Episode 217:

The shock the demonic cultists received would be immeasurable.

Sadohak, who came back alive and well, struck a harsh blow at the elders and guardians, and the Black Wind God Demon, who had filled the Demonic Cult with fear and ruled it for a short time, died without leaving a trace.

At the center of the incident was an unknown expert in the Department of Apostolate.

“You must never let this leak out! “Find out the spies, kill them all, and if there is anyone who talks about this incident, be honest with them!”

An emergency was immediately put into effect and the entire Demonic Bridge was placed under control. No one could get out, not even Jeon Seo-gu.

If there was anyone suspected of being a spy, they would hit their head without mercy, and if there was any sign of information leaking out, they would arrest and imprison anyone.

Then Dan Woo-hyeon and his companions left Cheonsan with a carriage and were returning to Honam.

Since it was a journey to deal with the Black Wind God Demon, they had to return as soon as that goal was accomplished.

The carriage stopped when it arrived at Oromokje, which can be said to be the center of Xinjiang.

After staying there for a night, when they were about to move again, Dan Woo-hyeon did not get on the carriage and instead looked at the others.

“I have somewhere to go for a while.”

“huh? “Weren’t we going together?” Namgungcheon tilted his head at the unexpected remark. Everyone, including Dansomi, looked surprised.

“Go back first.”

“Aren’t you going together?”

Dan So-mi grabbed Dan Woo-hyeon’s sleeve and looked up with anxious eyes.

Although there were many people by her side, Somi was anxious about being separated from Dan Woo-hyeon.

It was even more so because Apostle Hak was also away.

Sadohak, who destroyed the Demonic Cult but did not want it to go extinct, remained in the Demonic Cult and said he would return after completing the cleanup.

So-mi was a little downcast, but when she heard that Dan Woo-hyeon was going separately, her anxiety inevitably grew.

Dan Woohyun hugged Somi like that.

“do not worry. “I will follow you soon.”

“Are you coming soon?”

“okay.”

Upon hearing the answer, Dan So-mi smiled brightly.

Until now, Dan Woo-hyun has never lied to So-mi.

That’s why I have no choice but to believe it.

However, Namgungcheon felt very dissatisfied.

“How about we go together?”

“No, alone is enough.”

I frowned when I heard that I was alone.

Dan Woo-hyeon’s expression showed no emotion at all, so it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

But it didn’t seem like he was just going to cruise alone.

At best, if that was the reason, there was no way we wouldn’t go together.

“Hey... then shall I go with you? You’re alone and lonely. “I might even need someone to run errands for me.”

Namgung So-hye slowly raised her hand and gave an embarrassed look.

Dan Woo-hyeon quietly looked at Namgung So-hye and smiled.

“Hmm, then I’d rather take that guy with me

.”

Jang Sam-tae was startled by the unexpected words.

I tried to frown as if I absolutely hated it, but Dan Woo-hyeon just stared at me without saying a word.

Under the unspoken pressure, Jang Sam-tae turned his head to avoid his gaze and made excuses.

“Well... Now that I think about it, when I get back, I have to buy Somi new clothes... I have to cook her a delicious meal... Oh, I think I have to do some housecleaning... There’s a lot of work to do. under.

under. under.”

Namgung So-hye sighed at the sight of him desperately expressing his unwillingness to follow.

I felt like I was better than that person, but I didn’t like it because I felt like I was falling behind.

She puffed out her cheeks and hugged Dansomi.

“Bye!”

He snorted and went into the carriage.

Namgung-cheon spoke in embarrassment as dissatisfied sounds continued to flow from inside the carriage.

“I’m sorry. “I’m still immature...”

“I don’t care. Rather, get ready, Samtae.”

“Eh? Are you really going? “Aren’t you going back to Honam?”

“no.”

“Let’s get this sorted out quickly, you guys!”

There is no reason to stay here any longer... but

I was planning on leaving after at least laying a foundation.

Sadohak looked towards the east with faint eyes and smiled.

***

Dan Woo-hyeon and Jang Sam-tae, who were traveling on horseback, were moving at high speed toward Gansu.

It felt like his back and buttocks were going to explode from the non-stop running, but Jang Sam-tae couldn’t bring himself to complain.

‘Boo... it’s uncomfortable.’

It was incredibly uncomfortable.

It was even better when I traveled with Majang River.

Even if he was strong, he was not as strong as Dan Woo-hyeon, and he knew that he could escape as long as he used his quick feet.

But the person with him now was none other than Dan Woo-hyeon.

Quick feet?

It doesn’t even work.

I felt like I would be devastated if I said even one wrong word, and because of that, I had no choice but to follow behind without even being able to complain even though I was in pain.

Jang Sam-tae was very uncomfortable with this situation.

So I ran and asked.

“Um... Lord Jang, where on earth are you going?”

I thought it would be nice to have it as close as possible. I had a strong desire to end this uncomfortable journey as quickly as possible.

Dan Woo-hyeon, who was a little ahead, glanced back.

He smiled strangely, as if he knew Jang Sam-tae’s feelings.

“Do you know where the largest sacred mountain in Jungwon is?”

“Isn’t it Jungwon Oak? Cheonsan is no less than that...”

Is Danwoohyeon looking for Yeongsan? Among the famous mountains in the central plains, the closest one was the volcano in Shaanxi.

‘How close is it?’

That moment when you think about that and make a big face.

“Such a place would be closer to a famous mountain than a sacred mountain. “It is not a sacred mountain simply because it has thick forests and good terrain.”

“Eh? Everyone knows it’s Yeongsan, but...?”

Jang Sam-tae looked at Dan Woo-hyeon with a strange gaze.

Jungwon Oak was a representative sacred mountain that everyone knew about. Numerous legends have been passed down since ancient times, and there were also rumors that spirit creatures live here and there.

But it’s not Yeongsan?

‘What are you talking about, man?’

Jang Sam-tae could not hide his doubts.

“The place called Jungwon Oak and Cheonsan Mountain are also places where spiritual energy gathers, so it is not strange if they are called Yeongsan. However, since the entire mountain is not surrounded by spiritual energy, it cannot be called a true spiritual mountain.”

“What kind of thing is that... Eup....”

He reacted nervously to the incomprehensible words, but when Dan Woo-hyeon’s harsh gaze caught his attention, he quickly covered his mouth.

“Hehe... Hehe...”

Jang Sam-tae sighed in relief and lowered his head.

I could still feel Dan Woo-hyeon’s harsh gaze.

“Anyway, the place we are going is that spiritual mountain.”

“...Where is that spirit mountain?”

That was the biggest problem.

I wish it was as close as possible, but why do I feel uneasy for some reason?

“It’s all about Changbai Mountain.”

“Hey-!”

As soon as he heard the word Changbai Mountain, Jang Sam-tae grabbed the reins and started running blindly toward the south.

“it’s crazy?! “How do you get there?” He ran quickly and ran away. It seemed like he intended to return to Honam immediately.

If I catch up with the carriage, I will be able to hold on to the hem of Somi’s skirt.

Are you alone with Dan Woo-hyeon in a place that doesn’t take a day or two, but takes several months?

That was the same as telling me to die.

I seemed to have forgotten about the pain in my back and buttocks and just ran on. It seemed like he was trying his best to get as far away from Dan Woohyun as possible.

At that moment, something strange flew towards the back of Jang Sam-tae’s head.

puck!

“Quite!”
