Reaper of the Drifting Moon

Episode 556

Pyowol asked Salno.

“What about the damage?”

“Eight are dead and seven are wounded.”

The Black Slayer took no damage.

The victims were ordinary assassins.

Their killing method was not as sophisticated as the black killing squad. Because of that, the track was caught while approaching the target.

Those who killed Hong Ye-seol or the Black Slayer in the brain could not even scream. It took her breath away in an instant.

However, ordinary assassins couldn’t completely stop breathing, so the warriors screamed.

Because of that, the damage was great.

Salno lowered his head and continued.

“Still, I’m glad it ended like this. If I hadn’t made a decision, the damage would have been greater.”

“They should have known by now. That we are not such easy opponents.”

Hong Ye-seol smiled and approached Pyo-wol.

Pyowol nodded and looked around at the assassins.

He was burned even though he was covered in flame retardant cloth and hid in the soil. At least, since he had practiced the great law, if he had put the bamboo tube out of the soil and breathed, his lungs would have been cooked.

I could have just quietly escaped.

It would have been nice if the flames and the martial arts warriors had passed and then got out without a sound. However, the reason they didn’t do that was to show Dokgo Hwang what would happen if he touched them.

If you touch this side, you need to let them know that they will also see blood. so it doesn’t look shallow

Knowing that fact, Salno also agreed to Pyowol’s crazy plan.

Salno asked cautiously.

“What would you like to do? Shall we go right away?”

“no!”

“How?”

“Yesyeol brain!”

Pyowol looked at the two of them.

“yes!”

“Tell me.”

Hong Ye-seol and Noe-an answered politely.

Pyowol gave them an order.

“The two of you are to assassinate two key figures among the martial arts leaders. Dokgo Hwang should also be warned.”

“all right.”

“I will follow orders.”

A smile appeared on both of their lips.

If Pyo-wol had suggested hiding in a safe house, he would have been rather disappointed.

It was the law of Kang-ho to give back more than what was suffered.

In the process of escaping, it was said that Mugeomryun was given a shot, but that alone was not enough.

I had to show what would happen if I touched the assassins hastily.

It was a dangerous mission that could lead to death if not done wrong.

Nevertheless, the two willingly accepted Pyowol’s command.

The Black Slaughter Corps took the reaction of the two people for granted, but the regular assassins looked tired.

It’s obviously the same assassin, but it’s because the miasma couldn’t even compare.

‘crazy!’

‘Are you going to counterattack right away?’

They knew that their supreme leader, Pyo-wol, was the greatest assassin of Gangho, and that he had a more independent mind than Sagal. But I really didn’t know it would be so monotonous.

Neither the two people who gave orders nor followed them seemed insane.

Salno laughed at what he liked so much.

Hong Ye-seol and Noe-an immediately left after taking possession of Pyo-wol.

Pyowol said to Salno.

“We are going to the safe house.”

“I will guide you.”

Salno took the lead, holding a staff.

After that, the Pyowol and the Black Slayer assassins followed.

“Threub!”

Cheolwoong Deung looked at the colorful streets and spat out abusive language.

He was once fearless.

There was a time when everything on this street belonged to him.

It seems like it was only yesterday that I could live without shame as an ark in the Blood Room, but now it has become a distant memory of the past.

Even if it was a snake’s head, it was good at that time.

At least back then, I didn’t have to look at anyone.

Many masters entered Lake Poyang, which became a fierce battleground for strong players. There was hardly anyone weaker than him walking on this street.

Because of the situation, Deung Cheol-woong kept feeling that his body and mind were shrinking.

I didn’t know how I got into this situation.

“Shit!”

Deung Cheol-woong grumbled and went into the inn.

Gaekjan was a newly created place while Deung Cheol-woong was tied up by Geumcheonhoe.

Naturally, the owner of the inn did not recognize Deung Cheol-ung.

To be honest, I wouldn’t have cared too much if I had known.

This is because the streets of Poyang Lake are overflowing with people stronger than Deung Cheol-ung.

Foxes were king when there were no tigers, but no one cared about foxes in a place overflowing with tigers.

“Well, it’s nice that no one recognizes it.”

Deung Cheol-ung tried to console himself and sat down.

he shouted at the owner.

“Hey master!”

“yes!”

“Bring here a simple side dish and a bottle of bamboo leaf syrup.”

“All right.”

The owner of the inn did not approach and answered from a distance. I didn’t like that look, but I couldn’t take out my anger like before, so I only wrinkled my face.

‘By the way, what kind of guys killed a strong man like Yonghasang?’

As soon as he left Geumcheonhoe, he unleashed his subordinates on the streets to collect information flowing downstairs.

Even though Geumcheonhoe and Eunryeonhoe divided the area around Poyang Lake, they could not completely take control of the bottom.

The emotions of the bottom and the information flowing from it can never be grasped by people who are not familiar with the bottom like Deung Cheol-woong and his subordinates.

Most of all, the various personal connections that the Blood Medicine Room had built from the past still remained.

If you go through them, you will surely get useful information.

“Anyway, what are these bastards doing that aren’t coming yet?”

Deung Cheol-woong grumbled, remembering his subordinates scattered all over the street.

He said so, but he knew that his subordinates would not return easily.

Since it had been a long time since I had been outside, it was clear that I would release the desire that I had been forced to endure.

Some of them will have a drink at the inn, while others will find Giru and satisfy their desire.

He had no intention of blaming his subordinates, as he would find Giru and embrace the gisaengs when he finished drinking.

It didn’t matter what kind of nonsense you did as long as you asked for the necessary information.

“Here are drinks and snacks.”

At that time, the owner of the guesthouse approached with a tray full of wine and side dishes.

Deung Cheol-ung stared at the face of the owner of the inn as he put the alcohol and snacks on his table.

Sensing his gaze, the owner of the inn asked cautiously.

“Why is that?”

“I do not know?”

“yes?”

“Fuck! I don’t know either. The world has gotten a lot better.”

“What are you talking about?”

“it’s okay! Go see.”

“yes!”

The owner of the inn withdrew with a puzzled expression.

Deung Cheol-woong, who was left alone, nervously poured a drink into his glass.

The fact that he, who once reigned as the absolute ruler of Lake Poyang, had to drink alone like this made him angry. However, I couldn’t run amok or vent my anger like I used to.

Deung Cheol-woong drank the liquor from the glass.

After drinking three cups in a row, the anger eased a little.

“Big!”

It was when he wiped the alcohol from his mouth with his sleeve.

“You drink coolly.”

“huh?”

Deung Cheol-woong frowned at the sudden voice. It was because it was clear what he was saying by looking at himself.

‘Some sireobae bastard…’

Even if it wasn’t, it was a car that made me feel good.

Deung Cheol-woong turned his head in the direction the voice came from.

Eyes met with the owner of the voice.

For a moment, Deung Cheol-woong regretted turning his head.

“Hehe! Gnome. Your face looks pretty rough.”

It was an old man who looked like a wolf.

He had thick gray hair and a long beard that covered his chest. A gray uniform that seemed to have been worn dozens of times. Unusually, he was carrying two swords crosswise on his back.

The old man’s eyes were the wolf itself.

The moment I met those eyes, my hamstrings went numb.

I thought this would be how I would feel if I ran into a wolf in the plains naked.

I had never felt anything like this even at the Geumcheonhoe.

Deung Cheol-woong asked cautiously.

“Who are you?”

“Who are you?”

“The small person is called Deung Cheol-ung.”

“Deung Cheol-woong?”

“I am the owner of a small breakwater called the Blood Room.”

“You mean the owner of a clan? That’s great. Pour a drink into my glass.”

The old man held out a drink to Deung Cheol-woong.

Deng Cheol-ung did not dare to refuse the old man’s request.

He filled the old man’s glass with wine. Then the old man drank a glass at once.

“nice! Feel so good. What is this drink?”

“It’s called bamboo leaf cheong.”

“Good! I will have to eat this guy from now on.”

I looked at the bottle in Deung Cheol-woong’s hand with an expression that he liked the old man.

“I’m glad you like it. If you do, drink this drink. Then the small man is over…”

Deung Cheol-woong set the bottle down in front of the old man and tried to leave naturally. However, I couldn’t even lift a finger as I felt a strong pressure as if my body had fallen into a swamp.

Deung Cheol-woong’s complexion was pale.

I guessed that he was an unusual old man, but I didn’t expect that he would be a master who had reached such a great level.

‘At this level, it is higher than Confucius Jang Ho-yeon.’

Jang Ho-yeon of Ugeom Lodge was also a master that Kang-ho recognized.

There were few opponents among the younger generation, so it was safe to say that he was a master at the top of the river. However, even Jang Ho-yeon could not entangle himself without lifting a finger.

‘Who the hell is this old man

?

He prided himself on being more resilient than anyone else because he had thick bones at the bottom of the river, but he couldn’t even breathe properly in front of the old man’s face and eyes.

I felt like a rabbit in front of a wolf.

The old man opened his mouth.

“Who dared to go? No one can leave without my permission.”

“But I…”

“Me?”

“Because he belongs to the Geumcheonhoe…”

“Geumcheonhoe? You mean that group of kids?”

“That’s right.”

“Hehe! You don’t have to worry about those little things. You’ll just hit my stomach well. It will be much better for you that way.”

Deung Cheol-woong swallowed dry saliva at the old man’s mad words.

“Ho, could you possibly know the name of Daehyeop’s great name?”

“Are you curious about my name?”

“haha! Wouldn’t you like to do your best to know who you are? lol!”

Deung Cheol-woong laughed with a servile expression.

The old man stared at Deung Cheol-woong’s face. Deung Cheol-woong did not dare to meet the old man’s gaze and turned his head to avoid it. Then the old man smiled and opened his mouth.

“My name is King Gu Jin.”

“Old… King Jin. Could it be that you are the king?”

Deung Cheol-woong’s eyes widened.

I opened my eyes so wide that it felt as if the corners of my eyes would tear.

In fact, Deung Cheol-woong thought his heart would sink.

The eight constellations that shine most brilliantly in the river.

Some of them died or were defeated by Pyo-wol, and their reputations were somewhat faded, but they were still top-notch warriors.

Although King Gujin was in the last seat of the Palseongjwa, that did not mean that his martial arts were the weakest among the Eight Constellations.

It was King Gujin who wandered around the river without joining any power for the rest of his life.

king of wolves.

He has acted arbitrarily all his life and fought so many times that he earned the nickname King Nangwang.

Yet he is still alive.

because it was that strong.

His rough temper and cruel hands were feared by everyone in Jianghu.

‘Shit! Of course, it’s a nangwang…’

Deung Cheol-woong thought it was a mistake.

I don’t know why the king was interested in me, but once I got caught in his hands, it was impossible to get out smoothly.

King Gu Jin asked.

“Did you say it was the Ark of the Chamber of Blood?”

“yes!”

“Isn’t it true that the blood room is an indigenous clan of Poyang Lake?”

“That’s right.”

“Hehe! If you do, you will understand the situation around Lake Poyang well.”

“yes!”

Deung Cheol-woong wondered what King Gu Jin was trying to say with such lengthy words.

King Gujin pointed to the two swords behind his back and said.

“These guys are called fear and gold. It is a famous sword that will not exist again in the world.”

“ah!”

“I’m looking for a sword of a similar level to this. I’d like to know if anyone in Lake Poyang owns such a sword.”
