Chapter 401

Episode 401 Sorry, but this is just the beginning.

The expressions of the three hostages suddenly hardened at the words they heard from outside..

It's the correct answer?

If they knew how to think, there's no way the rescue team that came to rescue them would have knocked on their door so kindly, right? They must have broken down the door and entered by surprise..

The woman's face was clearly filled with joy..

‘shit! It's the person over there.!’

Yang Zhong let out a deep sigh..

‘But who is it that I like so much??’

It's good.

When the door opened, Ian launched himself at the person standing in front of him..

“master!”

I just got caught up in Geommugeuk without any hesitation..

“I missed you!”

I've been embraced by Geommugeuk many times in the past, but I've never been as happy and happy as I was today..

Yes, the answer has come!

No, what if the answer is wrong? It's a sword dance. A sword dance performance is perfect for this difficult situation..

The three people who were watching this were scared by the appearance of new people, but at the same time they were jealous of the man..

‘Who the hell is this beautiful woman that he likes so much??’

Looking at his face, he was a young and handsome man..

Ian belatedly found Chwima standing behind the sword dance and watching him..

“oh! Master!”

Ian's face turned red as he was startled and fell away from the sword dance..

A woman who was thinking about cutting off her arm or her neck just a moment ago showed such a shy attitude.!

But that wasn't the problem for the three of them now..

‘hobby?’

The three people who were captured looked at each other with puzzled expressions. They say, 'Did I hear wrong?' They looked at each other with expressions like this. Because there was only one person they knew of..

Their eyes turned to Chuma again, hoping that they had misheard..

The handsome middle-aged man had a presence that somehow attracted attention even though he did not reveal any special prayers. Their gaze, which had a vaguely decadent feel and empty eyes, turned to the liquor bottle on their waist..

I didn't know anything else, but I knew that for sure. The poisonous weapon of intoxication is a liquor bottle..

‘You didn't hear wrong.!’

Their hearts became cold.

‘Mazon came? Here? Why on earth?’

The fear of Mazon in the martial arts world was truly enormous. When Chuma glanced at them, the three lowered their heads and avoided eye contact..

Chwima looked at the sword dance. Those eyes said this.

I get treated badly by you, this is who I am when I go out..

Geommugeuk smiled at him. Even though he acts calm on the outside, he knows that he is not in a good mood, so he tries to smile a lot at Chuma..

Geommugeuk asked Ian.

“Who on earth were you trying to save??”

“also! You know without me having to tell you..”

Ian told me why he came here. It started when I happened to meet a woman on my way to the place where the ghost's younger brother, Seojin, was..

“……I ended up here after getting a glass of water and listening to the story. It's like drinking really expensive water..”

I know sword dance. This clearly explains the person Ian is..

Just because it was a guard, he didn't throw himself into the effort to save himself. Because he is this kind of person, he willingly sacrificed himself..

“Was it always this difficult to deal with something like this? I always thought it was easy because you always get things done quickly..”

Ian looked at the three people he had kidnapped and sighed. It was good until I caught it. I thought we could just do a nice hostage exchange and take the rescued people with us..

“How could you know? They would even abandon their own children. So I was thinking about killing them and just leaving..”

Those words, which are not even in my heart, are meant to listen to the three people who were captured. No matter how it was handled, an atmosphere of fear had to be created..

Now the sword dance has taken over the situation..

“Can you leave the work to me from now on??”

“Please take care of it!”

It's a sword dance, so what's there to worry about? It's unlikely, but even if I mess up everything, who cares? To her, sword dance was something like that..

Geommugeuk approached the three people and whispered quietly..

“You really would have been in big trouble if I hadn't come. That pretty girl, you don't know how scary she is..”

Ian said from behind.

“I can hear everything.”

At this time, the three people were thinking similar things..

‘Who on earth is this young man? Is it a subordinate of a hobbyist??’

For some reason, it didn't seem like that. Judging by the fact that the woman called herself a master, it seems like her status is high.….

However, no matter how I looked at it, it didn't feel like I had learned martial arts at all. The look and feel is exactly that of a prestigious family. It is said that a son of a noble family hangs out with the Majon and commits such acts.?

Anyway, what had to be done was decided. Yang Jung decided that he must somehow survive by using this variable..

‘Use this guy to survive..’

Yang Zhong asked politely..

“Who are you from Sohyeop??”

He tried to suppress his desire to yell at me, asking who are you again, and tried to be as polite as possible..

“He is your lifesaver.”

I couldn't understand it, but they said they would save my life anyway, so I thought it was time..

“If you save me, I'll give you whatever you want..”

“whatever?”

“exactly. If you want money, I will give you money, and if you want martial arts, I will teach you the martial arts of the text. If you want fame, I'll give you fame..”

First of all, I made too many promises that I didn't know would work or not. My life is at stake right now, so what can they say??

Ian, who was behind him, smiled slightly. Who are you giving money to and who are you going to teach martial arts to? Moreover, your reputation would not be as great as that of all the members of your sect combined..

“You can't give me all three.?”

“I'll give you all three.!”

But soon the sword dance performance became viewed with suspicion..

“But you said your father refused to exchange hostages? Would a person like that give me money and teach me martial arts??”

“that……!”

Really, this was the most shameful and upsetting part of Yang Zhong's life..

At that time, Geommugeuk hinted at a suggestion..

“How about this instead? Tell us where the people we need to save are trapped. Then we will save it. Then we can release you. After all, our goal is to save those people..”

The moment Ian heard those words, he knew.

‘ah! That was the correct answer.’

Coax the author to find out where they are trapped and rescue them yourself..

‘Why didn't I think of this simple idea??’

Of course, this was a plan I should have thought of first. But surprisingly I didn't.

Swap this side and that side. Once I was focused on this, I couldn't think of anything else. The other person was a heartless person who would even give up his children, but he was only thinking about making a fair exchange. There was no way things would go as planned like this..

If the sword dance drama hadn't come, I would have been kicking the blanket off in the future, saying, 'Oh, why didn't I think of that?'.

‘As expected, I feel at ease because I am with Sogyoju..’

At that time, Ian made eye contact with Chuma. Chuma looked like he was saying, ‘I know how you feel.’.

Now I'm just casually looking around like this, but what if it was a childish leader? What if you have to follow that childish accident and take care of it? It's something I really don't want to think about..

“First of all, you have to live and see.?”

The appeasement of the sword dance was also for Ian. She will definitely want to save the captured woman's husband and other people..

The problem is that even if Yang Zhong is released, the Northern Blood Gate will never release them. If I thought I was going to release them, I would have agreed to the hostage exchange in the first place..

Ian said that they gathered people with unique constitutions, so it seems like they are testing something..

I'm sure he's planning something that shouldn't be revealed to the outside world..

Yang Joong, who was worried, spoke carefully..

“Those people have probably already moved on..”

He was already halfway there..

“You know where they moved it?”

Of course, there were places where Yangjung could be roughly guessed..

“Even if you tell me, they won't be able to save you because the security is so tight..”

Geommugeuk looked back at Chuma and said.

“I didn't hear who it was earlier.?”

Yang Zhong's heart began to pound. I was afraid of drunkenness, and I was afraid that I would eventually confess..

“Besides, it's better for you if we go and get caught, right? why? Are you afraid of being treated like a traitor? You can say that later. They told us the location to catch us..”

The sword dance even provided a way out..

“If you really tell me, you'll let us go.?”

“Release it.”

“How can you believe that??”

“'Cause I promise I'll let you go.”

Looking at those clear eyes and this good-looking face, I felt like he would definitely keep his promise. But how can you trust someone based on impressions alone? Come to think of it, I still don't know who this person is..

As the worries continued, Geommugeuk calmly turned around..

“Then just die. What are you doing? Kill all three!”

At the command of the sword dance, Ian drew his sword and approached the three people. Yangjung shouted urgently as the strong life force without hesitation came rushing out..

“I'll tell you!”

Yangjung eventually confessed the location. Not just one place, but several possible places..

“If the location you mentioned is correct, when you open your eyes again, you will wake up in your room at the Northern Blood Gate..”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Three earth winds flew at the same time and suppressed their blood vessels. they fell asleep like that.

Of course, I have no intention of just releasing it just because the location is right. I had to deal with Binggung and get what I could from there..

That's not the end. Punishment remains for what the Northern Blood Gate has planned..

Ian said with a sigh..

“Why didn't I think of this from the beginning??”

“Even if I did it back then, it wouldn’t have worked..”

“yes? What do you mean by that??”

“Because I would never have revealed it. I would have held it until the end. But you're not the type to torture people..”

“ah! He confessed after finding out that his father abandoned him.!”

“yes.”

“I didn't even think of this part! Why is the answer avoiding me?!”

Ian looked at the sword dance with renewed admiration..

Geommugeuk did not forget to show off..

“I always feel good when I see your eyes full of respect.”

After joking around like that, the three went outside..

Outside, it was snowing heavily, which had stopped for a while..

“You really don't want to look at the snow..”

Ian looked up at the sky with a bright face. I was able to feel that Ian goes well with winter when it comes to sword dance..

Ian ran out into the snowy yard..

Geommugeuk said to Chwima while watching Ian running around like an excited puppy..

“You take care of rescuing those people. I will meet Sogungju.”

Chu Ma nodded silently and walked into the snow without saying a word..

Ian, who was running around, stood for a moment and watched the horse. Is it because I've never really seen his back? Or is it because of the falling snow? Ian thought that the sight of Chuma walking alone in the snow looked somewhat lonely..

“Is this a problem that can be solved with just one word, ‘take care of it’??”

“Why is Mazon called Mazon??”

“Thanks to you, I am now free.!”

Ian was lying down in the snow..

Geommugeuk looked up at the snowy sky and said.

“Sorry, but this is just the beginning..”

* * *

Han Seol arrived at the meeting place with Chan in response to the message from Geommugeuk to meet..

Two people were waiting there.

The moment Hanseol saw the figure of the woman standing with the sword dance, he was able to have a premonition. That woman wearing bamboo ribs and cotton thread is the servant who kidnapped the son of the Northern Blood Moon Lord this time..

‘The subordinate was a woman..’

The two were talking comfortably. Even from a distance, I could feel that their relationship was comfortable. We were like friends and like brother and sister..

‘I also have no authority.’

It's the same with the hobby, and it's the same in this situation right now..

Then, naturally, I wondered if the rumors and achievements about So Jyoju were exaggerated. If it's a demonic religion, it can be manipulated as much as it wants..

As Han Seol approached them, Ian greeted them with a polite wave..

“Meet the Lord Sogung.”

Hanseol only slightly moved his head to receive a greeting. With an expression that says the subordinate is just a subordinate.

In her attitude, Geommugeuk did not feel blunt or authoritative. What I felt now was emptiness.

“Why did you ask to meet me??”

In response to Han Seol’s question, Sword Dance Geuk also explained the main point straight away..

“I will return the North Blood Munju’s self-control..”

Hanseol calmly asked, hopeful that things might work out unexpectedly..

“Of course, there are conditions.?”

“of course.”

“Please speak.”

“First of all, I must not hold my subordinate responsible for kidnapping them..”

Hanseol's gaze glanced towards Ian and then back to Geommugeuk..

“I don't know if the Northern Blood Gate will accept it..”

That's what he said, but he has no choice but to accept the Northern Blood Gate. You can blame the typhoon and curse at it, but you can't jump into it head on just because you're angry..

“great. I accept it. Where is Confucius Yang??”

“There is one more condition..”

“What is it?”

“Please let us stay in the ice palace. I would like to stay for a while and investigate the death of Baekju Seolwon Wonju..”

Han Seol flatly refused..

“The main palace does not allow foreigners to stay..”

“Those are my only two conditions..”

“It's not up to me to decide. I will discuss it with the palace lord and tell you..”

Just when Hanseol was about to turn around, Geommugeuk spoke..

“I think you can decide things like this yourself. How about you make a decision and convince the palace lord? Since you are the Sogung lord, you probably don’t have this much authority.?”

A provocation is a provocation, but Han Seol did not show his pride..

“I don't have that authority..”

“Take this opportunity.”

Han Seol’s eyes became cold..

“Isn’t this a very revealing intention??”

“I think this is an opportunity for the oxbow lord..”

“What an opportunity.?”

“An opportunity to formally negotiate with the leader of the Demonic Cult. The palace lord will also pay attention to the process and results. On the contrary, you may be looking forward to it. I see you taking the lead in handling this matter..”

Suddenly, Hanseol remembered himself making that report..

This time I decided on my own. Please believe in me and support me, my lord..

If I say this, what will my mother say??

This is the problem. The point is that it is not predictable at all. She still doesn't know what kind of person her mother is..

“I'll get back to you.”

That was when she was about to turn around..

“Can I tell you something??”

Ian, who had been quiet until now, came forward. She slowly took off her bamboo ribs and cotton thread..

Han Seol couldn't take his eyes off Ian's face for a moment. It wasn't about admiring beauty..

Han Seol had one thought in mind..

You are a different person from me..

When did you ever think like this? Did you tell your mother a long time ago??

Doubts arise at the same time. Why do you think like this when you look at one of the followers of the Demonic Cult's small sect? Why does it resonate so deeply? Even if I thought about it myself, I couldn't understand it..

“What do you want to say??”

It was the moment when the eyes of two conflicting women, cold and warm, met for the first time..
