Chapter 3
But there's a problem.
Sagul's black market was a bit better, but it was not an underground arena..
It was completely ruined..
An official with whom I had regular connections criticized me harshly this time, and negative comments were made in many ways..
It is not a permanent loss, but due to poor security, the flow of large customers will be cut off for the time being..
The resulting loss made me feel sick to my stomach, but I also lost all of Bisodon's manpower that I used as an informant, which made me very irritated..
‘I can't post a report until this is resolved..’
Even so, the atmosphere is not good due to continuous failure..
‘It's not a big deal anyway, so it's better to fix it first..’
The problem itself wasn't that big.
All you have to do is save people again, and the underground arena itself is not destroyed, so it will be restored over time..
What bothered me were Amcheon Hoeju and Cheongi, who were very nervous due to repeated failures..
I didn't want to upset that sentiment as much as possible, so I planned to take preliminary action and then report it..
‘First of all, the Indokjong's resourcefulness is not bad, so I guess I should just let it recover. If you do it quickly, I'll finish it with your fingers..’
* * *
Over the past week, Kang Neung-cho has succeeded in completely absorbing Dongseo..
There was nothing better than an overwhelming performance that made history overnight..
Everyone was afraid of him..
There was cautious speculation in the public that Indokjong might be trying to take over Hao Wenju's position..
However, because they were afraid of Hao Wenju, who had reigned for a long time, everyone just swallowed it inside and did not say it out loud..
And two days later, a letter arrives addressed to Indokjong’s name..
The caller was Eumsalnyeo, one of the three..
“He congratulates me and says he will invite me to the banquet, but I am not the only one invited. It even had your name.”
As soon as Kang Neung-cho received the letter, he handed it to Joo Seo-cheon..
Among the contents of the letter was the name of the silent messenger..
“Where?”
“Namhwaru (Namhwaru)).”
The south, in the territory of the evil woman, is an entertainment district..
If the Qing Tower and the Red Tower are the best towers in Zhengzhou, the other towers are concentrated in the entertainment district in the south..
Among them, there is a tower that is comparable to the Blue Tower and the Red Tower, and that is the Nanhwa Tower..
“They say that if you suspect a trap, it doesn't matter if the banquet location is decided here, but what can you do??”
“There's no need to do that. It goes from our side..”
Kang Neungcho nodded..
Namhwaru.
A flaming red and splendid pavilion caught my eye..
It is exceptionally bright even among the entertainment districts of Zhengzhou..
It was made up of ten stories, each floor slightly more than one floor in height, so it was easily visible from afar..
Ju Seo-cheon and Kang Neung-cho headed to Namhwaru as soon as it got dark..
Because I received the message in advance, there were no guests in Namhwaru today..
When they opened the door and entered, courtesans greeted them..
“welcome. Where are the escorts??”
“There is only one person.”
The courtesans and employees were surprised by Kang Neung-cho's answer..
‘You really have great confidence.!’
‘I'm beyond confident and must be crazy..’
‘The red-light district is Lord Lu's territory. And he only brings one guard to the place where the evil woman lives.……’
‘Could it be that an alliance with the Indokjong was actually concluded??’
People showed various reactions within themselves..
But no one said anything or showed any sign..
Everyone looked afraid.
If he had found out that the guard next to him was a silent messenger, he would have definitely been shocked..
“Please come this way..”
I was guided by a courtesan and headed to the stairs..
The higher you go, the more colorful the decorations become..
Since there were no customers, we quickly arrived at the top floor, the tenth floor..
“Lord Rouge. I brought guests.”
“Oh my goodness. Ho ho ho. You came?”
A low laugh was heard and the sliding door opened..
When the door opened, there was sitting a beautiful woman who had just turned 30 and had begun to exude a rich off-white complexion..
“It is an honor to meet the Indokjong and the Muteumsaja, whom I had only heard about through rumors..”
The courtesan who guided me to the name of Silent Lion trembled, but quickly returned to normal and regained her composure..
Ju Seo-cheon and Kang Neung-cho arrived at the top floor of Namhwaru, where no man was allowed to come, and sat down in a suitable place..
“First of all, before we have a conversation, we need to prepare for the banquet. Don't worry, it'll be over soon..”
When Eumsalnyeo raised her right hand, the door next to her opened and the courtesans came rushing in..
There were girls starting from about ten years old to beautiful women about thirty years old, and all of them were of excellent off-white color..
They brought a table with a sumptuous feast and smiled as they carefully placed it in front of them..
“adult~”
“You are so cool.”
Each and every one of them was a courtesan who made men lose their minds..
Her voice was as beautiful as her pale skin..
Among them, there was a courtesan with healthy tanned skin, but not only that, she was full of various personalities..
“Come on, let’s get a drink and get started..”
The woman smiled and spoke in a friendly voice..
“Dear, please get it quickly..”
This is the famous liquor that Namhwaru is proud of..”
The courtesans sitting close to him offered drinks, but neither Ju Seo-cheon nor Kang Neung-cho remained motionless..
I tried to tempt them by showing off their clothes from the side, but neither of them moved..
“shady girl.”
Joo Seocheon looked at Umsalnyeo as if glaring at her..
“I don't want to waste time, so let's get to the point..”
“You are the silent messenger who recently made a name for yourself..”
The woman laughed coldly, covering her mouth with her sleeve..
“It's a waste of time. Do you know why this place is called Namhwaru??”
“be not interested in.”
“Because it burns both body and mind..
Any man can have an unforgettable night, right? If you have any preferences, please tell us. I'll fix it all for you.”
“Hao Wen Ju is my favorite..”
The sly smile disappeared from the corner of the woman's lips..
“You'd better not insult him.”
“So, let’s get to the point. I'm busy.”
“Same thing. shady girl.”
Kang Neungcho agreed..
‘These cheeky things……’
The evil woman bit her lip..
I especially couldn't bear to be ignored by a kid named Indokjong, who wasn't a big deal until recently..
‘If you show even a little bit of your breasts, you'll wag your tail like a dog in heat... … If it weren't for Moonju's orders, he would have put himself under me a long time ago and ripped out that arrogant tongue..’
I barely managed to resist the young urge to kill..
“Since you said that much, let’s get to the point..”
The courtesans who had been acting cute just now bowed and retreated..
Instead of going out, I sat in front of the wall..
“In fact, the reason I have called you all is not for a banquet, but because Lord Hao Wen has something to say. As you may know, the pigs and poisonous snakes you killed were originally Lord Hao Wen's limbs, including mine..”
“so?”
“First of all, I'm afraid you may misunderstand, but I'm not calling you to blame you for killing them. In Haomen, or rather, in the Black Island, the weak are bound to die. The reason I called these two people was to propose that they take over the positions in place of Bisodon and Doxageom..”
“hmm.”
Kang Neungcho scratched his chin..
“As a senior, I would like to advise you that it would be better to accept it and not fall into foolish conceit..”
All three figures from the past received offers to ascend to power..
Of course they scoffed and said what nonsense they were talking about, and soon they realized how presumptuous they had been..
“Lord Hao Wen does not show himself, but ……”
“be not interested in.”
The two men answered at the same time as if they had made a promise..
“Are you guys dating??”
With that, the girl's patience was gone..
My face was distorted like a mop..
“And, if you don't show up, you don't show anything..”
Excited. Excited. Exciting.
My heart is racing. My body was full of excitement..
A twisted smile spread across my lips..
The girl was about to ask what she was talking about, but she closed her mouth..
In those eyes, 'How?' There was a question:.
Joo Seocheon slowly stood up from his place and turned his head to the left..
At the end of the line of sight was a courtesan sitting..
“……foot.”
The mysterious beauty covered her mouth and let out a laugh..
Her skin was as white as snow and her sleeves were unusually long..
Just looking at her appearance, she appears to be a young woman, but strangely enough, she exudes a lusty color similar to that of a married woman..
“Puhuhu… … Cluck cluck!”
‘found.’
Amcheonhoe Cheon Seonseong, Hao Wenju.
Not much is known about her.
As much as he controlled information, he was also good at hiding things about himself..
All that is known is that Hao Wenzhou is a great beauty..
And it was about martial arts..
“Baby, you noticed it well..”
Hao Wenzhou Tianxian smiled coquettishly and said,.
The ones who were surprised by those words were the courtesans around them..
“Even if I said it was a silent lion, I looked at it funny because I thought it was at the level of blackness anyway, but it's a lot better than I thought..”
When Cheon Seon got up from his place and took a step forward, Eumsalnyeo stood up, stepped to the side, and bowed down..
Until then, the courtesans were in a daze, but later they realized something and looked surprised..
“Originally, I was going to tear them limb from limb as compensation for messing up the underground arena.……”
Cheon Seon took out a long bamboo stick, put it in his mouth, and lit it..
“Wow……”
Thick smoke flowed from between his thick lips..
“I changed my mind a bit.”
“how?”
“I thought it was a transcendent climax, but I didn't know it would be so great with Hwakyeong in front of it..
No matter how roughly you hide it, it's not normal for you to feel uncomfortable with me. I'll praise you.”
“Tuesday, Tuesday……”
The girl was startled and muttered without realizing it..
From her point of view, after hanging on for almost her entire life and barely reaching the peak, the level of Hwa-gyeong was far away..
I thought it was great at best, but it turned out to be beyond my imagination..
If you are ahead of Hwagyeong, it means that not only your name is known, but you are capable of entering the world's 100 greatest experts..
“I am a surprisingly generous person. It's unfortunate that you recently ruined your business, but considering your abilities,……”
“haha.”
Laughter came out inadvertently.
“why are you laughing?”
Cheon Seon asked with a smile on his lips..
But those eyes weren't smiling.
“If that laugh is for an acceptable reason, I'll let it go, but if not, you'll regret it..”
“No, I think it's more worth doing than I thought..”
“I guess I don't believe in the things hidden in the ceiling.?”
An eerie light flowed through narrowed eyes..
Joo Seo-cheon looked into Cheon-seon's eyes without answering..
Cheon Seon also silently glared at Joo Seocheon..
time passes slowly.
I can hear the pulse.
Beads of sweat flowed from someone's forehead and fell slowly..
And the moment it fell, Cheon-seon's eyes closed..
Paang!
Joo Seocheon did not miss that moment..
I fired as if I had been waiting for the dagger that fell from my sleeve..
The razor blade ripped a hole in the atmosphere and left a long trail behind..
And the moment it reaches the target's neck.
Time, which had almost stopped, returned to its original state, and Cheon-seon hit the dagger with the pole in his hand and bounced it away..
Whirling!
The dagger that bounced off spun in the air..
Below them, Joo Seocheon kicked the ground and launched himself..
“Kangneungcho!”
When his name was called, Kang Neungchao had already stood up and pulled out the sword hanging from his waist..
“I leave it to the evil woman.!”
Cooung!
The ceiling above the road leading to Cheon-seon suddenly went out..
What came out of the hole, which had been cut cleanly as if it had been cut with a knife, was a major holding a fetus and a Wolosam sword that had not been used for a while..
Joo Seocheon, who shot forward, received the fetus from the major and poured out all his strength as if he had been waiting..
Rumbling!
A roar like a thunderbolt erupts..
Next, the energy pouring out of the dantian condensed to create strong energy..
Literally in a moment.
At the same time, the river was violently spinning and vibrating, emitting a humming sound..
‘Cheonseon!’
The ghosts said that the important thing in assassination is to catch the enemy off guard and deceive him..
The assassination failed as soon as the intention was discovered, so he advised to divert the attention of the enemy or hide it completely..
So I deliberately lied and deceived you from the moment we first met..
If you are a heavenly being who governs and values information, you will definitely investigate the silent messenger..
What awaits her is information that the silent messenger is an ‘assassin’..
It starts from here.
Even if Heavenly Immortal had reached the level of a sword demon, it would not have been known and could have been used, but it was not at that level..
A transcendent assassin close to the realm of fire.
Instilled and convinced the information.
Then, they hid ghosts in the ceiling and made it look like they had prepared a secret trick..
‘I think it's worth doing?’
gibberish!
I know how scary Amcheonhoe is..
He also clearly knew the meticulousness and strength of the leader of the Chilseongsa Temple..
The moment you underestimate them, you lose..
I kept that in mind, so I thought about it several times and made a plan..
‘Jaha!’
Fake everything and end it in one blow.
‘Gaebyeok!’
A sword imbued with a rotating force is fired..
The air in its path bursts and tears, making an angry sound..
Surprisingly, Cheon-seon, who was facing the sword play, reacted even before his head could understand it..
‘What……’
Cheonseon’s Seomseom Ok rises quickly..
His characteristic feature was that his wrists were pale, starting from his fingertips..
The body sensed danger and reacted, emitting strong force to attack the powerful force that came right in front of the nose..
Kwa-ang!
There was a loud noise that made my head tremble..
At the same time, the river and the river collided, creating a shock wave..
The aftereffects of that power became waves and swept the surroundings..
“Wow!”
The courtesans standing on the wall were unable to withstand the shock wave and flew off, rolling violently on the floor..
Unfortunately, the aftermath is not over yet..
The faintly purple-tinged black river and the dazzlingly white Yangtze river face each other, creating a mess in the surroundings..
“……?”
Cheon Seon's eyes became the size of a flower lantern..
Rather than the magical power of the volcanic wave that passed through my mind, I was amazed by the ignorant power that spewed out from the sword..
A moan naturally flows out of my mouth..
Questions and disbelief appeared in my mind at the same time..
‘Nonsense!’
Cheon-seon appears to be a mysterious spirit, but his actual age is much older..
Aging was slowed down when I ascended to the Hwagyeong level, but it was also because I trained in magic and coloring techniques like Yin Salnyeo..
The number of men who have taken their lives by sucking out their vitality easily exceeds four digits..
In reality, she is an old woman who lived at the same time as the Sangcheonjwa, and the amount of internal power she has accumulated is not normal..
Above all, after joining the Amcheonhoe, I received constant support with elixirs and vital energy, and was able to surpass the normal level..
But what on earth is going on?!
No matter how hastily it was pulled up, it received an amount of attack power that could not be countered by anyone other than the Sangcheonjwajwa..
No, I'm pushing it beyond accepting it..
I was shocked by that fact, but I wasn't surprised..
“profit!”
I raised my right hand up..
The Geom River, which was adjacent to the Yangtze River, also changed direction due to its force..
Even though the sword strike aimed at the forehead was the first to exert all its might, it was unable to pierce the entire white wall..
A moan came out of Cheon-seon's mouth as his strength suddenly increased..
I used so much force that my insides felt numb..
Fortunately, despite the misfortune, the violent collision stopped as the river changed direction, and the resulting shock wave disappeared..
But it's not easy to feel relieved.
The attack is not over.
The moment when the body is about to fall backwards due to impact.
“Whoop!”
Ju Seo-cheon's right arm muscles swelled and blue veins popped out..
It looks painful just looking at it.
The sword that bounced upward toward the ceiling stopped like a lie and eventually fell terrifyingly downward..
Cheon- seon, who saw the sword coming down with the force of splitting his head, screamed inwardly and tried to hit it with his double sword..
‘You were aiming for this!’
There is a limit to the strength that has been raised in a hurry..
Even if you succeed in blocking it, a gap will appear later..
Moreover, due to the blow just now, the body was pushed out and stood at an angle..
If it's normal, you can't produce proper strength..
A sword that gave off a force that seemed as if it would tear everything apart.).
At that moment, Cheon Seon laughed as if it was absurd..
“under……?”
Where had the momentum from just now gone? I caught the sight of a sword floating like a cloud..
Instead, what was seen was the left arm being pushed back hard and a fist clenched..
‘Heocho, Heocho, Heocho, Heocho!’
Bisu, Jahagaebyeok, and Naehaebeok are all tricks of the eye..
Squeeze out the bottom line that was too much for a moment..
I raised the miasma obtained from poisonous blood grains and Tangga..
The energy that wells up from below the navel passes through the heavenly reservoir near the chest and heads toward heaven..
Soon, Goktaek (曲澤), Geukmun (邸門), Gansa (間使), Naegwan (內關), Daereung (大陵), Nogung (勞宮), and Sugweumsim circumcision up to the middle chung at the tip of the finger. (Hands and Yin) passed through..
There is no strength left in the right hand that seemed to have put all its effort into it..
Focus all your senses on your left hand..
Muscles swell and then subside.
Heat was released as contraction and relaxation repeated..
Green Eyes Only Poison Gong's Ilseong is dyed with poison and becomes resistant, and his opposite sex can handle poison freely..
Starting with Samsung, you can only hit at close range, so if you make contact, you will be addicted..
It wasn't like there was any kind of herbivorousness, but at this moment, the fist that could threaten one's life was completed..
Shu chou shoot!
Apply rotational force by twisting your waist and shoulders, and increase the power as speed increases..
The fist that fell with a refreshing explosion was reminiscent of a mace..
I try my best to stop it, but no matter how much superhuman reflexes and inaction I have, it is impossible..
The hands are trying to block the top of the head, and the body is erected at an angle, floating in the air, unable to stand or lie down..
And a fist came down on the open abdomen as if welcoming..
Ku-ang!
The mace fell..
The shock wave was transmitted throughout the entire body..
The skin that has become smooth due to regular treatment becomes soft, and the shock spreads underneath it..
“Hahahaha …… !”
Cheon-seon's back is curved like a bow..
Blood spurted out of the open mouth and dispersed like mist..
The white steel sword that wrapped around my hand could not overcome the pain and shattered into pieces and flew into the air..
Kwaaang-!
The moment the bent back spread again, a loud noise erupted and the floor that supported Choi Sang-chung cracked..
The cracks drawn like a spider's web soon spread throughout the entire area, and the ground where the lines were had turned into a circle..
Wow!
The courtesans waiting downstairs screamed and retreated when the ceiling suddenly went out..
Cheon-seon, who fell to the ninth floor, felt despair at the sensation of his broken vertebrae and coughed up blood..
I haven't been hurt once since I climbed Hwagyeong..
As I tasted the forgotten pain again, I was about to scream..
But before that, a swear word came out..
“this… … bitch……!”
Joo Seo-cheon was seen clenching his fist while leaning his right shoulder back..
“There's still one step left.”
spare no effort.
There is no room for that..
I pour my all into each one and swing my fist..
Those eyes were full of the intention to kill..
‘why?’
Cheon-seon met those eyes and was puzzled..
That's something beyond murderous intent..
I don't know why, but I saw him as an enemy, or something more..
He seemed resentful, as if he was saying he lived for this moment..
Have you held a grudge without knowing it??
Before the question can be resolved, the mace falls again..
Wonderfully clean lines.
The destination was a face that could no longer be blocked..
The moment my fist lightly pressed against the bridge of my nose, a roar reminiscent of lightning erupted again and the floor of the old floor went out..
“Wow!!”
Only the center of the tenth floor floor was extinguished, but this time it was different..
The entire old floor was destroyed..
The courtesans above him fell eight stories..
The courtesans on the eighth floor also screamed at the sudden lightning strike..
The dust cloud was so thick that it was difficult to see clearly in front, and the courtesans were coughing in the dust cloud..
As the shock waves from the successive punches were received, the pillars of Namhwaru also squeaked uneasily..
“……”
The woman standing at the end of the top floor looked down..
His face had turned unpleasantly pale..
‘what the hell happened……’
It happened so quickly that my mind couldn't keep up..
I wondered if the silent lion was this strong..
As she looked down at the rising cloud of dust, she felt an eerie feeling and quickly stepped back..
A sword streak passed by where I was standing just moments ago..
The eumsalnyeo raised her head and identified the owner of the sword..
“Indigo species……!”
“I have a good feeling.”
Unlike Umsalnyeo, who had a bad complexion, Kang Neungcho did not show any significant changes..
was still blunt.
“If you surrender obediently, I'll spare your life..”
“Hmph, would I believe you if you were crazy??”
When the eumsalnyeo spread her palm wide as if it were no problem, a long wind was shot out..
As if Kang Neung-cho had predicted, he swung his sword widely and created wind to cancel out the storm..
If you look at the fields alone, they are somewhat similar..
Kang Neung Cho was superior in martial arts such as Cho Sik, but in terms of internal skills, she was Eumsalnyeo..
“Hao Wenzhou is dead..”
Kang Neungcho glanced at the hole in the floor..
“Haomun is now led by me..”
“Ho ho ho ho!”
The eumsal girl arched her back and laughed unpleasantly..
“I think Hao Wen-ju will die from something like this.?”
Kang Neung-cho blinked his eyes in surprise as his attitude was different from his facial expression..
“You have no idea how much of a monster Hao Wenzhou is. The world was being deceived by Munju. she is not a person.”
Unlike his confidence, he seemed afraid of something..
The destination of that fear is Hao Wen Ju..
It was a heavenly gift.
Not long after, Kang Neungcho frowned..
As Yin-salnyeo said, it was Hao Wen-ju who appeared when the dust cloud that obscured the view cleared..
“Please, I'll have to be satisfied with the things below.……”
Her voice was unusually trembling..
* * *
Cheon Seon covered his face with white jade..
The fierce eyes seen between the fingers were noticeable..
“Dare, dare, dare! Not anywhere else but your face!”
It was an anger that made me pause just by hearing it..
I see red bloodshot eyes..
Skin that had lost elasticity was visible around it..
The moment I tried to strike him in the face, a white-colored self-defense force came out and was blocked..
Even if it had the same power as the Great Sea, it could not break the membrane formed by strong energy..
In addition, I had to step back for a while because Cheon-seon was pushing the membrane as it expanded..
“What a bitch.!”
Joo Seocheon stuck out his tongue and cursed..
Even though his vertebrae were broken and internal injuries were inflicted, he managed to fight back with self-defense and avoid the finishing blow..
“you!”
Without dropping his gaze from Ju Seo-cheon, Cheon-seon stretched out his arms to the side and grabbed the courtesan nearby..
“Wow……”
Something bizarre happened.
The scream that was about to get louder stopped, and the courtesan who owned the voice instantly turned into a mummy..
Even his black hair turned white like an old man's, and even after washing his eyes and looking for his flesh, it was impossible to find it, as if he had starved for a long time..
At the same time, Chen Xian’s face also changed..
Skin that had lost elasticity and was wrinkled returned to its original state..
Ju Seo-cheon saw that and muttered inadvertently..
“Minor magic skills)……”
The ultimate yin and the ultimate demon.!
It is a renowned martial arts skill that every magician desires, and its viciousness is comparable to that of the Six Great Geumgongs..
It doesn't matter if your hands turn white when you practice, or if your yin energy is comparable to the ice-white kidney of the North Sea..
That was just a feature..
What was truly infamous was the training method..
If yang is male, yin is female..
Since the source of Sosu Demon Gong is Yin energy, in order to fill this Yin energy, it had to be taken from a woman..
They took it because they liked it, but in reality, they took it away and put it to death like the Great Law of Heupseong..
Herein lies the secret to maintaining youthfulness that approaches eternity even at the age of over 70..
Also, the younger the person to be preyed upon, the better, and it was even better if they did not lose their virginity..
“Don't think you'll die quietly.”
Joo Seo-cheon glanced at Cheon-seon from head to toe, then looked up at the ceiling and shouted..
“Restrict access from those around you, and deal with anything that looks suspicious.!”
I felt the gathered figures moving..
“What on earth are you doing??”
Cheon Seon asked with a voice full of anger..
“Who do you think it is??”
Joo Seo-cheon glanced at Cheon-seon again with sharply opened eyes..
Instead of looking at the skin that was visible due to the flowing clothes, I saw a curved back or a hand emitting sexual energy..
‘Not only had I never heard of Geomseon having a successor, but he also practiced poison techniques at a high level.?”
‘Indeed, Cheon Seon-seong.’
I am not in charge of the information of the Amcheonhoe for nothing..
In terms of the amount of information, it was above heaven..
I only saw it once during the desperate moment of the raid, but I immediately recognized Geomcho's identity..
“Who is it? Silent lion.”
With the horse, I put my weight on my feet using the Cheongeunchu technique..
The fetus, which was stuck on the floor, bounced on impact and spun brilliantly until it was caught in Joo Seo-cheon's hand..
“Judging by the wrinkles that appeared earlier, it looks like you've used up a lot of your yin energy, but I'll be okay.?”
“I was a little hurt because I was careless, but it was nothing.……”
“That's right?”
I threw myself away as I stopped speaking..
Even though he had used up a lot of his internal energy just a moment ago, his movements were like lightning..
“No way!”
Cheon Seon snorted and struck away the sword aimed at his neck with the blade of his hand..
“under!”
A pure white haze flowed from the blade of the hand and enveloped the sword..
Even the Yuewu Three Swords could not withstand the extremely negative energy of the Sosu Demonic Gong and a chill began to form..
pababat!
It started to slowly freeze, but he didn't pay any attention to it and used the front part of the Twenty-Four Plum Blossom Sword Technique..
Cheon Seon blocked the sword that unfolded brilliantly while recalling in his mind the personal information of the previous generation and the current Maehwa Geomsu..
The hand movements that block herbivores in place without dodging at all are jaw-dropping..
As if that wasn't enough, the extreme negative energy emitted from the hand gradually increased and attempted to freeze the fetus..
Ju Seo-cheon, who saw the sword slowly freezing, quickly stepped back and widened the distance between him and Cheon-seon..
“Ho ho ho.”
I laughed loudly as if it were heavenly..
“Hao Wen Zhou.”
Joo Seocheon lightly swung his sword and shook off the frost..
“I respect you for pretending like nothing is wrong..”
I was skeptical at first, but the exchange of offense and defense just made it clear..
Cheon Seon’s physical condition is not normal..
Even if it was a punch, didn't you get hit with all your might while you were defenseless?.
If you suffer that much internal injury and are healed by absorbing negative energy, Sosu Demonic Attack is the best magical attack in the world..
“Do you know that you haven’t moved a single step since a while ago??”
“……”
Cheon Seon was about to say something but closed his mouth..
Instead, his face was horribly distorted..
My spine was broken and it was difficult to even straighten my back..
I couldn't even stand without using internal force to control the muscles around me..
The internal organs in my abdomen, which had been pierced head-on, were all messed up, and the pain I felt throughout my body was unusual..
“amazing. It's really amazing.”
It was pure admiration, not sarcasm..
“That's why I hate your dark club.”
“What……!”
Puuk!
Cheon Seon widened his eyes..
A name that makes you doubt your ears.
That momentary turmoil paralyzed my otherwise poor judgment..
When I opened my eyes, I felt extreme pain and saw a dagger sticking out from my back, creating a hole in my solar plexus..
“Cough!”
Cheon-seon coughed up blood and slowly turned his head back..
There stood a major with an indifferent expression..
‘Hiding upstairs... … No, if you are a girl……!’
“It’s impossible, Cheon-seon.”
Lightning struck my mind.
At the second shocking statement, this time a hole was pierced in my heart..
A frost-covered sword pierced from the front and split open the flesh on my back..
The hand that was trying to grab the major eventually fell weakly..
“do… … how… … how……?”
As he was in charge of information, Cheon Seon's shock was even greater..
Amcheonhoe was strictly controlled..
The structure of Chilseongsa Temple and the names of its leaders are known by their titles, but few people know exactly what they do..
Only a few people know that Tian Xian is Hao Wen Zhou..
But it was not an insider, but an outsider who knew it..
It's not a problem, it's just Jaha's inspection..
The statement just now was one of the most confidential secrets of the Dark Heaven Society..
“I'll send you away soon so you won't be bored in the afterlife. And then tell the inspector who will come later that you enjoyed the elixir..”
The face, distorted by pain, gradually spread into shock..
“And you were looking for the guy who buried the devil in the tomb, right? That's me.”
This fact needs to be known.
The man in front of me was someone who would become the biggest threat in the future..
But I couldn't put the thought into words..
Grumbling.
Namhwaru caught fire.
The building, which was red as if it would burst into flames at any moment, was actually engulfed in fire and burning brightly..
“It's fire!”
Red-hot flames flickered like the tongue of an evil spirit and engulfed the surroundings..
Instead of moonlight, lights illuminated the surroundings..
They tried to put it out, but the fire spread so quickly that people stamped their feet, not knowing what to do..
Fortunately, the fire did not catch on to other buildings as it was far away from the surrounding buildings..
“I heard that someone rented it out today.……”
“Something must have happened!”
“oh my! It was my dream to sleep there!”
Some of the men among the onlookers felt very sad..
“Hey, this isn't that.?”
“It's an indigo species.?”
“Isn’t it known to everyone that Namhwaru is a place where evil women live? I just happened to pay the lease, so it’s clear……”
gulp.
Arsenic Don, Venomous Snake Sword, Eomsalnyeo.
The three men who ruled the city in the past were no longer able to make a name for themselves and disappeared into the back of the night's history..
In the past, there were many fights over power in Jeongju, but few were as tumultuous as this one..
Indokjong, Kangneungcho.
People thought of that name instead of the trio..
There are no pigs, poisonous snakes or nympho..
The person standing on it was Dokjong..
In the end, the fire that illuminated the town all night instead of the moonlight stopped only after the entire building burned down..
When the sun rose the next day, what was seen was Namhwaru reduced to ashes and a corpse so burned that its face was unrecognizable..
Ju Seo-cheon and Kang Neung-cho returned safely to Cheongru..
Cheon Seon’s life was completely ended..
Not only did he pierce his heart, but he also cut off his neck as a confirmed kill..
Later, in preparation for the Amcheonhoe coming to investigate, the body was brought and incinerated separately, and in the process, some loot was obtained..
The woman Yin who was confronting her on the top floor surrendered as soon as she confirmed that Hao Wen-ju was dead..
He was in disbelief when he heard the news of the death of Hao Wen-ju, a monster, but resigned after seeing the body in person..
For your information, I had no intention of saving it..
Since the woman was the only witness, she had to be dealt with for the sake of confidentiality..
Kang Neung-cho put Eumsalnyeo in the room next to where Doxageom was imprisoned..
And he promised to torture me and then kill me..
In fact, two days later, Msalnyeo died while being tortured..
Fortunately, there were no other witnesses..
The courtesans who were there that night fled as soon as the uproar broke out..
Ghosts also dealt with people presumed to be informants..
As Namhwaru burned down and Eumsalnyeo's whereabouts became unclear, several forces trying to cross over to the south took notice..
But everyone just watched and didn't come forward..
It was because I was afraid of the culprit who burned down Namhwaru, including Eumsalnyeo..
Indokjong, Kangneungcho!
Now there is no one in Jeongju, or even Heukdo, who does not know that name..
I also knew children living under bridges..
A loser who gained everything through force alone.).
Everyone shuddered at the record set in just a few days..
In Jeongju, the center of the Black Island, even the forces that said they would use some force did not dare to attack and stayed calm..
I didn't want to touch it because I thought it might be sensitive since it hadn't been long since the confrontation with the trio ended..
Accordingly, Gangneungcho moved actively as if he had been waiting and worked to reorganize his forces..
The inside of the office was full of bundles of paper..
“I got haggard while I wasn't seeing you..”
The blackness under the eyes was proof of the hard work that had been going on..
“Welcome.”
Kang Neungcho put down the brush he was holding for a moment..
“Since I got the position I wanted, I could rest for a bit, but as soon as it was over, I was so busy with work instead of toasting..”
Joo Seocheon clicked his tongue in admiration..
It's literally poison itself. He is a man worthy of the title..
“Have you found out anything about Hao Wen-ju??”
A few days ago, I tortured a woman who was murdered and obtained information from her..
I was not interested in hidden goods..
What I wanted was information about Hao Wen-ju of the previous era..
“Of course, the courtesan of Namhwaru had a false identity, and there were no traces left behind. I wonder if it really existed.”
I thought there was a secret office, but there wasn't either..
It is said that Eumsalnyeo usually receives orders through letters, or if she wants to meet, Cheonseon comes to see her on her own..
“Is that so too?.”
Joo Seocheon didn't expect that much either..
There is no way a woman as meticulous as Cheon-seon would hide something in a place as big as Jeongju..
Perhaps Cheon Seon-seong's informants are also out of town and carrying out other missions..
“Do you plan to leave the entertainment district as is??”
“okay. Because the underground arena or black market alone is too much. I'm going to focus only on this.”
Not one place, but two places.
Managing two of the biggest sources of income was not normal..
It's Qinglu and Hongru. It's not that difficult because there's Luju and the pimp..
The underground arena in the east is particularly short of people, so it will take time and effort to relocate and manage it..
“If you want, I can go to the entertainment district. Anyway, if someone took a position there, I was planning to subdue them like Hao Wenju before..”
“No, that's enough. take it.”
It's not bad to leave it to the king, but it's very risky..
If he is involved, Joo Seo-cheon's original identity will be revealed..
Above all, the gold top itself could have suffered damage..
‘Amcheonhoe.’
Not even the Seven Star Soldiers, but the leader, Cheon Seon, lost his life..
He was also the head of the Amcheonhoe who was in charge of information..
Amcheonhoe lost its eyes and ears..
There is no result more satisfactory than this..
This alone frees movement.
‘It's when Cheonki starts to feel strange and starts to move..’
Chen Xian did not report to take precautionary measures..
This is because they do not find it strange that internal affairs that periodically challenge the throne and cause uproar are caused. Above all, I didn't want to be criticized for no reason..
Ju Seo-cheon appointed an agent named In Dok-jong to make Cheon Seon not be wary..
As a silent messenger, I deliberately handed over the choice while people were watching, as if asking me to make a decision..
He might not move right now, but if he was that quick, he would probably move by tonight at the latest..
So, I erased all traces of concern..
‘It would be nice if I could give the entertainment district to the King of Sang, but I can't do that. The risk is too great compared to the gain.’
The profits of the entertainment district cannot be ignored, but the more problematic issue was that the gold merchants became the target of the Dark Heaven Association..
Aren’t you still being watched?.
“Are you leaving??”
“Hoo.”
Joo Seocheon looked like he knew how..
“If you don't have good sense, you won't be able to survive on the dark island. More than anything, I don't understand why they made such a fuss because they wanted to hide from ghosts. No, is that a lie too?.”
I didn't see the entire fight, but I did see the strength at the top level..
An assassin on the verge of death. never heard of.
“Well, I guess it doesn't matter. Now I want you to tell me how I can help. Still, if you have a small wish, I hope you can see it as this week is busy..”
“haha.”
Joo Seocheon couldn't help but laugh..
“What's so funny?”
“It is nothing.”
Kang Neung-cho was not as bad a person as I thought..
As I was preparing to leave, the thing I was most worried about was my relationship with Kang Neung-cho..
It doesn't matter since my identity is completely hidden anyway..
Jaha Gaebyeok was so fast that I didn’t think I saw him..
It's not a perfect purple color, but it's amazing that he can see the faint light and usually other warriors can't recognize it..
Anyway, originally I was going to end the relationship when I left..
However, the ambitious person who tried to set up a scarecrow was more talented than expected, so I was worried about what to do..
It's not a bad thing if you end up in debt to Hao Wen-ju and get help later..
It's not for nothing that Tian Xian sat down as Lord Hao Wen for a long time..
As far as information power is concerned, it is comparable to openness..
“Not right now. I hope you can help me someday when I contact you..”
“Don't do that.”
“and……”
Just!
I made a sound by hitting my thumb and middle finger together..
Then, two ghosts appeared from a place where there was nothing and stood next to Kang Neung-cho..
“I'll escort you around, so feel free to use it. I'll do anything except it hurts me..”
Not long ago, there was a decisive opportunity to end my worries..
At the same time as Kang Neung Elementary School was reorganizing itself, it took in young children who were barely surviving on the streets..
They were all orphans without parents, and because of long-term hunger, they did not even have the strength to work..
After trying to figure out what was going on, I smiled happily..
“Now that you have more than one child in charge, shouldn’t you be careful of yourself, Mr. Godfather?.”
“…… He's not even called a godfather..”
Kang Neungcho’s eyebrows were bent..
“And, it is not my will. support her will.”
The man sitting in the office chair muttered with a vaguely nostalgic look on his face..
