Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 408

Episode 408. Seongyeong (仙境), the realm of immortality

“Heh, that can’t be. There will be no unilateral breaking of the promise of Chilpamun by non-partisans. If that was the case, I wouldn’t have called in the disciples who were on the way to Gangho.”

At the explanation of the merchant Yeong-gyeol, a long-time non-partisan factionist, the reader and Yang So-ran nodded their heads.

I said it to stimulate my opponent, but I never actually thought of it that way.

In the first place, the ‘three-year commitment’ is not something that one or two factions can spontaneously break.

The moment it breaks, the wind blows again in Gangho.

There is no faction that would do such a thing without a minimum preparation for war.

It goes without saying, but when Chilpamun prepares for war, famous people also come to know.

If I had judged that it was really a situation where I would break the ‘three-year contract’, I would not have had this conversation.

“Now then, what happened to the founding history? Could you please explain?”

Yang So-ran did not give the merchant Yeong-gyeol a chance to escape.

A sigh escaped from the mouth of the spirit merchant.

There was already no one in Sipeon who did not know the work of Yang Hyeon-ryeong and the disciple of Ohryonggung.

It was all the more so because the troops of Cheonhoso were mobilized from the morning.

Of course, only a few people knew the details of the story.

However, it has already become a well-known anecdote that he touched a non-partisan disciple and got into trouble.

I knew that one day a famous school would come to visit me.

But I had no idea that it would connect in this way.

‘Tsk! You can’t hide Yeonnamcheon.’

There are also famous religious leaders in the Ten Words, so you may have already obtained information.

It means that it is not a situation to pass it off as a hasty lie.

“I don’t even know the frequency of the founding history. However, I do know that a member of the Golden Guard and a disciple of the main faction were involved. Recently…”

The merchant Yeonggyeol told me about the intertwining of Juksanhyeon Hyeonryeong and Ohryonggung disciple.

“…It was the Geumuiwi that organized the four months. After that, Yeonnamcheon, a disciple of Oryong’s palace, voluntarily descended from the mountain, saying that he apologized for the damage caused to the monk. That’s all.”

“So you’re saying that Yeonnamcheon, a secular disciple of Oryonggung, raided the main school’s Buddhist temple in the history of the country?”

“Even Guirang knows about it, but it is impossible to know the whereabouts of the secular disciple from the head mountain. Even more, Wulong Palace is a place where all kinds of everyday people gather. There, about 30 secular disciples are produced every year, and Yeonnamcheon is one of them. Let alone the frequency, I don’t think the ruler of the Dragon Palace knows much about it. Bindo is just an answer to the question, ‘Are there any students involved with the government or the royal guard?’”

It is a moderate mix of fact and ignorance.

Wouldn’t you know if I lied?

Yang So-ran frowned at the words based on the truth.

“I don’t know. That’s incredible. It’s normal for a disciple with that kind of background to be treated as well as a disciple from the head office, even if it’s a disciple from a secular family.”

“Of course, Bindu also became interested in belatedly. However, by then, rumors had already grown so much that he said he would descend. It was to no avail. As you know, the disciples of the secular family do not cling to the relationship with the head mountain, so I heard later that he had descended from the mountain. Even the ruler of Ohryonggung didn’t know much about him. Such a talented person suddenly descended, and the frequency was regrettable.”

No matter how smart Yang Shaoran was, he couldn’t even look into the heart of the merchant.

“So you’re saying there’s a possibility that it’s Yeonnamcheon, a disciple of Oryonggung’s family, but it’s not certain?”

“exactly.”

“Of course, since the secular disciple did it arbitrarily, it must have nothing to do with the ‘three-year commitment’.”

“Exactly.”

“great. I am fully aware that this is the official position of the independent faction. In our school, we are convinced that he is the attempted assassination of Xuanzang Xuanzang. Being a non-partisan, secular disciple, I won’t ask you to take responsibility for the ‘three-year commitment’. Even so, you have to take at least some responsibility.”

“How do you mean taking the least amount of responsibility?”

“Please give me the destruction of his appearance. Go through the Ohryonggung or whatever. If you make an excuse that even that is impossible, you will accept all the words of Jang Moon-in as lies. You don’t have to explain the cost of lies, right? It’s the same even if you play a joke on your face.”

The corners of Yang So-ran’s mouth rose slightly.

There was a strangely twisted intent to kill in a light smile.

The young merchant nodded his head politely.

Anyway, Yeonnamcheon’s appearance was so conspicuous that it was impossible to fake it.

“Okay. I’m going to send someone to Ohryonggung to ask him to break his face.”

Merchant Yeonggyeol sent Cheonseongdosa to Oryonggung.

After that, he personally guided the masters of famous religions to the Jigaekdang.

Maybe it’s been about a meal (about 30 minutes)?

Master Cheonseong entered the Jigaekdang with a sheet of paper.

“Jang Moon-in. I have received Yeonnamcheon’s disfigurement.”

As soon as the merchant Yeonggyeol received the paper, he handed it over to Yang Soran without checking.

Yang So-ran, who was looking at the rice paper, frowned.

Seeing the grotesquely swollen face as if stung by a bee, it’s not usually unpleasant.

“what is this?”

“I heard that Yeonnamcheon’s appearance is ruined. Is there a problem?”

“A human face looks like this?”

“Ah, I heard about the frequency at first glance. It is said that his face is covered with sores, so he can be recognized even from ten miles away. Could it be that you sent a false picture that will soon be revealed?”

“Still, this is too harsh.”

“If you’re not that trustworthy, you can go to the Dragon Palace and check it out. The practitioners of Oryonggung have been with him, so they will soon be able to determine the authenticity of the defacement.”

“Can you take responsibility for that?”

“Hehe, if that disfigurement is false, I will practice my 100 years of face-to-face training.”

Even though the merchant Ying-gyeol appeared proudly, Yang So-ran did not take his eyes off his suspicions.

She summoned Gu Jin-seo, the Reverse God Magician, who was standing behind her.

“In case you don’t know, take the face-breaking machine and go and meet the practitioners of the Oryong Palace. I wonder if a person named Yeonnamcheon really looks like this.”

“yes.”

Gu Jin-seo carefully rolled up the rice paper and went outside.

When he disappeared, Yang So-ran smiled and said.

“I don’t think Jang Moon-in lied. But I can’t believe that someone with a face like that exists. Please understand.”

“haha. There shouldn’t be any doubts about doing a big job.”

“But you are smiling. Even if you are a disciple of a secular family, the comfort of a non-partisan disciple is at stake.”

At Yang So-ran’s point, the merchant Yeong-gyeol was stunned.

I was at peace with my belief in Yeonnamcheon’s inaction, but to see through it.

“I thought that all of the disciples of Oryonggung were sorcerers and had nothing to do with the history of the founding of the country.

“Is that really all there is?”

Yang So-ran stared into the merchant’s eyes as if trying to see through them.

However, the spirit merchant was also not easy.

While the two were engaged in psychological warfare, Gu Jin-seo came back sweating profusely.

“What did you say?”

“Every ten out of ten say that Yeonnamcheon is right. To some, I didn’t tell them their names and only showed them their faces, but the answer was the same. It seems that the appearance of Yeonnamcheon is right.”

“okay? Spread this picture in places related to famous churches. Be sure to put a moderate reward on it.”

“All right.”

Gu Jin-seo returned to her original position holding the paper.

Yang So-ran and Blood Sword rose from their seats.

Yang So-ran, who was about to leave the Jiaekdang, looked back and said,

“I don’t know what you believe in, but I hope that no partisans were involved in the history of the founding of the country. In the unlikely event that the shaman faction breaks the ‘three-year promise’…”

Yang So-ran shook her head with a bleak smile.

Even the spirit merchant couldn’t accept it as much as that time.

I got goosebumps from the creepy ears in her smile.

It feels like a peek at the essence of the Twelve Horses.

‘It’s really not the eyes of a person.’

Merchant Yeonggyeol just stood there and watched the masters of the famous school slip away like the ebb tide.

“Are you alright, a long person?”

At the question of the Jinmu Palace merchant Cheonji, the merchant Yeonggyeol woke up from his thoughts.

“Isn’t Yeonnamcheon okay?”

On the contrary, he was worried about Yeonnamcheon.

Looking at Yang So-ran up close, he was concerned about Yeonnamcheon.

Then, the merchant of heaven and earth laughed.

“He’s already been killing twelve horsemen with a single sword. He even learned the magic of the Five Dragons, so what are you worried about?”

“Is that so? I still can’t believe what he did. To be honest, his teacher, Cheongbulno, wasn’t even that good.”

The merchant of heaven and earth shook his head.

“If that were the case, Ohryonggung would have made a name for himself in the Cheonji League. I think it is possible because it is Yeonnamcheon.”

“He looked very ordinary. Why does it only happen to him?”

“well. I don’t know, but it reminds me of something he said a long time ago.”

“What did you say?”

“He said that he learned swordsmanship from Gucheonhyeonnyeo when he was young.”

“Are you Gucheonhyeon? Are you sure that is the Gucheonhyeonnyeo from Domun that I know?”

“Yes, she said that Gucheonhyeon taught it herself.”

The Cheonji Merchant gave strength to the word ‘direct’.

“In person? Is that possible?”

“At first, I thought I had that kind of imagination in my young mind. But lately, I’ve been thinking a little differently.”

“You mean something else?”

“Do you know that Jang Mun-in writes the Byeokryeokbu in the name of Yeonnamcheon, Gucheonhyeonnyeo?”

“I have heard of it too, but I am not well versed in the art of magic. Does that matter?”

“Originally, wall calendar is supervised by ‘Gucheon Cheungwon Thunderseongbohwacheonjon (九天應元雷聲普化天尊)’. So, all other magicians are praying to ‘Gucheon Cheungwon Thunderseongbohwa Cheonjon’.”

“her! By the way, are you saying that Yeonnamcheon is praying for Gucheonhyeonnyeo?”

The spirit merchant’s eyes widened.

Since he is also a guru, he basically has a deep understanding of the divine status.

Each god has a hierarchy, and the domains they govern are different.

If ‘Gucheon Cheungwon Thunderbolt Bohwa Cheonjon’ is in charge of wall power, he must go through it.

But borrowing the power of Gucheonhyeonnyeo to use the wall force?

Could that be possible?

“It is said that the masters of the Five Dragon Palaces were also arguing over the matter. In fact, there was a time when I relied on Gucheonhyeonnyeo to make the Byeokryeokbu.”

“All must have failed, right?”

“That’s right. It is said that only Yeonnam was possible.”

“Huh.”

The spirit merchant looked at the merchant of heaven and earth with dazzling eyes.

I don’t know how to accept what happened to Yeonnamcheon.

“The masters of the Dragon Palace who taught him also said they didn’t know why.”

“Why do you think that is?”

“Doesn’t Jang Moon-in know about Hwagyeong?”

“I know.”

‘Hwagyeong’ refers to the highest level of martial arts called ‘Johwagyeong’ or ‘Sinhwagyeong’.

The ultimate realm that cannot be reached with a human body.

After that, it’s just the realm of the imagination.

“If Chang Wen-in and I lived in the same age as Lu Dong-bin, what would you say about Lu Dong-bin’s status?”

“…”

The spirit merchant could not answer.

I thought of ‘Hwagyeong’, but it was an expression that was insufficient for swordsman Yeo Dong-bin.

A smile appeared on the corner of the merchant’s mouth.

“The female swordsman was not at the realm of a human, not only in swordsmanship, but also in martial arts.”

The words ‘swordsmanship’ and ‘spelling’ sparked the spirit merchant’s eyes.

Come to think of it, Yeo Dongbin was similar to Yeonnamcheon.

“Lu Dongbin also received direct instruction from Zhong Liquan, one of the Eight Immortals. Also, there is no boundary between swordsmanship and martial arts between Lu Dongbin and Yeonnamcheon.”

“Do you believe that Gucheonhyeonnyeo taught herself?”

“Because it is difficult to explain his state otherwise.”

“His realm….”

“I would like to call it ‘Seonkyung’.”

The fairyland is the realm of immortality.

In fact, there was no one to compare ‘swordsmanship’ and ‘art’, so it was an expression made as a last resort.

The Young-gyeol merchant nodded as if agreeing.

“Wo Geomseon can be called ‘Seongyeong’. Yeonnamcheon is still unsatisfactory, but…”

Seongyeong.

It can’t be compared to Dongbin Yeo, but it seems like an expression suitable for Yeonnamcheon.
