Who threatened to call me Cheonmahara with a knife? Episode 189

Nancheonhoe (1)

While Ichimoku was shivering as he realized the truth, Dambin added.

“During the time when Paedocheonma was active, the term Gupaebang did not exist. After the Gongdongpa collapsed, some of the descendants of the Gongdongpa survived and established Taoist sects throughout the Central Plains. Some of them grew into large sects over a long period of time, and the current name Gupaebang was established.”

It was said that the Gongdongpa was the founder of several Taoist sects.

Only then could I realize it.

‘It’s really brave of you to have made it to Xinjiang alive.’

If some of the sects that the descendants of the Gongdongpa opened belong to the Gupailbang, their resentment towards the Demonic Cult would be at an unimaginable level.

It felt like a miracle that the Demonic Cult had not been completely uprooted and had spread to Xinjiang.

“Do you know where the descendants of the old gang of Gungpyeongpa opened their own gang?”

“There was Hwasan and Cheongseong, and Jeomchang and Kunlunpa. Kunlun is no longer there, but has given way to Haenam.”

“… How did Kunlun disappear again?”

Ilmok asked that question with an inexplicable sense of foreboding.

“Do you remember the history of the old Heavenly Demon Lord, Bloody Heavenly Demon?”

At Dam-bin’s answer, Ilmok closed his eyes tightly.

Blood Tears Heavenly Demon (血淚天魔) was one of the names I memorized by heart when I was a student preparing for the entrance exam to the Magic Academy. Even more so because it was similar to the nickname of Blood Rain Heavenly Demon, one of the five great Heavenly Demons.

Blood Tears Heavenly Demon is a person from about 160 years ago. He was the Heavenly Demon after the Heavenly Demon Sect was driven out to Xinjiang, and he was the Heavenly Demon of the previous generation.

In addition, it was Tianma who first attempted to return to the Central Plains after being driven out to Xinjiang.

In the end, when that attempt ended in failure, he was also called the Bloody Heavenly Horse due to his history of shedding tears of blood.

The next great Heavenly Horse and the previous Heavenly Horse also attempted to invade the Central Plains, but after that attempt also ended in failure, the Heavenly Horse Sect entered a long period of darkness for several decades.

As the Heavenly Horse who had mastered the Heavenly Horse Singong could not be born for a long time, the leader of the sect changed several times, from a few years at the shortest to a dozen years at the longest. Finally, the current Heavenly Horse, Hyukryun Il-hwi, ascended to the position of leader, signaling the end of the dark age.

And the current Cheonma Hyukryun Ilhwi, who learned from the failures of the previous and previous generations, was only focusing on strengthening their internal structure and was not rashly trying to conquer the Central Plains.

Even as he was reviewing the history he had learned, Dam-bin continued speaking.

“After the Bloody Heavenly Demon destroyed the Kunlun Sect, he advanced, but the cowards of the Sacheon Castle had all fled. And those vile men lured others under the name of the ‘Wulin Alliance’ and set the Bloody Heavenly Demon into a trap.”

By chance, I got to hear the secret story of the birth of the Murim Alliance.

As Ilmok closed his eyes tightly, Dambin offered words of comfort.

“But don’t worry, Confucius. The Blood-Luo Heavenly Demon remembered the events of the Paedo Heavenly Demon and the Gongdong Sect, so unlike the Gongdong Sect, he wiped out the Kunlun Sect without leaving even a single root behind.”

This story could not help but be truly comforting.

Ichimoku, who realized once again how crazy the group he belonged to was, pressed his throbbing temple with his thumb and said.

“I understand why the Sapa sect can run rampant in a place with so many saints, so tell me a little more about that place called Nancheonhoe or something.”

The question was answered by the sage.

“To put it simply, they are trash who suck the blood of living beings.”

As he spoke, Buntaju opened a book and pointed to a few sentences with his finger.

“As you can see, the Red Cross has discovered that they were forcibly buying women at high interest rates and sending them to Nancheonhoe in lieu of the bribes. In addition, after investigating other nearby counties, similar circumstances were discovered in several counties.”

“So, are you saying that just like the Red Guards, you also received money and women as bribes from other black bands in the nearby provinces?”

“Yes. Some of them are selling their bodies in brothels managed by the Nancheonhoe, and some of them seem to have been sold somewhere else.”

At the explanation of the division, Ichimoku’s face crumpled, and a strong murderous look appeared on the faces of those who were listening to the story together.

‘There are no such thing as crazy kids.’

A force that leads human trafficking.

The Red Ark’s excuse may have been nothing more than an excuse, but one thing was certain.

As long as the Nanquanhui existed, human trafficking could not disappear within Gansu Province.

At that moment, I felt someone’s urgent footsteps outside the door.

“Come in.”

As soon as the order was given, a man from Goranghyeon Bunta came in and shouted.

“The Nancheonhoe guys have appeared.”

“Nancheonhoe?”

“Yes, Confucius. They are the ones who often visit this Gorang County and hang around Jeoksabang. This time, they are moving towards Jeoksabang’s estate.”

By the time the unmanned explanation was finished, a mask had been placed over Ichimoku’s face.

A mask with an angry face that resembles the Four Heavenly Kings.

* * *

The area around the manor of the enemy’s house, which has been giving off an atmosphere like an abandoned house in just a few days.

“The enemy base collapsed?”

Three men dressed in blue uniforms were questioning the residents of Goranghyeon while holding knives to their necks.

“Who did this?”

The man, his face turned pale, was completely frozen and could not open his mouth.

“I guess we need an example.”

As the Nancheonhoe warrior muttered and swung his sword to cut off the man’s arm, the woman who was standing next to him shouted urgently.

“Oh, you are the incarnation of Maitreya!”

“An incarnation of Maitreya?”

The expressions of the men from Nancheonhoe were strangely distorted at the unheard name.

“Who is that?”

The woman was left speechless by the man’s question while still pointing the knife at her husband.

She also only knew about it through rumors spread around Goranghyeon, and had no idea who the incarnation of Maitreya was.

In a dangerous situation where her husband’s head could be cut off, the wife’s eyes quickly scanned her surroundings.

With a last hope that someone might help them, that maybe someone knew who the incarnation of Maitreya was.

And at some point, her eyes seemed to be fixed on something.

“It’s me!”

There, standing, was the man in black wearing an angry mask that I had only heard of through rumors.

The trio, who had taken their swords from the villagers, turned their gazes toward the man.

“Are you the guy who destroyed the enemy base?”

At the sight of Ilmok’s bizarre appearance, the three members of the Nancheonhoe spoke with a bitter smile on their lips.

“I guess you haven’t heard anything about us from the Red Ark.”

“I heard.”

“Oh. You knew it and still did it.”

“Anyway, what Nancheonhoe wants is the amount of the bribe, not who sends the bribe.”

“Hahahaha. You know very well.”

“So, are you saying that you will manage this Gorang-hyeon area in place of the enemy?”

In response to their questions, Ilmok nodded and pointed to the enemy’s quarters with his chin.

“How about we talk about the details inside?”

Ilmok walked towards the garden with confident steps and sent out a signal at the same time.

– Get back while they follow me.

Towards the couple who were being threatened by the Nancheonhoe’s unmanned personnel.

The three members of the Nancheonhoe approached Ilmok without much suspicion, while the couple cautiously stepped back, keeping an eye on things.

And the moment they came within striking distance, a silvery trail was woven into the air.

The trajectory crossed the neck of the man walking in front.

Crunch.

A delayed cutting sound rang out, and the man’s head was severed from his neck and fell to the floor.

Crunch!

The sword of Ichimoku was stuck in the heart of the man who was drawing the sword late.

“I, am I not afraid of the name of Nancheonhoe?”

The man who had barely managed to draw his sword while his two comrades were dying shouted in shock.

The confidence he had had just a moment ago was gone, and he was just shouting out the name of the group he belonged to.

“I don’t know why you’re talking nonsense.”

Ilmok approached the man and answered with an indifferent expression.

“If you were afraid, do you think you would have done something like this?”

The man, realizing that threats were not working, suddenly swung his sword at Ichimoku.

However, the sword of the angry masked man, rather than his sword that was swung first, pierced his heart first.

“Ugh… .”

Immediately after the man with his heart pierced collapsed, groaning in pain.

“I’m sorry, incarnation of Maitreya!!”

Suddenly, a voice of someone confessing his sins was heard from behind.

When Ilmok turned around and looked behind him, he saw a woman kneeling on the floor and bowing. Towards Ilmok.

It was the woman who had been threatened by the Nancheonhoe’s unmanned forces a little while ago.

“I dare not believe and have defiled your name! Please punish me, but spare my husband!”

She was confessing her sins to the warriors of Nancheonhoe for revealing the name of Maitreya incarnation.

At first, she tried to save her husband by talking, but she also knew what happened at the last meeting.

The husband, who had only then realized his wife’s intentions, also quickly knelt down with his face still pale.

“It happened because of me, incarnation! Kill me and save my wife!”

Ilmok thought. What a ridiculous world this is.

Even though he did it under duress with a knife pointed at his neck, he had to confess his sins while trembling like that.

“Continue to do so. If anyone asks, tell them that the incarnation of Maitreya did so.”

The couple looked up at Ilmok with faces that showed they did not understand his answer.

“Willingly sell my name to the evildoers who seek me. Since Maitreya protects me, I am a body that will not die to the evildoers. Also, tell my name to those who seek salvation. Maitreya’s incarnation will destroy all evil.”

I paused for a moment at the unexpected answer.

The couple bowed again to the incarnation of Maitreya and shouted.

“Go, thank you!!”

“I will definitely let everyone know about the greatness of Maitreya!”

When they finished bowing and raised their heads, there were only three corpses left in front of them.

After finishing work quickly, Ilmok returned to Bunta with Dambin.

To avoid having their identities exposed, Ichimoku alone fought while wearing a mask. She was also waiting in hiding nearby, just in case.

“What do you plan to do now, Your Majesty?”

To Dam-bin’s question, Ilmok answered while taking off the mask he was wearing.

“Of course I should do the Nancheonhoe, right?”

After saying that, Ichimoku turned his head and spoke to Buntaju.

“Have you settled the money you recovered from the enemy base?”

“It’s almost sorted out, Your Majesty.”

“If you do, distribute the money to the residents and send the work to the headquarters as we discussed, but also send a letter along with it.”

“If it is a letter, what letter do you mean?”

“You just have to tell them to send someone to Nanju.”

Jin Ha-yeon, who was listening to their conversation, asked.

“Are you planning to hold a Nancheonhoe after the reinforcements arrive?”

At her question, Ichimoku shook his head.

“It takes more than a day or two to go back and forth from here to the headquarters, so how can we wait for that?”

Everyone who was listening to the conversation had a puzzled expression on their face.

“Then why are you calling for reinforcements?”

“I don’t need reinforcements. After I sort out the Nancheonhoe, I just need people to manage Nanju and Gansu Province.”

Ilmok said, looking towards the southeast where Nanju was located.

“The Nancheonhoe is being held tonight.”

Originally, a surprise attack was something that shined when the opponent was completely unaware of it.
