Chapter 433
Episode 433:
It’s an unknown place.
The whole place was filled with chill. Every time I took a step, pure white snow blew in the wind. It is a land of northern wind and cold snow, where your entire body will freeze if you lose your mind even for a moment.
The person walking there was an old man.
Even though I wasn’t wearing any special winter clothes, I didn’t seem to have any problems walking in this cold place.
Is this cold wave nothing to him?
The old man took in the sight of pure white everywhere.
In fact, the snow was blowing so hard that it was hard to see even an inch ahead, but the old man’s eyes were sparkling as if he was searching and looking at various places.
It feels like a hawk looking for its prey.
Then, as if I suddenly realized something, I looked south.
“Umm… did I fail?”
It felt like a thread in my heart had been broken. It means the death of someone who is connected to him. The old man licked his lips and shook his head.
“I lost my precious child…” When I thought about the time and money it took to raise such a child, I
felt very sad. But even that was short-lived.
The old man returned to his normal expression and walked down the street again. As I walked along, feeling like I was taking a leisurely stroll, I thought, ‘Evil!’ With a sound, someone appeared.
“Who said?!”
Was there someone guarding this place?
A man appeared holding a spear and shouted.
But I couldn’t finish speaking. At some point, the man’s head fell to the floor. The blood pouring from the neck soaked the surrounding area.
“Oh my surprise. “It shouldn’t suddenly pop out like that.”
What happened?
The old man shook his head, shaking off his bloody hands. It only lasted a moment, but the outstretched hand cut off the man’s head.
Movements that are truly like lightning.
I didn’t think anyone could imitate this.
The old man clicked his tongue and looked around again.
Presences were felt everywhere.
“Are we almost there?”
The signs were approaching quickly, perhaps foreshadowing the man’s death.
He was full of nervous energy, as if he was on guard.
It’s not just one or two people.
I thought there could be dozens of people. Considering that most of them were experts, it felt like this fight would not be easy.
“Wow, it’s quite fancy for welcoming Nobu.”
“Who dares commit evil in this land of the North Sea?”
Someone’s voice rang out in the distance.
North Sea.
Yes, this is where the Emperor of the North Sea and the Ice Palace are located.
These are a clan that has protected this land for a very long time, and they are not pushed back an inch even when compared to those who are commonly called the eight major powers in the central plains.
By nature, just encountering them should have made you overcome with fear, but the old man’s expression was filled with great composure.
“I came here for a moment because I have something to take….”
“Something to take? “There is nothing in the Ice Palace for someone like you to take!”
The old man paused for a moment at the man’s words.
“Hmm,” he stroked his long, white beard and chuckled.
A smile that can only be thought of as an obvious mockery.
The old man, who gave a look that seemed as if he could chew up the opponent’s strength, lightly relaxed his hands and opened his mouth.
“Don’t lie. Isn’t it there? Perennial ice crystals….”
The old man’s words made the men think.
Yeo Eun-wol slowly opened her eyes.
The pain I felt from my back
shook my head. When I opened my eyes and groaned involuntarily due to the extreme pain, I saw a familiar face.
“miss’?”
“Aaaah!”
The moment Dan So-mi saw Yeo Eun-wol open her eyes, she burst into tears.
As he had been sleeping soundly without opening his eyes for three days, Dan So-mi, who was by his side, was overcome by anxiety.
Yeo Eun-wol opened her eyes like that.
From Dan So-mi’s point of view, it could be said to be truly dramatic. How amazing is that joy? He hugged her carefully and soothed his heart.
“I was sleeping for three days.”
“Now… Master Jang…”
Yeo Eun-wol was startled by the voice being heard again.
The moment I turned my gaze, I saw Dan Woo-hyeon.
She was startled without realizing it and tried to stand up, but her body did not move easily and only the pain tormented Yeo Eun-wol.
“There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong.”
“…Miss, are you okay?”
“Yes, thanks to that I didn’t get hurt at all.”
“I’m not the problem! “You’re the problem!”
“Ahaha….”
Yeo Eun-wol smiled awkwardly. As I looked at Dan So-mi’s face worried about me, I shed tears for no reason. Without realizing it, I reached out to wipe it away.
“uh…?”
The texture was strange.
Can’t be touched.
The rough skin that had grown up in an ugly way.
Out of confusion, I slowly stammered and touched my face. There was still no feeling like in the past; rather, only a smooth and white feeling remained at the fingertips.
“This….”
“This is my reward for saving Somi. “You’re prettier than I thought.”
Dan Woo-hyeon smiled. He used his energy to heal me. It was something he didn’t think about at first, but since he sacrificed his life to save Dansomi, he definitely needed a return in return.
Dan Woo-hyeon gave her the greatest gift he could.
Yeo Eun-wol shed tears.
Every time I burst out crying, pain came, but the joy was greater than the pain, so I couldn’t help but cry.
“Thank you… thank you.”
“Okay, if you understand, take a break.”
Dan Woo-hyeon stood up from his seat.
Not wanting to disturb the two children, I left the crying children and went out the door. Loud crying sounds rang out from behind again.
As Yeo Eun-wol cried, Dan So-mi also seemed to start crying again.
Hearing that sound, Dan Woo-hyeon headed to another place.
The place he is heading to is quite far from where Dansomi is staying. We stayed in a small pavilion next to the outbuilding, but it was no one using it now.
When I finally approached and opened the door, a musty smell wafted out.
The smell of medicinal herbs was everywhere. The floor was full of bloody debris, and it was none other than the blood flowing from the man’s body.
“Still not up?”
“Yes, I haven’t come to my senses yet.”
Jang Sam-tae frowned as he gathered up the cloths he had wiped off the blood with. Although I had been taking care of him for three days already, he never seemed to wake up.
His breathing was so weak that it seemed like he was going to die like this, but what was even more terrifying than that was the trace of the knife that had pierced his chest.
Jang Sam-tae has never seen such a perfect pipe trade.
Normally, if you were stabbed in this way, you should have died. I don’t know what tricks Dan Woo-hyeon used, but the fact that he was saved was nothing short of a miracle.
“Stay out.”
Jang Sam-tae nodded at Dan Woo-hyeon’s words.
Even if the two of them remain, nothing will happen. Even if it happened, it would be nothing more than a death for everyone.
Jang Sam-tae shrugged his shoulders, gathered up everything he had, and left.
“Hmm…”
Dan Woo-hyeon turned his gaze towards Bi Cheon-woong, who was lying still.
Feels like I’m sleeping soundly.
As Jang Sam-tae said, the sound of breathing is also weak. It wouldn’t be strange if it broke at any time, so it was practically a half-corpse.
“The ban has been lifted. Most people have been cured, so they won’t die. So, solve the Great Law of Eccentricity.”
Dan Woo-hyeon spoke and brought a chair and sat down next to the bed. When I heard his whispering words, Bicheonwoong’s eyes, which seemed like they would never open them, slowly began to open.
“…Is it you? “What saved me?”
“okay.”
Bi Cheon-woong still looked at Dan Woo-hyeon with disbelief.
The blade that pierced his chest was covered in terrible poison. Also, the situation was so complete that there was no hope of survival, so I had even given up on my own life.
“It seems like I really have a lot to live for…” Bicheonwoong slowly checked his physical condition. The reason I didn’t have even a handful of strength left was because I had used all my strength, and the pain I felt in my chest was due to the wound caused by the blade.
His body could not move easily, partly because he had been lying down for a long time, but he also seemed to be mentally and physically exhausted from the intense fight.
“Is this yours?”
At that time, Dan Woo-hyeon showed a blade from his arms. It is definitely the sword of Bicheonwoong that Yeo Eun-wol sold.
Why is it in a place like this?
Bicheonwoong opened his eyes wide.
“I guess that’s right.”
The moment he confirmed it, Dan Woo-hyeon
was convinced.
Then he stretched out his hand.
I grabbed the neck of Bicheonwoong, who was sucked in in an instant.
“Kukkkeok!”
“Was it Emperor Tian Wu’s dog?”
“Kukkeokkuk!”
“It’s also the reason I saved you. Tell me. “Is this really Emperor Tian Wu’s dog?”
Dan Woo-hyeon’s sharp blue eyes shone fiercely.
It was so sharp that it would not be an exaggeration to say that it could catch and kill a person with just its eyes, and its lethal force was like piercing the entire body with an awl.
Bicheonwoong struggled and tried to somehow escape from its grasp.
But it’s not easy.
Dan Woo-hyeon’s grip strength is enough to easily break even steel.
At best, you can shatter a human bone just by grabbing it.
“Is that so…”
“Did you try to kill Somi?”
Bi Cheon-woong did not dare to lie. Dan Woo-hyeon saved the life of someone who was already dead.
Because I know the reason, I also know that even if I were to die right here and now, no one would be sad.
Dan Woo-hyeon, who saw him slightly nodding his head, slapped him roughly on the bed.
“Oops!”
“I won’t kill you. “It’s also true that Somi didn’t die because of you.”
Dan Woo-hyeon looked at Bi Cheon-woong, who was rolling around in bed, with a cold gaze. Although Bi Cheonung knew that the order he received was to kill Dansomi, he ultimately swung his sword to protect Dansomi.
“Where is he?”
“Ah… you know… I don’t know.”
Dan Woo-hyeon lightly held out his hand. When they hit Bicheonwoong, who was seriously injured, in the abdomen, he couldn’t even breathe properly and collapsed. Soon, I was out of breath to the point where my face turned red.
“What is your purpose?”
“A million…”
“Why did you create the martial arts scriptures?”
a Ha
******
“Why did you try to retrieve it?” Bicheonwoong could not answer anything. Questions were asked one after another, but since I was a puppet who did not know the answers, I could not even say anything.
What he does is nothing more than receiving and following orders. I didn’t try to know the meaning behind it, nor did I want to know it.
Dan Woo-hyeon, who had been asking questions for a while, frowned.
I don’t get the answer I want.
This means that either Bi Cheon-woong knows nothing or has overwhelming loyalty to Emperor Cheon-mu.
Dan Woo-hyeon released his hands and grabbed his head.
“Think carefully before answering.”
Bicheonwoong’s body was trembling.
