Chapter 173

Episode 173 It doesn’t matter who I am.

Jin Ha-ryeong couldn’t come to his senses.

It was the first time in my life that I had been able to do this fast. The surroundings passed so quickly that I couldn’t make out any of the scenery.

I couldn’t open my eyes properly and it was difficult to breathe.

‘How on earth can you run without crashing?’

It was surprising and wonderful. On the other hand, I also felt a strange joy.

‘This person was such an expert?’

A level of martial arts that can display light techniques to this degree is unimaginable.

‘This is not an ordinary servant.’

She didn’t know if this was something she would be happy about, but she was happy. It felt like the unbridgeable line drawn between him and myself had disappeared.

When the sword dance that was running at such a crazy speed stopped for a moment,

“...I’ll get off for a moment.”

Jin Ha-ryeong, who got off his back, stumbled and fell to the ground. It took several deep breaths before I calmed down.

“What are you? “Did you learn how to walk by learning to walk?”

Geommugeuk was looking somewhere with a smile. Her gaze naturally turned towards that direction. At that moment, Jin Ha-ryeong was surprised.

I thought he had stopped to let me rest, but that wasn’t the case.

I saw the back of someone running in the distance. Surprisingly, it was the grandfather who ran ahead.

‘I caught up with Grandpa!’

I could tell that the reason for stopping for a moment was to avoid overtaking my grandfather.

‘Faster than your grandfather?’

She was so shocked that she almost screamed. She thought her grandfather was the best expert in the world. Some people said that the Heavenly Demon was stronger, but she believed that her grandfather could defeat the Heavenly Demon.

But this man caught up with the grandfather. The grandfather ran with the person who attacked him on his side, and this person ran on his back. Can you catch up with your grandfather even under similar conditions?

I really felt bad having to ask such a cliche question in this situation, but this was all I could think of.

“What are you really?”

Then Geommugeuk answered.

“Seomyeon. “He is the type of person who disappears like smoke once the work is done.”

“Okay, if you’re going to disappear like smoke, at least tell me the truth. Who are you really? “Since you revealed your skills like this, weren’t you planning on revealing your identity as well?”

Geommugeuk finally revealed his prayers. It was a completely different feeling from the presence I had shown so far. At that moment, an image appeared in her mind.

It was a clear sky. The endless sky was so wide and blue.

Fascinated by its beauty, she held out her hand.

Fondant!

I soon realized that it was the sky reflected in the water.

She dipped her hand into the water and slowly submerged her body.

I thought it was shallow, but it was deep. When I looked down, I couldn’t see the floor. What is in the deep sea? The moment she thought she was scared, the image in her mind disappeared and she returned to reality.

A word I heard at that time.

“Sword dance. “He is the second son of the Heavenly Demon Church leader.”

Jin Ha-ryeong was dazed for a moment.

‘what? Church of the Heavenly Demon? Cult leader? son?’

At first I thought I heard something wrong. But which part of that statement did I mishear? Church of the Heavenly Demon? Cult leader? Son?

“You heard wrong. “Where is the recluse?”

“Church of the Heavenly Demon.”

“You heard wrong again. “Where?”

“The place you call the Demon Cult. “Church of the Heavenly Demon.”

Jin Ha-ryeong’s eyes grew bigger and bigger, as if he was waking up from a trance. Are this woman’s eyes this big? Just when she wanted to, she pulled out her sword and stepped back.

Her sword was aimed at Sword Dance. She said beyond the sharp sword.

“All other jokes are acceptable, but jokes about demonic religion are not allowed!”

I was able to find out how our school was viewed by later exponents of the Murim League. To them, the Demonic Cult was a fundamental fear instilled in them from a young age, a group of evil, and the reason they learned martial arts.

But how big was her surprise when she heard that he was the son of the Heavenly Demon?

Her pointed sword trembled. This was the first time in my life that I was so surprised and scared. In comparison, the sword dance performance at the tip of the sword was very calm. It was a prayer as clear and quiet as the sky and as deep as the sea.

At that time, a question suddenly occurred to me.

“Does your grandfather know who you are?”

“You know.”

She couldn’t understand. If this person is a master of the Demonic Cult, there is no way my grandfather would let him be alone with him, right?

“At least you believe that I am not the one who will hurt you. So, put down that sword now.”

She slowly lifted her sword. I was really surprised earlier, but I calmed down when I heard that my grandfather knew.

Geommugeuk explained the situation to her.

“A mysterious force called Cheonmyeonghoe has appeared in the martial arts world. While I was chasing them, I found out that they were trying to recruit you for this Soryong battle. Afterwards, I revealed my identity to the master and we are pursuing the mastermind together. If it weren’t for the granddaughter’s matter, the leader probably wouldn’t have come forward in person. “That too, along with a magician from the Demonic Cult.”

She immediately understood the situation.

“The Lord wanted his identity not to be revealed until the end. “But I told you not to do that.”

“How do I know that?”

“You don’t know?”

“of course. How do I, a mere servant, know what the Murim Lord is doing? “Didn’t the secret leak out while Confucius Jo was handling things?”

It’s something you can’t help but believe. Yes, that’s right. It’s strange to ask this guy about the leader.

“so? “What happened?”

“The person who tried to kill me was captured by the Lord, and Jin Xiaoje and I returned.”

Josin, who was quietly staring at the sword dance performance, spoke coldly.

“Baby, this is all because of you!”

Shhh!

He stabbed Geommugeuk in the neck with the dagger he was planning to give to Jin Ha-ryeong as a gift.

But before he knew it, his wrist was being grabbed by Geommugeuk.

“That’s right, it’s because of me.”

Crack!

The sword dance instantly subdued his demonic and evil blood.

Josin was so shocked that his eyes grew so big that they could no longer grow.

After a while, Josin was dragged into the secret room where Cheolgon had died earlier. The body was removed, but the smell of his spilled blood remained in the space.

The courtier was sitting there with a fearful face.

He was confused. It was shocking to learn that the guy from beginning to end was more expert than he was. I was confused as to what the hell this was.

At that time, the door opened and Sword Dancer came in.

Josin asked with a scared face.

“Who are you?”

“It doesn’t matter who I am. What if you were an attendant who tried to make an asshole out of your foolish pride? What would be different if you were a member of Cheonmyeonghoe that you secretly controlled? “What matters is the situation you are in now.”

Zhao Xin felt it intuitively. At least it’s not someone from the Cheonmyeonghoe.

‘It’s from the leader’s side!’

The courtier made that decision.

“Everyone who attacked Jin Ha-ryeong confessed.”

Josin’s heart sank at those words. Cheol-gon, who was so murderous and scary, confessed so easily? Not even a few hours have passed since you were captured?

“What on earth did you confess to?”

“You told me to kidnap Jin Ha-ryeong.”

Josin shouted.

“This is what you planned!”

“When did I?”

“what?”

Jo Shin’s expression distorted.

“Do you know that attempting to harm the lord or his family is treated as the most serious crime? “If found guilty, he will be beheaded regardless of the reason.”

The courtier was filled with fear when he heard the word beheading. I could tell that the man in front of me had lured me into a trap.

“What do you want from me?”

Geommugeuk, who was staring at him, stood up.

“You look tired. “Get some sleep.”

Piik.

A ray of wind suppressed his blood transfusion.

The courtier lay down and fell asleep.

Outside the secret room, Jin Feicheon, who had been listening to the conversation inside, was waiting.

“What are your next plans?”

“We have to catch the author’s father, Joy Baek. Lord Meng, please meet him and tell him that Zhao Xin has been captured by an organization called Tianminghui and that he was arrested on charges of trying to kill Qin Xiaozhe under their orders.”

The sword dance performance was truly unstoppable.

“Then Joyback will move one way or another. We will now know whether he is the Lord of the Heavenly Order or just someone who has been taken in by the Lord of the Heavenly Order. If he had been included in the Cheonmyeonghoe and did not know that his son had also been included, he might feel betrayed by the Cheonmyeonghoe and hand over the Cheonmyeonghoe to Lord Maeng. Of course, Lord Maeng needs to give us some breathing room.”

“What if he is the lord of the Cheonmyeonghoe?”

“If that were the case, I think they would at least abandon their children.”

The Murim Lord, who was listening to the sword dance, had this thought again.

‘If this person becomes the Heavenly Demon, it won’t be easy for the faction to fight.’

I thought that with this level of drive and insight even at this young age, I would never be able to handle it when I got older. At least at this moment, the sword dance felt like a more difficult enemy than the Cheonmyeonghoeju.

Geommugeuk was worried about the Murim lord, whether he knew his inner thoughts or not.

“I would like to ask you a favor in advance.”

“Something?”

“If you find out the Lord of the Heavenly Order, please leave the finishing touches to me. It’s not because it’s a test for my successor, but considering his meticulousness so far, if he’s left alive, he’ll be planning things even in prison. “It will definitely come back to you later.”

If handled fairly or according to the law, the head of Cheonmyeonghoe and his associates could have been imprisoned. The advice was not to do so.

Because it was not something that could be easily answered as the Murim Lord, Jin Feicheon did not say anything.

Geomugeuk added softly with an understanding look in his eyes.

“I will sweep it all away and disappear quietly.”
