Chapter 345

Episode 345

“Meet the Taesang Family Lord.”

“Nice to meet you.”

Paenga, my clothes room.

I politely bowed to the old man sitting at the head of the bed.

Taowang (King of Swords), an absolute master who holds the first seat of the Ten Heavenly Emperors.

“The rumors were true. “They say I have reached the level of absolute perfection.”

His grizzled hair was neatly combed and his beard was neatly trimmed.

A face that looks strangely calm despite being covered in wrinkles and scars.

While King Gwon exuded violent spirit, King Tao showed restrained strength.

“I heard the story from the head of the family. He said he wanted to see me...”

“There is nothing more enjoyable than meeting an extraordinary junior. “What’s more, if the target is a person who has achieved unprecedented achievements and accomplishments in Moorim’s history.”

“It would be burdensome if you let me float like that.”

“It’s a shame. “As long as you’re not injured, I’m asking for a fight.”

It wasn’t just empty words, it was a look of genuine regret.

A strange heat flashed through the eyes that were looking at me.

For some reason, my back felt cold.

I could see that Pangaju’s statement that it was difficult to tear it down was not an exaggeration.

‘You’re welcome.’

King Do was currently resting in his hospital bed.

On the battlefield where he rushed to save King Jie, who was in danger of death, he engaged in a brief battle with Lord Ma, and as a result, he seemed to have suffered quite a few internal injuries.

‘I never thought the day would come when the leader of the cult would be of help to me as I live.’

It would have been quite difficult if he had been involved in a secret affair with the King of Dao.

When I crossed the front gate of Paengga, I remembered what the gasols said to me.

[If Lord Taesang and the Dragon King fight, who will win?]

It was difficult whether I won or lost.

In the former case, it could have brought down the prestige of the Hebei Paeng family, and in the latter case, I just didn’t like it.

‘I’m not the type of person to be particularly obsessed with winning or losing.’

If I were to lose in a fight, I could have even gotten into a fight with my teacher and been devalued.

In the first place, the King of Dao was not an easy opponent to create a picture of a natural defeat.

If you showed yourself struggling on purpose, they would quickly notice and get angry.

Are you insulting me?

The situation was different from when they fell for King Kwon’s provocation and engaged in a fight.

At that time, there were conditions for winning and losing, and since the level difference was clear, even if I won, I could boost my opponent’s prestige.

‘The situation is different now that I have become an expert on the same level as the King of Dao. The face of the losing side is bound to be damaged.’

Above all, if absolute experts decided to fight each other, there was a high possibility that one of them would be seriously injured.

That situation had to be avoided.

“How are you feeling?”

“It’s a lot better. “That friend, Hyuk Ryeon-wook, said that if I just rectify for about 15 more days, I will be completely cured.”

“Fortunately, the.”

“If it’s okay, can you wait 15 days?”

“sorry. “Because I am busy with both public and private affairs, I cannot stay in the house for a long time.”

I felt like I had to quickly take care of my faith and leave Sega.

Are you saying I’m crazy enough to stay there for 15 days and wait for the King of Dao to recover?

“Then there is nothing we can do. “I have no choice but to promise what happens next.”

I hope you don’t make any promises.

Why is it that a man who is old enough to not be able to engage in a sword fight with late Ji-soo?

Just stare at my face quietly for a while.

The King of Dao asked as if throwing a question.

“What was it like dealing with you?”

“yes?”

“I’m talking about the Demon Cult leader.”

“It was strong. “More than anyone I’ve ever met.”

“It’s a simpler reaction than I expected.”

He is an absolute master of the Demonic Cult whose name is currently unknown in the Baekdo martial arts world.

King Cheoljong, the Baek-faced Death God.

A strong man who is a henchman of the Demonic Cult and is said to be the best of the eight great Demon Lords.

I also didn’t know much about King Cheoljong.

Basically, he had no subordinates and was a person who only carried out the orders of the Demon Cult leader.

He was skilled in the art of disguise, so no one knew his true appearance, and the type of martial arts he had mastered was also a mystery.

However, I remembered hearing from Lord Ma that he was skilled in handling all kinds of weapons.

Sweet.

Let me be lost in thought for a while.

I turned my head when I felt a presence behind me.

When he opened the door and made eye contact with the old man who entered the room, the king frowned slightly.

Hyeok Ryeon-wook, an old man living and dying, said as he put the bowl in his hand down on the table.

“It’s time to take your medicine.”

“I thought you said you wouldn’t eat any more?”

“It is the doctor who decides when to stop taking medication. “Not the patient.”

“Did you put some licorice in it?”

“I didn’t put it in.”

“Damn it.”

“How many times have I told you that if you put it in, the effectiveness of the medicine will decrease? Stop whining like a child and drink it quickly. “Aren’t you embarrassed in front of your distant junior?”

“Is there anything to be embarrassed about? Originally, human beings become simpler as they age. “It becomes clear what I like and what I don’t like.”

Watching the two people chatting trivially gave me a strange feeling.

It was a moment when I realized that no matter how good or bad it is, we are ultimately the same person.

“Big.”

After emptying the bowl in one go, King Tao’s face distorted horribly.

The calm atmosphere from just a moment ago had suddenly disappeared.

Shinui, who took the empty bowl, looked back at me and said.

“You come with me.”

“yes?”

“I have some business to attend to, so please follow me. If we stayed anyway, wouldn’t there be nothing more to talk about? “At best, they’ll just talk about me behind my back.”

King Dao and I looked at each other at the same time and looked surprised.

I bet he had the same thoughts as me.

‘He’s a ghost-like old man. ‘How did you know that?’

* * *

“her.”

The head of the Geumjeong family, Sogaju, let out a laugh.

After receiving the letter with Ma Cyoju’s seal, he immediately packed his bags and came to Shaanxi.

‘I wonder why they even invited the martial arts family from a foreign country.’

A truly unexpected sight unfolded before my eyes.

A huge building that daunts the viewer.

I had no idea when a castle of this size was built.

“Why are you looking so blankly?”

“Oh no.”

“Follow me. “I will assign you accommodation for a while.”

“yes.”

Sogaju swallowed his saliva and followed the leader into the castle.

From now on, I had to be careful about my every move and word.

This is a place full of demonic cultists who can take their lives whenever they want.

From there, about a year passed.

“Whoa.”

Sogaju, who unpacked her belongings at her lodgings, let out a long sigh.

The view outside the window was literally nothing like hell.

Ugly-looking demons were wandering everywhere.

He muttered as if he was making a promise in his heart.

‘Even if I was given permission to move around freely, I would never go out and look around.’
