Chapter 35

Episode 35

Dokgo Woojin moved his residence after the last Cheoneumji kidnapping incident.

To a private house near Cheongseongsan Mountain.

This was because they were concerned that the demonic cult might once again threaten the safety of their family.

‘That’s what I’m worried about.’

Dok-go-seong is a transacute retardant.

And Cheonakgun, the first disciple of the Demonic Cult Master, learned the art of chanting.

As long as Cheonakgun did not collapse from the poisonous fire, Dokgoseong had no choice but to continue to face threats to his life.

That is why Dokgo Woojin evacuated his family to Mt. Cheongseong.

From what I heard, it seemed like the Taoist monk from Cheongseong, whose life had been saved by him, had helped him in many ways.

‘Well, there’s no place as safe as here.’

There is a Qingcheng sect on Mount Qingcheng.

No matter how advanced the Demon Cult was, they couldn’t run around in the territory of the Blue Star Sect.

“Don’t lose your posture.”

“yes.”

“Your voice is small!”

“yes!”

A powerful cheer erupted.

Recently, Dokgo Woojin began teaching martial arts to his son.

The goal was to build strength so that one could protect one’s body in times of emergency.

As I was sitting on the floor watching Dok Go-seong practice, I remembered a conversation I had with Dok Go Woo-jin not long ago.

[Did you eventually decide to teach martial arts?]

[Yes.]

[You made a difficult decision.]

[I had thought before that martial arts might help me overcome my innate constitution. But I didn’t want to drag my child into the martial arts world, so I didn’t teach him.]

[.......]

[Now that I think about it, maybe it was just my greed.]

“Heo-eok! “Huh!”

It looks precarious, as if it will collapse at any moment.

Dok Go-seong, who was naturally weak, could not easily adapt to the arduous training.

Even with simple basic training, he seemed easily tired and tired.

“How about doing something like that? “I think the meal preparations are almost done.”

“I haven’t reached my goal yet.”

“You are also strict with your children.”

“If I had thought of him as my child, I would not have decided to teach him myself.”

“.......”

I had no intention of discussing the father-son issue any further.

I got up from my seat and entered the house.

“It was really dark back then. “I thought there might be a problem with my child’s health...”

“That’s what happened.”

A quiet voice pierced my ears.

Seo Moon-hye and Cheon Ga-ryeong were preparing a meal together and having a conversation.

“Who would have known that the demonic cultists kidnapped my son? “If Sowoon hadn’t helped me at that time...”

Seo Moon-hye looked extremely excited.

It seemed like they were happy to see a customer who had been visiting for a long time.

He didn’t know why he had so much to say, but he didn’t stop talking even for a moment while busily serving food.

I could see how hungry she was for people.

“What about the Chamberlain?”

“He is still watching Master’s training.”

“It would be good to take it easy so as not to hurt your body.”

“Don’t worry, you will be able to control it well.”

“okay.”

“Isn’t life inconvenient on Mount Qingcheng?”

“Why would I be uncomfortable? “I’m just sorry that you’re having a hard time.”

“It’s late, but thank you for inviting me.”

“I haven’t prepared anything, but please enjoy it and leave.”

He was not emotional enough to shed tears of sadness in sympathy for Dokgo Woojin’s situation, nor was he passionate enough to spew out profanity while criticizing Cheonakgun’s evil deeds.

But for some reason, as I looked at Dokgo Woojin’s weak appearance, something bubbled up inside me.

‘frustrated.’

What should I do to relieve this uncomfortable feeling?

What can I do to relieve the pain in my heart?

After a short period of thought, I came to a conclusion.

The culprit behind everything was Cheonakgun.

If it weren’t for Cheonakgun, there would be no reason for Dokgo Woojin to suffer like that.

‘Kill Cheonakgun.’

After organizing my thoughts, I felt much more at ease.

I pretended to have a bright expression and spoke to Dokgo Woojin.

“Now that I think about it, I haven’t given you a housewarming gift yet. “I will prepare it and give it to you soon.”

“......?”

Dokgo Woojin looked back at me with narrowed eyes.

His face seemed to say, “What kind of idiot are you talking about?”

This time, I was wondering if there was some kind of plan.

How long has it been since you moved and now you’re giving me a housewarming gift?

I continued, stretched, and added a few words.

“I assure you, you will like it.”

* * *

Cheon Ga-ryeong and I decided to stay the night at Dokgo Woojin’s house and return to Hwangryongmugwan early in the morning.

Cheon Ga-ryeong, Seo Mun-hye, and I ended up sharing a room with Dok-go and his son.

As I was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, I sent an electric sound to the next room where I could sense Cheon Ga-ryeong’s presence.

-There is something I would like to ask you.

-ask? Do you want to borrow my power or Hao Wen’s power?

-I would like to borrow Hao Wen’s power.

-What is the content of the request?

– Please convey my message to Danju of Huayang Trading Company, headquartered in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province.

-Hwayang Sangdan? Are you talking about an emerging top company that has been gaining ground at a frightening pace recently?

-yes. We will pay with information.

-I’ll listen to it first.

-The only son of Hwayang Sangdanju fell into mental illness while practicing martial arts.

-no way.

-The source of martial arts is none other than the Demonic Cult.

-The person who wrote the military officialdom was the Maqiao governor of the time?

-That’s right.

-Then what you want to convey to the owner of the Hwayang Sangdan is...

-If you want to save your son, please tell him to come see me. Of course, I also brought military officialdom with me.

-It seems like all you have to do is tell the story and the compensation is excessive? I can grant that kind of request without having to pay extra. First of all, both Hao Mun and I are in debt to you.

-In that sense, I would like to ask you a few more favors.

-That’s right.

Hwayang Sangdan.

It was a large merchant that would occupy the top spot among the top ten merchants in the near future.

In his previous life, the Demonic Cultist healed the son of the Venerable Merchant who was suffering from a mental illness and recruited the Hwayang Vendor as an ally.

Of course, they received enormous amounts of goods through military funds.

‘It’s a bit of a waste, though.’

There was no need to share the benefits of being indebted to the Huayang merchant with Hao Wen.

However, it was a waste of time to go to Zhejiang in person and negotiate.

I doubted whether a big man of his size would even willingly meet me.

Above all, I had to make him come to me in order to secure the promised gift.

‘If it’s too late, you’ll miss the right time. Anyway, I have to continue my relationship with Hao Wen. You can think of it as paying the request fee in advance.’

The name of the martial arts practiced by the son of the head of Hwayang Sangdan is Honghwasingong (紅火神功).

It was a prayer technique based on positive energy.

It wasn’t an extreme type of martial arts like what Cheonakgun learned, but it was good because of it.

A highly biased martial arts practice was bound to ultimately destroy the practitioner.

Isn’t it impossible to pass on such harmful martial arts to others?

‘Honghwa New Technique will be a great help in overcoming the Tianum Delay.’
