< Episode 119: Cause and effect and retribution (2) >
King Gyujongsin of Yeongchang and his three vassals who had assisted him for a long time frowned at the strange scene unfolding before their eyes.
This was because the family’s successor Gyu Jung-sun behaved strangely on his own.
It seemed as if it was attacking someone even though I couldn’t see it and suddenly my body felt like it was being pinched by something.
He even vomited blood.
So I tried to help him.
“Knock knock. This…you damn bitch! Your bitch…is fake. “Kyu…Kyu Sohaha…is dead.”
‘!?’
It was stopped by the unexpected words spoken out of nowhere.
What on earth does this mean?
Why is this kid suddenly bringing up the dead Soha?
“house owner! Continue drinking Sogaju…”
“For a moment… leave me alone for a moment.”
At the command of the head of the family they left the middle alone for a while.
However the action that followed was a sight to behold.
They couldn’t see it but he was talking to someone in the middle of the day and later he performed a bizarre evil technique and lunged at something invisible pretending to strangle it and then spitting out shocking words one after another.
“You damn bitch! “You bitches dare to seek revenge!”
‘plural?’
“stop? stop? Hahahahaha.”
A laugh full of madness.
Gaju was at a loss for words at the sight of Jung Joong whom she had never seen before.
The face of the middle child was truly evil itself.
He only showed a gentle appearance until he was appointed as his successor and he was a child who maintained his dignity even after becoming heir.
But how did he hide this side of himself?
It was a puzzling moment.
“I don’t know how you survived with your face crushed but you’re such an idiot Soha.”
‘!?’
The vassals were shocked by the next words and did not know what to do.
I ended up hearing something terrible that I shouldn’t have known.
What on earth is going on?
They looked at the head of the family in confusion.
– Creepy!
The gaze of the head of the family who was already mid-year was no longer the gaze of her child.
Without knowing this Joong-Joong continued to say things that provoked the head of the household without any regard for his surroundings.
“Why are you angry? “I tried my best to get revenge but I couldn’t even do one thing properly and ended up dying by my hands again.”
Gyu Jong-shin no longer just watched the middle of the season.
Gyu Jong-shin asked aiming his German weapon the master spear Hanwi (cold spear) at Jong-sun’s neck.
“Just now… try talking about that again.”
At the sound of his voice Jong-soon’s expression which had been displaying madness without anyone noticing until just now hardened.
Jong-soon slowly raised his head and looked around unable to hide his embarrassment.
“Ah father. “Something…”
“Did you kill Soha?”
“….”
He should have denied it right away but he was momentarily speechless when he made eye contact with his adoptive father Gyu Jong-shin who contrary to his calm face was burning with anger.
In the middle of the year I was at a loss as to how to get through this situation.
After he obeys His orders and secures ‘it’ he must escape the Heaven and Earth Association and I don’t know how to explain it.
Even if you don’t have much time and try to persuade will it work?
He said those things himself.
Joong-Joong who had been thinking about a lot of things for a split second spoke quickly.
“Father… this is a trap.”
“pitfall?”
“I don’t know what they did but I think I was caught by some kind of witchcraft. So I think I said things that would be misunderstood but that was absolutely not the case. Don’t you know? “How much I cared for you… my brother.”
“…Didn’t you say you don’t know how your brother died?”
“yes?”
“It was a matter of that child’s honor and I didn’t tell you because I was afraid you would be shocked. But how do you know that?”
Gyu Jong-shin was a member of the Five Kings of Cheonjihoe.
Therefore he overturned Sihyeolgok and Wonsalgak to find out how his daughter Gyu So-ha died.
However because he was murdered so horribly he kept it secret from the government.
‘Damn it.’
I felt it in an instant.
No matter what you say there is no explanation.
There was only one way to do this.
‘We have to escape.’
Fortunately he was using the explosive technique that he had taught him so at this moment even the King of Spiritual Spears Kyu Jong-shin could easily handle himself…
-Poof!
At that moment King Gyu Jong-shin’s famous spear Hanwi penetrated his neck.
The middle-aged man opened his eyes wide opened his mouth and then lowered his head.
No matter how much his power increased by more than two-fold due to the explosive technique he was an expert who reached the pinnacle of perfection and King Gyu Jong-sin of Yeongchang was one of the Eight Stars known as the best martial artist and reached the state of Hwagyeong.
There was no way to escape from the situation where his neck was already aimed at him.
A teardrop flowed from one of the eyes of Yeongchang King Gyu Jong-sin who was glaring at Joong-sin who had just passed away.
‘Ahh. Soha.’
Gyu Jong-shin was so heartbroken.
He felt so sad when he thought of his one and only girl who died in agony after having her face crushed by no one else but his adoptive younger brother.
I’m shedding tears like that
-Sureuk!
Something strange happened in his eyes.
That’s right Gyu So-ha who died right in front of her was looking at her with his affectionate face.
“You…you…”
-father.
Her dead daughter called herself.
If it weren’t for her wife’s will I wanted to raise her as her daughter.
She wanted to raise herself more beautifully than anyone else.
But I couldn’t.
He even sent a poem he did not want to send to Hyeolgok causing him to face death.
Guilt and longing surrounded his heart at the same time.
“I…I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. “For you… as a father you really… have done something you couldn’t do.”
Gyu Soha shook his head at him who was choking in pain.
And then he smiled brightly.
It was as if he was saying he was okay.
At that moment Gyu Jong-shin with her lips twitching and her eyes red tried to extend her hand towards her her daughter-in-law with her flushed face.
But at that moment Gyu So-ha’s body became bright and soon her body dispersed like hundreds of fireflies flying away.
“Soha! Soha!”
Gyujongshin who was waving his hand towards the scattered lights soon sobbed.
He wanted me to blame him but how could you leave me smiling so brightly?
Ahhh. Soha. Soha. My only child.
‘house owner.’
The three retainers looked sadly at the head of the family who was sobbing in sadness.
That said
-Park!
At that moment the deceased’s head suddenly exploded.
‘!?’
The retainers could not hide their wonder as they saw this.
Although it was clearly pierced through the neck it didn’t seem like the head of the family had sent any special energy to the head.
But what on earth is going on?
* * *
Dark war.
The secret meeting’s wooden tablet in the shadows shook his head in disappointment.
The first place that tried to release it and cause him pain was Cheonjihoe.
Each of the six demons the pinnacle of imamangryang and infinitely close to divine beasts is a disaster and a calamity.
But it seemed like things didn’t go as planned.
“Are you Mokgan?”
The man with long hair and red lips must have read how uncomfortable he was and called carefully.
Just a moment ago he was expecting that a disaster would soon occur in the Heaven and Earth Association.
He didn’t react well to something.
Then Mokgan waved his hand and said.
“The King of Assassins gives up.”
“yes?”
“It doesn’t matter. In any case the nine-hwan-tian-gu (拘貛天狗) was just a starting point. “Now that it’s in my hands the game is completely tilted.”
The man with red lips knew very well what the wooden sign said.
How long did it take the wooden tablet to obtain it?
Although it has been a long time since it was sealed it was once said to be the best in terms of magical power among all six demons and was the strongest imamangryang compared to a monster monkey that deviated from nature.
* * *
-Paaaaaaaaa!
Someone was flying through the air at incredible speed.
The person who was spreading the Neunggongheodo (凌空虛道) cutting through the atmosphere in a way that was difficult to discern with the naked eye was none other than Mok Gyeong-un.
The speed at which Mok-gyeong-un who had already realized his free-spirited ability was flying was far beyond the level of ordinary light-gong.
-Shudder!
Mok Kyung-un who was flying so fast soon frowned.
That’s right too
‘What did you just do?’
This feeling was unmistakable.
One of his ties to himself was broken.
Mo Qingyun had already felt a similar sensation to this when he lost the food spirit Wei Mengchen.
This was a completely different feeling from when Cheongnyeong’s connection was cut off.
‘no way?’
Has one of the food spirits disappeared?
However what was quite different from the sensation at that time was that there was almost no reaction when something was cut off.
What on earth is this?
It was a moment of puzzlement.
Someone’s intention was conveyed into Mok Gyeong-un’s mind.
-Master.
The doctor with the voice was none other than the food spirit demon monk.
-Ma Seung.
-The wooden box was recovered safely and as you said they came after it.
-…So what did you do?
-The remaining snares were handled well. but.
-but?
-Gyu So-ha relieved his resentment in the process.
-……
The cessation of a relationship does not mean extinction?
So does this mean that you achieved Buddhahood after resolving the resentment you were holding?
Even though I had food spirits with me a situation happened that I had never experienced before.
Mok Gyeong-un’s eyes became subtle when he learned of this.
Then the voice of Cheongryeong rang in my ears.
-Why are you doing that?
-yes?
-What is going on that makes you look like that?
Now the young spirit was able to read Mok Gyeong-un’s state of mind to some extent even through subtle changes in facial expressions.
Mok Kyung-un gave no answer to her question.
That was because a new unexpected conflict arose in my head.
The place he was heading now was where the main body of the wooden tablet was located.
-Rebirth?
‘….’
As expected the target of the secret meeting was the Six Demons which can be said to be the pinnacle of spiritual beasts.
Fortunately it is said that the release of the Assassin King at the headquarters of the Cheonjihoe which can be said to be the base was prevented from being released from the seal but if Jin Ye-rin’s information is accurate there were still three more.
However since these three six horses were located east of the northwestern and southwestern ends of the central plains it was virtually impossible to stop them in time.
Therefore there was only one ideal method for Mokgyeongun to take.
‘Hit your head.’
Mokgan the leader of the secret society and the source of everything.
If only the mastermind and culprit could be killed all of this might be resolved naturally.
The same goes for revenge for yourself and Youngryeong.
But a new worry arose.
What if… what happens if the main body of the wooden tablet dies and the deep resentment that Cheongryeong has built up for a hundred years is resolved?
Will she also unexpectedly attain Buddhahood like Kyu So-ha?
As Mok Gyeong-un who had never thought about this part his mind couldn’t help but become complicated.
Rather than targeting the main body of the wooden tablet first it might have been better just in case to let the spirit settle down in Wi So-yeon the spirit and be reincarnated as he had tried to do.
however
-closely!
Mok Kyung-un’s fist gained strength.
If he didn’t deal with the wooden tablet now that he knew the location of the main body he might end up in the type of catastrophe he wanted.
We would soon reach his location and a decision had to be made.
Should reviving the spirit come first? Or would it be better to kill him first?
It was a moment of conflict.
-Shudder!
‘this!’
Mok Gyeong-un’s gaze immediately turned downward.
At that moment a blindingly intense light burst from the ground and enveloped him with no time to escape.
