Episode 387Shadow of the Yin God (1)
The manâs complexion was pale.
He was not just sick, he was pale as if he were a corpse. It is a complexion that feels so foreign that anyone would feel uncomfortable.
He was tall and his body was thin. It had an impression similar to an old tree that had been covered in snow in the middle of winter.
But other than that, the impression was surprisingly ordinary.
People call the continent Jungwon, but countless ethnic groups also live in this land.
Surprisingly, the manâs face had an appearance similar to that seen on the faces of any ethnic group. Although he didnât look like a westerner, he looked like someone Iâd seen once while walking down the street.
The top was taken off, but the bottoms were decorated with colorful silk. She wore a golden necklace studded with unknown gems and rings on all ten fingers. Of course, each ring was studded with precious stones.
Contrary to the impression, the clothes and accessories were nothing short of extravagant.
A grotesquely pale skin color, an extremely ordinary appearance, and clothes and accessories decorated to the point of burdensomeness.
That strange combination fit strangely with the manâs mysterious prayer. It would be difficult to find people like this anywhere in the world.
The man who had been staring out the window for a long time opened his mouth.
âHave you caught the owner of the Double Sword Gate yet?â
It was a nice voice to listen to.
In response to the manâs question, the young man who appeared to be no older than twenty bowed his head.
âWe are tracking. However, since their location has been captured, I believe we will be able to kill them before the end of the day.â
âWell, you had a hard time.â
The man turned around.
Chiri ririn.
The gold thread attached to the bottom and the jewels connected to the gold thread made a clear sound as they clashed.
âOnce the Twin Gates are cleared, will only the Silver family remain?â
âThatâs right.â
The man, Hong Guan, smiled faintly.
Although he had an extremely ordinary appearance, his complexion was pale, so even his small smile had an eerie feel to it.
âOnce we get that far, the rest will fall on its own. âItâs been a lot of hard work.â
âno. âThe night master had a harder time.â
Yazoo.
Yaju means the lord of the night. In the world of assassins, it is considered a tribute to the best assassin.
Moorimâs strongest spray. The worst god of death in the world, whose name has never been engraved on the sunny land of the Murimsa Temple, but whose existence only a few tycoons of the underworld know about.
For generations, the title given to the Yin God was Yaju.
Cheer ring! Cheer ring!
Hong Gwan walked briskly to the chair and sat down, resting his chin on his chin.
âIâve only seen you for three months, but your skills have improved even more.â
âthank you.â
âThe balance between the negative cold white type and the negative hot red type is well maintained. Now, if you combine the two martial arts into one and reach the Yin Realm, it will be difficult for even a Jangmun of the Nine Sects to avoid your magical power.â
The young man lowered his head without saying a word.
Hong Guanâs smile deepened.
âAre you dissatisfied?â
ââ¦no.â
âI donât know how you feel. However, your achievements are ten years faster than mine, your teacher. âConsidering that I was also called a rare genius in the past, you can be said to be the greatest talent in the history of music.â
ââ¦.â
âSo, donât rush into it and solve it slowly, one by one. Just before ascending to the Yinjegyeong, this is the time when the energy of fire and anger fluctuates the most. âIf you make a mistake, you will lose everything you have gained.â
âIâll keep that in mind.â
âOkay, thatâs it.â
The voice was very warm. Are the tycoons who are said to be the pinnacle of the assassination world still people?
However, contrary to his voice, Hong Guanâs eyes as he looked at the young man were extremely indifferent. It was extremely stiff, as if I was looking at an object rather than a person.
âOnce you catch the Double Blade Moonjutsu, come back and focus on your training. âItâs been a lot of hard work.â
âYes, Master.â
âJust leave now and try.â
âyes.â
The young man bowed and left the room.
ââ¦Hmm.â
Hong Guan, who was leaning on a chair in a roomy posture, looked up at the ceiling.
âI remember it too.â
Hong Guan knew. That his great disciple had broken the secret art of soul control that he himself had casted.
There are many secret techniques in Seophonsul. There are simple ways to turn a person into an idiot or drive him crazy, but advanced soul magic allows the caster to select and remove only the memories he or she wants.
This was exactly the magic that Hong Guan used on his disciple.
âHe was truly a sought-after talent.â
He was the one who killed the great discipleâs family.
Originally, Hong Guan also tried to kill the great disciple. However, when he realized that the great discipleâs strength and talent were greater than anything he had ever seen before, he kidnapped him and used a magic spell to make him his disciple.
In the future, the plan was to raise him as the god of death in the central plains and make him one of the four kings of the evil sect.
âWell, how many things in this world can happen the way you want? âTsk, he probably didnât have any connection with adultery.â
Hong Guan shook his head and quenched his appetite.
It was then.
ââ¦â
Hong Guanâs eyes suddenly became sharp.
âShow yourself.â
ââ¦.â
âDo you want to play ghost? In front of none other than me?â
ââ¦Hmm.â
Where on earth did it come from?
A woman appeared from the deep shadows behind Hong Guan.
Unlike Hong Guanâs pale skin, she was an impressive beauty with moderately tanned skin. Although he was tall like Hong Guan, his body was curvy and his outfit was extremely simple.
Hong Guan said without even looking back.
âYou picked up a bad habit without me even seeing you.â
âThatâs what Iâm going to say.â
Flap!
A woman went to the other side of the Hong Pavilion, her clothes flapping, and sat down with her legs crossed.
âIt seems like the skills are the same, but there was a moment of hesitation. Do you think the water in Jungwon is good? âItâs not as sharp as it used to be.â
âDo you want to come across the road thousands of miles and talk nonsense like that?â
âgibberish? If you think what I say is nonsense, you have become very dull. âYou werenât like that before.â
The woman laughed as if it was fun.
It didnât seem particularly intentional, but the act of gently ruffling her hair with her long fingers looked very seductive.
âThese bastards are praising you for being evil and evil, so have you forgotten your fundamentals?â
Life shined in the eyes of Hong Guan, or Yayuljeok.
âYouâd better be careful what you say, Firefighter.â
âIâm glad. âI didnât forget my name.â
Firefighter looked around the room.
âWow, itâs so fancy, isnât it? âHe was said to have a power comparable to that of a continental emperor, and his room was entirely decorated with gold.â
ââ¦.â
âBut you know, right? âThe gold in this room, the jewels you wear, the clothes, and even your life belong to fornication.â
The corner of Yayuljeokâs mouth rose.
âYou didnât come that far because you wanted to check your faith, right?â SÑarch* The NôvelFire.nÑt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
âOf course it is. But it is also an equally important issue. You canât get caught up in the junk from the continent and forget about our school, right? âNo one has been stuck on the continent for as long as you.â
âThis is an order from above. âNo matter how much you are considered to be one of the next Four Kings, are you serious enough to ignore the instructions given to you by the Great Teaching Hall?â
Firefighterâs eyes became sharp.
Daegyojeon was a place where only the top leaders of Saeumgyo could enter.
The orders given there were no different from Godâs orders. And Godâs command was also the religious leaderâs command.
In other words, Yayuljeok asked Firefighter whether you were great enough to interfere with the leaderâs orders.
This is an issue that could result in immediate execution for treason if you make a mistake.
Firefighter spoke in a calm voice.
âLet me explain why I came here.â
âYouâre not answering. Iâll ask again. âI asked whether you were so great that you could even overcome the orders given in the Great Bridge Battle.â
âThings are going a bit strangely.â
âIf you donât answer, I will report you to the superiors for treason.â
âThe Shinhwa Church suffered.â
ââ¦?!â
Yayuljeokâs face hardened.
ââ¦what?â
âThe adherents of the Shinhwa religion who dominated the military government of Henam Province were swept away by the masters of the Murim League. Although the Shinhwa Church did not properly announce it, it appears that at least five military officers were killed. âIâm guessing that there are at least two high-ranking generals among them.â
ââ¦!!â
Yayuljeokâs face hardened even more.
The eighteen warlords of the Shinhwa Church were truly formidable in martial arts. To put it bluntly, they were strong men who were no less powerful than the generals of Saeumgyo, and in particular, the first general was a true expert who was on the verge of becoming a half-divine apostle.
ââ¦I heard that the first general, Beonjak, personally participated in the infiltration of Hanam as the leader?â
âthatâs right.â
âThatâs right? Did you hear me correctly? I said it was a success. âIt means that even if you and I were together, it was difficult to discuss victory or defeat, and he was with us as the leader.â
âknow.â
âYou got hit at the same time?â
âBunjak survived. âThe officers under his command are dead.â
âIsnât that what you mean? Burning is strong. There are no major shortcomings in command ability either. But how could those Murimmen be defeated by those bastards?â
âI canât know about that because the Shinhwa Church is keeping quiet. âThe important thing is that among the armed forces, only Burnjak survived.â
ââ¦!â
âBut there is something strange.â
âSomething strange?â
âThe Shinhwa Church did not provide all the information⦠but they did not seem to think it was a big problem.â
âwhat?â
ââ¦.â
âThey said at least five of the eighteen generals were killed. But itâs not a big problem?â
âAt least thatâs what it looks like on the outside. Itâs not just me. âMy master said he felt that way too.â
Yayuljeok could not understand at all.
âWhat on earth is this?â
Firefighter said.
âitâs okay. The important thing is not the mythological religion. âItâs us.â
ââ¦.â
âRecently, you have been causing divisions among the Baekdo factions in the southern part of here, reducing the power of the political factions, right?â
âBecause it was an order from above.â
âokay. âThe problem is how the Murim Alliance, who killed the Shinhwa religionâs warlords, will view this situation.â
ââ¦!!â
âIt may have been after Shinhwaism was fully established in Hanam, but it is dangerous now. The Murim Alliance will dispatch an informant. âIn the worst case, we might send someone with real talent.â
âHeâs a talented person.â
âah! âThe Shinhwa Church told me this.â
Tension appeared on Firefighterâs face.
âAmong those who fought with the warlords, there was no one strong in Seongcheon.â
Yayuljeok was greatly surprised.
He thought that the strong men of Seongcheon were unconditionally involved in the death of the military commanders. It had to be that way. If he wasnât that strong, he wouldnât have been able to defeat the military officers commanded by Beonjak.
But itâs not?
âThatâs why itâs more dangerous. Because he was defeated even though he was not a Seongcheon-level strongman. That meansâ¦â
âDoes that mean they know a lot about us?â
âThatâs how the higher-ups see it.â
ââ¦.â
Firefighter, who was silently watching the Yayul enemy with wide eyes, relaxed his posture.
âI will stay here for about three months. Because the Murim Leagueâs beggars might smell it and come. âIf a master who is hard to ignore comes along, you might not be enough at that time, right?â
Yayuljeok could not firmly deny those words. The eighteen warlords would have suffered the same way.
However, as the eumsin and yaju of the central plains, he was able to say this.
âdo not worry.â
Tdu-duk-duk!
All ten rings were broken off by a tightly clenched fist.
âBecause my rats are taking over the entire South.â
