Episode 85
The lord has already
“Where have you been wandering around all night?”
Gu Min-chae turned her head when she heard a voice scolding her as she was entering the guest room.
Na Jin-bae, the commander of the Geumgeommun, was glaring at him with a displeased expression.
“This is the Kowloon branch. If you move around without any notice and make even the slightest mistake, all of our efforts could go down the drain, so be especially careful!”
“… … .”
“Who is your superior? I guess I’ll have to start by striking hard on the people above me!”
After staying at the guest house for the past few days, Na Jin-bae became convinced.
‘The future of Sacheon’s martial arts world depends on the Tang clan… and especially on the Guryong branch.’
The Dark Lord’s Sacheon tour was originally planned long ago.
But why do so many guests gather only at the Kowloon Branch?
It was precisely because of the symbolism of the Kowloon branch.
The attention of the martial arts world is focused on Tang Ho-san, the fierce and powerful swordsman who once wrote the legend of Sacheon’s martial arts world, as he tries to rise again and Dark Lord tries to meet him in person.
In addition, the talent pool was wide, including the fame of Dang Yun-hui, who has recently been on the rise, and Dang Gyu-jin, who was originally one of the top scorers.
‘And that’s not all? What about the discipline of the warriors who fill the branch? It was so well-trained that there would be no problem at all in considering it a well-trained army.’
Given this situation, Na Jin-bae quickly realized that the reputation of the Guryong branch was less known to the outside world.
The insight into the future of the couple Song Man-seon and Hyuksinwol was outstanding.
‘Having a sect like this right next door can be both a poison and a medicine. So you absolutely cannot make a mistake during the event.’
This was the reason why Na Jin-bae repeatedly urged his subordinates to be careful about their actions.
He instructed them not to wander around the guest house without permission, and if they had to go out, they had to do so in pairs.
However, it was discovered that one of the porters had been arrogantly disobeying the order all night.
I will somehow fix the mess by striking a blow with a single blow. That is what Na Jin-bae thought.
however.
Ouch!
‘…What kind of look in your eyes.’
Na Jin-bae swallowed dry saliva without realizing it as he was scolding Gu Min-chae.
As I looked into his deeply sunken eyes, my heart felt as if it was growing cold.
Those were Najinbae’s last thoughts before he died.
thud!
The corpse, stiff as a frozen corpse, fell limply.
“Huh, gasp! Me, me, the general!”
At that moment, Hyuk-woo-gi, who had come to greet Gu Min-chae, came running in frightened.
I quickly felt Najinbae’s pulse, but I couldn’t feel any life. There was a white frost on his skin.
Ice soul, deep-seeking eyes.
It was a method of rapidly lowering the opponent’s body temperature with just a glance, causing them to freeze to death.
Hyuk-woo-gi trembled at Gu Min-chae’s incredible magic, but on the other hand, he was at a loss as to how to clean up the mess.
In fact, the person in charge of the delegation ended up dying.
“Oh, by any chance did I, the General, make a mistake to you, my lord-”
“Can you organize it without any problems?”
“That, that!”
“I don’t ask twice.”
“… … .”
Hyukwoo swallowed his dry saliva.
It was easy to see that if I answered wrongly here, I would end up lying down next to the General.
“I’ll try….”
“Go ahead.”
Hyuk-woo-gi, wondering if there might be other eyes watching, carried Na-jin-bae on his back and ran to his room naked.
As Gu Min-chae watched his back with an indifferent expression, a shadow suddenly fell to the side.
“Kekekekeke. What are you going to do if you do things so recklessly? How many eyes are there watching here?”
Jeokgolsa-gok said with the whites of his eyes shining.
He was smiling, but it was a reprimand.
“You were going to change everything anyway, right? Just think of it as something you’ve already done.”
“Thanks to you, I guess I’ll have to take all the trouble.”
At that moment, the face of the Jeokgol Sagok changed into that of Najinbae, making a strange sound.
The face, the voice, the atmosphere, everything was exactly like Na Jin-bae.
In fact, this kind of ‘swapping’ has been happening continuously.
All of them, including the ghosts who had previously infiltrated the Guryong branch as family members or servants, as well as the ghosts who had disguised themselves as warriors of the diplomatic delegation.
They are planting a bomb right in the middle of Kowloon.
“What happened to the thing you said you would check and come back for?”
“As expected, it was very dense. There was no water leak.”
The reason why Gu Min-chae searched the Guryong branch all night.
It was to check the shortest distance from the guest house to the Baeksangjeon.
I was trying to see how tight the surveillance net was, but I couldn’t find any gaps.
In particular, whether it was a coincidence or not, the surveillance of the guest house where they were was the tightest.
Considering the surveillance network that has yet to be discovered, I couldn’t even guess how many layers it would have.
“Where did the information leak out from?”
“I don’t know. But didn’t you already have in mind that they might know something?”

“Well, that’s what Namgung guys do.”
If Namgung Sanyoung and Baekgol Mangsa hadn’t handled things so stupidly, the infiltration would have been much easier.
But I never had any trust in them from the beginning.
Where can there be any trust between Bukhaejong and Namgung?
Once the common enemy called the Tang clan was destroyed, they immediately started thinking about eating each other.
“What do you want to do beyond this?”
“The plan remains the same.”
“Click, click, click. This could be dangerous, right?”
“Do you think I came here without even considering that?”
Gu Min-chae’s eyes sparkled with madness.
Jeokgolsaegok quickly took a couple of steps back.
“I think I was rude. I apologize.”
“I won’t let you get away with being cocky twice.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
Even with the apple from Jeokgolsa Valley, Gu Min-chae’s slightly furrowed brow did not show any sign of relaxing.
‘I don’t like it.’
Jeokgolsa Valley has always been like this.
I took it with me because I needed it right now, but if the opportunity arose, I was ready to nitpick and turn the ball around.
‘What I don’t like the most is the current situation. How on earth do we open the way to the White War?’
Gu Min-chae was convinced after witnessing Un-hui moving the Jeongpunggak in perfect order several times.
It is much more evident to the outside world that Yunhui is at the center of the Kowloon branch.
In the end, the most urgent task in order to destroy the surveillance network of the Kowloon branch was to eliminate Yun Hui first.
‘A duel with the Lion King… Should I wait for that moment?’
But at that time, there was so much attention from the surroundings that it was difficult to handle things quietly.
It was absolutely forbidden to move troops without permission from the Northern Sea Lord.
‘There must be a way… Wait, why do we have to attack the White War directly? Can’t we just go around to the side?’
Gu Min-chae’s eyes twitched.
‘If only I could make him experience the same pain as I did-‘
The moment that thought crossed Gu Min-chae’s mind, she felt her mind light up.
“More than that, what about the connection with the lord?”
“I have already heard that His Majesty has entered Guryong County. He said that he will give me a message ‘in person’ soon.”
“The lord himself?”
Although Sasaroi was his father, even if he had thrown away those conditions, the Northern Sea Lord was a master known in Tian Shan.
He was also a new candidate for apostle, representing the will of the Society and the Tower.
My heart felt like it was beating fast when I heard that he was right nearby.
And that means only one thing.
“… It looks like the Dark Lord has arrived nearby.”
“I don’t know about the dark zone, but the green zone has been discovered in this area. It looks like it will reach the branch house soon.”
“I’m already looking forward to it.”
Jeokgol Sagok realized that Guminchae’s monologue was a lie.
Because I knew very well how much Gu Min-chae was wary and afraid of the Bukhae Empire.
‘Aren’t you a bastard who feels inferior to someone who’s been dead for six years and has a useless obsession with Dang Yun-hwi who only has the same name? I’ll just pretend to follow him and watch. Hehe.’
Dreaming different dreams in the same bed.
The relationship between the two people was already nothing more than one where they only intended to use each other appropriately and then discard each other.
It was at that very moment.
“!”
“!”
Guminchae and Jeokgolsa-gok’s gazes simultaneously turned towards the sky.
As something fell from the ceiling, hanging down, the two quickly got down on one knee and bowed their heads.
At first glance, she looked like a woman you might see on the street, with her eyes tightly shut.
A good funeral for a young person.
Like Jeokgol Sagok, he belongs to the Twelve Black Demons.
Sejak was a thief who had been infiltrating the Guryong branch as a guest long before Guminchae came in.
Of course, Guminchae and Jeokgolsagok were not the ones to show her such politeness.
The being that exists beyond.
This was an example of their lord, who descended directly into this flesh.
“I meet the lord.”
“I meet the lord.”
Phaaaah!
Cheonggolhosang opened his closed eyes.
A peculiar coldness lingered beyond the transparent pupils that seemed to have been carved from blue crystal.
“To those who follow the strict teachings of the North Sea.”
Every time the Bukhae Jongju spoke in a straightforward manner, Gu Min-chae had to endure a shock that shook her soul.
“How much preparation have you done?”
“I, the disciple Gu Min-chae, who devoted my soul to the sermons of the North Sea, report to the great sect leader.”
“Speak.”
“The assembly of the Sosu Eun-dae and Sosu Cham-dae has already been completed. If you give us the order, we are ready to fight a holy war and accept martyrdom with a smile at any time.”
“Good. Then I will give you the sacred task of opening the first chapter of the temple.”
“Please give your order.”
“Please give your order.”
『Three days later, the Dark Lord will arrive at Kowloonbunjia.』
At that moment, the eyes of Guminchae and Jeokgolsagok, who were looking down, flashed coldly.
『As a practitioner of the Dharma and the leader of the sect, I would like to send a gift in advance to an old friend whom I will not see for several decades.』
“What is it?”
『Wreak havoc in the Nine Dragons. Then, cut off the head of the Gwangpung Nanhyeop or his son and hang it on a pole at the main gate. Let his eyes shed tears of blood when he sees the old evil friends visiting the branch house.』
Gu Min-chae clenched her fist without realizing it.
Even without that, Yun-Hwi had been planning to ask for permission to hunt, but permission was granted before he could do so.
“How many martyrs can a demon be? Can you do it?”
The last remaining restraints were lifted.
Guminchae’s head sank further down.
“How can I say that it is not safe?”
“Okay. Then I’ll be looking forward to it.”
Tsk tsk tsk-
The coldness disappeared from the clear glass eyes of the Cheonggolho statue.
She said again with her eyes closed.
“Follow the orders of the lord immediately. The lord may be far away physically, but his two eyes and ears are always here.”
Whirl!
The blue bone statue quietly disappeared.
The order was given to gather the remaining three groups without worrying about their presence.
Gu Min-chae also stood up from her seat and spoke to Jeokgol Sagok.
“Gather all the demons. We will move tonight.”
As it happens, I have a good plan.
Gu Min-chae smiled as cunningly as a snake and moistened her lips with her red tongue.
