Episode 577: I Can’t Just Bow Down
“This is our Eun family’s Tongmaek Yeongam fruit tree. It used to be full of life, but now… You’ll have to give me a proper explanation of this.”
The old man spoke angrily.
Yoni Myung and Yoni Cheon were surprised when they saw the tree. If it was a large Tongmaek Yeongam fruit tree, it would have probably lived for many years.
The tree certainly looked like it was about to die. But it was impossible to tell why just by looking at it. Yoni Ming frowned and said.
“Senior, I don’t know what you mean. Don’t trees also have birth, aging, illness, and death? This is clearly because their lifespan is coming to an end, and it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with our auction house.”
“Don’t make me laugh, saying that their lifespan is over. How can all three hundred or so Tongmaek Yeongam fruit trees planted in our Eun family’s medicinal herb field wither away at once?
“All Tongmaek Yeongam fruit trees have a lifespan of over a hundred thousand years. Most of the Tongmaek Yeongam fruit trees that we have painstakingly grown have only lived for about ten thousand years. How can their lifespan have ended?”
The old man of the Eun family shouted and said.
The old man’s eyes turned red. The mysterious soil that Eunmu-sang had brought was originally used to grow hundreds of medicinal herbs, not Tongmaek Yeongam fruit trees.
Then, during an experiment, they discovered that if they used a magic wand to put spiritual energy into the mysterious soil, the medicinal herbs would grow strong as if they had been grown for over ten years.
However, they did not immediately conduct an experiment on the Tongmaek Yeongam fruit tree. They continued to observe the main body of the rare medicinal herb and the fruit for two weeks to see if there were any abnormalities.
After observing for two weeks and finding no abnormalities, the Eun family finally relaxed and chose an old tree with only a few hundred years left to experiment again.
The result was a great success. Under the urging of the young man, the old tree began to grow again, brimming with life.
At the urging of Quyingjin, the mysterious soil began to emit a unique energy and quickly caused the old tree to bloom. After three days, the large tree was covered in thousands of vein-like fruits.
The Eun family was overjoyed, because in three days, one old tree produced as much revenue as three hundred trees would produce in ten years.
The happiest thing is that the old tree that was losing its vitality is now brimming with life as if it was reborn.
After observing and experimenting in this way for several times, the Eun family completely put aside their doubts and immediately sprinkled the mysterious soil on all of the Tongmaek Yeongam fruit trees, thereby greatly promoting their growth.
Not only did they get a lot of fruit, but they also added vitality to all the orchards. Regardless of their status, the Eun family members were filled with joy.
The Eun family was sad that they didn’t have any more of this mysterious soil. So they secretly sent people to investigate and find out who sold this mysterious soil.
If they could find out where this mysterious soil came from and have more of it, the Eun family would be able to rise to fame overnight. Until then, no one knew that terrible news would be delivered.
The atmosphere in the Eun family became as cold as if cold water had been poured on them when they heard the news that Eun Mu-sang’s clone had been murdered.
The fact that Eunmu-sang had a clone was a secret that only five people in the Eun family knew about. However, the moment Eunmu-sang ran out of the closed room and roared toward the sky, the peaceful atmosphere of the Eun family completely changed.
Although he possessed the mysterious soil, it was something that had its limits. On the other hand, Eunmu-sang was the hope that could revive the Eun family. Unless something special happened, it was already decided that Eunmu-sang would merge his clones and become this type of heavenly being.
As you become a practitioner of this quality, the closer you get to the heavenly path, the more you will receive the care of the heavenly path and the further you will be able to walk the path of practice.
The Eun family had pinned their hopes on Eun Mu-sang. However, that hope was shattered by Yong Jin.
Because of this, the Eun family’s union came out of the closed office and immediately called together all the strong members of the Eun family.
But then came the second bad news. After the mysterious soil was used up, the ‘sacredness’ disappeared. Eventually, the Tongmaek Yeongam fruit tree slowly began to wither.
The Eun family was shocked and panicked by the news. The Eun family had no herbal medicine fields or mines. They did not do business either. The family’s income came entirely from the Tongmaek Yeongam fruit tree. In other words, the Tongmaek Yeongam fruit tree was the Eun family’s lifeline.
When all the Tongmaek Yeongam fruit trees withered as if they were sick, the Eun family members were so shocked that their hearts felt like they were going to burst out of their throats.
Even though they opened the vines surrounding the Tongmaek Yeongam fruit tree and injected spiritual energy into the tree like crazy, the Tongmaek Yeongam fruit tree still showed no signs of improvement. The Eun family members were worried.
They did not know that this mysterious soil all came from Yongjin’s chaotic space. The soil in Yongjin’s chaotic space had the mysterious power to make all things grow just by Yongjin urging his spirit energy.
Yongjin added some ingredients to this mysterious soil. It was the strange black soil found at the center of the chaotic space.
After the chaos space was created, Yongjin did not give up and continued his research. While studying ordinary yellow soil, he discovered that this mysterious power soil could cause precious medicinal herbs to grow even outside the chaos space if the spirit energy was stimulated.
However, its effect was much weaker than that of the Chaos Space, and it even had a time limit. Once the power inside was energized, the mysterious power would disappear after three hours.
The mysterious soil is like a reservoir; when all the water inside is used up, it becomes ordinary soil.
On the other hand, the black soil in the space of chaos had the energy of death, which was the exact opposite of the yellow soil. These two, one saving life and one killing, were polar opposites.
Moreover, the durability of black soil was a hundred times that of yellow soil. This was precisely why Yongjin had put in so much effort to set up a trap.
The Eun family’s Tongmaek Yeongam fruit tree was nourished by the yellow soil, but was also permeated with the death energy of the black soil.
However, since the ratio of black soil to yellow soil is only one-tenth, the energy of death is initially suppressed.
So when the spirituality of the yellow soil disappeared, the suppressed power of the black soil slowly began to spread.
Because there is so little black soil, the explosion is very slow, but once it explodes, the Tongmaek Yeongam fruit tree begins to show signs of death within a day.
From the next day onwards, the leaves begin to fall, and after three days, the tree becomes permanently bare.
A beautiful woman may be beautiful when she takes off her clothes, but a skinny old woman cannot be beautiful when she is naked.
For three days, all the Tongmaek Yeongam fruit trees of the Eun family died. The Eun family’s elder brother was so angry that he eventually fainted.
When the union fainted and the person in charge disappeared, the upper echelons of the Eun family were in a state of panic and immediately called a meeting.
Everyone agreed that this was a trap aimed at the Eun family, and decided that they needed to consult with the Hwaun Auction House.
Because of the gravity of the matter, even the beheading of Eunmu Sang’s clone had to be put aside for a moment. Eunmu Sang’s clone, which had been damaged, would need several days of training to recover.
The most urgent task at hand was to go to the auction house, find the mastermind who had framed the Eun family, and make them hand over the antidote.
So, the Eun family dispatched a half-step number of strong men to the Hwaun auction house. The reason the entire family did not go out was because, no matter how angry they were, they could not use force against the Hwaun clan.
But I was so nervous that I couldn’t speak well and almost hurt Yoni’s feelings.
When the old man of the Eun family explained the progress of the case, Yonimyung said with an apologetic expression.
“Senior, on behalf of the Hwaun Order, I express my sympathy for what has happened to the Eun family. However, we at the Hwaun Auction House cannot be blamed for this incident……”
“Don’t make me laugh! If you don’t blame yourself for the stuff you sold, who else can you blame?”
The old man of the Eun family shouted with the veins on his neck rising.
Even though Yonimyung had a good personality, she spoke in a cold voice as if she was getting angry.
“Senior, please watch your words. No matter how much money they make, you should not insult them like that.
When we were auctioning off the mysterious soil, we said that we couldn’t know the history of this soil. We couldn’t confirm its true efficacy either, and that we were only selling it on behalf of others.
Please be cautious when purchasing Mysterious Earth, as there are risks involved. The auctioneer will hold the money for one month after receiving it.
If there is any problem with the mysterious soil within that month, Eunmu-sang will return the mysterious soil within the deadline and also return the money received.
But now it’s been a month and a half and we’ve already handed over the auction funds to the seller. Do you think it’s appropriate to be nitpicking like this now?
It is clearly written in the contract. Our freight auction house operates according to its duty without going against business ethics and is based on trust, so how could we deceive our customers?
However, you have been constantly criticizing our auction house for framing the Eun family. I think this is an insult to the Hwaun clan and a provocation. You should also provide an appropriate explanation for this.”
Although he had been running Hwaungak for a long time, this was the first time something like this had happened, so Yoni Myeong was angry. That’s why he called the elders of the Eun family “you” instead of “senior.”
“You… You… Don’t be stubborn!”
The old man of the Eun family became very angry.
“The mysterious soil you auctioned off was definitely poisoned. All the fruit trees in our Eun family died, and you’re still trying to make excuses?”
“If you know how to write, you can see what is written in this contract.
It is clearly stated above that Mysterious Soil is dangerous and should be purchased with caution.
“The Eun family is the one who forgot the danger while being intoxicated by the profits. Is it okay for them to curse us like this just because they suffered losses?”
Yonimyung said coldly.
“Brother……”
Yonicheon said urgently.
“Don’t interfere. They came here to cause trouble on purpose. It doesn’t break the rules for me to say this.
As merchants, we should naturally be humble when dealing with customers, but we cannot just bow down to these people who are causing such a ruckus.
Even if they sue, I believe the Jongmun will not let us be harassed.”
Yonimyung said.
“you…….”
As he spoke, the old man of the Eun family began to feel like a mean person, and his face turned pale and he began to tremble all over.
However, there was no way for Yonimyung to do so since he had a contract that Eunmu Sang had personally stamped.
