< Episode 69: Queen Ho (1) >
“Why don’t you join me too? “Guys.”
‘!?’
The sudden appearance of a peerless beauty dressed in gorgeous red-gold clothes instantly hardened the expressions of Mok Gyeong-un and the young man who possessed the bodies of King Gyeongchin.
As expected this woman whom I had never seen before was holding in her hands the torn head of Ho Gong the Taegam of Seochang.
‘what?’
Mok Kyung-un’s hardened eyes shook.
She surrounded the room with death energy completely blocking out her sounds so she couldn’t really feel the sounds coming from outside.
But she felt nothing about this woman who opened the door.
She cannot see the color of her energy either with her senses or with her naked eyes.
‘…What is it?’
There was a similar situation like this once.
That was when she met an old man who had a bamboo fishing rod.
She was so overwhelming that it was difficult to even feel her energy and even though she opened the magical power of her three eyes her eyes could not bear the pressure of her energy.
At that time the spirit possessed by King Gyeongchin opened her mouth.
“Ho queen?”
Once you are possessed you will be able to read her memories depending on your level of assimilation.
Even if it wasn’t a complete fairy tale anyone who knew King Gyeongchin could recognize Cheongnyeong at once.
‘Ho queen?’
Mok Gyeong-un couldn’t help but wonder at Cheongryeong’s words.
If she was called Queen Consort wasn’t she one of the two women said to be favored by the emperor?
How did she show up holding the head of Seochang’s Taegam Ho Gong who had gone out to ask for help?
While she was wondering Cheongnyeong opened her mouth with a look of confusion.
“What on earth are you doing Lady Ho? Isn’t it the head of Ho Gong in her hand?”
She spoke in a tone as if she were a real King of Gyeongchin.
With this Mo Kyung-yun understood her young spirit’s intentions at once.
She seemed to be trying to play King Gyeongchin for now since she couldn’t figure out her opponent’s true identity.
In response Mok Gyeong-un put his hands together and tried to bow his head to match her rhythm.
however
“Foot.”
The woman called Queen Ho let out her sneer.
Then she threw the gun she was holding at her head.
-thud! Degurrrrr!
Lady Hu walked into her quarters and opened her mouth.
“Act in moderation. Vengeful spirit.”
‘!?’
At those words the eyes of Cheongryeong who was possessed by King Gyeongchin slightly wavered.
What exactly is this woman?
Because she had risen to the level of a male spirit it was difficult for even her considerable followers to understand that she was possessed.
But she noticed it right away.
She speaks with such confidence that it’s hard to shake off her pretense.
At this Cheongryeong spoke with her sharp eyes.
“What are you?”
“you?”
“okay. “What are you…”
-Park!
It was that moment.
In an instant Lady Ho appeared in front of Cheongnyeong who was possessed by King Gyeongchin and tried to grab her by the neck.
But in that moment
-Park!
Qing Ling who had tried to grab her was pushed to her side and someone grabbed her Ho Guifei’s wrist.
He was none other than Mok Gyeong-un.
Looking at her grabbed wrist Lady Hu raised the corner of her mouth and said.
“Pretty fast for an old man with her face huh?”
“…”
Mo Kyung-un did not respond to her words.
No it was right that I couldn’t do it.
-Purrrrr!
She was holding on to her wrist but despite her frailty it was difficult to hold on with such incredible strength.
This was the moment when I thought I should take her hand off.
-puck! Quang!
At that moment Mo Gyeong-un’s body which was holding Lady Ho’s wrist crashed into the wall of the living quarters and broke through.
Queen Ho lightly shook off her neck and immediately turned her gaze to Cheongnyeong.
“I know it’s quite high-level but I don’t seem to understand the topic. Vengeful spirit.”
“What are you…..”
-bang!
At that moment before she could finish speaking Cheongryeong’s body was thrown to the floor.
Queen Ho was holding her head and pressing it down. Normally she shouldn’t be able to feel pain no matter how much she possesses a human body.
“Off.”
A sour voice burst out from the strong pain that seemed to penetrate her head.
Cheongryeong looked at Lady Ho with her eyes widened in embarrassment.
It looked as if he was enjoying this situation as he was grinning and making an expression of fun.
Cheongryeong could instinctively know from that appearance.
‘This woman…is not human.’
It wasn’t something that came from personality.
It wasn’t really human.
She did not notice it because her aura was hidden but this force pressing down on her own head was unmistakably a magical force.
It was a magical power so vast and pure that it was difficult to fathom.
If this is just a matter of convenience what is the true nature of this being?
‘Demon Beast?’
no.
She could have been more than that.
No matter how high-ranked the demonic beast was he himself who had reached the level of a male spirit as a vengeful spirit had no less spiritual power than him.
At least she couldn’t be this overwhelmingly oppressed.
That can’t be true
‘Spirit beast?’
Is this beautiful woman in human form a spirit beast?
Yeongsu was the highest level in terms of imamangryang.
How could such a being exist in the imperial palace as a woman favored by the emperor?
While I was perplexed Lady Ho said.
“He’s a fun kid. Most vengeful spirits or monsters would not dare to think of entering my territory but seeing how they came in so fearlessly.”
-Cow wow!
“Ahh!”
As Queen Ho pressed her head harder a scream came out of Qingnyeong’s mouth.
Cheongnyeong felt pain as if her spiritual body itself would be broken.
It was that moment.
-Gooooooooo!
A vast force spreading throughout the place.
With that four pillars rose up around her queen.
The four pillars that rose up like that caught Lady Ho’s eyes.
“I wonder what this is.”
Lady Ho looked at her pillar and then quickly looked away.
There she was making a hand sign with one hand and clutching a sword with the other walking out from the other side of the broken wall with the back of her neck.
“I said I could feel the power and I thought you could do magic.”
As soon as she finished speaking her neck stretched out her sword finger toward Queen Ho.
“Four Peaks Chain Technique.”
-Chaaaaaa!
At the same time a main wall was created from the pillars and connected.
Then she immediately tried to trap Ho Guifei.
“Axis!”
Mok Kyung-un pretended to clasp her palms.
Then the size of the wall of the Four Peaks Chain Technique began to decrease.
The intention was to cleverly reduce the main wall and trap her Qingnyeong by cutting it only up to the wrist of Lady Hu who was pressing down on her head.
But that was right then.
“You have a lot of talent but what can you do?”
Lady Ho chuckled and then snapped her fingers at the wall of her main force which she was about to follow.
-Taeeaeaeaeaeaeang!
-Wow!
At that moment with a recoil Mo Kyung-un’s palm was torn and forced open.
As if that wasn’t enough the wall of the main force that was trying to imprison Lady Ho was shattered and the main force was scattered in all directions.
“What should I do if my remaining tricks don’t work…?”
-Sureuk!
At that time Mo Kyung-un’s new form appeared in front of her.
Then she stabbed the sword filled with sharp predictions towards Lady Ho’s eyes.
Mok Gyeong-un realizing that her opponent was impervious to her magic chose to immediately switch to martial arts and attack her directly.
however
-Park!
Lady Hu waved her hand without avoiding it at all.
Then the new form of Mok Gyeong-un which had stabbed her sword became an afterimage and dispersed.
At the same time
-puck! bang!
Her new form of neck training hit something right behind her and landed on her floor.
It hit so hard that it broke through the floor of the shelter and created a dent in the area around it.
“Rebirth!”
Cheongryeong was surprised and called Mok Gyeong-un.
Then I soon noticed something rustling above the place where Mok Kyung-un had fallen.
It was a tail with golden fur.
‘tail?’
The place where the tail was connected was none other than under Queen Ho’s skirt.
Guifei Hu covered the corner of her mouth and she smiled and said.
“Hohohohoho that kind of self-immolation technique doesn’t work on me. No you have to make at least ten clones so you can take advantage of the gaps.”
-Sneaking!
With her golden tails came up from Lady Hu’s skirt.
The number of tails was quite large.
When the young spirit saw the tail his pupils shook violently.
‘Golden tail?’
It was a moment.
An ugly and dark energy suddenly rose from the cavernous floor.
It was magical energy.
There was interest in Lady Ho’s eyes as she looked at the flowing magic energy.
It was my first time feeling this kind of energy.
‘It’s an energy I’ve never felt before not from humans not from vengeful spirits but from monsters…’
It was right then.
-Shhhh!
The magic energy that was surging soon exploded several times in an instant.
Then within the hollow hole the energy gathered into one point and passed by Queen Ho in a split second.
-Okay!
A black line appeared in the air.
At the same time Mok Gyeong-un stood right behind Lady Ho and let out a rough breath.
“Haa…haa….”
The greatest method he could use at the moment was the method of gathering all his sword skills and capabilities into one point.
-Wow! Wow!
Every muscle in his body stood up and cried out.
Although it wasn’t as bad as before it was still a tremendous technique beyond enlightenment so it couldn’t be used more than once in a row at the moment.
Mo Kyung-yun slowly turned his head.
‘!?’
Mo Kyung-yun turned his head and frowned.
Even though it was the best sword that he had used with all his might Lady Ho was unconcerned.
No it wasn’t nothing.
-Gurgling!
There was a scratch on her beautiful cheek and a drop of blood flowed from it.
Lady Ho wiped it away with her sleeve and immediately raised an eyebrow.
“blood….”
It was only a drop but how long had it really been?
No virtually none.
It was the first time since birth that a mere human had hurt him.
Lady Ho’s eyes became cold and soon the color of her eyes and hair began to change.
-Srrrrr!
It was golden enough to feel noble and gorgeous.
Seeing this change in her Mo Gyeong-un swallowed his dry saliva.
Even without opening the magical power of the Three Eyes the aura emanating from Lady Hu who had changed was so distant that it sent shivers down her spine.
-Sneaking!
Her hair and eyes turned golden and her nine tails rose like mountain peaks behind her.
‘Nine tails?’
When Mo Kyung-un saw this something passed through his mind.
[Among the six demons there is one who is said to be even worse than the King of Power who is said to be the oldest. Its existence is malice itself and leads everything to destruction.]
[….Leading to destruction?]
[Due to its existence many countries including Eunju and others since the ancient times were destroyed.]
[Eunju? Could it be that the spirit you are talking about….]
[okay. It is the Great Cow Imaemangyang Geummogumi (金毛九尾) who has a hundred faces and is also called Baekmyeonin (百面人) and has nine golden tails full of ominous magical power.]
