73 (2/2)
“What?”
“ A limit.”
“Ah!”
“What you are feeling today is because you overcame that limit. Reached a place that you have never gone before. Although everyone believes that they need to overcome their limits, they don’t know what that limit is.”
She nodded at my words. Since it sounded right to her. “However, a limit isn’t just external. Sometimes it could be internal.”
“What do you mean?”
“There is a limit internally as well. Your usual habits, thoughts, and actions. Those are limits too. What I mean by breaking through this is to change yourself. Changing your actions, your habits as well as your thought.”
“Ah!”
She was deeply engrossed in her thoughts, and I gave her plenty of time since this was a very important for Kang Ho-In. Something like this could take as short as minutes to hours.
After some time she looked at me and said, “I don’t completely understand it, but get parts of it.”
“That’s good for now. Good work today.”
Although she was full of sweat from today’s work she was smiling.
“You must train like this every day. Since you will meet your master in a few days.”
“Thanks”
“It’s nothing much.”
As I was leaving I said, “Don’t forget. That day it won't be me or your mind fighting, it will be your body.”

I infiltrated the San Dong Dark Guild’s headquarters.
Since I was on a verge of reaching a hundred twenty years’ worth of energy, there was no one here that could detect me. I knew that my fate with them wasn’t over, who would have thought that it would be like this?
Two people were having a conversation in Ya Chun’s room. It was Ya Chun and his right-hand man Koo Chul. The man who killed Si Gon.
“It wouldn’t be that they are not coming because they got lost. Those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds of the Four Great
Powers. They dare ignore us?”
When the Dark Guild asked the Ho Yeon School for help, they knew that they would send Ho Yeon Nam. However, he never came to meet them.
“It doesn’t matter, this isn’t my first time dealing with those old fools.”
“But the situation is different now. We are dealing with the Heavenly Dao Gate’s Decimator, Yeom
Hwa.
“Hmmmm.”
“I am worried that they might have a different scheme.”
“Have a different scheme?”
“I am just worried they might betray us and take our money. Didn’t we promise them two hundred thousand nyang for this?”
This was what Ho Yeon Sae requested. He said he would never take this request if it was anything less than that. Not only that they also had to give the Kang Suh Dark Guild fifty thousand nyang in addition as introduction fee. The Ho Yeon school had a close relations.h.i.+p with Kang Suh Dark Guild.
So the total amount of nyang invested was two hundred fifty thousand nyang.
It was pretty hard to calculate how much time they need to regain that much money, but it was
better than losing their lives.
“We should have solved this ourselves.”
“Your tricks won’t work on someone like Yeom Hwa.”
“But if we charge at his together…”
“All of your will probably all die together. Where is the Decimator right now?”
“He is at an inn with the Five Divine Swords of the Heavenly Dao Gate.”
“You are observing him well right?”
“We are watching him twenty-four seven, but I have a question.”
“What?”
“Why is the Decimator staying at an inn? Since we are his target he should be coming to for us
right?”
“It's because he is not here to a.s.sa.s.sinate me.”
“What?”
“He is here to get revenge on me. He is here to show not just the San Dong but the entire Central
Plain. To show the whole world that the Decimator is here to destroy us. They are just setting the
stage, and they will strike when the time is right.”
Koo Chul’s expression darkened at Ya Chun’s word, “But we didn’t kill Ma Jung Soo. I will try to
appease them.”
“Would they believe you? It's already too late.”
The moment they killed Si Gon things spiraled out of their control.
“I will take responsibility and kill him.”
“Don’t talk nonsense and prepare to depart.”
“Where are you going?”
“To meet Ho Yeon Nam. Since they won’t come to us we must go to them.”
All that he could believe in was Ho Yeon School. He must do his best to escape while the
Heavenly Dao Gate took on the Ho Yeon School.
After Ya Chun placed the book in a certain order a small corridor opened.
He placed Koo Chul outside and went inside.
After a while, he came back out carrying something.
“Son of a b.i.t.c.h! You may hate us but you can never hate this.”
The two people left the room.
An hour later a carriage secretly left the Dark Guild’s headquarter.
I placed myself right outside watching them leave.
The place that I was at allowed me to listen to their conversation as well as see him going into the
secret door.
I was sure there was a safe inside that door. Since only Koo Chul was accompanying him it means no one else knew about it except the two of them.
After staring at the room for a while I placed my sights onto the carriage.
The thing that I had to be concerned with is not the money but their movements. Money must not
be my objective, since I could always take it from them.
I threw myself in the direction of the carriage.
When one of the guards looked up I was already gone from that place.
