosalgwi, who had become crazy, licked Baek Soo-ryong's shoes..
Baek Soo-ryong looked down at the back of his head with an expressionless face..
‘Bloody bastards. My skills aren't as good as before, but I've become more secretive and cruel. Moreover, they are indiscriminately teaching people how to practice magic, which was taboo..’
Perhaps it is a way to increase strength in a short period of time..
I thought that maybe the revival of the blood religion might not be as far away as I thought..
Baek Soo-ryong asked.
“Let me ask you one more thing. You said earlier that your immediate superior was a blood dragon, right? This is the guy who planted a soul demon spell on Geo Sang-woong and planned to devour the Golden Dragon Sangdan..”
“yes. you're right…….”
“Tell me more about him.”
Sosalgui began to speak with a dazed expression..
“Blood Dragon is a co-disciple of the elders, and is a late exponent with high expectations in the church. His nickname in Moorim is Kwon Pae (拳覇). His skills were so outstanding that he was ranked Yongbong in last year's Cheonmuje, and his heart was also outstanding.…….”
Kwonpae (拳覇) first day.
He is currently a fourth year student at Cheonmuhak Hall and is said to be one of the promising late-stage students, to the point where some say he will become a future teenage master..
When it comes to martial arts, he competes head to head with masters who are already considered powerful..
‘The first day of Kwonpae. I'll have to remember that.’
It will be difficult to meet a blood dragon right away..
But whether it was Emperor Tianwu or before, Baeksu-ryong was planning to meet him separately if he got the chance..
Of course, we won't just meet and talk..
“……That's it.…….”
“I don't know that much.”
“Information from this organization is limited even to me.…….”
“I guess so. When I look at your skills, it's just a throwaway comment. It's strange that I even know the circumstances of the headquarters. This is enough.”
Baeksuryong raised his hand blade and struck his heavenly spirit dog..
“Blood maangbok! Blood tax world……!”
Looking at the blood demon's hand striking him, Sosalgwi shouted with joy..
Powok!
Sosalgui’s body collapsed helplessly..
Baek Su-ryong muttered as he tried to block out the surrounding sounds..
“that. It's the word I hate the most.”
Anyway, I got quite a bit of information about blood religion..
According to Sosalgwi, there were documents at the gambling house that could be used as evidence, so I was planning to go within today and collect the documents..
“But before that…….”
Baek Soo-ryong put the half-torn human skin mask back on. Even though it was torn, it was enough to cover the face..
Geumryongjangju was walking from afar, escorted by warriors..
“It's all over.?”
Seeing the unusual look in Jinryongjangju's eyes, I thought we should talk for a while before leaving..
* * *
Geumryongjangju’s room.
After biting off all the guards, the Golden Dragon Commander sat down with Baek Su-ryong with a serious expression..
“I have received a favor from you that would be difficult to repay even if I had to pay it back for the rest of my life. You saved my son and saved my family from disaster. It's hard to imagine how I'm going to pay it all back..”
“I just did what was necessary.”
Baek Soo-ryong answered with a calm expression..
Although he helped Geo Sang-woong, who was on the verge of ruin, to make a comeback, and also helped Geumryongjang, Baek Soo-ryong also gained a lot in the process..
‘Just getting information about blood religion is a great achievement..’
In addition, it was a blessing to the Lord of the Golden Dragon..
Talking alone with the owner of one of the world's top ten companies was not something that just anyone could do..
But from today onwards, whenever the white water dragon asks, the golden dragon leader will come running out in socks..
“Lord Jang. I'd like to keep this matter between us..”
Jinryongjangju nodded heavily..
Baek Soo-ryong did not directly mention 'blood religion' to him, but he thought that a man of his stature would be able to guess it well..
“I also don't want my name to be mentioned in connection with this matter..”
“Of course. Even though I call it a business, I don’t know how to be sincere. I will speed up the recruitment of the guards, so Mr. Baek, don’t worry. I will finish the work well within the headquarters..”
With such a firm promise, I didn't think there would be any concern about the story related to him being leaked out..
‘My name shouldn't be known to the blood cult yet..’
If we continue to clash with the blood religion, it will become known someday, but I planned to hide it as much as possible if I could..
“Lord Jang. What I asked for before……?”
“Here it is.”
Jinryongjangju took something out of his pocket and held it out to Baeksuryong..
It was a letter that Sosalgui had tied up in Jeon Seo-gu and intended to send to the main body of the Blood Religion..
Jinryongjangju said with a grin..
“I mobilized all the falconers in the city and had them catch the Jeonseo-gu that the teacher had mentioned..”
Hyeolgyo uses specially trained Jeonseogu as a means of communication..
Of course Baeksu-ryong knew that, and asked Geumryongjangju to capture Jeon Seo-gu..
With this, the letter that Sosalgui tried to send to Blood Dragon was also blocked..
“I haven't read the content, so you don't have to worry..”
“thank you Can I read it right here??”
“Of course.”
While Baeksu-ryong read the scriptures, Jinryongjangju slowly drank tea..
After a while, after seeing that Baeksu-ryong had finished reading the letter and putting it down, Geumryongjangju opened his mouth..
“……teacher. I am a merchant.”
“I know.”
“Apart from repaying the favor, I would like to invest in you as the sole owner of Geumryong Sangdan..”
“……If you say investment?”
When Baeksu-ryong raised his eyebrows and asked again, Geumryongjangju smiled kindly and said,.
“It's an investment I make with faith in my eyes for people. This is a suggestion I make with the hope that you will become a strong umbrella for the Geumryong Sangdan in the future..”
“…….”
“If there is anything you want, please tell me without hesitation. We will save you everything that can be obtained with wealth, elixirs, treasured swords, and money..”
It would be nice to say that with Geumryongjang’s wealth, there is nothing in the world that cannot be achieved..
A proposal that would entice anyone.
But the moment he heard those words, Baek Soo-ryong felt surprisingly calm..
‘There is still no shortage of money. As for the sword, Wolyoung is enough for now, and someday, the old man above will make something more than a blood demon sword. I don't need the elixir right now..’
Baek Soo-ryong thought carefully about what he needed..
‘If this is what I need in this situation... … It's just martial arts.’
I'm not talking about a new new Gongjeolhak..
Because I already know five tax-saving methods that are difficult to handle..
While dealing with the demons of the noble clan, Baek Soo-ryong was confident in his martial arts skills, but also felt regret..
‘We need to further increase our achievements in Reverse Heaven..’
His Reverse Heavenly Art has now reached the level of neutrality..
However, due to the rare constitution of the transsyllable vein, a special method was needed to achieve more than this..
And that Dafa needed the most outstanding legislator in the world..
“Lord Jang. Do you know the abode of the god of life and death??”
“Ramen of the god of life and death…….”
The expression of Geumryongjangju, who had confidently proposed a deal, turned into embarrassment..
Sometimes there are things that money can't buy..
“He is such a rare person that I don't know his whereabouts. Maybe even Gyeongjae or Haomun won't know..”
“okay.”
Baek Soo-ryong was not disappointed with the answer..
I asked Gongsunsu the same question before, but the answer I got back was the same..
- Are these the words of the god of life and death? It was just luck that I received treatment from him. His Majesty the Emperor almost begged to take a look at my body..
Gongsunsu also said that although it was harsh, there was no other way..
Because God of Life and Death was one of the ten greatest masters in the world..
Jinryongjangju said with a dark expression..
“I will use all my connections to find him. I will let you know as soon as news comes in. But I don't think I can help you any further than that.…….”
“That's enough.”
Even if I were to find the God of Life and Death, it was unclear whether I would be able to receive his help..
‘Although it is possible to completely overcome transylvania on your own... … The risk is high and it takes a long time..’
In order to solidify the path to the greatness of the Heavenly Demonic Art, the help of the gods of life and death was needed..
Jinryongjangju said:.
“Other than that, you don't need anything else.?”
“Not really…….”
Baek Soo-ryong tried to refuse, saying there were no more, but one thing suddenly occurred to him..
“Lord Jang. Have you heard of the White Dragon Sangdan??”
This is my first time hearing this name..”
Jinryongjangju seemed to think for a moment and then shook his head..
It meant that the name of the White Dragon Sangdan was still limited to that level..
“…… This is the top that I started a while ago. We are currently only operating guesthouses, banjeoms, and giru, but we plan to expand our business by opening a business and a pyoguk in the near future..”
While Baek Soo-ryong worked as an instructor at Cheongryong Academy, Bok Man-chun was busy trying to increase his fortune..
‘It's good to get paid by others, but it's better to make your own money..’
Baek Soo-ryong looked further ahead than immediate profits..
If the Golden Dragon Company leads the White Dragon Company from the front, the size of the White Dragon Company will increase in an instant..
“This is the top I personally invested in. Could you please entrust the remaining work of Geumryong Sangdan to Baekryong Sangdan??”
A huge platform like the Golden Dragon Company cannot handle everything on its own..
Instead, it is subcontracted to a smaller company..
Just being a subcontractor for the Cheonha Ten Daesang was a huge benefit for the Baekryong Sangdan, which was just starting to establish itself..
Jinryongjangju nodded willingly..
“It's not difficult. I will do that.”
“thank you.”
Baek Soo-ryong grinned, thinking of Bok Man-chun, whose mouth would be torn off tomorrow..
* * *
Before dawn that day, Baek Soo-ryong arrived at Sosalgui’s gambling house..
“who…….”
Powok!
The warriors of the noble blood band who remained on guard in the gambling house collapsed without even seeing their opponents' shadows..
It was a white water dragon that even the most elite demons of the noble clan could not deal with..
Those who remained in the gambling hall because their skills were poor could not even get his attention for a second..
“Please save me, I will get better!”
Among the people remaining in the gambling hall was Yang Jin..
He kept it alive on purpose. Yang Jin, who had even given up on resistance, knelt before Baek Su-ryong and prayed..
“I will do anything if you let me live. please…….”
Because he came wearing a mask, Yang Jin did not recognize Baek Su-ryong..
Baek Soo-ryong, who modulated his voice, said.
“Go straight to Geumryongjang. I will leave the work to you there. If you run away... … . You know it without me having to say it.”
“Yes, yes! thank you for saving me.”
“for a moment. before you go.”
Powwow!
Baek Soo-ryong's one-shot hit Yang Jin in the chest..
The magical energy of the soul magic that remained in his body was instantly eliminated..
“go now.”
“Hehehe!”
Baek Su-ryong looked at Yang Jin's back screaming and running away for a moment..
The guard provided by Geumryongjang is following him, so even if he tries to run away, he will eventually be caught by Geumryongjang..
‘If the blood dragon makes contact in the future, it will be through that guy..’
In the past, Yang Jin, along with Geo Sang-woong, was addicted to the soul magic spell..
Because of this, my life was ruined, and I ended up becoming a member of a blood cult..
Because the case was different from the case of the noble family, they did not kill him..
‘I will save you. But I haven't done anything well, so I guess I'll have to be the bait..’
Arrangements in case the clans come into contact again in the future.
I told Lord Geumryong to keep a watch on Yang Jin..
After Yang Jin disappeared, Baek Soo-ryong took off his mask and glanced around the gambling hall..
“Where the ledger is hidden…….”
Baek Soo-ryong looked inside the gambling hall with keen eyes..
After a while, he noticed an awkward joint on the wall and his eyes lit up..
“Here it is.”
Baek Soo-ryong, who was feeling the joint, found a small hole in the wall..
Then, I found a sharp awl inside the gambling hall, put it in the hole, and turned it sideways..
Drurly…….
The wall was pushed aside, revealing a hidden safe inside..
Baek Soo-ryong grinned..
“also.”
Baek Soo-ryong was also quite knowledgeable in the techniques of fighting and fighting, although he was not as expert as Zhuge Soyong in the fighting and fighting techniques..
Inside the safe, documents and ledgers related to blood religion were piled up..
“Let's see…….”
Baek Soo-ryong took out a thick book and quickly looked through it. It was a book containing a list of spies of the blood cult operating secretly in the city..
“Murim League, Sega, Danang, Hakkwan, and many others were planted here and there..”
Baek Soo-ryong's gaze, which was clicking his tongue as he went through the list of spies, stopped in front of one name..
Grinning.
An unbearable smile appeared on Baek Soo-ryong’s mouth..
“I found it.”
There were three letters written under the name <Pungjinho>..
