Return of Mount Hua Sect - Chapter 546
”Did you pack all your things?”
“…… No, this…….”
“What?”
“You’ll have to come and take a look, Sasuk.”
“Huh?”
In response to Yoon Jong’s dismal response, Baek Cheon tilted his head and headed toward the back of the residence. Soon after he arrived in front of the cart, he opened his mouth wide.
Mountain.
There was literally a mountain made of luggage. There were so many that the huge cart they dragged was so crushed that they couldn’t even see the figure.
“Wha- What is all this?”
“Gifts from the North Sea.”
“What kind of gift is this ignorantly big….?”
“Sasuk, the little Clan Leader is no joke. They seemed to be robbing the North Sea of their lives.”
“…….”
Baek Cheon closed his open mouth belatedly.
‘I’ve never seen anything like this before.’
How many people have been robbed by Chung Myung’s shamelessness?
However, none of them stepped forward to confront Mount Hua Sect and even gave away bundles of presents as if they were about to move house.
‘Will this really be okay?’ Of course, from Baek Cheon’s point of view, Chung Myung is as reliable as ever….. No, he was excellent……. No. He’s just a Sajil. Just a Sajil.
No matter how much Chung Myung is his Sajil, it was so unsettling and frightening that a promising talent in the midst of growing up would be influenced by ‘that’ Chung Myung.
“That…… Yoon Jong.”
“Yes, Sasuk.”
“Don’t you think the Clan Leader seems to follow Chung Myung often?”
“Even our Sasuk’s eyes looking at Sect Leader can’t be compared with that.”
“…….”
“It’s almost like a dog’s eyes looking at its owner.”
“You punk! Calling Clan Leader a dog!”
“It was inevitable truth…….”
“Ughhh.”
Baek Cheon scratched his head as if he were overwhelmed.
Of course, he understands it. Chung Myung should have shown a lot of things about the North Sea.
Chung Myung must have looked like a deity from Heaven to Seol So-baek, who had no place to rely on.
So it’s only natural for him to believe and follow Chung Myung.
‘He’s a demon! Clan Leader-nim!’
How did something so terrible happen…….
“What should we do, Sasuk?”
“Ugh……. What else could there be? Pick out the right ones, for now, keep them, and return all the rest.”
“Still, we did receive it…..”
“If you don’t want to see Chung Myung bring another cart, give it back quickly.”
“… I’ll give it back to them right away.”
Baek Cheon shook his head and turned away. ‘What’s going to happen to the Ice Clan?’
It was Baek Cheon, who suddenly felt uncomfortable due to concerns about the Ice Clan.
That evening.
“Are you done with the other preparations?”
“What is there to prepare? All we have to do is move our body.”
“Body…….”
Baek Cheon nodded as he looked at Mount Hua’s disciples who had gathered. Thanks to the effectiveness of the Gongchong Elixir, everyone was almost healed from the aftermath of their injury.
‘That body is the problem…..’
Baek Cheon coughed loudly and turned his head to look at Tang So-so.
“So-so.”
“Yes, Sasuk.”
“Can we leave tomorrow?”
“Hmm.”
Tang So-so checked the bodies of her Sahyung with a hawk-like gaze. After a moment of tension, her mouth opened.
“I don’t think it’s perfect yet, but it should be enough. Yes, let’s leave tomorrow.”
As soon as the words were over, a sigh of relief burst out from everyone’s mouths.
“Finally!”
“I thought I was going to die of stinging pain.”
Everyone wanted to leave the Ice Clan and immediately run to Mount Hua. It wasn’t because they didn’t like Ice Clan. It’s just that it’s been so long since they left Mount Hua.
They, who should’ve already been leaving for Mount Hua a few days before, were overwhelmed by Tang So-so’s momentum, who turned over his eyes with a needle.
– What? You’re going through this cold snow with that crappy condition? Do these guys think their injury is a joke? Why? Would you like to put a needle in the top of your head right now? I think that’s safer. If you get injured on the way and die, why don’t you die here instead? Wouldn’t that make it easier to make a tomb? Even Yoo Iseol, who was in a cold sweat, couldn’t refute the argument. This is why in the end, they need Tang So-so’s permission to leave for Mount Hua.
“Yoon Jong, tell the Ice Clan that we are leaving tomorrow.”
“Yes, Sasuk.”
“And….”
Baek Cheon, who was about to say something, suddenly realized something strange and tilted his head.
“Chung Myung, where’s that bastard going again?”
Then Jo-Gol sighed and looked up at the ceiling. Baek Cheon looked at him and said.
“I will praise your acting ability to express that ‘I know, but I can’t talk even if I die’ with your whole body. So just tell me.”
“……Well, that bastard said that Seol Chonsang must have had his fortune hidden elsewhere… So he’d going to look for it…….”
“… At this late night?”
“Yes.”
“Wearing night suit?”
“…Yes.”
“Again?”
“…….”
As if his soul were escaping, Baek Cheon’s face quickly lost its vitality.
‘Please do it in moderation, Chung Myung. Please. Please!’
“No, even if that bastard is openly seeking Seol Chonsang’s wealth, it’s not something anyone in the Ice Clan can complain about! Why is he wearing the night suit again!”
“…… He said he feels at ease when he wears it.”
“Who’s going to be responsible for my burning heart! Who!”
“Why are you telling us that…….”
Baek Cheon turned his head.
No matter how angry he is, he can’t show his tears to his Sajils.
“… I’d rather have him get caught. Then the people of the North Sea will know how he really is.”
“First of all, putting aside whether he will get caught, it seems like they’ll just him go if he do get caught.”
“Why?”
“Now in the North Sea, Chung Myung is almost like a Buddha.”
“A- Amitabha! What nonsense is that?”
“No, I don’t mean it literally. But it is similar. Maybe it’s because they don’t believe Buddha in the North Sea.”
“A- Amitabha! Amitabha! This wicked thought! Amitabha!”
Hye Yeon, who panicked as if he had heard something that should never have happened, chanted repeatedly.
“So-so.”
“Yes, Sasuk.”
“Give me some stomach medicine ……….”
“Yes, I made it as soon as I couldn’t see Chung Myung Sahyung. I’ll take care of it.”
“…Thank you.”
Baek Cheon sighed deeply, raised his head and looked at everyone. His expression was quite serious.
“It just so happens that Chung Myung isn’t here, and we have to leave for Mount Hua soon, so let’s get to a few points.”
“Yes, Sasuk.”
“I think Chung Myung is hiding something from us about this.”
Mount Hua’s disciples didn’t respond much to Baek Cheon’s remarks. Baek Cheon asked again as he was a little perplexed by the unexpected response.
“… Do you all know everything?”
“…Sasuk.”
“Huh?”
“Sasuk tend to think that you are extraordinarily quick-witted.”
“…….”
“But if one knows better, Sasuk is actually quite slow-witted. If Sasuk knows it, it’s highly likely that everyone else already knows it.”
“…….”
‘Oh, really?’
When even Yoo Iseol nodded, Baek Cheon’s face turned red.
“W- Well. Anyway.”
Baek Cheon, who coughed loudly, continued.
“You all know Chung Myung. He’s the one who says what needs to be said. Still, if there’s something hidden from us, it means we’re not as reliable as he thinks we are yet.”
Right now, everyone knows what kind of person Chung Myung is.
Chung Myung is the one who tells them what they need to know even though they didn’t ask and doesn’t tell them what they don’t need to know no matter how much they ask.
That’s why Mount Hua’s disciples didn’t pry into what had happened in the cave.
“Magyo was terrible.”
“…….”
“And there is no guarantee that we won’t be facing them again in the future. One day, we may have to deal with a real force of Magyo.”
Baek Cheon’s serious eyes lit up.
“So we have to be stronger.”
His eyes were a little stronger than when he was fighting against Magyo.
“This time, most of the work was done by Chung Myung. We were all about chasing his ass.
It’s not something to be satisfied with when we are only just a few steps further from him. I won’t be content with just barely catching up behind him!”
“That’s the same for me.”
“A disgraceful thing.”
Everyone agreed and nodded in unison. Back Cheon said in a determined voice, looking back at his Sahyungs.
“I don’t speak too long. The enemy is as powerful as ever, and there is a long way to go. Let’s try harder on our own to avoid falling behind.”
“Yes, Sasuk!”
“Okay, Sahyung.”
Back Cheon smiled involuntarily at the firm answer that came back.
‘But….’
‘Why is the monk nodding his head there?’
‘I said it to my Sahyungs…..’
“Amitabha.”
With Hye Yeon’s low chant, snow began to flutter outside the window.
* * * “Oh, it’s cold. Why is it snowing all of a sudden?”
Chung Myung, who sat on the roof and complaining, pressed Baek-ah’s back as he dug into his clothes.
“No, aren’t this your natural place?”
‘You’ve got some balls, huh? You’re going to go crazy.’
“Tsk.”
As he clicked his tongue briefly, he pulled out the bottle cap he had brought. And he sipped the alcohol while looking at the fluttering snow.
A strong drink warmed his stomach and went down the esophagus. The scent filled his nose and mouth.
“It’s spectacular.”
The North Sea from the highest point of the fortress was simply a magnificent view. With snow added to it, a landscape that seemed not to belong to this world was unfolded.
“The North Sea…”
Chung Myung smirked while looking at the scenery.
“Sahyung, that’s why people live long and have something to see.”
He has never come here in his previous life. Therefore, there was no reason not to put this world in his eyes.
If it were a world without Magyo and war…… Perhaps he and his Sahyung ended their lives while touring the world in search of such a scenic place.
“Now that I’m living again, I’ve seen things like this…….”
Chung Myung looked up at the sky with a slightly subdued eye.
Sometimes, being born again alone and enjoying this world was a sin. Of course, his second life is not that comfortable. But aren’t doing the things that cause trouble and bully the young Mount Hua’s disciples something that can only be done if he’s alive?
He was given a chance, but his other Sahyung didn’t even have that chance.
It’s just…
He picked up the bottle and took another sip. And disperse the thought.
‘It’s not time to be sentimental.’
He has always been worried.
Why did this happen? Why did he alone get a second life unlike other Sahyung?
He doesn’t know the exact reason yet, but he knows at least one thing.
“Heavenly Demon…….”
Chung Myung’s hand, which held the bottle, gained strength.
– He’s already…….
“I know.”
He was avoiding it consciously, but now he can’t turn a blind eye anymore. The failed Bishop’s plan eventually solidified the anxiety that Chung Myung had been harboring all along into a clear crisis.
Heavenly Demon lives somewhere in this world.
For sure.
The thought made his whole body tense and his teeth twisted.
But he forced himself to suppress his rising anger. He had no choice but to.
‘All I have to do is…….’
This time, he has to protect Mount Hua with his own hands.
“Nothing is certain yet.”
Even if it is Heavenly Demon, it will be impossible to regain one’s old strength as soon as he returns to life.
Perhaps he is regaining his strength at this very moment, or as Chung Myung had lived as a Chosam for several years before he woke up again, he is also asleep living in the consciousness of others.
It is unclear whether he will go through the same process as Chung Myung or return to the world differently.
Just one thing.
‘He will surely try to devour the world once again.’
Anyone who has experienced that horrible pure malice with their eyes and body will feel the same way.
The world will be covered with fear again, and blood and death will be rampant again.
“Not this time, you f*cking bastard.”
‘I will never lose Mount Hua again.’
Therefore, he will keep their future from being cut off.
After grinding his teeth, Chung Myung slowly lowered his head and looked at the room where the disciples were staying.
‘Not slow, but never urgent.’
All he has to do is not fight everything for Mount Hua as before. It’s all about protecting Mount Hua.
He can do anything to do that.
“Don’t worry, Sahyung.”
Chung Myung raised the bottle in his hand high into the sky.
“I’ll protect you this time!”
The sky of the North Sea, where the snow is scattered.
It seemed like Cheon Mun was smiling at him.
