Possessing a Murim Clan’s Youngest Son - Chapter 53
Episode 53. Side Effect
Ok Tae-je’s eyes brightened.
“Weird guy? “If it’s a strange guy… maybe he’s the legendary plinth we’ve been looking for.”
Then the man shook his head and said.
“no. It never seemed like it. “It was so… so ordinary.”
“joy. Hiding the extraordinary within the ordinary is the beauty of a plinth.”
“That’s right. Lord of the palace. Small people deserve to learn more.”
Emperor Oktae said as if he just remembered it at that moment.
“But where was Gu Cheon Se seriously injured?”
“That…”
The man scratched his head as if he was troubled.
Emperor Ok Tae shouted.
“Why can’t you speak!”
“yes. yes. I will post it. “He suffered fractures to his right arm and both legs.”
There was no change in Emperor Ok’s expression.
“But that’s nothing compared to other injuries.”
“Another injury?”
“yes. That’s right. “He will never be able to give birth to children.”
Then Emperor Ok Tae blinked for a moment.
And then…
“Hahahahahaha!”
If you do that, doesn’t it make you laugh as if the palace will leave?
“ha ha ha. You became a eunuch? Is this karma?… That idiot can never use what is his…. Isn’t this ridiculous? “Tsk tsk tsk tsk.”
Emperor Ok Tae, who had been laughing so hard that tears came to his eyes, finally spoke.
“Who did that?”
The man answered, shaking his head.
“The small men arrived late because they were scouting somewhere else. There was just a woman and a man lying there. And there was just one more young male disciple.”
“Hmm… this is truly a strange thing…”
Ok Tae-je was silent for a moment, lost in thought.
The man said.
“The Nine Heavens… what should I do?”
Emperor Oktae said.
“Nine thousand years… well. It might still be useful. It’s rare to find a master with that level of inaction… Anyway, they say he got injured and can’t be a bitch anymore… We’ll just have to wait and see for now. “Try to keep his limbs together.”
“yes. Lord of the palace. All right. “Soin, I’ll just leave now.”
Taeje Ok nodded and fell into deeper thoughts as he watched the back of his subordinate walking away.

Han Ibi was very curious about So Eun Ri’s current condition.
So, after much deliberation, I went to the lodging where Bok Yeon-hwa and So Eun-ri were staying together.
The two used a small building in one corner of Cheongseongpa, which was originally used as a barn, but was remodeled.
When Bok Yeon-hwa returned to the Cheongseong faction and said she wanted to use this barn, everyone rolled up their sleeves to stop her… but they
couldn’t break her stubbornness.
In fact, she wanted to practice in a quiet and undisturbed place.
So, even if Han Ibi went there, she would not be noticed by people.
Knock knock.
Han Ibi performed the universal knock on the door, a common etiquette.
“Who are you?”
I heard Bok Yeon-hwa’s nervous voice.
It was not because the disciples of the Qingcheng Sect, who knew Elder Bok’s temperament well, had no reason to dare disturb her rest.
Han Ibi said in a low voice.
“Um…Elder. “This is Zhonglimae.”
“what?”
Han Ibi cleared her voice again and spoke.
“Zhonglimei is here. Please open the door for a moment.”
Silence followed for a moment.
At that moment when I thought I should at least put my ear to the door…
a voice came from inside.
“It’s open, come in.”
Han Ibi quickly answered.
“yes. thank you “Elder.”
The old wooden door creaked open.
‘omg!’
As soon as Han Ibi enters, Bok Yeon-hwa glares at her with her tiger eyes raised.
She said in a loud voice.
“What’s going on?”
Han Ibi answered hesitantly.
“Ah… me. Well… I was worried about So Sojeo…”
“Hmph. “Is the mouse thinking about the cat?”
“no. That’s not it…”
At that time, I caught sight of So Eun-ri lying on the bed over Bok Yeon-hwa’s shoulder.
Han Ibi thought it was time to move quickly and move towards her and said.
“ah! So Sojeo. “How are you feeling?”
At that time, So Eun-ri opened her eyes weakly and said.
“I asked for it.”
The moment when Han Ibi just blinked, not knowing what was going on. She continued.
“I want to ask you something, so please let me in.”
Then Han Ibi, who understood, said with a grin.
“aha. okay. So Sojeo. “Please tell me.”
So Eun-ri closed her eyes again and opened them with difficulty and spoke.
“About that day… I don’t really remember it… but when I was passed out from the effects of the drug, you… You did something…” ‘
Ugh… Could it be that you secretly took my cancer drug? ‘Do you remember…?’
he said, waving his hand vigorously.
“It’s probably because of the medicine. I was lying down with Soger at that time. “I almost… ah… me too…”
So Eun-ri then cut him off with a horrified look on his face.
“That’s Okay. “Don’t say more.”
It’s worth it.
Didn’t she almost witness the terrible moment when Han Ibi was raped?
Han Ibi said.
“Anyway, thank you very much. So Sojeo. Thanks to you… thanks to you, I was able to be safe. Anyway, I’m worried about Sojeo’s condition. How are you feeling?”
At that time, a harsh voice was heard from behind Han Ibi.
“Don’t touch the sick child, and when you’re done with your business, get out. “It’s difficult for Eun-ri to move right now.”
“Ah… yes. yes. I see… But… how about the operation of internal power? “Is there any problem?”
Yeonhwa Bok frowned and answered.
“The true energy is not constant… The phenomenon of the true energy being cut off or flowing back intermittently still occurs.”
“Oh my…”
Han Ibi clicked her tongue and said, pretending to be worried. If you’re like me, attending a long essay contest would be a long way off.
It would be better to somehow allow Jong Ri-hyuk to participate as originally planned.
It was then.
“certainly!”
When Han Yi-bi and Bok Yeon-hwa turned their heads, it was So Eun-ri.
She said with a determined expression.
“I will definitely participate in the competition. “The competition schedule has been postponed, so I will recover by then.”
Hehe~. Look at this stubborn stubbornness.
This is completely identical to Master Ji.
But the story has to find its place. We can’t let things go like this.
As the story gets more twisted, Han Ibi’s level of predicting the future decreases…
Han Ibi said.
“Elder Bok. How about considering an alternative? For example, my brother is competing instead of So Sojeo…”
Bok Yeon-hwa said, shaking her head.
“When you say your older brother, do you mean Jong Ri-hyuk? “It is true that he can be useful, but compared to Eun-ri, he is a low-ranking person.”
No… That child is the main character of this world… Isn’t the grandmother mistaken?
“Besides… the distribution in terms of navigation is not correct.”
“A sailing line?”
“Yes. “So Eun-ri is my direct disciple, so she is the second generation disciple, and is the same as Seong Chun-don in the royal line, but Jong Ri-hyuk is the third generation disciple, so it does not fit the rules of the long essay selection contest.”
‘This old lady said let’s see… In the novel, when So Eun-ri was injured, she insisted so you put Jong Ri-hyuk in her place!’
But it’s something you can’t show off.
Han Ibi said with a shy smile.
“Well… there was such a rule.”
Then I took a deep sigh.
‘Hwiyu… I guess I really shouldn’t have shown up here… It’s gotten so twisted that it’s hopeless to fix it…’ “Once you’ve seen
what happened, I hope you’ll stop now.”
The order to celebrate the return of Yeonhwa was issued.
Han Ibi left their dorm, gathering her complicated thoughts.

Cheongseong Sect Elders’ Meeting.
The topic of conversation here today was definitely the story about the villain who attacked So Eun-ri and Jong Ri-hyuk.
Of course, Zhongli-mae’s story was as if it had been promised, and I was completely absorbed in it, like an invisible man… But
at that time, Bok Yeon-hwa spoke loudly.
“This is truly an unimaginable disgrace since the founding of our Great Qingcheng Sect! “We must immediately form a pursuit team and kill them!”
Then Lee Shin-song said.
“But we don’t even know who is behind it. How could you act rashly?”
“So, aren’t you saying we should send a chase team and track down the person behind it?”
At that moment, Ki Baek-eom, who could be said to be the most hot-tempered among the elders, also shouted loudly.
“you’re right! “We must track him down and capture him immediately!”
At that time, Nam Cheol-hong said.
“This is not something that can be resolved in such a hurry. “It will not be too late to think seriously and make a move.”
Lee Shin-song added.
“That’s right. We need to reorganize our battle lines. Besides, aren’t we facing the important task of selecting the next scholar?”
Bok Yeon-hwa screamed in excitement,
“What nonsense is that? “Right now, the current incumbent, Jang Moon-in, is opening his eyes red!”
At that time, Jangmun Hong Gu-geum waved his hand as if to calm down and said.
“ruler. “Everyone, please lower your voices.”
All the elders’ eyes were focused on Hong Gu-geum.
“Both of their opinions make sense… but if I keep quiet even after the deadline for the long selection process has passed, it will be easy for me to be misunderstood.”
Yeonhwa Bok said.
“Something big has happened to the monk, who would dare to misunderstand?”
Hong Gu-geum said with a smile.
“now. Elder Bok. Don’t get excited, just listen to my story. According to the rules of the Cheongseong faction, if the long essay selection contest is postponed, it is allowed to be postponed for up to 99 days. “This period of 99 days contains the mysterious meaning of how the Cheongseongpa doctrine operates.”
The number ninety-nine also had the meaning of attracting good luck and warding off bad luck in the Cheongseong faction.
Yeonhwa Bok said.
“It makes no sense. Something happened to the monk and…”
At that time, Hong Gu-geum stopped him with a sharp expression.
“hey. Elder Bok. Just now, you clearly spoke as if you were belittling me, but now you’re speaking as if you don’t even care about me.”
Then Bok Yeon-hwa, who was at a loss for words, kept her mouth shut.
Hong Gu-geum said.
“I will declare this as a long letter from the Qingcheng Sect. The Qingcheng long speech conference will be postponed for 99 days according to the Qingcheng sect regulations, and two Qingcheng sect disciples will be dispatched to investigate the background of the evil enemy. What happens after that will be left up to the newly appointed Jang Mun-in. “Did everyone understand?”

Han Ibi was visiting So Eun-ri’s residence once every two days these days.
Looking at So Eun-ri’s reaction, it didn’t seem like it was all that colorful… but Bok Yeon-hwa seemed quite displeased.
“You better not come now.”
We’ve already talked about it several times.
However, Han E-bi said,
“All of this happened to save me, so how could I, as the head of the company, pretend not to know? “I will do whatever I can until Sojeo is completely healed.”
I endured it.
Because he was so stubborn, he ended up raising Bokyeonhwa with both hands and feet. Of course, the fact that she had a very busy schedule and couldn’t stop everything played a part…
But then one day, Han Ibi felt an idea come to her mind.
Han Ibi organized some of her thoughts.
The name of the operation is ‘Returning the Story to its Place’.
Well, more than anything, what he needed most for himself was to keep the story as planned.
Han Ibi thought about it in her own way.
What should we do to keep the story intact?
So… in a word, how can the Bok Yeon-hwa camp win this long essay contest?…
‘Let’s look at the constraints first. Hmm… So Eun-ri’s will to participate in the competition is strong, but she is not fully healed. If I were to meet the unlucky Seong Chun-don in this awkwardly recovered state… I would most likely lose.’
Han Ibi thought again as she wrapped her head in worry.
‘If I can’t change this trend, maybe it would be better to help her get completely better.’
So Han Ibi came up with her own strategy.
