Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return - Chapter 62
Episode 62
“Hmm… disappeared?”
“…Yes, not even a trace.”
A male apostle who is said to be the pinnacle of the current demonic religion.
He was sitting on the Heavenly Demon Seat, looking down at his son-in-law with a sour expression on his face.
He must have been so discouraged that he swallowed something empty, frowned, and then burst into laughter.
“Does it look like he ran away?”
“Given the circumstances… it is highly likely.”
Dong Bang-gu, the leader of the Demonic Cult, drooled inwardly.
The loyalty of the demonic cultists was so high that it was incomparable to that of other powers.
It is said that brainwashing is certain because children grow up being tested on their loyalty to the Heavenly Demon from a young age.
But can you trust them all? If you ask me, it wasn’t.
Because some sometimes betrayed.
Although his identity was not properly revealed, he, the infamous leader of the Black Order, was also one of the escapees from the Demonic Cult.
So I thought that was still the case.
If there is anything gained from Musinbidong, its value is literally beyond imagination.
“The signal that it has been successful has clearly been raised. However, no matter how long I waited, there was no contact, so I went to the safe house and found only the corpses with the Nine Emperor’s sword marks remaining, and there was no sign of him.”
“That’s interesting.”
Slurp –
Sadohak soaked his throat with tea to relieve his discomfort.
The betrayal of a subordinate shook his authority.
He was someone I trusted enough to entrust with an untrustworthy task, and his loyalty was extraordinary, so the moment this news becomes known within the school, it will have a huge impact.
However, Sadohak didn’t even care about that and was just staring at something.
It was a big picture.
Although it was drawn using ink, the scenery was as vivid as if it were right in front of you, and the artist’s efforts not to miss even a small stone were visible.
It was a detailed painting of the situation at the time by the best painter in Maqiao.
Sadohak, who was quietly examining it, nodded.
“Chase. “We need to catch it before we leave Honam.”
“Jonmyeong!”
Loud boom!
A loud cheer rang out from Dongbang-gu.
Sadohak, who was staring at him as he soon turned his back and disappeared, touched his lips and smiled slightly as if something occurred to him. “
It looks like
there is a master in Honam that I didn’t know about ….”
The picture was accurate.
Since it was drawn without missing anything, from the perspective of apostolic studies, the scene was no different from seeing it vividly before one’s eyes.
Even the small marks around the shape of the corpses lying down.
Considering them all, it is clear that Guhwang disappeared not because he was greedy for what he obtained from Musinbidong, but because he was murdered by someone. He
remembered
several people’s faces in his mind .
Then he shook his head and smiled.
“Now that I think about it, I heard there is a hidden expert in Honam… so it turns out it’s you.”
Judging from the traces, it was stamped and pressed with overwhelming force. At least he would be on the same level or slightly lower than Sadohak himself.
Just thinking about it made me excited and I couldn’t control it.
That’s why he didn’t reveal to Dong Bang-gu that Gu Huang had not run away and that Go Soo was there.
Namgungcheon, the current Murim lord and swordsman of the Five Emperors, was enjoying his first break in a long time.
We were dipping our fishing rods in the huge stream of Dongjeong Lake and even wearing straw hats to avoid the scorching sun. It was no different from the village roads you see everywhere.
“I guess you like fishing.”
“Hehe, that’s about when I was young. I never got tired of sitting with a fishing rod all day. “You don’t know how long it’s been since you’ve been fishing so peacefully.”
I muttered while looking at Dan Woo-hyeon, who was sitting next to me and casting a fishing rod. Literally, his expression became infinitely softer.
Except when I was immature, I rarely remember ever having this much quiet time.
He took up the sword in order not to be pushed out by later exponents with different terms and conditions, and when he became Irip, he took up the sword to further brighten his family’s reputation.
As he grew older year by year, he reached this point, but when he looked back, he realized that there was nothing left for him.
He raised the family’s reputation and rose to the top position in the political faction. But I did nothing for myself.
“If things had gone well for this gentleman, he would have ended on a really good note.”
Namgung-cheon looked at Dan Woo-hyeon.
They don’t even have facial expressions, but it feels like they are somehow similar.
Should I say atmosphere? Should I say energy?
I didn’t know if it felt more familiar because it had an empty feel to it.
However, unlike Namgungcheon, Danwoohyeon was gaining vitality from somewhere.
“Look, look! “I caught another one!”
He holds a piece of meat in his hand and smiles. Perhaps because of that bright smile, I felt like the atmosphere had lifted somewhat.
A smile appeared on
Dan Woo-hyeon’s lips as he looked at the child .
At that moment, Nangong Cheon could not contain his surprise.
Since I came here, I have never seen him smile sincerely.
So the wide-open eyes never left Dan Woo-hyeon’s face.
“Good job. Let’s grab a bigger one next time.”
“yes! Are you sure Somi will win this time too?”
“Haha, I’ll catch something as big as you, so I’ll win, right?”
“Then more Somi! more! more! “I’m going to catch something big!”
Dan Woo-hyeon burst out laughing at that cute cry.
Then, he slowly stretched out his hand and stroked Somi’s cheek and head. Watching that natural behavior, Nangong Cheon naturally felt his heart warming up.
‘Now that I think about it, I’ve never shown myself like that before.’
He raised his son and current head of the Namgung family, Namgung Yong, strictly.
He even forced the path he had walked not only on his grandson, Namgung Kang, but also on the late Namgung Sohye.
It was no exaggeration to say that there was a world of difference from the Dan Woo-hyeon that we see now.
‘It was all in vain.’
Nam Gong-cheon realized something as he looked at Dan So-mi’s flawless smile.
Rather than pursuing strength, money, and fame, you can feel like you have the world just by looking at the smiles of your relatives.
Although Dan Woo-hyeon had neither wealth nor fame compared to Nangong-cheon, he seemed to have obtained something greater than himself, this sword emperor.
I felt very envious of that.
“When you stop and look at something else, it helps. “The harder you try to overcome, the more there are things you cannot overcome.”
M | 99
At Dan Woo-hyeon’s indifferently mumbling words, Nam Gung-cheon looked as if he had been hit with a hammer.
It seemed like he was referring to himself, who was standing still and unable to move.
‘The harder I try, the more I can’t overcome it?’ That was exactly right.
Namgungcheon tried his best to climb over the wall, but every time he tried, he fell down in pain.
‘This man… who the hell is he?!’
Namgung-cheon stared at Dan Woo-hyeon.
“Hehe, you are really interesting. “This old man truly had his eyes opened today.”
“Thank you for thinking so.” Dan Woo-hyeon turned his head again, casting his fishing rod.
I saw Namgung Sohye running from behind, panting.
Looking at it, Nangong Cheon was surprised once again.
‘You felt the presence before me?’ The nickname Ohwang was never easy to obtain. The strongest figure in the political faction was Namgungcheon, who earned the title of Emperor of Swords.
But before he could even figure it out, Woo-hyeon noticed Namgung So-hye approaching and turned his head.
This also meant that he had better senses than Namgungcheon.
‘This is ridiculous…!’
Nangong Cheon realized that his mind was becoming dizzy and took a deep breath.
Where did this person suddenly appear?
He continued to show himself as something that exceeded expectations of him being simply a mysterious person.
“grandfather!”
“What’s going on, why are you making such a fuss?”
“It is said that Commander Zhuge has been mysteriously attacked and is on the brink of death
!”
“What… what?!”
Namgung-cheon suddenly stood up.
There was such a sad feeling everywhere that the anger was clearly felt.
The person he cherished most in the Murim Alliance was Commander Zhuge Un, but he is wandering around the world of death?
This is not the time to enjoy leisurely relaxation.
I had to find out what was happening.
“Get ready. “ I will go to the branch immediately
.”
“all right!”
Namgung So-hye rushed into the manor.
Even if time is tight, there are things to take care of. I didn’t mind the clothes, but I couldn’t leave the knife behind.
“Which guy…!”
Dan Woo-hyeon looked at Nam Gung-cheon, who was angry.
I could see the wind blowing loudly next to him.
This was the anger and murderous spirit he exuded
.
But what was more unsettling than that was the faint wind of death seeping through.
That meant Namgungcheon’s death.
That wasn’t what was upsetting Dan Woo-hyeon right now. The weakly flowing wind spun around and came toward Danwoo County like a thread.
That meant that the relationship between Nam Gung-cheon and Dan Woo-hyeon was not yet broken.
Dan Woo-hyeon did not believe everything that the wind showed him.
Because humans think and act on their own.
“You might get angry.”
“Hehe, does this old lady mean it?”
But Nangong Cheon did not listen to those words. Although he lives with more of his personality than in the past, that doesn’t mean he isn’t a swordsman.
“For warriors, death is always right in front of them. In particular, pride and pride hasten that death.”
“Hehe, thank you for the advice, but this old lady has no intention of dying easily and has no pride whatsoever.”
“Right.”
Dan Woo-hyeon said no more. At that moment, Dan So-mi, who sensed that the atmosphere was strange, was held tightly in her arms and patted her back and looked at Dong-ho Dong.
A weak wind blew again and passed by Danwoohyun.
At that time, Namgung So-hye, who had packed her luggage, came running in a huff. Since it was a considerable distance from here to the branch, we were in a situation where we had to go to Agyang and rent a horse
.
“It’s a nice place to rest. It would have been better if
things like this hadn’t happened. A look of regret crept onto Namgungcheon’s face.
I was resting comfortably for the first time in a long time, and I realized once again that it is human life that does not go as planned.
He turned his back with bitterness in his mouth.
Then Dan Woo-hyeon’s voice spread softly.
“Come back anytime… if you still have time to breathe.”
Namgungcheon looked away at the words whose meaning he could not understand.
However, even looking at Dan Woo-hyeon’s expression as he looked at Dong-ho Dong, I couldn’t tell what he meant.
Namgungcheon turned his back. Now was not the time to think about anything else.
“Let’s hurry up and go!”
