    *** ***

    “Hehe.”

    Ho Cheon-an burst out laughing.

    Squeak!

    Come on! Come on!

    This was because he was riding on a powerfully running ship.

    Seogong, who had regained his strength after nearly two weeks of recuperation, ran through the field.

    It was so fast that even a desperately running horse could overtake it in an instant.

    “You guy, don’t push yourself too hard.”

    Squeak!

    Ho Cheon-an just patted Seo-gong’s head in response to the response that seemed like this was easy.

    Ho Cheon-an could clearly see Xu Gong’s anxiety.

    They run desperately because they want to show their usefulness in some way out of fear of being abandoned.

    Even though it was time to eat a lot of herbal medicine to restore my body, I was watching and waking up, so it was like I was done.

    Ho Cheon-an decided not to rush.

    Seo Gong also wants to be with Ho Cheon-an, and Ho Cheon-an has decided to take Seo Gong with him, so they can travel together and gradually get to know each other.

    “Let’s rest here today.”

    As the sun slowly began to set, Ho Cheon-an stopped Seo-gong, took out a herb from the bag, and fed it to Seo-gong. Ho Cheon-an noticed and put a herbal medicine into Seo-gong’s mouth, which was gnawing.

    Take a picture?! Snap!

    “You should eat happily, you guy.”

    Even to a very old age, with the wealth he accumulated while hunting for fortune. Ho Cheon-an, a rich grandfather with big hands, stuffed precious herbs into Seogong’s cheeks until they swelled.

    Seo Gong slowly noticed Ho Cheon-an’s notice.

    It was nice to provide a lot of good food, but even eating the highest quality beef was painful if you ate it until your stomach exploded.

    After running hard all day, I managed to lose some of the energy I felt like I was about to explode, and then again?

    “This guy is watching me again. If you were that big and swallowed a few pieces of grass, would you feel full? A handful of this herb is nothing, so eat it quickly.”

    Squeak.

    No, any more than this is the limit.

    Seogong was so full of energy, as if his stomach was bursting from overeating, and worried that his body might burst at any moment, he protested cautiously, but Ho Cheonan resolutely pushed the herb into Seogong’s mouth.

    Seogong gave up and ate Yeongcho.

    Ho Cheon-an laughed vainly while stroking Seogong’s head, which was hanging on the ground from overeating. I can’t believe that a guy whose name is Yeongmul turned into green onion kimchi after running around for half a day. I guess I’ll have to make it healthy by feeding it lots of special health food.

    Ho Cheon-an, who had scheduled a lot of unintentional torture, nodded in satisfaction and leaned against Seo-gong’s body.

    As I felt the soft fur and warm body temperature, I felt all the fatigue in my body disappear.

    Ho Cheon-an smiled bitterly.

    I am old, but is this body any ordinary body?

    It was a body that had achieved all of the following: impervious to swords, impervious to poison, and impervious to water. Due to his vast inner strength and comparable vitality, he would not get tired even if he practiced martial arts for three days and nights.

    Even if you ran on the light all day, you wouldn’t feel tired, so what kind of fatigue can you feel while traveling on the west?

    Nevertheless, the reason you feel so comfortable is probably because your mind, not your body, feels stable.

    It may be the comfort you can feel because you are not alone, but because there is someone giving you their body heat.

    ‘Not bad.’

    Ho Cheon-an thought about this and thought about Jae-gi in a daze.

    During the two weeks that he took care of Seogong, Ho Cheon-an gathered a lot of information.

    Current status of blood religion. The situation of the empire. The direction of the Murim Alliance. Movement of birds, etc…

    Based on that information, Ho Cheon-an decided what he should do.

    ‘First, we have to solve the question.’

    Why did Seogong follow him as soon as he saw him? Ho Cheon-an, who mastered Jinbeop and mastered various miscellaneous arts, analyzed the blood arts practiced by the Namcheon Hyeolgyo at Namcheon Hyeolgyo.

    However, although I only got information about blood magic and blood fish, I couldn’t get an answer about Seogong’s attitude.

    This was because none of the members of the Northern Heavenly Blood Cult knew the intimate information of the Blood Cult.

    Hwang Sa-min, who talked a lot about being a master of clot art and the master of the Bukcheon blood religion, was in fact just a practitioner in charge of producing clots. Due to the sudden assassination of the blood lord, he was able to shake off his power by luckily obtaining the blood clots and iron blood books that should have been sent to various places.

    The blood people under Hwang Sa-min were truly nobodies and were completely ignorant of the intimate information of the blood religion.

    So, Ho Cheon-an decided to visit the remnants of another blood cult and obtain clues to interpret the current situation.

    While thinking about this and that, Ho Cheon-an, who had fallen into a light sleep, woke up. Seogong, who was struggling to control his vitality that seemed to burst from the movement, got up quickly and hurried on his way to expend his energy.

    Squeak! Squeak!

    “Hehe, I understand. I understand.”

    With the powerful running of Seogong, the place Hocheonan headed towards was Jinhyeolhyeolgyo, located in Gwangju.

    “Tsk tsk. Anyway, I guess I’m just a bunch of idiots, so I’m not good at naming things either.”

    After confirming Seogong’s approach, Jinhyeolhyeokyo immediately turned over.

    “Relics! Spiritual creatures are coming!”

    “The Book of Iron Blood? Is it a cabal of the Namcheon Blood Religion?”

    “Hurry up and tell the leader!”

    “Close the door!”

    Ho Cheon-an patted Seogong on the back as he watched the warriors of Namcheonhyeolgyo hurriedly close the door. It was some kind of signal to stop.

    Squeak!

    However, Seo Gong shook his head and increased his speed.

    battle!

    A golden opportunity to consume all the energy in his body had come, and Seogong did not want to miss the opportunity.

    On the other hand, Ho Cheon-an was heartbroken.

    He was impressed by Seogong’s proactive attitude and said that he would fight together.

    “Hehe. That’s right, let’s fight together.”

    From now on, I will have to give more nutritious herbs!

    With mixed feelings, Seo Gong and Ho Cheon-an looked into each other’s eyes and nodded.

    Squeak!

    Wow!!

    Seogong’s body slam shattered the gate of Namcheonhyeolgyo in one go.

    “Cyo, buy time until the leader comes!”

    “Woman, how can you stop a spirit creature!”

    “Shut up! Resistance means death… Wow!”

    One of the bloodmen scolded the warriors and tried to fight them somehow, but it was already too late.

    This was because Hocheonan’s Noeryongji had been released.

    Martial people, including blood people, were organized literally in the blink of an eye.

    Squeak!

    Seogong stood up and protested to Ho Cheonan. It was barely a chance to relieve my body, but I ended up doing it all by myself!

    In response to Seo Gong’s protest, Ho Cheon-an stepped back with an embarrassed expression.

    “Hehe, I’m sorry. You take care of those who come forward.”

    Seogong snorted heavily and stepped forward. This time, I will definitely expel the energy surging within my body and stop it!

    Whoa!

    Along with Seogong’s pledge, the cries of Jinhyeolhyeolgyo rang out.

    Was there at least a crypt hidden underground? A majestic figure was revealed, almost destroying one of the palace walls.

    A bear spirit appeared, apparently very angry, with its mouth wide open, showing its sharp teeth and gums.

    The bear spirit that witnessed Seo Gong let out an angry roar.

    Wow!!

    Amazing power!

    Just the roar is enough to make Seogong’s ears flutter and create a strong wind that requires Ho Cheon-an to catch Heuk-rip!

    Seogong, who had received the bear’s roar with his whole body, did not remain still.

    Jjiui profit!!

    After letting out a brave roar, Seogong quickly took a step back.

    No matter how much energy your body was full of, there were some things you could do and some things you couldn’t.

    “Hehe.”

    Ho Tian-an smiled and nodded.

    Yes, it’s important not to overdo it.

    Isn’t it not that the strong survive, but that those who survive are strong?

    Still, it was true that strong beings had an advantage in surviving, so from now on, I will diligently eat Yeongcho from Seogong.

    It was when Ho Cheon-an thought about this and nodded.

    “Hahahaha! The idiots of the Northern Heavenly Blood Cult are finally doing something.”

    A portrait of the head of Jinhyeolhyeolgyo, who revealed himself behind the bear spirit. Deungojeok immediately recognized Seo Gong and burst out laughing.

    “Hehehe! Did you think that the Iron Blood Tome, which was used only for making blood clots due to its lack of combat power, could defeat the elite spirit creatures of the Blood Cult?”

    “Hoo. Do you know about this spirit?”

    Deunggojeok narrowed his eyes as he looked at Hao Tianan, who was asking a strange question. Why aren’t my eyes bloodshot? Because he was wearing black lips, I couldn’t fully see the glow in Hocheon’s eyes, but I guess the bloody eyes were a feature that was at best obscured by the black lips.

    “Hmm. I guess you were just another blood member in a blood cult.”

    “Shut up! It’s a different level from the chores that were done in the rear! He was a true warrior of the Blood Cult who led the spirit beasts and was at the vanguard of the conquest of the Central Plains and made the name of the Blood Cult known to the world!”

    Deung Gojeok had doubts about Ho Cheon-an’s eyes and actions, but he soon put aside those doubts. Since I brought the Iron Blood Book with me, what does it matter whether I am a blood person or not? What was important was that the opportunity to defeat the Sanghyeolseo came on its own.

    Just like this, after defeating the Iron Blood Book and the Nancheon Blood Bridge in one go, I will become the loser of Yunnan!

    Deunggojeok looked at Seogong, dripping saliva, and gave an order in blood language to Bloodwoong, who was shaking his body.

    [Suppress the Iron Blood Book!]

    Wow!!

    Hyeolwoong immediately rushed towards Seogong, and Hocheonan stood in front of Hyeolwoong as he watched.

    “Hahahaha! You fool!”

    Drumstick laughed at Hu Tian-an. Looking at the way the warriors were subdued, it seemed like they were quite capable, but to think of going head-to-head with a spirit creature!

    It’ll turn into a blood clot in no time!

    As he thought about that, the smiling face of Dounggojeok stiffened.

    This was because Hyeolwoong, who was running wildly, suddenly braked and stopped in front of Hocheonan.

    Hyeolwoong is sitting on his butt and looking straight into Hocheonan.

    why?

    When Hyeolwoong was in front of his prey like he is now, he became so ferocious that it was difficult to even properly deal with him.

    But why did such a hero stop with his prey in front of him?

    Deungojeok hastily modified the order.

    [Kill the person in front of you!]

    Cooong?

    Hyeolwoong blinked, looked at the doungojeok, then looked at Hocheonan again and straightened up.

    Well then.

    The old man in front of me will be bloodied in an instant by the blood hero’s ferocious paw paw.

    However, the reality was different from the original expectations.

    Jump!

    This was because Hyeolwoong, who had once stood up, lay down.

    Guuu! Wooow!

    In that state, he was shaking his body and even let out a cry.

    “Hehe.”

    Ho Cheon-an raised his hand and patted the house-sized body of Blood Woong. Bloodwoong let out a satisfied cry and twisted his body, and the dounggojeok and Jinhyeolhyeolgyo bloodmen opened their mouths wide.

    “Okay, I think you know a little bit of information, so I guess we should have a leisurely conversation.”

    The flash of thunder spread out, and the blood people and warriors fell down screaming.

    Ugh.

    Hyeolwoong just cried in satisfaction at Hocheonan’s touch, as if it was none of his business.
