< The Return of the God of War Side Story Episode 64 >
“What…? “Disappeared?”
“…yes.”
Yuk Cheol-wan couldn’t believe his ears.
I can’t find any traces of those guys in Hubei. Those words came out of the subordinate’s mouth just now.
The Murim Alliance and the Cheondohoe split and their power was divided, and as a result, their intelligence power was also split in half.
Therefore, the organization with the most reliable information power in the current Central Committee has no choice but to be Cheonji Church.
Still, we couldn’t find them… Is that what you’re saying?
Yuk Cheol-wan let out a long sigh and leaned back in his chair, as if he could not easily accept the situation.
Immediately, he held his eyebrows and frowned.
“I don’t understand. “I’m sure it was in Hubei… shouldn’t I just find it along that road?”
“Meanwhile, it has rained a lot and the traces have been erased, making it difficult to track them down, and even in Haomun, which is said to be the largest source of information, they said they didn’t find anything in particular….” “They say
Haomun can’t find it… You’re not hiding it, are you?”
“I can’t figure it out that far.”
Yuk Cheolwan smiled bitterly.
Since Hao-moon had been without any information until now, I couldn’t easily believe them even if they said they couldn’t find out. It made me think that perhaps they were playing a prank.
But then he shook his head.
How much money does Haomun spend each year?
When it comes to money, people who don’t care enough about money won’t try to hide someone by throwing it away. Currently, the only place that gives the largest amount of money to Haomun is Tianchijiao.
Also, the whereabouts of the missing things are important, but isn’t there another incident? So.
“The ban… what happened to that girl?”
“They say the party has stopped tracking.”
“What do you mean by that!?”
“I don’t know the exact thing, but I wonder if I missed it…”
Yuk Cheol-wan burst out laughing as if he was dumbfounded.
It is the Four Heavenly Danga of the world, not any other place.
He is famous for his stubbornness and is not afraid of any means or methods if he has a desired goal. They have been called the Eight Great Powers for a long time, and they are in charge of one axis of the political power, so they are named the prestigious faction, but if you look at their actual behavior, they are no different from the Sa Sect or the Demon Cult.
Those guys give up the chase with a priestess right in front of them?
That’s not even funny.
“What nonsense…!”
“Or it is possible that they were secretly captured and imprisoned. In fact… I used all the intelligence power in Sacheon to search for it, but there wasn’t even a trace.”
Yuk Cheol-wan nodded at the man’s words.
This hypothesis is a little more correct. It is said that there are countless believers of Cheonjiism in Sacheon, but only Jin Taegong can protect the priestess from the Tang family.
However, even he would not have been able to stop the party’s power alone, so the fact that he was captured seemed more credible.
“Hmm… the latter is probably correct. There is no way the party would give up so easily. But… the key is why they didn’t announce it after they caught it.”
“We will find out as quickly as possible.”
“Okay… and what about that?”
At that moment, Yuk Cheolwan’s eyes sparkled.
In fact, whether you are a divine beast or a divine woman, there is one thing that is more important than those things. Isn’t this something that has been prepared for a long time and can be completed soon?
Thinking about that made me laugh, as if my heart was shaking.
“Currently… they are said to be heading here quickly. “Please leave it in mind.”
“ha ha ha! okay! That’s how it should be! “It’s worth the effort.”
Yuk Cheolwan burst out laughing and his expression brightened.
Now I can finally achieve what I have long wanted to achieve. How much time and money have you spent so far? How much effort did it take?
As I thought about seeing the results soon, all the unpleasant stories immediately disappeared from my mind.
With this, Cheonjigyo will become even more perfect.

“How come this place has sin rocks and mountains?”
“I heard it was a barren place, but it’s worse than I heard.”
Those moving on the road to Xinjiang shook their heads as they looked at the scenery around them. It’s not that there is no fertile land, but most of it is.
I don’t know if I took the wrong route or if it was like this in nature, but I couldn’t easily find the green scenery I often saw in Jungwon wherever I looked.
“…Still, it’s very cool because it’s different from the midfield.”
“It’s only a day or two that’s cool… It’s already been seven days and this is won…”
Jang Sam-tae grumbled, sitting leisurely in the coach seat and glaring at Jin Tae-gong. As Namgung So-hye said, it is a beautiful scenery, but as I keep looking at it, I feel like I am getting angry because I am being bitten all the time.
Even while traveling on the main road, the road is so bad that it shakes a lot. This means that there are a lot of stones and gravel because the road was not properly paved.
Geum Geum-ran, who could not learn martial arts properly, had to keep moaning because his back hurt.
“How long…how long do we have to go?”
“Aren’t you guys? “Everyone else is fine, but why are you the one who is so damned?”
“No… why is it okay… on earth.”
The carriage rattles ceaselessly.
Running like this for not a day or two, but seven days, will naturally put a strain on your back, but no one says anything about it.
Other monsters are like that, so let’s assume that’s the case.
Why on earth does Dan So-mi, who has not learned martial arts properly, say anything?
Geum Geum-ran managed to look outside through the window attached to the carriage.
“Damn… you damn girl…! How dare you… use White Tiger’s sacred back like a horse!”
I frowned unconsciously at the scenery outside the window. Dansomi was hanging on the back of a leisurely running white tiger, and in Dansomi’s arms was a white cat.
Anyone could see that she was running with someone on her back, but what was strange was that Dansomi had a very relaxed expression.
Just looking at its expression, it looked a hundred times better than the rattling carriage.
Even when I sleep on it, it doesn’t fall off or anything. It’s as if a white tiger is controlling Dansomi’s condition while running.
It may be an absurd story, but otherwise does it make sense for it to never fall off? Geum Geum-ran’s plan to laugh at him went to waste.
“I think we’re almost there.”
At that time, Dan Woo-hyeon, who had been quietly closing his eyes, slowly opened them and looked straight ahead. At the end of his line of sight, he saw a village on the border between Xijiang and Xinjiang.
If you go beyond that village, it will become Xinjiang from then on.
The scale of the place is smaller than expected.
The only people who come and go are the occasional village head and a few people who trade in Xinjiang, so the village has not grown much, and thanks to that, it is a quiet place.
Also, it is not the feeling you often see in midfield.
Would you say it literally looks barren?
As the carriage passed along the road, I saw several villagers, but none of them had an exotic appearance and did not look like they were from the Central Plains at first glance.
“Are you resting here today?”
“okay. If that’s the case, I’ll have to sleep on the street…”
Even if you look around, you can’t find any guesthouses. When I saw people camping in a corner, it seemed like the atmosphere here was paying someone to rent a house or sleeping outside.
“Renting a house… must be difficult, right?”
“It doesn’t seem very good.”
At Dan Woo-hyeon’s words, Namgung So-hye smiled bitterly and nodded. Since it was a small, undeveloped village, it didn’t seem like it would be much different from sleeping outside.
It’s just wasted money being spent.
And Dan Woo-hyeon would never tolerate such a thing.
“Then shall we take a seat nearby?”
“okay.”
Jang Sam-tae looked around and chose a place that looked good. In other places, the ground was uneven and there were a lot of stones and pebbles, so it didn’t seem like it would be easy to sleep.
However, the area where people are camping is wider than expected and is even flat. Unlike other places, it seemed like a very suitable place for camping.
The only downside is that I have to get involved with other people, but right now there seems to be no other alternative than that position.
Jang Sam-tae led the horse and stopped at the spot.
The moment I looked around and saw the people camping nearby, my eyes widened as if I had discovered something. Soon he quickly turned his head and looked at Dan Woo-hyeon.
“Hahaha, come on, Master Jang. “Why don’t you go a little further and rest today?”
“I don’t know how much longer I have to go. “Let’s rest here today.”
“Oh no, there might be a good place if we go a little further. Do you know anything? A big village might come out and sleep in guesthouses!”
“Oh my – that’s nice. Let’s go to our guest house and sleep. “I can’t sleep on the floor anymore because of my back.”
Geum Geum-ran, who was clueless, clapped his hands in delight when he was told he was a guest. Just moving around on a rickety carriage was difficult, but sleeping on the bare floor, not even a bed, made me feel like my whole body was gone.
So she tried to express it, but Jang Sam-tae and Dan Woo-hyeon did not even pretend to listen to her.
“Ah… no, that’s….”
“Stop talking nonsense and just unload your luggage. “It’s almost time for Somi to get hungry…”
Dan Woo-hyeon glanced at the sky.
It is now almost time for the sun to set.
Somi has been eating at this exact time since childhood. Dan Woo-hyeon’s words were accurate, as he had never once missed that time.
“Ah… I’m hungry…”
Dansomi, who was lying limp on Baekho’s back, let out a groan. Not only was I in the habit of eating at this time, but the process of getting here wasn’t so smooth, so it was more difficult to use up my stamina than other times.
Dan So-mi glanced at Jang Sam-tae.
“Man… I’m hungry.”
“Yeah… right…”
Jang Sam-tae couldn’t bear to refuse.
How can I look at those eyes and tell them to go a little further? It would never be possible for humans.
Jang Sam-tae finally gave up and looked at Jin Tae-gong who was still sitting in the coach seat.
“what are you doing? “Hurry, quickly, without moving your luggage!”
“No… I was waiting rather than going anywhere.”
“You’re not going! Then you have to move quickly!”
Jang Sam-tae got angry for no reason and started taking out his luggage. He seemed to be planning on preparing a meal, leaving the camping preparations to Jin Tae-gong.
Sigh –
At that time, I heard someone approaching from behind.
flinch! Even though Jang Sam-tae, who was shaking, felt a presence, he sat down and was busy making a fire.
“Look here.”
The sound I soon heard gave me goosebumps all over my body.
Why doesn’t that voice change even after ten years?
That’s why I carefully opened my mouth, pretending not to notice.
“Why… do you do that?”
“I guess it’s just an old man’s illusion… but the face is so familiar, so don’t find it strange. So… aren’t you Samtae?”
I flinched and trembled at the words I soon heard.
It was only a brief eye contact, but did you recall memories from ten years ago? They say your memory declines as you get older, but I think that’s all a lie.
How can these old people keep up?
Jang Sam-tae smiled bitterly.
“no.”
Without even turning his head, he closed his mouth while confirming.
