“… … .”
A Binggeum song that was completely ruined by Minho.
There was a middle-aged man quietly watching the collapsed cliff surrounding the ice valley.
Although the middle-aged man had grayish hair, his shadowy face seemed to have the scent of blood, as if he had just seen blood.
There was no blood on clothing or skin. It was simply that the blood history that a middle-aged man had accumulated throughout his life was naturally revealed in his prayers.
“Sir, I have received a call.”
The man in black who suddenly appeared behind the religious leader bowed down and said.
The man called the cult leader, Cheonma, the leader of the Heavenly Demon Church, gave instructions in a heavy voice.
“Say.”
“Yes.”
The identity of the person in black was a demon from the Black Heavenly Force, a military unit directly under the head of the Heavenly Demon Church.
He continued his report in a prostrate position, as if he did not dare to look at the religious leader’s face.
“As a result of the investigation, it appears that Myeolhwadan was destroyed in the same way as Bingeumgok. It was confirmed that the building burned and collapsed, and that some of the surrounding terrain was deformed. There is also something unusual: all the members of Bingeumgok and the Extinction Team are missing, except for those who happened to be outside.”
“Byeonggokju and Myeolhwadanju?”
“The same goes for those two.”
Although they said they were missing, it was easy to guess that they were all dead.
Looking at the blood stains and flesh left here and there, as well as the traces of battle left on the floor and buildings, the answer came to me without even having to check.
The Heavenly Demon and the Man in Black also had the same thought.
The question was, why did this happen?
Due to this incident, the Demonic Cult lost two more of its Flower Sutra masters. Adding in Tuma, who had recently died, it was equivalent to losing about 30% of the total Hwagyeong force.
However, Cheonma’s attitude did not change from the beginning. He asked the man in black, smelling the faint scent of blood as he prayed.
“What is the cause?”
“First of all, there is a possibility that Bingeumgok and Myeolhwadan collided and died together. It is a widely known fact that the personalities of the two groups do not match, so there is a possibility that the conflict may have escalated into an all-out war.”
The man in black took a moment to catch his breath and then continued speaking.
“… However, this possibility is quite low. It is true that there was conflict between the two groups, but in the end it was nothing more than a minor dispute. And even with that small dispute, the owner of Bingeumgok and the owner of Myeonghwadan have reached an agreement on their own. It is also strange that the bodies of the dead believers are not left behind. Even if you take a corpse with opposing internal energy, you cannot use it as a material for magical energy, because there is no benefit to them. Above all, if there was going to be an all-out war, there is no way that the fact would not have been reported to the religious leader. If that were the case, I would have rather asked the religious leader for notarization and risked my life.”
Despite the logical words of the man in black, the Heavenly Demon did not nod his head even slightly. He just quietly asked for an answer.
“Next.”
“It is most likely that they were annihilated by external forces. Although there are surprisingly few traces left behind, in this case, it would have been possible if the enemy’s strength had included a master with overwhelming inaction enough to collapse the cliff of Bingeumgok.”
“In one night, a force capable of annihilating Bingeumgok and Myeonghwadan sneaked into Cheonsan?”
“Yes, I was interrogating Branch Manager Hao Mun regarding this matter.”
“Bring it.”
At the same time as the Heavenly Demon’s instructions were given, another black-robed person from the Black Heavenly Dae, who had been waiting in the distance, brought in the branch leader and executives of the Haomen Xinjiang branch.
When I reported to Cheonma, I had already anticipated this situation and accompanied them. It was a task worthy of the Heukcheondae, the hands and feet of the Heavenly Demon.
“Oh my… ! Teacher! I really don’t know!”
Xinjiang Branch Manager Hao Wen shouted with an aggrieved expression.
It was a reaction that came from the heart, as his life was literally no different from that of a windbreaker since he was brought before the Heavenly Demon.
In the meantime, Haomun’s Xinjiang branch had been working closely with the Demonic Cult to provide them with the information they wanted. You may ask how Hao Mun could cooperate with the demons, but in the first place, they were a group gathered together in the form of a union rather than loyalty to the Lord Wen.
Due to the nature of the area being extremely far away from the center of the central plains and closer to the Demon Cult, it was inevitable that the ones they would meet more often would be the Demon Cult of the Demon Cult.
Therefore, it was semi-essential for them to cooperate with the Demonic Cult in order to operate in Xinjiang.
“Have we never done anything in vain? I really don’t know anything about this… !”
The problem is that there is no reason for the Demon Cult to consider Hao Wen’s situation, and the resentment expressed by the branch leader alone cannot move the heart of the Heavenly Demon.
The man in black questioned the branch leader on behalf of the cult leader, who did not say anything.
“If a force strong enough to annihilate Bingeumgok and the Annihilation Group entered Xinjiang, there is no way you would not have known about it. No matter how advanced a martial arts expert is, he is still only human. Whether you hire a porter or a driver, you must at least leave traces of staying in a guest house or supplying food along the way. But I have never received any such report. Even after this, are you still saying that you have never done anything in vain?”
“Well, we were surprised too! As if they had been punished by heaven, the two tribes evaporated… ”
Of course, the branch manager, who knew nothing, was shocked and defended himself.
However, that defense offended the Heavenly Demon.
“Now, are you saying that heavenly punishment has come upon our Church of the Heavenly Demon?”
“… … !”
The branch manager tried to get his words back, but it was already too late.
“That’s not it… !”
Sigh!
“!”
The heads of the branch manager, who was kneeling, as well as the other executives, all rose into the air. Vigorous blood spurted from the neck of the victims, who were unaware that they were dying, several times before collapsing.
Knock… Knock…
Before I knew it, drops of the victim’s blood fell from the fingertips of the Heavenly Demon, which was lifted horizontally.
When the Heavenly Demon wrapped his hands in demonic energy, the fresh blood lost its vitality, dried, turned into dust, and disappeared.
The Heavenly Demon gave instructions to Black Heaven in a calm tone.
“Prepare for Dafa.”
The man in black, who didn’t even blink when Haomun’s disciples were massacred, flinched.
Because the Great Law that the Heavenly Demon spoke of was such a big deal.
However, since an order came from the mouth of the Heavenly Demon, they had to carry out that order no matter what.
“Honorable name!”

“Sang-soo, are you awake?”
‘Why am I tied to the bed?’
Actually, I knew why I was tied up.
Of course, Namgung Hwaran tied me up, so I am lying on the bed like this. My question was why Namgung Hwa-ran tied me up like this.
When Namgung Hwaran woke up and got up from the bed, I was already awake too.
Now that he has become a Hwa-gyeong, he can push out poison as much as the amount of poison from Mt. Mikyong with his inner energy. Even if that wasn’t the case, I could just burn it with my supernatural ability.
Therefore, it was not very difficult to come to my senses at the sight of Namgung Hwaran while I was still in good health and had not ingested any poison.
But I continued to pretend to sleep, hoping for a sweeter event.
It’s an event like Namgunghwaran looking at me with affection while I’m sleeping or secretly kissing me.
Then, when I noticed that Namgung Hwaran seemed to have calmed down, I planned to pretend to doze off for a while and get up.
‘?’
The problem was that, contrary to my expectations, Namgung Hwaran picked me up and laid me down on the bed. Tuseonhyeophaengrok’s avatar was small, so even if it was Namgung Hwaran, it was able to move me without much effort.
Actually, I could understand it up to this point. Because she and I were a married couple, we usually slept in the same bed.
‘Yes, maybe you wanted to lie in bed with me?’
While I was waiting patiently with that thought in mind, I kept hearing the sound of something rustling. It looked like he was looking for something.
Namgung Hwaran searched for something for a while, then brought a wooden box that was stored somewhere and tied my hands with the cloth inside it.
It was an awkward situation to open my eyes in the middle, so I was finally able to open my mouth only after she finished all her work.
“Madam? What is this… ?”
I asked, blinking like someone who had just woken up.
Contrary to my worries, Namgung Hwaran came to his senses and did not look very angry.
“I woke up first while Sang-gong was asleep.”
“No, I understand that… Why on earth am I tied to the bed? Can’t you explain this a little bit?”
Upon hearing the question, Namgung Hwaran’s eyes changed completely.
“Minho, did I know when you would sneak away and let me go?”
