Episode 237
: Drip!
Looking at the blade dripping with blood, Dan Woo-hyeon lightly shook off his sword.
The face of the priest who fell to the floor was filled with shock and he could no longer move.
‘What… what happened?’
Even though I watched the whole situation, I didn’t even realize how things progressed or who died and when.
To that extent, the fight between the two was like a battle of mine, and even with the eyes of Jang Sam-tae, who was of a low level, he couldn’t even follow it.
In addition, I was dumbfounded because I couldn’t hear anything because of the loud noise that made every time the two masters collided.
‘They said something about the expert fighting… you damn old men!’ Thinking of Sadohak and Namgung-cheon, I was impressed without even realizing it. I had to see something to gain something, but I felt like I was going through all the trouble for no reason.
“There are some children still alive inside, so call Hong Wenchang and have him take them away. “It would be better than us stepping forward.”
“I understand.”
Jang Sam-tae bowed his head.
He didn’t like it because he thought that the moment he called Hong Won-chang, all the credit would go to him and nothing would be left to him.
I clicked my tongue because of that, but I knew I had no choice but to do so.
If Dan Woo-hyeon reported the truth that he had solved the problem, he might be called to the imperial court, and many troublesome situations could arise.
Dan Woo-hyeon is trying to prevent that in advance.
After receiving the instructions, Jang Sam-tae quickly went down the mountain.
On the other hand, Dan Woo-hyeon was still looking down at the priest’s body.
“It’s called the Advent Art…” A technique that summons souls wandering around this world and settles them in a new body.
There was only one person who could properly unfold it.
Because it was derived from the senjutsu he was learning.
Dan Woo-hyeon slowly raised his sword and stabbed the corpse’s heart.
Sigh!
The sword penetrated my chest and stuck in the ground.
At the same time, the priest’s body, which had been fine, gradually began to blur and flutter like powder.
In the end, only bones remained.
“It’s a fitting conclusion to the magic of Reverse Heaven.” Dan Woo-hyeon suddenly opened his eyes and reminisced about the past.
Even though he was frowning as if he didn’t like something, he even let out an awkward laugh as if something suddenly occurred to him.
Eventually, when I reached a certain conclusion, a sigh escaped my mouth.
“It’s a terrible relationship.”
Should we call this a bad relationship?
Or should we say that it is a fate that cannot be broken?
The thing they both didn’t like was the same.
Dan Woo-hyeon raised his sword and looked up at the sky.
I muttered to the slowly dawning sky.
“You will never survive this time.”
Hong Wen-chang, who was walking along the main street of Beijing, responded to the cheers coming from all directions by waving his hands.
“Hong Dae-in! “You look great!”
“Waaaaaa-!”
“Hong Daein-! Daein Hong-!”
His name was heard one after another from everywhere.
Behind him, who was walking with cheers, countless police officers were moving towards the imperial palace.
Since he solved and resolved a case that no one had been able to solve until now, it was natural that he received the respect of many people.
“Hahaha, why can’t we solve something for the people!”
[Waaaaaa-!]
It was clear that Hong Won-chang’s life would become more brilliant as he was waving his hands and bursting into laughter.
Among the crowd, there were some people with somber expressions.
Maehyang had a bewildered expression on his face, and Jang Samtae frowned and chewed the sweets he had in his mouth.
Dan Woo-hyeon was the only one whose expression was the same as usual.
“Wow… how can you be so shameless?” Maehyang muttered as if she was disappointed.
Her gaze looking at Hong Won-chang was not kind.
I don’t know what happened last night, but considering Jang Sam-tae’s appearance, it seemed certain that he and Dan Woo-hyeon had resolved this issue.
However, it was annoying to see all the credit going to Hong Won-chang.
‘Quick! Should I at least throw a stone?’
Maehyang looked intently at a sharp stone lying on the ground. Part of me wanted to throw it away, but I felt bad that I couldn’t.
“Are you really going to just leave without seeing that person?”
Jang Sam-tae frowned.
It seemed like he should at least be treated well by Hong Won-chang, but Dan Woo-hyeon tried to move quickly, urging the way.
This time was especially difficult, so I was very scared because I was trying to get the reward.
“If you think about follow-up, it seems like there is no time to meet, so it would be better to go first. “I guess we’ll see each other again in Honam anyway, right?”
“That’s true, but… it would be nice if I could at least get some travel expenses.”
“Haha, don’t worry. “You can receive it later and that’s it.”
Jang Sam-tae nodded.
He’s not running away and his house is in Agyang, so he’ll definitely be able to reap the rewards for last night’s trouble.
Because he pampered Dan Woo-hyeon, not anyone else.
“By the way, Lord Chang, if you pass through Liaoning, you will reach Jilin… Why on earth are you going to Changbai Mountain?”
Jang Sam-
tae asked as he trudged through the countless crowds. As we slowly started to get closer to our destination, I felt a bit anxious.
“Well… why?”
“Are you just going without knowing anything?”
” haha.”
Jang Sam-tae rolled his eyes with a dissatisfied expression.
Dan Woo-hyeon, not anyone else, makes the move himself. An uneasy feeling came over me that something unusual was probably waiting for me.
“We are going to catch a ghost.”
“yes’?”
Jang Sam-tae momentarily wondered if his ears were wrong.
From the mouth of Dan Woo-hyeon, who is not someone else, but a ghost? It felt even more strange because I was a person who would never believe such a thing.
“If it’s a ghost… do you really mean that ghost?”
“Then are there any more ghosts?”
Jang Sam-tae looked at Dan Woo-hyeon with complicated eyes.
‘Do you have a headache?’
I slowly reached out my hand and touched Dan Woo-hyeon’s head.
“No fever… kuwaek!”
Jang Sam-tae, who was mumbling something strange, sat down holding his head.
It hurt so much that I was almost in tears.
Maehyang, who was watching the situation from the side,
clicked her tongue.
“Earn it, earn it, earn it.” “Ugh…，”
Jang Sam-tae was even more impressed by Mae-hyang’s voice, but also felt aggrieved.
Are you going to catch a ghost?
Aren’t you talking about forgetting about ghosts?
Even if there is a ghost, it is difficult to catch it.
“no! Are you really saying you’re going to catch a ghost?”
“Someone who should have died is alive instead of dead, so he is a ghost.”
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled and looked towards the east.
The death of the priest must have already been reported to Nome.
No matter how much a blood demon treats his subordinates like insects, the death of a priest is a huge blow.
Also, when the news spreads, people will realize that Danwu County is in Beijing.
The blood demon’s movements were pictured in his mind.
bang!
The blood demon sitting on the throne hit the armrest.
The red-hot eyes burned like crazy.
The moment he felt the priest’s death, he trembled as if he could not believe it.
“What’s going on!?”
Man Hu-ryang suddenly opened the door of the palace and came inside. The sight of a blood demon dripping with cold sweat appeared in his eyes. Since he had never shown anything like that before, Man Hu Liang stood there, embarrassed.
“The priest is dead….”
”……I”
Man Hou Liang also raised his eyes at the blood demon’s trembling voice. Even though I had never seen him before, the priest was the strongest man after the Blood Demon.
Even the countless powerful people here turned their heads in fear at the mere mention of the priest’s name. How could he die?
Such unbelievable words came from the mouth of a blood demon, not someone else.
“What happened to Blood Gwijo?”
“Oh, there is no news yet.”
Man Hu-liang answered, breaking into a profuse cold sweat.
A long time had passed for the Blood Guard to arrive in Honam. Nevertheless, the fact that there has been no contact yet means that something has happened.
‘But… what could happen to Blood Demon Jo?’ They could have won even if they had Namgung Cheon.
The leader of the Blood Demon Clan possessed skills comparable to those of the Five Emperors, and his subordinates were also special people trained to deal with masters who were several times better than themselves.
Since it was known that Sadohak remained in Demonicism, there must have been only Namgung Bay in Honam Danga.
Of course, variables were always going to exist, and although I don’t know who the people who were playing the role of the fake Gunja Sword and Macheon Army were, they must have had quite high skills.
But they could never be a match for the Blood Demons.
That’s why the blood demon sent it with faith, and failure was impossible.
“You… you were in Beijing!”
The Blood Demon gritted his teeth and glared at the west.
The ‘bastard’ hid himself and came all the way under his chin.
I don’t know why he came to Beijing, but I suspected that he might have been following me.
The Blood Demon narrowed his eyes and opened his mouth.
“Free the children! Run to Beijing and find him! right now!”
“Ah… I understand!”
That can’t be possible.
The Blood Demon denied all the doubts that came to his mind. The reason why Dan Woo-hyeon did not move as planned and why he secretly came to Beijing.
If you think about it, everything came down to one thing, but the blood demon could not admit it at all.
That war spirit is coming in person?
It was something so absurd that it made me laugh, but since all the indicators and actions were pointing to it, I felt uneasy for some reason.
‘unrest? ‘Do you mean I feel anxious?’
The blood demon gave a hollow laugh.
No matter how great your martial arts skills are, you cannot beat your current self.
It was only a one-step move at best, but didn’t they go so far as to push Musin away last time?
With such power, there was no reason to be afraid.
The Blood Demon shook his head and held his head.
Above all, how could he find out where he was?
The place that hides its identity most secretly in this central plain is the Blood Demon Cult, and even if thousands of people surrounded and searched Changbai Mountain at the same time, not even a trace of it would be found.
The Blood Demon,
who had dismissed it as a mere coincidence, was impressed.
However, at the end of his gaze, there were two hands still covered in cold sweat.
