Return of Mount Hua Sect

Then wouldn't the old bastards get a little more swearing? (2)

Nonpartisan.

sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute uh uh

A pure white burlap cloth was gently clad over the ancient sword in the shape of a pine tree.

The blade was already well-maintained so that it did not need to be polished further, but the person who polished the sword wiped it with a serious attitude, as if performing an important ceremony.

The person who had been looking at the clean day like a mirror for a long time put down his sword.

“Whoa.”

A sigh escaped The sword was cleansed, but his mind was still blotchy and tumultuous.

And then, a voice came from outside.

“Are you in the Jangmun-in? It’s Heoshan.”

The shaman's long doorman, Dojin Heo, slowly raised his head and looked at the door.

“What happened?”

“There are things that the Jangmun-in should know.”

“Come in.”

Heo Dojin-in pushed the sword in and set it aside. Soon, Sanja Heo, who entered the room, took a bow and sat down in front of him.

“Long Moon Man.”

Then he opened his mouth with a slight hesitancy.

“It is said that the volcanic faction that went to Hyeongsan subjugated all of them, including the Daebyeolchae, which was occupying Nokchae, the Hyeolrangchae and the Jeokungchae.”

“… … .”

“I heard that they cleared all three living quarters and suffered very little damage.”

“Ummm.”

In the end, an unbearable moan leaked out of Huh Do-jin's mouth.

'Is it a volcano again?'

Most of the news these days seemed to be about volcanic waves.

In fact, if you think about it common sense, it couldn't be. The shaman's long gate is the seat of the ruler of the world. It is also a place to listen to all kinds of gossip floating around the world.

So, to be precise, it would have to be said that the news that made him worried and uncomfortable came only from the volcano.

“Did you say he didn’t take any major damage?”

"Yes. It seems so.”

“As far as I know, Huashan has almost no great disciples. And I know that the great disciples are also young swordsmen who have not even reached the point of liberation. Am I right?”

“As far as I know.”

Heo Do-jin's face hardened slightly.

“It is clear that the shaman did not suffer any damage while subjugating all three wild plants, mainly with children who were still only in the late stage.”

“… … .”

Heo San-ja did not have to answer. Because I knew it wasn't a question to confirm the facts.

"volcano… … . volcanic waves... … .”

Heo Dojin-in's face, who had been muttering softly, darkened a little.

'I thought it was unusual for a long time.'

It was now an undeniable fact that the volcanic late exponents outperformed the shaman's late exponents. Haven't they already proven their power over and over again?

However, this incident directly proves that their power has gone beyond the level that can only be evaluated as a later index.

“I never know.”

Heo Dojin-in said in a low, subdued voice.

“Even if we gather and teach the most talented children in the world, such growth is impossible. But, how did the volcano, which until recently had not been able to tell when the signboard would be lowered, have raised children so much?”

Heo Dojin-in's face, who does not show emotions well for any reason, was young with dark aging.

I knew it wasn't, but every time I heard about the incomprehensible growth of that volcano, it seemed the world kept blaming him for his incompetence.

The face of San-ja Heo who was paying attention to the eyes of Do-Jin Heo, who was holding back aging by taking a deep breath, entered.

“Is there anything else to tell you?”

“… … that… … .”

Heo San-ja hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly opened his mouth.

“There are people who criticize the text for this.”

"criticism?"

“… … Yes."

“What do you mean by suddenly being criticized for what the text did?”

"that… … Even though he was not far from the large annex, he said that he did not subdue and looked down on him… … .”

“… … .”

Heo Do Jin-in, lost for words, opened his mouth slightly without realizing it.

Daebyeolsan Mountain and Mudangsan Mountain, where Daebyeolchae is located, are located in the same Hubuk.

“In the meantime… … Those who thought that even a shaman could not do anything, seems to have changed their minds when the volcano in Seomseo came to Hyeongsan and subjugated the large annex.”

“How could that be!”

Heo Do-jin's voice rose.

“Isn’t the Daebyeonchae a part of Nokrim? If we subjugated the Great Byeolchae, we must be prepared to wage war against the green forest! The reason that the volcano was able to subdue the large annex was because there was confidence that it would not turn into a war against green forests!”

big appetizer?

That kind of thing could be wiped out at any time by the shaman himself.

However, the large annex is only one of the seventy-two wild houses in that green forest. Even as a shaman, it was by no means an easy task to bear all the seventy-two wild vegetables.

It was clear that the other old factions would only watch while waiting for the shaman's power to be cut down, as long as the other old factions didn't cause damage to themselves.

But by what means does the shaman subdue the Daebyeolchae?

“Of course it is. But… … .”

Heo San-ja takes a deep breath.

“The problem is that the critics don’t even consider the circumstances. From the outside, isn't it correct that the volcano subjugated the great annex in Hubei, the realm of the shaman?”

“… … .”

Heo Do Jinin suppressed Chimi's anger and tightly closed his eyes.

As Heo San-ja said, it was unreasonable to expect ordinary people to understand such a conflict. They only see what they see.

“The sound of praising the volcano is reaching the sky. When you go out, you can only hear the sound of the volcano. It makes me wonder who is deliberately spreading rumors.”

"after!"

Heo Do Jin-in sighed heavily and clenched his fists tightly.

'This is not something to be overlooked.'

If the reputation of the volcano increases, the damage will be inflicted on the shaman.

“First, I have to appease the public. Prepare the disciples.”

“How can the disciples… … ?”

“Isn’t it Hyeongsan where Daebyeolchae was subjugated? There may still be remnants of those parties in Daebyeolsan Mountain. It's already late, but shouldn't we pretend to move?"

"that… … .”

"know. Losing cattle and fixing the stalls. But it's better to fix a stall if you lose a cow than to let it go and do nothing."

“Well, it’s not… … .”

"Well?"

Heo Sanja, who was restless, quietly spat out a word.

"that… … It is said that a volcano is going to Daebyeolsan.”

“What did you say? They say they go to Daebyeolsan?”

"Yes."

"Why?"

“No, as you said, to clean up the remnants of the large annex… … .”

Woodduck!

The edge of the teatak that Heo Do-jin-in grabbed broke apart.

"this… … .”

As his face burned red, Heo San-ja quickly closed his mouth.

Heo San-ja has been watching Heo Do-jin all his life. But I had never seen him so angry.

“Not only the shaman, but the entire Goo Pilebang has lost face! volcano! That volcano!”

The reason Huh Do-jin is so angry is not because Hwasan has preempted what they should do.

'A bandit who has lost the leader anyway is bound to disintegrate and organize itself.'

Even though Heo Do knew this, he dared to go out and try to appease the public. And the volcano wouldn't be unaware of this fact.

In other words, this movement of the volcano means that it contains malicious intent to destroy the reputation of the shaman on this occasion.

“Why the hell did this have to happen like this?”

It was unbelievable that things could get so twisted because of a trivial subjugation of a bandit.

no.

It was the same at the time of the sword gun and at the Cheonhabi Dance Competition in the first place. Was there any coincidence that the volcano had intervened and went as expected?

“Now that you have earned a reputation by crushing the old world, you will try to use that reputation. Then, soon, that Cheonwoo-beng or something will open the door!”

“… … .”

"Not good. This is so bad.”

In the original case, it would not have attracted much attention. However, as the volcano did this, all eyes of the Central Plains were focused on the volcano. Of course, the opening of Cheon Woo Meng will also draw the attention of Jeon Joong Won.

Cheon Woo-maeng, who had to spend several years just opening and publicizing the name without receiving much attention, will make his name known in the entire Jungwon at once.

Performance breeds fame, and fame attracts attention. And interest eventually leads to influence.

The influence that Suro Hwasan and Cheon Woo Maeng would have had far exceeded the level expected by Do Jin-in Heo in the first place.

“I can’t stand still!”

Heo Dojin-in, who had been pensive in thought, abruptly got up from his seat.

“Get ready. I am going to Shaolin.”

"cow. Did you say Shaolin?”

"okay."

There was a glimmer of light in his eyes.

“I need to meet the boss.”

* * *

“What did you say now?”

“I couldn’t stop it.”

Heo Do-jin's eyes were distorted at the calm voice of the court heard from the other side.

However, the court's expression in the face of such a heodo was only mild.

“Chief.”

“Tell me, old man.”

“Are you saying that because you don’t know what the consequences of what is happening now?”

“… … .”

Heo Dojin-in stared at the courtroom with cold eyes.

“That place called Cheonwoomeng is not a place to think so easily. Despite the fact that the stalwart clans are united, it is definitely something to be wary of when the western part of the Central Plains becomes their territory!”

“… … In the west, there are Kunlun, and there are shopkeepers and ARMYs, right? The West will not be wholly theirs just because of the Thunder Blindness.”

“So that’s no problem!”

The unbearable Heo Do screamed.

“If a mang is formed there, a clash with the existing clan is inevitable! This is because it only divides Kang-ho for nothing! When remnants of magic were discovered in the North Sea, should we make a transfer helmet among ourselves?”

Despite hearing the angry shouts, the court's expression was like a lake without ripples.

“What do you want the So-seung to do?”

“You have to stop it.”

“… … .”

Heo Dojin-in said with a determined face.

“We must prevent them from becoming more famous than necessary, and from chasing the world by making more money than necessary. Isn’t that what Kang-ho really does?”

The court quietly pushed the teacup in front of him toward Heo Do-jin. At first, it seemed to contain the meaning of calming down.

Heo Do Jin-in looked at the steaming teacup with his hardened face.

There was silence for a moment between the two.

The court was the first to break that long silence.

“It’s not that I don’t know the feelings of a writer who came to this place in a month or so.”

“… … .”

“But that's not something I can do. The factions that are not even in the old file room are said to have united and formed a gang, for what reason would I stop that?”

Heo Do-jin-in asked in a cold tone at the court's words.

“Can’t you stop it?”

“… … .”

“Or does it not stop?”

The court did not answer.

“This is not just my opinion. There are a lot of people who think that it is harmful to Kangho to do something like that. It’s just that the host just tolerates it, so no one speaks first.”

“Ummm.”

“But if the chief says this to the end, there is no way for me to do it.”

Heo Do-jin jumped up from his seat.

“You got a good cup of tea.”

“Long Moon Man.”

“Take care, chief. see you again."

And without waiting for an answer, he went out.

The eyes of the court, who were left alone, turned to the teacup placed in front of the seat where Heo Dojin-in was sitting. He hadn't drank a single sip, so he was full.

“Chief.”

The legal world, which appeared through the wide open door, looked into his eyes.

“Who are you?”

“You left without looking back.”

“Well, he seems like a quick-tempered person.”

As the court shook its head, the legal circle spoke in a low voice.

“I didn’t mean to listen, but my voice was so high that I overheard it unintentionally.”

“How can you stop me from hearing it?”

The court said it calmly, as if it was not a big deal. The court lowered his head and carefully opened his mouth.

“Chief. I don't think the shaman's words are so wrong."

“Is that so?”

"Yes. The one who blocks the opening of Cheon Woo Meng... … .”

The court quietly raised its head and looked at him and asked.

“Is it because Cheon Woo Meng is disturbing Kang Ho?”

“Isn’t it… … .”

“Aren’t you afraid that Cheon Woo Meng will take away the little fame and authority you hold in your hand?”

“… … .”

“It’s special.”

The court laughed softly.

'I'd rather give out the money, the volcanic God Dragon is pure.'

His mouth discusses Kang-ho's safety and peace, but inside he is full of greed to never let go of what he has in his hands.

'I am no different.'

Taking a deep breath, the court turned his gaze to his window and looked into the distant sky.

However, only one suspicion remained unanswered.

'It's too cunning.'

It is a law that cannot be solved this way. Everything is flowing perfectly, as if everything were ready for the volcano and the Thousand Rains.

This was impossible with only the power of the volcano.

Doesn't it look like someone is pushing the volcano against him to get fame?

“Amitabha.”

The court that left the dislike quietly closed its eyes.

'Maybe it all started already.'

When I opened my eyes again, dark clouds were rolling in from beyond the distant sky.
