< Episode 53: Surrender (1) >
‘My lord…I apologize.’
Yiak Wi Maeng-cheon who was possessing the body of his henchman Jong-im apologized internally.
In my heart I wanted to stab him in the back for the sake of my master Jang Neung-ak but after becoming a food spirit I realized the principle of Yeon and couldn’t do that.
This was because the fate of the food spirit and its owner were the same.
However even if this was not the case the more I learned about tree farming the more I became afraid.
‘What on earth is that monster bird?’
In fact if it were my old body it would have been very difficult to deal with peak experts of that level alone.
However thanks to that huge bird that suddenly appeared they were able to subdue the warriors.
This made Wei Mengchen even more afraid of Mu Qingyun.
‘What on earth is it?’
He didn’t know that he could even control a monster that wasn’t human.
How was it that there was such a strange thing within the Heaven and Earth Association and no one knew about it?
Thanks to this I was starting to wonder what Mokgyeongun’s true identity was.
Then before he knew it Mok Gyeong-un disappeared in an instant with a tremendous brute force appeared behind Jang Nung-eok and grabbed him by the shoulder.
“You!”
“fizzle. Be quiet and relax your shoulders. “If you keep moving like that his hand will become so strong that he will want to break it.”
– Creepy!
For an instant Jang Neungak had goosebumps all over his body.
The bastard’s grumpy voice was full of only malice.
I’ve had this feeling somewhere before.
‘Metabolic type?’
okay.
It was quite similar to the metabolic rate.
There was a similar eerie feeling as if there was a significant lack of humanity.
Meanwhile Ho Jong-hyuk opened his mouth holding on to the handle of an ax with one of its blades broken.
“Thorough cultivation. “Stop.”
“What? “Did I do something?”
“I don’t know how you got the author involved but do you think you can handle all of this?”
“I guess that’s none of your business.”
“nerves? Even if you get what you want by threatening my master’s life right now do you think you can prevent my master and all the forces that support him from finding out about this?”
“….”
“Stop right now. “This is a reckless act no matter how strong your inaction has become.”
With these words Ho Jong-hyuk’s finger which was cleverly pointed backwards moved.
Jonghyuk Ho was sending hand signals with his fingers.
The person sending the hand signal was none other than his female escort behind him.
[Keep this with you.]
[What is this?]
[It is a relief bomb.]
[Relief bomb?]
[It was given to me by my teacher.]
[If you are Master are you King Pabu?]
[okay. He gave it to prepare for any emergency. There may be no need to use it but I think it would be better for you as the guard to keep this with you just in case.]
[Would it be okay for me to have something like this?…]
[It is more effective if you have it. In any case if an emergency situation arises I and other members of the Oakhoe will be subject to check.]
It was a truly unfortunate incident.
He had entrusted a rescue bomb in case of an emergency.
The relief bullets were given by Master in preparation for the Archduke’s side but it was thought that there would be no particular use for Hoeju while he was alive.
But I had no idea it would happen so quickly.
-Sigh! Sigh!
Ho Jong-hyuk made a hand signal with his finger so that only the female escort was visible.
It was a preset hand signal.
-Gulp!
Xiaek (四岳) Seo Hye-in who was at an angle to see this hand signal swallowed her dry saliva.
She had heard this from Ho Jong-hyuk so she had her female escort remain in this position just in case.
‘If only the relief bomb goes off….’
King Ho Taekang of Pabu will come here right away.
If that happens that guy Mok Gyeong-un will no longer be able to make hasty threats.
To do that you need to attract his attention even more.
Seo Hye-in intervened.
“Thorough farming! What Ho Datju said is right. “Intimidation has utility when you can maintain it in the first place so how are you going to maintain it?”
At her words Mok Gyeong-un’s gaze naturally shifted to her.
Seo Hye-in was excited in her mind but she did not show it.
I just hoped that Ho Jong-hyuk’s female escort would hurry up and fire relief bombs.
To this end she tried to continue her words to further capture Mok Kyung-un’s gaze.
however
-Quad!
At that time the sound of something breaking was heard.
Did you use relief bombs?
‘uh?’
Something was strange.
If rescue bombs were used flames would have to shoot upwards due to the ammunition.
But all I heard was a crashing sound.
Seo Hye-in who tried not to show her anger eventually couldn’t bear it and turned her head towards her female escort.
at that moment
‘Anit?’
Seo Hye-in couldn’t hide her embarrassment.
That’s because Ho Jong-hyuk’s female escort broke the stick of the relief bomb.
Is this woman crazy?
If you understood the hand signals of the great Ho Jong-hyuk you would do something like this…..
It was then.
“What is that?”
Mok Kyung-un asked the female escort.
Then
“This is a relief bomb that can be used to request help from King Pabu.”
‘No way!’
Seo Hye-in got angry at her answering so obediently and tried to scold her.
But before that Ho Jong-hyuk spoke first.
“…Chaerin. Were you one of those people too?”
At the point when she broke the relief bomb she couldn’t help but be suspicious.
At his question Gochan Escort who was possessed by Chae-rin’s body made her shudder and said
“Ugh. “It’s so bad I can’t eat it.”
“Chaerin?”
“stop! “I’m done catering to you.”
Ho Jong-hyuk’s expression hardened at Go Chan’s firm words.
He liked her because of her easy-going nature and her somewhat different reactions and appearance from other women.
So he kept her close and tried to make her his wife rather than her escort.
But when she faced this result she couldn’t help but feel dejected.
Ho Jong-hyuk spoke in a voice full of regret.
“Everything we’ve done together so far is a lie….”
“uh! okay. “It’s all a lie so please refrain from acting like an overly confident bitch to others.”
“….”
Ho Jong-hyuk was dumbfounded as if he had been shocked by Go Chan’s pressure pouring in like a torrent of pressure.
Seeing him like that Gochan snorted.
If it weren’t for the food spirit he would have escaped from this guy a long time ago.
-That guy must have accumulated a lot.
-I see.
Mok Gyeong-un chuckled at the sight of this kind of high praise.
I thought he might have gotten used to it and enjoyed being a woman but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
At that time Jang Neungak opened his mouth.
“…What the hell are you?”
“What is it?”
“When on earth did you come into contact with them?”
He was someone I could never understand.
Neither Jong-im who was Wi Meng-cheon’s henchman nor that woman had any way to contact Mok Gyeong-un.
But how on earth did he make these people his own?
No matter how much I thought about it it was difficult to find the connection but then Mok Kyung-un asked in my ear.
“Do you have any more hidden secrets?”
“….”
In response to Mok Gyeong-un’s question Jang Neung-ak bit his lip.
There was nothing more that could be done to turn the situation around right now.
In response Jang Neungak spoke in a voice full of evil.
“Even so there is nothing you can gain.”
“Nothing good will come of being stubborn.”
“Kill it.”
‘!?’
At his words Mok Gyeong-un’s eyes sparkled with interest.
I was curious about how he would react as he reached a dead end cliff with his trump cards broken.
Deep down I thought he would give in.
However it comes out surprisingly strong.
“I guess I became Hoeju’s disciple for no reason just because I’m a junchi even if I’m rotten.”
“Shut up. You can’t get anything anyway. Even if you threaten me with force it will only be temporary.”
“Hmm.”
“You should know because you’re not stupid either. “Your threats are completely meaningless if the principal does not give in.”
“Well that’s right.”
Jang Neung-ak frowned at Mok Gyeong-un’s words which he readily admitted.
This guy probably didn’t know that but I couldn’t figure out why he was doing this.
Anyway since there was nothing more to do there was no way to dissuade this guy other than to remind him of what would happen next.
however
“But Confucius will submit to me. “Like a dog wagging its tail.”
“How dare you!”
-Wood clack!
“Kwaaaak!”
At that moment Jang Neung-ak screamed in pain as his bones broke.
“iced coffee. “I’m sure he told me to relax my shoulders.”
Mok Gyeong-un said raising the corner of his mouth slyly.
“Turn it off. “This guy!”
“My lord!”
Ho Jong-hyuk must have come to his senses when he saw Jang Neung-ak in pain and shouted aiming at the one-edged slayer.
“Stop right now!”
“I think it would be better to stop there. “Unless you want to see your lord in pain.”
“You really cross the line.”
“Didn’t we cross the line earlier?”
Mok Kyung-un said with a grin.
Ho Jong-hyuk was speechless at the sight of that look full of malice.
What is this guy’s real purpose?
If he provokes them like this he won’t get what he wants so why does he do this?
It was time to wonder.
“You don’t have the heart to give in on your own do you?”
“Ugh… you… the Confucius saw you…”
“After all it would be better to use it than to control it.”
“what?”
“Let’s sleep for now.”
-Papapapap!
At that time Jang Neung-ak who was possessed by blood lost consciousness.
-thud!
“How dare you!”
As soon as Jang Neung-ak fell on the table Ho Jong-hyuk swung his sword at Mok Gyeong-un’s head with a roar of anger.
-Boo!
however
-Park!
The day of destruction was caught in the hands of Mok Gyeong-un.
“You don’t have the ability to learn.”
-Blah blah blah!
As black energy began to form on Mok Gyeong-un’s hand cracks cracked in what little time was left.
Ho Jong-hyuk hurriedly spread his support and tried to make him let go of his hand but
-Sureuk!
Mu Qingyun’s new type had already burrowed right in front of him.
Ho Jong-hyuk gritted his teeth as he saw Mok Gyeong-un’s palm flying right under his chin.
‘Damn it!’
* * *
‘…He has become a real monster.’
Go-chan who was possessed by Ha Chae-rin’s body stuck out his tongue with sincerity.
The truly evil Ho Jong-hyuk and the evil Seo Hye-in were covered in blood and passed out on the floor.
The two tried their best to fight against each other but the results were disastrous.
It ended up like that in just a few days.
Ho Jong-hyuk who had reached the ultimate climax tried to fight by unleashing his hidden secret but it was no use.
All I had to do was take some more time.
‘How can someone who has only just learned martial arts become so strong so quickly?’
It was a reality that was hard to believe.
It really felt like the world was unfair.
Then I heard Mok Gyeong-un’s voice.
“You two please come this way.”
‘Two people? ah!’
Gochan looked at the man who was believed to be possessed besides him.
Did you say that he was Jong-im the servant of the dead Yiak Wi Maeng-cheon?
He felt a faint spiritual power and thought it might be a possessed vengeful spirit and his prediction was correct.
But when did you let this guy possess you?
I was puzzled but when Wei Maeng-cheon who was possessed by Jong-im came up to the pavilion Mok-gyeong-un said.
“Is this your first time seeing each other?”
“….”
“….”
Hearing Mu Qingyun’s words Gao Chan and Wei Mengchen looked at each other with strange eyes.
Are you like that too? He was close to this kind of doctor.
“Shall we settle this first before greeting others?”
“What if this?”
Meanwhile Mok Gyeong-un pointed alternately at Hoeju’s second disciple Jang Neung-ak who was lying on the ground with bloodshot wounds right in front of him and the real Ilak Ho Jong-hyuk who was unconscious and covered in blood.
“I need to possess these two but which of you would like to become the second Confucius?”
The words were almost over.
-Park!
Gao Chan and Wei Meng-cheon all raised their hands at the same time as if in a flash.
