Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 478
Episode 478. Do I have any weaknesses?
I got to know Taebaek Seonin when I first saw him at the Seokgyeongjang where I was connected.
This means that this incident is due to the will of the famous cult leader.
If Baekdumagun was the follower of the famous religious leader, Palhwang was no different from his disciple.
This proves that the interest of famous religious leaders in ancient books is that great.
It is difficult for Seokgyeongjang to survive if it does not establish negotiations with famous religious leaders.
No, at least after ten warlords, Namgung-yeon dies.
Because the person who annihilated the monk to keep a secret is the famous religious leader.
To save her, he must turn the attention of the famous religious leader to himself.
how?
It is a dog fight with a famous religious leader whose outcome is difficult to predict.
I mean, with a letter.
Now the ball has passed to the famous religious leader.
Shall we take the risk of the old book being revealed to the world and aim for Namgung-yeon?
Or will he share a secret with Nam Goong-yeon?
If you are a famous religious leader, you will choose to share with one person.
Seonin Taebaek trembled and glared at Yeonjeokha.
It was the first time since I came to Gangho in the name of the Eight Emperors that I was humiliated like today.
“Fast. If you release Vajrapani…”
However, without exception, Yeonjeokha put his toe between the top of Vajrapani’s buttock and Yanggwan.
“Wow!”
The Vajrapani Bodhisattva, who was listening nervously, coughed up blood at the shock that was transmitted to the Danjeon.
“you! this guy! dare!”
It’s time for Taebaek Seonin to jump out.
Suddenly, an antique dagger protruded from his chest and spun around.
‘omg!’
Taebaek Seonin could not move easily.
I swear I’ve never heard of a sword like that.
‘If you fight with the determination of Dongguijin(同歸於盡, you die and I die), there might be a chance of winning…’
However, the task given to Palhwang is not Dongguijin, but the recovery of old books.
Taebaek Seonin gritted his teeth and endured.
He was angry enough to turn the tap, but he couldn’t change the Eight Emperors to Yeonjeokha.
Yeonjeokha said to the trembling Seonin Taebaek.
“why? Do you have something to say?”
“Did you really have to do that to those who couldn’t resist?”
“You tried to kill me first. You should retire when you have the chance. You don’t know when you’ll be holding a knife again, so why don’t you just let it go? Do you know that I am a bodhisattva?”
Taebaek Seonin looked at Yeonjeokha with dazzled eyes.
Most Murim people struggle not to offend the famous religion.
But this guy was different.
Judging from what you’re saying, it seems that you’re even considering a war with famous religions.
If so, the transcription of old books would not be a bluff.
What can a cornered mouse not do?
“ha! I will convey your wishes to the headmaster. Until then… don’t be rash.”
Taebaek Seonin did it by turning the sound of ‘don’t copy’.
Fortunately, I was not an ignorant person even though I was a senior, so I understood what the other person was saying.
“okay. I’ll wait for good news. Let’s go.”
He left only after confirming that the eight emperors were leaving with the three of them.
***
Seokgyeongjang.
He clicked his tongue as he passed through the broken gate.
“Tsk tsk! I didn’t just send the Palhwang. I should have paid for the repairs.”
I was annoyed at the thought of making a living.
At that time, Dang Yun-mang, who was collecting ‘poisoning’ in the yard, approached.
“What happened to the Eight Emperors?”
“I’m back.”
“What about the monster?”
“I let them deal with it. It was fun to hide and watch.”
“Did you have the law?”
“No, did you catch it by ignoring it? If you don’t have the law, you have to do that.”
Then, Tang Yun-mang saw Yeon Je-ha’s chest.
“What are you looking at?”
“Your dagger must be Dharma, too, right?”
“well. I don’t know if it’s a dagger, but it’s not an ordinary dagger.”
Yeon Jeok-ha replied with an ambiguous face.
It was because he had seen a dagger turn into a giant serpent on Mt. Fengji.
Dan Yun-mang, as if he had no more questions, moved again to find ‘poisoning’.
I went into the main house where I over-admired him.
The yard was clean, as if ‘poisoning’ was collected from the main house.
Workers were sweeping the gray sand from the flagstones with brooms.
Seeing that the black sand had turned gray, it seemed that the poison was gone.
“Is it okay for an old man to scrub?”
“Yes yes. I’m doing it because the old man said it was okay to clean.”
Unlike Yeonjeokha, the workers respected Dangunmang and Shimtong because they were masters of Murim.
“Is old Sim gone?”
“Yes, he returned to his dwelling place with his disciples.”
Hearing Yeon Jeok-ha’s voice, Namgung-yeon, who was in the room, came out to the main hall.
“great job.”
“Ah, it wasn’t like that. It was more difficult when I went to catch my sister and the Twelve Horsemen.”
Yeonjeokha sat down at the end of the floor.
I was a little tired because I was relieved.
I didn’t think it was a big deal, but it seemed to be a bit burdensome.
“Did the trip go well?”
“yes.”
Namgungyeon came and sat down next to Yeonjeokha.
And looking at the workers sweeping, he asked with a grave face.
“What did you talk about after chasing the Eight Emperors?”
“I said that if I didn’t get the old book back quietly, I would copy it and spread it all over the world.”
“I guess it was to turn the famous religious leader’s attention to you.”
Nam Gung-yeon immediately guessed Yeon Jeok-ha’s intentions.
He did not deny that he had a relationship.
It was because she couldn’t fool Namgung-yeon with her own head anyway.
“It’s not necessarily like that. I wanted to let the famous religious leaders know that the stone sutra is a beehive.”
That’s why he gave his hand to Palhwang.
It was like showing a glimpse of what happens when you touch the stone sutras.
“Even if the famous cult leader loses this time, there will be remnants of you. You will be remembered as a person who went against his will and took on challenges.”
“are you okay. After all, if I touch my sister, I will become an enemy of the mortal enemy. No one can get to my sister without stepping on me. I will.”
Namgoongyeon sighed lightly.
‘So do i.’
Right now, he felt the same way, so he couldn’t blame Yeon Jeok-ha for his actions.
After thinking for a moment, Namgoongyeon said.
“The famous religious leader will accept your offer this time.”
“really?”
Yeon Jeok-ha looked at Namgung-yeon with surprised eyes.
You were going to die and I was going to die, but would you accept it?
“Because it is better to share the secret of an ancient book with one person than to let the whole world know. the problem is.”
Namgoongyeon paused for a moment.
After waiting for nothing, Yeonjeokha asked.
“What’s the problem?”
“A famous religious leader is not someone to be dragged around by others. I might entrust you with the delivery of the old books.”
“Isn’t that the mark?”
“Since it happened because of a delivery accident, they will try to exclude the upper side or the target country. On the surface.”
“Then what is your intention?”
“I’ll call you and check things out about the old books. Is it really only me who read it, or is there anything transcribed?”
“Why me?”
“Because there is no one who knows the power of the ‘Lord of Words’ as surely as you. Even if no one else believes you, will you believe it?”
“That’s right.”
Yeonjeokha shook his head.
Considering the famous religious leader’s ‘words’ and his own ‘words’, lies between the two are impossible.
“You can go one more time.”
It’s a little annoying, but if it’s for the peace of Seokgyeongjang, there’s no reason you can’t go to Mt. Fungji.
“It may not end with confirmation.”
“What more do you have left?”
“I will ask you for something in exchange for concessions. No one with a mind would pass up an opportunity like this.”
“What if I refuse?”
“Now that I know of your weakness through this incident, I will use it.”
“Do I have any weaknesses?”
“What is it?”
Yeon Jeok-ha looked at Namgung-yeon with an absurd face.
There was no way she would lie, and I wondered what her weaknesses were that she didn’t know about.
“me.”
“Why is your sister a weakness? It’s an advantage.”
“You don’t choose to do anything for me. We don’t know the value of old books. What if there is no secret in the ancient books that will thrill the world? The ‘killing of the Eight Emperors’ could have just happened because of the famous religious leader’s desire for monopoly.”
“…”
The serial killer listened to her words in silence.
It seemed that now she understood the meaning of the word weakness.
The famous religious master can give up the old books, but he cannot give up Namgungyeon.
In this fight, whoever has more important things loses.
“Then I will ask for something else instead of accepting your offer.”
“If you can do something, listen to it.”
I didn’t worry about getting married.
For the safety of Seokgyeongjang and Namgungyeon, he could have done that much.
“ha! I hope everyone is happy with me.”
Yeonjeokha wrapped her arms around her shoulders.
“Everything will be fine.”
Namgoongyeon rested her head on his optimistic shoulder.
It was the first time I felt someone else becoming my heart’s will, but I didn’t hate it.
***
Xinjiang.
Heavenly Mountain.
Xinjiang is part of what people call the West Region.
It has long been a key point of east-west transportation, and there were many small countries established by city-states and nomadic peoples around the Taklamakan Desert.
In Xinjiang, a desolate land far from the center of the continent, there is an area called ‘Heavenly Mountain’.
There are people who don’t know ‘Xinjiang’ at the northern end, but there is no one who doesn’t know ‘Tianshan’.
Tianshan is famous not because of its specialties, ‘walnuts’, ‘grapes’ and ‘carrots’.
In Tianshan, there was the Maqiao, the spiritual leader of Xinjiang.
Demonic Cult.
The name is feared by continental people, but not so in Xinjiang.
The people of Xinjiang generally agreed that ‘the new world will come only when the corrupt world is destroyed’.
Since they lived in a barren land, the degree of corruption was weak, so they avoided the sword of the Demonic Cult.
As a result, fear or antipathy toward the Demonic Cult was minimal.
One of the reasons was that the celestials, the rulers of the Demonic Cult, governed the Tianshan and Xinjiang areas.
The vicious Madou looked at them and shrank.
It was the same even now, a long time since the Demonic Cult leader entered Closing Hall training.
Even if the leader disappeared, the influence of the heavenly beings did not diminish, and the whole area of Tianshan was peaceful.
Cheonji (天池) of Heavenly Mountain.
An elderly man who appeared suddenly scooped up the water of heaven and earth with both hands and gulped it down.
“Hey! Feel so good.”
It is the taste of heaven and earth water that has been tasted for the first time in ten years.
Noh Do-kyung, the eldest demon sword from the East, even washed his face and turned around.
The magistrate’s palace came into view in the distance.
Although the color has faded from wear and tear, the overwhelming size is still the same.
He walked briskly through the front door.
Perhaps it was the first time in 10 years, the guards at the front gate blocked their way with a formidable glaring glare.
“Who are you?”
“Who is your tenth commander?”
When Noh Do-gyeong asked again, a man with a beard among the guards answered.
“You’re also a jerk, but who are you?”
“Tsk! It would have been nice if there was Jwabulak…”
Noh Do-gyeong muttered, took out a silver plate from his chest and threw it at Tub-seok-buri.
The guards who confirmed the silver plate broke and folded their backs.
“I give my heart to the Demonic Cult! [把心交給魔].”
Noh Do-kyung laughed.
The questions and answers I heard again after 10 years were as friendly as the taste of water in heaven and earth.
“I will die for the Demonic Cult [会为魔而死].”
As he responded, the guards cautiously raised their heads.
Before long, Tubseokburi offered the silver plaque with both hands.
After Noh Do-kyung took the silver plaque back, he moved inside.
