< Episode 88: Sacheondang Street (1) >
Daejeon is full of darkness.
Inside, three people wearing cotton robes with an unusual atmosphere entered.
The three people who entered like that naturally moved forward and bowed down on one knee toward the podium, where not even their shadows were visible.
As they knelt, a voice came from the podium.
“Isn’t it just the Emperor and the Demon Sword that didn’t come?”
In response to that question, the slim figure on the far right opened his mouth.
“I understand that Paje is in charge of an important mission given by Mokgan. The ghost sword’s whereabouts have been unknown since he gave that order. “Perhaps the Duke…”
-Sigh!
Before he could finish speaking, the person next to him held out his hand and stopped what he was saying.
At this, the slim figure of Myeonsain could not hide his curiosity.
Then the one in the middle spoke.
“Spring and Autumn (春秋). “You should take your mind off the ghost sword’s business.”
To his words, which were almost like commands, the slim figure of Myeonjin responded as if he felt uncomfortable.
“······The ghost sword has been missing for over half a year. “I was just trying to ask the Duke because the same kind has disappeared, but are you really that dissatisfied with that, Kang-Yeom?”
“Have you forgotten that Mokgan told you not to get involved with the ghost sword and him?”
“But the situation is different this time. The ghost sword has been gone for over half a year. The last place he was seen was Sacheondang…”
“stop.”
At that time, a dignified voice rang out from the podium.
The two people who had been growling and looking at each other hastily lowered their heads.
As soon as they fell silent, a voice came from the podium.
“Say it in a harsh way. Lee Gwang died.”
“yes?”
“What about Lee Kwang?”
At those words, all three people could not help but raise their heads in surprise.
Among them, a man named Kang Yeom spoke in puzzlement.
“Didn’t Mokgan give Lee Gwang an object made from the scales of the Demon King? Even quite advanced experts would have used it…”
“I felt him the moment Lee Gwang died.”
‘!!!!!’
At those words, all three people raised their heads at the same time.
Among them, the person on the far left who had been silent opened his mouth.
“······That can’t be possible.”
“What makes that impossible?”
“It was clear that he had completely lost his strength. Even if he survived by luck, he would only be able to maintain his form, so how could he…”
“Does that mean I felt wrong?”
“······.”
Myeonsain immediately closed his mouth.
To deny it, it was as if I had taken root all the time, barely moving here, focusing only on feeling its energy.
When everyone was sure of its complete extinction, only Mokgan denied it.
If this kind of wood felt, it is certain.
‘Is this why everyone was summoned?’
If he was truly resurrected, the time had come for all of the organization’s forces to mobilize.
* * *
Two people came out first out of Daejeon, which was filled with darkness.
-Park!
Among them, someone with a slim figure took off his teeth as if he felt uncomfortable.
Then the face was revealed, a beautiful woman with a mysterious aura mixed with white and black hair.
The woman with her face exposed said with an irritated expression, glaring at the man in the cotton cloth who was much larger than her.
“There is definitely something in Sacheondangga. But why are they telling me not to touch that place? Could it be that they are just afraid of poisonous people or something?”
Myeonsain, or rather Gangyeom, muttered as if he was tired of this woman’s question.
“It’s quite remarkable.”
“It’s not that big of a deal. The ghost sword’s whereabouts were unknown for the last time there, and Mokgan knows that the old man of Seonghwaryeongju clearly has some connection to the Sacheondang family, so even the reason why he is told not to touch that place…”
“hey. spring and autumn.”
“what?”
“I’ve been locked up for so long that you might not know it, but there’s a reason why you’re not allowed to touch it.”
“So what is the reason?”
The cotton man shook his head at her annoyed attitude and then spoke in a whisper.
“There is a hidden power that protects the party family.”
“Hidden power? “What is that?”
“I don’t know exactly either. “I just know that that power has been around for quite some time and is very dangerous.”
“under? “Well, you’re just a human…”
“Do it in moderation. Even the demon king who regained his strength was beaten by a mere human. “No, to say that he is nothing more than a mere monster is like a monster that even the six demons cannot easily attack.”
Chunchu frowned at his words.
Speaking of the Six Demons, aren’t they the kings of spirit beasts who are infinitely close to divine beasts?
They are transcendent beings that even they cannot control.
If you are a human being that such beings could not touch…
“…Are you really talking about the guy who crossed the border wall?”
“okay. “If he had been there, Mokgan wouldn’t have been able to draw the picture he wanted on the day of the catastrophe.”

“Do you think there could be another such exceptional case?”
“I don’t know. That’s why Mokgan wants to make sure of this. If you want to fulfill His will, don’t talk nonsense and follow his orders.”
“······.joy.”
Chunchu snorted slightly.
Then, without hiding his dissatisfaction, he disappeared.
Kang Yeom, who sensed her remaining thoughts, showed his eyes full of concern.
Even though she wasn’t as good as the Ghost Sword, she was particularly emotional and uncontrollable among the executives in my field.
So I was worried that she would ignore his warning and move.
“Whoa.”
He let out a long sigh and then took a step forward.
In order to carry out the new command of the wooden tablet.
* * *
Cheonjihoe Naeseong main building, Gugung closed room.
-Kkeeeeeek!
The door to the closed room slowly opened, revealing someone.
Although his clothes were in tatters, he was a handsome man with thick lines and strong muscles all over his body.
What was unusual was that he was wearing a leather eyepatch over his right eye, and as soon as he opened the door and came out, someone shouted in a bright voice as if they had been waiting for him.
“The Archduke!”
The person who called him was a man of short stature who appeared to be in his early thirties.
As soon as he saw the man with a voice that seemed to have gone through a period of transformation, the handsome man opened his mouth.
“Moyak.”
The identity of the handsome man was none other than Na Yu-ryang, the great disciple of the head of Cheonjihoe.
Mo Yak, who remembered what it was like before entering the closed building with serious injuries, spoke as if he was deeply moved.
“You are truly amazing. “It’s not better…”
I feel like I have more energy than before.
I haven’t been closed for that long, but have I achieved a high level of enlightenment?
I’m curious about this and would like to ask,
-Sigh!
Na Yu-ryang looked next to him and spoke first.
“Who is he?”
Because his face was covered with a cotton thread, his identity could not be identified.
But what’s more annoying is,
“you. “He’s not an ordinary guy.”
-Sureuk!
Na Yulyang’s divine form disappeared as if scattered, and then appeared behind an unknown person whose face was covered with a cotton thread.
Nayuliang stretched out his hand toward the right side of his head.
At that moment, the being of cotton moved its head to the side and easily avoided it,
-widely!
He grabbed Na Yulyang’s wrist.
At this, Na Yulyang’s right eyebrow rose.
Although it is said that it was not an all-out effort, it was thought that it would be difficult to detect its presence due to the high-speed movement using Myeonghyeonsuwolbo (明顯水越步), which is a German method of enlightenment.
However, not only did he know his exact location, he also caught this trick.
‘Look at this guy?’
-Purrrrr!
The hand holding Na Yulyang’s wrist was trembling.
With that, a crack appeared on the floor where the two people were standing.
– Quad deuk!
Mo Yak, who realized that a battle of attack power had begun, hurriedly shouted.
“Grand Duke. Stop! He is the one who came to help the Grand Duke.”
“what?”
At his words, Na Yulyang immediately lowered the power he had been raising.
The existence of myeonsa also benefited from this.
As each party gathered their efforts, the presence of the Myeonsa bowed to Na Yulyang with a full bow.
“It’s amazing. “I have heard of the great reputation of the Great Duke, but I don’t think the merits of the person who completed the closing ceremony are inferior to those of the Palseong (八星) people who can now be considered the best of the martial arts world.”
Nayuliang spoke with an expressionless face in response to his polite attitude.
“Who are you?”
“This is a messenger sent from the Presbyterian Hall to which I belong.”
“Presbyterian War?”
Na Yulyang could not hide his surprise at those words.
Presbyterian Hall could be said to be a hidden power because retired executives of the Cheonjihoe reside there.
However, he never expected that among the old men there would be a super expert with this level of ability.
Na Yu-ryang, who was staring at the man from the village who said he was from the Presbyterian Temple, opened his mouth.
“If you do, take off your cotton thread.”
At his command, the man in the cotton cloth bowed his head and said.
“I’m sorry, but Sokha’s face is so ugly from the burns that I’m embarrassed to show her.”
“Does not matter. “Show me.”
“If that’s the case, I can’t help it.”
In response, the cotton thread man carefully raised the cotton thread he was using.
Then, a miserable face full of burn marks appeared.
Na Yulyang’s only eye narrowed when she saw this.
I didn’t particularly notice that the burn scars were ugly, but I don’t know if it was because of the burns, but both eyes were missing.
‘I don’t have eyes, but you captured my days with just my presence?’
A strange look appeared in Na Yulyang’s eyes.
He was confident that no one could be his opponent except those who had achieved great enlightenment at the closed temple and had now reached the state of a great master called the Master of the Heaven and Earth Association, or the Six Heavens.
However, as I was caught up in the strange feeling that I would not be able to easily defeat this person, a strong desire to compete against him arose again.
“you······.”
-Sigh!
At that time, before Na Yulyang could say anything, the burned man stretched out his hand.
Then, from a little distance away, something that looked like a wooden box floated up in the air and came into his hands.
Looking at this, Nayuliang looked puzzled and asked.
“what?”
The size of the wooden box was quite small.
However, red text was written all over the outside of the wooden box.
It looked like a magic or witchcraft spell.
In response, a man with a face covered in burns showed his yellow teeth and spoke.
“I heard you hurt your eye.”
As soon as those words were finished, Na Yulyang’s left eye became harsh.
There were at most three people who knew that he had injured his eye, and none of them would reveal it.
No, the only person worth talking about was beheaded.
But how did the man in the Presbyterian Church know that there was something wrong with his eyes?
That said,
“Grand Duke, stop being cautious. Now, if you want to unite the association in earnest, you will have a lot of work to do, so do you really need to waste your energy on something like this?”
“It’s not up to you to decide whether to relax or not. “I can’t wait for someone to try to get over my head just because it’s a presbyterian exhibition.”
– Sweet!
Hearing his words, the burnt man silently opened the lid of the wooden box.
-Shhhh!
-Startle!
At that moment, Moyak, who was snooping around to see what was inside, was unknowingly forced to retreat due to something creepy.
As Moyak opened his mouth, cold breath flowed out.
Before I knew it, the surroundings were filled with frost.
‘What is this?’
While I was puzzled, Na Yulyang approached the wooden box that the man in the picture was opening.
As soon as I opened the wooden box, a strange and creepy energy was revealed inside along with a cold chill.
The identity of that strange energy is none other than,
‘eye?’
It was an eyeball.
The moment I saw these eyes, which were yellow, closer to gold, and whose pupils were as small as dots, I felt the ferocity of a ferocious beast.
Anyone could tell that these were not human eyes.
The burnt man raised the corners of his mouth and said to Grand Duke Na Yu-ryang, who could not take his eyes off the only one here.
“This will be the Archduke’s new eyes.”
* * *
Near a steep cliff not far from Chaoyang in the north of Hubei Province.
There, numerous swordsmen were lying bleeding and the flag of a renowned martial arts group was broken and planted.
[南宮]
Namgung.
It was the flag of the Namgung family.
A middle-aged man standing between them, holding a cracked sword like a cane, looked at someone with disbelief.
‘What on earth is that monster?’
At the highest level, he destroyed the royal sword-type temples with only a simple schematic.
No, it wasn’t just a simple schematic.
This was because the diagram was unfolded in a way that could not have been unfolded with ordinary muscles and joints.
‘How is that possible?’
I couldn’t understand it at all.
He was so shocked that he couldn’t stand it anymore and vomited blood.
“Kwaek.”
-thud!
A middle-aged man, who had coughed up a handful of blood, knelt on one knee on the floor.
In front of him, someone in the shadows stepped behind him and approached him with an arrogant look on his face.
The middle-aged man felt humiliated by that sight and gritted his teeth.
How could he, a member of the Eight Stars, who prided himself on being the strongest in the world except for the Six Heavens, be defeated by such an unknown young man?
His identity was none other than Nam Gung-jin, a Changcheon martial arts expert with the title of Eight Saints.
“Cluck cluck….”
The man behind him, who was vomiting blood, approached him and opened his mouth.
“The title ‘Emperor’ is not something that is given carelessly to something like a sword.”
“haha······.”
“Only the sword can be called a king, or rather a god.”
“Oh… it’s beyond ten thousand… it’s incredible.”
“Whether it is Gwang-oh or arrogance, everything comes from skill alone. “The swordsman of the Namgung family.”
“Cluck cluck.”
I was angry, but I had nothing to say because I was defeated.
The man behind him asked the humiliated man.
“Have you really never heard of it?”
To this question, Namgoong Jin raised his head with difficulty and answered.
“haha······. “I’ve never even heard of a nickname like that, or even a name like that.”
“Are you sure?”
“Didn’t you say there wasn’t one? Cluck cluck… “I have been wandering around the martial arts world for fifty years, but I am a heavenly horse…”
-Wow!
That was before the words were even finished.
Blood spurted out from his neck, Namgoongjin’s neck cracked, and his head fell forward and rolled around.
-widely!
The man lightly stepped on his head and muttered.
“Is it not yet?”
-Kwasik!
