Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return - Chapter 556

< Return of the God of War Side Story Episode 56 >

Geum Geum-ran, the priestess of the Cheonji Church, is just an orphan child who was raised by the cult leader Yuk Cheol-wan when she was young.

There is one reason why Yuk Cheol-wan brought her as an orphan.

Her appearance was neat and she would have been quite beautiful if she had grown up, and since her father was from the West, she had features that were completely different from those of other Central Plains people.

By dressing their bodies in all kinds of accessories, making their faces a little whiter with fine powder, and wearing expensive silk clothes, they have acquired a sacredness that no one can match.

Lastly, the head of the cult, Yuk Cheol-wan, secretly enlisted his subordinates to carry out the work, and she, as a priestess, predicted the event to numerous people or believers, thus completing the priestess of Cheonjigyo.

She also had one concern: Geum Geum-ran was not the child of the past who did what Yuk Cheol-wan told her to do and did not do what he told her not to do.

She already has a huge head, and there are countless people around her who believe in her and follow her. It cannot be said that she had half of the influence of the religion, but since three out of ten people gathered around her, she had no choice but to naturally open her eyes to power and strength.

Geum Geum-ran was thinking that one thing was missing in order to take away what Yuk Cheol-wan had.

Unlike religious leaders who have overwhelming power, spiritual power is invisible and not easily revealed. What if even that spiritual force doesn’t exist?

It has to be created.

There is also a reason why a dog that is not funny is dressed up as a tiger and tricked into thinking it is a spirit creature.

However, if you want to surpass the real Yukcheolwan, you must obtain a real spirit creature with equal or greater power.

Only then will all believers follow her.

“Then you really saw that woman?”

“Of course. “Because the person who made the guess would not have sent a false letter to the religious leader.”

Chu Jakhan is a person who stands on the side of the religious leader.

Just looking at the martial arts he learned, it appears that he was given it by the religious leader. Since there is no way such a person would make a false report, there will be no change in the fact that there is a real white tiger or an equivalent spiritual entity.

Didn’t I already say it myself?

“Moreover, he spoke clearly. They say they have a white tiger and a pure white cat….”

“Sakwol cat….”

“Yes, I’m sure.”

It is clear that the white tiger is a legendary spirit that is difficult to see with the human eye, but the same goes for Sakwolmyo.

It can only be seen on days when a certain moon rises, and even if seen, it cannot be caught, and it is only known that it never follows people and lives a noble life.

So this too is a legend.

If it is accurate that the girl possesses both spiritual entities at the same time, it would be like Geum Geum-ran gaining great power to surpass the cult leader in an instant.

This means that it is not simply a religion of heaven and earth that is oppressed by force, but is more complete religiously.

“But the problem is… he’s a huge expert.”

However, this cannot be said to be a good situation.

The man who was next to the woman.

This is a person who can suffocate people even with the look in his eyes.

He may be an expert who has reached an unexpected level, as the simple act of putting down an iron coin can cause the table to crack.

Maybe as much as the Four Emperors or the religious leaders.

So I couldn’t easily decide what to do.

“Don’t worry, priestess. Who am I? This is Jin Tae-gong. “There are not many people in the Church of Heaven and Earth who can beat me.”

Jin Tae-gong grinned and smiled.

An expression full of confidence.

The number of followers of Cheonjigyo does not reach 100,000 like the Demonic Cult, but if you search the entire central plain, you will easily reach tens of thousands. Among these people, Jin Tae-gong has the skills that can be counted on one finger.

As if to prove it, there were quite a few famous masters whom he met while carrying out missions in the midfield who actually knelt before his blade.

His words can never be said to be groundless confidence.

“I’m really glad I have you.”

“haha! Aren’t I the one who always stands on the priestess’s side? “No matter what I do, I will sacrifice my life to do it for the priestess.”

“Tae-gong….”

“Mistress….”

Geum Geum-ran cried and held Jin Tae-gong’s hand.

How can there be someone so reliable?

Yuk Cheol-wan, who has always been by her side since childhood, is a very dirty person, and Chu Jak-han, who is said to be the most handsome man in the Church of Heaven and Earth, is grumpy and unreliable.

But Jin Tae-gong is different.

Strong, confident and always rolling up his sleeves to stand up for himself. That alone may be enough to move one’s heart, but the fact that he is willing to sacrifice his life for her is something that is forbidden…

There is no such thing as a brat.

She lowered her head slightly and smiled.

“I will do anything for Taegong. “You believe it, right?”

“Wh… Of course I believe it! Sisin….”

Kwaaaaaak-!

At that time, an ear-piercing scream was heard outside.

Jin Tae-gong, startled, quickly looked out the window.

Chaechaechaeang-!

What you hear is the sound of swords clashing.

At the same time, it is a strange sound that is like a haunting sound.

“Kwaaagh?!”

“Off… gooseok!”

Who will die?

It doesn’t even look like anything like that.

This was because a thick, fog-like green haze was covering the entire area. The moment Jin Taegong saw it, he realized something was wrong.

“Dancing alone…? “Could it be… a party?!”

“You’re saying it’s all a party? “You mean those terrible poisonous species in Sacheon?”

“Even if that wasn’t the case, I heard they were following us. “I never thought… the safe house would be found.”

Boom boom boom!

Things exploded here and there, and ear-piercing screams were heard. The poisonous dance became even thicker, and those who could not stand it clutched their chests and vomited blood.

The number of these people in this Sacheon branch is considerable.

Due to the nature of Sacheon, more personnel are deployed there than in Hubuk.

But what does that mean?

Prisoners who are not immune to poison cannot even be mice in front of a cat. One by one, they fell to the ground from the poison and their throats were torn off by the swinging blade.

“We have to get out!”

“Eh… yes! all right. And Taegong….”

“Yes?”

Jin Tae-gong, who was in a hurry to grab her hand and leave the room, turned his head to look at her when he heard a soft voice calling.

At that moment, Geum Geum-ran smiled brightly.

It is a fairy’s smile that is comparable to that of any other flower.

Without realizing it, my face turned red.

“What I said earlier… you will never forget it, right?”

“What… ah…! of course!”

“believe!”

“Do not worry! “I am always on the priestess’s side.”

Geum Geum-ran tilted his head as he looked at the person who spoke boldly.

No, not like that.

I’m telling you to sacrifice your life to protect it, you bastard.

* * *

“Don’t miss a single one.”

“How dare you do Gwangjonggyo (狂宗敎)!”

Tang Wen-hye looked around Cheonji-gyo’s safe house with an extremely cold gaze. How dare a cult with no genealogy sneak into Sacheon and expand its influence in metallurgy?

How ridiculously did they look at Sacheondangga to have done something like this?

The Tang family is by no means as soft as the Namgung family.

Also, the party does not tolerate threats.

Because of such a tradition, for countless years, it has become one of the top three noble families, following Namgung and Moyong.

“It seems like the number is more than I thought… are you flattered? Kill them all?”

At that time, Dang Mun-hye nodded at the words of a man who quietly approached her and asked.

“…You don’t have to choose any means or methods.”

“haha! “As expected, you know something.”

Tang Mun-hye walked, ignoring even the sound of laughter. There are more people gathered here than expected. Also, it occurred to me that the place called Cheonjigyo that she had ignored might have been a rather special place.

Deep in the mouth of Sacheon.

People created safe houses in places they never thought there would be anything. They even deceived the eyes by setting up a true plan, so at least they have considerable financial resources and a level of skill to set up a true plan.

In addition, martial arts skills are also quite good.

It is said that they have an overwhelming victory because they are unable to move properly due to the poisonous dance, but if it had not been for the poisonous dance, this side may also have suffered considerable damage.

What if they launched a surprise general attack against the party?

I don’t know, but no matter how much poison and memorization were used, the party may have had to endure considerable damage. Thinking about that made me even more embarrassed and angry.

I bit my lip tightly and opened my mouth.

“…Find the priestess. “It will be nearby.”

* * *

Sacheondanga’s pursuit is fierce and fast.

They chased after them so fearfully, so quickly, and so viciously that it made us realize why they had been in the Eight Great Families for so long.

“Gagging?!”

The subordinate with a dagger stuck in his neck fell down and lost another one.

They moved with more than thirty guards, but there were less than five of them left. Of course, they didn’t last very long either.

Puk puk puk!

“Ah!?”

As if to prove that they are more adept at memorizing than anyone else, they fly as if they are shooting an arrow from a very long distance.

It’s an incredibly elaborate move that seems to predict even the moment you throw your body away to avoid it.

“You damn bastards…”

Jin Taegong gritted his teeth.

If it were a head-to-head match, you would be able to win somehow. But they didn’t seem to have any intention of doing that in the first place.

All kinds of tricks are used.

Poisonous rain was sprinkled in the safe house, and all the rain showers that I had only heard about poured down.

Is that all there is?

Socheonroe.

Dangga’s vision is to make Jincheonroe small and carry it around.

As they fell like rain, explosions occurred here and there, and the subordinates caught up became corpses without being able to do anything.

They say Jincheonroe is taboo in martial arts, but is Socheonroe okay?

What kind of shit like this is happening?

“Tae Tae Gong! “Are you okay?”

“Do not worry. “I will definitely save the priestess.”

“yes! “I will believe it.”

Jin Tae-gong smiled at Geum Geum-ran’s words.

When the person serving me said that I believed in him, for some reason my shoulders felt stronger.

Soon, Jin Tae-gong began to move quickly down the mountain path, as if saving her was the only reason he was alive.

I recklessly rode the winding and rough road. Considering that Geum Geum-ran would be difficult, he did not seem to think at all about his body getting tired.

“We… will be okay, right?”

“Do not worry. “No matter how hard I try, I will soon get tired of it and go back.”

The mountains are rough.

Due to the nature of the safe house, it was built in the most difficult terrain to prevent something like this from happening. No matter how terrible the Four Heavenly Dangga are, they will not be able to pursue it until the end.

Of course, this is entirely his opinion.
