Episode 650. A story in the reign (25)Ten years later.
âwho?â
âHundred-eight pen names.â
Although he was now well over fifty, Gogu still had the appearance of someone in his forties.
Gogu tilted his head.
âIf itâs Baek8ho, is it the one who was caught 10 days ago?â
âYes thatâs right.â
There was a look of bewilderment on the face of the head of the criminal court. Although he tried not to show it outwardly, he was now able to understand his successorâs mood just by looking at his eyes.
Gogu cleared his throat.
âElder. âI guess Iâll have to come back for a while.â
Mudam burst out laughing. His face, completely white from his hair to his beard, was still hard, but contained the wisdom and kindness that comes with time.
âSure. âI have time to spare, so please take your time and come back from work.â
âAll right. ah! By the way, was Mr. Gwangmazonâs retirement ceremony the day after tomorrow?â
âThatâs right.â
âHehe, I guess I should at least prepare a gift.â
âI wonât ask for a gift. Donât forget tonightâs lecture before giving Gwangmazon senior a gift. âThe guards of the Protectorate are going crazy to listen to your lecture.â
âAll right. then.â
Gogu left the room.
As soon as he left the room, his expression changed. The difference between the facial expressions shown in private and public settings was enormous.
âBut why 108? âWasnât he going to be executed in three days?â
âOf course it is, butâ¦.â
The head of the criminal code hesitated for a moment and then sighed.
âAs you know, there is no sane person among those imprisoned in the penal court.â
âI know it painfully well.â
âBut there was something different about him.â
âYou mean different? what?â
âItâs just a hunch, but⦠he said I needed to see the leader in person, and there seemed to be something in those eyes.â
Gogu laughed bitterly.
âIs there anyone who doesnât have a story? However, if you say so, it certainly seems different no matter what.â
âIâm sorry.â
âWell, he was the first assassin to infiltrate with the intention of taking the cult leaderâs life, so something must be different.â
The incident occurred ten days ago.
At the time, the Heavenly Demon Church was a sanctuary that was difficult for anyone in the world to surpass. After the empire directly made Shinism the state religion and announced it as the last power of the empire, everyone in the world respected and feared Heavenly Demon Religion as much as the imperial palace.
In the first place, there was no one who did not know the inaction of Seoryang, the absolute demon of the time. The invincible martial arts skills he showed in the midfield in the past were not something that should be taken lightly just because generations have changed.
However, this generation was the first time that Cheonma Shingyo, which was just a branch of the martial arts group, gained a dignity and legitimacy comparable to the imperial palace.
There were also words like this in the world.
âThere is an emperor under the sky, and the heavenly devil guards the sky.â
âThe emperor dies, but the Heavenly Demon never dies.â
âIf civil unrest breaks out in various places, the imperial palace could be in jeopardy. However, the Heavenly Demon Church will become stronger.â
Although what was said was different, they all assumed the Heavenly Demon to be an absolute being.
Of course, there could not have been an assassination attempt. There have been several assassination attempts against the emperor, but there has never been an assassination attempt against the religious leader.
The ten-year myth was broken 10 days ago. An assassin infiltrated Shingyo to assassinate Cheonma.
And as everyone knows, of course the assassination attempt failed.
âHeâs definitely not an ordinary guy. âEven if you exclude the religious leader, the boundaries of this new religion are more impenetrable than those of the previous religious leaders, and they managed to break through it and reach the inner city.â
âThatâs right. âI think his skills are comparable to the murder king who made the world nervous twenty years ago.â
âHas there been an answer from Musaeksa Temple?â
âI donât know. âThey said they investigated this and that, but they couldnât find out where the assassin came from.â
âHmm.â
Is this a way of life that a colorless person does not know?
âLetâs meet first.â
âAll right.â
Clap!
The door to the prison opened and Gogu entered.
âhmm.â
Gogu looked at Baekpalho, the criminal.
Flash! Flash!
Even though his dantian was broken and his internal energy was lost, Baekpalhoâs eyes were just as ghastly.
At least in terms of distribution, he was surprisingly great. Gogu could sense unbreakable strength, a strong survival instinct, and a strong sense of purpose in his eyes.
âIs it number 108?â
âwho are you?â
He may not have been able to eat properly for 10 days, but his voice was full of strength.
Gogu nodded.
âI am called Gogu. He is the former head of the Criminal Law Party and an advisor to the Guardian Court of his time. âItâs torture, but you can just think of it as a devil lounging around without doing anything.â
Baekpalho quietly looked up at Gogu.
Gogu slowly squatted down in front of him.
âYou said you wanted to meet the leader?â
âexactly.â
Heâs a strange guy.
He was clearly a strong man, but when I listened to his tone, it seemed like he was not completely ignorant of manners. At the same time, he was showing a truly dignified appearance, and his voice reminded me of a calm civil servant rather than an assassin.
âWhat are you going to do when you see the leader? âYouâre not trying to ask me not to kill you, right?â
âno. âHe was prepared to die from the moment he attempted assassination in the first place.â
It wasnât a lie. Gogu could read the instinctive fear and detachment of someone who had accepted death on Baekpalhoâs face.
A smile appeared on Goguâs face.
âI understand why the head of the family said that.â
The more you look at him, the more he seems different.
Excellent ability was second. As the head of the family said, this guy had an unknown story. Furthermore, he was also a guy with a strange charm that somehow drew people to him.
âI have something else to say to the leader⦠I hope you havenât forgotten your own situation, right? âFrom our schoolâs perspective, you are the equivalent of a high treason criminal.â
âI know.â
âIf you have anything to say to the leader, say it to me now. âIâll tell you as it is.â
âYou canât do that.â
âWhy?â
âI want to meet the leader in person and make a decision. âHe was caught like this before, but this assassination was only intended to kill him if he was someone who deserved to die. If not, he was willing to give up his life quietly.â
Itâs not a cult leader, itâs a cult leader.
Goguâs face showed interest.
âIn other words, what you say will inevitably change depending on how the leader reacts.â
âexactly.â
Gogu got up from his seat.
âHey, head of the family.â
âYes, senior.â
âJust kill this guy.â
The head of the criminal courtâs eyes sparkled.
Baekpalho also looked embarrassed, but he didnât seem that surprised either. It seemed like this reaction was expected.
Gogu said coldly.
âYou arrogant bastard! How dare such a superficial piece of trash want to see the religious leader? âI thought there was something to it because he had a lot of momentum, but in the end, I was just an idiot caught up in an illusion.â
Baekpalhoâs eyes wavered.
Gogu turned around.
âKnow before you die. Not only the leader, but no one at the school negotiates. âI hope youâll be especially thankful that you said a few words to the guy who tried to kill our schoolâs god.â
ââ¦.â
âIf the religious leader had not ordered me to eliminate the crime of association, I would have tortured you, found all your family and relatives, and destroyed your entire clan.â
Baekpalho bit his lip.
âPlease. âPlease let me see the leader.â
Gogu completely ignored his words.
âHead of the family. If you have time this evening, come to the defense court. âLetâs have a meal after the lecture.â
âAll right.â
Baekpalho shouted again.
âPlease! Iâm not going to die anyway! âI definitely have a reason to see the leader!â
It was then.
chuck.
Gogu stopped walking.
He sighed softly.
ââ¦Are you merciful or curious?â
The head of the criminal code tilted his head.
âWhat do you mean?â
Gogu turned around again.
He said with a shocked face.
âThe leader told me to bring him.â
âyes?!â
âYou just gave me the whole sound.â
There was a look of wonder on the face of the head of the criminal court. On the other hand, a look of disbelief was evident on Baekpalhoâs face.
How far is it from here to the Demon God Palace? Did you hear the entire conversation that took place here? Even if you heard it, is it possible to send an electric sound this far away?
This was not a human feat.
âHead of the family. âPlease release Baek8ho.â
Gogu whetted his appetite.
âTransfer that guy to Panmajeong.â
thud!
Baekpalho frowned without realizing it.
The weight of the chains that bound both arms and ankles was considerable. Moreover, after not being able to drink a single sip of water for several days, my legs felt weak even with a light push.
âGo in.â
Gogu pointed to the door with his hand.
âBeyond this door is the religious leader.â
Baekpalhoâs eyes wavered. Because I never thought I would really meet the Heavenly Demon.
Chiri ririn.
The sound of the chains shaking hurt my ears.
Baek8ho took a deep breath and opened the door.
Shake! Whoa!
A cool breeze blew through the open door.
Baekpalho opened the door and went inside.
ââ¦!!â
He opened his mouth without realizing it.
âThis canât be happening.â
An open fairyland was revealed in all directions.
The world where Gihwayocho was in full bloom did not look like King Inseâs. No, I had never heard of a place like this in Hundred Thousand Mountains.
I couldnât do that in the first place. Considering the climate of Guangdong Province, such a cool breeze could not have been blowing at this time of year.
Shake!
Baekpal-ho, startled by the sound of the door closing, turned around.
âomg!â
Not only the door but also the entire wall disappeared.
A large lake appeared on the other side. Even after washing his eyes and looking for the building he entered, he couldnât see it.
âWhat on earth is this?!â
It was then.
Hahaha!
âAhh!â
A beautiful yet somehow frivolous voice rang out.
Baekpalho turned his head to where the sound was heard.
âperson?!â
There were two people standing where he looked.
Among them, the one that stood out the most was a shirtless man of seven feet tall. The upper body muscles, trained to the limit, looked strong and beautiful enough to make viewers lose their senses.
And in front of him, a woman who looked like she was a little over the age of retirement was grumbling and banging her butt.
âChet, I guess it doesnât work for my brother.â
âHey. Even if the whole world attacked me, I doubt that you would take even one of my arms. Did you really think you would be able to get even a scratch on this executionerâs body?â
âStill. âI thought I could show you something that worked.â
âI made a good move.â
âreally?â
âItâs true. It has increased tremendously. âI donât know how long it will take, but I think we will be able to break through the wall of extreme demons in the near future.â
There was a bright smile on the womanâs face.
âReally? âReally?â
âI donât make empty remarks about things like this.â
âEhehehe!â
Her appearance is beyond beautiful, but her smile is strangely innocent yet cute.
âNow wake up. âA guest has arrived.â
âOh, is that so?â
The man took the womanâs hand and helped her up.
âuh? But can I stay too?â
âWho told you to get out? âIf youâre bored, go swimming in the lake over there.â
âitâs hard.â
âPeople have definitely changed. âIf it were like old times, I would have jumped in as soon as he finished speaking.â
âI also have a big head.â
âI miss the innocent Yeomin of the past.â
âKukuku Iâm not a child anymore.â
âOkay, donât fall this time. âThe position of Commander of the Cheonma Grand Army is not one that can be achieved just by being strong in martial arts.â
âI know. Iâm going to do my best on this promotion test. The youngest commander of the Cheonma Grand Army! âI havenât given up yet!â
âYes, I believe you will do well.â
Hwaaaaaaa!
Suddenly, a sharp wind blew, and before I knew it, the man was wearing a dragon robe.
Baekpalho looked at the man blankly.
Even though there was such a beautiful woman, I couldnât take my eyes off the man.
The man said as he climbed into the ornate pavilion.
âDid you say number 108? âPlease come up.â
Baekpal-ho, who was shocked, headed towards the pavilion as if he was fascinated.
Squeak. Squeak.
The sight of the man seen step by step as he climbed the pavilion was surprisingly large.
The body is a body, but the presence itself is on a different level. It wasnât that the prayer was shocking or that the energy wave was strong, but that Inse had a presence that didnât seem human at all.
ââ¦Unbelievable.â
Baekpalho could not come to his senses.
âAm I trying to assassinate someone like this?â
Just looking at it was enough to make my eyes turn dark. The spirit of heaven, which had ascended to the realm of half-goodness rather than true energy or prayer, was pressing down on itself.
Baekpalho was sure. If he had entered the Demon God Palace and faced Iza, he would have immediately lost consciousness and collapsed.
Even if you were a master of the flower world, one look from this man would make you go numb and make you fall to your knees. It was giving off a presence of a different dimension to the point where I felt that kind of confidence.
âHoo.â
The man who was filling his glass, leaning languidly with his arms on the railing of the pavilion, smiled.
âHe really is quite a strong guy. Itâs been a while since Iâve seen those eyes.â
ââ¦!â S~eaÊá´h the NôvelFire.nÑt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
âWhat is your name?â
Baekpalho opened his mouth without realizing it.
âMy name is Cheon Woo-young.â
âThatâs a good name.â
The man smiled.
âI am the Heavenly Demon.â
ââ¦!!â
âDo you know how to drink?â
