‘In the end, the left and right are the problem.’
Cheonma, who was entrusted with this mission, had spoken.
The secret monks of Podalap Palace are said to boast of their high internal energy through the art of burial.
But, there was no mention of them committing such ugly acts.
In other words, as the old woman and others said, it was a religion that was running fairly well until a few years ago.
While Ilmok was gathering his thoughts, the two esoteric monks opened their mouths with mean looks in their eyes.
“We, we too, just followed orders to survive.”
“Oh, as I said before, all of those who rebelled were killed by the Left and Right Dae-deok.”
They remembered the scene where they saved the lives of the villagers.
When he heard that the girl had to be sacrificed because of the orders of the Podalap Palace, the man showed mercy.
‘Well, so us too.’
‘Yeah, I guess I can live.’
They were the ones who begged for their lives, remembering such hopes.
What came back was a cold gaze.
“That’s funny. You guys, you all knew that, right?”
“Oh, you knew that? What, what do you mean?”
“The disappeared Dalai Lama, the cruel nature of the left and right great virtues, and the changed methods of the Potala Palace. You know that, don’t you? The Dalai Lama, who was said to have entered the wall, is already a guest who will never return.”
“We, we don’t know, don’t know anything.”
“He just did what he was told to do to survive.”
At their begging, one corner of Ichimoku’s mouth went up. However, Ichimoku’s eyes were utterly indifferent.
“You guys are just like the Left and Right. You are a bunch of filthy bastards who are drunk on pleasure and power and have crossed the line that should not be crossed.”
They writhed in agony, begging for their lives at the first sign of the sentence.
Then, something strange happened.
As they moved violently, a red line was drawn on their necks, and then a stinging pain came belatedly.
Their eyes were filled with frustration, fear, and anger at the uncanny phenomenon.
But they couldn’t do anything.
Because their faces were already free from the restraints of their necks and were falling to the floor.
Bam.

Hyukryun Cheon-gang, who had been indifferently looking at the two corpses with blood still gushing out, soon turned his head and looked at Il-mok.
“It seems like too comfortable an end for the worms to enjoy.”
“All we have to do is punish the wicked. Is there really a need to become a monster like them?”
“Hmm.”
After a moment of stroking his own beard with a thoughtful expression on his face, Hyukryun Cheon-gang asked Ilmok again.
“So, what are your plans now? It seems like the investigation into the Podalrap Palace is going well.”
“I think I’ll go straight to Podalrap Palace.”
At this unconventional answer, the five members of the Hyukryun Sega family who had come with Hyukryun Cheon Gang looked at him with surprised expressions.
However, those who had been with Ichimoku for a long time were not particularly surprised.
“Hmm. Are you planning to use the surprise attack method?”
To Hyukryeoncheonggang’s question, Ilmok answered.
“Yes.”
“It could cause quite a bit of damage. In the worst case scenario, you could die.”
“This is the best we can do. Since we have already killed them, if we buy time, wouldn’t the news reach the Podalap Palace?”
“Instead, we can also prepare for it. For example, we can send a message to the headquarters to call for reinforcements.”
Ilmok shook his head.
“It’s a handshake. No matter how chaotic the Central Plains are, if the new religion moves on a large scale, there is a risk of being caught. And above all.”
Ilmok paused for a moment and looked at Hyukryuncheon River.
He had accompanied me almost without saying a word until we came here, but now he was coming here to spit out his opinions in a stern manner, as if warning me.
“While we are wasting time, more girls will be taken away.”
However, Hyukryuncheon-gang was also a very old man who could not cower at the sight of Ilmok.
“Hmm. For a conductor to say that, it seems a bit emotional.”
“Do you want a rational answer? Then I will give you the same answer. More girls will be taken away. And as a result, the internal energy of the esoteric monks will also become stronger. But this is only a secondary issue.”
“If so, what is the fundamental problem?”
As Ilmok and Hyukruncheon-gang faced each other as if they were having a staring contest, the group also split into two groups.
The servants of Ilmok approached Ilmok, and the warriors from Hyukryun Sega stood behind Hyukryun Cheongang.
In a tense atmosphere, Ilmok answered Hyukryeon Cheon-gang.
“The fundamental problem is that we are the Cheonma Sect. Since when did our sect start considering evildoers and their chances of success?”
Hyukryun Cheon-gang, who had been staring into Ilmok’s eyes as if trying to see into Ilmok’s inner thoughts, immediately burst into laughter.
“It’s exactly as you said. That’s what a new religion’s Mine should do. Hahahaha.”
Ichimoku felt a chill at the sudden change in the old man’s attitude.
‘Are you going crazy?’
I thought I should look for an empty spot in Mangaryeong.
* * *
Ilmok and his group left Andahyeon and headed to Podalap Palace.
While riding a horse to travel a distance of at least several hundred li.
Jeong-Hyeon opened his mouth carefully.
“Ha, Senior Ha-yeon. Actually, there’s something I don’t understand. Ha, I’d like to ask you one thing.”
“Ask comfortably.”
After being together for three years, they had become quite comfortable with each other.
Because of the side effects, Jeong-Hyeon had a hard time with others approaching him, and Jin-Ha-Yeon had a businesslike personality that sharply distinguished between work and private life.
Jin Ha-yeon’s unique coldness may be uncomfortable for some, but for Jeong Hyeon, that appropriate distance felt comfortable.
“I understand that Po, Podalap Palace was corrupted by those left and right Daedeoks, but I don’t understand why they continue to remain as the left and right Daedeoks.”
At Jeong-Hyeon’s question, Jin Ha-Yeon frowned at her pretty face.
I only thought about punishing the evildoers of Podalap Palace according to the order of Ilmok. That’s because I never thought about that part.
But after listening to Jeong-Hyeon, it seemed like there was something strange about the situation.
Even after killing the Dalai Lama, he has been lying about being alive instead of taking his place.
If it was a position determined by bloodline, like the throne or the king, then it would be understandable. There was no reason to leave that position vacant, even after killing all the rebels.
Those who had been listening to their conversation from the surroundings also realized the truth only then and each became lost in thought.
While everyone was having a hard time coming up with an answer, Ichimoku slowly opened his mouth.
“Miss Jin, Miss Jeong. Is it okay if I answer on your behalf?”
“I’m fine.”
“Three, three, I will listen carefully.”
“First of all, my inference is just my guess and not certain, so you don’t have to believe it unconditionally.”
First, Ilmok laid out some groundwork and then explained his reasoning.
“It is probably greed and distrust that they left the position of Dalai Lama vacant.”
“Are you talking about greed and distrust?”
Jin Ha-yeon asked back with an expression of incomprehension. She was the only one who opened her mouth. The others also had expressions of bewilderment.
“They are the ones who killed the Dalai Lama, a member of the Buddhist order and the most senior member of the Potala Palace, simply because of their greed for military achievements and power. How great must their greed be? And those who are greedy are usually also very distrustful. Humans naturally tend to compare themselves to others.”
“I know they are greedy. But if they are greedy, then why leave the Dalai Lama’s position alone?”
When Jin Ha-yeon asked back as if she didn’t understand, Ilmok smiled faintly and answered.
“That’s true, but there’s one problem with that.”
“What is the problem?”
“The problem is that there is one seat and two people.”
At Ichimoku’s words, only then did those who had been listening to the conversation around them let out a faint exclamation of admiration, with expressions of realization.
In the meantime, only Jin Ha-yeon was making an expression of incomprehension.
“Even if one person ascends to the Dalai Lama, wouldn’t it be enough to share the power? Or, there is also the option of taking turns.”
The reason Jin Ha-yeon alone could not understand them was simple. From her cool-headed standpoint, there was clearly a logical solution.
However, most people are not so cool-headed.
Knowing that fact, Ichimoku wanted to tell her the answer.
“Hahaha. If you think about it calmly, that would be a method, but they don’t trust their opponents. If the position of Dalai Lama is taken by the opponents first, they won’t leave them alone.”
“But aren’t they twins?”
“Miss Jin. There are too many cases in this world where people blinded by greed have abandoned natural principles.”
At Ichimoku’s last words, the group each had a thoughtful expression on their face.
Among them, Hyukryuncheon Gang was also included, but it was not a place that recalled the appreciation of the teachings of Ilmok.
‘Hmm.’
He was looking back on the sights he had seen during this journey.
The youngest prince was an unusual man in many ways.
In fact, during his journey to the West, he wondered if he might need to change his judgment about the eight Confuciuses a little.
Although he is praised as a genius within the church, he seemed a bit lazy.
However, his actions in Andahyeon exceeded his expectations in many ways.
‘There was no doubt about his talent for martial arts.’
The level of the esoteric monks that Ilmok encountered was not that great. When viewed from the perspective of Hyukryeoncheon Gang.
However, regardless of the opponent’s level, the sword drawn by Ichimoku alone caught his attention.
It wasn’t a particularly impressive feat, but it was a movement that was so simple and clean it was creepy.
In addition, when he used the technique he used to subdue his opponent at the end, for some reason, the shadow of the current Cheonma was even glimpsed.
Moreover, that was not the only extraordinary thing that the youngest prince showed.
‘I was careful, but once I made my decision, I didn’t hesitate.’
It was the same when he saved the girl from the esoteric monks, and it was the same after he killed the esoteric monks.
First, I tried to have a conversation and checked if there was any mistake on my part.
When it became clear that the opponent was a villain, he took bold actions without even a hint of hesitation.
‘If it were Confucius, he would have just cut off the balls of those secret Buddhist monks without even asking.’
It was only Confucius who suffered from intermittent explosive disorder that was particularly severe. The majority of the Demonic Cult were like that.
Because it was such a cult, the youngest prince’s methods stood out even more.
However, the part that I liked the most about Hyukryuncheon River was the other side.
‘Haha. When it comes to punishing evildoers, the probability of success doesn’t matter.’
If you are a believer of the Cheonmasin Church, you should do so.
Hyukryeoncheon-gang was also just a test to test the youngest Confucius.
If Ilmok had been cautious in that situation or had decided to request reinforcements from the headquarters and retreat, Hyukryun Cheon-gang would have withdrawn his expectations of Ilmok without any hesitation.
His granddaughter, Hyukryun Seon-ah, would also never be allowed to come near Ilmok again.
Even though his granddaughter cried and clung to him, and even threatened to kill him.
‘Hehehe. It seems Seon-ah’s eyes are more outstanding than I thought.’
The man his granddaughter had chosen as her master seemed to be a more useful man than he had expected.
Well, he must have been such a great man that his granddaughter was so obsessed with him.
‘… To the point where I would throw this old man away.’
Hyukryuncheon River was not forgotten.
The moment he was testing his skills.
When Ilmok and Hyukryuncheon River were in opposition, the group was divided into two.
And Hyukryun Seon-ah, the granddaughter of Hyukryun Cheon-gang, approached Ilmok’s back without a moment’s hesitation.
‘Haha… They say raising children is useless.’
Feeling a cold sensation in his eyes, Hyukryun Cheon-gang raised his head slightly and looked at the blue sky.
He just doesn’t show it because he is so self-cultivated.
Hyukryeon Cheon-gang was also a great man who was not in a position to curse his son for not being able to sell his arms.
