Episode 207
Dan Yuxian stopped the carriage at Kunlun Mountain and climbed the mountain.
As if the term “Light Mountain” is not an exaggeration, the mountain path of Kunlun was so rugged that the average person could not easily climb it.
Therefore, Dansomi had to be left behind, and only the three of them, Nangong-cheon, Sadohak, and Dan Yu-hyeon, climbed the mountain path and moved towards Kunlun Sect.
Namgung-cheon looked around to find any clues about possible evil beasts, but he was unable to gain much.
Finally, the moment they arrived at Kunlun Sect, a sigh of despair came out of Nangong Tian’s mouth.
“I really don’t have anything left.”
There was a big difference between hearing the story and actually seeing the situation with your own eyes. Nangong Cheon walked around the Kunlun Pavilion, which had been reduced to ashes, and caught his breath several times.
Kunryun of the old file room.
It was a place that had given great strength to Jeongdo Murim just by its name, but even when I saw it with my own eyes, I could not realize that it had turned into a heap of ashes and disappeared.
If it was a dream, I wanted to wake up right away, but all the sensations I felt reminded me that it was real.
“Is this his work too?”
Sadohak was impressed as he looked around the sights of Kunlun.
Although it was a place hostile to the Demonic Church, Sadohak also never looked down on Kunlun’s spirit.
The fact that they have protected the land of Cheonghae for a long time, even though their numbers are smaller than that of the Demonic Cult known as the Hundred Thousand Demons, means that they have a lot of strength and spirit.
Therefore, Sadohak did not ignore Kunlun, but in a sense even respected him.
Although it failed to produce anyone who rose to the position of five emperors, it was internally regarded more highly than places like shamans or Shaolin.
The two people’s eyes looked as if they were watching the burnt-out Kunlun.
It seemed as if they were trying to find out something about the evil eye, or there was some hope that some trace would remain.
However, on the contrary, Dan Woo-hyeon gave an indifferent look.
The palace was reduced to ashes and blood stains were visible everywhere.
Even the sight of so much devastation that one could see how many people had died did not interest him. I just stared and opened my mouth.
“It’s amazing power. “The pillar was cut down in one go.”
At Dan Woo-hyeon’s words, Sadohak and Nam Gung-cheon hurriedly approached.
The place he was pointing to was one of the pillars that supported the Kunlun Sect’s temple, and the cut section was extremely smooth.
It was impossible at an ordinary level.
At least I could tell that the examination had been conducted.
Dan Woo-hyeon touched the cross section with a quick glance.
“It is a trace of a knife passing through. “If you look at just the power, Namgung-cheon would be similar to you.”
“Is it that much?”
“Or maybe even more superior than that.”
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled.
The words that came out of his mouth were never lies.
In order to swing a sword and create a clean cross section in this way, one must have not only great strength but also considerable skill in swordsmanship.
In that sense, the person who attacked this place called Kunlun Sect was by no means an ordinary person.
“They say there are as many talented people as grains of sand in the central region. Are you one of those guys?”
Sadohak smiled as if he was having fun.
This is why the fight cannot be stopped.
As warriors are a group of people who only think about finding people who are similar or stronger than themselves and use them as a stepping stone, Sadohak’s ho-yeonji energy (?告然之氣) soared without me knowing.
“That’s not necessarily true.”
At that time, Dan Woo-hyeon looked at the sword marks around him and muttered.
There were traces of corpses around the pillars. Also, there were sword marks left here and there, and they looked familiar at first glance.
However, because it was transformed in a somewhat strange way, it would have been quite difficult for even those who knew it to understand it.
That’s how much he became a monster.
“Have you noticed something?” Nangong Cheon narrowed his eyes and asked.
As I was looking at Dan Woo-hyeon’s expression, I felt like I had a clue. However, he shook his head excitedly without saying anything, which made Namgoongcheon sigh.
“If you know anything, let me know!”
“Well…”
“Is this really what the Black Wind God Demon did?”
When the story about the Black Wind God Demon came out, Sadohak’s eyes were filled with death.
It was so fierce that it felt like it would tear it to shreds at any moment if it were in front of me.
“The Black Wind God Demon’s swordsmanship is not like this. It feels a little more chaotic and dizzy. “It’s very different from this.”
“That means there is someone else after all. “A strong person similar to or stronger than us?”
“Maybe so.”
Sadohak nodded.
He had already been stabbed by the Black Wind God Demon.
As I said before, there are countless strong people in the world, so it might be someone who has a strong hatred for them, enough to destroy Kunlun.
As I thought about that, I became more and more itchy.
However, the reason he did not carelessly tell him to chase after him was because his top priority right now was none other than the man called the Black Wind God Demon.
I don’t know how strong or how great the ‘bastard’ is, but he expressed his firm determination that he will definitely get revenge for killing Dong Bang-gu.
“Heh heh… it’s not good… it’s really not good.”
Namgungcheon shook his head excitedly and sighed.
Not only was the political faction split in half, but Kunlun was wiped out. This was a story that could never be told with a smile, making my feelings all the more complicated.
I couldn’t help but feel bitter at the thought that Jeongdo Murim itself might disappear like this.
“I thought it might be a monk from Podalap Palace…” Sadohak muttered as he looked at other traces. In fact, the most suspicious one was Podalapgung, the chief’s loser.
Because I was suspicious that they came all the way here.
However, there was no trace of their martial arts skills being used.
Like Shaolin, they mainly used swords and swords, and the traces left here were undoubtedly made with swords.
Furthermore, I don’t know if Namgung-cheon would have noticed it to some extent, but it was a sword mark that felt vaguely familiar.
“Are they by any chance the bastards of the political faction?”
“That can’t be possible!”
“Why are you yelling? “That could happen.” Namgungcheon tightly closed his mouth.
I screamed and refuted it, but I resented myself for suspecting that it might really be true.
It seemed like the wounds suffered by a close friend I trusted had not yet healed.
Without realizing it, I smiled bitterly.
“No… I made a mistake. Maybe so. You have to think broadly to not miss anything…”
“Tsk…”
Sadohak clicked his tongue as he looked at Namgungcheon with a bitter expression. I really didn’t like the expression on his face, but I was even more annoyed that I couldn’t get angry.
“Stop it. “I don’t think there’s any use in staying any longer.”
Dan Woo-hyeon nodded at Namgung-cheon’s words.
The Murim Alliance must have already entered this place and completed their investigation.
If there was anything important left, they would have taken it all, so there would be nothing left to gain.
From Namgungcheon’s perspective, it would have been better to finish this journey as quickly as possible and go back to cool off.
Namgung-cheon, who was ahead, glanced at the sword marks engraved on the wall. He narrowed his eyes
and thought about something for a while before smiling and shaking his head.
‘It can’t be… that can’t be…’
I denied the vague thought.
It was then that I heard Sadohak’s voice behind me.
“Now that I think about it, there is a place I want to go.”
“If it’s Heavenly Mountain, we’re already on our way…?”
“No, not there. “It is the original home of Dongbanggu.”
“Are you talking about the guy who is called your right-hand man in the Eastern District?”
Sadohak nodded.
Whether you like it or not, you have to go. It was not Apostolate that killed the Eastern District, but it was Apostolate that ultimately created that whole situation.
I felt like I needed to see the faces of the families at least.
“It doesn’t really matter since we’re on the way to Cheonsan anyway, right?”
“Right.”
As Dan Woo-hyeon nodded, Sado Hak sighed.
The closer Cheonsan got, the heavier the sighs flowing from his mouth became. The momentum was black as if it had been sharply ground.
“Given the circumstances, it seems certain.”
“That’s how I see it, too. So you go…”
Zhuge Un shook his head at Geohwang’s words.
In the future, Moorim will fall into even greater chaos.
It would not be strange if the forces of the old faction or another political faction were to be attacked again at the point when Mo Yonghyeokmun destroyed Kunlun and disappeared.
Even Cheondohoe, who almost abandoned the Moyong family, must be equally anxious.
In this situation, the Emperor hoped that Zhuge Yun would return to the Murim Alliance and resolve all of this.
If it succeeds, there will once again be the possibility of creating a Murim alliance or a political faction.
However, Zhuge Un shook his head.
“Thank you for the offer, but I am not leaving here.”
“Why on earth are you doing this? “Have you even put honey on this unit?”
“It’s not like that, but… I’m a bit worried and I thought this is where I belong.”
Emperor Bang Nobaek sighed again.
No matter what I said more than this, I didn’t think I could take it back.
Seeing the determined expression on his face that he would not give up his will, it was Bang No Baek who eventually raised both hands.
“Then can you at least give me some advice?”
“Of course. “If that’s the case, I’ll lend you Galun’s wisdom at any time.”
Bang No-baek smiled happily and nodded willingly.
This means that Zhuge Un lends his wisdom to the Murim Alliance, not the Cheondohoe. He burst into laughter because that alone was no different from a satisfactory result.
Zhuge Un, who was looking at it, also smiled happily, but various thoughts were already crossing his mind.
‘I heard that Mo Yong-hyeok’s Danjeon was torn off and his arm was cut off…’
Isn’t that strange?
If you are not poisoned and your Danjeon is broken, you will no longer be able to live as a warrior.
However, Mo Yonghyukmun rose again and destroyed Kunlun.
And that in less than a year.
Zhuge Un could not understand it at all.
‘There is someone. There is a person with great ability who can restore the ruined Danjeon… Maybe Wanhouliang is involved…’ I don’t know
who it is, but if he revived the Danjeon and helped Mo Yonghyeokmun regain his strength in a short period of time, it is truly a threat. I decided that he was a character.
Also, if you think about the traces of Man Hu Liang, who disappeared from the day when the Four Moons broke out in the Murim League, it was almost certain that someone was behind him.
‘If they are watching this place, it also explains why the head of the family left me behind…’
Since there were countless masters staying here, they would not have been able to get close and could only watch from afar.
It was impossible to determine how many people were inside or who was inside unless they went outside, so it was impossible to collect accurate information.
However, there has been no one coming in or out for two or three months, and unlike the usual noisy times, it is quiet, so maybe I have noticed it.
It’s Zhuge Un! He cleared his throat, stood up, quickly shook his head and disappeared somewhere.
Geohwang just sat in his seat blankly.
After some time, Zhuge’s luck returned.
In his hands was a set of clothes and a mask.
“What is this again?”
“for a moment… “I hope you can help me.”
“Yes?”
Emperor Bang Nobaek tilted his head as he looked at the items in front of him.
Return to War
