Chapter 41 (2/2)

He had no choice. After going through that, everyone will be just like him.

It wasn’t a cowardly and lame excuse, it was real.

“Should we start soon again today?”

The blood went away from the face of the Il Chim Gui.

“Al, already? It seems that the time is still a little too early…”

“It’s okay. I’m going to be doing it for a while today.”

Il Chim Gui swallowed dry saliva. What did he mean by a while? How was he planning on doing it that he searched for him already?

“Let’s go inside.”

With a dying face, the Il Chim Gui went into the hall alongside Byeoktaesan with his head down.

And after a while, a scream burst out from inside the hall.

***

What Byeoktaesan was doing to the Il Chim Gui was a kind of experiment and training.

He was in the middle of training in which he carefully pulled out the spirit and burned only the impurities within the existing spirit.

And when he burned it lightly on the surface, he thoroughly looked at what kind of change would happen.

First of all, the conclusions made through the attempts so far are that the mixed parts of the spirits must be burned only ever so slightly to avoid damaging the spirit.

However, if you do so, the pain of the one who had their spirit pulled will be more clearly imprinted in their memory.

When the spirit is pulled out completely, only the sense of dreaming remains. The less you pull out, the more real the person felt.

Byeoktaesan also knew it for sure this time.

Everything was thanks to the Il Chim Gui.

The Il Chim Gui had the perfect spirit for Byeoktaesan to practice with. The bet itself seemed to have a special effect.

When he first made the bet, he bet without thinking, but when he saw the results, he thought he was really good at doing it.

On the other hand, the Il Chim Gui, who was in the position to be subjected to it, felt like he was crazy.

He had no idea what exactly he was doing. Because he couldn’t remember.

However, he clearly remembered the pain that seemed to prick his body with a needle.

So he thought so. He thought he was putting needles all over his body.

However, when he checked his body, there was no trace at all.

He really went at it today as well.

However, he couldn’t figure out what happened and how, so he felt frustrated and crazy.

“I… sir, can I say something.”

Byeoktaesan looked at the l Chim Gui as if waiting to hear it. He felt good today because his performance was quite good.

It was because he thought he could heal his body sooner or later without having to go to the  Giru.

In fact, it wouldn’t have been better to go to Giru every day for Byeoktaesan.

It wasn’t just a day or two of going to the Giru. It wasn’t fun to go out and have a prostitute, since all he did was pull the spirit out as practice and left.

However, thanks to Il Chim Gui, he was able to find a way to avoid that.

“In fact, the reason I came here is that I have a schedule in Hubei.”

“Schedule?”

“I received an invitation from Ho Mu-ryun. I already gave permission to go.”

“Ho mu ryun?”

Suddenly, the word Yoo Seo-yeon said a while ago came to mind.

“Because of the meeting thing? The Il Chim Gui quickly nodded.

“That’s right. So I’d like to go there a little…”

That was nothing difficult. But for a while, he needed Il Chim Gui.

“When do you have to go?”

“I think I have to start preparing to leave soon.”

Byeoktaesan nodded happily.

“Well, do that then.”

The eyes of the Il Chim Gui opened wide.

“Really? Can I really go?”

“Sure. It’s not a difficult task. Don’t I just have to go with you?”

The expression of the Il Chim Gui momentarily decayed. However, he was able to fix it quickly.

If Byeoktaesan’s mood is offended, it might be more invasive.

“Then, shall we leave tomorrow? There was someone else who wanted to go too, so that’s great.”

The Il Chim Gui did not give any answer.

Perhaps, for the time being, it seemed difficult to escape from this hell.

***

When Byeoktaesan said he was going to the Ho mu ryun, the world of Gold Wall Merchants flipped.

Simple to say but actually going was another story.

Even though it is far away, this Ho mu ryun’s meeting was to be attended only by the top martial artists in Hubei.

It wasn’t a place for the second son of the gold wall merchants to go to.

However, the atmosphere changed a little when he said he was going to accompany the Il Chim Gui.

After that, they were anxious to somehow put other people in there.

Ho Mu Ryun was a very large organization.

It was worth considering just the organization called Ho mu ryun, but all the martial artists who are famous in Hubei are entangled in it.

So how much will it be of great help in the future to maintain a good relationship with Ho Mu-ryun as a merchant based in Hubei?

Moreover, as the Cheongeumryeon staggered recently, there was a lot of room for the gold wall merchants to move around with. Enough to be able to look elsewhere.

However, all of those attempts were blocked in the stubborn coldness of the Il Chim Gui.

To be more precise, they were blocked by the opposition of the Il Chim Gui under the direction of Byeoktaesan.

Eventually, the Gold wall merchants had no choice but to entrust everything to Byeoktaesan, who was included in the group of the Il Chim Gui.

The second problem was Byeoktaesan’s health.

Byeok Tae-soo was very anxious about the long trip Byeoktaesan was embarking on.

However, there was nothing more to say because two of the doctors, Chunchu Shinui and Il Chim Gui both argued that it was not good to stay only at home.

Of course, this was also the result of faithfully following Byeoktaesan’s instructions.

After several things happened, it came the day that Byeoktaesan and the group left for Ho mu ryun.

For Byeoktaesan, Byeoktae-soo prepared the best wagons available.

In addition, enough travel expenses were paid to take care of the maximum convenience during the journey.

Byeok Tae-soo watched Byeoktaesan leave from a distance.

He couldn’t openly see him off close.

One of those small actions could later become the seeds of trouble.

So, from a very high place, he looked down at Byeoktaesan and the group standing at the front gate.

However, the composition of the party was a bit strange.

“There are… a lot of women?”
