EP.154 Chapter 15 - Mission, Pursuit (4)

It was a forced march..
It was a day where all time except the night was spent on moving, and only at the end was Mokriwon and his group able to arrive at Cheonghae..
And the news I heard was surprising.
“The King of Dao is there.?!”
Mok Riwon asked with sparkling eyes..
Daowang Jingeon, that's because he was one of the people Mokriwon wanted to meet at least once when he came to this river..
-Oh my god? He's just a stupid idiot. He is a guy who sold his soul for being a bitch and fighting, but he also happens to be talented and became the king of the four stars..
-He is….
-I was neutral that day. There was no reason. They just kept their mouths shut until the end and said that your fate will be decided by your vote, thus canceling the vote altogether. Maybe it was because he didn't want to take responsibility..
-Well, isn't it thanks to him that I am able to live??
-Hey guy, it was your brother who saved you.!
According to the words of Geolwang Mile-seok, he was a person who did not think that talk about life and death was important at all..
So, if you meet him at Gangho, he might treat you as a junior regardless of that..
‘Such a coincidence!’
Mokriwon was deciding that although the situation was not good, if it could be resolved, we should meet separately..
The martial arts leader from the Cheonghae branch of the Murim League nodded and answered..
“Yes, the Lord of Dao and the Lord of the Cabinet are currently engaged in a chase with the Demon of Transcendence..”
That's the fifth day.
Mokriwon's mouth widened when he heard that the repetition of chases and battles, the resulting collapse of the terrain, and the roaring noises would be everywhere if he went one more day from here..
“No, you don't have to go quickly to help.?!”
I tried to say it, but the military officer shook his head..
“This is an inaccessible level of combat. If we approach too hastily, there will only be more damage on our side. Therefore, there is a command from the Lord of the Cabinet. Currently, all the demons that have been hiding throughout Cheonghae have risen up, so we have requested that they be sorted out..”
“Then the policy is decided..”
Geumgeom Kwon Pyo-wol organized the situation..
“Are you going to move like this again? We need to join the advance team and discuss ways to deal with the demons of Cheonghae. Look. Where is the advance team??”
“I went up to Xinjiang. Among them, one of the six demons that were active in the midfield earlier is visible..”
“What is it??”
“According to Maeng's information, that person is Pae Woong-chu, a fighting spirit..”
Suddenly, Mok Riwon’s body stopped..
Wonma Paewongchu.
It was a demon that Mok Ri-won met on his way to Wuhan before he had even joined the Murim Alliance..
‘were you here…!’
The moment I think of him, images of past battles flash through my mind..
Since he was unable to gain the upper hand and was defeated, and many people lost their lives because of that incident, the name Paeungchu had a special meaning to Mok Riwon..
Mok Riwon’s expression sank..
It was a clear form of revenge and determination..
“narrow neck.”
Danghwaseo spoke softly and held Mokriwon’s hand..
Mok Riwon was able to come to his senses only after hearing those words..
“…It's okay.”
grinned.
“I won't be excited. no matter how strong he became….”
I would have become stronger than him.
Mokriwon spoke confidently and dispelled Danghwaseo's worries..

So I ran for another day.
We arrived at a small military office in Cheonghae..
The advance team, who were allowed to stay at the military building thanks to the favor of the director who came out to help with the ceremony, and the later team, who arrived at the military building after hearing the news, finally met..
“Geomryong hyung! Monk Iun! Monk Hyeun!”
Mokriwon was very happy to see members meeting after a long time and waved their hands..
“How have you been? No, I can't say this! Because the situation is bad…!”
“Ay, Mok Aw. Still, I guess it's okay to say hello. I guess Namgung-hyung hasn’t changed..”
Zhuge Shan walked shoulder to shoulder with Mo Ri-won and greeted Nangong Jincheon..
Namgung Jincheon furrowed his brows and answered..
“…It's leisurely.”
I said that and turned around..
As Mo Liwon and Zhuge Shan tilted their heads, Seo Ye whispered softly..
“They're saying that because they were excluded from chasing down the Demon of Transcendence. She went on a rampage, saying she would catch it herself..”
“ah….”
“I'm not really a kid?”
Mok Riwon smiled awkwardly..
“W, there is passion. But how did Soje follow you here??”
“That's information gathering. We need a lot of advanced information to save Hao Mun from ruin. The members are also struggling so they are running around on their own..”
Being a munju is also a position that requires a lot of hardship..
Mo Liwon nodded his head, expressed his understanding, and looked at the great lords and dan lords in the distance..
get together and discuss something.
If you listen closely to the sounds, it seems like each person is deciding which area to take charge of..
“…Then let's do that..”
Danghwaseo said and returned to the members..
“We will likely head north to Cheonghae. Time is running out, so let’s leave right away. Would you mind??”
“I'm fine!”
“I can go right away too..”
Mo Ri-won and Zhuge-san spoke, and Il-un and Hye-un also nodded..
In the meantime, Seoye asked.
“Where are you going north??”
“They say there are several roads leading to Xinjiang, so they plan to block them all. They said Kunlun would be in charge of the center..”
“aha.”
“But where is the sword dragon? I think it was right before.”
Danghwaseo looked around his head and asked.
Seoye shrugged his shoulders and answered.
“I got upset and ran away..”
“….”
Danghwaseo’s mouth was tightly shut..

The last city from Qinghai to Xinjiang.
In a safe house there, Pae Woong Chu scratched his stomach..
“I'll be there soon.”
There is no city after this.
If you run like crazy through the mountains and forests for three days, you will reach Xinjiang..
Then, 100,000 generations.
Now that the Shingyo stronghold is here, there is no need to worry about further pursuit..
“I'm tired. I'm very tired..”
Paeungchu put the hand that scratched his belly button in front of his nose and sniffed it..
And then, 'Big!' She made a noise and shook off her hand..
“Hey Taeeulbyeok!”
“What is it.”
“Well, since you left without saying a word, I thought you might have been injured..”
“no injuries.”
After saying that, Taeeulbyeok closed his eyes and continued breathing..
Paeungchu pouted his lips..
Ice Demon (氷魔) Taeeulbyeok.
The Seolgwimun (雪鬼門) to which he belonged was a sect where the blood relatives of the palace owner who escaped from the North Sea Ice Palace in the northern part of the central plain settled in Shingyo and rose to the level of the Six Gates of Magic..
I don't know if it's because of their background, but all those people from Seolgwimun have cold personalities..
It felt like there was a screw missing somewhere and it wasn't fun to talk to, so from Paeungchu's point of view because he liked chatting, there was no one who was as difficult to deal with as this one..
Paeungchu scratched his cheek, threw his head away and opened his mouth..
This time too, the topic was raised first..
“Well, the chase is pretty intense, isn't it??”
“Xinjiang is getting closer.”
“Because of that, time is delayed..”
“It doesn't matter. We will eventually reach Protestantism.”
“Yeonrigan, that guy….”
“come.”
They say even tigers come if you tell them to.
The Sword Demon Yeonrigeon was entering the safe house covered in blood all over his body..
I was able to realize that the owner of that blood, with a face that didn't look the least bit tired, was a Jungwon martial artist..
“The pursuers were annihilated..”
Yeonrigan said with empty eyes..
Paeungchu nodded, then lowered his head with a grunt..
‘It's awkward.’
The only ones who exist are Yeonri-gun and Taeeul-byeok..
Among the six demons, they are the most boring and uncommunicative..
Yeonrigeon goes to the seat next to the Taeeulbyeok, sits cross-legged, and falls into meditation..
‘If only that guy was there….’
I have a taste for going on a rampage with assholes, so I would have had fun bullying them..
Pae Woong Chu felt like he was missing him especially today..
*
Another three days have passed.
Pae Ungchu ran towards Xinjiang with Yeon Li Geon and Taeeul Byeok..
However, the road was not easy.
“It's the chase again.”
The damn pursuer was following me again..
If all went according to plan, they should have already entered Xinjiang and climbed Hundred Thousand Mountains, but the pursuers were constantly rushing in, so the route was delayed indefinitely..
Why are there so many drones in this guy's midfield? It was like watching a cockroach come out again and again no matter how many times you catch it..
“This is because even the weak ones are saved..”
Self-respect, winner takes all.
If the law of nature is for the weak to die and be eliminated and only the strong to survive, they were going against that truth by imposing ridiculous tactics..
This will be the result.
A wrong type of strongman where the weak run rampant without even knowing the subject..
A powerhouse of rags that will collapse with just one swing of a fist..
“Take care of it and go.”
I need to set an example again..
Pae Ung-chu stopped in his tracks and clenched his fists..
The same goes for Taeeulbyeok and Yeonrigun..
They prepared for battle by unleashing their respective magical energy..
“found! Catch it ahhh!!!”
Are they the warriors of Kunlun?.
No, I felt other energies as well..
Judging by the fact that the level was not that high, it seemed like they were the work of a nearby military officer..
‘Should we push it with numbers?!’
Pae Woong Chu ran forward with a long, torn smile..
And then he shot out his magic energy..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
“Ahhhhh!!!”
All at once, the martial arts people of the central plains are wiped out..
Taeeulbyeok and Yeonrigun will handle the remaining personnel as well..
However, the warriors did not give up easily..
Even those with missing limbs were showing their will to fight with their gums as they rushed towards me with their teeth clenched..
“spirit is good!”
The problem is that I don't have any skills..
Paeungchu raises his foot, crawls, and knocks the head of the approaching warrior! I stepped on it and exploded it..
And then I exhaled..
It was that moment.
“Start again….”
Pae Woong Chu’s words stopped..
The same goes for Taeeulbyeok and Yeonrigun..
There is a feeling of energy.
Quite a strong energy, different from the beggars I've met so far..
Plus it's familiar.
Paeungchu closed his eyes and opened his spirits..
Feeling the rush of energy, I began to smile longingly..
“How can it be this elaborate?!”
It's a wave that reminds me of a dark night..
And it is a flag that contains both calmness and ferocity within it..
“celestial life!”
More powerful than then.
It has definitely matured and is now a celestial, ink-dragon energy wave that sends goosebumps down one's spine..
“Should I catch it??”
Taeeulbyeok asked.
Yeonrigan nodded..
“There is no reason to spit out what you put in your mouth..”
Pae Woong Chu came forward..
“no. Taeeulbyeok, you should head to Shingyo..”
“hmm?”
“Isn’t there a command from Lord Sogyo? Lord Sogyo's details have not fully recovered to continue dealing with the two transcendents. So, we need to urgently call the elder..”
Immediately after saying this, Paeungchu also said to Yeonrigan..
“You take the other side. There is one more thing besides Cheonsalseong. Transcendence.”
It's probably an emperor called a sword dragon..
Fortunately, he came with me..
“I'm in charge of a thousand deaths.”
Ah, how can I eat such delicious food with others?.
How can you allow it to be disturbed when the life-or-death fate of a fully ripened heavenly being is right in front of you?.
Pae Ung Chu's smile became indescribably bright..
“Well, isn't that reasonable??”
At moments like this, Pae Woong Chu was a man whose head was spinning more than ever..
