A dark space full of only shadows.
There, a man with a hideously burned face was sitting cross-legged.
He was a messenger from the Presbyterian Church who called himself Yulmyeong to the Grand Duke Na Yu-ryang.
That kind of person opened his mouth.
“It was beyond my expectations. At best, our efforts to find a secret passage were in vain. “I didn’t expect you to come in from the front.”
At his words, an old man’s gruff voice was heard in the darkness.
“What a clever guy. “Did you notice this in advance?”
“I don’t think so. “Maybe it’s just because I’m worried about Tosagufeng.”
“Tosagupin?”
“Yes, since he was a hostage, he would be a good person to throw away. However, he is as careful as he is clever. Thanks to that, the old woman finally made it to the meeting.”
“So you headed to Hoeju?”
“That’s not it.”
“No?”
“Yes, contrary to expectations, the carriage was dragged with carcinoma.”
“carcinoma? Did he go to his damn teacher?”
“yes.”
“So that means it’s not a piece of chess that only moves according to the owner’s wishes.”
“If you look at it so far, yes.”
“That means…”
“It may have something to do with a third force. “For example, a group of radiants whose magic skills are so good that they can use vengeful spirits as food spirits.”
“Are you talking about the people who treated Wonsalgakju as living corpses?”
“yes.”
“Did you say he was on par with you?”
“There are not many radiations that can repel my main force.”
“Hmm.”
“What should I do? First of all, I left it alone because there was a situation like Huaiju and I couldn’t tell how far the third force had penetrated. Now that the old woman is here, I can no longer do that.”
The being in the dark seemed to agree with Yulmyeong’s concerns and let out a faint groan.
Then he said quickly.
“First of all, the most urgent matter is that old woman. If you do this, you will immediately get cancer…”
“Please put the carcinoma on hold for a while.”
“Hold?”
“Although the probability is low, it may be Hoeju’s intended trap.”
“Hoeju? Now he is…”
“Don’t the elders know this too? “If this is a trap aimed at us stepping forward, it could backfire.”
“What do you want to do if you do that?”
“How about letting them put it out themselves?”
“self?”
“Even so, in the hands of King Myeongdo, there is a younger brother who was held hostage at the Yeonmok Sword Ground like you.”
“Hoo.”
Yulmyeong said in a meaningful voice.
“Whether it’s a chess horse or not, it’s hard to overcome the weight of flesh and blood.”
* * *
“The one in front of you is the true owner of the Holy Fire.”
‘!!!!!’
Hwan Ya-seon, the head of the Amjong clan, was beyond surprised by Seong Hwa-ryeongju’s words and could not take his eyes off Mo Gyeong-un’s face.
What on earth does this mean?
Mok Gyeong-un, who was believed to have betrayed the religion, is the owner of the torch?
The owner of the Holy Fire.
Isn’t that being the incarnation of fire that they have been waiting for for a long time?
“What about now…”
“Uh-huh!”
Just a moment ago, Hwan Ya-sun thought that he had to be careful because there might be external surveillance, but he must have been so shocked that he called her out.
“Seonghwa Commando… “Are you sure that’s true?”
“Be polite.”
At the stern voice of Seonghwaryeongju, Hwanyaseon’s eyes shook.
There was no way that she, who received Seonghwa’s revelation, would say nonsense.
Suddenly, many things flashed through his mind.
‘Ahhh······.’
Does this mean that the speed of development with such incredible inaction that one might think of him as a monster was something he was born with because he was the embodiment of all this intelligence?
Hwan Ya-seon, who had been staring intently for a while, soon knelt down.
Then, he crossed his arms over his chest, put his hands on his shoulders, and made the bowing bow.
-thud!
Because he always hid his identity and worked with secretaries and information, he was more suspicious than anyone else, but paradoxically, he was more loyal and religious to the church than anyone else.
Therefore, his eyes were filled with complex feelings as he knelt down.
Even my eyes became red.
‘Issuance of a field trip…’
Looking at him like this, Seonghwaryeongju’s eyes became confused.

She thought back to just fifteen days ago.
* * *
Everyone was gathered in the guest hall of Yeonggeom Mountain Lodge.
[How on earth is this?]
The Holy Spirit of Seonghwa and her granddaughter, Yesongah, could not hide their embarrassment as they looked at the broken pieces of the orb, which could be said to be the Spirit of Holy Fire itself that gave revelation.
Even so, they were puzzled because there was no mention of the orb.
But who would have known that the orb could turn out like this?
‘What should I do with this?’
Seonghwa Commando’s mind became complicated.
The ability to read revelations brought threats from numerous enemies, but at the same time served as protection against them.
However, if the orb was broken, their role would now be nullified.
Even though she lost her powers, her granddaughter Yesongah inherited those powers, so this was the Holy Fire Spirit Spell that she hoped would protect her.
She wasn’t the only one who was embarrassed to see this.
Nie Chun looked at this and parted his lips as if he was concerned.
[Master… If the orb that gives the revelation of prophecy is broken, our mission is…]
[It wasn’t a failure in particular.]
[yes? What do you mean by that?]
[What was our mission?]
[Our mission? that······.]
The confidential mission they received was to escape the Seonghwa Commando from the golden prison under the imperial palace.
If you accept the mission as is, it certainly wasn’t a failure.
However, the purpose of seizing the Holy Spirit Pillar must have originated from her mysterious ability to predict the future.
Will the owner of the company really understand this?
The fact that he went to such lengths to break out the Seonghwa Spiritual Pillar clearly seemed to have something to do with his details.
Nie Chun spoke cautiously.
[Even if it does not lead to failure, the promise may not be kept because the mission has not been fully accomplished. If that happens, the position of the fourth disciple will be in vain…]
Before he could finish speaking, Meng Wuyak spoke.
[Is there a need to be concerned about one’s position?]
[what?]
[My lord has already reached a state where he can compete with the Six Heavens, which are said to be the pinnacle of martial arts at the time.]
[Wait a minute, what do you mean by medicine?]
[Cheonjihoe originally followed the law of strong self-respect. However, at some point, the Cheonmaek (天脈) reigns over the society like an emperor. However, a being that surpasses the heavenly vein has been born. Is there a reason for that?]
Because he was in charge of the Intelligence Department, he always made rational decisions.
However, Seopchun clicked his tongue at his changed attitude.
That’s probably why I was so fascinated by the existence of Mok Gyeong-un and his strength.
however,
[There is some truth to what you say. However, even if the group’s goal was self-reliance, that would be too hasty a judgment. At least······.]
[Don’t you want to say that you need a justification?]
[······okay. Even though you know that?]
No matter how powerful Mok Gyeong-un became, he needed a cause to follow in order to become the person who could lead this huge organization called Cheonjihoe.
Even though he became a disciple of Amjongju, his roots were in a political faction and he was held hostage.
Moreover, if he, who has decided to pledge loyalty to the association, tries to solve everything simply through force, who will follow him?
Rather, internal enemies will only increase.
however,
-Park!
Meng Wuyue knelt down on one knee and put his hands together to bow.
Everyone’s attention was focused on his sudden attitude.
Meanwhile, Meng Wuyak spoke to Mu Qingyun in a pious voice.
[Not only heavenly veins and ley veins are qualified to be the hosts of the meeting.]
[What are you doing now…]
[It is absolutely no coincidence that Huin, who succeeded Wolmaek, returned to the circuit. If my lord wants to rule over the society, I will follow him by sacrificing my life with this dream.]
[Wolmaek?]
At those words, Nie Chun’s eyes widened.
Did you just say it was Wolmaek?
Speaking of Wolmaek, isn’t it one of the foundations of the Cheonjiwolhoe, which can be said to be the predecessor of the Cheonjiwolhoe?
I knew that due to some kind of incident, even the secret disappeared and the latter was completely cut off.
But what does this mean?
I was puzzled and Mong Wuyak said.
[You, I don’t know about most of you, but my lord is the descendant of Wolmaek who has appeared for the first time in over a hundred years. That is why King Myeongdo brought him.]
It was Mong Mu-yak, who was the deputy governor of the governor of Hoeju.
He knew well from his father, Buhoeju Mong Seocheon, how the two hostages of the political faction were captured.
However, due to the orders of Huaiju, the fact that Mok Gyeong-un was the successor of Wolmaek was kept secret.
Even if Wolmaek’s successor had appeared in the first place, there was nothing they could do about it now.
But now things have changed.
The wonderful inaction of Mokgyeongun can once again establish the law of Sammaek.
It was then.
-Park!
[No, it won’t happen.]
‘!?’
Meng Wuyue frowned and looked at the person who intervened.
She was none other than the Seonghwa Spiritual Lord.
Not only did he suddenly intervene, but what are you doing lying down on the floor?
I was puzzled, she said.
[Now that the orb that gives revelation has been destroyed, the symbolism of the Holy Fire Lord has virtually disappeared. In a situation where the religious leader has died and even our existence has become meaningless, the only person who can lead the remaining church members is Confucius, who can be called an incarnation. please······.]
[Please close your mouth. How dare you discuss telling your lord not to lead a cult?]
Meng Wuyue interrupted her and raised his voice.
Although he had her escape from prison due to a mission, he did not have a very positive attitude towards Bae Hwa-gyo like other Jungwon people.
Despite his urgings, the Holy Spirit of Seonghwa did not back down.
[Confucius is the true master and embodiment of sacred painting. You can change the fate that has already been decided at will…]
[I am neither the Avatar nor the owner of the Seonghwa. And fate is not decided. Please don’t define things like that arbitrarily.]
At that time, Mok Gyeong-un, who had been listening quietly, opened his mouth.
At this, the Holy Spirit Lord looked at him with puzzled eyes.
Meng Wuyak, who thought she was just criticizing her absurd words, laughed and smiled in triumph.
however,
[Otherwise, I was going to tell you what my goal was, and it worked out well.]
[target? Lord… What do you mean by that?]
Mok Gyeong-un smiled and answered his puzzled question.
[I am deleting Cheonjihoe.]
‘!!!!!!’
Everyone looked surprised at those words.
This was especially true for Nie Chun and Meng Muyak, who were from Cheonjihoe.
They hoped that Mok Gyeong-un, whose martial arts had developed dramatically, would take over the government of Cheonjihoe and rule over it.
But a completely unexpected ambition came out of his mouth.
I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed by this.
[Master… What do you mean by deleting the Heaven and Earth Association? Even if you don’t rule over the raw fish, you fight with the raw fish itself…]
[Because I don’t like it that much.]
[yes?]
[The name Cheonjihoe. Well, don’t worry. This does not mean that I will erase those who want to follow me.]
‘······Unbelievable.’
I wondered if they had misunderstood.
However, he was really sincere when he said he would erase Cheonjihoe.
Although it is said that Wu Wei rose dramatically, Cheonjihoe was a huge force that divided the current martial arts world into three.
I was speechless because this was the truth.
‘Standing tall within the Cheonjihoe and the expression of erasing the Cheonjihoe itself have completely different meanings.’
Then the Seonghwa Spiritual Lord spoke in a trembling voice.
[Confucius. If that is indeed Confucius’ will, please take away the poor church members. If so, they will do so for Confucius…]
[If it comes with my own feet, I will accept it. However, if you come under my wing, it will not be Cheonjihoe, but it will not be Baehwagyo. All you have to do is follow me.]
Everyone’s whole body trembled at Mo Kyung-un’s words.
The meaning of these words now was clear.
It was tantamount to declaring that he would follow the path of defeat.
It is not Cheonjihoi or Baehwagyo, but has its own path.
‘Are we trying to open a new world?’
* * *
[There is only one thing for you to do. Make those church members into cards that I can use, not Baehwagyo.]
This was the task he gave himself.
[Let’s prove ourselves useful.]
That task came with a harsh warning.
For fifteen days, Seonghwaryeongju was immersed in numerous worries.
Although Mok Gyeong-un spoke casually, his decision was tantamount to ending the existence of Baehwa Bridge.
It was such a sad thing to end the existence of Baehwagyo, which had existed for so long, like this.
But suddenly this thought occurred to me.
Is the name Baehwagyo really that important?
What was important was the spirit and doctrine contained within it, and their mindset.
Giving up the name and following Mokgyeong-un did not mean abandoning it.
In the first place, the existence of Mokgyeongun was the embodiment of fire and the value of their existence.
‘Let’s not get hung up on the name. Confucius is the doctrine itself.’
What you will do for the rest of your life has been decided.
The existence of a religion that everyone had rejected was revived under the incarnation of Mok Gyeong-un.
The mission of Yaseon was the beginning.
‘Issuance of a field trip… Everything is for the sake of the church. Please understand.’
If you were to immediately tell them to follow Hwashin instead of Gyo, they might not understand or resist, so it was your job to gradually encourage them.
“Confucius. “Please accept me as a faithful church member.”
Seonghwaryeongju crossed his hands and made a polite request to Mok Kyung-un.
Then it happened.
-Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-tak!
I heard someone running in a hurry.
Soon, a female warrior came running in a huff through the pavilion of the back garden and stopped.
“What the hell is this?”
Although he was a warrior who had come to deliver something, he could not help but be embarrassed by the sight of cancerous warriors lying all over the grounds.
Then, Hwan Ya-seon, the head of Amjong, stood up hurriedly and said.
“What’s going on?”
“Run run… this······.”
“Don’t worry about this place, just tell me what’s going on first.”
“Ha, haona…”
“A guest has arrived.”
At that time, Mok Kyung-un looked in the direction of the pavilion and said.
“customer?”
-Rumble!
But then I saw a group of people approaching from beyond the pavilion.
Among them, the one standing at the forefront was particularly noticeable. He was a middle-aged man with a much larger body and more muscle than King Myeongdo, and he was carrying a huge ax on one shoulder.
Seeing this, Lord Hwan Ya-seon frowned and muttered.
“King Pabu?”
He was Ho Taekang, the King of Pabu, a member of the Five Kings, a high-ranking official of the Cheonjihoe, and the highest priest who received the title of Palseong.
