Episode 150: The Emperor of the Sunset Sword, Jo Gwan-seung

Heuk Sang-ju had an embarrassed expression.

The merchants jumped up from their seats in surprise. They recognized the Ten-Day Blood Guest.

“Huh…! Si, the ten-year-old bloodthirsty king…!”

Merchants who can’t hide their embarrassment.

Gu Hui said in a cool tone.

“The rats were plotting a plot here.”

The merchants gulped.

In the meantime, Geomseon sighed upon seeing the upper part of Daeheung Sangdan.

‘Oh my… That guy was involved in this too… .’

The owner of Daeheung Sangdan was a guy I had known for a long time.

Daeheung Sangdanju also checked the inspection results.

‘Hey, what’s the sword, sir?’

Why is the swordsman with the king?

When Gu Hui reached out to the swordsman to condemn the men, Geom Seon spoke hurriedly.

“Okay, wait a minute….”

A phrase that stops movement.

“Why are you doing that?”

“What are you going to do with them?”

“You tried to kill me, so I plan on doing the same thing to you. I’m sure you know that that’s the law of the jungle.”

Geomseon said with an embarrassed look.

“I have a connection with one of them. Can’t you just put the matter in my hands just this once…? I beg you….”

“Even if it was a request from my senior, I can’t do that.”

“…….”

The head of the Ho Kyung Sangdan, who had been watching, tried hard to suppress his fear and said.

“Wang Daehyeop, I apologize for ordering you to be killed… It will never happen again….”

Gu Hui was resolute.

“It’s already too late.”

When the apology did not work, Ho Kyung Sang Dan changed it to a warning.

“If you kill us, you will surely regret it….”

“regret?”

“Our merchant association has friendly relations with the Gaecheon Inspection Office. If we kill them, the Gaecheon Inspection Office will never stay still.”

Gaecheon Inspection Gate.

It is the strongest force in Fujian Province and is a sect of the Zhengshiji clan.

Taesangmunju is one of the five Mujes, which are titles representing the Jeongpa and Jeongsaji.

Gu Hui answered without wavering.

“Then the Gaecheon Checkpoint will also be destroyed.”

When Gu Hui did not budge even after hearing the name of Gaecheon Inspection, the merchants of the Chamber of Commerce could not hide their bewilderment.

It was just then.

– Hey, hey…

An old man came into the room.

He had a long black beard and carried a sword on his waist.

He was the Supreme Master of the Gaecheon Swordsmanship, and one of the Five Emperors of Martial Arts, the title representing the Jeongpa and Jeongsaji, and the Sunset Swordsman, Jo Gwan-seung.

The reason he is here is because he was invited to the Chamber of Commerce.

The Sunset Inspection Committee has maintained friendly relations with the Chamber of Commerce for several decades.

The reason why the merchants’ association didn’t worry about messing with the Ten-Day Bloodthirsty Guest was because they trusted the Sunset Sword Master, whom they called the Elder.

The merchants of the Chamber of Commerce breathed a sigh of relief at the appearance of the Sunset Inspection System.

The corners of Ho Kyung Sang Dan’s mouth slightly went up.

‘Now that you have appeared, our safety is guaranteed.’

As soon as he entered the room, Nakilgeomje recognized Geomseon and was startled.

‘Why is the inspector here…?’

The sunset inspection was an example.

“Hello, senior.”

Even for Nakilgeomje, Geomseon was a senior by a long time. They met about 17 years ago.

I also learned about the sunset inspection system.

“Oh, aren’t you the head of the Gaecheon Inspection Center?”

“I am no longer the head of the clan. I have passed the position of head of the clan to my disciple and am now stepping back from the front lines.”

“Oh, I see. But why are you here?”

“I came here after receiving an invitation from the merchants’ association. I also came to see the Gyeongcheon Grand Exhibition.”

The sunset swordsman’s gaze turned to Gu Hui. The sunset swordsman took the lottery ticket.

“Nice to meet you. I am Jo Gwan-seung, the Supreme Master of Gaecheon Swordsmanship. In the martial arts world, I am known by the name of Nakil Sword Master.”

Gu Hui took the lottery.

“I am the King. I am known by the title of Ten-Day Bloodthirsty Knight.”

“But… I happened to come into the room and overheard that they were going to destroy the Gaecheon Inspection Clan… Did I hear that wrong?”

“You heard me wrong. If Gaecheon Inspection Center tries to stop me, they will pay a price.”

The gaze of the sunset inspector became cold.

“Why did you come here?”

Because he had just appeared, the Nakil Sword Master didn’t know why Geomseon and Guhui had appeared here.

Gu Hui explained the situation in a calm tone. After hearing the whole explanation, Nak Il-geomje asked Ho Kyung Sang Danju with a slightly angry expression.

“Did you really instigate the Black Knight to kill the King?”

“…I’m sorry, sir….”

The merchants of Hogyeongsangdan and the merchants of the merchant association bow their heads with shameless eyes.

Sunset Inspection was filled with anger.

Why on earth would you do such a crazy thing!

I could guess that it was because of the money on the black market.

The sunset inspection said.

“The one who deserves the apology is not me, but the Great Swordsman. You should kneel down and apologize to the Great Swordsman immediately.”

“Are you telling me to get down on my knees…?”

In the midst of all this, the head of the Ho Kyung Sang Dan clan was dizzy as he showed off his pride.

Even if I bang my head on the floor and beg for forgiveness, I can’t be sure that the king will tolerate it…

Nakilgeomje hoped that this would end without a hitch. No matter how much he had done something hateful, Hogyeongsangdanju was someone he cherished.

It was also the source of funding for the Gaecheon Inspection.

“Do it now!”

The merchants’ association members, frightened by the sun-dawn inspection, knelt on the floor and apologized to Gu-hui.

“Oh, please forgive me, King Daehyeop….”

“We made a mistake… Please let go of your anger….”

“sorry….”

Gu-Hui let out a sneer.

I could tell that their apology wasn’t truly because they felt sorry for me. They were just doing it because the Sunset Inspection Order told them to.

Gu-Hui spoke softly.

“Then I’ll give you a chance.”

“Ma, please speak….”

“Cut off your wrists one by one. Then I will end this without killing you. I promise.”

Gu-Hui intends to test their sincerity. If they are truly sorry, they will cut off their own wrists.

The merchants’ faces hardened.

Sunset inspection has begun.

“I apologize like this. Please calm down, King Daehyeop.”

“It’s a problem that can be solved by cutting off one wrist. If I cut off my wrist and save my life, wouldn’t it be a good deal?”

“…….”

Since he knew Gu-Hui’s position, Nak-Il-Geom-Je couldn’t say anything carelessly.

If I were in their shoes and they were trying to kill someone, I would have killed everyone involved.

‘Yeah. If it ends with just cutting my wrist… If nothing happens then… I guess I’ll have to cut it.’

Sunset inspection was thought to be a way to minimize damage.

The sunset swordsman drew his sword and said.

– Sreung…

“Then I will cut off their wrists. Is that okay?”

The merchants’ faces turned pale.

Even the elder Nakilgeomje, whom I trusted, is taking the side of the king… .

Gu-Hui shook his head.

“No. What would be the point if you cut off their wrists? I want to see them cut off their own wrists. If they truly repented, they wouldn’t mind cutting off their own wrists. I want to verify their sincerity.”

As he spoke like that, a faint smile appeared on Gu-Hui’s lips.

Sunset Inspection was speechless. I thought that it was indeed a Sapa warrior.

The merchants knelt quietly with stern expressions.

When they didn’t respond, Gu-Hui sat on his chair, folded his arms, and watched.

“I’ll give you half an hour. If you don’t cut your wrists within that time, you’ll die. Decide whether you’ll cut your own wrists and survive, or lose your life.”

The merchants simply could not cut off their own wrists. It was by no means an easy task to cut off one’s own wrists.

In fact, the reason the merchants held on without cutting off their wrists was because they trusted the old man of the sunset inspection.

They believed that if that bastard Wang Jeong tried to kill them, the old man would step forward.

‘If the elders step forward, they can save both their hands and their lives…’

‘Is it really necessary to lose my wrist? The old man will stop it… .’

The merchants thought to themselves,

The anxious-looking swordsman, Lee Ga-Heum, sent a message to his acquaintance, the head of Daeheung Sangdan.

[What are you doing? Are you trying to hold out? Are you holding out because you believe in the sunset inspection?]

Daeheung Sangdanju nodded.

The swordsman sent the message with a frustrated face.

[Huh… I’m so frustrated… Even if it’s the Sunset Sword Festival, it’s no match for the King. If you don’t cut off your wrist right now, you’ll definitely lose your life. Please listen to me and cut off your wrist. I’m saying this for your own good.]

It was a swordsman who had witnessed with his own eyes the skill of the deep sword displayed by Gu Hui in the black room earlier.

Even if I am a sunset swordsman, how can I defeat the master of Cheonwicheon who uses the deep sword?

To be honest, even if he and the Sunset Swordsman joined forces, they wouldn’t be able to defeat the king. But the merchants were acting bravely, so he couldn’t help but sigh.

Daeheung Sangdanju was very anxious.

When the swordsman said something like that, I began to worry that he might really be killed by the king.

Meanwhile, the merchants held on with determined expressions.

Should I, like them, believe in the sunset inspection system and endure it?

Or should I listen to the old man’s words and cut off my wrist?

Daeheung Sangdanju, who had been thinking deeply, finally made a decision.

‘If the swordsman says something like that… there must be something… there can’t be anything to do… .’

It was a gamble.

If you fail, you will be the only member of the merchant council who will lose your wrist.

But once he had made up his mind, he had to act. Daeheung Sangdanju decided to take a gamble.

Dahung Sangdanju, who got up from his seat.

He takes a dagger out of his bosom.

‘It’s too… small… and the blade is too dull to cut my wrist… .’

It would take a considerable amount of time and pain to cut through to the bone.

The Nakilgeomje, who had been watching, pulled out his sword with a pitiful expression and handed it over to the Daeheungsangdanju.

– Sreung…

“Write this….”

It is the sword of the Sunset Sword, which can be called a famous sword. That sword is enough to cut flesh and bone.

The owner of Daeheung Sangdan received the sword.

“Thank you, sir….”

The swordsman sent a telegram.

[Good idea… I’m so glad… .]

Unlike the relieved Geomseon, Daeheungsangdanju was a deathly taste.

Daeheung Sangdanju is resting his arms on the table, sweat dripping down his face. In one hand, he is holding the sword that Nakilgeomje gave him.

The merchants spoke with puzzled faces.

“So, what are you doing now…?”

“Seo, are you really going to cut off my wrist?”

“Don’t do that! There’s no need to cut it!”

“Wake up! You’re not in your right mind!”

The Daeheung Sangdanju, with a determined expression, swung his sword. The blade pierced his wrist.

– Swish! Swish!

“Khaaa …

Blood spurted out with a scream.

Because he did not know swordsmanship, the blade could not cut through the bone and was stuck in the flesh.

He cuts his own wrist with trembling hands, tears streaming down his face.

– Crunch… Crunch… Crunch…

“Turn it off… Turn it off… Turn it off….”

Blood gushed out and Daeheung Sangdanju’s body trembled.

The faces of the merchants watching it were as white as a sheet of paper. It was truly horrifying.

“Oh, crazy….”

“I’m going crazy….”

The sound of flesh and bones being cut continued, and soon the severed sword fell to the floor.

– Toouk…

Blood spurted out from the cut surface of his wrist.

The swordsman quickly shot a blast of wind to acupoint the wound and stop the bleeding.

Gu Hui, who saw the hand of Daeheung Sangdanju that had fallen to the floor, spoke softly in a calm tone.

“passing.”

Only then did the inspector feel relieved.

The swordsman said to the owner of Daeheung Sangdan.

“Good job. You did a great job….”

Daeheung Sangdanju was unconscious.

The black monk, who had been crying, approached Gu-hui and asked him.

“Can I take you to the doctor’s office?”

Gu-Hui nodded.

“It’s a pass, so do whatever you want.”

The black merchant carrying the Daeheung Sangdanju on his back hurriedly left the room.

Before I knew it, the table and the floor around it were soaked with the blood of the Daeheung Sangdan owner.

The merchants in the Chamber of Commerce were silent.

They were even more reluctant to cut off their wrists. After seeing the horrible sight just now, how could they do the same thing without losing their minds?

The swordsman and the sunset swordsman continued to persuade the merchants, but it was no use.

Eventually, the half hour that Gu Hui had spoken of passed.

– Swish

Gu-Hui got up from his seat. His hand grabbed the bottle.

The sunset inspector who saw that spoke hurriedly.

“Okay, wait a minute!”

When the sunset inspection began, the merchants breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to themselves, ‘As expected!’

Gu-Hui’s gaze turned towards the sunset sword.

“What now?”

“Are you really going to kill them?”

“I told you.”

“I have a favor to ask of you and a suggestion.”

“Tell me.”

“I would like to request a favor from you. Please accept it.”

“suddenly?”

The sunset inspector said with serious eyes.

“If I win, forgive them. If I lose, kill them.”

“Are you saying that you will stop me in order to protect them? Do you think you can defeat me?”

“Honestly, I can’t guarantee it. Who in the world can guarantee victory against an absolute master who has advanced to the finals of the Gyeongcheon Grand Championship?”

“My way has no mercy. I will die. Still, will you fight for them?”

“I will fight with the determination to die.”

Sunset Inspection was seriously applying for the military service as an unmanned unit.

It wasn’t a tactic to avoid a fight.

“I accept your request for a military post as an unmanned unit.”

Nakilgeomje thought that the only way to stop Guhwi was to fight and win.

The merchants had no doubts about the victory of the sunset inspection.

If the sunset inspection wins, everything is over.

In the end, only the Daeheung Sangdan shareholder who cut off his own wrist suffered losses.

The swordsman’s thoughts were different.

The swordsman looked at the sunset swordsman with regret.

‘Look… the monarchy is not our opponent… .’

Geomseon sighed at his junior’s reckless challenge.

After the decision was made, Gu-hui, Geom-seon, Nak-il-geom-je, and the merchants of the merchants’ association went out to the inner court.
