62nd. The time has come to open a church.
The Milky Way’s Jang Joo Cheok Jin Kyung frowned.
They say that if the tail is long, it will get stepped on, and it seems that Jeongui Maeng has finally caught wind of it.
“How many came?”
“The Jeongeui Alliance’s members are twenty, and the warriors and monks of Luoyang are thirty-six.”
“Hmm, the military commander of Uigi-dae and Luoyang. Then, the military sword must have come too.”
“That’s right.”
Chuck Jin-kyung laughed heartily, wondering what was going on.
“There is something the cult leader said about twenty years ago. If the number of Baekdu Horse Army exceeds seven, there is no need to avoid fighting anymore. He probably had the Chilpai Clan in mind when he said that.”
The masters of the Milky Way held their breath and focused on Cheok Jin-gyeong’s mouth.
For the past twenty years, the famous sect has been hidden. However, the number of Baekdu Horse Army is seven, according to the leader of the sect. If it is as the sect leader says, it is now time to go out into the world.
“I’ll show them the fear of the famous religion. Get ready to welcome our guests.”
“Jeonmyeong!”
“All right!”
The four great deities and famous believers answered in unison.
Although their opponents were the Jeongui Alliance and the military officers of Luoyang, no one was afraid or scared.
***
In the afternoon, the Justice League’s contingent and the five military leaders gathered again at the spot where the body was found.
Ambassador Gong-baek and Yi-cheon-mun-ju Lee Yeon-ik, who had gone downstream, approached the leader of the Ui-gi-dae, Cheol-geum-gang Man-baek.
“Ambassador, there was nothing particularly notable downstream. What was upstream like?”
“If you go up the river about ten li (about 4 kilometers), there is a huge garden called Eunhajang. However, despite its size, there is nothing known about it. I think it is worth visiting and investigating at least once.”
Lee Yeon-ik glanced at the blank line.
“What do you think?”
“If there are any doubts, they should be cleared up.”
That means let’s go and see.
Lee Yeon-ik nodded toward Man-baek.
“Let’s check. Whether they have any ties to the famous religion or not.”
Soon, about fifty martial artists from the Jeongpa moved upstream in an orderly manner.
Did we walk for about 30 minutes?
A large manor appeared in the forest a fair distance from the river.
The three characters “Galaxy Jang” were written in bold font on the signboard at the main gate.
First, Heo Jae, a member of the medical team and a disciple of the medical school, knocked lightly on the door.
Bang. Bang. Bang.
I waited for a while, but there was no sound.
Jae Heo, who had been tilting his head, opened the front door slightly.
Squeak.
I thought it was locked, but the door opened with a heavy sound.
The surprised Heo Jae turned his head to Man Baek, the leader of the Ui Gi Dae.
Man-Baek hesitated for a moment, then quickly led his men inside.
Lee Yeon-ik and the masters of the Five Great Swordsmen followed.
As the guards and the five great warriors entered the front yard, the gate closed with a thud.
***
A road leading from Yeoju to Pyeongjeongsan Mountain.
Five martial artists are walking diligently, carrying bundles on their backs. They are the direct descendants of the Five Great Martial Arts Officers who are taking the compensation money to Mt. Obong.
In the five shamanic clans, the elders were sent to Mt. Obong in place of Munju, who had gone to Yeoju.
However, it was Yeon Seung-baek, not the elders of Waryongjang and Palsunmun, who took on the task. This was because the elders of Waryongjang and Palsunmun avoided it, saying it was shameful.
Yeon Seung-baek and Hwang Yeom, who were among the three elders, quickly became close friends as they were of similar age.
Yeon Seung-baek, the second son of Waryongjang, spoke to Hwang Yeom, who was standing next to him.
“Hwang So-hyeop, is Yeoju okay?”
“That’s right. The elite of the Chilpai clan are the ones who are the most important. But I’m more concerned about the O Bong San Chae.”
“why?”
“What if those thieves suddenly change their minds? We won’t be able to handle them… …. They might just take the money and talk nonsense?”
“No way. If that were to happen, the Uicheonmun and other officials wouldn’t stay still.”
Hwang Yeom whispered while observing the elders’ expressions.
“If we rescue the hostages anyway, won’t they start a punitive expedition right away? The bandits will obviously know that, so do you think they’ll just hand the hostages over?”
“… … .”
Ilsun Yeonseungbaek was speechless.
Well, it seems a bit naive to believe the thief’s words at face value.
“Ha! But let’s think positively. It’s already complicated because of Yeoju’s work.”
“That is true.”
Yeon Seung-baek, who was walking along the road, suddenly looked back.
And Yeonmu Baek hoped that he would shake up the Hyeopmyeong in Yeoju like his father twenty years ago.
***
Yeoju.
Milky Way.
“Coolook!”
Blood spurted from the mouth of Lee Yeon-ik, the swordsman who was taking a step back.
Lee Yeon-ik stared straight ahead with wide eyes.
Judging from the tingling sensation in my lower abdomen, I think I suffered internal injuries from the fight a little while ago.
As the head of the Uicheon School, I lived my life believing that I had no rivals except for the ten greatest martial artists in the world.
But it didn’t last more than ten seconds.
‘Was the Honsegeomma Cheokjinkyung this strong?’
The Milky Way Jangju was a giant horse of the previous generation, and was called the Green Forest Three Lords.
When I found out that the owner of the Milky Way Galaxy was Cheok Jin-gyeong, I wasn’t too worried.
The Green Forest Triad in his memory was one level lower than him.
That complacent thought was shattered in ten seconds.
Cheok Jin-gyeong used his unique martial art, the Salcheon Sip-i Geom, just like he did thirty years ago.
But I couldn’t resist his obvious swordsmanship.
Every time his sword made contact, an unprecedented force was transmitted, making it difficult to resist.
At first, I thought that my internal energy had increased by taking an elixir.
But that wasn’t a power that could be achieved with just an elixir.
I felt a pressure like Mt. Taesan that I had felt when I was fighting with my father, the Heavenly Sword Master Yi Ui-jeong.
The moment I finally received the ten-fold answer, the word ‘superpower’ came to mind.
Even though I know that the same person is using the same diet, I can’t handle it.
Cheok Jin-gyeong said as he looked at Lee Yeon-ik, who was panting.
“Hehehe! Gunjageom. I have been waiting for this day to come for a long time. Do you know why I have settled in Yeoju? I knew that if I stayed here, I would meet you someday.”
“Huh! The Green Forest’s horse has become a lackey of a famous religion. Aren’t you ashamed?”
“When did you curse at me as the head of the Green Forest? Now you’re complaining because I’m a famous cult member? And you’re the one who’s being beaten and squealing like a dog. Isn’t that right?”
Lee Yeon-ik looked around without answering.
The Uigi Corps was annihilated with only three jang (about 9 meters) to spare before the main gate. The leader of the Uigi Corps, Cheolgeumgang Manbaek, was lying in a pool of blood made of his own blood.
The only people standing on their own two feet in the galaxy are themselves and the four representatives of the Unified Order. It is not because they are outstanding, but because the Uigi-dae stands guard at the front lines.
Lee Yeon-ik spoke to the representatives of the military.
“Everyone! Don’t fight back, just run away! I’m telling you to somehow get back alive!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the men of the clan and Yeonmu Baek ran towards the nearby wall.
Lee Yeon-ik also flew without looking back.
Cheok Jin-gyeong’s sword flew like an arrow towards Lee Yeon-ik.
It was a technique of the Igi Geom that surpassed the secret sword technique.
“Ugh!”
A short scream burst out of Lee Yeon-ik’s mouth as he was about to jump over the wall.
My left arm started to feel hot, so I checked and found that my penis was cut off.
There was no time to be surprised by the unfamiliar sight.
The sword that cut off his left arm and soared into the sky rotated gently in the air.
It gave me goosebumps.
How much aerodynamic force is required to be able to perform such a sword attack!
Lee Yeon-ik fell down the wall, clutching his severed elbow.
Cheok Jin-gyeong, who had been casting the Igi-eogeom for a while, clicked his tongue as if he was disappointed when Lee Yeon-ik disappeared from his sight.
Shhhh.
The sword returned to Chu Jin-kyung with a long, meteor-like tail.
Immediately afterwards, the four great generals came running and bowed their heads.
“Your Majesty, a man has escaped from the manor. Should we send a pursuit party to kill him?”
Cheok Jin-gyeong shook his head at Muyeong-gwi’s words.
“He’s lucky. Leave him alone. Lee Yeon-ik has already run away. Instead, tell him that it’s time to open churches in Gwangmyeongjangwon, Choeolsanjang, Shinwolsa, Ilwondogwan, and Musansochuk. Even if it’s the Chilpaimun, they won’t be able to do anything if six churches open at once.”
“Jeonmyeong!”
With a short answer, the ghost disappeared like smoke.
Suddenly, Cheok Jin-gyeong asked the general.
“Are the monks of Shaolin Temple alive?”
The commander Chiljeolma also replied with a lick of his lips as if he felt sorry for Shin Yang.
“Ugh, I couldn’t capture them because they were so skilled in martial arts.”
“There’s nothing you can do. The ones who are scattered are the monks and Taoists. Just wait a little. I will soon grant you the grace to become one of the ten horsemen.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
Shin Yang knelt down in front of Cheok Jin Kyung.
To become a member of the Sidu Horse Army or the Baekdu Horse Army in the famous religion, you have to look good to your superiors.
The number of Paljuling is extremely limited, so not everyone can enjoy its benefits.
One person needs one, but there are not enough of them compared to the number of people.
Unlike other religions, the famous religion does not require faith. Instead, all you need is blind loyalty to the superiors. Then, the superiors will take care of leading you.
Once you become a Sipduma soldier, you gain supernatural powers as if you had been transformed. The reason why the masters of the Sapa fall for the famous religion is for such a simple and clear reason.
***
Bobonghyun.
Mt. Obong.
The five martial artists of Luoyang did not yet know what had happened in Yeoju. They were moving without resting in order to rescue the hostages as soon as possible.
They arrived at the mountain village around noon.
As the Five Bongsipgeols welcomed them, Lee Won-ho, the guardian of the Uicheonmun, spoke on behalf of the group.
“The old man is Yi Won-ho of the Uicheonmun. Let’s cut to the chase and get to the point. I have brought the money requested from each sect. Please release the people who are being held.”
Along with the words, Lee Won-ho held out a bag of money.
Then the others also took out their money bags from their bosoms.
Yeonseungbaek, who had a large sum of money to pay, had to quickly unpack his bags.
Lee Cheol-san took the money bag on behalf of Yeon Jeok-ha.
“Where is the Luoyang Five Gorges?”
As soon as Feng Yanchu sent the signal, Huang Yaoming, the poisonous dagger who had been waiting, came with the Luoyang Five Knights.
Lee Won-ho frowned slightly at the sight of the Luoyang Five-Handed Swordsman tied up with rope. If the Emperor found out that he was treating the Yi Cheon-mun family in this way, there would be chaos.
For a moment, Lee Won-ho thought it was fortunate that he had come instead of Moon Jae-in, the owner of the house.
Although Moon-ju was called a gentleman, he did not hesitate to go through any trouble when it came to his family.
What if he saw Isomin like that?
‘I bet he would have pulled out his sword without a second thought… … .’
Meanwhile, Huang Yeoming held one end of the rope and looked at Yeonjeokha.
However, he was staring at the distant mountains with an expressionless face.
“Listen, you guys. I paid the compensation, so please let me go.”
Lee Won-ho slowly reached out to the rope that Hwang Yeo-myeong was holding.
Then Hwang Yeo-myeong slapped Lee Won-ho’s hand away.
Although he was angry and upset, Lee Won-ho had to wait for the decision of Oh Bong-sip-geol.
At that time, Yeonjeokha looked around at the people from the Luoyang Five Knights family and asked.
“You don’t seem to be Munju, but who are you?”
“The old man is Lee Won-ho, the general of the Uicheonmun. He is the elder of the Daeyeonmun, and the one next to him is the elder of the Chilyangmun. And the two small groups over there are the second son of Waryongjang and the great disciples of the Palseonmun.”
“Why aren’t the gatekeepers coming?”
Then, even the Luoyang Five Heroes glanced at Lee Won-ho with curious eyes.
Wuxia,
