Beastly and Fearlessly - Chapter 58
Only Noblemtl
Episode 58
We entered Sacheon Seo Chang-hyeon.
This is where the Cheongseongpa, Amipa, and Sacheondangga are located.
Of course, our goal is Hubei, where the Murim Alliance is located, so we’ll just pass by.
“Can I ask you one question?”
Umochi asked.
“You can do multiple.”
“Why did you ask that of the ladies? Of course, I understand why you want to talk about it after easily defeating the Seven Blood Demon Sword, who is listed among the top 100 masters of Sapa.”
“I hate being bothered.”
“No, that’s why I keep this even more of a secret… … .”
No matter how much of a piece of trash he was, he was still an elder of the Guiyummun, one of the twelve apostles.
Besides, the Geumbuhoe was a black group of considerable size that had established itself in Gonmyeong.
A place like that was destroyed overnight.
There is no way that I can just ignore this as if it were someone else’s business.
“The leader of the Guiyin Clan, Gu Yeom-bu, is a man who is a sect to the core. He is very proud of the Guiyin Clan that he founded. It is true that he is a bad guy, but he also treats his subordinates with utter horror. I killed the elder of that Guiyin Clan.”
But maybe he won’t chase me.
Guyeombu is a warrior who always ridicules the hypocrisy of the political faction and detests the evil martial arts of the Demonic Cult.
“But what if there were rumors that Gil Pil-jong, the elder of the Gwi-eum-mun, was secretly learning magic? What about the ugly rumors that he took the living heart of a woman and took her yin energy? And what’s more, with the power he gained in that way, he couldn’t even fight a single barbarian from the South?”
At first you will be confused and then angry, but soon you will realize it.
The more I bring up this incident, the more my name and that of Gwi-eum-moon will fall to the ground.
Just because they commit bad deeds doesn’t mean they have no honor.
“It’s probably one of two things. Either it goes by like nothing happened, or… … .”
“or not?”
“You must be curious about what kind of guy Namcheon Damdong’s Dammyeong is.”
The sea I wanted.
It wasn’t my intention, but somehow I ended up with a connection to the ghost story.
Now we just have to wait and see how they approach it.
“I also have a question for you, Umochi.”
“Haha. What are you curious about from a man like me who has no secrets? Why do women fall for me? Or the secrets of Taehwajeongryukdan? Feel free to ask.”
Umochi said, whining.
“You… can’t kill a person?”
“… … .”
Umochi, who was told to ask anything, suddenly became a mute who had eaten honey.
I’m curious, but I don’t want to press you.
Of course, it is better to save than to kill.
The problem is that in the future, there will often be situations where I might die if I don’t kill the opponent.
Umochi, who had been walking for a long time looking at the ground, opened his mouth in a calm voice.
“I learned how to kill people with poison from the moment I was born. With a knife in my hand, the most I could do was cut the neck and stab the heart, but with poison, there were hundreds of ways to do it. I learned them all… … .”
Nok Seung-seo and I listened to his words in silence.
Maybe it was something I wanted to tell someone.
“Blood gushing from every orifice in your body, your skin and organs melting away. A cup of tea can make you go blind, and a glass of alcohol can make you bite your own tongue in unbearable pain. … … Isn’t that truly horrible?”
Perhaps there is something more terrible than giving death to someone.
“I didn’t want to kill people. That’s why I left Dokgok. I don’t plan on killing anyone anymore. That’s why I don’t plan on going back home. Does that answer your question?”
Dokgokju Wooryang had eight children.
I heard that among them, Umochi, the sixth, is the most talented.
They say that at the age of five, he killed a wild boar the size of a house with a single drop of poison that he mixed on his own.
If I hadn’t wandered around the Central Plains, I would have inherited the position of a grain merchant.
“I see. It’s much better than a bloodthirsty, crazy murderer. But there may come a time when you have to bend your convictions. That’s what martial arts are… That’s what martial arts are.”
He has already mastered all the poisons of the South.
There is a difference between not knowing and forgetting what you know.
One day, someone will appear who you hate more than the poison you hate so much.
Then you will be overcome with the desire to kill him.
It is difficult for a person who already holds a knife in his hand to resist that desire.
Just approach him quietly and cut his throat.
The same goes for Umochido.
All it takes is a drop of poison in a teacup.
That’s why Kang Ho-ran is ruthless.

Sacheondangga.
The ancestor of magic and poison.
There was a time when it was not recognized as a political party.
Because poison and secret weapons are considered to be vile means to unmanned vehicles.
So, the Tang clan lived together in one place.
He strictly followed his vision for his blood relatives and put the interests of his family first.
The place was given the name Danggata, and the entire village became a sect.
That is why it is also called Tangmun (唐門).
After enduring hundreds of years, it is now recognized as a prestigious family representing the Central Plains.
“The world has changed. Now our party is a prestigious family with a clear political sect. Come and show us a proud side of yourself.”
The head of the Sacheondang family, the Dark Emperor Tang Yunping, opened his mouth.
The Sogaju Dangwimyeong standing in front of him nodded.
But his true feelings before the Yongbong branch meeting were different.
‘The world praises and calls him a dark emperor, but my father does not fit in with the Tang family.’
In a fair fight, he never used poison, and he revealed in advance which secret weapon he would use.
The recipes for various antidotes that had been passed down through the family’s vision were revealed.
Thanks to these efforts, the party has now established itself as a respected member of the political party.
The father, who is the owner of the house, is proud of that fact.
‘No. No. Father, you shouldn’t have done that. A party that no one is afraid of… … Sigh.’
The party has become too weak.
The Sacheondangga must always be an object of fear.
We must live up to the declaration that kindness will be repaid twofold and enmity tenfold.
Those who make the Tang family their enemy will live in fear for the rest of their lives.
You have to hesitate even when eating a bowl of rice or a glass of alcohol, in case it might be poisoned.
The sound of falling leaves makes you curl up as if you were trying to avoid a cold.
That’s how afraid we should be.
That is the true face of Sacheondangga.
“Can I lead the evil spirit group?”
The Sa-Baek-Dan is the main combat unit of the Tang family, with all members being first-class or above.
Everyone is skilled in poison and memorization, and the sole owner, Seo Do-gwang, is a master who has reached the peak.
He is also a person who thinks like the owner of the cow.
“It seems excessive to be entrusted with the escort of Sogaju who is leaving for Yongbongjihoe… … .”
“It is to show the proud appearance of a prestigious political party, as my father said.”
In fact, there was another reason why Dang Wi-myeong wanted to lead Sa-baek-dan.
‘I have to pick a guy who’s easygoing. A guy who I can trample on mercilessly without any repercussions… ‘
You can make as many civic items as you want.
The important thing is to show the true face of the party.
So that no one in the world would think of making an enemy of the Tang family.
“I heard that the Bukhae Ice Palace and the Namman Wild Beast Palace will also be attending this Yongbong Branch Meeting. You shouldn’t treat them lightly just because they are new. Now, you are the face of the Tang family.”
“Okay, but who will be attending the Namman Beast Palace?”
“Ah. I heard that he is not a descendant of the Beast King. He is probably from one of the families of the Eight Kingdoms. Since I don’t know the meaning of the invitation, I guess he is sending an appropriate guy from an appropriate family.”
Sogaju Dangwimyeong answered with a bitter smile.
“Just in time… … . It’s just right.”
* * *
Sacheon Daryangsan Mountain.
As I walked along the road, I soon arrived at the foot of Mt. Daryang.
It is a mountain with frequent travel by foreigners as it is located on the border with Chongqing.
Thanks to this, the road is well-paved and large enough to accommodate carriages even when entering the mountains.
“No, you came all the way to Sacheon and just went without stopping by Geumyangru? That’s ridiculous… … .”
Umochi grumbled with an expression as if the world was ruined.
“What on earth is in Geumyangru? Are the noodles tasty?”
Nok Seung-seo, who had always been a dark and gloomy man, fell in love with the taste of Jungwon’s noodles.
Of course, your training with me never stops.
During the day, except for the time spent eating and breathing, I am always practicing.
Besides, on dark nights I make surprise attacks without warning.
This is also training.
So far, Nok Seung-seo has died to me thirteen times.
Of course, during that time, Umochi never opened his eyes even once.
“Oh my. You, Nok Seung-seo, have been stuck in Namman all your life, so you really don’t know anything. Tsk tsk. I heard there’s a Hwa-wol at Geumyang-ru. Don’t you know the famous Hwa-wol?”
“I don’t know.”
“Ugh. You’ll probably fall in love at first sight, too. Half of the blood flowing through her is from a man. How did that come about? Long ago… … .”
Nok Seung-seo and I are the same age.
Umochi is three years older.
But we still stay as friends.
I was lost in thought while watching the two people bickering.
There are two reasons why I attend the Yongbong branch meeting.
I am a warrior of the Beast Palace.
So, we must show the power of the Beast Palace to those Central Plains guys who ignore Namman.
To the scum of the world, the South must be a more frightening place than the Central Plains.
A place where strong masters abound.
If we instill that kind of awareness, only other people will become safer.
The other one has to do with my death.
I still don’t know why I had to die or who was behind it.
If the curtain of the Salmak belonging to the Twelve Apostles can move, then there must be something huge behind it.
I guess we’ll figure it out little by little.
First of all, it’s a priority to quietly assess the situation.
As it turned out, he killed one of the hundred greatest masters of Sapa and destroyed the Kunming Jinbu Society.
No more noise is needed.
So now I was thinking of quietly heading to Hubei where the Murim Alliance was.
At that moment, the tofu that had been sleeping in his arms popped its head out and turned towards the other side of the mountain.
Kyaaaaaa.
He grumbled as if he didn’t like something.
At the same time, Umochi also sniffed and muttered.
“Hmm… … It smells familiar. It’s not good.”
Umochi turned his head towards the direction the wind was blowing.
At the end of his gaze, about thirty horses were running towards us, kicking up a cloud of dust.
In the middle of it all, a large carriage was running along.
“What’s not good about it?”
Umochi answered Nokseungseo’s question.
“This foul smell that comes on the wind. It’s the kind of smell that comes from guys who handle poison all day long.”
The guys who had been running fast noticed us and started to slow down.
Dark green uniform.
A strong poisonous scent that makes Umochi react from a distance.
The single character ‘唐’ embroidered on the left chest.
Besides, isn’t this Sacheon now?
All of this points to one place in the world.
The Poison Gate, representing the Central Plains.
A family well versed in all kinds of magic, whipping techniques, and even goldsmithing.
A place you should never leave behind.
Sacheondangga!
A carriage crossing the Daryang Mountains and heading to Hubei.
Dozens of unmanned personnel escorting him and his followers following behind.
I guess I’ll have to attend the Yongbong branch meeting.
I haven’t seen it, but I have a rough idea.
A person who believes that Sacheondangga is at the center of the world.
A guy with strong pride and no shame, but who is called a genius when it comes to poison.
Justification.
Rattling, creaking.
A carriage stopped in front of us, although it wasn’t blocking the road.
About thirty people surrounded the carriage and looked at us with curious eyes from their horses.
The guy in the lead looks like he’s at his peak.
There are two other climaxes.
The rest of them look like first-class men.
Rattling.
After a while the carriage door opened.
Are they about the same age as us?
A sharp-looking man asked me without even getting out of the carriage.
In an arrogant tone, as if asking a question to a subordinate.
“Is this the road from Nanman to Hubei?”
“Yes.”
There is no need to be polite to a person who speaks informally to you when you first meet him.
And I’m a savage who doesn’t know manners anyway.
I guess the escorts didn’t like my informal speech.
The men on the horse quietly put their hands on their waists.
“Then, maybe at the Namman Beast Palace… … Hehe. Oh. Sorry. The name Beast Palace is a bit funny. Anyway, you’re saying that you came all the way here from far away just to see the Central Plains? And you did it on foot. Hehe.”
Look at that little brat’s rude speech.
I also don’t like the way he looks up and down like he’s watching a monkey.
Somehow it feels like they’re deliberately picking a fight.
I don’t know if this is his original personality or if he trusts his escorts who are giggling on horseback.
It doesn’t matter.
Anyway, I’m a savage who doesn’t know manners.
So I answered.
“I didn’t come here to see you. Get out.”
