Episode 536: The Relationship Has Ended, So We Must Break Up

After a while, Han Su-chae’s body trembled slightly, and people were startled and took a few steps back. This demon was violent and could attack people at any time.

People wondered how Yongjin tamed this beast.

Hansoo Chae-ah slowly opened her eyes and saw that she was surrounded by people. She struggled to get up, but her wounds made it difficult for her to get up.

“You’re badly hurt right now. Even if we don’t kill you, you’ll die if you keep going like this. I’ll give you two choices. First, if you take us out of here, we’ll treat your wounds. We’ll let you go as soon as we reach our destination. Second, if you refuse, we won’t kill you. But you’ll still die here and be eaten by another demon.”

Yongjin said to Hansoochaeah.

Mokseol was confused. Could this demon be a beast that could understand human speech? If it spoke, could it understand? If it could understand human speech, would it be a beast or a human?

They didn’t know that Yongjin was using his soul power to move Hansoo Chae-ah. Although Ma-su couldn’t understand Yongjin’s words, he knew what he meant.

Originally, Yongjin could have directly shot the old man to stop him from rebelling against Hansoo Chaeah, but he didn’t do that.

Once the old man is captured, the demon will follow Yongjin’s orders with all his might. However, Yongjin did not like this method.

After a while, Hansoo Chae-ah surprisingly leaned her huge head lightly in front of Yongjin’s body.

“You don’t need a soul seal. I trust you.”

Yongjin smiled and gently stroked Hansoo Chae-ah.

Yongjin could sense a strong desire to survive in Hansoo Chaeah’s emotions. Hansoo Chaeah chose to cooperate because she did not want to die.

Besides, Hansoo Chae-ah was not only a weakling, but also a strong demon who knew about the soul seal.

People were surprised when Yongjin subdued Hansoo Chae-ah with just a few words.

But what’s more surprising is that Yongjin gave Hansoo Chaeah a list of hundreds of products at a glance.

These elixirs were not refined by Yongjin, but were spoils of war obtained from the Goguryeo Secret Realm. They were common elixirs, so they did not catch Yongjin’s eye.

He had no need to use the Yo Sang Dan anymore, and since the Yong Hyeol Corps’ Yong Sang Dan was a Yo Sang Dan of the Sam Hyeon or higher level that he had refined, he had no need for such an ordinary Yo Sang Dan.

After Yongjin fed Hansoo Chaeah the Yosangdan, he made her rest. When Hansoo Chaeah recovered tomorrow, she would be able to fly slowly, so the mercenary group would no longer need to walk.

That night, when all the members of the mercenary group had entered a state of training, Mokseol called Yongjin aside.

“Yongjin, I know you are not of ordinary origin. However, in any force, there is oppression and exclusion. Are you really not willing to join us? If you join us, I will change the name of the mercenary group to your name and give you the position of regiment commander.”

In the dark of the night, Mokseol and Yongjin climbed up the cliff and talked quietly.

Yongjin sighed as he looked at the mercenary group’s tent at the bottom of the cliff.

“I appreciate your interest, Commander Mokseol. However, I cannot join the Mokseol Mercenary Corps.”

Mokseol asked.

“Why? Is it because you can’t give up your identity?”

Yongjin opened his mouth while looking at the bright moon floating in the sky.

“You misunderstand. I am not a disciple of Sega, I am just an ordinary person.

The reason I chose not to join the mercenary group is not because I looked down on the Mokseol mercenary group. I like the atmosphere of the mercenary group where everyone gets along well like a family.

So you guys are good, but I am a disaster in and of myself and I will be a burden to you. That is why I cannot join.”

Mokseol said while looking at Yongjin.

“As you know, there are no cowards in our mercenary group.”

“Just think of me as a selfish person. You may not be afraid of death, but I am.

If I join you, the entire mercenary group may die because of me.

After everyone dies like that, you’ll have to bear the pain all alone. So just think of me as a heartless person.”

Pain was reflected in Yongjin’s eyes.

He is a man who goes against the heavenly way. To fight with him, you must have a very strong fate. If your fate is not strong, you will all die.

The high-spirited core disciples who fought alongside Yongjin in the Jeongsa War were all killed when they left Goguryeo Secret Palace, except for a few, including Gok Yang.

On the path of a practitioner, life and death must follow the will of Heaven, but Yong Jin felt uneasy about the fact that so many people had died due to Eunmu-ssang’s false accusations.

Because his actions could have resulted in the death of others, Yongjin became increasingly cautious.

This is precisely why he kept a certain distance from people.

The Mokseol Mercenary Corps is an elite force, so if trained well, it will be of great help.

But Yongjin really liked them. That’s why he didn’t want to drag them into the whirlpool of death. They had barely found their way in life, so he couldn’t mess that up.

“Yongjin, is there something going on?”

Mokseol’s heart trembled when she saw the sadness reflected in Yongjin’s eyes.

“If I were to tell that story, it would be too long to finish in words.”

Yongjin said with a bitter smile.

“Then… can you tell me?”

Mokseol said in a low voice.

Yongjin looked at Mokseol and said.

“Thank you, Commander. I will never forget the Mokseol Mercenary Corps. I will never forget my brothers and the Commander.

Oh, by the way, it’s time for Hansoo Chae-ah to take her medicine. If she doesn’t take it now, she won’t be able to fly tomorrow. Then I’ll go first.”

Yongjin said goodbye to Mokseol and ran quickly to where Hansoo Chae-ah was.

Mokseol felt sad as she looked at Yongjin’s back.

Leading the mercenary band alone for several years was too difficult and exhausting for her.

The next morning, Hansoo Chae-ah had recovered a lot of her energy, and she slowly crouched down as Yong-jin approached.

“Yongjin, is this really okay? We won’t all end up as fish food if we fall off along the way, right?”

Changmu said with a worried expression.

“Don’t worry. Even if you become fish food, you’ll be the biggest one among them.”

Yongjin glanced at Changmu’s sturdy physique and then spoke with a calm expression.

The two girls burst into laughter at Yongjin’s words. However, Mokseol remained silent as if she was in a bad mood.

“let’s go.”

Everyone climbed onto Hansuchaeah. When Yongjin gave Hansuchaeah an order, Hansuchaeah spread her wings wide and flew high into the sky.

As Hansoo Chae-ah rose through the clouds in an instant, people were shocked and their faces turned blue. If they fell from such a high place, they would all die.

“Yongjin, can you fly a little lower? I’m too scared.”

The girl, her face pale, grabbed Yongjin and spoke.

“If you fly low, you might be attacked by the demons. It’s not scary, but Hansoo Chae-ah’s body has just recovered, so it would be dangerous if she were to be attacked.

Everyone, there’s no need to be afraid! After a little while, if you go up a thousand more chapters, it won’t be scary!”

Yongjin said with a smile.

Hansoo Chae-ah rose again to the sky and began to fly in a balanced manner. Only then did the fear disappear. Since a thin layer of clouds was blocking the view below, it was not scary visually.

“Hansoo Chae-ah will fly steadily, so you can enjoy the scenery while you go, and if you’re scared, you can close your eyes and take a breath.”

Yongjin said.

The guys who were afraid of Yongjin’s words started to look at the scenery to show that they weren’t scared. When they saw that, Yongjin couldn’t help but laugh.

“That’s really fast. If we keep going like this, we’ll be able to get to Cheongju in one night.”

Mokseol was surprised by Hansoo Chaeah’s fast speed and spoke in admiration.

“We won’t arrive that early. Hansoo Chae-ah’s wounds have only partially healed, so after a half-day flight, we’ll need to rest for one night. But it’s much faster than our full-speed sprint, so we should be able to arrive in Cheongju in three days.”

Yongjin explained.

Mokseol nodded without saying anything. As noon approached, Yongjin slowly pushed Hansu Chae-ah down and landed her on the wide lakeside.

Even though I took a large amount of the supplement, my body was too big and I was using up more strength.

So they rested one night by the lakeside, and set out again the next day. They traveled for half a day and rested for the night, and on the third day, they left the endless mountains.

Although there were still about 30,000 li left until Cheongju Castle, Yongjin stopped Hansoo Chae-ah.

Everyone jumped down from Hansoo Chae-ah’s back, and Yongjin took out a large amount of elixir and fed it to Hansoo Chae-ah again.

“Okay. With this, we’ve kept our promise to each other. Just take this elixir and your wounds will heal. Now, go home.”

Yongjin looked at Hansoo Chaeah and said.

The reason Yongjin let her go so early was because Hansoo Chae-ah could be discovered and killed by another strong man when they got close to Cheongju Castle.

Hansoo Chae-ah suddenly began to cry softly, and rubbed Yongjin’s body affectionately with her big head. It seemed as if she did not want to leave because of the kindness that Yongjin had shown her.

People were impressed. Everyone said that demons were cruel beasts, but sometimes demons were more human than people.

“As promised, I healed your wounds, and you helped us and guided us along the way. Now, you can leave. Our relationship ends here.”

Yongjin lightly patted Hansoo Chaeah’s head and said

Hansoo Chae-ah felt regretful for a long time, then spread her wings and flew into the sky. However, she did not have any intention of leaving and just circled around in the air a few times.

“Go ahead.”

Yongjin said with a sigh.

Only then did Hansoo Chae-ah flap her wings with a clear sound, then rise high into the sky and disappear from sight.

Looking at the direction Hansoo Chae-ah had left, Yong-jin sighed inwardly. Even demons know kindness and try to repay it, so why do people repay kindness with enmity?

The devil knows how to be grateful, but what about people? Even a small favor can become a transaction.

The warriors of the Mokseol Mercenary Corps also couldn’t help but feel regretful. Mokseol thought back to what Yongjin had just said.

‘The relationship is over, so we have to part ways.’

Could it be that they and Yongjin will end up like Hansoo Chae-ah?

Mokseol looked at Yongjin’s back with a complicated mind.

“There’s still half a day left on the journey, so let’s go.”

Mokseol swallowed his thoughts and spoke to the people.

Everyone nodded. It was noon now, so if we hurried our steps, we could arrive at Cheongju Castle before it got dark.
