Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 114
Only Noblemtl
Episode 114. Things will return to the right path (2)
As Hanbin had thought before, the Demonic Cult had not moved yet.
Only the Blood Demon came to the Central Plains to find the inner sanctum of the Heavenly Mountain Blood Wolf.
Even if a seal is placed on the door, who would not collect their property if it ran away?
In that sense, the Demonic Cult only moved for a moment.
At that time, Musoyul asked with a worried look.
“I hope you find it. If I see Jeokryongdaehyeop on my way, I will definitely let you know.”
“Thank you, Miss Mu.”
“By the way, do you happen to know which way to Hanamjeongga? My group only knows the way by boat.”
“Hmm, then I’ll send someone for you.”
“I will gratefully accept your kindness. When I return to the Musi Sword House, I will definitely repay your kindness.”
The two women had something in common.
However, I never dreamed that the person I was looking for was the same person.
After politely accepting the offer, Musoyul looked at the number of people on the boat and shouted.
“Get down!”
At those words, the sailors on the boat became lost in thought.

At the same time, in front of Jeong Baek-hyun’s Seonhwa guest house.
Hanbin stopped as he was leaving the guest house and picked at his ears.
“Who is talking about me? This is strange.”
“Master, aren’t you being too sensitive these days?”
The storyteller who asked the question took a bite of the candy and skewer.
Hanbin smiled at that sight.
“Yes, I am a bit too sensitive in peaceful times like these.”
“Your Majesty, it doesn’t seem peaceful. The bloodletting incident and the like.”
“Hey, that’s something about Sapa and Jeokryongdaehyeop, it has nothing to do with me.”
Everyone’s mouths dropped open at Hanbin’s words.
Anyone who looked at Hanbin’s expression right now could tell he was talking about someone else.
Hanbin handed over a letter to Gwanggae.
“This is a letter for my master, so take good care of it. Don’t forget to deliver it as soon as possible.”
“Master? You had a master too?”
Gwanggae tilted his head and looked at the letter.
The name Mujeja was written there.
There was a rumor in the Habuk region that Hong Chil-gae had come forward and taken in disciples, but it had not yet spread to Hanam.
Actually, I should have asked about the traces of the eighteen steps of begging a long time ago.
However, Gwanggae thought it was his mistake and did not ask about it yet.
I didn’t think much of the current temple.
What was important to Gwanggae now was how much money he was making.
As Gwanggae folded the letter and put it in his bosom, Hanbin turned his gaze to Imoo-myeong.
“This escort, you must never be afraid in this matter.”
“Yes, my lord. You don’t have to worry about that. I have been through a lot.”
“By the way, hide that necklace so it can’t be seen.”
Hanbin personally put the necklace hanging around Imoo Myung’s neck inside his clothes.
When Sulwha was talking about the differences between Hanbin and Mumyung, she said that the most noticeable part was Mumyung’s necklace.
Lee Mu-myeong always wore a piece of wood with his last name, Lee, written on it around his neck.
As if it were some kind of talisman.
Imoo-myeong also pointed to Hanbin’s neck.
“Shouldn’t you put that away so that it can’t be seen by your lord?”
“Thank you, escort.”
Hanbin also tucked the small ornament around his neck into his clothes.
After greeting everyone, Hanbin tapped Jang Ja-myeong on the shoulder.
“Let’s go now, Representative Jang.”
“Master Sa, are we really going first?”
“Yes, we should go first.”
“There’s nothing dangerous, right?”
“Just do what you did at Cheonsujang. Then there’s absolutely no danger.”
“I’m a little anxious.”
Jang Ja-myeong narrowed his eyes and looked at Han Bin.
Actually, I wasn’t just a little anxious, I was very anxious.
Jang Ja-myeong was wearing the uniform of a member of the National Assembly, but Han Bin was also wearing the same uniform.
To a passerby, it looked like two lawmakers were walking side by side.
The plan was simple.
According to rumors, the head of the Hanam Jeongga family is getting increasingly sick.
The basic strategy was for Lee Mu-myeong to be in charge of transporting Cheongmyeong-hwan, and for him and Han Bin to arrive first and treat the family.
However, Jang Ja-myeong felt uneasy about this plan for some reason.
Hanbin said at that sight.
“Representative Jang, don’t you trust me?”
“Oh, that’s not it… … .”
Jang Ja-myeong laughed awkwardly, trailing off.
I couldn’t say I didn’t believe it, but I couldn’t say I did.
If asked to name the most untrustworthy person in the world, Jang Ja-myeong would name Han Bin without hesitation.
But to be honest, I’m afraid of the aftereffects.
As Hanbin took the lead with a smirk, Jang Ja-myeong walked forward weakly.
As the two moved out of sight, Imoo-myeong grabbed Seol-hwa and pulled her away.
“Now let us go in.”
“Yes, sir. We have to leave in two days anyway. Get some rest in the meantime. Oh, and bring some snacks with you.”
“Oh, I guess so.”
When Imoo-myeong nodded, Gwanggae approached.
“I think I should go for it.”
“Yes, please take a look.”
“But you know.”
“Please speak.”
“By any chance, is the person named Mujeja in this letter not our Hong Chil-gae?”
Gwanggae narrowed his eyes and waited for Imoo-myeong’s answer.
“That’s right, Mr. Hong Chil-gae.”
“Didn’t Peng Gongzi clearly say earlier that he was your master?”
“That’s right. The disciple that the great master Hong Chil-gae recently took in is our lord.”
“yes?”
Gwanggae opened his eyes wide and looked at the place where Hanbin had left.
It was a situation that I couldn’t understand at all.
Are you a direct descendant of Habukpengga and a disciple of Gaebong?
At that moment, Imoo-myeong continued speaking with a smile.
“I am a disciple in name only. However, that does not mean that my lord is open-minded. It seems that the elder Hong Chil-gae took me as his disciple because he coveted my lord’s talent.”
“Huh, even so… … .”
Gwanggae tilted his head as if he didn’t understand and took out the letter from his bosom again.
I touched it gently and found something inside the letter.
Gwanggae took it out and glanced at it, his eyes wide open.
There was a knot of openness there.
The red knot had turned black, perhaps due to the passage of time.
The knot of the open elders was correct.
What if that’s a red thread too?
The person who should deliver the letter was Hong Chil-gae.
If so, it is true that Hanbin is learning the 18 steps of begging.
I heard that in the open, no one has learned the Eighteen Steps of Begging at their age… … .
Hanbin, who looks younger than you, learned it?
Somehow, a sense of triumph arose.
Apart from that, if there is a red thread in it, it will be important.
I had to deliver this letter at the risk of my honor.
Gwanggae narrowed his eyes and disappeared from the spot without even saying goodbye to the two.
Sasa Sak.
Imoo-myeong narrowed his eyes as he saw the light suddenly disappear.
“What could it be?”
“I guess Gwanggae Sohyeop is in a hurry.”
“What do you mean? It’s a fairy tale.”
“I’m not going over there because I have urgent business to attend to.”
“haha!”
Imoo-myeong laughed in disbelief.
I didn’t hate Sulwha for giving absurd answers even in serious situations.
If you look closely, there seem to be some similarities between him and his lord, Hanbin.
Imoo-myeong walked towards a street vendor selling sweets.

Three days later.
In front of Hanamjeongga, Lee Mu-myeong and Seol-hwa stopped for a moment and took a deep breath.
Imoo-myeong felt like he was facing an important mission.
Seol-hwa felt like she was about to commit a murder that was close to impossible.
My heart was pounding that hard.
Although they each had different resolutions, their shining eyes were the same.
Sulwha took a deep breath and said.
“Your Majesty, have you packed your Hancheol luggage well?”
Imoo-myeong answered while checking the Hancheol box in his hand.
“Yes, it’s Seolhwa.”
“Then I should go in now, Your Majesty.”
Seolhwa bowed her head slightly.
Imoo-myeong was shocked at the sight.
Now I had to act perfectly like Hanbin.
In fact, Imoo-myeong was nervous on two counts. One was whether there would be anyone in Hanam Jeongga who would recognize him.
But, all my worries about that were blown away.
I checked through Tokyo before coming, and the clothes were like wings, and their old appearance was nowhere to be found.
In addition, he changed his hairstyle and became the perfect Hanbin.
If I went back to Habukpangga like this, even Pangga would believe that I was Hanbin.
The next thing I was worried about was whether Seolhwa would do well.
Now, I can put that worry aside.
I knew he was hiding his true colors, but I didn’t know he would act so naturally like this.
As Imoo-myeong stood in front of the main gate of Hanamjeongga, Seol-hwa ran to the guard warrior.
“Hello, sir. We are from Habukpangga.”
The guard turned his head at Seolhwa’s greeting.
“Habukpangga?”
The startled guard ran to his colleague a few steps behind and whispered.
The fellow guardsman ran inside in an instant.
After a while.
Jeong Hwi-ji of Hanam Jeongga has appeared.
Jeong Hui-ji, who saw the two, narrowed his eyes and slowly opened his mouth.
“You’ve worked hard, Master Sa. But where have the warriors of the Thousand-Li Pyo State gone?”
“A lot happened on the way here. But I kept the Cheongmyeonghwan.”
“Oh, we should have gone out to meet you earlier. It was my fault that you suffered.”
Imoo-myeong barely managed to hide his expression.
It was because I knew that Jeong Hui-ji’s words were lies.
Because of them, he risked his life to escort Cheongmyeonghwan, but even after entering Hanam, he could not find any trace of Hanam Jeongga.
“No. Isn’t doing something for the sake of the Hanam Jeongga family for the sake of Kangho?”
Contrary to expectations, Imoo-myeong continued speaking as if honey was on his tongue.
Everything happened just as Hanbin had ordered.
Jeong Hui-ji answered.
“Come in quickly. Your father’s condition is getting worse and he needs medical attention right away.”
As Jeong Hwi-ji took the lead, urging him with his hand, Lee Moo-myeong, who was following behind, furrowed his brows.
I had a feeling something was wrong.
According to Imoo-myeong’s calculations, Hanbin should have arrived here two days ago.
And I should have secretly checked the details of the Hanam Jeongga family and finished the treatment.
But Jeong Hui-ji said that the situation was urgent.
Imoo-myeong’s heart began to beat faster.
It wasn’t that I was worried about the Hanam Jeongga family, but rather Hanbin.
Hanbin was a close friend and lord who shared friendship through swords.
Even if things went wrong, Hanbin had to be safe.
Imoo-myeong glanced to the side.
There, Seol-hwa was walking nonchalantly with a bouncy gait.
Imoo-myeong thought that he lacked faith in his lord.
Seolhwa trusts her lord so much, so how can she not trust Hanbin?
Imoo-myeong clenched his teeth so that they couldn’t be seen.
Jeong Hui-ji, who had been walking slowly ahead, stopped walking.
Imoo-myeong glanced up and looked at the signboard.
As expected, it was the right place for the head of the household.
Kwaeryongjeon (Hall of Fleeting Dragons).
It is the most splendid building in Hanamjeongga and is the residence of the head of the household.
The symbols of Hanam Jeongga, a sharp sword and an auspicious dragon, were engraved on the pillars.
Jeong Hui-ji extended his hand.
“Give me the Cheongmyeong-hwan.”
“Here it is.”
As soon as Imoo-myeong handed over the bundle, the congressman came running.
At that moment, Imoo-myeong barely managed to hold back a scream.
This is because the member of parliament who came running was not Han Bin or Jang Ja-myeong.
So where is the lord?
And what is this ominous feeling?
Imoo-myeong barely managed to control his expression.
The congressman who ran over received the chest containing the Cheongmyeonghwan instead.
