Chapter 88 (2/2)

Jo Tae-joo stroked his arms once. It contained information that was originally intended to be given to Byeoktaesan.

His body quickly turned towards the gold closet.

It will probably arrive sooner if only Hwa-ok did not interrupt in the process.

* * *

Hwa-ok looked at the front door of the golden closet with a serious expression.

As soon as she left Baekhwaru, Tae joo came here right away, but there was a lot of work in the middle.

She had no idea that Haomen would come out so blatantly.

The infinite Haomundos openly obstructed the movement of the flame.

Of course, he didn’t touch his body or attack.

However, it took time by lining up and blocking the road or blocking the alley that had moved in a different direction with a cart.

In the end, they arrived at the golden closet, but half the time wasted halfway through.

Hwa-ok noticed Jo Tae-joo’s plan.

Isn’t it strange that it comes out so blatantly that he didn’t know?

She slowly entered the gold closet. Then they headed to the residence of Taesan.

Not surprisingly, Byeoktaesan and Jo Taejoo were standing in front of the hall.

Jo Tae-joo gently turned his head to look at Hwa-ok. His lips rose slightly.

His eyes were full of laughter and ridicule.

Hwa-ok ignored his gaze and looked at Byeoktaesan.

Byeok Tae-san was holding a bundle of papers in his hand. It was information brought by Jo Tae-joo.

It was clear that it was the very information Hwa-ok had asked for from Jo Tae-joo.

Jo Tae-joo was convinced. Byeok Tae-san’s view of himself would have changed now.

Wouldn’t it be nice to work hard until now for that?

Jo Tae-joo clearly confirmed it while speaking hard earlier. Byeok Tae-san’s expression changes slightly.

That was undoubtedly an admiration.

“Our former head of Uichang has just arrived. It is really nice to see you after a long time.”

Jo Tae-joo lied without blinking an eye.

But it was so natural and sincere that even Hwa-ok, who knew the truth, thought for a moment that he might have seen someone else at Baekhwa-ru.

Hwa-ok approached quietly and bowed his head slightly to Byeok-taesan.

“I’m home.”

Hwa-ok hesitated for a moment, Iooking at Taesan. He didn’t know what to report.

‘If I reported it as it is, would Byeok Tae-san believe what I said? It seems that Jo Tae-joo was working hard to instill faith in Byeok Tae-san now, but if he told the truth, would he really believe it?’

She had all sorts of thoughts.

Perhaps, if the opponent was not Byeoktaesan, she would have been able to make a decision quickly.

This time, by breaking the barrier that was blocking the ability, the ability she used before has grown to a higher level.

Beyond confirming the essence of the other person through the scene, he could now vaguely read the current state of mind.

However, there was nothing to be seen from Taesan.

It was like facing a black wall.

When Byeok Tae-san looked at Hwa-ok, she made her decision.

It doesn’t matter whether Byeok Tae-san believes her or not. What matters is how you feel and what you do.

“I bought rubbish information with a single bullion of gold.”

Byeok Tae-san laughed. Jo Tae-joo’s expression, judging it as a laugh, became a little brighter. And looked at Hwa-ok happily.

“The person one who boiled tiger liver. Who did that?” Tae-san asked

Hwa-ok turned and looked at Jo Tae-joo.

“It’s that person.” She answered.

Jo Tae-joo looked at Mt. Byeok with a bewildered expression. Of course, it was also acting.

“Chief of Uichang, why are you here? Today I never met you… Aren’t you confused with someone else?” Jo Tae-joo said that and gave her a puzzled expression.

“Besides, the time is not right. If that was the case, the Uichang branch manager should have come here before me. You must have come to our Haomun Wuhan branch, that is, Baekhwaru, right?”

At Jo Tae-joo’s words, Hwa-ok bit her lip and looked at him with an angry expression.

Byeok Tae-san saw it and stepped out.

“Okay. What do you see in this guy?”

Byeok Tae-san asked Hwa-ok.

Hwa-ok’s eyes widened slightly.

“It looks a little different to me, isn’t it? Can’t you see things a little different from before?”

“Ah… No, that’s right.”

Byeok Tae-san smiled and pointed at Jo Tae-joo with a chin.

“What do you see?”

“I see lust, ambition, deception, ridicule,”

Byeok Tae-san tilted his head.

“Ambition and deception, though… lust? What, were you aiming for the body from the beginning? Isn’t this guy crazy?”

Jo Tae-joo was really upset. Doesn’t Byeok Tae-san seem to believe in Hwa-ok’s nonsense? It shouldn’t be like this.

“Oh, Confucius…”

Byeok Tae-san raised his hand and stopped Jo Tae-joo’s words. He still hasn’t finished what he has to say.

“But why ridicule? Are you laughing at me now?”

Byeok Tae-san turned his head and looked at Jo Tae-joo. Jo Tae-joo’s heart sank in the cold and calm eyes that had subdued emotions.

“You mean you laughed at me because I was just listening?”

“Hey, Confucius! no! How can I! Do you really believe in that absurd statement?”

Byeok Tae-san laughed bitterly.

“Then will you believe me? Only the second time you met? And the words of the guy who broke trust in the first place?”

Jo Tae-joo’s eyes widened. It was only now that he realized that Byeok Tae-san had not listened to a single word from the beginning.

Still, it’s too much to believe in Hwa-ok’s words.

Byeok Tae-san looked at Hwa-ok, not paying attention to what Jo Tae-joo was thinking or how he looked.

“It has become more useful.” Taesan smiled and praised her.

Hwa-ok smiled brightly and bow her head slightly.

“Thank you.”

All the worries and worries that had been firmly entrenched melted away.

She looked up at Mt. Byeoktaesan with happy eyes.

At that moment, Byeok Tae-san was putting his hand on the crown of Jo Tae-joo.

Jo Tae-joo was confused. And fear came rushing in. He struggled to get out, but from the moment Byeok Tae-san raised his hand, he couldn’t move his body at all.

Hwa-ok’s eyes widened slightly as she looks at what is happening.

“Oh, Confucius. If you kill him right now, things get complicated.”

Byeok Tae-san laughed bitterly.

“Why? You don’t think you can fix it?”

Hwa-ok shook his head with determined eyes.

“No. I will definitely fix it.”

Jo Tae-joo’s complexion turned pale as he heard the conversation between the two.

“Sah, save me! Hey, Uichang Branch Manager! I was wrong! So please save me! Confucius! We will make sure this never happens again! I will dedicate the Haomen to Confucius with all my might! Please, please, save me!”

“It’s noisy. Just because you talk doesn’t change the outcome.”

Despair appeared on Jo Tae-joo’s face. He thought he was going to die now.

Of course, Byeok Tae-san didn’t care whether Jo Tae-joo was desperate or not. His gaze was directed to Hwa-ok.

“Take a good look.”

Byeok Tae-san pulled out the soul of Jo Tae-joo.

Hwa-ok’s eyes widened.
